After an ex became a landlord

"Miss Zhu, this room is a rare two-room room in the community. It is close to the subway, has a good orientation, and is well-decorated. I haven't lived in it yet after the renovation, so 5000 a month, one deposit and one payment, is already the minimum that the landlord gave me. psychological price."

Zhu Xu gritted his teeth.

The gift she gave herself on her 28th birthday was to completely pay off her family's debts, and then return to City H after a job-hopping.Now the savings in hand are less than 1 yuan, which is a bit beyond the budget.

But after looking at the rooms all morning, this was the only one that caught her eye at first sight.

Simple decoration style, old record players, and a whole bookshelf of Hazel.

It was her favorite author, and she once had a whole cabinet of Hazel, but it was a pity that they were all sold a few years ago.

Zhu Xu softened his voice, and begged a little: "Can you talk to the landlord, can you make it cheaper to help?"

"If the budget is limited, I can recommend a shared single room for you." The intermediary sister's tone was a little awkward: "This lady landlord has a weird temper. She said that if she is not sincere, she will not rent it." The price is too high Not to mention, the tenants are limited to single women, and they have to ask for a video, and only those who are close to the eyes can rent it, so after two months, the tenants with more than two hands in the video still haven't been rented out.

Zhu Xu thought for a while: "Can you let me communicate with the landlord?"

The intermediary said yes, then rummaged through the address book and started pulling groups.

"The profile picture is my own." The agent pointed to Zhu Xu's WeChat and asked, "Wearing a suit and tie, quite formal."

"Well, because of work, we need to use our real name and formula to take photos on WeChat." Zhu Xu, who went out without makeup in a T-shirt and shorts on the rest day, scratched his eyebrows and laughed twice, "P is a bit too much."

The intermediary is curious: "Insurance industry?"

Zhu Xu: "...the trainer."

The intermediary lady showed an expression that I understood, that she made a lot of money, said "Oh", and stopped talking.

Then click on the friend named "Zhu Xu", and then click on a friend named "Junhao Phase II 3-2802 Ms. Feng", and formed a small group of three.

WeChat pops up a prompt box.

["Shunlian Real Estate Lihua" invites you, "Old Pig Farm Breeder" to enter the group chat]

Zhu Xu:?

This landlord's id is quite unique.

The profile picture is a pink and black pet little fragrant pig. Its buttocks are pouted to face the camera. There is a white hand pulling its tail. The fingers are very slender and it is pulled very hard. From the photo, it feels that the owner is very fond of this pig. The little pig has deep resentment.

He seems to be a real pig lover.

No matter what, Zhu Xu, who has always been proactive, decided to cut to the chase with sincerity.

Zhu Xu: Hello, Ms. Feng, I like your house very much, and I intend to rent it as a whole

Zhu Xu: I am single, do not take anyone overnight, do not keep pets, have a legitimate job, regular work and rest, no bad habits, slight cleanliness, and will treat your house well

Zhu Xu: The profile picture is me

In the photos of the beautiful sister Yu, who even his mother wouldn't recognize, Zhu Xu threw away his old face in order to earn some impression points.

Zhu Xu: And I also like Hazel

Zhu Xu: Could it be cheaper?

The agent reminded: "The landlord is in the UK, and it is midnight now, so he may not be able to see it."

Then the next second, the person with the profile picture of a pig replied in seconds.

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: Yes.

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: How much do you want?

Since he was unexpectedly straightforward, Zhu Xu was not polite.

Knowing how to bargain, she bravely made a price.

Zhu Xu: 3800?

The intermediary lady gasped.

This cut off 1200, and then the two struggled for a while, and finally settled on 4400. Everyone is happy-this is Miss Zhu's fantasy.

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: No.

Well, as expected.

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: 1000.

Zhu Xu:? ? ?

She suspected that she was wrong.

Either there is something wrong with her eyes, or something wrong with the landlord's mind.

The intermediary thinks that both the tenant who opened his mouth and the landlord who is inexplicable may have something wrong.

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: Do you live alone?

Zhu Xu: I plan to rent the whole set first, and then find a suitable roommate from my colleagues

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: No need to look for it

Passionate pig farm breeder: It just so happens that I will return to China next month and sleep in the second bedroom

Outdated pig farm breeder: The master bedroom is rented to you at a monthly rent of 1000

Passionate Pig Farm Breeder: I like your schedule and background very much. In addition, I am about the same age as you, and I am also a woman. I understand your difficulties, so I will give you some discounts

Passionate Pig Farm Breeder: Do you have any questions?

The intermediary made a cold sweat expression.

Shunlian Real Estate Lihua: Well, Miss Feng, I think there is still a problem...

Her agency fee is linked to the rent, 10 points are charged on both sides, and the 5000 becomes 1000. She has lost a lot, and the agency fee of 200 yuan is not enough for the electricity bill of her electric car for the past two months.

Private chat interface.

Passionate pig farm breeder: [Transfer 1000 yuan to you]

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: Still have questions?

intermediary:"……"

Three people chatting.

-"Sunlian Real Estate Lihua" withdrew a group message-

Sunlian Real Estate Lihua: Ms. Zhu, I think it's all right

Shunlian Real Estate Lihua: If it is convenient, sign the electronic contract now

Passionate pig farm breeder: Yes

Zhu Xu: Oh...

no problem?

It seems to be ok, but there seems to be something strange.

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: Wait a minute

Old-fashioned pig farm breeder: In order to confirm your identity, it is not a wretched man who is lying to me

Passionate pig farm breeder: Take a video when signing the contract

Now rent a house and still have to video?Zhu Xu felt a little confused, but the agent said that this landlord is like this, she still opened a group video, clicked on her iPhone's dead front camera, and suddenly looked a lot different from the profile picture, a haggard face of a 28-year-old social animal woman flashed on the screen.

Zhu Xu laughed awkwardly.

"Sorry, I'm a bit of a cheater, but I'm not a wretched man!"

On the opposite side is the rear view, showing the opponent's desktop, European-style decoration, a closed Apple computer, and a dim desk lamp.

It was only then that Zhu Xu remembered that it was midnight over there.

Working overtime late at night, it seems that no matter which country's social animals it is, it is not easy.

The other side was silent for half a minute before using a very low female voice: "Yes."

Then the video call was cut off.

It seemed that after watching her for 30 seconds, it was really just to confirm her gender.

Inexplicably, Zhu Xu felt that this single syllable was strangely familiar.

When signing the electronic contract, she paid attention to the other party's signature, the ghostly English name. She stared at it for a long time, but she couldn't figure out why.

Zhu Xu felt that there was something wrong with him too.

There are tens of thousands of women surnamed Feng in this country. Whenever she meets one, does she have to think of her unbearable first love once?It has been almost six years since the love affair with Xiaobanhua's roommate ended. If love has a grave, the grass on the grave may be three meters high.

What else is there to worry about.

Although the intermediary lady did not charge her 100 yuan agency fee, this matter also made Zhu Xu very puzzled, but the high-intensity work for the whole afternoon left her with no time to take care of these insignificant emotions, so until nine o'clock in the evening, After finishing three consecutive lectures, Zhu Xu turned on his phone which had been silent for five hours, and there were four unread records lying quietly there, all of which were group chats.

-4:20pm-

Passionate pig farm breeder: @朱旭 will soon be a roommate

Passionate pig farm breeder: I added you as a friend, you can pass it when you have time

-6:30pm-

Outdated pig farm breeder:?

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: Haven't gotten off work yet?

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: Asleep?Turned into a pig?

-8:00pm-

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: [Pig Head][Pig Head][Pig Head]*10

[The outdated pig farm breeder initiated a group voice]

[The outdated pig farm breeder canceled the group voice]

-9:00pm-

Shunlian Real Estate Lihua: ... that

Shunlian Real Estate Lihua: Ms. Feng, how about I quit this group first

Outdated Pig Farm Breeder: No

Passionate pig farm breeder: Wait until my tenant adds me as a friend before you return.

Zhu Xu laughed out loud as he ate instant noodles for a snack at 711.

Although I have never met her before, this Miss Feng, who is about to become a roommate, is quite cute.
