“…”

No...what is this?

Although he was mentally prepared to a certain extent, after getting off the public carriage and walking home, Leon still couldn't help but feel a toothache when he looked at the promotional posters posted outside the newsstands on the roadside.

Since the "Palace Incident", Princess Veronica has been busy stabilizing the situation, trying hard to suppress the old nobles, and taking over the power from the old king as smoothly as possible. She is so busy every day that her feet hit the back of her head, and she has no time to harass herself. .

But although her man didn't come, he kept "showing love" while working. Whenever he got the opportunity, he would talk about it, then hire someone to post news, and start to show off his love like crazy.

It was obvious that he had not seen her in person for more than a week, but yet he seemed to be in a passionate love affair, making most of the people in the capital think that he was about to marry her...

Just outrageous.

After clicking his tongue in extreme silence, Leon turned the corner and walked towards Xingfu Apartment. The strong old man, whom he had not seen for a long time, also came out of the small garden next to the building in time, carrying a pair of gardening shears of astonishing length.

"Good evening."

After politely saying hello to the strong old man, Leon walked into the lobby on the first floor of the apartment despite the strong old man's eager gaze.

After these two months of repeated confrontations, and the experience of being **** with wool and hung up all night if he attacked Leon, the strong old man's brain was not very good, and he finally managed to remember the new rules of Happy Apartment -

Bad guys can't enter, but a certain "evil devil" is the only exception and can come and go normally.

Although he was worried about the safety of the residents, he would still drag his lame leg and happen to pass behind Leon from time to time, or he would squat outside the window of Leon's bedroom in the middle of the night with a pair of sharply polished scissors, but he did not directly It's been done.

"Um?"

After seeing Leon entering the building through the large window of the administrator's room, the administrator's mother, who was knitting, raised her head and asked with some surprise:

"Why is it so early today? Don't you usually come back at night?"

"Haha, today is a special situation...this is a gift for you."

After opening the small window of the administrator's room and handing over the hardcover woolen yarn he bought on the way, Leon explained with a smile:

“I’ve been doing pretty well at work recently, and I’ll be on a business trip in a few days, which may last for a while, so the bureau gave me a few days off, letting me rest early and spend two extra days with my family. Oh my God, where are Anna and the others?"

"They'll be back soon."

The administrator aunt took the yarn in surprise and said:

"It's time for school to end now. Anna should have picked up the two children and is on her way back... Ouch, this yarn is not cheap! I can't take it away!"

"Actually, it's not that expensive. It's just a small gift. You'd better accept it."

After pushing back the wool handed over by the administrator, Leon thanked him seriously:

"I am quite busy at work and am away from home all day long. Anna can only take care of William and Melanie by herself. You and Uncle John have helped her a lot. I will keep these good things in my heart.

Compared to how you and Uncle John take care of our family, this is just a small gift. I didn’t even buy it on purpose. I just happened to see it on the way back and thought you might like it, so I bought it... Oh, and Uncle John's. "

As Leon spoke, he reached out and touched the mirror cufflinks. He took out two large whetstones and a bag of selected flower seeds from the mirror world. After pushing the things back together with the wool bag, he Face insisted sincerely:

"Aunt Mary, just accept it. The salary from the Cleanup Bureau is pretty good. These things are really nothing to me."

"Well... that's okay." Seeing Leon's insistence, the administrator did not continue to refuse. Instead, she accepted the woolen bag first and planned to give two pairs of gloves and hats to the two children of the Lane family, and then return the favor. return.

After accepting the gift, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and then asked with some worry:

"By the way, people from the municipal government have been here in the past two days and said that they plan to renovate the Happy Apartment and then expand the scope. Do you know about this?"

Renovating a happy apartment?

After hearing the administrator's aunt's inquiry, Leon couldn't help but be slightly startled.

Indeed... although it is carefully taken care of by the caretaker aunt and the strong old man, the predecessor of Xingfu Apartment was a workhouse more than 90 years ago after all, so it is already a century-old building.

According to the Kingdom's "Building Renovation Law", all mid- and high-rise buildings facing the streets of the Royal Capital must be overhauled every ten years, and repainted and large-scale renovations must be carried out every fifty years. Now it seems that the time has come for Happy Apartment. Renovation period.

However, there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. It is an unbreakable truth wherever it is placed.

Although the laws of the kingdom are very strict, whether it is overhaul or renovation, only someone with money can do it.

In view of the financial situation of the kingdom, which has been quite stretched in recent years, and even military pensions can be deducted, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs is naturally unwilling to do such a thankless task. Only buildings in wealthy areas and aristocratic areas can be used. Possibility of receiving competent care.

After all, it's the construction company's responsibility to injure people, and the municipal department's failure means poor maintenance. Considering that the funds are indeed limited, it will be overwhelming to eat something and fall down.

But if the laws are strictly enforced and maintenance and renovations are carried out on an entire street basis frequently, the person in charge will probably be stuck in the city for the rest of his life, let alone a promotion. In the toilet of Zhengju, he continued to brush the toilet with his hands free.

So not to mention painting and renovation, even the maintenance that only happens once every ten years, the people in the city council have not done much. They basically just come and wander around, fill in two random maintenance projects and submit them, and get some maintenance. The funds are enough to complete the work.

Although the municipal department does not act, the residents do not dare to let it go. After all, safety is their own business. Therefore, in recent years, the renovation of Xingfu Apartment has always been done by the administrator aunt, which made her and Zhuang The old man has been working for almost a hundred years and has not saved any savings.

But even so, with their meager salary, even with the money raised by the residents, they can only carry out some basic maintenance. Therefore, many places in Xingfu Apartment are very dilapidated, and they are basically just barely maintaining it. Several sections of the corridor's handrails were missing.

If the strong old man hadn't really developed amazing repair skills after doing maintenance work for a hundred years, it's doubtful whether this happy apartment building could continue to survive...

…

"This is a good thing!"

After recalling the situation in Xingfu Apartment, Leon congratulated with surprise:

"The apartment is really due for some repairs. If the city council is willing to undertake the renovation work, it will make things a lot easier for you and Uncle John."

"This is indeed..."

The administrator's aunt nodded when she heard this, but couldn't help but whispered worriedly:

"But John and I are actually part of this apartment. If Happy Apartment is renovated and expanded...can we still exist?"
