Chapter 166 Chapter 164 Big House

"Two gentlemen, welcome. Are you here to visit friends or to view a house?"

"I didn't expect that Wenxin Building looks like a hotel. When you enter the door, you will see the front desk, and there are these waiters in white and gold." Ge Gongdao looked around, then patted Zhuang Xuteng and said to the concierges: "You guessed wrong.

, not at all. This kid lives here, and it’s just his first time here. Yes, can you remember all the residents?”

Wenxin Building is a fifty-two-story giant residential building. It is one of the landmark buildings in Liming District. It is divided into four parts, with thirteen floors as a group, narrowing from bottom to top. Zhuang Xuteng

Living in 1313 and 1314 is equivalent to the top floor of the first staircase. There is a platform above the head, so you will not be disturbed by the sound of footsteps - at least this is what is promoted in the advertisement.

Don’t misunderstand that rooms 13 and 14 are the thirteenth and fourteenth rooms, but the third and fourth rooms of type 1 residence. There are only ten rooms in the thirteenth floor. Type 1 is a large flat floor, and type 2 is a flat floor.

Type 3 is a combined long-term rental apartment. In the higher three levels, the long-term rental apartments gradually decrease and disappear, and there are more and more split-level duplexes. The whole building has more than 400 households and nearly 2,000 residents.

, Men Ying, did you remember to come?

"We really can't remember everyone, but we will definitely not forget those two who are so heroic and outstanding in appearance."

A smiling and talkative concierge made Zhuang Xuteng's impression of this place more favorable. He also smiled, took out the key and handed it over, saying, "I asked someone to find a place to live, so they arranged for me to stay here. I want to live here."

Are there any procedures required?”

"The key is the procedure, just rest assured and stay here. We will send a detailed bill to your residence regarding the facilities, services and various charges and other details. It includes the total amount for easy viewing and detailed branches. I will take you first

How about going to see the room?"

Zhuang Xuteng nodded and let the concierge lead the way. He just wanted to enjoy the feeling of being taken care of. In the past, when he rented an apartment, the management staff there would urge him to pay the rent as soon as he met. Even if he had already paid, he would be punished.

Say the last sentence: "Don't owe money!"

At that time, there were very few neighbors who did not owe money, and the apartment managers were too lazy to tell the difference. Anyway, they were not afraid of being offended by the people who asked and would fall out. Finding a cheap place to live depends on luck. For Zhuang Xuteng, a former migrant worker,

A 5% increase in rent may cause him to go bankrupt. An apartment manager who wants to be better-tempered is simply wishful thinking.

The other side of the elevator is shaped like an air-conditioning evaporation well, and is surrounded on all sides to avoid the eyes of residents on the 14th floor and above. Only the direction facing the outside of the building is open, with a usable area of ​​about 70 square meters.

The previous owner built an open tea room and a barbecue stove here. When Zhuang Xuteng saw this area, all he thought about was how to block it or install rappelling escape equipment from here.

"What?" Zhuang Xuteng was stunned, and then he saw Ge Gongdao secretly rubbing three fingers, and then pointed at the concierge. Oh, I understand, I have to tip... Okay, if a good attitude is part of the service, the service is not

It's free, so the logic of tipping is smooth.

"Sir, there are three entrances to the building. When you left, you were greeted at the main entrance, which was always very welcoming." The concierge said in great detail: "The other two entrances and exits are very quiet. There are porters at the underground garage at any time.

, and there are only security guards at the side entrance here. Everyone closes their mouths and only sees the entrance sign. If you need to be particularly quiet, you can use those two passages."

"Fortunately, there are no high-rise buildings in this direction, otherwise it would look stupid." Ge Gongdao complained: "It's only the thirteenth floor, what is he thinking? No one will know if it is surrounded on three sides. Isn't one side still open? Alas.

, it’s not close to the sea or a lake, and you can’t fish even if you use it as a platform, so what are you thinking about?”

It is said that the question mark used to be "Have you eaten?" It feels so terrible. Were you unable to eat at that time? Zhuang Xuteng thought about it carefully, and it seems that nothing has changed. If you owe rent, you will not only lose your residence, but also lose your social identity in Peicheng.

The next step is to lose the solid

Having a regular job quickly transforms you into a homeless person on the street. Once you start wandering, it is difficult to get back to your previous state. Being bankrupt means not only that you have no money, but also that you are useless as a person and can no longer make a living in modern society.

Hmm? It feels like there has been no progress since ancient times...

"Okay, then you go use your brain and make a list first. I want to complete the preparations for check-in as soon as possible." Zhuang Xuteng waited for the concierge to leave and said, "Brother Dao, this place feels good to me, but it is also very empty and a bit unreal.

"

"Only the lower two meters have heating function. The two meters to the roof are enough to rely on waste heat." The concierge said: "The specific functions of the room are written in the introduction booklet. The original decoration here was also done by the engineering department of the building, so

The records are relatively detailed. If the former guest made modifications himself, we wouldn’t know.”

"Haha, when you see the property fees and other bills, it will feel real again."

"It's tempered glass, and it can be heated, so you won't feel cold when you get close to it in winter. This is the heated glass used in some cars," the concierge said.

"As long as it works first, I'll wait until I figure out how to modify more things. If you have any equipment in the rental apartment above, just give me a set here." Zhuang Xuteng walked into the living room from the study and suddenly stopped.

, came back again. He stared at the wall and said, "The thickness is wrong..."

Zhuang Xuteng looked at the balcony and bathroom, and saw that there were four rooms that could be used as bedrooms or study rooms, so he made up his mind. "Okay, I won't bother looking around anymore, just here. Your apartment management office can give it to me

Are you looking for daily necessities? Bedsheets, quilt covers, bath towels, pots and pans, etc. Do you have this service?"

"Pull up a list to see what is worth replacing in the house, and I will give you separate consultation and service fees." Zhuang Xuteng said to the concierge: "Since you are moving in, you must live in peace of mind and comfort.

I will find someone to change the doors and locks, and then arrange these entrances and exits. What procedures are required and which departments should be coordinated? Can you help me do it?"

Zhuang Xuteng shrugged his shoulders. He didn't even know who the previous owner was, let alone what he thought.

Ge Gongdao touched his beard and nodded: "It's very thoughtful. It seems that this kind of demand is very marketable!"

After the concierge explained, Zhuang Xuteng understood that he could take the high-speed elevator to the 14th floor and then go down to the first floor, which is often faster. Thinking of this, Zhuang Xuteng was a little worried and asked: "I am on the 13th floor, and there is a platform above my head.

Will someone go up and enter my house from the balcony?"

The concierge smiled and said: "If you need to attract people up and don't want to make any noise, just call the security guard at the side door. As for the elevator, considering that some people are older, they dare not adjust the speed very fast. However, there is an exclusive 13th floor

The only solution is to use a direct high-speed elevator that spans steps."

"How did you see it?" Ge Gongdao walked over curiously, leaned on the glass and observed carefully. "It's true, it's really transparent. I also saw some very thin wires, are they tempered wires?

"

Zhuang Xuteng squatted down, looked at the street scene of Peicheng outside the building, and said: "I don't have the ability to use money to make money. If I want to live here, I have to work hard. Brother Dao, I'm thinking about what Sister Lucy will do."

What kind of entrustment is there to train me so that I can become a mercenary worthy of such a residence as soon as possible?"

This large viewing room is both a living room, a dining room, and a bedroom. A large mattress is stuck in the frame and placed between the fireplace and the window. When Ge Gongdao saw it, he laughed and said, isn't this to show the outside world how to sleep?

?Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and pointed out that all the glass here is single-transparent, which means that you can see outside but will not be seen by outsiders.

The concierge's explanation did not reassure Zhuang Xuteng. He would definitely find an opportunity to go up and have a look and personally understand all the surrounding situations. At this time, he already had the idea of ​​​​living here, and after seeing the inside of the room, this idea became even more determined.

"Such a big piece of heated glass? That's too expensive."

Zhuang Xuteng took a look, and after opening the cupboard, there was indeed an elevator that could lead to the upper floor. The elevator was relatively narrow and could only accommodate two people at a time, so Ge ​​Gongdao had to go up in the second group.

"Guest, your observation skills are really good. Originally, I shouldn't have said this, but you should have discovered it yourself in the service details." The concierge said: "The upstairs is the rooftop, and as a top-floor guest, there will always be some...

It’s a privilege, especially if it’s been renovated at a huge cost. If you go around to the opposite side, there’s a passage up between the kitchen and bathroom. I remember it was made into a cupboard-shaped door.”

"You are joking. The balcony is sealed with tempered glass, and he can't open it even if he hits it with his head..." the concierge said with a smile: "We have anti-theft and anti-intrusion settings on the roof platform that can detect abnormal heat.

and take action, and then sound the alarm. Oh, the helicopter landing platform is on the 27th floor and will not affect you. The 13th floor has arrived."

"I prefer to be quiet, not to be disturbed when I go in and out, and not to shout hello every time." Zhuang Xuteng made this request considering the secrecy of the mercenary profession. "In addition, this elevator is a bit slow..."

"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Ge Gongdao nudged Zhuang Xuteng with his elbow and said, "I have been too busy recently and my brain is not full, right? Have you forgotten something?"

"We will serve you wholeheartedly and guarantee your satisfaction."

After paying the money, the concierge's attitude became better. In the elevator, he took the initiative to ask them what their requirements were for living here.

The larger the area of ​​the house, the better it looks. This feeling is quite straightforward and simple. The former owner of the house obviously understood this. He opened up the walls and renovated the two houses uniformly, creating a nearly

A connected comprehensive living room of 200 square meters.

270-degree lighting, reinforced glass windows connected to the roof and the floor below, protruding one without blocking the line of sight. Fortunately, the 13th floor is not too high, and all the windows are tilted to block the close scenery and magnify the distant scenery.

, which reduces the "cliff edge" feeling and enhances the panoramic view of the city.

"We do, but we only have things that are provided in rental apartments. They can guarantee comfort and cleanliness, but they cannot compare with the best things on the market, let alone customized products."

"Don't worry, I'm here." Ge Gongdao also squatted down, patted Zhuang Xuteng on the shoulder, and said: "Let's work together to stand firm on this step, and then continue to climb up! Even if something goes wrong, we will still

There is a warehouse where you can live. It’s only the 13th floor, not the 130th floor!”

"One hundred and thirty floors? Do you mean Dingxin Tower?"

"I just casually increased it to ten times, without specifying it. But you reminded me, what would it be like to live on the top floor of the 130th floor of Dingxin Tower?"

"I only know that we are above the clouds." Zhuang Xuteng said, "I probably can't see the little people on the ground, including us on the thirteenth floor."
