Chapter 65 Shang-Chi’s rent and Peter’s Lego
·
Nan Shan Dou Xi
Although Ferdinand didn't understand the market, he still bought the house where Shang Qi lived.
Shang Qi, who had returned from washing dishes at the Continental Hotel, was preparing to discuss next month's rent with his landlord.
Instead, he saw a young man in his own home.
"Who are you?" Shang Qi became alert.
He suspected that the man in front of him was sent by his father.
I have to say, this kid's intuition is very accurate.
John took out the property certificate and said with a smile, "Your new landlord."
Shang Qi was dumbfounded, "Am I still renting a house?"
According to the law, you cannot sell the property as long as you are still the tenant.
But John said: "I am willing to continue renting a house for you. This is just a casual investment for me, not for living."
He looked inside Shang Qi's house and said, "This place is nice."
Shang Qi faced his new landlord. After this period of working, he also understood some ways of the world and looked at John anxiously.
"I'm willing to add money." He is used to living here and is unwilling to move out. "I have recently applied for a scholarship."
"Oh?" John glanced at Shang Qi. This guy could get a scholarship while practicing martial arts.
"I'm sorry to tell you that even if I don't evict you, with your current income, you will need to change places in two months because you can't pay the rent."
John gave him advice: "But it just so happened that a friend of mine and her child were nearby."
"The fact that you can apply for a bursary means that you study well," John smiled. "If you are willing to teach that child in your spare time, I am willing to halve your rent."
"Really?" Shang Qi looked surprised.
The rent was already too much for him and he needed to go to the hotel to wash dishes, but he was used to this environment and didn't want to change.
Suddenly a pie fell down and he immediately picked it up and put it in his mouth.
Approaching his mouth, he reacted and said hesitantly, "Just teaching?"
"If you don't want to," John shrugged, "I can continue to charge you the original price."
"No," Shang Qi was a little anxious, "I mean, wouldn't this be a big loss for you?"
The pie falling from the sky either fell accidentally or was thrown down deliberately by adding other things.
Shang Qi's vigilance is normal, he is the young leader of the Ten Rings Gang.
John smiled when he heard this, "Don't you read financial magazines?"
"I..." Shang Qi hesitated.
John sighed, "It seems I can only reintroduce myself."
He smiled and touched his heart with the fingertips of his right hand, "John Wick, I just acquired Hammer Industries not long ago. If you don't even know Hammer Industries, I suggest you better understand the companies in New York."
Shang Qi opened his mouth wide, not knowing how serious he was.
John continued, "I tell you this not to tell you how rich I am, but to tell you that it is not unusual for me to suddenly buy an apartment for investment."
"In the same way, your meager rent is just a dinner for me."
Although there are many words, it can be translated into one sentence.
I’m overthinking it, uncle, I won’t eat pie because I eat lobster.
John Hao's inhumane speech made Shang Qi lose the ability to speak, and could only open his mouth wide in shock.
"The choice I gave you, you can tell me the answer now." John took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and said, "Do you need me to give you 3 minutes?"
"No, no need." Shang Qi closed his mouth and said urgently, "Thank you for helping me solve my urgent need."
"You're welcome." John closed his pocket watch and said casually, "Just pay the rent on time every month."
"You can go out with me now."
"Why?" Shang Qi became alert again.
John was speechless: "Do you know where my friend's house is?"
"Oh." Shang Qi was embarrassed and wanted to crawl into the cracks in the ground, so he hurriedly followed.
Mei's home is not very far from Shangqi's apartment, even just one street apart.
When John knocked on May's door, May walked out wearing a casual yellow tank top.
She was a little drowsy. When she could see clearly who was outside, she rubbed her eyes hard.
"John?" She smiled in surprise, "Why are you here?"
"No, I mean, you uh..." Thinking of her cool outfit, she hurriedly said sorry, walked in and changed her shorts into long pants.
"come in."
She invited John in and then noticed that there was another boy, "Who is he?"
"Oh, by the way." John looked at Shang Qi and asked, "What is your name?"
"Sean, Mr. Wick." Shang Qi said it without any doubt.
John pointed at Shang Qi and said, "This is the tenant of my house, just on the other street."
"Hello, Sean." Mei greeted Shangqi with a smile.
It has to be said that the mature elder sister is still very lethal to the innocent boy. Shang Qi's eyes dodge and he doesn't dare to look at the part on the halter top.
"Where's Peter?" John glanced at Mei's home, which was larger than Shang-Chi's and had a more cozy layout.
"He was out with friends, as he mentioned last time, Ned."
When May said this, John remembered.
He patted Shang Qi on the shoulder and pushed it out, "Shaun has good academic performance. He goes to Zhongcheng High School and promised to give Peter some tutoring lessons."
John said casually: "Even if it's not needed, you can give Peter an extra playmate."
Shang Qi's body was stiff, and he sounded like the boy he used to study with.
It feels weird.
Mei said in surprise: "Midtown High School? Peter likes that school too."
Shangqi was on pins and needles, but Mei was really a little more enthusiastic.
"Mei, we're back!"
Peter is back with the work he and his good friends put together.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw John. He was surprised and said: "Mr. Wick!"
Next to him was a little fat man with a middle-parted hairstyle. He stood frozen when he saw John.
"Come on Ned, this is Mr. Wick."
Peter greeted warmly.
Ned gasped, "John Wick, I saw you in Vanity Fair!"
He was excited.
John smiled and waved, and Ned came over holding the assembled Lego works.
John patted him on the shoulder and said maliciously: "I have nothing to give you, so I will give you a life motto."
Peter and Ned looked expectant.
John stretched out his hand and poked Ned's soft flesh, making Ned couldn't help but smile and curl his hand.
The Lego pieces he put together fell to the ground and scattered everywhere.
The results of an afternoon's hard work were just gone.
The two people stood there blankly, and John said meaningfully: "Don't trust anyone casually. Now you can build a bigger work with your new friends."
"Sean, say hello to your friends and go to the room to build Lego together."
Shang Qi was stunned.
Mei covered her face, this guy is so childish and evil.
After that, the three teenagers spent another night putting the work back together.
This time, Ned learned the lesson and never brought it back outside again.
Working together at the same time allowed the three people to quickly establish a friendship.
That is, they have a common devil, John Wick.
