Gunfire, Punk & Necromancers

Chapter 166 Chapter 164 The Big House

"Gentlemen, welcome. Are you here to visit a friend or to see a house?"

"I didn't expect Wenxin Building to be like a hotel. When you enter the gate, there is the front desk, and there are these waiters wearing white gold." Ge Gongdao looked around, then patted Zhuang Xuteng, and said to the concierge: "You guessed wrong , not at all. This kid lives here, but it’s his first time here. That’s right, can you remember all the residents?”

Wenxin Building is a 52-story giant residential building, which itself is one of the landmark buildings in Liming District.It is generally divided into four parts, with thirteen floors as a group, narrowing from bottom to top.The 1313 and 1314 where Zhuang Xuteng lives are equivalent to the top floor of the first echelon, with a platform above his head, so he won’t be disturbed by footsteps—at least that’s what the advertisement says.

Don't misunderstand that 13 and 14 are No. 13 and 1 rooms, but No. 1 and No. 2 of Type 3 residence.There are only ten rooms on the thirteenth floor. Type 400 is a flat floor, Type [-] is a split-level duplex, and Type [-] is a combined long-term rental apartment.In the three higher floors, long-term rental apartments are gradually decreasing and disappearing, and there are more and more split-level duplexes.There are more than [-] households in the whole building, nearly [-] households. Do Menying remember to come over?

"We really can't remember everyone, but those who are as heroic and good-looking as the two, we will certainly not forget."

A welcoming and talking concierge increased Zhuang Xuteng's liking for this place. He also smiled, took out the key and handed it over, saying: "I asked someone to find a place to live, and they arranged me here. I want to live here. Do you need any procedures?"

"The key is the procedure, you can just stay at ease. We will send a detailed list to your residence for details of the facilities, services, and various charges here. There are not only the total amount for easy viewing, but also detailed branches. I will take you first How about going to see the room?"

Zhuang Xuteng nodded and asked the porter to lead the way, just in time for him to enjoy the feeling of being served to this extent.He used to rent an apartment, and the management staff there urged him to pay the rent as soon as they met. Even if he had already paid, he would be told: "Don't owe money!"

At that time, there were very few neighbors who did not owe money, and the apartment managers didn't bother to distinguish. Anyway, they were not afraid of being offended by the people who asked them and turning their faces.Finding a cheap place to live is a matter of luck. For Zhuang Xuteng, a former migrant worker, a 5% increase in rent could lead to bankruptcy.Wanting a more tempered apartment manager is simply a luxury.

"We will serve you wholeheartedly and ensure your satisfaction."

"Such a large piece of heated glass? That's too expensive."

This large viewing room is both a living room and a dining room, as well as a bedroom. A large mattress is stuck in the frame, placed between the fireplace and the window.Ge Gongdao laughed when he saw it, and said, isn't this to show the outside how he sleeps?Zhuang Xuteng shook his head. He pointed out that the glass here is all transparent, that is, it can see the outside but cannot be seen by outsiders.

"I prefer to be quiet, not to be disturbed when I go in and out, and don't greet loudly every time." Zhuang Xuteng made this request considering the secrecy of the mercenary profession. "Also, this elevator is a bit slow..."

After the concierge explained, Zhuang Xuteng understood that he could take the high-speed elevator directly to the 14th floor, and then go down one floor, which is often faster.Thinking of this, Zhuang Xuteng was a little worried, and asked, "I'm on the 13th floor with a platform above my head. Will someone go up and enter my house from the balcony?"

The concierge smiled and said, "If you need to lure people up and don't want to show off, just call the security guard at the side door. As for the elevator, considering that some people are older, they dare not adjust the speed too fast. But there is an exclusive 13th floor elevator. The only solution is to use step-by-step direct access to the high-speed ladder."

After paying the money, the concierge's attitude became better, and they took the initiative to ask them what requirements they had for living here in the elevator.

"Hehe, when you see the property fees and other bills, you will feel real again."

"You draw a list and see what is worth replacing in the house, and I will pay you a separate consultation and service fee." Zhuang Xuteng said to the concierge: "Since you live here, you have to live comfortably and comfortably. I will find someone to change the door and lock, and then arrange all the entrances and exits, what procedures are needed and which departments should be coordinated, can you help me do it together?"

"It's tempered glass, and it can be heated, so it won't feel cold when you're close to it in winter. It's the heated glass used in some cars," said the concierge.

The larger the size of the house, the better it looks. This feeling is quite straightforward and simple.The former owner of the house obviously understood this very well. He broke through the walls and remodeled the two houses in a unified way to create a connected comprehensive living room of nearly [-] square meters.

"What?" Zhuang Xuteng was taken aback for a moment, then saw Ge Gongdao secretly rubbing three fingers, and then pointed to the porter.Oh, got it, tipping... well, if good attitude is part of the service, and the service is not free, then the logic of tipping is smooth.

"How did you see it?" Ge Gongdao walked over curiously, leaned over the glass and observed carefully sideways. "Indeed, it's really transparent. I also saw some very thin wires, are they tempered wires?"

Zhuang Xuteng squatted down, looked at the street view of Peicheng outside the building, and said, "I don't have the ability to use money to make money. If I want to live here, I have to work hard. Brother Dao, I'm thinking, what should Sister Lucy use?" What kind of entrustment to train me, so that I can become a mercenary worthy of this kind of residence as soon as possible?"

Zhuang Xuteng shrugged.He didn't even know who the former owner was, let alone know his thoughts.

"Okay, then go and use your brain to make a list first, I want to complete the move-in preparations as soon as possible." Zhuang Xuteng waited for the concierge to leave, and said: "Brother Dao, this place feels good to me, but it's also very virtual, a bit unreal. "

"Hey, what are you thinking?" Ge Gongdao touched Zhuang Xuteng with his elbow, and said, "I've been too busy recently, have you not enough brains? Did you forget something?"

"Guest, your observation skills are really good. Originally, I shouldn't tell you about this, but you should find out in the service list." The concierge said: "The upstairs is a rooftop, and as a top-floor guest, there will always be a little bit of trouble." It's a privilege, especially if it's been expensively refurbished. You go around to the opposite side and there's an upward passage between the kitchen and the bathroom. I think it's a door made in the shape of a cupboard."

The other side of the elevator is made into the shape of an air-conditioning evaporation well, and the surrounding area is raised to avoid the eyes of residents on the [-]th floor and above. Only the direction facing the outside of the building is open, with a usable area of ​​about [-] square meters.The former owner made an open tea room here, as well as a barbecue stove.When Zhuang Xuteng saw this area, all he thought about was how to block it, or install a downhill escape device from here.

Zhuang Xuteng's explanations from the concierge could not make Zhuang Xuteng feel at ease. He must find an opportunity to go up and have a look, and personally grasp all the surrounding situations.He already had the idea of ​​living here at this time, and after seeing the interior of the room, this idea became even more firm.

"You're joking. The balcony is sealed with tempered glass, and he can't open it with his head..." The concierge said with a smile: "We have anti-theft and anti-intrusion settings on the roof platform, which can detect abnormal heat And move, and then sound the alarm. Oh, the helicopter landing pad is on the 27th floor, it will not affect you here. The 13th floor is here."

"We have, but we only have things that come with the rental apartment, which can guarantee comfort and cleanliness, but it can't compare with the best things on the market, let alone bespoke products."

270-degree lighting, the tempered glass windows connected to the roof and the floor below, highlighting a window that does not block the line of sight.Fortunately, the thirteenth floor is not too high, and all the windows are tilted to cover the near view and magnify the distant view, which reduces the feeling of "cliff edge" and strengthens the viewing effect of the city panorama.

Zhuang Xuteng saw that after opening the cupboard, there was indeed an elevator that could lead to the upstairs.The elevator is relatively narrow, and only two people can stand at a time, so Ge ​​Gongdao had to go up the second batch.

"Sir, there are three entrances and exits in the building. When you left just now, the front entrance was always very welcoming." The concierge said in detail: "The other two entrances and exits are very quiet, and there are porters in the underground garage to serve you at any time. , and there are only security guards at the side door here, all of them keep their mouths shut and only see the entrance card. If you need to be particularly quiet, you can go through those two passages."

Zhuang Xuteng looked at the balcony and bathroom, and saw that there were still four rooms that could be used as bedrooms or study rooms, so he made up his mind. "Okay, I don't bother to look around anymore, just here. Can your apartment management office find me daily necessities? Bed sheets, quilt covers, bath towels, pots and pans, etc. Do you have this service?"

"Fortunately, there are no tall buildings in this direction, otherwise it would look silly." Ge Gongdao complained: "It's only the thirteenth floor, what is he thinking? No one will know if it is surrounded by three sides. Isn't this one side open? Sigh , it’s not near the sea and the lake, and you can’t fish on a platform, so what are you thinking?”

Ge Gongdao stroked his beard and nodded: "It is very thoughtful, it seems that there is a market for this kind of demand!"

"Just use it first, and I'll talk about more things after I figure out how to modify them. If you have any equipment in the rental apartment above, just give me a set here." Zhuang Xuteng walked from the study into the living room, and suddenly stopped in his tracks. , and back again.He stared at the wall and said, "This thickness is wrong..."

"Only the bottom two meters have the heating function, and the part from the two meters to the roof is enough for waste heat." The concierge said: "The specific functions of the room are written in the brochure. The decoration here was also done by the engineering department of the building, so The records are relatively detailed. If the former tenants have made changes themselves, we will not know."

It is said that the question mark used to be "Have you eaten yet?" It felt so scary. Didn't you even have enough food in those days?Zhuang Xuteng thinks about it carefully, and it seems that there is no change. If he owes rent, he will not only lose his residence, but also lose his social status in Peicheng. The next step is to lose his regular job and quickly transform into a street vagrant.Once you start drifting, it is very difficult to get back to the previous state.Bankruptcy means not only that you have no money, but also that you are useless and can't eat the rice of modern society.Um?It feels like there is no progress in ancient and modern times...

"Don't worry, I'm here." Ge Gongdao also squatted down, patted Zhuang Xuteng's shoulder, and said, "Let's work hard together to stand firmly on this step, and then continue to climb up! Even if something goes wrong, we still have to There is a warehouse to live in. It’s only the 130th floor, not the [-]th floor!”

"Story 130? Are you talking about the Dingxin Tower?"

"I just increased it to ten times casually, without specifying it. But you reminded me, what would it be like to live on the top floor of the 130th floor of Dingxin Tower?"

"I only know that it's above the clouds." Zhuang Xuteng said, "I guess we can't see the villains on the ground, including us on the thirteenth floor."
