Today is the day to return to Songjiang by plane. Yang Ming woke up very early, looked at Lan Ling who was sleeping soundly like a kitten beside him, patted her on the back and shouted: "Lan Ling, get up quickly, we are catching a plane today!"
"Catch the plane?" Lan Ling asked in a daze. Although he usually woke up earlier than Yang Ming, it was only after three o'clock in the morning, and it was the most sleepy time: "Can't you sleep a little longer?"
"Okay, when the time comes, you can make your own plane and go back, I'll go first!" Yang Ming said with a smile.
"I'm up." Lan Ling suddenly sat up and rubbed her eyes.
Yang Ming was a little amused: "Go wash your face and brush your teeth, and go to sleep on the plane."
"Oh, good." Lan Ling didn't wear any clothes to sleep, so she just walked to the bathroom naked. In front of Yang Ming, there was nothing to shy away from.
Yang Ming kindly hugged Lan Ling back to the bed, ruthlessly. . . It was an impulse, but time was running out, so I could only think about it.
After simply packing up his luggage, Yang Ming scanned the entire room with his perspective eyes. He was afraid that there might be something missing in the corner.
Suddenly, his gaze stayed in a corner, and Yang Ming's brows couldn't help but frown...
After Lan Ling packed himself up, Yang Ming went to wash his face and brush his teeth. After everything was ready, Yang Ming left the room with Lan Ling with his luggage on his back. Zhang Bing and Zhang Jiefang lived in the same room this time. With the lesson learned from last time, even if Zhang Jiefang was killed, he wouldn't look for the lady anymore.
It happened that Zhang Bin and the others also came out, and the four of them checked out the room, and a waiter came to check the facilities in the room. Yang Ming carefully looked at the waiter who came to clean his room, and remembered his appearance in his heart.
There was nothing to say all the way, but Lan Ling's residence in Songjiang became a problem, so we can't lead her away directly, can we? Although I and she already have a husband and wife relationship, things must be done step by step, and my parents have to accept it bit by bit.
It seems that he can only find a house for Lan Ling first, and then try to convince his parents.
Originally, Yang Ming's parents were going to pick them up at the airport, but because Lan Ling was there, it was difficult to explain, so Yang Ming told his parents not to come, and Zhang Jiefang's driver would take them back.
In order to arrange for Lan Ling, Yang Ming called his parents when he arrived in Songjiang and told them that he would go to Zhang Bin's house first and then go back at night. Anyway, Yang's father and Yang's mother both had to go to work, so they didn't care.
In the afternoon, Yang Ming brought Lan Ling and Zhang Bin to a real estate agency.
"Who rents a house?" The real estate agencies in Songjiang haven't formed that kind of chain business model, and they are all small private businesses. Most of the operators are middle-aged aunts. The aunt in front of her looked suspiciously at the very close man and woman in front of her.
"She." Yang Ming pointed to Lan Ling: "Sometimes I also live there."
"What's the relationship between you two?" Auntie prefers to meddle in other people's business.
"Boyfriend and girlfriend." Yang Ming replied.
"Boyfriend and girlfriend? Are you adults?" The aunt curled her lips.
"You are checking the household registration!" Zhang Bing on the side became a little impatient: "Do you want to do business? If we don't, we will go to someone else's house!"
"Hey, don't go." The aunt just has nothing to do, and of course she has business to do: "Do you have an ID card?" She needs to make sure that the three children are not here to make trouble.
"Yes." Yang Ming didn't want to spend much time with her, so he explained to himself: "We are students of Songjiang University, and my girlfriend's family is from another place. I want to rent a house nearby to accompany me. Please help me find out." Is there any suitable one!"
When the intermediary aunt heard that she was a student, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that she would rent to some social idler, and the landlord would come to the agency to settle accounts with her.
"Wait, I'll look it up for you." The intermediary aunt took out a bad book and looked it up: "What standard do you want and how much is it?"
"One house and two houses are fine. It's better to have a house after two thousand years. It doesn't matter whether it's decorated or not, as long as the environment is good." Yang Ming didn't know much about this, so he just told the agent his request.
"Well, there are three places that meet your requirements. The houses are all built after 2000. One is in the Washington District at the back door of Songjiang University of Technology, and the other two are buildings for the employees' family members of Songjiang University of Technology." The intermediary aunt Said: "The Huafu community is relatively expensive. The house was built last year and has a relatively large area of 88 square meters. One of the employees' family buildings was built in 1999 and the other was built in 2002. The area is about the same, 34 square meters. It was renovated in 1999. The 2002 ones are not installed."
"How much is the rent?" After hearing this, Yang Ming felt that the employee's family building was not bad.
"The monthly rent of the staff's family building is 800, and the monthly rent of the Washington District is 1,500." The intermediary aunt said.
"Can the rent be cheaper?" Yang Ming asked.
"The ones in the Washington District can be negotiated, and the ones in the employee's family building are the lowest price." The intermediary aunt said: "If you think it is suitable, I will contact the owner to see the house."
Yang Ming and Zhang Bing did some research and asked for Lan Ling's opinion. They both felt that the employee's family building was good. After all, most of the people living there were school teachers and there were no people from the society, so it was safer.
"Let's take a look at the houses in the employee's family building!" Yang Ming said.
"Okay, the agency fee has been agreed with you first. Once you decide to rent, you and the landlord will each pay me 10% of the monthly rent as the agency fee." The agency aunt said.
Ten percent is 80 yuan, which is quite reasonable. Yang Ming nodded and said, "No problem."
"Remind you, you can't contact the owner privately for a while!" The agent aunt said: "For insurance, you give me a deposit of fifty yuan first, otherwise if you bypass me, how can I make money!"
Yang Ming thought that this was indeed the case, and then looked at the business license on the wall. He felt that this person should not be a liar, so he took out fifty yuan and gave it to the intermediary aunt.
The intermediary aunt gave him a deposit receipt and contacted the owner.
"One of the homeowners has gone out, and now there is only the renovated one in 1999, is that okay?" Putting down the phone, the intermediary aunt asked.
"Okay, when will you see the house?" Yang Ming doesn't care if the decoration is better.
"It's ready now." The intermediary aunt said: "The owner of the house is a professor of Songjiang Engineering University. The house is divided by the unit, but he still has a house, so this house is free."
The intermediary aunt is a small business, so she runs it alone, locked the door directly, and took Yang Ming and the others to see the house.
Seeing Zhang Bin's Chrysler 300c outside the door, the intermediary aunt couldn't help but said, "With such a nice car, why rent a house?"
But then she stopped talking, probably she subconsciously regarded Yang Ming and Zhang Bing as sons of a rich family, and Lan Ling was the woman Yang Ming took care of behind his family's back.
Zhang Bin didn't know what the intermediary aunt was thinking, so he explained: "My dad's company's car is not ours."
Such an explanation made the intermediary aunt's mind even more firm. She looked at Yang Ming and Lan Ling with suspicion along the way, and even wondered if Lan Ling's ID card was forged? She doesn't look like she is seventeen!
The family area of Songjiang Engineering University is inside the campus. After Yang Ming lives on campus, he can find Lan Ling very conveniently. Because it was built by the school for its own employees, the environment here is very good, there are special cleaning staff, and access cards are required for entry and exit. If anyone comes to visit friends, the security room will call the owner to verify, so no one else can come in.
Now Yang Ming couldn't get in, they stood at the gate of the family area, waiting for the owner to come and pick them up.
About ten minutes later, a Volkswagen Golf stopped at the gate of the community, and an old man in his fifties got out of the car, and the agent lady rushed up to greet him: "Professor Liu, I have brought all the people who inspected the house. "
"Okay, let's go to see the room now... Huh?" Professor Liu couldn't help being taken aback when he saw Yang Ming.
As for Yang Ming, he was very surprised when he first saw Professor Liu get off the car! This person is Liu Weishan who I met in Tengchong a while ago!
"Old Liu, why is it you?" Yang Ming said happily. Zhang Jiefang had already told Yang Ming about Liu Weishan's identity, so Yang Ming respected him very much.
"You are..." Liu Weishan thought Yang Ming looked familiar just now, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
Yang Ming was stunned. It turned out that Liu Weishan didn't recognize him just now, so he couldn't help being slightly disappointed, but then he thought that Liu Weishan is so famous, he must meet many people every day, it's normal that he can't remember the person who only met him once of.
"By the way! I remembered, you are the young man I met in Tengchong Xinhua Bookstore!" Liu Weishan touched his forehead and said suddenly.
