Financial freedom starts with the pursuit of a cool female doctor

Chapter 28 Homeless Zhuo Tong

He lives at the outermost part of the entire urban village, close to the main road, so the air quality is pretty good.

Some time ago, the urban village had been undergoing large-scale expansion, making the entire Heishizhou smoky and dusty.

Many tenants gave up their leases and moved out because the environment became bad.

Either move to the periphery or move to another place, because there is almost no one in that area inside.

The outrageous thing is that these buildings are not demolished and rebuilt, but expanded upward and outward on the basis of the original self-built houses, squeezing a lot of space.

The renovation was obviously done in a hurry. In many places, yellow mud and red bricks were used. They didn't even bother to use reinforced concrete, and it looked shaky.

According to the past, construction would start at six in the morning, but for some reason, no movement has been heard until now.

"Did the landlord send you here because he's busy looking after the construction site?"

"indeed so."

Zhuo Tong was so busy looking around that he didn't notice that Lin Yuxuan's expression was changing from gloomy to bright.

"But why do they suddenly want to expand? It can't be because the house is not big enough?"

Hearing this, the atmosphere suddenly darkened. Lin Yuxuan lowered his voice and spoke clearly:
"A few days ago, a good friend of my father came to our house, and after some persuasion, my father decided to start the expansion."

"If I understand correctly, it should be related to the recently mentioned construction of the subway."

Zhuo Tong let out a long "Oh~" and roughly understood the situation.

The landlord must have learned through his friends that a subway was going to be built in this urban village, so it would be demolished.

In order to earn more money from the demolition, he began to expand the house vigorously and increase the area of ​​the house.

"But this is clearly a dangerous building. Isn't it dangerous?"

"This... I also advised my father at the time that this matter was too impulsive and needed to be carefully considered, but he insisted on his own way and chose to trust his friend."

"I see."

Since this is someone else's own business, Zhuo Tong is not in a position to express any opinions. He can just treat it as an interesting story.

Anyway, I won't be living here again in the future, so there's no need to pay too much attention to it.

……

After leaving the urban village, Zhuo Tong drove to Starbucks to discuss renting a house.

I sat in the store, ordered a matcha latte, and then found a seat.

Not long after sending a message to the landlord, a middle-aged woman in silk pajamas walked in quickly and found Zhuo Tong according to the description.

As soon as she sat down, she began to apologize:
"Oh sir, I'm so sorry."

Zhuo Tong was a little confused:

"What's wrong? Is it about the house?"

"Yeah, I just asked those two tenants. You know, they're both about to graduate from Shenzhen University, but one of them is staying on to pursue a master's degree, while the other has chosen to cancel the lease."

"But that graduate student just called me and told me she wants to cancel her lease. This means there might be no one to share the rent with."

The original rent of the house was 10,000 yuan, and the two of them shared it, so it was 5,000 yuan.

Now that I have one less roommate, although I can have the whole room to myself, the price is twice as expensive.

Zhuo Tong originally thought that he could accept renting an apartment alone. Money was not a problem after all, and he still had 4.7 million yuan lying in his card.

But the landlord did not give him a chance to speak, and continued:
"So I'm not planning to rent it out for the time being. I just happen to be planning to sell the house, so I'm really sorry to tell you this."

She was smiling playfully and showed no apology at all.

Zhuo Tong just felt very depressed.

We had agreed to rent the house online, but the other tenant ended up canceling the lease. As the landlord, why are you going back on your word?
Fortunately, I don’t have much luggage, and now I have put it all in the suitcase. Otherwise, dragging so many bags would only make me more depressed.

But there is no place to stay right now, so I have to find another way, or stay in a hotel temporarily for a while.

"Do you have any other houses that can be moved into right now?"

"No, I sold them all and put them in the bank. The economy is tough right now, as you know. Having cash on hand gives me peace of mind."

That is indeed the truth, but isn't it too reckless of you to sell all the houses at once?
But since the other party had gone back on his word, there was no need for him to remind him. He could only wave his hand and say:
"Forget it, I'll find another place to live."

"Hehehe, as long as you understand, I'm leaving first."

After the landlord left, Zhuo Tong looked at the half cup of matcha latte that he had only taken a sip of, frowned, and threw it directly into the trash can.

Perhaps because he was about to become homeless and was stood up by his landlord, he complained:
"It tastes terrible."

Then I took out my phone and was about to start looking for a hotel to stay in for the night when the system appeared just in time:
Even when faced with setbacks, Bruce Wayne never left the vast Wayne Manor; it was his legacy. [Special Mission: Receive $10 million in special funds for purchasing a home. Purchase within 24 hours. Receive a cashback based on the property's rating, equal to the original purchase price. After 24 hours, any remaining funds will be automatically deducted.]

[Note: The purpose of special funds is fixed. For example, special funds for house purchase can only be used for matters related to house purchase.]

"It's like a pillow is given to me when I'm sleepy. With this 10 million, I don't have to worry about renting a house."

Although the 10 million can only be used to buy a house, cash will be returned after the task is completed.

In other words, if you spend eight million to buy a house and the house's rating is 100 points, then the eight million will be 100% cashed back, and the remaining two million will be automatically deducted after the expiration.

"Ding Dong"

Zhuo Tong took out his cell phone, and there was a text message about a deposit of 10 million yuan.

At the same time, there were advertisements for various financial products from Huaguo Bank, and he directly replied with a "T".

Speaking of which, this is the first task Zhuo Tong has encountered that directly pays money. In the past, it was all various special props.

"But in Shenzhen, even ten million wouldn't be enough to buy the best luxury house..."

Zhuo Tong clicked on 69.com and was shocked by the housing prices.

I can only say that Shenzhen is worthy of being one of China's four first-tier cities.

Due to limited time, he chose to mobilize the connections he had accumulated during his sales period instead of choosing one by one:

"Hello, Sister Wang? It's me, Zhuo Tong. I recently met a client who's planning to buy a house worth over 10 million yuan. I'm wondering if you have any recommendations."

……

Shenyeyun Bay, sales office.

"Xiaoxue, why are you here again? You said that the company's treatment has been good all these years since you joined, right?"

"Not bad... My salary is much higher than that of my classmates..."

Qi Shuangxue, wearing a white shirt and a tight skirt, lowered her head and did not dare to look directly at the manager in front of her.

But it was obvious that even though this was not the first time she had faced this situation, she still couldn't bring herself to do it.

"Is that so? Then why do you keep asking for salary advances, and even for several months at a time?"

"If you can sell the house, I might not say anything. Forget about the advance. I can even lend it to you privately."

"But in the past six months, not only have you not been able to close a single order, you've also been paid an advance of six months' salary."

The manager looked embarrassed. Even though he was the boss of the sales office, he couldn't just give his employees salary advances.

"Okay, I'll be paying you your salary right now, but you're asking for an advance. Are we a sales office or a bank loan department?"

"If you can't write an order, you might say it's because the economy is bad and people aren't buying houses, but where did you spend all that money?"

Qi Shuangxue could only continue to use the explanation she had used several times:

"Manager, you know, my boyfriend is starting a business in Hong Kong and has been having trouble with cash flow lately. I have to help him."

"Oh, it's that entrepreneurial boyfriend of yours again. He's been running his business for a year and still has to rely on his girlfriend for support. What a piece of shit!"

After the manager finished speaking, the office fell into silence.

Even though the other party accused her boyfriend like this, Qi Shuangxue did not dare to complain, because the fact was that she was in the wrong.

After a while, the manager finally relented in response to Qi Shuangxue's positive work attitude:
"I can only give you a two-month advance at most, not more."

Anyway, this is not the first time he has given Qi Shuangxue an advance on her salary. This time more is not much, and this time less is not much either.

Upon hearing this, Qi Shuangxue bowed deeply to the manager, the rabbit in her shirt bouncing up and down:
“Thank you, Manager!”

"Don't thank me. If you don't achieve good results, you might have to lay off employees soon. Be careful."

The manager's kind reminder was to stop there, after all, reality is cruel.

"I see."

After she walked out of the manager's office, she could only take small steps because she was wearing high heels and a tight skirt, and found a secluded corner where no one was.

After making sure that no one was eavesdropping, she took out her cell phone and called her boyfriend who was starting a business in Hong Kong.

After the call was connected, I could vaguely hear noisy voices and passionate music in the background.

The man's tone was high and drawn out, and he seemed very impatient:

"Hello, who is it?"
