Chapter 154 Wei Zhongmin’s visit(1/2)
Zhang Jinkui didn't ask any more questions. He chatted casually afterwards, asked Lin Fang if everything was settled at home, and then left.
But they didn't expect that as soon as they opened the door, they saw Zhang Keying standing at the door looking over, and they happened to bump into her. Their pretty faces turned red for a moment.
Zhang Jinkui twitched the corner of his mouth and sighed slightly in his heart: "Oh, as expected, the girl is an extrovert, so I can't keep her here!"
Zhang Keying quickly made an excuse and asked: "Uncle, you guys have agreed! Then I just have something to talk to Lin Fang!"
But Zhang Jinkui said with an old face: "Ke Ying, come here first, I have something to tell you!"
Zhang Keying was stunned for a moment and glanced at Lin Fang in surprise. She didn't quite understand why her uncle was so anxious.
"Uncle, I'm just going to have a few words with Lin Fang, it'll only take a minute!"
Zhang Keying said quickly.
But Zhang Jinkui didn't give her the slightest chance: "Come here first, and you can talk to me later if you have anything to say!"
Zhang Keying had no choice but to follow Zhang Jinkui into the room. Before entering, she looked at Lin Fang and asked with her eyes what the two of them had just said.
Lin Fang didn't give any hint, just smiled at her, turned around and went back to the room.
Just as I entered the room, the phone rang suddenly.
"Hello, who's there?"
Lin Fang picked it up and asked.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, we are at the front desk, and a gay man named Wei Zhongmin is looking for you, saying that he is your friend and has something very important!"
Wei Zhongmin?
Lin Fang was stunned for a moment. He had been waiting for so long and still hadn't heard from this guy. He didn't expect that he would find the Palace Hotel.
He never told the other party that his master was here.
Moreover, when the two first met, he was still working at Xinxin Clothing Store.
Things were a bit strange. Lin Fang frowned slightly, feeling that something was not quite right.
"Then let him come up, I'll wait for him in the room!"
Soon, there was a knock on the door. Lin opened the door, and it turned out to be Wei Zhongmin outside.
"Mr. Lin, you are indeed here, I have found you!"
As soon as they met, Wei Zhongmin hurriedly said, as if he had finally found his long-lost relative after all the hard work.
There was so much sincerity in those words that Lin Fang didn't notice any deception.
"Chief Wei, how did you find this place? Come in and sit down!"
Lin Fang asked Wei Zhongmin into the room and sat down on the sofa.
Wei Zhongmin looked around, looking at such a luxurious and large room, his eyes slowly filled with envy.
"Chief Wei, you came to see me. Is there any news about the house?"
It's okay not to say this, but as soon as he said it, Wei Zhongmin's expression was full of grievances.
"Mr. Lin, if I didn't come here to try my luck, I don't know when I would find you!"
Lin Fang was stunned: "Chief Wei, what do you mean? Didn't I leave you my phone number? You can call that number at any time. Even if I'm not here, someone will tell me!"
Wei Zhongmin said: "Mr. Lin, I have called you five or six times, but your girlfriend said she would tell you every time, but nothing happened.
Did you write me the wrong number?"
As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and placed it in front of Lin Fang.
Lin Fang was stunned. He looked at the note carefully and confirmed that the number was correct. It was the phone number of Xinxin Clothing Store.
"Wait a minute, who answered the call you just said you called?"
Lin Fang felt that Wei Zhongmin's words were a bit strange.
"Your girlfriend! You don't know?"
Wei Zhongmin was also a little confused.
He hesitated and said: "Anyway, it was a woman who answered the call. She sounded quite young. She claimed to be your girlfriend and she always said she would tell you.
But I really can't wait to hear from you. I suspect that the number you gave me may have been written incorrectly. I remembered that you lived here years ago, so I wanted to come here and try to find it.
After asking at the front desk, I learned that you had gone out recently, so I stopped making that call and came here to look for you three times. Today is the third time. I finally waited until you came back!"
Lin Fang finally understood. The first two times Wei Zhongmin came to see him should have been the days when he took Zhang Keying home.
It's just that Wei Zhongmin said that someone calls herself his girlfriend, which is a bit strange.
"Is it Yu Xin?"
Lin Fang's eyes turned cold.
When he left the store the next two times, Yu Xin's eyes were very abnormal.
"Mr. Lin, are you sure this number is correct?"
Lin Fang smiled and said: "Let's talk about the phone call later. Let's talk about the house first. Is there any news?"
Wei Zhongmin smiled bitterly and said: "I inquired about the three houses a month ago, but I just couldn't contact you.
Among them are a small bungalow on Wuding Road, an apartment on Wusong Road, and an old house with a yard across from the old dock.
I have personally visited the house. The small bungalow is nice. It looks foreign-style and has a garden outside. I heard that it used to be lived in by foreigners from the concession. It is well-preserved inside and there are many books and papers.
Lots of furniture and, yes, a piano!
The apartment is upstairs and is more than 60 square meters. It is absolutely no problem for a family to live in. It is not too small in Shanghai.
Although the small yard opposite the old dock is a farmhouse, it is very large. The land in Lujiazui has been expropriated. The location of this house is not far from there, and is only a hundred or ten meters away from the Huangpu River. It will definitely be there in the future.
It will be taxed, and you will definitely not lose money if you buy it.
If I didn’t really have money, if I had money, I would buy it directly!”
Having said this, Wei Zhongmin suddenly showed a helpless expression and said: "I can't find you for so long. I only found out yesterday that the bungalow on Wuding Road and the apartment on Wusong Road have been bought by others.
Now only the small courtyard of the old dock is still there!
But don’t worry, as long as you still want to buy it, I’ll find it for you!”
He couldn't find Lin Fang before, so he didn't inquire about other houses. Now that he finally found Lin Fang, everything was easier to handle.
Lin Fang nodded: "Okay, then you can continue to help me inquire about the house. By the way, take me to see the courtyard of the old wharf when you have time!"
As he spoke, he turned around, went to take out some money from his bag, counted five hundred-dollar bills, took them out, and placed them in front of Wei Zhongmin!
"Chief Wei, thank you for your hard work!
After I decide which house to buy, I will get another reward!"
When Wei Zhongmin saw Lin Fang give him 500 yuan directly, his heart beat wildly several times.
In fact, he hasn't done much in the past month or so, and the travel expenses don't cost much.
Unexpectedly, I got 500 yuan directly, which is much better than going to work.
And Lin Fang has already said that this is not the reward for finding a house, it is just the hard work fee.
The grievances in Wei Zhongmin's heart disappeared immediately, and he felt that all the hard work for so long was finally in vain.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin. I will continue to help you inquire about new houses as soon as I get back. I will help you inquire about the yard opposite the old dock in the next two days, and I will get back to you soon!"
Lin Fang nodded: "Please remember my phone number here. If you have news later, just call this number. You don't need to call that number again!"
He had already guessed that Yu Xin was up to something, so he would not expose it for the time being.
As for the future, let her take care of herself. He has already reminded Li Xinyuan where she should be reminded. If he is still wary, he will not interfere too much.
Wei Zhongmin quickly agreed and immediately wrote down the new phone number in his notebook.
"Mr. Lin, do you have a pager? It would be easier for me to contact you if you give me your number!"
After being asked by Wei Zhongmin, Lin Fang suddenly remembered that he really should buy a pager.
He had never been able to think about it before, mainly because he looked down on such old-fashioned communication equipment.
But now there is no more convenient way to contact us.
As for Big Brother, he really doesn't want to bring that thing.
The phone signal is really poor, and it's as dead as a brick.
But now I really need a pager, it is indeed more convenient to contact me!
Lin Fang was a little embarrassed: "I don't have a pager yet. I'll buy it later and tell you the number."
Wei Zhongmin was a little surprised. He didn't expect that a rich man like Lin Fang didn't have a pager.
But it's not surprising. He heard that many rich people always have some quirks. Some like to find young girls, while others like to imitate Lao Cao, and others just like to spend a lot of money to play with birds.
Thinking of this, he didn't care anymore.
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved. I'll go find out about the new house for you right now!"
