Chapter 44 Zheng Benming
"Okay, we are relatives, Brother Daming, and I trust you. So I will hand over my house to you." Zhong Hui said directly without saying much.
"Don't worry, I will definitely keep it safe for you and pay every penny of the rent every month." Zheng Benming also promised.
"I believe in Brother Daming, but brothers should be clear about their accounts. Although we are relatives, there are some things that need to be clarified. Let's sign a contract later to avoid any problems in the future."
"Of course, no problem."
Zhong Hui continued, "Brother Daming, it's like this. I've booked 181 rooms in my two buildings. Whether you rent them alone or share them, the price is the same. You'll be responsible for collecting the rent and renting them out. If there are any problems with the tenants later, you'll be the one to handle them. I won't be responsible for anything else in the future, I'll just focus on the monthly income.
Of course, I can't let you suffer a loss, so from now on, I'll give you ten dollars in profit per room per month."
Although Zheng Benmin's eyesight was not very good, his mind was still quick. He counted the profit of ten yuan per room when he went upstairs. There were sixteen floors in the building. So, the profit of ten yuan per room would be more than two thousand yuan a month.
This is no better than working on a construction site.
"Sister Xiaohui, I will definitely do my best."
"Cough cough..." Zhong Hui almost choked to death. She hurriedly patted her chest and coughed a few times before she recovered.
"Brother Daming, let's make a deal. Can you call me Zhong Hui?"
Zheng Benming was a little confused, but he nodded obediently: "Okay, Xiao, oh, Zhong Hui."
Zhong Hui nodded with satisfaction. It had been many years since anyone called her "Sister Xiaohui" like that. She almost got goosebumps all over her body.
Just then another call came in, and Zhong Hui picked it up: "Okay, wait downstairs for a few minutes, I'll be downstairs."
Hearing that the tenants downstairs were also quite anxious, Zhong Hui quickly stood up and walked out. When she reached the door, she remembered Zheng Benming and called him, "Brother Daming, come with me to take a look."
"Okay, here I come." Zheng Benming quickly stood up.
When we arrived at Building 7, there were already several people waiting to see the house. It was easy to rent here, and anyone who had seen it would usually book it directly.
Zhong Hui signed a contract with someone and asked Zheng Benming to follow suit. After signing the contract, she told the tenant to contact Zheng Benming if there were any problems in the future.
Turning around, he asked, "Brother Daming, what's your phone number? I told them to contact you if they have any questions."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zheng Benming's dark face: "Well, I don't have a phone yet."
Well, Zhong Hui had no choice but to let the tenant contact her first.
After more than an hour's work, another seven units were rented out. When they were finally done, Zhong Hui decided to take Zheng Benming to buy a mobile phone first.
She went to the store where she bought her mobile phone last time and spent more than a thousand yuan to buy an old Nokia model for Zheng Benming.
This was Zheng Benming's first time using a mobile phone. He happily fumbled with it and said, "Thank you, Xiaohui."
Zhong Hui held her forehead with her hand. How come this name has changed back again? It really can’t be changed.
"Sister Xiaohui, please deduct this money from my salary."
"No need to deduct it. This is what your job requires. I gave it to you directly. It can be considered a benefit." Zhong Hui said without thinking. She was not a stingy person.
"Brother Daming, I have provided you with this cell phone. As for the phone bills, I will reimburse you 100 yuan every month. In addition, I will provide you with accommodation. You can choose a two-bedroom apartment. There are not many two-bedroom apartments left, so you can choose one yourself." Zhong Hui was very generous to her relatives.
Of course, if it were other relatives, it would be a different story. When they were young, only their aunt was nice to them.
"Hey, this treatment is better than what office workers get." Zheng Benming was extremely grateful. "Sister Xiaohui, I will definitely work hard in the future and never let you worry about anything."
Zhong Hui smiled and nodded: "I believe you."
Zhong Hui wanted to say that changing the address first would be the best way to thank him at the moment, but then she thought, forget it, she was too lazy to waste her breath.
"Sister Xiaohui, I'll choose the first floor. I see the first floor of Building 7 hasn't been rented out yet. It's convenient to live on the first floor if I have something to do." After returning to the community, Zheng Benming made a decision after taking a look.
"Okay." Zhong Hui said indifferently.
Seeing that no one was looking at the house at the moment, Zhong Hui was tired from walking today and prepared to go home to rest for a while.
I first told Zheng Benming to clean up the house he lived in. I originally wanted Zheng Benming to notify the tenants and he would be responsible for the rent from now on.
After thinking about it, he realized that the other person didn't know Zheng Benming and probably didn't believe him. He had to take him there himself to explain it. So he gave up for the time being. At least he had to wait until the weekend or evening, when everyone was at work.
Seeing that nothing was wrong, Zhong Hui asked Zheng Benming to go home with her to get the key to the first floor. As soon as Zheng Benming left, Zhong Hui immediately collapsed on the sofa without any image: "I'm so tired."
I don’t know if it’s because I walked too much or because of the pair of high-heeled sandals I wore today, but Zhong Hui’s feet felt so sore that she didn’t want to do anything.
Lying on the sofa, not wanting to move at all, Zhong Hui stared at the ceiling with lifeless eyes. Fortunately, she found Zheng Benming, otherwise, she would have been in trouble in the future.
In particular, there was a tenant who came to rent the house today. He was a grown man, accompanied by his wife and children. He didn't look like someone who was easy to get along with.
When they saw that the landlord was a young woman, their eyes lit up instantly, as if Zhong Hui was a sucker.
Zhong Hui would never rent the house to such people and rejected them on the spot. The man's face changed and he wanted to attack her.
Zheng Benming happened to come over. As soon as he saw Zheng Benming, the man immediately restrained himself and pretended to be honest, which amazed Zhong Hui.
After only meeting them once, she had no idea what kind of people these tenants were. Fortunately, there was Zheng Benming. Otherwise, she was a woman alone, and if she encountered some unreasonable and dishonest people when collecting rent, it would be really annoying.
As she was thinking, Zhong Hui fell asleep unknowingly. When she woke up, it was already dark.
In a daze, Zhong Hui heard a lot of cursing downstairs, and there seemed to be sounds of fighting. She quickly put on her slippers and walked out.
