Chapter 85 The Shadow House
When Lao Chen saw that I still didn't speak, he asked anxiously: "Xiao Ma, why don't you say something?"
"Humph, Old Chen, there is a new building with five floors. Almost no one has lived in it. The owner is eager to sell it at less than half the average house price. There is nothing wrong with this house. Are you lying?"
"Don't worry, Xiaoma," Lao Chen probably knew that I was no longer as easy to fool as before. He stretched out his hands and explained, "I'm not lying to you. Just now you kept asking me if those five houses were haunted houses. I
I have always explained to you that the house is not a haunted house and has nothing to do with the haunted house. I did not lie to you, but you also did not ask me, what is wrong with that house? "
I slammed the table hard and said dissatisfiedly: "Old Chen, I don't have time to play this kind of word game with you. Otherwise, you can go find Er Miao. Er Miao's father is capable. If Er Miao gets into trouble,
What dirty things are there? Uncle Meow and Old Man Qian will wipe your butts. Anyway, I don’t want to be a sleep tester in a haunted house anymore..."
"How many times have I said it, isn't it a haunted house?" Lao Chen shook his head and continued to explain, "Moreover, your working hours this time are not 24 hours, they are basically concentrated at night, and they will not exceed 12 hours at most. I also
Instead of charging you by the minute, why not just give you 2,000 yuan?
How about? If the house is sold smoothly in the future, if the house is really sold for 3 million, I can get 300,000 in dividends. Xiaoma, I will also give you 10% as a reward. 10% of the 300,000 can be
It’s just 30,000 yuan, you got 30,000 yuan for nothing, why don’t you buy something?”
yes!
30,000 yuan is really a lot of money?
The reward mentioned by Lao Chen is really tempting!!!
Maybe you rich people can't understand our poor mentality. Let me make a comparison. If we were to take on a design job worth 30,000 yuan, it would definitely be considered a big deal.
It’s a lot of money, but after accepting the order, I have to make a design draft in black and white. After I’m done, I have to show it to Party A’s dad, and maybe I’ll be criticized by Party A’s dad, or make various suggestions.
There were various suggestions for revision, and then I had to continue revising it over and over again day and night.
When you can get the money, you may have to work for ten days or even a month.
Compared with the tedious design work, the job Lao Chen said is much easier.
I only need to stay in the house for sale for one night, and I will get 2,000 yuan in cash right away. Then, if Lao Chen sells the house, I can still get 30,000 yuan in dividends.
Even if the house is not sold in the end, I can earn 2,000 yuan just for one night's sleep and I won't suffer any loss.
Many things are afraid of comparison. After such a comparison, the job Lao Chen introduced to me feels countless times better than the design work.
But then again, money is easy to make, but the risk factor is definitely not low.
Although designing at home is a bit harder, you won’t necessarily attract those dirty things...
Just when I was weighing the pros and cons with my head down, Lao Chen unusually did not keep urging me, because Lao Chen, an old man like me, had already noticed that I was attracted.
He deliberately didn't speak, just to let me think clearly, so that the success rate would be higher.
After waiting for five or six minutes, Lao Chen became a little impatient. He changed his tone and said: "Xiao Ma, don't make a decision in a hurry. You can think about it carefully. The landlord is not so anxious...
…”
Listening to Lao Chen's strong tone before, it suddenly changed. I don't know why, I suddenly felt a sense of loss in my heart, as if the money was going to slip away?
The more this happens, the more I want to grab it in a hurry!!!
Lao Chen has been in sales for more than 20 years. He must have studied human psychology. This is not the first time that he has used the trick of playing hard to get on me.
But after all, I am not very experienced in the world, I am only in my twenties, and I am always manipulated by Lao Chen.
Therefore, I didn't realize at all that I had fallen into Lao Chen's trap...
Sure enough, I followed Old Chen's words and asked: "Old Chen, you haven't touched on the key point. Since no one has died in that house, and it is not a haunted house, what is the problem with that house that forces it to be sold at a discount?
!”
When I asked the key, Lao Chen laughed out loud. He already knew that I had taken the bait.
Then, Lao Chen said with a smile: "The house I asked you to try sleeping in has no problems from the 1st to the 5th floor. Moreover, only the 1st floor has been occupied by people. The 2nd to 4th floors are still simply decorated.
For a rough house, you only need to walk upstairs and downstairs at night according to the requirements of the customers watching the live broadcast. When it gets bright, the work will be completed, and then you will wait to get the money!"
Lao Chen said it very simply, but the more he said that the house was fine and safe, the more nervous and guilty I became!
Why don't you tell me directly that that house is a very sinister and sinister house, and I will be less nervous and curious?!
After my questioning, Lao Chen finally told the truth...
There have been no accidents in these five houses, and no one has died. There is indeed no problem, but there seems to be a problem next door to the house...
I was confused when I heard it???
When selling a house, do you still need to worry about the next door?!
Then, Lao Chen continued to explain that these five houses are all in the same building, and that building only has five floors.
The whole building is a rectangle with a small brick building with a peak on the roof.
The structure and apartment layout are very good. The only bad thing is that the location of the building is not very good.
Just in the direction of Chaoyang, a high-rise building has recently been built. It is a huge commercial office building with more than 20 floors.
The high-rise buildings are rising from the ground, so the sunny side of this small brick building is blocked.
Therefore, this house rarely sees sunlight throughout the day, and is commonly known as the "shady building".
Ordinary residents like to buy houses with good lighting. The sunlight is blocked by the building and all the windows become shaded.
As a result, this building is not very easy to sell.
Later, someone approached the upper level of the real estate company and bought all the five floors on the dark side at a very low price. As for what they were used for, I will definitely talk about this later.
However, there is still some sunlight that can shine in on the other side of this building. It is not directly facing the sun, but some sunset light can be projected in when the sun is about to set.
Because the price is relatively low, many people want to buy the houses on this side. For example, the first floor was the first to be sold. After simple decoration, the owner hurriedly moved in.
result……
The family had lived there for less than half a month and discovered some strange problems?!
The strange thing was not that they saw any monsters, but the smell. The family felt that they could always smell a strange smell in the house?
Some people may see this and think that since it is a newly renovated house, some peculiar smell is inevitable.
However, that smell is definitely not the residual smell of paint and coatings.
So what does it taste like?
If you have been to a temple, you can probably understand this strange smell!
That's right, it's the smell of fireworks burning incense candles?
What's even stranger is...
The smell of burning incense candles and fireworks does not appear occasionally, especially at night. Instead, it continues to get stronger and stronger, as if it is seeping in from the wall next door...
