Chapter 190 Life Security
After all, she didn't want her first experience as a landlord to end in a dispute.
Chen Yan had never expected that once she bought a house, she would immediately become a "landlady" collecting rent.
This identity seemed distant and unfamiliar before, but now it suddenly fell on my shoulders.
However, she also understood that this was an ancillary role that came with owning a property, and she would have to adapt to it sooner or later.
However, the overall rent is not high now. Even though this house is in a good location, is 40 square meters, and has a separate kitchen and bathroom, the monthly rent is only 80 yuan.
Although this price does not seem high at the moment, it was close to the reasonable market price given the overall economic environment at the time.
For an ordinary working-class person, 80 yuan a month in rent was a considerable expense. After all, at that time, most workers' monthly salaries were only a few hundred yuan, and even if they lived frugally for a month, they could not save much.
This rent is indeed a lot of pressure for them.
But since she has the property as a backup, this little money seems less important.
She knew clearly that compared to the monthly income of a few dozen yuan, the house itself was her most valuable asset.
This is not only an economic guarantee, but also a symbol of stability and dignity in life.
Rather than being a landlord and collecting rent, she actually wanted to move in as soon as possible.
She had already imagined that one day she would be able to cook, read, and live a peaceful life in this little house of her own.
However, the reality is that she cannot move into this house for the time being.
She will definitely use this house for her own living, but not now.
Because the original tenant's contract had not yet expired, she had to wait patiently until the lease expired before she could move in.
For now, I can only continue to stay with others. Although it is convenient, I still feel that it is not a long-term solution.
She is currently living with Zhao Weiqing.
Zhao Weiqing was a generous and magnanimous person. He took great care of Shen Yan without any complaints, allowing her to have a smooth transition during this period.
But she also understood that she could not stay away for long. This was both a respect for her friend and a maintenance of her own dignity.
She had an appointment with Lin Youfa today to receive a batch of goods and inspect them before putting them into the warehouse.
This shipment was of vital importance and was part of her business, so there was no room for error.
In order to ensure the quality and quantity of the goods, she originally planned to go and inspect the goods in person.
But this matter is more important because the house transfer procedures must be completed in the morning.
The transfer of the house not only means that she officially becomes the owner of the property, but also marks the beginning of a stable life in the future, and no delay is allowed.
So she contacted Lin Youfa and asked him to change the delivery time of the goods to the manor at 11 a.m.
Although time is a bit tight, this way we can still arrange follow-up matters after the inspection is completed.
After completing the transfer, she immediately rushed back to the manor.
It is one of the focuses of her career and life, and warehouse management is a part that she cannot ignore.
She was worried that if she was not there, there might be omissions or inappropriate arrangements.
She wanted to see the warehousing process through in person.
Even if it is just ordinary cargo handling, she hopes to be able to confirm with her own eyes that the goods are safe and intact, and are properly classified and stored, so that she can be completely at ease.
But before rushing back to the manor, they stopped by Yun Suling's shop.
After all, the successful completion of the house transfer today is a significant milestone for her, and she hopes to share this joy with her friends around her as soon as possible.
Because they wanted to tell Yun Suling the good news of the successful transfer as soon as possible.
This intellectual and enthusiastic female friend helped me a lot in buying a house. She not only provided guidance in terms of information, but also gave me emotional encouragement.
After all, she was the first one to learn that they were planning to buy a house, and she actively helped contact the properties and coordinate house viewings.
Yun Suling not only introduced her to several real estate agents, but also accompanied her on many field inspections and offered many pertinent suggestions.
It was with her support that the whole process seemed less difficult and lonely.
If they bought the house and there was no news at all, she would definitely be restless at home, wondering whether they had completed the procedures smoothly, and whether they had been bullied or cheated.
She couldn't help but think about this and that, worrying that something might go wrong, such as the landlord suddenly changing his mind, the money being defrauded, or the process failing due to incomplete procedures or errors in the documents. Situations like these made her feel uneasy.
So they finally unanimously decided to go back home and report to their families that they were safe.
To reassure everyone, I also wanted to tell my parents that the house had been successfully purchased, and the process was very smooth without any obstacles.
What they never expected was that they would unexpectedly meet Song Xiaoshan in the small shop run by their mother.
Ever since we met her by chance on the way to look at houses together last time, we haven't heard from her since. It's as if she suddenly disappeared from this world.
According to what they learned later, Song Xiaoshan had already been kicked out of the house by her father Song Zhibang, and her living expenses had been completely cut off, and she received no support from her family at all.
At that time, the conflict between her and the Song family was very tense, and their relationship had almost deteriorated to the point where it could not be repaired.
Therefore, when they saw Yun Suling again in her store this time, Song Weiwei and Shen Yan were quite surprised. They didn't expect that she would choose to come back to help.
"Weren't you kicked out? Why are you here again?"
Song Zhibang had an undisguised coldness on his face, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his tone was filled with anger as he questioned.
Song Xiaoshan lowered her head silently, standing timidly to the side. Her voice was low and trembling as she spoke, "I'm here to help my mom. She probably can't handle it all by herself. Although I can't be of much help, I can at least lend a hand and do some chores."
In fact, since she moved out and lost the accommodation and living security provided by her home, she truly realized how difficult life outside is.
She found it difficult to even maintain basic food and clothing, and even hot water for bathing became a luxury.
In the past, she had a water heater at home and hot water was readily available, but now she can only get water by burning coal stoves at the entrance of the alley, and hot water has become a "resource".
What's even more difficult is that she can no longer work and live as comfortably as before.
During her working days, her colleagues were very harsh on her.
Even if she was a little slow in selling tickets or a little slow in handling customer issues, she would immediately be scolded and complained by her colleagues.
To be honest, her life now is not just tiring, it is extremely difficult, even harder than that of animals.
Hearing this, Song Zhibang sneered, "Help? Why didn't you offer to help before? You only think of your mother when you are short of money or food."
