Chapter 287 The rental house is completed
"Alright? I've been working so hard lately that I forgot about the rental. So let's go now?"
Jiang Xinbai thought that he should go and have a look now since there were not many customers, because he would have no time when some people came.
"I'm fine, but why can't Jinsheng go?" Jiang Baocheng pointed at Yang Jinsheng who was dozing off nearby.
"He won't go. Let him look after the store. It's more reassuring to have someone of our own in charge of the store. Jinsheng, wake up," Jiang Xinbai reached out and pushed her husband.
"Um, ah, what, Xiaobai, what's wrong? Hey, when did you come, Third Brother?" Yang Jinsheng opened his eyes and saw Jiang Baocheng.
"I've been here for a long time. You're the only one sleeping soundly. Are you very tired? I told Xiaobai that working in the catering industry is tiring. What about you guys!"
"That's not true. I'm busy until one or two in the morning every day. I go home and fall asleep immediately. I have to get up early the next morning to go shopping. I can only catch up on some sleep during the day."
Yang Jinsheng thought that it would be okay if he endured this when he was young, but now that he is old, he really can’t do it. But there is nothing he can do because he has to make a living.
Jiang Xinbai poured a cup of mint water for her husband and continued, "Well, luckily the store has hired a few people who can help wash the skewers, so you don't have to do everything yourself. Then I said I would buy a steel bed in a few days and put it on the second floor, so that Jinsheng can go up there to catch up on some sleep during the day."
"What about you? Don't you also work until one or two o'clock?" Jiang Baocheng looked at Jiang Xinbai with heartache.
"I'm fine. I slept until eight or nine in the morning. I got enough sleep."
Jiang Baocheng looked better after hearing this. "Okay then, you guys just run the barbecue restaurant first, and I'll call you later when there's a good way to make money."
"Yeah, then I'll wait for you, Third Brother. Didn't we say we were going to look at houses? Let's go! Jinsheng, you stay in the store while Third Brother and I go to take a look at the rental houses. If they're almost ready, we can rent them out."
As Jiang Xinbai spoke, he took out a bag from the counter and hung it on his body.
"Oh, the house is ready, right? Fine, go ahead!"
Jiang Baocheng and Jiang Xinbai trotted all the way to the rental house under the scorching sun. By the time they arrived, their backs were already wet.
"Oh, I really should ride a bike. It's so hot." Jiang Xinbai took a piece of paper from his bag and fanned himself hard, but it didn't help.
"Well, why buy a bicycle? I'm going to buy a motorcycle, the kind that young people ride on the street. I've asked, and it's 970 yuan. I want to buy one. Do you want one? You have to order it in advance!"
Jiang Baocheng had been coveting motorcycles for a long time. Not only were they cool, but at least he wouldn't have to wait for the bus to go to far places.
"A motorcycle? I don't know how to drive one. It's too fast and it doesn't feel safe." Jiang Xinbai backed off a little. Besides, it wasn't cost-effective to buy a car for less than a thousand yuan.
"Of course you can't ride a motorcycle if you can ride a bicycle. And I like the Big Rooster. Oh, this brand of motorcycle is quite small and suitable for you girls. Okay, when I buy it back, you can try it. If you want to buy it, you can make an order later." Anyway, Jiang Baocheng had to buy it at one point, and it would be convenient for him to send his children to school sometimes.
Jiang Xinbai nodded and replied, "That's fine, we'll talk about it later. If it doesn't work out, I'll still buy a bicycle."
She left the car in her hometown to her parents, so she still needed a means of transportation here.
Jiang Baocheng used the key to open the door, reached out and pressed the wall, and the whole room lit up instantly.
"Here, this is a 50-square-meter room. Do you think the layout is okay?"
Jiang Xinbai leaned over to take a look. Hmm, it looked quite bright. "Is the kitchen ready? There are three rooms, and the walls are painted white. It's pretty good."
"Yes, our rental house is considered high-end in this area. Our home is not as nice as this one." Jiang Baocheng put a lot of thought into it. Of course, the corresponding rent is also a little higher.
"Hmm, what about the 20-30 square meter ones? How many rooms are there?"
"Look, it's next door, go and see!" Jiang Baocheng walked out of the room, took off a bunch of keys from his waist, then took out the key to 102 and inserted it. When the door opened, the space was obviously much smaller.
"This is 28 square meters, and it has two rooms separated by a kitchen where you can cook."
"It looks pretty good. By the way, Third Brother, have you inquired about the rent? Although we think our house is good, it will be difficult to rent it out if it is too high."
"Well, you don't have to worry about that. Didn't they say that a single room in a private house would cost fifteen yuan a month? But now the price has gone up. I've asked around, and it's basically between twenty-two and twenty-five, and that's without a kitchen. I'm thinking that a large apartment would cost seventy-five yuan a month, a room in a small apartment would cost twenty-six yuan, and the whole apartment would cost fifty yuan, so we don't have to worry about renting this house."
Jiang Xinbai nodded silently when he heard the price. It was not much higher than that of private houses, but the environment was much better than that of private houses. It seemed that many people would be willing to rent it.
"But now it's so hot, some people prefer to live in houses, where the trees provide shade and it's cooler. For me, I sweat profusely just standing there."
Jiang Xinbai was worried that the hot weather would discourage some people who wanted to rent a house.
"That's easy. A friend of mine happened to have a batch of ceiling fans. They are the ones that hang on the ceiling. How about we buy a few of them?"
Jiang Xinbai frowned and asked, "How much does that cost?"
"Well, I asked, and the retail price of a ceiling fan is two hundred each. If we want more, my friend should be able to give us a good price."
Jiang Baocheng actually thought about this problem, but felt that it would be too expensive. However, he changed his mind and thought that the ceiling fan could be used for many years, and it would still be his in the end, and the electricity would be paid by the tenant himself, so it would not cost much over the years.
"Then," Jiang Xinbai looked up, "how many rooms do we have in one building?"
"Thirty-six. There are thirty-six rooms in a building, so four buildings will need one hundred and forty-four ceiling fans."
Jiang Baocheng was shocked when he said this. "Well, let's say it's 200 yuan per unit, then this one will cost 28,800 yuan. With so much money, how about we install the big one? And ignore the small one for now?"
Jiang Xinbai thought for a moment and replied, "Since they are installed, install them all. You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. Hey, my store also needs two, and I want to install one at home, which is better than a floor-standing one. Oh, ask my second sister, isn't her house almost installed? If you need it, install it right away."
"Okay, I'll call her later and ask her. Hey, you said she didn't buy it with us at that time, and she had to buy it from someone else at a high price later. How troublesome."
"Hey, I just couldn't bear to spend money at that time! By the way, Third Brother, after the ceiling fan is bought, you need to calculate the remaining amount for me, and I will give it to you all at once. As for the matter of the motorcycle, I will go back and discuss it with Jinsheng."
"Well, okay. The two buildings on the left are in your name, and the two on the right are mine. I'll find time to get the property certificates."
"Okay, I'm willing to do it whenever it's convenient for you." Jiang Xinbai almost woke up laughing in the middle of the night when he thought about having so many houses of his own.
