Chapter 38 Rent-free
"Xiao Liao, you can sign a rental contract, right?" Zhong Hui turned and looked at Xiao Liao with a smile.
"Yes, this is easy. All you need is a computer." Xiao Nie said immediately.
"Oh, you also need a computer?" Zhong Hui had forgotten about this.
"Yes, it needs to be made on a computer and then printed out later." Xiao Liao said, "Actually, any advertising shop can do this and print it out directly."
Afraid that Zhong Hui would misunderstand that he didn't want to help, he quickly said, "It's mainly because I don't have a computer. If I were at the factory, I would have one."
Zhong Hui waved her hand: "It's okay, I'll go to the advertising store to get it."
I didn’t know this before, but now that I know, it’s still more convenient to go to the advertising store.
"Okay, then once I've printed the contract, I'll let you come over to sign it. The price is exactly as it's printed on the flyer. One room is 180, and a two-bedroom apartment is 360 a month. You have to pay a month's deposit."
"Okay." Xiao Liao agreed immediately, "Then I'll go back and pack my luggage and prepare to move in."
Zhong Hui was quite happy that the first house was successfully rented out and she had taken the second step towards becoming a landlady.
When going downstairs, Zhong Hui suddenly remembered and asked, "Xiao Liao, do you have any colleagues or friends who want to rent a house? If so, can you introduce one to me?"
"Sure, if there's a need, I'll definitely introduce you to rent a house here."
Fearing that Xiao Liao wouldn't take it seriously, Zhong Hui added, "If you can help me rent out five apartments, I'll waive your rent for one month."
"Really?" Xiao Liao's eyes lit up.
"Of course."
"Okay, okay, Sister Zhong, I'll go ask around right away." Xiao Liao's enthusiasm suddenly increased.
Zhong Hui couldn't help laughing: "Go ask."
"Yeah." Xiao Liao was not in a hurry to go back and pack up his things. He went back to the factory to promote the event first.
Zhong Hui thought about it and decided that since there was nothing to do here at the moment, she might as well go to the printing shop.
Xiao Nie is also very busy and never stops working.
The most important thing is that I have only moved here for a few days and haven’t gone around much yet.
Zhong Hui thought about it, went home to put the key, and then rode her second-hand motorcycle downstairs.
Speaking of this motorcycle, her sister-in-law advised her to buy a new one, but Zhong Hui’s mentality now is that although she has money, she can’t waste it. This car can be ridden and is quite easy to ride. Besides, she is also thinking about getting a driver’s license and buying a car.
Riding a motorcycle slowly along the road, this area used to be farmland, and two or three miles away was the industrial park. It has just been developed recently, and the green belts on both sides of the road are still mostly loess.
However, the banyan trees on both sides of the road are planted very well and are lush and green. In a few years, they will surely be lush and leafy.
After riding out of the community for five or six minutes, I saw that the houses on both sides of the street were shops, selling breakfast, noodles, fruits, and all kinds of things. At this time, people went to work and students went to school, and the street looked quite deserted.
Zhong Hui rode slowly, looking around constantly, and finally found an advertising store next to a convenience store with words like "Photography and Printing" written on it.
Zhong Hui parked the motorcycle directly in front of the store. There was not much business in the store at the moment, and the owner was sitting there drinking tea and listening to the radio.
Seeing a guest coming in, the boss sat up to entertain him.
When Zhong Hui asked to print out the rental contract, the boss directly handed her several templates and said, "I have a complete range of rental contracts here. If any of them doesn't suit you, I can modify them."
Zhong Hui took a look and found that it was indeed quite complete. She selected one and asked the boss to print out fifty copies for her first.
Seeing her printing so much, the boss was a little surprised: "So many? But it doesn't matter. The date column is blank anyway, so it doesn't matter."
Zhong Hui smiled and said nothing. She watched the boss finish printing quickly, paid the money and left the printing shop.
When they passed by a flower shop on their way back, they saw many small pots of flowers and plants placed at the door. Zhong Hui was inspired and stopped the car to take a look.
"Hello, what do you need?" The clerk came out with a pot of flowers and asked with a smile when he saw Zhong Hui.
Zhong Hui didn't know what she needed. In the past, she would start working as soon as she opened her eyes every day, and would not come back from the fields until dark. She didn't even have enough time to eat, so how could she have the free time to plant flowers and grass?
It's a rare opportunity to have some free time now, and Zhong Hui also wants to cultivate her sentiments.
"What is this?" Zhong Hui pointed to the potted plant in the clerk's hand.
"This is the fragrant vine, which is most suitable for our climate and has a long flowering period. Look at this flower bud, this pot is about to bloom." The clerk introduced.
It was the first time for Zhong Hui to see it. The most common thing she saw was roses. Some families in the village had several of them planted at home, and they could cover an entire wall, which was quite pleasing to the eye.
After asking the clerk, she learned that the fragrant ivy was easy to care for, so Zhong Hui bought a pot.
I thought that a lonely pot of Tillandsia would not look good on the balcony, so I bought another pot of Tillandsia.
There are so many flowers in the flower shop. Zhong Hui likes this one and that one and wants to buy a few more pots.
But it was difficult to put the flowers there since she was riding a motorcycle, so Zhong Hui had no choice but to give up and buy these two pots first.
At this time, it would be great if she could drive a car by herself. Seeing a car passing by her, Zhong Hui became more determined to get a driver's license.
After putting away the two newly bought pots of flowers, Zhong Hui rode her bike back to Xinhe Community.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Xiao Nie wearing work clothes and high heels, walking towards me in a hurry.
"Sister, Sister Zhong, look, I printed another 500 copies. Have you seen enough?" Xiao Nie was holding a thick stack of rental advertisements.
"Almost." Zhong Hui nodded.
"Okay, I'll go and post it right away." Xiao Nie said, and prepared to take action.
"It's not too urgent. Take a break and catch your breath first." Zhong Hui said helplessly.
"There's no rush. Look at the sweat on your forehead. Let's go to my house and have a drink of water," Zhong Hui invited.
Xiao Nie was indeed a little thirsty. She hadn't had a sip of water this morning, and she went upstairs with Zhong Hui.
"Sister, these are the new flowers you bought. They are so beautiful." Seeing Zhong Hui holding a pot in each hand, Xiao Nie finally noticed.
"Yes, I bought them from the flower shop on the street. There are so many flowers here, many of which I don't recognize. I'll try to grow them first. If they survive, I'll buy a few more pots."
"Okay, you can definitely take care of it." Xiao Nie smiled. She didn't want to grow any flowers, she would just take care of herself first.
When they got home, Zhong Hui put the two pots of flowers on the balcony. Xiao Nie drank two glasses of water in one breath and was in a hurry to leave.
Zhong Hui quickly said, "Xiao Nie, you can find someone to help you put up the advertising paper."
Hiring someone to do it? That would cost money, and Xiao Nie didn't want to pay for it. Sister Zhong paid her a salary, but she didn't want to make money for others!
After knowing each other for a long time, Zhong Hui also knew Xiao Nie's personality, so she said, "Find someone to help you, and I'll pay the salary."
"Okay." Xiao Nie's eyes lit up.
Zhong Hui smiled helplessly, and thought of the curtains again, so she asked Xiao Nie to go and look for curtains that were cheap and affordable.
"Yeah." Xiao Nie agreed immediately and walked away again.
Young people are so energetic, Zhong Hui exclaimed.
