Chapter 11: Urban Shenhao System (11)
Xie Yang felt infinite emotion in her heart: no wonder she completed the Side Quest of slapping the faces of 1,000 people in such a short time.
These enthusiastic property owners and tenants were not only discussing it heatedly in their groups, but also spontaneously forwarding it to other groups—family groups, colleague groups, classmate groups, alumni groups... in short, they forwarded it to every group they were in, expressing that one person being shocked was not as good as everyone being shocked.
The most shocked were those college students sharing Room 501; they returned from their part-time jobs to find the world had changed—the daughter next door who had been a burden to her mother had transformed into the sole property owner of Wanhua Residential Quarter, which made them so envious and jealous that they doubted their lives. After doubting, they forwarded it to various classmate and alumni groups.
In this way, the news that she had bought all the houses in Wanhua Residential Quarter, became the sole property owner of Wanhua Residential Quarter, and that the entire Wanhua Residential Quarter was now hers, swept through the entire residential quarter, community, and University Town like a tornado... it was even pushed to the local trending topics list, and had a trend of reaching the national trending searches.
I don't know who posted a photo, which was exactly the Building 6 Room 502 where her family used to rent, and in less than half a day, it had actually become a check-in spot for residents of the residential quarter.
【I'm here to take a group photo too, maybe the next rich woman with the strength to buy five hundred houses and wait to collect rent and lie flat will be me!】
【Is this apartment for rent? I want to rent it!】
【Don't even think about it! This apartment has already been rented by Jidi Real Estate Agency to use as an office!】
Xie Yang: "..."
【Host, isn't it amazing? You made 1,000 people feel like their faces were slapped so quickly!】
Xie Yang was amused and teased the Shenhao System: "Then are you going to give me some rewards? For example, give me a car for getting around. I really like the luxury mansion Xiao Hao rewarded me with, but the transportation is a little inconvenient. It would be even more perfect if I had a car for getting around! Of course, if it's difficult for Xiao Hao, then forget it. Xiao Hao is so cute, I don't want to see Xiao Hao in a difficult position, otherwise, I will feel heartache."
Main System: 【...】
It's here!
She's here!
She's here again with her familiar pua rhythm!
The Shenhao System was indeed dizzy from being pua'd by the Host: 【It's not difficult! There is a Task that just happens to be related to a car, I will issue it to the Host in advance.】
【Ding! Shenhao System at your service! Now issuing Task: Building a harmonious society cannot be separated from friendly neighbors. Please visit at least three neighbors within 12 hours and perform more than three friendly greetings. Completing the Task rewards a luxury car worth tens of millions.】
Xie Yang really couldn't help but laugh out loud this time.
"Xiao Hao, you are so amazing and capable! You were actually able to bring up a later Task and issue it! This has solved my urgent need! I will definitely cooperate well with Xiao Hao to complete the Task and let Xiao Hao become the brightest new star in the System Realm!"
The Shenhao System was so praised that it almost couldn't find north: 【The Host is also very amazing! We are equally capable! Roar roar!】
Main System: 【...】
Tired!
Let it be destroyed!
At the Hot Pot restaurant at three in the afternoon, after sending off the last table of customers, the shop ushered in a short rest.
"Sister Ling! Sister Ling! I remember you also live in Wanhua Residential Quarter, is what this news says true?"
The young waiter Xiaomei, who was responsible for running the floor, excitedly took her phone and went to ask Xie Shuling.
"I think it's fake news!" Zhao Fang, the store manager's niece who was in charge of the cash register, sat in the cashier's booth cracking melon seeds and said firmly, "I've never heard of any rich person spending five or six hundred million to buy an old, broken, and small residential quarter, and I haven't heard that it's going to be demolished. With so much money, wouldn't it be better to buy a few 180-degree sea-view large flats or scarce resource manor villas and wait for them to appreciate?"
"Maybe they are just foolish and have too much money! There is nothing strange in this world. I believe this is a true story! Otherwise, it wouldn't be on the trending searches!" The vegetable cutter Xiao Feng had nothing to do at the moment, so he poured a glass of water, pulled up a chair, and sat down to rest.
Just now, the shop was bustling with noise and excitement, and everyone was busy working, so they had no time to scroll through their phones.
Now that they were finally free, they saw this news that happened right in Nancheng on the national trending searches; how could they not excitedly chat about it for a while?
Xie Shuling finished her own work, pounded her sore waist and back, took her water cup from the employee locker, drank a few sips of water, and looked up at the phone Xiaomei had handed to her.
At this look, the corner of her eye twitched.
Her daughter was on the news!
The apartment they used to live in had actually become a check-in spot for the residential quarter!
Many reporters flocked to Wanhua Residential Quarter to interview, causing a traffic jam in that area!
"Sister Ling, this is the residential quarter you live in, right? Did you hear about it when you left this morning? Ah right! You were late today! No wonder you were late! It must be because you were affected by this news and were almost unable to leave the residential quarter, right? It seems what the news says is true!"
Xiaomei's eyes shone with gold, and she wished she could get off work right now.
"Sister Ling, Sister Ling, I'll go with you after work! I want to go to your residential quarter to check in and rub off some good fortune! By the way, Sister Ling, is your house far from Building 6 Room 502? I'm so envious that you live in Wanhua Residential Quarter!"
"..."
Xie Shuling didn't know what to say.
She couldn't tell the truth and say, "My daughter is the rich woman you are all talking about," right?
Not to mention that everyone wouldn't believe it, even she herself still felt like everything that happened this morning was like a dream.
"I'm sorry, Xiaomei, I don't live in Wanhua Residential Quarter anymore."
"Ah? Sister Ling, you moved? When did you move? What a pity! If you lived in Wanhua Residential Quarter, you could have rubbed off some good fortune nearby."
"..."
"Pfft!" Zhao Fang sneered, "Do you think that poor people can get rich just by rubbing off the good fortune of the rich? Naive!"
Xiaomei retorted angrily: "Can't I just talk about it! What does it have to do with you!"
"Sure, you keep talking!" Zhao Fang gloated, "Sister Ling can't even take care of herself, it's time to move to another place. The rent of Wanhua Residential Quarter could pay for two more months if you lived in the suburbs."
"What do you mean?" Xiaomei looked at Xie Shuling blankly, "Sister Ling is doing her job well, why can't she take care of herself?"
"It doesn't mean anything! Sister Ling isn't like us who come every day; she only comes on weekends. As a result, she only came for one day last weekend, and this weekend she asked for leave for one day and was late for one day. My aunt said, since there are so many things at home, why bother working? Just go back and deal with your family affairs. If you don't want to work, there are plenty of Temporary Workers willing to come and earn some extra money."
Xie Shuling explained patiently: "There really have been some things at home during this period, it won't happen again in the future."
"Xie Shuling." At this moment, the store manager walked in with a middle-aged woman, "Someone has taken over your job, you don't need to come anymore in the future. If you want to finish your work today, you can finish it; if you don't want to, you can leave now. You haven't come many times this month in total, and the wages for the days you came will be discounted for you. It's not that I'm deliberately deducting your money; you asked for leave yesterday and were late today, almost implicating our shop in getting a bad review from a customer, and I haven't even settled accounts with you yet."
"Store Manager!" Xie Shuling sighed in her heart; if she wasn't going to work, then she wouldn't. She would go back and look for work near the villa residential quarter, but—"I worked honestly for the two weekends in the first ten days of the month, so a discount is unreasonable, right?"
"How is it unreasonable? You caused me to find someone to replace you temporarily, which increased my workload. Shouldn't I deduct your money?"
"I am a Temporary Worker. It was agreed at the beginning that one day's work counts as one day's pay, it's just that the money is paid together with other employees at the end of the month..."
The store manager was impatient to continue listening, waved his hand and said: "It's useless no matter how much you say. The finance department has already settled it. Here, what's in this envelope is it, take the money and get out! I'm not afraid even if you report me to the Labor Bureau. The agreed-upon salary is calculated based on full attendance days. You didn't finish the work, so of course, it has to be discounted."
In the end, Xie Shuling only received half of her original salary, and that was after directly cutting it in half based on the salary after deducting the hours she didn't come due to leave.
Holding the meager salary in her hand, Xie Shuling felt powerless and lost.
"Wow, wow, wow! Are my eyes deceiving me? Is that a Maybach over there?"
An exclamation of surprise from Xiao Feng came from the doorway.
