At noon the next day after making an appointment with Lao Chen and Lao Qian, Lao Chen called and said that Lao Qian had made arrangements. Because the weather was relatively hot during the day, the viewing was scheduled for 4 p.m.

As we set off, the weather was cooler.

I didn't have any objections. I made a little preparation and waited for Lao Chen to pick me up.

This mission seems to have the largest number of attendees. Me, Er Miao, Old Chen and Old Man Qian all came out of the cave.

The homeowner led the way. He drove a black Land Rover. Mr. Qian and the homeowner were sitting in the Land Rover.

Lao Chen's car followed behind, with Ermiao and I sitting in the car.

While driving, Lao Chen was still talking, and what he said was full of envy and jealousy: "Look, this homeowner is really rich. Look at the car he drives, and look at our shabby car."

Che, alas... people are more likely to die than others..."

I don't like the landlord, mainly because of the business he runs, hmm, a loan sharking company. Is this a business run by a law-abiding person?

"Old Chen, we don't need to envy him. His money may not come easily..." I advised Old Chen.

"Yes, it's really disgusting to find some unscrupulous people to collect debts after loan sharking. There are many examples of people being ransacked by debt collection companies and having trouble sleeping and eating. However, there are some people who borrow money and just don't pay back.

, this is also quite irritating..."

As Lao Chen is older, he thinks more comprehensively.

He is right. There are indeed some people who just like to borrow money without repaying it, and they are all friends or relatives. Such people do need to be repaired by a debt collection agency to relieve their anger.

Driving all the way...

The direction of driving this time is different from that of going to the seaside. The seaside drove towards the east, but this time we drove towards the north.

It takes about the same amount of time. If you drive east, you can get close to the seaside, and if you drive north, you can enter the mountains.

After about 2 hours of driving, we could see the rolling mountain peaks in the distance.

Although this house is a bit far away, the scenery is really good and the air is fresh. It is indeed suitable for retirement.

After entering the mountainous area, the road gradually slopes upward and the car begins to climb.

The high-end car in front made no effort at all, but Lao Chen's car was a little weak, and it was a bit difficult to climb the hill.

There was not much gossip on the way, and after a while, we came to a courtyard.

What Old Man Qian said is right. The environment here is really good. You can climb the mountain in half an hour's walk. Especially in autumn, the scenery here is the most beautiful.

And I also found that the temperature in the mountainous area is obviously much lower than that in the city. The cool mountain breeze blows on my face and body. As soon as I get off the car, I can feel refreshed all over my body.

Parking the car at the door, the owner got out of the car first. This was the first time I saw this small loan shark boss up close.

This man was in his mid-thirties, with a medium build, neither fat nor thin, and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He was completely different from the loan shark criminals in my mind, and he looked a bit polite.

Like Lao Chen, this person is also a person who has been repeatedly tempered in society. He is very polite when he speaks.

Seeing us getting out of the car together, he took out his keys and pointed to a high-grade security door and said: "This is my house. I originally planned to live in it by myself, but I didn't expect what happened. Alas... money

The Taoist Master should have said it, so I won’t mention it anymore. Come in with me!”

It was a high-end-looking anti-theft door. The surface was made of black metal and welded with many complicated European patterns. The door lock was secured by both a password and a key.

When the homeowner entered the password, I deliberately observed it and indeed saw some white powder remaining in the cracks of the door.

I don't know if this is dust or traces of the ashes that were originally thrown on it?

Don't know why?

I just feel weird when I see the remaining white powder?

Because the landlord didn’t want to talk more about this matter, let alone explain it, so we didn’t mention the ashes...

The door opens and you enter the courtyard.

The yard is really not small, and the house is bigger than I imagined. During the renovation, I built flower beds under the walls, but I haven’t planted any flowers yet.

At first, Mr. Qian said it was a bungalow. I thought it was a bungalow in the countryside. In fact, it is not. The house here also looks like a small second-story building. The ground floor is higher and the roof of the second floor is sloping, so

The second floor is more like an attic.

The slanted side is all made of glass. I estimate that if the bedroom is in the attic, you can see the starry sky while lying on the bed.

Moreover, the air in the mountainous area is very clean and the visibility is high. At night, it must be a wonderful picture of stars...

If you lie in bed with your beloved girl and count the stars together, it will be so romantic just thinking about it...

After entering the room, I felt that this house was really good. Not to mention the solid materials, it was almost completely new, and I could still smell the residual smell of some decoration materials.

However, there was no furniture or anything in the room, so it must have been vacated by the owner.

This also shows that he is very taboo about this house, which may have left some psychological shadow, and he definitely does not want to continue living here.

After the landlord took us upstairs and downstairs, he didn't find anything unusual. Mr. Qian even took out his compass and didn't see any problems.

Then, the owner of the house walked over to Lao Chen and discussed with him whether one person could stay in the house overnight. If it turned out that there was nothing wrong with the house, could the price be increased?

The homeowner also said that his loan company has closed down and he doesn't plan to do this business anymore, so he doesn't have much money on hand now and wants to sell the house and do something else.

Lao Chen showed an expression that said, "I must be thinking about you." He said to the homeowner in a serious voice, "This house is indeed nice, and the scenery is nice, but..."

When I heard the long "but" coming out of Lao Chen's mouth, I knew that this guy had no good intentions.

This is a trick used by Lao Chen, a veteran, which is to "praise first and then kill", which can also be called "first promote and then suppress"!

In the first two sentences, I first talk about the advantages of the house to make the homeowner listen and relax, and then start talking about the disadvantages.

Sure enough, after Lao Chen's "but", there was nothing good to say next...

"This house is indeed nice, and the scenery is good, but..." Lao Chen persuaded with a sincere look, "However, no matter how good the house is, it cannot be compared with the housing prices in the city. After all, this is a mountainous area, and various living facilities are not

It is inconvenient and the road is far away. It is said to be a nursing home, but there is not even a decent hospital around it, but there is one in the cemetery. Therefore, you want to make a move as soon as possible. The offer cannot be too high. If it is too high, you may not even look at the house.

No one is willing to travel so far to view a house..."

The landlord bit his molars and felt quite unhappy, but what Lao Chen said was not completely unreasonable!
Chapter completed!
