Chapter 28 Renting a Room in Shenzhen



Lin Li looked at the recruitment site, at the endless stream of employers and the sea of ​​job seekers. This was just the beginning of Shenzhen's development.

After seeing the job requirements and salary offered by foreign companies, Lin Li decided to first sell boxed lunches in the Shekou Industrial Zone, and then slowly look for entrepreneurial opportunities.

We took a bus to the Shekou Industrial Zone.

Upon arriving at the Shekou Industrial Zone, one immediately sees a sign that reads, "Time is money, efficiency is life."

The factory area houses a number of well-known enterprises, such as Keda Toy Factory, Sanyo Factory, and Float Glass Factory.

The factory workshop was bustling with activity, machines humming and workers busy at work.

Small shopping malls have also sprung up in the surrounding area, selling daily necessities such as flour, beverages, washing machines, and televisions.

To meet the needs of residents and workers, supporting facilities such as schools, hospitals, and banks have also been built here.

Lin Li wandered around and saw a lot of job postings and rental listings on a red bulletin board.

After memorizing the rental information, she first went to a rental room with a rent of 50 yuan. Before even entering, she saw the noisy and dirty environment inside.

Lin Li turned and left immediately. She always had high standards for her accommodations. Without proper rest, she couldn't do anything!

When we arrived at the second rental apartment, the environment was much better than the first one. However, it was also very popular with other tenants.

Lin Li thought for a moment and walked towards the most expensive rental apartment in the newly built community, which was priced at 190 yuan per unit.

Upon entering the residential area, it immediately became much quieter. Every building was brand new. Lin Li went to the real estate agency inside the residential area.

Inside a small bungalow, several young men and women in uniforms sat, and they put on professional smiles when they saw Lin Li enter.

"Auntie, are you here to buy or rent a house?"

"Rent a place!"

"Renting an apartment? We have two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments available. How big do you want to rent?"

Lin Li thought for a moment, "I live alone, so I'll rent a two-bedroom apartment!"

"Alright, there are three two-bedroom apartments available for rent in the complex right now. Come with me to take a look!"

Lin Li nodded and followed the real estate agent out of the real estate agency.

"Auntie, are you all alone in Shenzhen?"

"Hmm!" Lin Li replied perfunctorily, her eyes darting around.

Upon seeing Lin Li's expression, the real estate agent's professional smile deepened.

“Auntie, this is a newly built community with complete living facilities. It’s only a 30-minute walk from Shekou Industrial Zone, and there are shopping malls, schools and banks nearby.”

As she walked to the entrance of the residential compound, she pointed to the bus stop outside and said...

"Look, there's a bus stop right at the entrance of the community, making it very convenient for you to go anywhere in Shenzhen."

"Is it safe?"

Upon hearing Lin Li's question, the staff at the real estate agency immediately assumed that the elderly woman must have lived in a high-end residential area and went straight to the core issue.

"Our safety here is guaranteed. Security personnel patrol 24 hours a day, which absolutely ensures everyone's safety."

Seeing Lin Li's disbelieving look, the real estate agent chuckled, "You think no security guards questioned you when you came in, right?"

Lin Li raised an eyebrow and looked at her.

"That's because they saw you go directly to the real estate agency, and this is just the first line of defense for our community. Please follow me!"

Lin Li followed her to the second gate, where the young security guard stood straight and bowed to them.

The real estate agent nodded to him and led Lin Li into the residential complex.

The community consists of six six-story buildings with a garden in the middle and trees planted all around, making it lush and shady.

"This is the community's public rest area. Our community's green coverage has reached over 60%."

The real estate agent led Lin Li to the first rental apartment. It was simply furnished, but the kitchen, bathroom, and bed were all provided.

"This apartment costs 150 yuan per month."

Lin Li glanced at it and nodded, "Let's go look at the second set!"

...

After viewing the three houses, Lin Li was most satisfied with the third one, which not only had a kitchen and bathroom, but also a bed, cabinets, sofa and curtains.

"This apartment is the best renovated, so it costs 200 yuan per month!"

"This set is fine!"

"Okay, we need to prepay 3 months' rent and 2 months' deposit, totaling 1000 yuan. We will also sign a written contract!"

Lin Li nodded and returned to the real estate center with the real estate agent.

After signing the contract and paying the money, Lin Li casually asked as she took the contract and keys, "Are there still houses for sale in this complex?"

"Yes, there are still quite a few houses that haven't been sold, including two-bedroom and one-living-room and three-bedroom and one-living-room apartments!"

How much is it per square meter?

"Auntie, the price depends on the orientation and floor. Different orientations and different floors have different prices, but the average price of the house is 1200 yuan per square meter."

1200 yuan per square meter!!!

This price made Lin Li very interested. You should know that in Shenzhen twenty years from now, the price of houses will be hundreds of times that of now, and in some places even more than a thousand times.

Once she earns money, she'll definitely buy several sets while the prices are still low!

Suppressing her excitement, Lin Liyang smiled, nodded to the real estate agent, and walked out of the agency center.

Now her only goal is!

Make money!!!

It was almost noon when Lin Li arrived at a secluded spot. She looked around but saw no one.

Take the small cart out of the space and put the food into the insulated container.

Let's make some money!

Upon arriving at the gate of the foreign-owned factory, Lin Li opened the insulated box, and the aroma of food wafted gently on the breeze. She adjusted the price on the loudspeaker and heard a clear, bright sound coming from it.

"Choose any two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, only 2 yuan per box!"

"Choose any two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, only 2 yuan per box!"

...

Before it had even played a few times, workers coming off duty, dressed in uniform, came to the cart.

"Auntie, I'll have a box!"

The young man handed over 2 yuan.

Lin Li quickly packed the two meat dishes and one vegetable dish he had chosen and handed them to him, saying, "Here you go! I've filled it to the brim!"

The young man took it and quickly took a bite. "Delicious, so delicious! Auntie, your cooking is amazing. I'll buy another box."

After saying that, he handed over another 2 yuan and chose two more meat dishes and one vegetable dish.

"These three dishes are delicious too, Auntie, your cooking is amazing!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Li's lips almost stretched into a wide grin. "As long as it suits your taste!"

Then……

Countless hands reached out with money, pushing the young man who had bought the boxed lunch out.

Lin Li was surrounded by the crowd until the food in the insulated box was completely emptied.
