Xiang Nan then re-read "Young Pi" and borrowed some books to guide children to learn happily.

Although it may not be useful, it can be used as a reference.

During this period, Xiang Nan also moved.

He is considered rich now and no longer wants to live in the attic.

He wanted to live in a spacious house and didn't want to go to bed as soon as he entered the house. He wanted to enjoy the bright sunshine and didn't want it to be gloomy in the house.

With money, moving will go smoothly.

Xiang Nan quickly rented a one-bedroom, one-living room with fine decoration, complete furniture and appliances, all water and electricity connections, and a south-facing apartment with plenty of sunlight and good ventilation.

Although the monthly rent is two thousand yuan, Xiang Nan still thinks it is worth it.

After finding a place to live, he then went to the original landlord to check out and return the deposit.

The deposit was actually not much, only one thousand yuan. For Xiang Nan, it was not a big sum of money.

But he still didn't want to take advantage of the landlord because he was a very unkind landlord.

The landlord lived downstairs from them and often came up to find trouble, scolding them for being too noisy and noisy, which affected his rest, so that they did not dare to walk around freely after returning to the house for fear of offending him.

Moreover, the landlord also guards against them like thieves. When they are away, he often opens the door privately and comes in to check. If there is paint peeling, scratches, or stains, he will deduct money, which can be said to be quite disgusting.

If it weren't for the lack of money, Xiang Nan would no longer want to stay here.

Now that he has money in his pocket, is confident in his heart, and has found a good house, he naturally doesn't want to be angry with him anymore, and he also wants his deposit back.

…

Xiang Nan came downstairs and knocked on the landlord's door.

I heard a TV set inside and the sound of footsteps, but no one opened the door.

Xiang Nan couldn't help but feel a little angry and knocked louder.

After a while, the door opened, and the landlord poked his head out, with a displeased look on his face, "Why are you announcing a funeral?"

"You just announced the funeral, why didn't you open the door when you were home?" Xiang Nan said angrily, he was about to move, and he couldn't afford to be so humble.

"It's not the day to pay the rent, I know what you want from me." The landlord curled his lips.

When Xiang Nan heard this, he felt angry.

The house they live in has problems every now and then, such as the toilet being clogged, the lights not working, the sewer pipes not working...

Although the landlord is diligent in finding problems, when something happens and he is asked to fix it, he shirks it in every possible way, delaying today until tomorrow, and tomorrow until the day after tomorrow...

If the tenant can't wait any longer and hires someone to do the repairs himself, he will save money, which is very smart.

"I want to check out." Xiang Nan didn't bother to talk and said directly.

Hearing that he wanted to check out, the landlord frowned.

It is difficult to find a good landlord these days, and it is also difficult to find a good tenant. It is also difficult to find a tenant like Xiang Nan who is honest, does his duty, pays rent on time, does not default on arrears, and does not cause trouble.

After he left, he didn't know whether he would be able to find such an honest and responsible tenant, so the landlord was very dissatisfied.

"Do you really want to move?" he asked with a sideways glance.

"Of course we have to move." Xiang Nan nodded, "Go and have a look at the house quickly. If there are no problems, just return the deposit to me."

The landlord thought for a moment, then went upstairs with Xiang Nan and went to his room to check it out.

Xiang Nan's luggage has been transported away. After removing his luggage, the whole room looks empty, which can be seen almost at a glance.

But the landlord still searched carefully inside and outside, front and back.

Xiang Nan rubbed his shoulders and let him check.

He has always lived in this house and cherished it. He believed that he had never knocked, touched or damaged it, so he was not afraid of the landlord's inspection.

However, the landlord was so picky that he wiped off the paint on the table, collapsed the springs of the mattress, and stained the whitewash on the wall...

"Look at you, you've ruined my house like a pig's nest, and you still have the nerve to ask me to refund the deposit." The landlord cursed, "After you leave, I have to renovate it again. With your little deposit,

It’s not even enough for my renovation expenses.”

Xiang Nan almost laughed angrily when he saw how shameless he was.

The shortcomings he found out actually existed before Xiang Nan lived there. Now they are all blamed on Xiang Nan.

Furthermore, time is the most powerful corrosive agent. Everything will depreciate. If you rent a house, it is impossible to get it back and it will be the same as before.

Xiang Nan understood, he just didn't want to return the deposit.

"Don't accuse me unfairly. These problems you found existed long before I moved here." He frowned and said, "You are so picky, are you obviously trying to cheat?"

"Fuck you, bastard, what did you say? Do you have the guts to say it again?" Upon hearing this, the landlord immediately picked up the mop and pointed at Xiang Nan and shouted, "I'm so stupid! I have so many apartments, and I'll give you a thousand dollars."

piece?

You said these problems existed before you moved here. Do you have any evidence? If you don’t have any evidence, get out of here. I won’t give you a penny. You can’t go there but you can’t die! I’m afraid of you, a country bumpkin!

"

Xiang Nan nodded, "You bully foreigners, are you acting like a rogue? Okay, I don't want this thousand yuan, so don't regret it."

"Get out of here! I'm still afraid of you!" Seeing Xiang Nan shrinking back, the landlord couldn't help laughing proudly.

Xiang Nan smiled, picked up the box, and turned to leave.

…

In fact, as he was familiar with the landlord's character, he had already expected that the landlord might find an excuse to withhold the deposit, so he made preparations in advance.

Xiang Nan inherited Chen Xiaozheng's architectural design experience, so he knew the weaknesses of this old house very well.

He did some tricks in the sewer pipes, and if the landlord quickly returned the deposit, he was willing to help the landlord remove the trap.

Now, let the landlord ask for his own blessings.

Sure enough, in the evening, the landlord was using the toilet in the bathroom, and at this time, someone was also using the toilet upstairs.

As soon as the water was flushed, water leaked from the top of the landlord's head.

He picked it up with his hand, brought it to his nose and smelled it, and he felt nauseated and wanted to vomit.

He quickly picked up his pants and ran upstairs, "Who was flushing the toilet just now?"

"Hey, what's wrong? You can't even flush the toilet?" the tenant who rented the south bedroom asked in confusion.

"You are so mad that the water dripped on my head." The landlord yelled angrily.

"Then how do I know? I was using it normally and didn't deliberately flush you." The tenant was also dissatisfied, "I can't rent your house and not even let you use the toilet, right?"

The landlord was speechless and had no choice but to retreat.

But since then, the bathroom has been leaking, making the landlord and his wife afraid to go to the bathroom casually for fear of getting wet.

In the end, he had no choice but to hire someone to repair it. However, he hired workers several times to no avail, and the leak still persisted.

In the end, the only option was to dig out the toilet upstairs and re-lay the pipes. Only then did they discover that a doll had been stuffed into the corner of the sewer, blocking most of the pipe mouth.

When flushing, the water flow is too fast and is blocked at the mouth of the pipe. If it cannot be flushed through for a while, it will seep out along the gaps in the pipe joints. Therefore, as soon as the water is flushed from the top, rain starts to leak from the bottom.

Small leakage of urine and large leakage of stool.

"Hey, the person who plugs the sewers is an expert, and he can do it accurately and ruthlessly. Who have you offended, to punish you like this?" the worker asked while laying the sewers.

Only then did the landlord think of Xiang Nanlai and what he said, "Don't regret it!"
