Twenty minutes later, Lin Yue came to Furong Street, which is not far from the Dongfanghuayuan community where Su Han lives, and it is also the block where the front house he selected last time was located.

Although this east-west street is not comparable to the bustling business district, it is surrounded by several communities such as Oriental Garden, Times Garden, Furun Lijing, Kangzhuang New Village, and Xintai Mansion. The daily flow of people is quite strong. There are supermarkets, dried fruit stores, drug stores, barber shops and other shops closely related to daily life on the street.

Lin Yue chose this street to open a pet clinic because he valued the surrounding living environment. According to the document given to him by Wang Heng’s friend, the density of households keeping pets in the neighborhood of Furong Street is 25% higher than the average level of the whole district. It's close to Su Han's home, and it's only about 10 minutes' walk away, so it's very convenient to commute to and from work.

The previous tenant of Mentoufang sold children’s clothing, because online shopping had too much impact on offline brick-and-mortar stores, and the profits were insufficient. After dealing with the backlog of goods, they closed the doors and did not renew the lease.

After the taxi pulled over, he immediately saw Su Han standing in a house along the street without a signboard, talking to a fat woman in her fifties.

After scanning the QR code to pay the fare, Lin Yue got out of the taxi and walked towards the front room.

The last time we met, I made an appointment with Su Han to come to see the house today. I didn't expect the girl to be more anxious than him. She called early in the morning to say that she had arrived at her destination, and sent a message to the landlord that Aunt Wang was on her way.

"Auntie, you see we live in the same neighborhood, we don't see each other when we look up, and your husband is Uncle Li's chess player. Can you give us a cheaper rent?"

"No, no, you can go out and inquire. The prices of the houses near the door are all at this price. If I lower the rent, won't it disrupt the market?"

"Auntie, it's not easy for us young people to save some money, so you should support the young people's entrepreneurship, count 30,000 for us every month, and wipe off the odds, okay?"

"Oh, girl, who is having a good time these days? It's not easy for you young people to save some money, and it's not easy for us to live in middle age. Buy a house, a car, a wife for your children, and take care of your grandchildren in the future. Who doesn't need money? ? There is another headache, going to the hospital for blood tests, filming and checking for viruses. After the process of checking for viruses, thousands of dollars are gone. You asked me to support young people to start businesses, who will support my life?"

What the landlord said was reasonable, but Su Han felt very uncomfortable.

She is not a sociable person, so why didn't Lin Yue let Lin Yue do such things as negotiating the price, instead she volunteered to help her. The biggest reason is that I chatted with people in the community yesterday and learned that the landlord of the front room lives in the unit building in front of her house, and if I turn a few corners, the two families will still be friends.

With this level of relationship, it is naturally easy to know the family situation of the landlord, buy a house, buy a car, marry a wife and take care of children? The landlord has only one son. They have been married for six years, and the couple have good jobs. They have bought three houses. The family even hired a nanny to take the children to and from school. They are definitely middle class in Jianghai City.

She didn't want Li to say it directly, after all, it's human to bargain in business, the key is that people in a community, why are you lying?

People, it is true that the richer the master, the more stingy, but those poor people who have studied are willing to stick to kindness.

"Su Han."

Lin Yue walked into the front room, took a look at the dusty room, and walked to the girl.

She smiled and said, "You're here..."

"En." After Lin Yue finished speaking, he looked at the landlord: "Aunt Wang, right? I'm Lin Yue. I called you before."

Wang Caiqin looked him up and down carefully for a while: "Are you her boyfriend?"

Lin Yue said, "Yes, I am his boyfriend."

Wang Caiqin smiled and said, "That's great."

Lin Yue smiled apologetically at Wang Caiqin, and took Su Han's hand to the sidewalk outside: "What's going on?"

Su Han didn't hide it from him, and told him his thoughts and negotiation process with a rather dissatisfied tone.

Lin Yue knew that she was very displeased with the landlord's lying behavior, not to mention that her requirements were not high. For a rent of 32,000 a month, it's not too much for the tenant to want to erase the odds, right? What's more, the two live in the same community, so the relationship is always closer than that of strangers.

Lin Yue patted her hand: "You wait here, I'll talk to her."

"I'm not willing to take care of people in the same community as her, and it would be useless for you." Su Han shook his head and sighed: "If she doesn't agree to lower the price, don't rush, at worst, change to a cheaper rent facade."

Lin Yue felt a little funny. She was still full of resentment when she mentioned the landlord just now, thinking that the other party was not honest enough, and now she was worried that she would be sullen because the landlord refused to give up the profits.

"Come on, eat a piece of candy and suppress your emotions." Lin Yue stuffed a bag of chocolate into her hand and walked into the room.

Su Han tore open the packaging bag, pinched two chocolate beans and put them in his mouth, feeling much better.

At the same time, Lin Yue came to the small courtyard behind the gatehouse. Wang Caiqin was sorting out the waste cardboard boxes and aluminum cans on the ground with his feet, trying to gather them into a pile.

There was a humming sound from the yard next door, and it sounded like a high-power range hood was working.

"Aunt Wang."

"How is the discussion between you young couple?"

Lin Yue opened [Bargaining LV2] and [Teacher Killer LV2], and said with a smile: "I still hope you can lower the rent a little bit, look at the grass in this small yard, it's so high, and the dust in the room is also accumulated Quite a few, this gatehouse...has been vacant for at least a month."

Wang Caiqin was silent.

"Of course, the house is yours. It doesn't matter whether you rent it or not, but if you rent it out early, you will get paid one day earlier? With the current economic situation where physical stores are struggling, it will be vacant for half a year, so how much money will be lost? If I were the landlord , I will definitely consider charging less rent, and form a virtuous circle in the network of myself, tenants, and the market, so as not to cause the economy to collapse later, and the house cannot be rented even if I want to rent it.”

Wang Caiqin remembered what happened to the tenant who sold children's clothes before: "It makes sense."

"Well, I'll wipe off the change for you, and the rent is 30,000 yuan a month, how about it?"

30,000 a month, 360,000 a year, 24,000 yuan less than no profit, but as Lin Yue said, an extra month of vacancy period is a greater loss than 24,000 yuan less.

She calculated this account very well.

Lin Yue smiled, noncommittal about the landlord's regress.

"When I came here, I paid attention to the types of shops next to it. The surrounding restaurants are the most popular. I really don't understand why the last tenant came here to sell children's clothes. On the left is a restaurant, on the right is fast food, and there are two on the sidewalk in front. Trash can, this will greatly reduce the impression of passersby, okay? Let me tell you, it is better for people in the catering business to rent this facade house, but opening a restaurant...is a waste of the house."
