An employee suddenly realized: "No wonder I just saw a young man who looked like He Sheng peeking into the store for a few times, and then entered the shop of Old Witch Hu next door.
I thought I was dazzled by the wrong person, but it turns out that the evil spirit He Sheng is back!"
Other shop assistants were worried: "He Sheng is back. If we don't comply with him and raise the rent, I'm afraid this store won't be able to continue to operate."
If he hadn't bought the three small bungalows diagonally across the road, Lin Mai might have panicked.
But now she has her own storefront, and the location is better than the one she rented.
Even if this facade is taken back, it won't have any impact on her. It's just that if she doesn't take it back, she will have multiple facades and earn a little more, so she is very calm.
I thought to myself that I had already bought a small western-style building with a facade.
If He Sheng really wants to force her to stop opening this snack bar, then she can just close it, as long as he pays liquidated damages according to the contract.
Fang Zhuoran also breathed a sigh of relief.
What he was worried about was that He Sheng would harm Lin Mai personally, and he couldn't protect her 24 hours a day.
If it were just a rent increase, it would be a trivial matter.
Nothing is more important than the safety of the little girl.
Zhou Caiyun had already prepared lunch for Lin and Mai.
At this time, he brought the food upstairs and said to Lin Mai: "You'd better buy the house opposite as soon as possible. It's too annoying to rent someone else's front. If the rent is raised, the rent will be raised."
Lin Mai winked at her and whispered: "I've already bought it."
Zhou Caiyun asked in surprise: "When did you buy it?"
Lin Lin shushed: "Don't be so loud, just a few days ago."
Then he warned: "Don't tell others about this."
Zhou Caiyun asked further: "Can't Mingcheng say it too?"
Lin Mai thought that Li Mingcheng was too easy to deceive: "Don't tell him yet."
If you buy such a big house and let the neighbors know about it early, I don’t know how many people will be jealous.
Lin Mai just wanted to live quietly and didn't want to bring hatred to himself.
Although on the day of moving, the neighbors will know that she bought a big house worth tens of thousands of dollars.
But at that time, she was no longer their neighbor, and those people only had envy towards her, not much jealousy or hatred.
Because most people are only jealous of those around them who are better off than themselves.
This is the reason why she has always kept a low profile and does not want outsiders to know that she bought a small western-style house too early.
When the three of them had dinner together, Fang Zhuoran asked Lin Mai to renovate the house opposite as soon as possible and move there.
Not only is the store large and convenient for doing business, but the living area on the second floor is large and comfortable.
Lin Mai shook his head and said, "No one is planning to live on the second floor."
Fang Zhuoran was stunned for a moment: "If we can no longer rent here, don't we have to rent a house to live in?"
"That's not necessary." Lin Mai told him that he wanted to add a floor with his neighbor.
Fang Zhuoran asked: "Is it safe to add layers?"
"It's safe." Lin Mai took a chopstick and put her favorite amaranth into her mouth, "I've asked an experienced mason to take a look."
Fang Zhuoran said: "The master mason is not a professional. I will wait until I contact a professional to take a look."
Lin Mai helplessly spread his hands.
Doudou was not interested in their conversation and secretly ate the lean meat from the meat slices, while the fat meat was fed to Ah Huang.
Since the conditions at home have gotten better and better, her mouth has become more and more cunning. She won't eat any fat and always gives it to Ah Huang secretly.
Ah Huang fell in love with this little master more and more. As long as he was with her, his tail would wag like a propeller.
When he's with the rest of the family, he also wagged his tail, but not so wildly.
Before the three of them finished their lunch, a man shouted aggressively from downstairs: "Where's your landlady? Tell her to come down!"
Fang Zhuoran's face condensed: "Isn't He Sheng here?"
Lin Mai put down his chopsticks and said, "I'll go down and take a look."
Fang Zhuoran also put down his chopsticks and followed him downstairs.
Doudou was already full, patted her round belly, and left the small living room.
But I stood at the stairs with Ah Huang and didn't go down.
Lin Mai told her that no matter where there was a quarrel, she would stay away.
In order to prevent the two parties in the quarrel from fighting and affecting her.
She was in poor health and had to go to the hospital after being accidentally injured.
A carefree young man in his twenties slapped the table and said fiercely: "If I don't tell you clerks, you don't deserve to talk to me. Tell your boss lady to come out!"
Lin Mai walked downstairs calmly: "I am the boss's wife, who are you and what do you want?"
The young man turned his head and looked at Lin Mai.
He didn't expect the landlady to be so young. Although she wasn't very white, she was very beautiful and quite attractive.
"I am He Sheng, the son of Father He, and I am here to take back the reputation of my family!"
He Sheng looked determined to win.
So what if the boss lady is a beauty, she is not his girlfriend, let alone his wife!
I heard from Grandma Yangyang next door that their shop can earn forty or fifty a day, and more than a thousand a month.
The annual salary of a state-owned factory director is only this much.
If he took back his facade and could earn more than a thousand a month, what kind of beauty would he want? Is it necessary to covet the boss lady in front of him?
Lin Mai was a little surprised. He Sheng was not here to increase the rent, but to collect the house.
Fang Zhuoran's face darkened: "This facade is signed under a contract, and you can't take it back if you want!"
He Sheng said indifferently: "So what if I sign the contract? I can just refund the money to you."
Lin Mai reminded him: "It's not just a matter of refunding money, but also compensation for liquidated damages. Do you know how much liquidated damages are?"
He Sheng asked in a rough voice: "How much?"
Lin Mai stretched out a slap: "Five hundred yuan."
She was afraid that the landlord would suddenly break the contract, so she set the liquidated damages at 500 yuan.
With such a high liquidated damages, the landlord will not easily break the contract.
He Sheng probably didn't know that the liquidated damages would be so high. He was obviously startled, pointed at Lin Mai's nose and said, "I'll come back later." After that, he turned around and left.
Li Mingcheng breathed a sigh of relief and said thankfully: "Daddy He's son is quite reasonable. He left as soon as he heard that he would have to pay liquidated damages. Otherwise, our store might not be able to open."
Several shop assistants couldn't help laughing when they saw how naive he was: "He Sheng is being reasonable? Just kid me."
A chef responsible for mincing meat patted Li Mingcheng on the shoulder: "Everyone said it would come again, so you are blindly optimistic."
Li Mingcheng became anxious when he heard this: "What should we do?"
"Let's take a step and see. What else can we do?" Lin Mai said lightly and asked Fang Zhuoran to go upstairs and continue eating.
After lunch and sending him out, Lin Mai glanced specifically at the neighbor.
Seeing that Aunt Hu was gloating and sneering at her, she immediately said sarcastically: "All day long, she only works hard to plot against me. She even lost her pension money. If she doesn't accept the lesson, do she want to lose her house too!"
Just this sentence made Aunt Hu stop laughing.
She stared at Lin Mai and turned around to enter the store, cursing in a low voice: "I'm going to make it so that you can't even do business!"
When I left Linmai's store, it was still early, and there was still an hour before I went to work in the afternoon.
Fang Zhuoran borrowed a colleague's bicycle and rode back to his father's house.
My father's home is not far from the hospital where he works, only four or five stops away and can be reached by bicycle in a quarter of an hour.
Wang Wenfang came back from the cafe angrily. Although she was very angry, she still had the patience to cook several of Fang Weiguo's favorite dishes at noon.
During lunch, Fang Weiguo asked her about her meeting with Lin Mai.
Wang Wenfang was waiting for him to ask.
Sighing again and again, he told Lin Mai's shameless words with added embarrassment.
Then he said worriedly: "That woman is too realistic and worships money too much. I am worried that she will meet someone better in the future, so I will kick Zhuoran."
Zhuoran has already been kicked by a woman once, and I really don’t want him to be kicked again."
Fang Weiguo ate a piece of braised pork ribs and said, "I'll tell Zhuo Ran later and ask him to break up with the second-married girl."
