"Lin Lao Er, how can you say that? When you brought us to meet Lin Xiao Di back then, you said that you two brothers were even closer and that we should help him out in the future. What? Are you going back on your word now?"
Wang Daqiang stood up angrily, his tall and burly frame positioned in front of the thin Lin Lao Er. He grabbed Lin Lao Er by the collar and lifted him up.
Looking at Wang Daqiang's angry eyes, Lin Lao Er said haltingly, his voice slightly hoarse from being off the ground, "Put...put me down!"
"Aren't you going to pay me back?"
Wang Daqiang promoted him even higher!
"Give me...give me the money!!!"
Wang Daqiang only put Lin Lao Er down after hearing him say he would pay back the money.
As soon as Lin Lao Er's feet touched the ground, he began to cough violently; he had almost suffocated to death just now.
"Then give me back the money!"
Wang Daqiang shoved the IOU into Lin Lao Er's face, his fleshy face trembling uncontrollably.
Lin Lao Er returned to his desk, his face pale. He opened the bottom drawer, took out two hundred yuan from a book, and handed it to Wang Daqiang and the other two.
Wang Daqiang took the two hundred yuan, tore up the three IOUs, and prepared to leave Lin Lao Er's office.
"He only borrowed 150 yuan, didn't he? This is 200 yuan!"
Lin Lao Er ran to the door, grabbed Wang Daqiang's sleeve, and pleaded, "You still have to give me 50 yuan!"
"How many hours have passed since yesterday? Shouldn't we charge some interest?"
After saying that, he shook off Lin Lao Er's hand and walked out.
Lin Lao Er, who dared not speak out against his anger, bit his lower lip until it bled, his eyes red as he watched the three figures leave.
His son is still in the hospital, and this money is intended to pay for his hospital fees!
The same thing happened at Lin Laosan's workplace. When the two Lin brothers got off work, they were furious and wanted to confront their younger brother and sister, only to find that they had already left Xinhe Town and their whereabouts were unknown...
By the time Lin Li found out about this, almost a week had passed.
What wouldn't those beasts in the Lin family do? Luckily, she severed ties with them early, otherwise she would have been made the scapegoat for this.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and got back to business!
Last night, Uncle Li came back to tell me that the house needs to be renovated, which will cost about 4,000 yuan.
4000 yuan!!
She only has about 2,500 yuan left, and is still short 1,500 yuan, but the house needs to be renovated as soon as possible.
Otherwise, in the summer, with more rain and more moss, she would be really afraid to go to the toilet!
Last night, I gritted my teeth and signed the contract with Uncle Li. I paid a deposit of 2,000 yuan first, 1,500 yuan when the project was half completed, and the final 500 yuan when the house was inspected and handed over.
Uncle Li said the project would be completed within a month, but now she has to figure out how to earn more than 1,000 yuan within that month. She's so worried!
You absolutely can't do without money!
Since signing the contract with Uncle Li last night, Lin Li has been back in her space constantly calculating her accounts. She now earns a net income of about 60 yuan a day from selling boxed lunches.
It's possible to earn this much in a month, but the current issue is the 1,000 yuan payment due halfway through the project, and time is tight.
While selling boxed lunches, Lin Li did her calculations. Maybe she should just stay in town for the next month, selling breakfast in the morning and boxed lunches at noon. That should be enough to cover the cost of repairing the house.
Once she made up her mind, she stopped worrying and panicking. After quickly finishing her business for the day, she pushed her cart to the town's bulletin board to see if there were any rental listings.
Looking from top to bottom and from left to right, I finally spotted two rental ads in the corner of the notice board.
One is a single room for rent, with a rent of 10 yuan per month; the other is a more spacious house in a better location, with a rent of 30 yuan per month.
Let's go check out both of them!
Lin Li noted down the addresses of the two companies, put the trolley into her space in a quiet place, and then slowly made her way to the rented single room.
This is a single-employee apartment set up by the company. There are more than twenty rooms on one floor, and only one large bathroom on the entire floor. It is very crowded in the morning and evening.
There is no kitchen in the private room; if you want to cook, you have to go to the communal kitchen.
In the communal kitchen, kitchen utensils from more than twenty companies are crammed together, leaving no private space whatsoever.
After looking around, Lin Li immediately ruled out this place. Firstly, she cooks large quantities of food, and secondly, she would have to take things out of her spatial storage to cook here...
She'll be dragged away like a monster!!!
When Lin Li arrived at the second rental property, she saw that it was a detached house with its own yard, and she was quite satisfied.
After knocking on the door and explaining my purpose to the elderly man who opened it, he led me into the courtyard for a tour.
The courtyard is relatively quiet, with a separate kitchen and bathroom. The house has only two rooms and a living room.
There's a tree planted in the middle courtyard, and the elderly couple has made the courtyard very warm and comfortable!
"Brother, I'm renting this place for my son, and I only want to rent it for a month. Are you interested?"
"A month?"
After hearing this, the old man lowered his head and thought for a long time. "We need to rent for at least six months. One month is too short!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Li felt a pang of regret. Her home was not far from Xinhe Town, and after renovating the house, she no longer needed to rent a place to live in the town.
"Sigh... I really like your house, but I really can't rent it for six months. To be honest, my family lives in Xinhe Village, which isn't far from the town. We're currently renovating the house, and the renovation will take a month, so I was thinking of renting a place in town for a month."
Lin Li explained regretfully to the old man.
After hearing this, the old man nodded, "Then there is indeed no reason to rent for such a long time!"
Lin Li nodded regretfully to the old man and was about to leave when she heard a voice coming from the master bedroom.
"Hey girl, we'll rent it to you for a month!"
Upon hearing the voice, Lin Li turned around and saw an elderly woman with white hair come out. "But you must promise not to damage our property, otherwise you will have to pay for it at the original price."
“That’s a must!” Lin Li nodded. “We’ll sign a contract and put all of this in black and white.”
"Old woman?" The old man tugged at the old woman's hand and shook his head at her.
The old woman slapped his hand away and said to Lin Li, "I won't lie to you, little sister, we rented this place because my eldest son wants to take us to the city. I don't really want to go; I don't know anyone there, and I'm afraid I won't be able to adjust. But I feel bad refusing my son's offer..."
The old man tugged at the old woman's sleeve again, but she still ignored him. "...And I also have to get along with my daughter-in-law, and I'm afraid I won't be able to. So I thought I'd go stay there for a while to get used to it, and see if I can. If I can, I'll stay; if not, I can always go home!"
Seeing that the old woman had said everything, the old man had no choice but to let go and sigh.
Following along is very important, thank you everyone!!!
