Chapter 150 The whole rental house may need to be moved...
Chapter 150
Lin Mujin went to Chengbao early in the morning and handed over an extremely long foreign article of more than 6,000 words to the front desk. Editor-in-Chief Ma and Editor Wu had not arrived yet.
After that, I hurried to Central.
Cousin Lin will lead three groups of people to recycle old items, including Boss Gao.
Because she and her cousin Lin were both outsiders, in order to avoid being at a disadvantage, they had to let the insiders bid against each other.
When Lin Mujin arrived, three groups of people had already arrived and were looking around and evaluating the situation.
Boss Gao saw her and smiled, clasping his fists. "Congratulations, Miss Lin. No, I should call you Boss Lin. Your business is growing bigger and bigger."
Lin Mujin smiled and responded, "Congratulations, congratulations."
Boss Gao's face turned stern again. "Boss Lin, we are old friends. I can eat here by myself."
Lin Mujin smiled and said, "There are two floors in total. We don't have that much time."
He turned to his cousin Lin and said, "Brother, give them paper and pen."
She clapped her hands to attract everyone's attention. "Everyone, take a break. I have something to tell you. This time, everything except the bathroom will be demolished and sold off. You can't just pick and choose. That's not allowed. Write down your desired price on a piece of paper and hand it to me. The highest bidder wins. By the way, write it down for each floor. You have two minutes to think about it, then hand me the paper."
Soon Lin Mujin received three notes and read them with her cousin Lin.
The highest recycling price on the 34th floor is 4,800 yuan, Boss Gao.
The highest recycling price on the 35th floor is 6,700 yuan, Boss Song.
Lin Mujin directly unfolded the note and let them see the results.
It means that you are fair and just and there is no shady dealings.
The remaining one had no choice but to leave.
Lin Mujin urged the two to move out as soon as possible, and it would be best to finish everything today.
"Sister, it will be messy after we take things apart. You should go home first. I'll watch here." Cousin Lin said.
Lin Mujin nodded in agreement, "Okay, brother, I'll go first."
Naturally, she didn't go home to rest, but went to look for a house.
They have to recruit people one after another, and that's not all, they also have to recruit people from inland areas.
When the master chef comes from the inland, he will be unfamiliar with the place, so he must be provided with food and accommodation.
So she planned to look at a few more properties while she had some free time.
However, there is no agent yet, so she plans to find an "acquaintance" - Sister Zhu's younger brother.
It's the same as buying a few pounds of seasonal fruits, which doesn't cost much, but the main thing is that it's not good to go empty-handed.
"Yes, I want to rent the whole place, three floors will be enough." Lin Mujin stated her needs.
Sister Zhu's brother gave her two addresses and asked her to go and ask.
Lin Mujin said goodbye and left. After all, they were not familiar with each other and there was nothing to talk about.
But this is also good, it is efficient.
She went to both places. Both landlords had two or three properties, but they were all occupied, so she would have to wait if she wanted to rent the entire property.
However, the two introduced her to other landlords.
Lin Mujin wondered if they had a WeChat circle of friends.
Is the landlord’s only friend the landlord?
"I have a tenement building that is being renovated. Didn't Mr. Zhu's house get renovated, and then the rent went up. But the house price dropped right after mine was renovated, and the rent might have to drop too. Now I don't know whether I should continue the renovation or not. Mainly, I have already bought the materials and paid the deposit. Alas..." The fat landlord was very distressed.
Lin Mujin asked hurriedly, "Can I go see the house?"
The landlord was very kind and took her there. It was a four-story building, which was definitely much bigger than the one she lived in now.
The first floor has been changed from a shop to a residence.
She counted them and found six rooms, each with a bedroom and a living room, which was quite a lot.
There are four rooms on the second floor, two bedrooms and one living room.
There are also four rooms on the third floor, same as above.
There are only two rooms on the fourth floor, a spacious three-bedroom and one-living room.
"Why are there so few rooms on the fourth floor?" Lin Mujin asked.
The landlord replied, "We used to live here. My parents lived in one room, and my wife and I lived in another. It was a three-bedroom, one-living room layout. We need to re-waterproof it this time. It leaks a bit during the rainy season, so we're planning to remodel it and make it into four small rooms."
Lin Mujin asked, "How much would it cost to rent the entire place?"
The fat landlord began to count on his fingers, "I have to do the math, it must be at least 18,000."
Lin Mujin naturally wouldn't agree. "I want to rent it, but don't take advantage of me. The price is fifteen thousand."
The fat boss waved his hands wildly, the flesh on his face trembling from the force he exerted. "No, no. This isn't even as much as I used to earn from renting out my rentals."
Lin Mujin asked, "You have other businesses now, right? Just ask if collecting rent and cleaning the house is too much work, and if it's really hindering your ability to make money. Could you earn more elsewhere for the missing thousand or two thousand?"
The fat landlord was a little tempted, "That...that won't work either."
Seeing that his attitude had softened somewhat, Lin Mujin asked, "Do you think the housing prices will continue to fall? Will the rents also have to fall? If you calculate this way, maybe fifteen thousand will be the normal housing price in half a year."
The fat landlord was stunned by the trick, "Then who are you renting the house to? Will it damage the house?"
Lin Mujin quickly assured her, "No, no, I run a restaurant. It used to be a small restaurant, only a few square meters. Now that it's doing well, I rented a bigger shop to expand. The reason I rented the place is for my employees. When I hired them, I promised to provide them with food and accommodation."
The fat landlord said, "You're quite a nice person then."
Lin Mujin smiled and said, "I'm not a good person. I provide food and accommodation, but the salary is not high, and doing odd jobs in the catering industry is quite tiring. Oh, and there must be a gas water heater on every floor. Employees must shower every day. People working in the catering industry have to be clean."
The fat landlord asked, "Where is your shop?"
Lin Mujin gave Huimei the position.
The fat landlord knew where it was, "I know where it is. What are you selling?"
Lin Mujin's mouth twitched. How come renting an apartment also involves checking household registration? "Sandwiches, coffee, hamburgers, tiramisu, daifuku... there are quite a lot of varieties."
The fat landlord swallowed and said, "It must be delicious."
Lin Mujin smiled and nodded. "If it's not delicious, I won't be able to make money to open a big store, let alone rent your house that costs over 10,000 yuan."
The fat landlord rubbed his hands and said, "Then I'll try it next time. OK! Fifteen thousand, I agree."
Lin Mujin always felt that something was wrong. He was attracted by her food. "Can I take a look at the room?"
Before, I just had a quick look.
The fat landlord waved his hand generously and said, "Feel free to look around."
Lin Mujin first looked at the fourth floor, where the two three-bedroom, one-living-room apartments had the same layout.
Now it's very empty inside, without any furniture.
She really likes the north-south transparent apartment.
However, the walls are a bit dirty and the cement on the ground is a bit bumpy.
"This house has no partitions, how are you going to decorate it?"
The fat landlord scratched his head and said, "It's just waterproofing the roof, re-scraping the whitewash, and then applying cement."
Lin Mujin felt that it was not enough and sighed in her heart, she had to continue fooling people!
