Beauty Comprehensive 1999

Chapter 16 Melinda

Take out the key to unlock it, and push open the glass door of the coffee shop with typical federal decoration style, the doorbell rings crisply, but no hostess will come out to say hello.

Xie Zihao walked to the bar, put down the big and small bags first, raised his wrist to look at his watch, and found that it was past twelve o'clock, and he was delayed a little by those two punks.

So he hurried to the back door of the store and sent everything back upstairs.

In fact, people like them who live upstairs usually go to the shop below to go upstairs, because it is more convenient, but these days Xie Zihao goes out at night to do things that cannot see the light, and the store also has to lock the door at night, So they all went around to the back of the apartment and took the stairs there to go straight up to the third floor, so as not to disturb the tenants on the second floor by taking the inner stairs.

Every house behind this row of apartments has an external staircase to go up, which is also the safe passage of the apartment.

Xie Zihao worked hard for half an hour, took out the frozen dumplings from the refrigerator, served them with a plate of cold cucumbers, ate some fried dumplings for lunch, and was sitting in front of the window on the third floor with a cup of tea to digest, looking down When people were coming and going, I suddenly saw a medium-sized van and a Beetle parked in front of my downstairs door.

He immediately knew that the person he was waiting for was coming.

Go downstairs and greet him from the storefront on the first floor.

He saw a woman in a black dress, no taller than 160, get off the Beetle and smiled at Xie Zihao.

"Hello, you must be Mr. Lance Sherman? Melinda Wilson, your new tenant!"

The beauty extended her hand to him generously and introduced herself.

Xie Zihao's heart jumped, because this Melinda Wilson really grew up in his aesthetic point.

It seems that Melinda, who is around [-], is a beauty with a height of [-]. She may not be particularly outstanding in Lao Mi's side, but she is in line with Xie Zihao's standards. She has a melon-shaped face, big watery eyes, and a deer-like deer-like expression. , although it is not a small cherry mouth, but it is not the kind of big-mouthed beauties that are common in Europe and the United States. In addition, Yingying has a bulging figure that can be regarded as protruding and backwards. It is definitely the best among pure lust and sweetheart girls.

Even the men passing by on the street, ranging from middle-aged in their 40s to [-]s, to girls in their [-]s and [-]s, stared at Melinda like they wanted to eat people.

Who said that the aesthetics of the East and the West are different?Isn't it quite the same?
Fortunately, after Xie Zihao's practice, his concentration was extraordinary, he just came back to his senses after a moment of stunned, and lightly shook the opponent's slender hand, which was cooler than ordinary people, and it felt very good.

The beauty on the opposite side said habitually:

"Sorry, my hands are cold!"

"It's okay, it's so hot now."

As Xie Zihao said it, he was pleasantly surprised.

Because this looks very similar to Jennifer Ralph Hewitt, an American beauty star he liked in his previous life, and he looks younger, more beautiful and slightly taller.

Then he opened his mouth and asked tentatively:

"Mrs. Wilson, isn't Mr. Wilson here?"

Melinda smiled and said:
"If you're asking about my father, I'm sorry he's still in Oakland. Also, please call me Miss Wilson!"

Xie Zihao felt happy for a while, isn't the big beauty married yet?this is amazing!

"So Miss Wilson is single?"

Melinda Wilson looked at Xie Zihao with interest, looked at the slightly immature fair and handsome face, and then said with a smile:

"Mr. Sherman seems to be still a student, right? If you want to ask me out, it's better to wait a few years!"

Xie Zihao frowned. He remembered that the real estate agent didn't tell him the age of the new tenant. Could it be that this person is very old?Doesn't look like it?
"I'm old enough to drink, and I've graduated from college, please don't treat me as an underage child, OK?"

Melinda was surprised and said:

"Oh, it turns out that Mr. Sherman, you are already 21 years old. I thought you were just eighteen or nineteen, or even under your age! Forgive me, after all, your Asian age is easily misunderstood!"

"It's ok!"

"My fault, and to express my apologies, may I buy you a cup of coffee?"

"Where are you going? There is a coffee shop opposite."

Unexpectedly, the beauty shook her head and smiled:
"I brought a full set of machines. Can we boil water in the store now? Anyway, we have to wait for the lawyers to sign on the scene. How about letting me make a cup of coffee for you? Of course, I need to let the gentlemen on the truck move the things first. come down."

Xie Zihao didn't mean to refuse at all, he nodded quickly and said:
"my pleasure!"

So the two came to the side of the shop, and Xie Zihao watched as Melinda directed the movers to move all the belongings into the shop.

On the federal side, renting a house is a very serious matter. Generally, a lawyer is required to take a look at it and strictly follow the contract. Tenants are not allowed to sublet the house without permission. Once such behavior is discovered, all What will be faced will be prosecution and high fines, and in serious cases, jail time.

Later, lawyers and real estate agents from both sides will come to accompany the homeowner and tenant to sign the contract.

These contracts and so on, Xie Zihao, are handed over to his parents' acquaintance, that is, John Zhou who works in the law firm on this street. Although the other party will not take special care of him, they will not intentionally cheat him. After all, they are all neighbors , the reputation of more than ten years cannot be destroyed in the hands.

They are all standard charges, who doesn’t use them?
So Xie Zihao did not rashly change some of the original decisions.

And John Zhou's younger sister also happens to be a real estate agent. After the former tenant withdrew the lease, Xie Zihao simply entrusted the other party to list it for rent. Unexpectedly, there was a new tenant within half a month, and the other party didn't come over in person, just hired a lawyer I paid a deposit after looking at it on my behalf.

It seems that this Melinda is very anxious to move in, Xie Zihao thought thoughtfully.

In fact, the owner of the coffee shop had been renting a house with the Xie family for five or six years, and they got on well with each other. After the Xie family had an accident, they also took care of Xie Zihao.

It's just that the business has been really sluggish this year. In the early years, on this street surrounded by Chinese restaurants, the business of the cafes was pretty good, and the annual income was higher than that of ordinary wage earners after deducting the rent.

But with the development of the times and the rise of the second and third generations of young immigrants, this street is dominated by Chinese people, and the number of Western-style fast food and cafes has gradually increased. Coupled with the approach of the millennium, young people’s The pace of life has also become relatively fast, so convenient fast food and light meals in American cafes have become the best choices for office workers to solve breakfast and lunch.

This seems to be a good thing. The previous tenant also chose to expand the storefront and rent the first floor of Xie's house after seeing the prospect. However, this trend just further squeezed the business of the old-fashioned Italian cafe downstairs of Xie's house. In the past two years, only regular customers will come here to eat regularly, so the shop on the first floor with a usable area of ​​nearly [-] square meters is a bit empty for the current cafe business.

So the original owner couldn't afford the rent here, and planned to change the cafe to a smaller store in another block. This is also an idea that the cafe owner has been considering for a while.It was because the business could still be maintained before, but now the situation is different. From the first two months, I found that after calculating the rent and various expenses, he even had to pay back tens of pounds every month, although it was not much. , but this will not work.

So last month, he mentioned to Xie Yuanshen the matter of retiring the rent, and after Xie Zihao traveled over, considering that Yuanshen got along with this tenant quite happily, he agreed to let the other party move out. What did you say, I happily returned the deposit.

Anyway, the location of his store is good and there is no need to worry about renting.

In Xie Zihao's opinion, his three-story building is definitely a good asset now.

Although the federal economy seems to be still on the rise last year and this year, due to the economic crisis in the Far East, many wealthy people in the East have suffered a lot. As a result, more and more rich Asians choose to immigrate to the Federation, and black families who smuggle over It has also increased significantly in a short period of time.

As the Golden State with the largest number of Asian immigrants, it is the largest area in the federal states affected by this. Although Pasadena, a city populated by Chinese people, is not full of people, it has a large number of low-income people. It is a fact that some low-cost businesses such as restaurants, convenience stores, and small workshops have begun to involve.

On the contrary, the real estate industry is bullish.

However, Xie Zihao knew that if he expected correctly, a large number of foreign immigrants would choose to enter the White Eagle Federation, the world's largest economic power, in the next decade or so. Definitely the first choice for Chinese and Asian immigrants.
