He really didn't want to get up, but Aunt Chen's knock on the door directly woke him and Lu Xiaorong from their sleep.
Taking a look at his newly bought Seagull watch, Shen Lin found that the time was only half past six, and he felt a little depressed.
Lu Xiaorong was lying on his arm, looking at Shen Lin with wide eyes. When Shen Lin looked at her, Lu Xiaorong felt his face turn red.
This guy insisted on wearing the pajamas he bought. These pajamas were comfortable, but Lu Xiaorong didn't think they were serious pajamas.
"Go and see who's coming. I'll change my clothes." As he spoke, Lu Xiaorong pulled the thin quilt covering himself.
Although Shen Lin wanted to be affectionate with Lu Xiaorong again, the knocks on the outer door kept coming, forcing him to put on his clothes and open the door.
"Aunt Chen, what's the matter with you this early in the morning?" Seeing that it was the landlord knocking on the door, Shen Lin felt uncomfortable, but he could only endure it.
After all, he can't afford to offend his landlord now.
Besides, Aunt Chen was very good to him and Lu Xiaorong, and she was a good elder, so Shen Lin maintained due respect for Aunt Chen.
Aunt Chen looked at Shen Lin, who looked sleepy, and knew that she had disturbed others' rest, but as an older person, she didn't feel any guilt.
"Shen Lin, there are many people waiting for you downstairs. I asked them to come up, but they all refused and said it was inconvenient, so I had to wake you up."
Aunt Chen's words stunned Shen Lin. He looked out through the corridor window and saw twenty or thirty people standing at the entrance of the corridor, and all of them were familiar faces.
These guys actually found a home.
"Okay Aunt, let me ask what's going on." Although Shen Lin was disturbed from his dream, he still thanked Aunt Chen very politely.
After all, this matter has nothing to do with the landlord. If someone can enthusiastically inform me, this feeling must be remembered.
"Shen Lin, you're welcome. We're not outsiders." After Aunt Chen said this, she glanced outside and said, "I'm going out now. Can you ask those people to come up? I'll give you a message." .”
Shen Lin was unwilling to go downstairs at this time. After hearing what Aunt Chen said, he said rudely: "Then please tell them, if anyone wants to come up, just come up. My door is open, you're welcome." "
Aunt Chen agreed and walked downstairs. Although she didn't know what these people were looking for for Shen Lin, from their looks, Aunt Chen felt that these people came to ask Shen Lin for help.
Otherwise, their expressions would not be so cautious.
After seeing Aunt Chen off, Shen Lin returned to the room. At this time, Lu Xiaorong had already changed his clothes. Seeing Shen Lin walking over, she asked with concern: "Shen Lin, what does Aunt Chen want from us?"
"Those regretful people came to our house!" Shen Lin pointed out the window.
Lu Xiaorong looked out through the window and saw a dense crowd of people. She hesitated and said, "Shen Lin, people have already found our house. What do you mean..."
Shen Lin understood what Lu Xiaorong meant. He pondered for a moment and said: "Xiaorong, you just saw their pitiful side, but do you know how they will treat you if I don't come back?"
"I'm not angry that they came to ask for money, but before I was sure I wouldn't come back, they eagerly replaced the rent receipt with your IOU."
"This kind of behavior is abominable. It will encourage a bad atmosphere, and people will bully people for good!"
Looking at Shen Lin who was fuming, Lu Xiaorong gently hugged his arm. Although Lu Xiaorong felt that these people were a little pitiful, listening to Shen Lin's words filled her heart with warmth.
After all, the husband did this because he felt sorry for himself and was wronged!
"Husband, just let them pay some price." Lu Xiaorong said softly.
Shen Lin gently stroked Lu Xiaorong's hair and said, "Okay, since you said so, wife, I will give them a chance."
Just as the two people were talking, there was a gentle knock on the door. Shen Lin said please come in. The door was slowly pushed open, and Sister Luo walked in.
As the first merchant to rent money to him, Shen Lin had a very good impression of Sister Luo.
Facing Sister Luo, Shen Lin did not say anything bad, but smiled and said: "Sister Luo is here, please sit down."
Sister Luo was a little embarrassed when facing Shen Lin. Although she had countless explanations for her behavior, one thing she knew very well was that it was a bit excessive for them to force Lu Xiaorong to write down the IOU.
After all, Shen Lin said he would solve the problem in three days, but the time had not passed yet, and they did something like this just because of a rumor.
If he were Shen Lin, maybe he would be even more angry than Shen Lin.
Sister Luo nodded towards Lu Xiaorong who was standing aside, and then said guiltily: "Boss Shen, I know we did not handle this matter correctly."
"This time, in addition to apologizing to Boss Shen and Xiao Rong, I also want to talk about the rental shop."
Shen Lin didn't say anything, but Lu Xiaorong, who was standing aside, looked at Sister Luo who was a little embarrassed and quickly helped Sister Luo pour a glass of water.
"Boss Shen, what I did this time was irrational, which caused a lot of trouble to you and Miss Xiaorong."
Sister Luo held the water glass but did not drink it. She said embarrassedly: "No matter how good the reason is, it can only be regarded as an excuse. I won't say any of these."
"I hope to continue renting Boss Shen's shop. Of course, the rent price cannot be the previous two thousand."
When Sister Luo said this, she laughed at herself: "If we want to take back the things we gave up, we will always have to pay a price, don't you think so?"
Shen Lin kept smiling and saying nothing.
"Boss Shen, I hope that I can continue to rent Shop No. 2. The rent will be increased by 500 yuan on top of the 2,000 yuan."
After Sister Luo stated her conditions, she looked at Shen Lin nervously. She knew that she was now the weaker party.
If Shen Lin didn't agree, then besides adding more money, she would have no choice but to move out of Paris Street.
She doesn't want to give up Paris Street, but if the rent continues to increase, it will be too much and she can't afford it.
Shen Lin did not answer immediately. When Sister Luo's heart began to sink, Shen Lin finally spoke: "Sister Luo, if I take these shops back and rent them out for two thousand and five thousand, do you think I can rent them out? "
Sister Luo said without hesitation at this moment: "Yes."
"In that case, why do you think I still rent it to you?" Shen Lin's voice was calm, but there was something unquestionable about it.
And these words made Sister Luo's heart suddenly hit rock bottom again.
