C35 (1/2)
Five minutes after the battle was over, he had only eaten sixty percent of his fill. Looking at a meat pie seller not far away from him, one for a dollar, he hesitated for a while and decided not to buy it. That was it, after he found a job, he would have a salary, and then he would have a fierce meal.
That's all I can tell myself.
After eating, I took a break and planned to look for a house later. It was at this time that the Lady Boss of Chaos came towards me, and I conveniently paid the money for Chaos. When I gave the money to the Lady Boss, I also conveniently asked, ”Boss, about that, do you know if there are people who rent houses nearby?”
The Lady Boss put the money into an oily purse hanging from her waist. She raised her head to look at me and said with a smile, ”Young lad, have you just graduated from university?”
I nodded my head in agreement. ”That's right! I've just graduated and am currently worrying about finding a house.”
The Lady Boss smiled and said, ”I've seen many boys like you. You must be looking for an intermediary, right?”
”How do you know?”
Not only do you know that I'm a fresh graduate, you can even tell that I'm looking for a place to live from the intermediary position. Could it be that she's the same as Monkey Sun and has a pair of Fiery Eyes of Truth?
The Lady Boss did not explain and just directly said, ”Young man, are you stupid? If you want to find a house, you have to go to some of the older residential areas. Although the house is a bit old, it's very comfortable to live in it, and the key is that the price is very cheap. Every old residential area has a notice board, and there's a hiring message on it.
Hearing the Lady Boss say that, I was immediately overjoyed. I wanted to kneel down and kowtow to her. She was like a living Bodhisattva that had fallen from the sky, saving me from fire and water.
At this moment, I thanked the Lady Boss profusely, wiped my mouth, picked up my bedroll, and began to wander around the area, looking for those older houses. The houses were old, and as long as I could live there, it would be better to have shelter from the wind and rain than to sleep on the streets.
After browsing around the first district, I saw a bulletin board with a lot of hiring information pasted on it. It was densely packed. Carrying the paperback, I stopped in front of the bulletin board and started searching for the information I needed.
I read a few of them in a row and kept their contact information, but the information only stated the size of the house and didn't say how much money it would cost. I could only bear with the pain as I took out my second-hand Motorola phone, which I had bought for one hundred yuan, and called the prices one by one. I asked four or five questions, none of them were low, and none of them reached the price I had expected.
It wasn't until the sixth that I saw a strange rent-seeking message. It read: ”Two houses and a courtyard will be rented out together. Price: 300. Address: 44 Flower Mansion Lane, Victory Street.”
Next was a contact number.
What kind of place was Victory Street? It was basically near the edge of South Sky City. It was bustling with activity, and the two houses with a large courtyard was only worth three hundred yuan.
Are you kidding me?
