Chapter 86 is a talented person
Taking a sip of cola through the straw, Lin Yuanshan smiled. Without using some tricks, how could he have encountered such a special room type?
"Alright! Lead the way then." Patting his trouser leg, Lin Yuanshan grabbed a Coke bottle and walked out of the convenience store.
Seeing this, Tie Tou followed, and Xiao Jie waited until Lin Yuanshan loosened his grip, then quickly ran ahead to lead the way.
The three walked for seven or eight minutes to reach the area near Cheung Sha Wan Road on Yuen Chau Street.
This place is already quite close to Sham Shui Po Pier. Although it lacks some of the prosperity of the intersection of four streets, it offers a tranquility away from the hustle and bustle.
Xiao Jie wasn't lying; this large slab room on the third floor was excellent in terms of lighting and walls.
Lin Yuanshan valued the separate bathroom the most. It wasn't big, but it was enough, and it was tiled, so he guessed that the previous tenant was someone who liked to enjoy life.
It's remarkable that someone could squeeze out an hour from their busy schedule to look for a place to live.
This was already quite an achievement for Lin Yuanshan. Seeing a satisfactory one, he immediately made the decision: "Okay, this one will do."
"Okay, okay, I'm glad you're satisfied, boss." Xiao Jie was overjoyed. He was prepared for Lin Yuanshan to try to bargain, but he never expected the other party to be so straightforward.
Actually, he had no idea.
Lin Yuanshan was only able to spend time on this insignificant person out of necessity.
When Ah Yuan first came to Hong Kong, he was able to start his business from scratch by relying on his thick skin.
Now it's all Mr. Lin's business. He even refused to accept the tenement building that Qiang had sent through Biandanwei, let alone bother Qiaoru!
You said, should we follow the normal procedure and pay Qiaoru a referral fee?
They're in the business of favors. Even if Lin Yuanshan is willing to give, it depends on whether Qiaoru is willing to accept it now.
You should know that behind Sister Ru, besides the scoundrel Biao, there is also Chen Yanni.
Lin Yuanshan was very grateful to Sister Ru, but he was also wary of the two people behind her.
When Xiao Jie notified the homeowner to come and collect the money and hand over the keys, Lin Yuanshan sighed inwardly.
Ultimately, it comes down to a lack of manpower.
The advisor, Ming, needs to help Biandanwei fill in the gaps and cannot be separated from his duties at the moment.
If we had someone like Siyanwen, we wouldn't have to do even these trivial things ourselves.
At this moment, Xiao Jie finished filling out the contract with the homeowner and saw Lin Yuanshan standing by the window. He gently reminded him, "Mr. Lin, would you please come over and sign your name?"
"Just let Brother Tietou sign it." Lin Yuanshan waved his hand, quite annoyed that he had been interrupted halfway through his thought.
Tie Tou went over as instructed, signed the document, paid the money, and the landlord left with the words "May your house be peaceful and prosperous" before taking the money and the lease with him.
Xiao Jie received a total of 85 yuan in commissions from both sides for this order, and he was so happy that his eyes were practically popping out of his head.
After counting the money and putting it in his wallet, he took two steps closer to Lin Yuanshan, but the next second, Tie Tou blocked his way with a fierce face: "Hey, what else do you want to do?"
"Brother Lu, I'd like to ask Mr. Lin."
"Do you need me to introduce a group of craftsmen to help you with the partitions?" Xiao Jie rubbed his palms together, bowing and scraping, his face full of flattery: "Or, if you need to buy furniture, I have both new and used pieces."
Tie Tou grew increasingly impatient as he listened, already knowing that these agents were like sticky leeches.
But Xiao Jie's group followed them for almost two hours.
The deal has already been completed and the commission has been paid, yet they still insist on nagging, which is really annoying.
"No need, no need! We know people in the underworld who work in the underworld." Tie Tou grabbed Xiao Jie's left shoulder, ignoring the other's struggles, turned him around, and pushed him out of the house: "We don't need you here anymore, you can leave."
"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, Mr. Lin hasn't said anything, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Go away, go away! If you keep making noise, don't blame me for hitting you!"
He raised his hand, scaring Xiao Jie so much that he ran downstairs, while Tie Tou came back cursing.
Lin Yuanshan tested the toilet and turned on the water: "He just wants to seize the opportunity to make a few more business deals with me. It's not worth arguing with him."
Just as Tie Tou was about to reply, there was a knock on the door.
When Tie Tou went to open the door, he saw Xiao Jie, who had just been chased away, standing at the door with a broom, mop, rag, and bucket in his hand, grinning.
Seeing that Tie Tou's face quickly turned dark, he hurriedly said, "Brother Lu, I haven't made a sale for three months. Today, I am grateful for Mr. Lin's help."
I don't have much to repay you with, but if you don't mind, how about letting me clean up a bit?
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuanshan couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Brother Tietou, let him in."
Turning his head and responding, Tie Tou leaned down and whispered in Xiao Jie's ear, "You better watch yourself, if you dare cause trouble, don't blame me for squashing your head!"
Iron Head's tone wasn't loud, but his voice was incredibly menacing.
The hairs on the back of Xiao Jie's neck stood up one by one.
He swallowed hard, suddenly regretting his greed and coming back to knock on that door.
At this moment, he wanted to leave, but he couldn't.
Lin Yuanshan had also become interested in this street-smart kid: "Hey, didn't you say you'd include cleaning? Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and come in!"
Suddenly caught in a dilemma, Xiao Jie secretly groaned, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and carry his tools inside.
Then, Lin Yuanshan continued to stand by the window and smoke.
Tie Tou stood aside, his eyes warily watching Xiao Jie, who had taken off his suit jacket, rolled up his shirt sleeves, and started working hard.
Lin Yuanshan, who had taken an interest in him, was also observing him in secret. He found that the kid had good courage and mentality, even under the silent pressure from Tie Tou.
The other person's hands and feet were trembling when he first started sweeping, but he quickly calmed down and worked very seriously. Although he was a man, he was just as good as a woman when it came to cleaning. In less than half an hour, he had cleaned the room and even washed the bathroom.
Quick-witted, eloquent, thick-skinned, and bold.
Yes, he's a real talent!
Lin Yuanshan narrowed his eyes and saw Xiao Jie panting as he packed up his things to leave. He suddenly said, "Hey, you've been busy all this time and there's no water left. Come on, have a smoke."
"Oh, thank you, Mr. Lin." Xiao Jie put down his tools, put on his suit jacket, and walked over.
After he took the cigarette and lit it, Lin Yuanshan slowly asked, "With so many connections, what organization are you backed by?"
"Hey, I'm not good at fighting or killing, so which gang would want me?"
However, to avoid being bullied when I go out, I've hung up blue lanterns in several gangs. "Xiao Jie took a puff of his cigarette and said with a wry smile, "Someone like me can't afford to offend any big shot, so I have to befriend all the bigwigs."
Tie Tou asked doubtfully, "That's not right. Although I don't particularly like you, you're quite clever. You'd be perfectly capable of being a dockworker!"
"A clerk? Brother Lu, that kind of easy job... it'll be at least 3-5 years before it's my turn." Xiao Jie looked at Tie Tou speechlessly. "Besides, without an introduction, how easy is it to get into a gang as a clerk?"
