Jagged city

Chapter 23 Renting a house

Lin Tao returned to the dormitory, and unexpectedly saw that the three brothers were all in the dormitory. Didn't he say that he was the last one to come back? Hu Lin stared at Lin Tao with stern eyes, and Qiao Kun and Jin Xin also looked at him with resentment. He, as if he had been wronged by the sky, Lin Tao couldn't stand the eyes of the three, especially the red envelopes of Hu Lin Qiaokun and Jin Xin, Lin Tao couldn't help laughing out loud. └@ ┘

"You—why are you acting like a pig's head?"

"Group fight—group fight" three angry youths pinned Lin Tao on the bed and flattened him. Lin Tao had no choice but to ask for forgiveness. It turned out that the three had been in the park all the time. Luckily, Hu Lin took advantage of him by kissing his face or something. Qiao Kun and Ma Lan were admiring the moon by the lake, Jin Xin and Qu Hong were talking about life in a small pavilion, but they were unbearably bitten by mosquitoes. Within half an hour, the three women all resigned one after another, because scratching in front of a man was really indecent. I had no choice but to send the beauty to the car, and then returned to the University of Medical Sciences angrily. The three of them did not spend more than 10 minutes on each other. They looked at each other and scratched and couldn't help smiling bitterly.The three of them spent two hours complaining, and only then did they see Lin Tao's late arrival.

"Leniency for confession, strictness for resistance" The three implemented the dictatorship of the proletariat against Lin Tao. In the face of the powerful forces of the dictatorship, Lin Tao had no choice but to confess frankly.

"Cold drink shop—***, why didn't I think of it, what a fucking idiot"

"Kiss no—"

"No--"

"Is there any?" The three guys asked with red eyes.

"Kiss"

"You really kissed—oh heaven, earth, kill me. Such a good opportunity was in front of me, but I let her run away. If God gave me another chance, I would definitely kiss her." Mouth" Hu Lin screamed on the bed, like a little widow being abused.

"Fourth, why are you smirking?" The eldest Qiao Kun looked at Jin Xin strangely.Jin Xin said embarrassedly: "When Qu Hong got into the car, she gave me a kiss, hehe!"

"My God, even fools have succeeded." Hu Lin screamed——

The next day, the four wolf friends of 608 started their study career again. Lin Tao listened very carefully in class and took meticulous notes. Girls often came to ask him to borrow notes.Lin Tao’s schedule is very regular. Every morning, he goes to the woods to breathe at 04:30, practices Baguazhang at 05:30, takes a shower at 06:30, has breakfast at 07:30, and goes to the classroom for self-study at [-]:[-]. They are all in the library, and they have a video call with Jin Zhenai every three days, but the two of them are mostly chatting, and they seem to be gradually estranged, but Xiao Xiao will call every night to say hello, and they will meet every Sunday. Under Hu Lin's instigation, the swimming program was retained, but a month later, the big reunion seemed impossible. Ma Lan and Qu Hong declined the invitation. Lin and Guo Li are so hot that they want to rent a house to live together.The relationship between Lin Tao and Xiao Xiao is tepid. Although Lin Tao deliberately keeps a low profile and keeps a distance, the relationship between the two is still rising in a straight line.

Qiao Kun and Jin Xin were devastated, and Hu Lin was too embarrassed to talk about their progress in front of them. One day at noon, Hu Lin mysteriously called Lin Tao out of the school.

"What are you doing sneakily?" Lin Tao didn't know what kind of tricks this kid had.

"I rented a house with two bedrooms and one living room. I have no class this afternoon. Please help me with it."

"Damn, I was pulled by you, are you bragging in front of me?" Lin Tao punched Hu Lin, and Hu Lin grinned and said, "Boy, there are two rooms and one living room. A room, when will you be with Xiao Xiao—hehe, that would be much more convenient.”

The two bad friends came to an alley on the west side of the University of Medical Sciences. This street is full of five-story buildings, all of which are old buildings in the 80s, but the shops on the street are still prosperous. Hu Lin pointed to a dilapidated storefront. The small restaurant, it turned out that the house that Hu Lin rented was on the roof of the small restaurant, but the small restaurant was locked, with two big characters written on it, and a string of phone numbers, Lin Tao was moved.Lin Tao was pulled upstairs by Hu Lin for a visit.Originally, the two rooms and one living room and the small restaurant downstairs belonged to the same family. The restaurant was not managed well, and the people from Shanxi ran away in arrears of one month's rent. After paying 4000 yuan for five months' rent, Hu Lin was allowed to rent the two-bedroom upstairs.The hotel had to rent again.Hu Lin brought Lin Tao here to paint, and Lin Tao asked him why he didn't hire someone to do it. Hu Lin said that it was meaningful to decorate the new house by himself, but Lin Tao was so angry that he said, it is meaningful for you to decorate it by yourself, so it has nothing to do with me Ah, when Hu Lin promised a French feast, Lin Tao had no choice but to succumb to his prestige.

It took the two of them three hours to repaint one bedroom and mop the floor to shine. The other bedroom has four bunk beds, which were originally used by the employees of the small hotel.Hu Lin suggested to give those broken beds to the waste collectors, and then buy a big bed for Lin Tao and Xiao Xiaole.

"That's good."

"What, I heard you right, how can you two struggle with such a narrow wooden bed, you must not fall on the ground, or brother will pay for the bed for you"

"Stop, I'm full of dirty thoughts. I want to rent the small restaurant downstairs. Mr. Zhang didn't say how much the restaurant downstairs costs."

"Forty thousand a year. You really want to rent it. Didn't you see that the restaurants are closed? It's not the same after you rent it. Besides, you don't have time to take care of this small shop." Hu Lin looked in front of him incredulously The monster, the heart said, this Lin Tao's head was squeezed by the door.

"Actually, this small shop is close to the Xiaoximen of our school. As long as it is well managed, the students can make a profit. Let me call and ask." Lin Tao began to dial the phone.

"Damn it, no, you're serious." Hu Lin was overwhelmed by Lin Tao's resolute action.

"Hello, is this Mr. Zhang—I'm Hu Lin's classmate who rented your house at the west gate of Medical University—that's it—I want to rent that small restaurant—really, it's not adulterated at all—Mrs. Too much, the business here is not very good - [-], that's too expensive - [-] can't be lower, look, the upstairs is rented out, if there is a restaurant downstairs, you have to arrange another accommodation — Thirty-three thousand, how about this, thirty thousand in one lump sum—Okay, you can take the contract directly.” Lin Tao put down the phone and looked at the stunned Hu Lin.

"Dude, you are serious, 3 yuan, what are you doing?"

"Is there a way for the car to reach the mountain? I can't accompany it anyway." Lin Tao was full of confidence.Half an hour later, Mr. Zhang arrived by car. It turned out that Mr. Zhang was working in the tax bureau. He looked 36 or seven years old, slightly fat, and wore a pair of glasses.

"That's right, young people are motivated, little brother, don't worry, rent my house, no one will bother you about industrial and commercial taxation, sanitation and other guarantees, that Shanxi native has no brains, you have to rent it to make a fortune," Mr. Zhang encouraged Lips and tongues slapped fiercely. Lin Tao grew up in a business family. Although he didn't have much contact with him, he was influenced by his ears and eyes, and he didn't give it in vain.

"Mr. Zhang is like this. I pay [-] yuan in one year's rent at a time, but I can renew the lease for five years without changing the rent. I will pay the down payment every year. If I want to cancel the lease, I will notify you one month in advance and I will not pay liquidated damages. What do you think? "

"Okay, young people are quick to do things, I don't talk nonsense, go print the agreement immediately, and you go to withdraw the money." Mr. Zhang said happily and went downstairs to print the materials. Lin Tao went to the bank to withdraw money under Hu Lin's astonished eyes. When I was young, the two parties on the second floor read the ID cards and property rights certificates, and signed the agreement formally. Lin Tao handed over 3 yuan to Mr. Zhang. Director Zhang hummed a little song Xiaolou, and turned on the phone with a smile on his face: "Xiaomei! , Do you have time today? I see that Dongxing Department Store has a sapphire and platinum necklace that suits you—yes, it’s the [-] model—OK, I’ll pick you up."

"You really want to open a restaurant." Hu Lin said this to Lin Tao for an hour. Lin Tao opened the lock of the restaurant downstairs and looked aside. The [-]-square-meter kitchen has everything, and it is four square meters. The toilet, a grocery room of [-] square meters, and a business hall of [-] square meters are equipped with eight square tables, a refrigerator, and a small bar.

"Not bad, as long as you recruit people, you can start working. Did the boss of Shanxi leave us a lot of good things?" Lin Tao beamed with joy, and walked around several times inside and outside.

"Okay, seeing how confident you are, I won't hit you anymore. After the opening, I'll help you bring some friends over to support you," Hu Lin said helplessly.

Of course, the news of Lin Tao opening a restaurant cannot be hidden from the brothers in the dormitory. Qiao Kun and Jin Xin also became excited when they heard it, arguing that they would do something big with Lin Tao.The fact that Hu Lin rented the love nest was despised by his elder brothers. Of course, Hu Lin was not good at irritating Qiao Kun and Jin Xin.Jin Xin said gruffly: "Qu Hong didn't say she wouldn't make friends, but she said she should encourage each other, make progress together, and find a good job in the future." It turned out that Qu Hong and Jin Xin's family conditions were not good, one was a worker's family, One is a rural family. The workers are not as wealthy as the peasants. The reality of the situation forces them to take on part of the family responsibilities.

"Damn, it turns out that you still secretly communicated with the song!" Qiao Kun said with some jealousy. He didn't think that he would break the four pairs most thoroughly. That Malan had already been taken away by a boy from K University. I didn't care too much about the principle of getting together and getting together, but a week later, I was attracted by a senior from the University of Medical Sciences and launched an offensive, but everything was going on quietly.

In the next week, Lin Tao began to plan the renovation and opening of the restaurant.The three brothers also followed suit.
