Yanzi Valley of Jingcheng

Chapter 174

Guan Sha and Shen Li were at a loss about the imminent water and electricity cut-off in the house they lived in. The first thing they thought of was to call the long-term rental apartment.

"Hello, welcome to Dandan Apartment, the landline is busy now, and there are 196 customers waiting online in front of you..."

"Sick! There are 196 more people!" Guan Sha couldn't help but want to curse.

"Why don't you just go to their office and ask." Ren Tianxing suggested.

"That's right, I remember that they have a booth right at the entrance of the sales office in Yanzi Valley. Before, the villagers here rented houses and handed over their houses there. I often deliver food there, and there are quite a lot of people working there." Shen Li said.

"Then what are you waiting for? Go now!" Guan Sha had already put on her coat at this time.

The sales office of Yanzigu Community is located in the 4th building closest to the main entrance. The main entrance is on a high slope with about [-] to [-] steps. It is a dilapidated farmer's building and a row of dirty vegetable markets.

When Guan Sha and his team came to the sales office, they did not see any booths related to long-term rental apartments.

"Hi, where's the former Dandan apartment here?" Shen Li asked the lady in the sales office.

"I don't know." The other party replied.

"Why is it not so clear, haven't they been setting up a stall here for rent before?"

Hearing Shen Li's words, the other party apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm new here, just wait a moment..." The sales lady said and called a colleague who looked a little older.

"Dandan apartment? They didn't come here a few weeks ago." The colleague said.

"Then do you know their original office location?" Guan Sha asked eagerly.

"I don't know." The other party shook his head.

The office address should be the registered address, and the company's registered address can be checked online. Guan Sha can only rely on luck now.

The registered address of Dandan Apartment is in an old office building on the edge of the high-tech park. It is still rented on the first floor, and the entrance of the company is blocked.

"It must be here..." Ren Tianxing confirmed as he watched the disgruntled crowd.

Although Ren Tianxing was very busy at work and had to work overtime on weekends, he couldn't bear the two women, Shen Li and Guan Sha, to deal with this kind of thing, so he followed along.

Guan Sha stepped forward and patted the young woman who was queuing, "Hello, I'm here to ask about renting a house. My landlord said he would cut off my water and electricity. I wonder if you are in the same situation?"

The young woman got excited when she heard Guan Sha's words, "We're pretty much the same! Although I'm not at the point where water and electricity are cut off, I heard from their internal staff that the company might run away. I paid a year’s rent, [-] to [-] yuan, and now I’ve lived in it for less than four months, and the landlord asked me to move out, saying that they didn’t receive the money, and they haven’t received the money since two or three months.”

A grey-haired old man next to him said, "Cheat people! Little girl! Let me tell you that this company most likely wants to cheat people! The business outlets have all gone. In the end, I found this place after a long circle, but look, something must have happened, and there are so many people here! I can’t get in at all!”

What the old man said was the truth. There were at least 300 people crowded in front of the two glass doors, and most of them held the "Rental Contract" and "House Rental Authorization Letter" in their hands.

While waiting, Guan Sha dialed the number of Dandan Apartment.

"The landline is busy now, there are 171 customers waiting online in front of you, please press 1 to continue waiting..."

"There are still 171." Guan Sha said to Shen Li and Ren Tianxing.

Ren Tianxing was ashamed, "It's been half an hour... I guess your phone is out of battery and no one answered it."

As soon as he said this, he saw Shen Li picked up her mobile phone and began to take pictures of the Dandan apartment scene. Not only did Shen Li take pictures, she also held up her mobile phone and began to interview people at the scene.

Those people waited impatiently, and they had no place to vent their grievances. When a bad thing happened to them and they didn't know whether it could be properly resolved, their tendency was to make a big deal out of it, wishing that the whole world would I know, that's why these people never refuse Shen Li's interviews.

"What are you three months? I've only lived for three weeks." A young man with a messenger bag said.

"I came here to defend my rights less than five days after I lived there, and I paid all the rent for a year."

"I've been here before, I rented the subway entrance, and it only cost 3200 yuan a month." A young woman with a ponytail was speaking, "But I saw that some houses around the same size cost more than 5000 yuan, so I thought it was so cheap. Reasonable, so I asked Dandan to show me the contract they signed with the landlord, but they didn't give it to me. I said at least let me meet with the landlord. He was willing to arrange for me to meet with the landlord, but at the beginning he always used the landlord as an excuse that he couldn't make an appointment because of something."

Another tenant said, "I said I want to terminate the contract. They said yes, but I have to wait. I waited for a week. Finally, they said that I would terminate the contract and asked me to pay four months' rent."

"I asked them to solve the problem and they kept making me wait."

……

Most of the people who stated these words in front of Shen Li's camera were young people, who seemed to have just graduated from work, and their tone was calm, but the fatigue and anxiety on everyone's faces could not be concealed.

"Sister, if you have a media channel, please help us to respond. We paid [-] to [-], how long do I have to save the [-] to [-]... I have been here four times this week, if there are only two to three thousand, I don't know. It will be like this, everyone is busy at work..."

The one who spoke was a thin girl with short hair. She looked at Shen Li's camera with helpless eyes.

The rent has already been paid, and there is still one year to pay, but the landlord will be kicked out before the time is up. It must be that the rights have been violated.

Shen Li also doesn't know why she wants to record everything here, maybe it's just a sudden inspiration, maybe she wants to record something instinctively, or maybe she thinks this is very rare material, and this kind of video recording is a kind of evidence , to prove that the victim did exist, this kind of evidence may be helpful to myself and Guan Sha in the future.

Guan Sha didn't think about leaving when she came here. She and Shen Li waited until 8 o'clock in the evening before finally squeezed through the glass door.

Guan Sha, the man who has been trying her best to appease everyone, has met before. The man was the housekeeper sent by Dandan Apartment when her water heater broke down.

At that time, Shen Li was trying to repair the water heater in the bathroom, and the doorbell of 3428 rang.

Guan Sha hurried over to open the door. There were two men standing outside the door. One of them was about 30 years old, smiling and wearing a shirt and work clothes. The man introduced himself as the housekeeper of the long-term rental apartment.

"Hello, Miss Guan, I am the housekeeper in charge of your room. My surname is Shang." As he spoke, he respectfully handed Guan Sha a business card.

Guan Sha looked down and saw the name on the business card: Shang Nuo.

However, the card on Shang Nuo's chest standing in front of Guan Sha is no longer a butler, but a business supervisor.

"Don't worry, the company is already negotiating with the financing party, and there will be a result next Tuesday at the latest. If the money is received, everyone's problems will be resolved. We guarantee that we will pay the landlord as soon as we get the money."

"You are a company! Can you lose so much money?!" At this moment, a fat old lady asked Shang Nuo loudly.
