Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 55 Rent both rooms
While riding a tricycle along the pawnshop street, Wu Yuansheng asked the residents who had not yet moved out where there were houses for rent nearby.

They said there must be no more in the demolition area, but there should still be some near the river embankment below.

Following the direction they told him, he walked towards the river embankment.

When he went down to the river embankment, he found that there was also a long cement road here. There was a teahouse at the intersection, where many elderly people played cards and drank tea.

Looking forward along the road, there are many shanty houses on one side of the road, next to the river embankment.

He knew that these places would become green belts along the river in the future.

However, nothing will change here in the past two years.

Renting a house here is enough time, but in the demolition area over there, the expropriation period for houses is only about one year.

Riding a tricycle along this long cement road, he soon discovered a wooden sign at the door of a red brick house that read "House for Rent."

The houses here are very small, just like a kitchen. There is no place to park the car, and there is not much room for things. He does not plan to rent it.

Looking forward along the road, he found several places for renting houses, but they were not very good, either on the second or third floor, or too crowded with too many people.

Of course, these houses can actually be rented if people only live there and don’t store their things and drive their tricycles, but now he mainly puts his things there.

After walking a short distance further, he saw the words "House for Rent" written on the door of a two-floor house connected together.

The words were written on a piece of white paper and affixed to a hanging plywood sign. The paper looked new and there was a phone number underneath.

He stopped the tricycle and observed the two houses first.

The house only has one floor, but the roof of the board house is built with about half a meter of bricks, and is covered with some asbestos, probably for thermal insulation and waterproofing.

The gates of the two houses, one is a folding door that opens to both sides, and the other is an iron door about one meter long.

There seems to be a small yard behind the house, and the yard wall is connected to the wall of the house.

After looking at it, he felt that the house was very good. If he rented it, he could put things in the house and put some beautiful flowers and plants in the yard behind.

Without any further hesitation, he picked up the phone, looked at the number on the paper, and started making calls.

After the call was dialed, the call was quickly connected, and the person who answered the phone was a woman's voice.

He directly talked about renting a house, and the woman asked him to wait for ten minutes, and she came over soon.

I hung up the phone and looked at the time. It was 13:52. After waiting for about 16 minutes, which was 14:08, a woman came over on a two-wheeled electric bicycle.

This is a woman who looks to be about 40 years old. She is very fashionable and beautiful.

"Do you want to rent a house?" the woman asked him after coming over.

"Yes! I rent a house, are you the landlord?"

"I am the landlord. Let me open the house for you to see first. This house is very simple. There is nothing in it except a bed and a few stools."

Hearing the woman say that there were only beds and a few stools in the house, he felt a little strange and thought to himself: "Has it been rented out to women who were doing business in the past?"

He glanced at her doubtfully.

"Don't get me wrong, my house has not been rented to the women in the alley above the river embankment before. There are no services down here, you can ask about it!"

The woman saw Wu Yuansheng looking at her with some confusion. She might have thought of something, so she explained it this way.

"It's okay, I believe this! If there are those women here, I saw them just now."

There really isn't one here. It's more than a mile ahead, near the riverside of the bustling square, where he used to take a bath.

But there is still a certain distance from here.

“My house was previously lent to a relative as a warehouse, and he usually kept some things in it.

He went out of town to do business some time ago, so this place became vacant. I only posted the "House for Rent" information yesterday! "

While they were talking, the woman opened the doors of both houses.

Wu Yuansheng took a look at the conditions of the two houses. One house was about 25 square meters.

There was nothing in the double-open folding room. The other room only had a wooden bed and three armchairs. There were no quilts or other items on the bed.But this is good, he can put more things!
"There is a small yard at the back with a kitchen and bathroom. If you want to grow vegetables, you can grow some vegetables in the yard."

The landlord went to the back door of a house, opened the door, and said to him again.

"Really, that's good, but I don't have time to grow vegetables. If you have free time, it would be nice to get a few pots of flowers and plants and put them there!"

While he was talking, he walked out of the back door and took a look at the situation in the small yard.

The yard is about 30 square meters, with a small kitchen of about 6 square meters and a bathroom of about 4 square meters next to each other.

There is soil in other places, which are empty.

"Are you renting one room or both?" the landlord asked him after seeing the basic conditions of the house.

"I rent both rooms. Can you tell me how much it costs per year?"

He didn't ask how much it cost per month. If you rent it, you will definitely have to rent it for a longer period of time. If you rent it for a year, there will be some discounts.

"Two rooms are rented out together for 5000 yuan a year, no bargaining! Water and electricity bills are not included!"

The rent price she mentioned is considered the basic price for renting a house in this city. A single room only costs 200 to 300 yuan a month.

"Okay! That's 5000 yuan, but I don't have that much cash in my hand. You can go to the bank with me."

After Wu Yuansheng finished speaking, he began to take the things on the tricycle into the house.

"Let's take a look at the water and electricity meter in the house and write it down. I won't be here for a while. You withdraw the money and pay the rent, and I'll just give you the door key!"

After he finished unloading his things, the landlord said to him again.

The two checked the water and electricity levels, took photos with their mobile phones, and went to the bank together.

Wu Yuansheng won 5000 yuan in cash.

The landlord asked him to take out his ID card to register the information, and wrote him a receipt.

When paying the rent, she paid a deposit of 200 yuan, and she handed him the keys to both houses.

While chatting, he also learned that the landlady's surname was Zhao.

"I have some furniture that I will put there, but when I don't rent the house, I will definitely take it away. Let me tell you this."

"It's okay, you can put as many things as you want, as long as you can fit them in!"

The two chatted for a few words and then left.

When passing by a large supermarket, he bought a bottle of spray disinfectant, a glue bucket, a washbasin, and two towels.

Wu Yuansheng plans to improve the hygiene there.

Although the landlord said that no business woman had lived there, he felt that he would sometimes live there, so there was nothing wrong with disinfecting it.

When passing by a shop selling farm tools and daily miscellaneous goods, he stopped the car and bought a shovel, and asked the shop owner to match it with a wooden shovel handle.

He planned to dig up Polygonum multiflorum for this purpose. Since he had a yard to store things, he could dig up Polygonum multiflorum and put it in the yard.

Returning to the house he just rented, he first took the pot of orchid that he had placed inside the house to the yard behind, and then poured some water.

Now put it here, Tai Sui Shui won't be used on it for a while.

Next, he sprayed the floor, walls, and bed of the house with disinfectant spray. If there was any excess, he sprayed the kitchen and bathroom as well.

After spraying, after a while, he started cleaning the house and kitchen again.

There used to be a broom and dustpan in the house, so he took them and used them directly.

After cleaning, Wu Yuansheng felt that living here looked much better than living at the car battery factory.

There is a kitchen, so when the weather gets cooler, you can cook and cook hot pot at night.

Checking the time, it was already past three o'clock, so he took the shovel and went to the place where He Shou Wu was found.
