Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

Hao Liang arrived at the gate of the yard. He took out the key to the yard's gate and asked the man as he opened the door.

"How many rooms do you want to rent? There are two hundred, three hundred, and three hundred and fifty rooms here."

"Can we all go inside and have a look at the room first?" the man's wife said, standing behind Hao Liang.

"Okay, this one is for two hundred. The ones inside are all for three hundred and three hundred and fifty." Hao Liang led them into the courtyard and pointed to the room where Liu Hu lived.

The man walked to the window of the bungalow in the courtyard and took a look inside. He seemed not satisfied with the two-hundred-room house and said to Hao Liang.

"Can we go inside the house and look at other rooms. Preferably upstairs."

After he finished speaking, the man looked at his wife, as if asking for advice.

Hao Liang did not refuse, he opened the door directly and took the couple inside. After turning on the light downstairs, he took them up to the second floor.

Hao Liang opened the best master bedroom here and said to the couple, "This one costs RMB 350. It has a toilet and a balcony. The others are RMB 300. I pay the rent here every six months."

The woman looked around the room, then in the bathroom, and then returned to the room and touched the bed. Hao Liang said quickly.

"This bed room was just purchased, and no one has said anything about it yet. If I hadn't left it empty, I wouldn't have wanted to rent it out."

The woman took her husband to the balcony, the two of them discussed it, then walked in and said to Hao Liang.

"Landlord, we are here to work. We haven't found a job yet. Can you see if we can pay the rent month by month?"

"It's definitely not enough to pay the rent every month. I have other things to do. I come here to collect the rent every month, and I don't have much time."

"Landlord, we don't have much money when we come out. Can we find a job and pay you the salary, and then pay you the rest of the rent?"

When Hao Liang was about to refuse, Meng Mengdi pulled Hao Liang's clothes and said.

"Brother-in-law, it's not easy for you to look after them. Why don't you rent it to them? If you don't have time, just call me and I'll collect the rent for you after class at noon. I'm the best at this."

As soon as Meng Mengdi finished speaking, the girl quickly took out the money and handed it to Hao Liang, quickly thanking him.

"Landlord, don't worry, we will pay the remaining rent immediately after we find a job and have money."

Hao Liang took the three hundred and fifty yuan handed over, glanced at Meng Mengdi who looked excited, and said to them,

"Each of you pay another ten yuan for electricity and five yuan for water. A total of thirty. Remember to pay your wages and make up for the rent."

The girl took out another thirty yuan and handed it to Hao Liang. Hao Liang took one of the keys from the lock, took the money and left.

Arriving at the village in the city, Meng Mengdi said to Hao Liang, "Brother-in-law, if you rent out all the rooms here, will you be able to collect a lot of money every month?"

"There are a total of eighteen rooms, with an average of three hundred. You can do the math yourself." Hao Liang said as he walked.

"Fifty-four hundred yuan, right? This is higher than the combined salary of my parents. If there were more houses like this, I wouldn't have to do the work of collecting rent every month." Meng Mengdi said with some envy.

"Well, when your brother-in-law and I have more houses in the future, you will come and collect the rent for me." Hao Liang patted Meng Mengdi on the head and said.

"Really, how much do you share with me the money you collect?"

"You still want to share the money, then how much do you want to share?"

"Let me think about it. Give me at least one thousand, no less. Can you do that, brother-in-law?" Meng Mengdi came up and took Hao Liang's hand and shook it.

"Okay, why not? Then after you graduate, you can collect rent from me, and I will give you an internship salary of one thousand per month." Hao Liang also said jokingly.

"Then you have to take care of food, housing, and buying things for me. Otherwise, one thousand yuan won't be enough for me."

"What you think is beautiful. By the way, when you started just now, why were you laughing?"

When Hao Liang asked, Meng Mengdi seemed to think of something funny and laughed again, "Brother-in-law, that person just called you handsome guy."

"What's wrong with calling me handsome guy? What's so funny about that?" Hao Liang asked even more confused.

"Nothing, haha!" Meng Meng laughed again.

Hao Liang reacted to Meng Wendi's smile. He looked at Meng Mengdi with a wicked smile and said, "You mean, I'm not a handsome guy anymore."

Meng Mengdi smiled even more happily now. Hao Liang hit her fleshy part twice, and Meng Mengdi naturally wanted to hit her back.

Just like that, the two of them went back to the KFC store and ordered a Family Bucket.

Meng Mengdi took out the money Hao Liang had just given her and paid for the meal. The extra few dollars naturally fell into her pocket.

After eating two chicken wings, Meng Mengdi said to Hao Liang impatiently.

"Brother-in-law, my new roommate told me that there are new movies in the cinema and they are very good. You can take me to see them. I can also talk about movies with them when I get back."

"Why is it your roommate who said it? Okay, let's go and watch a movie after dinner and then go back."

"That's what my roommate said. Anyway, it looks good. And it's funny." Meng Mengdi picked up another piece of chicken wing and ate it.

After eating KFC, Hao Liang and Meng Mengdi walked to the cinema. Mainly because it was still early, it was just right to walk there.

When they arrived at the entrance of the cinema, Ding Meili and three other financial officers were also at the entrance of the cinema. Hao Liang and Meng Mengdi were also seen by Ding Meili and others. Hao Liang could only go over and say hello to them.

Seeing Meng Mengdi holding Hao Liang's arm, Ding Meili frowned and asked.

"Hao Liang, who is this? Shanshan is here."

"This is my sister-in-law. Shanshan has gone back to her own home. By the way, why are you here?"

"Your sister-in-law?" Ding Meili became even more confused.

But Hao Liang was the boss, and it was inappropriate to ask just now. Ding Meili didn't ask any more questions and replied.

"We have a day off tomorrow and there's nothing else to do, so we'll just come over and watch a movie."

"What are you looking at? I invite you to look at it. Go in."

What Hao Liang didn't expect was that Ding Meili and Meng Mengdi chose the same movie, "The Great Sage of Love".

Hao Liang could only buy six consecutive movie tickets. He also bought some snacks and popcorn and went directly into the screening room.

Because Ding Meili and the others were there, Hao Liang watched the most serious movie since his rebirth. While watching the movie, he didn't even speak to Meng Mengdi, let alone move anything.

After nearly two hours, Hao Liang ate the last popcorn, and this tearful comedy movie came to an end.

When the lights in the cinema were turned on, Hao Liang said to Ding Meili. "Sister Meili, we are going back first. Please pay attention to safety on the way back."

After finishing speaking, he said to Meng Mengdi, "Mengmeng, let's go. It's getting late."

After Meng Mengdi and Hao Liang left, one of the accountants asked Ding Meili, "Boss, aren't the boss and Shanshan boyfriend and girlfriend? Why is there another sister-in-law?"

"How do I know? When Shanshan comes here in the future, don't talk nonsense in front of her. Hao Liang is also our boss after all. Do you understand?"

"I know, the boss's sister-in-law is really pretty. She's no worse than Shanshan."

"Stop talking, let's go have a late night snack and go back to bed. You will go on duty in the factory tomorrow. Don't oversleep."

As they spoke, they hailed a taxi at the entrance of the cinema and went back to the house they rented.

After Hao Liang and Meng Mengdi came out, there was no fight. The two of them talked and slowly walked towards Fatty Internet Cafe, which was only an hour away.

Returning to the room on the third floor of the Internet cafe, Hao Liang said to Meng Mengdi, "Mengmeng, do you want to take a shower?"

"Don't wash it. When I got to your place in the afternoon, it was already washed. I'm not sweating anymore, so I won't wash it. Brother-in-law, please go take a shower. I'll go to bed first."

When Hao Liang came out of the shower, Meng Mengdi was already wrapped in a quilt and lying on the bed. As before, the two of them had a brief exchange and then fell asleep holding each other.

But in the middle of the night, Hao Liang was woken up by Meng Mengdi, "Brother-in-law, you hear that there seems to be a fight next door. It seems that the woman next door is still cursing."

After Hao Liang was pushed awake by Meng Mengdi, he also knew that it was a pair of college students next door who were doing night exercises, but the sound was a little louder.

He hugged Meng Mengdi and said, "Stop listening, they are doing that."

"Really, let me listen again." He straightened up and put his ear to the wall.
