I bring technology to my hometown to get rich

Chapter 415: Eviction Wave, Landlords Cry

After the Lunar New Year, it will soon be the start of a new year.

In an industrial area somewhere in southern Guangdong, landlords gathered together again to discuss raising rents for the new year.

"Last year, our country's economic growth rate exceeded 10%. This year, we will all raise the rent by another 20% on the basis of last year!"

Liang Xin took out a piece of economic data and spoke to the many landlords around him.

"The rent has to go up, otherwise our income won't keep up with the pace of economic development."

Sun Zhiwei on the side nodded solemnly to show his support.

“Is a 20% increase too much?”

Meng Wenjun thought for a moment and said, "We already raised the price by 10% last year. If we raise it by another 20% this year, many people may not accept it and will move to other places."

"Let them move out if they want. We don't need one or two tenants. Only those with ability can survive here. It's better for those without ability to move out early. I've encountered some people who have no ability but want to be bosses and open factories. They drag their feet every time collecting rent and pretend to be poor and miserable. It's very annoying."

Liang Xin said nonchalantly: "It has been decades, and we have always raised the price like this. They have to accept it even if they don't want to. The conditions elsewhere are not as good as ours."

"Besides, do you think that rents are rising only here? Rents are rising everywhere now."

"We landlords rely on rent to make a living. If the economy develops, of course we have to raise our rents. If we don't, our income won't keep up with the economic development."

"Yes, yes, the price will definitely increase."

"It's their business whether to rent or not. We don't need a few tenants."

Sun Zhiwei also said the same thing.

"The economy has been good in the past two years, and these small business owners have made a lot of money."

"Boss Li, who rented my factory, has bought a Wolf Traveling World anti-gravity aircraft worth more than 100 million yuan. They are very rich. If we don't raise their prices, whose prices will we raise?"

"Yes, it's time to raise the rent. My two buildings are also planning to raise the rent. I heard that the starting salaries of graduates have increased a lot, so our rent should also increase accordingly."

Others also followed suit and expressed their support.

"I think a 20% price increase is too much!" Meng Wenjun shook his head.

"If you think it's too much, you don't have to raise it." Liang Xin looked at Meng Wenjun and said.

"Yes, you have money anyway, you can just give it to them for free." Sun Zhiwei also said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, as long as everyone agrees, we can come." Meng Wenjun could only say helplessly. He felt that the current rent price was already very high. If the price increased further, many people might really move away from here.

Transportation is becoming more and more convenient now, especially with the advent of anti-gravity aircraft, traveling has become even more convenient.

Everyone can have more choices.

Apart from anything else, just the small bosses who rent their factories are actually not very big in scale.

Many of them are small bosses who only have a dozen machines and employ dozens of workers.

They usually do simple processing, and the profit is actually very low. If they have a choice, they will move their factories to the Midwest without hesitation.

The land in these places is extremely cheap, and the local labor is also cheap, which can greatly reduce costs and increase profits.

The only thing we need to worry about is that it will be difficult to get orders after moving there, there will be no supporting industries, etc.

But now with anti-gravity aircraft, these problems are no longer a problem.

So he thought that if he raised the price at this time, they might leave, and maybe no one would come to rent their factory in the future.

Their factories are not big, which means they are suitable for small factories run by small bosses. Large factories will not rent their factories.

There are also those specially built rental buildings, which are basically rented to people who work in big cities but do not own a house, especially recent graduates.

Meng Wenjun knows that there are many landlords who specifically target these graduates and bully outsiders and young people.

Withholding deposits, raising water and electricity prices, deliberately inflating water and electricity costs, charging various unreasonable additional fees, etc.

These young people often have no choice. They are just graduated and not experienced enough. Moreover, they are unfamiliar with the place and most of the time they can only endure it.

To the extent that some landlords specifically do these disgusting things, some have even resulted in deaths. Some people committed suicide because they could not stand the bloodsucking, verbal abuse, etc. of these landlords.

Some sub-landlords are even more disgusting. They want to squeeze the blood out of their tenants and try every possible means to cheat them.

Meng Wenjun saw all of this, but he couldn't change anything because he made a living by collecting rent.

For these locals, it is definitely impossible to work. They can only survive by collecting rent. No rent increase means that everyone's income has not increased, and everyone's food and drink consumption cannot be increased.

Therefore, these landlords, including sub-landlords, get together every year to discuss raising prices, and even share how to cheat tenants.

Soon, everyone agreed to increase the price by 20% this year.

And everyone began to quickly contact their tenants to inform them of the price increase.

"Hey!"

"Boss Li, may you have a good fortune in the new year! May you have a good fortune in the new year!"

"I called you mainly to inform you that the rent will increase by 20% this year!"

Liang Xin contacted Mr. Li, who rented his factory, and directly informed him of the 20% price increase this year.

“A 20% price increase?”

"Isn't your increase too outrageous?"

When Boss Li heard this, he was immediately furious. The price had been rising every year, and it was getting more outrageous every year. This year, the price was going to increase by 20%. According to this price, all his hard work for the whole year was for nothing. "Boss Li, the country's economy is developing, and the prices of everything are rising. It is only right that we raise the price."

"See if you can rent it. If you can, please transfer the first quarter's rent to me first."

"If you can't rent it, please vacate the factory before the contract expires and don't delay me renting it to someone else."

Liang Xin's words clearly did not mean any negotiation.

"Then I won't rent it. I will vacate the factory in the next few days."

He originally thought that Boss Li would hesitate and consider for a few days, but who knew that the other party would be so direct and decisive in saying that he would not rent the house.

".OK!"

After a long while, Liang Xin slowly uttered a word.

In fact, it is not easy to find a suitable tenant. Those without strong financial strength will go bankrupt before the lease is too long, and the rent cannot be collected for long. Strong bosses will not rent these small factories.

Boss Li has rented the space here for several years and his business has always been good, which is the main reason why he saw the price increase.

Because he knew that Boss Li made money, he would have to accept the price increase, otherwise it would be very troublesome for him to find a new factory and relocate.

"Forget it, I have a factory and I'm afraid no one will rent it."

Liang Xin looked at the people around him and said.

“You don’t want to rent it anymore?”

At this time, Sun Zhiwei on the side also spoke up. After hearing the price increase, the small boss who rented his factory actually said that he would not rent it. His attitude was very firm, as if he had already made the decision.

At this time, Meng Wenjun's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Boss Wang who rented his factory.

"Boss Wang, may you have a prosperous New Year!"

"Landlord, may you have a prosperous New Year, a prosperous New Year!"

When the call was connected, the other party got straight to the point without much nonsense and said, "Landlord, I called you to tell you that I will not rent your factory this year. I will move the equipment away and vacate the factory in the next two days."

"You can start posting notices and registering online now to avoid delaying the rental of your factory."

Hearing what Boss Wang said, Meng Wenjun couldn't help but scratch his hair and said, "Boss Wang, why don't you rent it?"

"Did you encounter any difficulties?"

"It's okay to delay the rent a little bit."

Meng Wenjun is a conscientious landlord and usually has a good relationship with his tenants.

"No no."

"The main reason is that I plan to move the factory to my hometown."

"The land and labor are cheap here in my hometown."

"Isn't your hometown in the mountains?"

"It's in the mountainous area, but it doesn't have much impact right now. I only have a dozen machines anyway, so it's the same everywhere."

"."

After hanging up the phone, Meng Wenjun was dumbfounded. He hadn't even mentioned the rent increase yet, but the tenant had already decided to move out.

Liang Xin, Sun Zhiwei, Meng Wenjun and others looked at each other, and they always felt that something seemed to be wrong.

They notified their tenants one by one about the rent increase, but who would have thought that these tenants actually refused to rent the property.

"Humph!"

"If they don't want to rent it, forget it!"

"We have plenty of people renting it, I just don't believe it."

Liang Xin said in disbelief as he posted a rental advertisement in the virtual world.

"Yes, forget it if you don't want to rent it!"

"It's been decades since we've had factories and houses that we can rent out. We should raise prices accordingly."

Sun Zhiwei also said: "If they don't rent our house, I don't think they can survive here."

"Some are renting our house, and soon our house will be rented out."

"I just notified several tenants, and they also said they didn't want to rent anymore. They are so rebellious. If they don't want to rent, do they have the ability to buy their own houses?"

"Maybe they are banding together to put pressure on us landlords. We can't indulge them."

"Yes, we can't spoil them."

The others followed suit and spoke at the same time.

They didn't care too much about such things. They had been collecting rent for decades and had seen all kinds of storms and what kind of people they hadn't experienced.

However, they soon began to get anxious.
