Chapter 15

Household Fiber

After packing up the things he carried with him, Cheng Nuo put on his clothes and said goodbye to Wencong.

"Wencong, I'll go out to see the house today and come back tonight. You have to take responsibility for your brother, take medicine for your sister on time, and take good care of her."

"I put some broken money on the desk. You can buy some brunch by yourself. If I come back too late, you can also solve the supper by yourself."

After touching Wencong's head and asking him for a few words, Cheng Nuo turned his gaze to the bed, and was still a little worried about this little patient.

However, this movement had already awakened Wenhui, who was lying on the bed. Out of shyness, she still dared not open her eyes, but her eyelashes were jumping nervously.

After seeing this, Cheng Nuo smiled slightly and decided to make a bad joke to the little girl, so he made Wencong silence gesture.

Then he made a sound on purpose, opened the door and closed it, creating a movement that had already left, but in fact he was still in the room.

Wenhui thought that the husband had left and was not so tight, so she stood up and prepared to take a look.

Cheng Nuo happened to hit this scene, and his eyes were facing each other, and he hid his head in the quilt with a loud noise.

At this time, Cheng Nuo laughed like a bad uncle who had succeeded in his plan.

Before leaving, he did not forget to give his instructions: "Wencong must remember to take medicine for his sister on time, and I will check it when I come back."

After saying that, he left.

When talking about houses in old Peking City, the first impression of ordinary people is the courtyard house, so after Cheng Nuo left, he headed straight to Peking University to see if there are any suitable housing in the nearby alleys.

In fact, in addition to the Siheyuan, the guild hall is also a good choice.

Originally, the construction of the association was just to serve fellow villagers who came to Beijing for the imperial examinations, establish emotional bonds, and develop official connections.

However, with the development of the times, the form of guild halls has also changed, and commercial guild halls, industrial guild halls, industry guild halls, etc. After investigation on the eve of liberation, there were nearly 400 guild halls in Beiping City.

At the same time, the sizes of each guild hall vary greatly. The small guild hall has only a house with a Sanhe Courtyard for a few years. In addition to the large rooms, the large guild hall also has primary and secondary schools, theaters, clinics, cemeteries, etc., and all kinds of infrastructure are available. It can be said to be the size of a small county town in the place.

Among them, the most famous of these guild halls is the Shaoxing guild hall. Mr. Lu Xun lived there for seven years. In order to avoid the hustle and bustle, he even moved to a haunted house and named it "Bushu Bookstore", and then he was born peacefully.

Cheng Nuo also thought about whether to stay in the club, but he thought that there might be more and more students in the family in the future. The club has too many people and talkative people. Maybe one day it will get angry, so it would be better to find a separate courtyard.

When I arrived near my destination, I found a alley and got in.

Unfortunately, renting a house and buying a house is not easy, whether in the past or present life. Cheng Nuo circled the alley for several times but couldn't see the right one.

I finally thought it was good, either the quotation for you by looking at the doctor is too high, or there are other tenants in the private courtyard, so it won’t work.

Just when he felt helpless and wanted to take a few sips of tea to take a break, someone came from behind and caught Cheng Nuo's attention.

I saw this man wearing a toad mirror, a jacket on the upper body, a long robe on the lower body, holding a bird cage in his left hand and not forgetting to hold a pot and pot gourd in his right hand. No matter how he looked, he looked like a disciple of the Eight Banners on TV.

The guy walked straight to Cheng Nuo, sat down side by side and spoke, "Master, I see you have been walking around the alleys a lot. Do you want to buy a house or rent a house?"

When he came up, he asked if he was not sure about his origin. Cheng Nuo was a little wary, but he was not good at engaging in a direct way. He evaded: "Oh oh oh, I'm from another place. I came here just to take a look and enjoy the scenery of the old Peking City."

"Yeah, that's great." The mysterious man smiled happily, put down the bird cage and the grasshopper gourd in his hand, took out a small bag of tea from his arms and handed it to the stall owner: "Brother, please soak it for me."

This scene made Cheng Nuo a little stunned, and he choked out with a mouthful of tea.

If you even play like this, how thick this person should be.

Cheng Nuo shook his head and asked himself that he could not do it.

The mysterious man was obviously a regular visitor to the tea stall. After hearing this, the stall owner just smiled helplessly, so he brought a pot of boiling water and soaked it for him.

"Thank you, brother, I wish you a better and better business and a better fortune."

"Don't, I'm satisfied if I keep the stall and don't lose money."

Cheng Nuo had almost rested here, so he didn't let the boss continue to refill the water, so he prepared to get up, thinking of seeing a few more alleys while he had time.

At this time, the mysterious man suddenly spoke and drank the tea in his hand.

"Sir, if you buy a house and rent a house, you can find me Wu Youde. If you can't find a place that you are satisfied with, I won't charge a penny until you meet a suitable one."

Cheng Nuo hesitated for a moment. Renting a house is indeed not possible. His experience in the morning made him pessimistic about the results of the afternoon house viewing. It seems that it is a good choice to have an agent now.

Seeing that Cheng Nuo paused for a moment, Wu Youde stood up and said, "Sir, if you don't believe me, I can go to the surrounding area to inquire. I, Old Wu, have never cheated anyone in this industry, and have always only done open-minded things."

House fiber is the old name of real estate agents.

The stall owner who was busy running around saw this scene, stopped and stood up, wiped his face with a towel, and teased: "That gentleman, I can prove that Wu Youde usually has a little pretense, a little stingy, and a little thick-skinned. He has nothing else. It's true that the house is good."

Wu Youde was a little embarrassed, but he was not at all panicked. He took off the toad mirror and said with a stern saying: "Just relying on your fair words from Brother Sun, I will not bring tea tomorrow and drink what you have at your stall."

"Bah, you'll just erase the accounts of last month first."

From the laughter and scolding of the two, Cheng Nuo heard that Wu Youde had some skills and his shortcomings did not have any major impact. He could have invited him to find a house.

In the end, if you really can't find a suitable house, you can't pay, and in theory you can't lose anything.

After thinking about it, Cheng Nuo bowed and said, "Then Mr. Wu will find a house for me to rent. I will definitely not lose money to you."

As long as you find a suitable house, commissions and other things seem to be small in Cheng Nuo. After all, you have to live in for a few years in the future, the more worry-free the better.

"I'll wait for you to say this." Wu Youde is also a wonderful person. He puts the bird cage and the grasshopper cage next to the stall owner's stove, winking and saying, "Please take care of me, and I'll erase the debts when I come back."

"What about this time?"

"Hehe, remember first."

At this time, a gust of wind came, blowing off the cloth covering the bird cage. Cheng Nuo looked closely and said, "Okay."

Let alone birds, there is not a single bird's feather.

The whole thing is used by Wu Youde to support the scene. As for the grasshopper gourd, how about it, do you still need to guess?

"Wu Youde, you are really unethical."
