"It's just collecting rent, right? I, your cousin, will collect it for you. No need for compensation. I don't want my money." Yang Weihua said, scratching his head.
"Cousin, managing a house is not as simple as collecting rent. It also requires maintenance. When someone moves out, you have to find a way to rent it out, and so on. It's very cumbersome. You've wasted your time and energy, so you deserve a certain amount of compensation." Qiao Mo couldn't let Yang Weihua do it for nothing. Helping once or twice was fine, but asking for help for a long time would annoy even the closest people.
She had no choice but to find a minor to do this: not only was she new in the place and didn't know anyone except the Qiao family, she also had no reliable relatives or friends, so she could only find Yang Weihua, who she trusted relatively more.
"I know all this, and it won't take long. I just did it. You don't have to be polite to me, cousin."
"Cousin, if you don't want to take the money, I will find someone else. If I get cheated, I will cry in front of you." Seeing that he insisted on not taking the money, Qiao Mo had to use his trump card.
"Momo, how could you do this?" Yang Weihua looked at her helplessly.
"Cousin, my uncle's family is so cruel and ruthless, and I don't know anyone else. You are the only person I trust in this world. If you are not willing to help me, I will never find anyone else." Qiao Mo was about to cry.
"I didn't say I wouldn't help you." Yang Weihua became anxious when he saw her sad look and hurriedly explained.
"But I can't let you do it for free, and I'm not short of money." Qiao Mo said with a pout.
"Okay, I promise you, whatever you say is what it is." Yang Weihua nodded repeatedly.
"That's right. Come on, I'll take you to meet those tenants and sign a new agreement with them, telling them that the rent can only be paid to you in the future." Seeing that Yang Weihua was relieved, he happily pulled him back to his home.
Although Qiao Chengsong worked at the steel plant, he did not build his house there. He felt that the air there was bad and there was a lot of dust coming out of the factory. Living there for a long time was not good for his health. So he bought a piece of land in Hedong, near the school where Mu Ling taught, and built a house there.
That place is still considered a suburb now, and there is only one notable university nearby. The reason why her house can be rented out is because of this university.
At that time, all the college students were recommended from the agricultural and military colleges. Many of them had already started families, and it was inevitable that some of them would bring their families to school, so there was a market for renting houses.
At the beginning, the land there was very cheap. Mu Ling was gentle and kind, and was well-liked by students and their parents. She was very popular there. When the villagers heard that her family was going to build a house, they gave her the lowest price. Qiao Chengsong thought that it was far from the city and it would be difficult to buy vegetables there, so he needed to build a vegetable garden, so he bought an acre of land. The measurement was loose and there were some corners that others didn't want, so her house occupied a relatively large area.
It's not certain in the future. According to the plot of the book, more than ten years later, that area will become the Special Economic Zone of Donghai University, and the largest university town in the east will also be located there. Her house will become part of the pedestrian street of the university town. By then, her not-so-valuable house will become a hen that lays golden eggs. She doesn't have to do anything, and the rent will be enough for her food and drink.
Unfortunately, the original house had already turned into a pile of yellow earth by then, and we could no longer see the Qiao family fighting over that house, and the brothers becoming enemies.
