During the screening process, she even saw Xu Changkai’s name. He was the eldest son of her scumbag father and his ex-wife. She remembered that Xu Changkai already had a girlfriend. He had never gotten married, so he had no place to stay. Was he looking for a wedding room here?
Xu Ying crossed out his name without hesitation. He had bullied her a lot in the past. Even if she had already eaten something, Xu Changkai would take it out of her mouth. He would not even give it to her, even if it was to feed the dogs! She would hate him for the rest of her life.
After the screening, there were only about 20 people left. Xu Ying called them one by one to ask some questions again. She deleted a few who answered the questions evasively. In the end, she confirmed 12 tenants. There were men, women, old and young. They all looked innocent and good people. Then, she told them to pack their luggage within three days and pay for the key cards.
Xu Ying started to clean up the place. Now that there were so many public areas, she couldn’t do it all by herself. She even wanted to hire a cleaner. However, she didn’t have much chance to do so with her funds right now. It was better to wait a little longer.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and new tenants arrived.
Ge Aiyao was also one of the tenants. Strictly speaking, she was ordered to investigate the situation. She had no choice. Her grandfather was the one who gave the order, and he was also the old chief of the Vermilion Bird Base. She was originally living in a small two-bedroom apartment with her parents, but now she was forced to live in a dormitory. She had been throwing a tantrum for the past few days.
In her opinion, since this Peach Blossom Land could offer so many rooms at once and the rent was not high, it must be a collective dormitory. The conditions were not good. She had filled in the form reluctantly. She had always hoped that this Peach Blossom Land would eliminate her from the tenant list, but in the end, she was actually chosen! Under her grandfather’s command, she could only come reluctantly.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw a solid electric fence outside. At that height, if she couldn’t fly, she really couldn’t get out. The security here was barely passable.
At this time, there were already six or seven people gathered at the door. There were men and women, old and young. Except for Ge Aiyao, the others were introducing themselves to each other, planning to build a good relationship with the neighbors in advance.
“Look at this electric fence. It looks safe. The only places in the Vermilion Bird Base that have such security measures are the places where the rich and powerful live. I didn’t expect that ordinary people like us could live in such places.” The person who spoke was the man of the middle-aged couple. His name was Jia Guang. He was relatively talkative. Although he was dressed plainly, he was more energetic.
His wife also nodded in agreement. Looking at the Peach Blossom Land, her eyes were filled with yearning for the future.
At this moment, an auntie in her fifties also said with emotion, “Yeah, the main thing is that the rent is really not expensive, and it doesn’t require contribution points. An old lady like me really can’t get base contribution points. Previously, my son-in-law and I lived in a small place of 30 square meters. For a month, we had to pay 20,000 gold coins and additional contribution points. My son-in-law thinks and he is insinuating that I’m too old and wants me to leave. But if I could find a place, I would have moved out long ago..”
These words gained the consensus of the crowd.
After all, they couldn’t find a suitable room until now, and some of them didn’t even have a place to live. Now that the rooms in Peach Blossom Land were so good and cheap, it was really timely.
Only Ge Aiyao didn’t say anything. She observed them silently. Although these people looked plain, they all looked serious and decent. It was obvious that they all had a stable income. However, such a person couldn’t even find a place to live in the Vermilion Bird Base. It was obvious that the housing situation in the base was really saturated. It was also because there were more and more people living here that the management became more and more chaotic. In that case, this Peach Blossom Land was a good place to relieve the shortage of land in the Vermilion Bird Base.
“Welcome, tenants. My master is waiting in the living room.”
Jia Guang said, “Oh, there’s a butler here. This rent is really worth it.”
Ge Aiyao was also a little surprised. It was really classy.
After entering the hall, Ge Aiyao first saw a clean and brand-new sofa, a glass coffee table, and even an LCD TV. The public area here also looked more comfortable. As she looked at it, she began to wonder where the landlord found such brand new furniture and appliances. After the apocalypse, many light industries had stopped production. There hadn’t been any new products for twenty years.
“Welcome, everyone. I am the owner of Peach Blossom Land, Xu Ying. This is a rental contract. Everyone, take a look first.”
Ge Aiyao was a little surprised when she saw the contract in Xu Ying’s hand. She had thought about what the owner looked like, but she had never thought that she would be a minor. Her grandfather said that the owner of the Peach Blossom Land had a powerful background.
