Chapter 196 Being able to eat is a blessing 4
Around four o'clock in the afternoon,
The two banquet tables ordered by Bai Xi were all completed and packed in take-out boxes.
"Sister Bai, can you take so much away? How about we put it in a bamboo basket for you and let our family deliver it to you."
Looking at the piles of take-out boxes and seeing that Bai Xi didn't look very strong, the landlady said a few polite words.
"No need! Thank you, boss lady."
With that said, Bai Xi walked out with two big bags, found a secluded place in the old street, and put the bags into the space.
Then, start looking for a house for yourself.
Because it is in a town, there are many rental houses, so it is easy to find one.
"Although the rent of this house is higher, the interior furniture has been newly decorated and you can move in with just your bags."
The landlord took Bai Xi into the house.
She looked into the room. It was well lit and clean. The sofas, tables and chairs looked new.
The furniture in the bedroom is also new.
Checked the layout of the house.
The house is on the fourth floor. From the windows of the living room and two bedrooms, you can see the street outside. The view is very wide, and you can see the bridges on both sides and the East Street opposite.
The surrounding roads are also clear, so if an accident occurs, there are many directions for escape.
Bai Xi was very satisfied with the house. She turned to look at the landlord and said, "Auntie, I told you just now. I am a tourist here because of the reputation, so the rental time may not be too long. I only rent it for one month. You can think of it.
?"
Since the town gained its reputation as a national-level experimental base for new crops, tourists or visiting groups have often come to the town.
Naturally, the landlady also knows that she decorated this house to rent it to tourists.
But in order to raise the price, she deliberately lowered her head, looking reluctant.
"Only renting for one month is a bit short. By then I will have to pack up the house and rent it to others, which will be a bit troublesome."
"Can you just tell me the price?"
Bai Xi naturally knew that the landlord wanted to raise the price. Anyway, she had bought enough supplies, and the money in the space was of no use anymore, so she would use it.
"Little girl, it's not that my aunt is evil. Look at this house. It has furniture, appliances, and even dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen. The high price is reasonable, right?"
While the landlord was talking, he observed Bai Xi's expression and saw that she was always smiling without any change in expression, so she was a little unsure.
Is this girl willing to increase the price?
The landlord was very confused.
If it's too low, I won't be happy with it. If it's too high, I'm afraid Bai Xi won't rent a house.
I cried and cried for a long time before I expressed my inner feelings.
"Seeing as you are still a student, Auntie will give you a friendly price, 1,800 a month."
Looking at Bai Xi's expression, the landlady continued to explain: "Little girl, don't think the price is high.
Our community is the best in the entire town, and the residents are all people who love cleanliness and have high quality.
It’s not like those farmers who often work in the fields, and their bodies and feet are covered in mud, making them extremely dirty.”
She is afraid that Bai Xi will not be happy.
After all, the price of a two-bedroom apartment in a provincial capital is only about this, but the price of a two-bedroom apartment in a rural town is indeed a bit high.
"Okay! Auntie, do you also live in this community?" Bai Xi asked casually.
"That's right!" After saying that, the landlord took out a small receipt book from his bag and asked: "Little girl, do you pay in cash or by mobile phone?"
"Cash it!"
Bai Xi took off the backpack she was carrying, put her hand in, and took out two thousand yuan from the space.
He counted out two sheets, counted the rest again, and handed them to the landlord, "Auntie, count them."
Taking the banknotes happily, the landlord licked his fingers and counted them carefully.
"Yes. This is the key to the house. If you feel uneasy, you can change the key."
The landlord issued a receipt, handed the door key to Bai Xi, and asked: "What is your mobile phone number? Do you have your ID card? I'll note it down."
Bai Xi looked sorry,
"Auntie, I'm sorry.
When I arrived, my luggage was lost, and my mobile phone and ID card were both inside.
If this backpack hadn't been there, I would have been sleeping on the street."
"You don't have a phone number or an ID card, so how can I rest assured?" The landlord was a little worried.
"Auntie, I remember the ID number, just fill it in. I'll get the ID card and phone number tomorrow."
Bai Xi looked embarrassed, but she was secretly glad that she had gone to the bank before and took a look at the ID card of this world.
"That will cost you one month's rent." The landlord took the opportunity to make a request.
Bai Xi happily paid an extra month's rent, filled out a fake ID card on the rental contract, and left the landlord's phone number.
Putting away the contract, the landlord smiled and said:
"Little girl, you came to our town at this time of year, but you came at the right time.
At this time, the farmland outside the town looked golden and beautiful at first glance.
If you had come half a month earlier or half a month later, you wouldn't have seen this scene."
The landlord also lives in this community, and Bai Xi is alone. She is not afraid that Bai Xi is a liar or anything.
After all, locals are not easy to mess with.
There are acquaintances everywhere, and dozens of young people will be attracted to you every minute, which will scare you to death.
"I have to take a good look." Bai Xi smiled and sent the landlord out.
"Oh! By the way. When buying food, you can go to West Street, not East Street.
I don’t know what’s going on in the past two days. The food on East Street is not very tasty, and some of it has gone bad.”
The landlord reminded, waving his hand towards Bai Xi, "Okay, you don't have to send it away, just go back and clean it up!"
"Okay, then walk slowly."
Turning back to the house, Bai Xi walked around the house again to make sure there was no monitoring equipment.
She returned to the living room, sat on the sofa, and looked straight ahead.
[Side mission: One-day tour to the town government
The fact that Dongping Town can become a major grain-producing town at the municipal level is inseparable from the fact that the leadership of the town government attaches great importance to agriculture and strives to develop agriculture.
Players are invited to take a one-day tour of the town government to experience the agricultural culture of this town.
Mission reward: a lottery]
Looking at the system light screen in front of him, Bai Xi fell into thinking.
The landlady reminded her that the food on East Street was not edible. When she was walking around, the people she heard complaining about food problems were mostly on East Street.
Now the task target town government is also on Dongjie. It seems that there is information on Dongjie.
I looked at the dim sky outside the window. The clock on the wall showed that it was already past six in the afternoon.
Taking out a piece of dry-pot duck from the space, Bai Xi walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the master bedroom and sat down, observing the situation on the street outside while eating.
In addition to the good location, another reason why she chose to rent this apartment was the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Chapter completed!
