Chapter 80: Second Landlord (Part )
For a time, the rich and powerful were all in danger. The powerful feared being plotted against by their successors, and the successors feared being plotted against by their second successors. There was even a saying that divorce was worse than hiring a killer, which meant that it was more cost-effective to divorce your husband or wife than to hire a killer.
Insurance companies have not only begun to strictly review the life insurance of the rich, but also started to raise the threshold for similar insurance. In response to this, many netizens are gloating and watching the excitement without fear of big trouble. After all, their entire fortune cannot afford to hire a killer for Chunque, so what is there to fear?
Cui Jian did not believe that such cases would erupt in a concentrated manner within half a month. It was obvious that the mastermind behind the scenes deliberately released them in a concentrated manner to cause class panic.
The biggest beneficiary of this series of events is naturally the security company. As the saying goes, you have bodyguards, he doesn't have bodyguards, who will the kidnappers go to? However, the plan of Hancheng Security Company to absorb three local security companies was stopped by the court on the grounds that the court does not allow such blatant monopoly behavior. In the end, Hancheng Security Company only acquired two security companies, Jumu and Linshi. The chaebols increased the investment in Dayin Security Company under Dayin Group, allowing the two security companies to maintain competitive strength on the surface, thus avoiding monopoly penalties.
Dayin Security thus became the eighth company in the Security Alliance. On the surface, Dayin Security and Hancheng Security were separated very cleanly, but in fact, the controlling rights were still in the hands of the three major financial groups and chaebols of varying sizes. The difference was that the big bosses behind Hancheng Security were the Li family and the Lin family, while the big boss behind Dayin Security was the Ye family.
In the past few months, the Bodyguard Academy has expanded greatly, and has been frantically building school buildings and dormitories. The Security Academy is also recruiting students through its internal system.
……
The last dinner was held at Han Meili's home. In addition to the residents of Villa No. 27 and the father of Villa No. 26, the old lady also attended the farewell dinner specially held for Cui Jian. In the past month or so, Cui Jian has integrated well into the life of the neighborhood, and everyone feels sad to see him go. Cui Jian finally raised a Coke and said that he would definitely come to visit everyone when he is free.
Cui Jian's new residence is in the Tropical Community near the city center. It is a 24-story high-rise apartment building with complete property management and a parking space ratio of 1:1.5. It is a very good high-end community. Cui Jian's residence is even better. It is on the top floor of the 24th floor. Although it has two bedrooms and a living room, it comes with an independent sun room on the roof. The price is not high, with a monthly rent of only 300 million. The rent of the same house is as high as 1200 million per month.
That's right, this is another haunted house that Yu Ming helped to select, but even if it is a haunted house, it still needs 800 million yuan in rent. But Cui Jian has a Taoist certificate and promised to catch ghosts for free. In addition, Yu Ming deceived him and finally signed a one-year lease for 300 million yuan per month.
There are two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom. The furniture is simple but complete. There are two sunrooms with transparent awnings and a laundry room on the roof. Another one is more than 40 square meters, with more than a dozen foam boxes filled with soil, in which tomatoes, fish mint, and even potatoes and sweet potatoes are planted.
In addition to these crops, Cui Jian was very satisfied with the living conditions. He downloaded a software and rented out another room for 500 million yuan. Office workers are preferred, preferably those who work seven days a week from am to pm. Cui Jian didn't really want to share a house with others, but he didn't have a stable job at the moment, so every penny he could earn was a penny he could earn. Cui Jian believed that with his own vision, he could definitely pick a tenant who would pay the rent steadily, be less troublesome and have a good temper.
As for the question of whether he felt guilty about making a profit of 200 million, Cui Jian certainly denied it. He has both a Taoist certificate and a bodyguard certificate. No matter whether he is facing people or ghosts, he can play a certain role in calming the situation.
During the three days of living in the apartment, Cui Jian met seven potential tenants. After all, the conditions were really good and the price was not high. But Cui Jian was not satisfied with them. The one who met the most conditions was a white-collar manager who worked six days a week from 9 am to 8 pm. Her conditions were okay, but she had a boyfriend, so there might be an extra tenant.
As Cui Jian met with the prospective tenant, he asked more and more conditions for renting the house. In the end, he felt that they were too much and simply deleted the rental information. Isn't it just 300 million per month?
Less than ten minutes after deleting the message, Cui Jian received another call from a girl who wanted to rent an apartment. The girl's voice was a little soft and sticky. After hearing the purpose of the call, Cui Jian replied, "Sorry, I don't want to rent it anymore."
The girl was a little anxious: "I can pay more."
"More money?" Cui Jian thought that if he could increase the rent, he could support himself without working.
The girl replied: "Well, I'm willing to pay 700 million."
It’s really hard to refuse such sincerity, so let’s meet.
The meeting place was a small park in the community. When the two looked at each other, the girl's eyes widened immediately and pointed at Cui Jian: "Pay back the money."
This woman turned out to be the milk tea girl? Cui Jian vaguely remembered that he had spilled the girl's milk tea, and then...
Facing the aggressive, imposing, and cutely puffy-faced milk tea girl, Choi Jian took out his phone, opened the KKT app, and found that the number of messages was 99+, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Although KKT is one of the most popular social apps in South Korea, Choi Jian never uses social apps, let alone opens them.
I clicked on it and saw a receipt from the laundry room, as well as text and voice messages, one thing: 40 yuan for dry cleaning. The last message was the desperate voice of a girl: You want to refuse to pay even 40 yuan, you scumbag.
The girl's name is Ye Rannuo. She stood on tiptoe and stretched her head to look at Cui Jian's screen. She squinted her eyes and looked at Cui Jian out of the corner of her eyes. As soon as Cui Jian put away his phone, he complained first and asked, "Why didn't you call me?"
Ye Rannuo said confidently: "I have made countless video calls to you."
Cui Jian: "I never read messages." Set up Do Not Disturb.
Ye Rannuo: "I never make phone calls." Cui Jian admitted that he was in the wrong and took out his phone: "Scan the code."
The transaction was completed. Ye Rannuo said: "I want to rent your house."
Cui Jian asked: "How many hours do you work every day?"
Ye Rannuo: "I am a network worker and I am at home every day."
Cui Jian: “No rent.”
Ye Rannuo said angrily: "I want to rent it."
Cui Jian laughed: "I don't even want to rent it, so how can you rent it?"
Ye Rannuo: "If you don't rent it to me, I will tell the landlord that you are a second-hand landlord."
Cui Jian was stunned, thought for a while, and searched on his mobile phone: Is it legal to be a second-hand landlord?
Ye Rannuo stretched her head to look, but Cui Jian didn't let her. Ye Rannuo took out her phone and waved it: "I've taken a screenshot."
Cui Jian collected his phone and looked at Ye Rannuo. Ye Rannuo changed his expression again and smiled sweetly: "I can be responsible for cleaning the public areas."
Cui Jian then asked, "Why do you want to rent my house?"
Ye Rannuo: "I don't want to rent your house, but I want to rent a similar house nearby."
Since Hancheng Central City is a commercial area, there are a lot of office workers. Most of the residents in the Tropical Community and the two nearby communities are high-level office workers. The biggest reason for renting there is that they are close to the company and save commuting time.
Take the tropical community as an example. Not to mention the sunrooms, even the vacant ordinary houses are pitifully few. If Yu Ming had not been a brother and had not set up a ghost in the first place, Cui Jian would not have been able to get this house. That's right, the "ghost" was set up by Yu Ming. Isn't this a lie? But Yu Ming never said that he doesn't lie.
Cui Jian understood the situation and was even more confused: "Since you work from home, why do you rent a house here?"
Ye Rannuo replied: "Because I work at Dayin Company."
Dayin Group is less than three kilometers away from the Tropical Community. Ye Rannuo is a technician in the computer department of Dayin Group. She is responsible for the network security of Dayin Group and occasionally needs to visit the group company.
Cui Jiangeng was even more confused: "Why don't you go to work as a technician?"
Ye Rannuo took out the ID card from his shirt pocket, pointed at the words on it, and looked at Cui Jian: "Special technician, P7, Ye Rannuo."
P7? No wonder he is so rich. Cui Jian looked at Ye Rannuo and found that he had overlooked the key point: "Ye Rannuo, Ye family?"
Ye Rannuo was dissatisfied: "I have nothing to do with the Ye family. Please pay attention to the key points: special, special, special technicians."
Cui Jian was surprised: "Are you a hacker?"
Ye Rannuo: "You are a hacker, your whole family are hackers."
Cui Jian: "I'm praising you."
Ye Rannuo: "Hacker is a name for people who commit cyber crimes. And I am the natural enemy of hackers: a cyber security expert."
