Chapter 34 Landlord
Lin Yan went into the kitchen and saw a stack of old newspapers that had been begged for from others. She
probably begged from the landlord.
She found the leftover rice from yesterday and heated up some of it. Use it directly as glue!
Stick two layers of old newspapers close together, and put the rest directly on the ground.
When it was done, honeycomb briquettes were also delivered.
Three hundred pieces of honeycomb briquettes are not light. But in order to make more money, the other party did not call for help.
He was hot all over after pulling them all the way here.
When they were delivered, they helped to move them to the kitchen at eight yuan a trip, and stacked them up after they were moved in.
As soon as he saw the newspapers, he knew where to put them.
These were all services that could be enjoyed for the three yuan fee.
Seeing that the other party was sweating, Lin Yan took the tea bowl and poured him a bowl of boiled water.
"Comrade, have a drink of water and take a break."
"It's okay, I'll finish moving it in one go."
The other party was wearing the labor protection gloves issued by the factory and an apron. He was carrying honeycomb coal with a small wooden board in his hand. He
had carried the honeycomb coal to the flatbed truck in the same way before.
The staff there all recognized him.
However, as long as there was a receipt and money, they would still sell it to him. It didn't affect their interests anyway.
They even gave them cigarettes!
Fang Mingche moved all the tools to be moved into the storage room, and Lin Yan also poured a cup of water from her own teacup.
Seeing that the last cup was still a little hot, she poured it back and forth with the previous bowl of water to speed up the cooling.
Then she evenly poured it into a bowl and handed it to the two people.
"Comrade, drink it before moving, there's no rush."
The educated youth who returned to the city and was carrying honeycomb coal thanked him, took off his gloves and took the bowl.
He was actually a little curious about what this couple did, buying so much honeycomb coal at once.
But they were not familiar with each other, so it was difficult to ask.
After drinking the water, Fang Mingche said, "Comrade, please help me deliver four honeycomb coals to the landlord."
"Okay!"
The honeycomb coals used for cooking and boiling water yesterday and this morning were all borrowed from the landlord.
At this moment, the landlord happened to have tools and gloves for carrying, so he asked him to help.
"Uncle, the honeycomb coal is here for you."
"Okay, got it."
After moving everything, Fang Mingche paid the money for the honeycomb coal and three yuan for labor.
"I'll find you if I need it in the future."
"Okay!"
Lin Yan swept up some of the honeycomb coal debris with a broom.
"Why don't you ask me why I came so late?"
Fang Mingche laughed, "Why else? Your dad locked me up. Did you find it?"
"Yeah. He didn't even let me ride a bicycle, so it's troublesome to take the bus here."
Fang Mingche said, "Go buy a ladies' bicycle in the afternoon?"
Lin Yan shook her head, "A bicycle ticket plus a bicycle will cost more than 200 yuan. You don't have much money left, right?"
Fang Mingche said, "There are still a few dozen. Let's wait until the business is on track, then we'll go buy it."
There is not a thousand yuan on the coupon, and Yan will probably feel insecure again with her personality.
However, it's not her fault.
Even if he thinks about spending more than 900 yuan in the past two days, he still feels a little scared.
What does it mean to spend money like water? This is it.
At a time when the purchasing power of a ten-yuan bill is very large, this money is spent too quickly.
Lin Yan saw Yanyan still eating candied haws, "Don't eat the remaining two, save them for the afternoon. Eating too much candy will ruin your appetite!"
Yanyan pouted, and seeing her mother's hand reaching out, she had to hand in the sign.
Lin Yan took it and put it in the cupboard.
We had leftovers for lunch today, so we just ate whatever was left. It's okay to cook it later.
"Don't run out, just play in the small yard."
"Oh."
Yanyan stopped eating the candied haws and started playing with the toy she bought today on the cement floor: a spinning top.
She spun it so hard and followed the spinning top. This way she would keep warm.
The landlord's knees were empty, so he sat under the eaves happily watching her play.
"Yanyan, where are your father and mother?"
"Reading in the house." Yanyan said in a baby voice.
The landlord understood, "Oh, they are taking the college entrance examination, right?"
Nowadays, many educated youth who returned to the city are still preparing for the college entrance examination. There is no way, it is not easy to find a job!
But as long as you are admitted to the university, not only can you study for free, but you will also receive a living allowance.
After graduation, there will be a good office job waiting for you.
Many educated youth continued to pick up books to review while waiting for the street office to arrange a job.
However, it is rare for a tenant like me to run from the countryside to BJ to review.
But this kid must be really rich. I saw him buying a lot of things one after another in the past two days.
I heard that he was going to set up a mobile tea stall.
Who cares what he does, as long as he is not cheating.
He has experienced a lot of ups and downs in his life, so he won't be too rigid.
As for the expiration of the letter of introduction, it is not within the old man's consideration.
He mainly saw that Fang Mingche brought his daughter to Beijing to find his educated youth wife who dumped him, and he was quite loyal.
His educated youth wife was born and raised in BJ.
This means that he knows her well.
In addition, people who live with a two or three-year-old daughter should not commit crimes.
Yanyan nodded, that is, to take the college entrance examination.
In fact, she didn't know what this meant, but her parents and grandma and grandpa were all saying this.
Fang Mingche and Lin Yan were indeed reviewing whenever they had time. There were only four months and a few days left before the college entrance examination, so they had to hurry up.
Lin Yan was ahead in progress, and Fang Mingche just started last night.
If they encountered a difficult problem, the two could discuss it with each other.
The sound of Yanyan spinning the top and talking to the landlord did not affect them.
It was not in the classroom, where was there a 100% quiet place?
It was almost 12 o'clock, Fang Mingche put down his book and went to heat up the food.
Yanyan was still talking to the landlord.
The landlord, Uncle Gu, told others that Fang Mingche was his distant nephew.
Fang Mingche saw that the old man seemed to be a lonely old man, and considering his age, it would not be a disadvantage to call him "uncle", so he did not refute.
The old man was probably too lazy to deal with those neighbors who wanted to use his house.
Besides, it would be convenient for him to live there for a long time. No one would suspect that he was an illegal in BJ.
This house is a side house of a large courtyard, with a total of four rooms.
It is said that the whole courtyard should belong to Uncle Gu.
But in the 1950s, many families moved in and divided up his courtyard.
Only these side rooms were left for his family to live in. The main house was occupied by someone.
According to the development of the previous life, in this case, the property rights of the courtyard should be returned to him.
But he could not drive out the people living in it and make them homeless. He could only collect rent from them.
The rent that was previously paid to the street office was directly paid to Uncle Gu himself.
This area can be sold for more than 200,000 yuan per square meter in the future. The whole yard is probably about 300 to 400 square meters.
Grandpa Gu is a quasi-millionaire with a net worth of nearly 100 million yuan.
I just don't know where his family members are. It's hard to ask, maybe it's something sad.
"Yanyan, don't bother Grandpa Gu."
Grandpa Gu smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
