Chapter 98: The Haunted House! (33rd update seeking flowers)

  Haunted house! (33 more seeking flowers)

  As expected, the young intermediary sneered as soon as he heard this. "Look at us, our entire society's kindness is used to support you, can't you spare this meager 300,000?"

  "What does it mean?" Wu Zhengxie was confused by the young interpreter's words.

  "What do you mean, don't you understand?" The young intermediary burst out laughing and stood up to pat Wu Zhengxie's shoulder, saying, "Brother, judging from your appearance, you shouldn't be the founder of this public welfare charity organization, right?"

  Wu Zhengyi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly, "I shouldn't count."

  Upon hearing this, the young intermediary laughed even more happily, "If I'm not mistaken, the founder of your charity organization should be a woman?"

  "Huh? How did you know?"

  "That's it, another one imitating 'Ge sister', we provide you with a platform to make money, don't you know how to repay kindness?"

  "What the hell does that mean? Who the f**k is 'Ge sister'? I don't know her!" Wu Zhengxie was somewhat annoyed by the young agent's inexplicable words, although he didn't understand the deep meaning hidden in his words. However, being clever as he was, he could vaguely hear that this guy definitely wasn't saying anything good.

  At this time, Wu Zhengxie's mobile phone rang.

  It was an unfamiliar phone number, so Wu Zheng immediately pressed the answer button.

  "Everything is fine, I'm doing well on my end, but the documents will take a few more days to arrive. By the way, have you found the storefront? I saw one here that's very cheap and has a large area, plus the foot traffic is pretty good, do you want to come over and take a look first?"

  A stern voice came from the phone.

  Upon hearing this, Wu Zhengyi let out a huge sigh of relief. "Alright, tell me the address and I'll be right over."

  "The address is 144 Bei Bin Road, you can take a taxi here, we are on the way now and will arrive soon."

  "Beihuan Road 144, I'm on my way." Wu Zhengxie hung up the phone and turned to glare at the young agent, saying with a smirk, "You can't afford it, this broken door city is too expensive for you, go rent somewhere else."

  Out of the agency, Wu Zhengye still couldn't help but mutter, "What the hell does that mean? Who is Ge sister? Is she very famous?"

  He didn't know that after he left the real estate agency, the young agent was also sneering and muttering to himself, "No. 144 Beifeng Road? Cheap price? Yeah, that place is indeed cheap, good location, big area... unfortunately, it's not a place for humans to live..."

  He hailed a taxi and after reporting his destination, Wu Zhengye continued to mutter to himself in a low voice, "That agent's words seemed to have deep meaning, what did he want to say? Who is that Ge sister anyway? Dammit, does he have a mental illness?"

  Upon hearing his muttering, the driver in the front cab couldn't help but glance at him through the rearview mirror. With one glance, the driver immediately burst out laughing, "Brother, you don't know who Ge sister is?"

  "Is she famous?" Wu Zheng raised an eyebrow, looking at the taxi driver in confusion.

  "Hehe, maybe she wasn't that famous before, but now, her reputation is even higher than those high-ranking officials in the imperial court. You say she's not famous?"

  "What the... what does this have to do with me?" Wu Zhengye was somewhat puzzled, "Just a few days ago, I didn't even know the name of the national leader, why do I need to know who Ge sister is?"

  "Haha, well said!" The driver also became enthusiastic and looked at Wu Zhengye with great appreciation through the rearview mirror. "Brother, you're absolutely right! Why should that stinky woman use our donations to support herself? She's still living a luxurious life, going to Macau to gamble, and being the mistress of dozens or even hundreds of high-ranking officials!"

  The funniest thing is that the stinky old woman was taking pictures with those leaders xxoo, and she even found someone to take a commemorative photo. You say, isn't this shameless? Damn it, just one year ago during that big earthquake, I had just started driving a taxi, and after working hard every month, I could only earn around 1,000 yuan, and I still had to support my family of three with that little money.

  But after that big earthquake, I saw the victims on TV news and donated 500 yuan without hesitation! But now, where did my 500 yuan go? It's probably become one ten-millionth of the huge diamond ring on Ge's sister's finger!"

  Upon hearing this, Wu Zhengye finally understood a bit, "So, Ge sister is actually a notorious figure in the charity industry! No wonder the young man at the intermediary company had an attitude when we said we wanted to set up a charity organization. It seems that he must have also made some contributions for that diamond ring."

  Unfortunately, you people have run away with your eyes. Our charity organization is not fake. As Xiaojing said, every penny in our charity organization will be clearly marked with its source and donor, completely transparent to the public, that's the right way to do it."

  "Brother, we've arrived at Beiduan Road 144, it's eight ninety-nine, I'll take eight bucks from you." Just as Wu Zheng was lost in thought, the driver's voice suddenly came through.

  "Ah, arrived?" Wu Zhengxie came back to his senses, handed a 10-yuan bill to the driver, "Thanks."

  "Heh heh, thanks," the driver handed Wu Zhengye two yuan and then glanced at the nearby storefront with a mixture of fear and unease. He reminded Wu Zhengye, who was still within earshot, "Brother, you live around here, right? Be careful not to go out too much at night, this place isn't clean!"

  Wu Zhengyi waved his hand without looking back and strode towards the 144th market.

  "Hmm, this place is indeed not bad!" Looking through the tempered glass at the entire interior of the building from outside, he smiled and nodded while looking around. "This place is not bad, with two floors up and down, it's probably over a thousand square meters! Although it doesn't have the lively atmosphere of the pedestrian street, it's still a good location. On both sides are large residential gardens, and just behind is the exit to the food street. In front, there's also a park and school, so the atmosphere here won't be bad... only..." As he looked around, he suddenly smiled, "Only this place has a bit of an evil spirit, ordinary people wouldn't dare come live here, but Master Ben is an exception!"

  Soon, two young men with name tags on their chests arrived quietly.

  "Is this place okay?" Yan Jing said with some pride, "I've looked at the information, and this storefront has been vacant for a long time. It's divided into two floors, both of which are the same size, totaling 1074 square meters. They were asking for a rent of 50 yuan per square meter per month, which would be over 500,000 yuan per month. But I told them we're using it to set up a charity organization, so they readily lowered it to 50,000 yuan per month."

  "This is a rare find, such a great location, we're really lucky to have met you."

  "Is that a noble person?" Wu Zhengxie didn't confirm or deny, and turned around to wave at the two young agents standing far away, "Come over here, I have some questions for you."

  After hearing this, the two young intermediaries hesitated for a long time and finally pushed each other to come over together. "Brother, this store is really good, after passing through this village, there won't be such a shop!"

  "Yes, it's because we knew you were using it for charity that we considered renting to you first. If you're still hesitating, I'm afraid this storefront will be rented out by tomorrow." The young agent said with a matter-of-fact tone, "Look, the location is great, the space is big, and the price is so cheap. If the owner of this storefront wasn't in such a hurry to go abroad, he definitely wouldn't have rented it out at such a low price."

  "Oh," Wu Zheng said with a hint of a smile, looking at the two of them, "then let's go, we'll go up and take a look together. After that, we can sign the contract."

  The two young agents were both tongue-tied, and after exchanging a glance, they let out a bitter laugh. "Brother, I'm too lazy to introduce this place again. In any case, the conditions are all excellent. Here's the glass key, I've given it to this beauty. If you want to take a look, open the door and go in yourselves. I'm tired of going in and out, it's such a hassle."

  "Is that so?" Wu Zhengxie suddenly sneered, his face also instantly sinking, "Are you treating me like a three-year-old kid? Can people even enter this shop? This damn place is a haunted house!"

  He snorted, Wu Zhengye stretched out a finger and repeatedly pointed at the noses of the two young men with their heads down, "You say what kind of crappy professional ethics you have! It's clearly a well-known haunted house, but you're still trying to deceive a few people who don't know about it. Do you think your kind of intermediary has any humanity left?"

  On the side, Yan Jing's face, which was still flushed with excitement a moment ago, suddenly changed color when she heard Wu Zhengye's words. But immediately after that, her face turned cold, "Hmph, 'Huang Long Real Estate' is it? You see what this is!"

  As she spoke, Yan Jing quickly pulled out her ID and handed it over to the two of them.

  The pupils of the two young men suddenly widened at this moment, "P... police! You... are you a policeman?"

  "Hmph!" Yan Jing continued to hum coldly, "The police are just one of my identities, today, another identity of mine is an ordinary citizen who comes to find the door to open a charity organization!"

  Upon hearing this, both of the two policemen let out a slight sigh of relief, but before they could fully exhale, their breath caught again.

  "This kind of deceitful and cheating behavior is what I dislike the most, so I have the right to report you!" Yan Jing's expression instantly turned cold, "Believe me, if Huang Long Real Estate receives a notice from the court, H City will no longer be a place where you can stay!"
