Doomsday Wonderland

"I know I know,"

When Di Mo pushed open a wooden door in front of him, he lowered his voice and waved his hand to Lin Sanjiu: "I promised the landlord to let him hide aside and observe you quietly, but it was indeed not very ethical... But please understand me. , I have a last resort reason for doing this.”

"What's the last resort?" Lin Sanjiu asked quietly, then followed him and walked behind the door.

"He paid me."

When Di Mo said these words, he quickly quickened his pace and walked into the dim light of the bar. Lin Sanjiu raised his eyes and found that the waiter had noticed them. He could only hold back his anger and act as if nothing had happened. He followed Di Mo and sat at the bar.

"Why are you back again?" The waiter was obviously stunned. Taking a closer look, he had a rectangular face and looked to be about thirty or forty years old. His cheeks were stained blue by the stubble, and his skin texture was deeply imprinted on his face, soaked with an air that did not belong to a bartender. A raw sense of wind and frost.

He looks like a pretty decent person.

"Look," Di Mo turned his neck and pointed at the wound on the back of his head. The blood on the wound had dried and turned black and red. "She was found when I went out just now. If she hadn't happened to be still nearby, I might have lost my life today."

"Really," the waiter glanced at Lin Sanjiu and said to Di Mo, "You almost made my prediction come true."

"Yeah, so let's have a drink to calm down. I'm treating you, will you have a drink too?"

He shook his head, gave each of them a glass of golden-red liquid, and slowly walked to the other end of the bar.

"Try it, young woman's kiss." Dimo ​​pushed the wine glass to Lin Sanjiu and took a sip first: "One of the most delicious wines in the Twelve Realms."

The wine is clear and slightly sweet at first, and then reveals a soft and mellow taste like a young woman who has just matured. It is wrapped in many finely crushed ice particles and gently scrapes over the nerves one by one, like the tips of a woman's thin fingernails; but when it slides down the throat, it is so hot that people actually have the illusion that they are getting... A beautiful woman's lips and tongue were entangled in a kiss with a sweet aftertaste.

Lin Sanjiu took a breath and fanned herself with the palm of her hand for a while to cool down her cheeks.

"Doesn't it taste good?" Di Mo observed her expression and chuckled: "It's strange that this wine is more popular among women."

While feeling incredible, Lin Sanjiu felt vaguely understandable. She picked up the cup and took another sip. After the wine completely fell into her stomach, she started to talk about the business: "By the way, about that house——"

"you say."

"To be honest, I'm very interested." She raised her eyes and looked at the waiter, but his back was turned to her, so it was hard to tell whether he really tensed up slightly. “It ticked all the boxes I was looking for.”

"But...?" Di Mo put down his cup, "I know there is a but."

"But the price is too high."

"Well... the price is indeed not low. But if you think about it, for such a nearly perfect house, the price is actually quite reasonable."

"I don't know how perfect it is," Lin Sanjiu began to pick on the shortcomings of the house just like when he was actually bargaining: "After all, the duration of the hologram is very short. Except for a few main areas, there is still a large area. see."

"More than three hundred acres! After seeing it all, we don't need to do anything else. It's getting dark and dawning."

"I know, but the price is still too high. What's more, I'm not satisfied with its appearance," she lied. "It's a ring shape. What kind of design is it? It's too eye-catching and unsafe."

"This kind of house has camouflage barriers..."

Before Di Mo could finish his sentence, he was interrupted because she shook her head. He sighed and asked: "What price do you think is acceptable? I can contact the landlord for you."

Lin Sanjiu stood up as he pondered, holding the empty glass in his hand, and walked towards the waiter step by step as if nothing had happened. After she handed the cup to him, she didn't rush back. Instead, she leaned against the bar and smiled at the agent: "Reduced by 60%."

As soon as this almost unreasonable number came out, Teacher Yi couldn't help but gasp in her mind.

Lin Sanjiu was actually more surprised than anyone else by the number reported under the operation of [scroogemcduckpower]; then she felt annoyed, fearing that the owner of the ring would think she was not sincere and would not sell it at all. There was only a bar thickness between her and the waiter. Logically speaking, McDuck's ability should be enough to influence the other person. It's just that the price was so outrageous that Di Mo's expression changed, and it really made her feel anxious - "Reduced by 60%?"

Di Mo couldn't help but raise his voice, which the two of them had never rehearsed before.

"I'll sell you something for one hundred yuan for forty yuan?"

Lin Sanjiu couldn't soften immediately, so she had to say with a straight face: "This is elementary school mathematics, you don't have to repeat it to me. In this way, you contact the landlord now; if the price can be reduced to this, I will pay immediately." How about your brokerage fee still being paid at the original price?”

The real estate agent's face made her think that she might indeed be crazy. The two stared at each other for a long time. In the silence of the bar, Di Mo nodded reluctantly: "I...I'll try. But you'd better avoid it. This is the rule."

"Okay," Lin Sanjiu knocked on the bar and glanced at the waiter out of the corner of her eye. The other party didn't move, and she didn't know what she was thinking about. With a bit of anxiety, she coughed: "Then how long will it take for me to be back?"

Ten minutes later, Lin Sanjiu opened the bar door again.

She was originally a little worried about whether McDuck's ability would still be effective after she left temporarily; but when her eyes fell on Demo's face, all her worries turned into a long breath and spit it out from her mouth. go out.

"I, I really have never seen anything like this," Di Mo's face was shocked and surprised, turning red and white: "I have never seen a buyer as stingy as you, nor a seller so easy to talk to..."

"Did he agree?" Lin Sanjiu still asked in disbelief.

"No, but it's almost less." Di Mo glanced at her, as if she was a ghost that had just emerged from the picture. Anyway, it was something that normal people could not understand. "He doesn't agree to reduce it by 60%, but he can reduce it by 50% - the price is half less!"

The goal of [scroogemcduckpower] is to win every business at the best price, rather than to ruin the business and make it impossible; from this perspective, the prices it quotes are essentially guarantees The lowest price under the transaction conditions. However, Lin Sanjiu found it hard to believe that half of the original price of the white ring was actually water - after all, judging from the holographic image and house pictures, it was, as Di Mo said, a nearly perfect house. .

As soon as the price dropped, she became uneasy again: What is wrong with this house? loud noise? In disrepair? Is there water, electricity and lighting?

"I really didn't expect," Di Mo's surprise was still not gone as he murmured when the two of them went out, "you can actually lower the price to this."

"I hope your guess about the homeowner is right," Lin Sanjiu whispered, "If he only came to see the buyer out of caution, then that's fine... It's best not for any other reason. "

"What other reasons could there be?" Di Mo frowned and thought for a while with his mouth half-open: "You don't know him, and he doesn't know you either. There is no grievance or enmity, the money and goods are clear... what else could it be? "

There was only one snow-white ring. Lin Sanjiu knew that her thoughts were useless, so she just nodded.

Next, she finally saw how troublesome a house transaction can be in which the buyer and seller cannot meet each other and the real estate agent cannot know the address of the house: First, Dimo ​​took her to the office of an organization outside Biluo District. It is said that It is an agency that specializes in managing housing transactions in Biluo Huangquan - here, she saw the pattern on the tattooed man's arm again.

Only this time, when the words "We run these twelve worlds" appeared in Lin Sanjiu's mind, there was a badge with a barefoot woman next to it, which should be the symbol of the corresponding organization.

Although real estate agents never enter the facility for security reasons, they all know what's inside. Di Mo hid in a weapons store early and told Lin Sanjiu step by step what needed to be done. According to his explanation, she took out the entire house payment and a handling fee and handed it over to a certain person. Seeing how people suspected that he would embezzle the money, the little fat man got back a receipt and a 27-digit number.

To be honest, when Lin Sanjiu pinched the two pieces of paper with a thin texture and suspicious appearance, she felt that if she came over the next day and found that the entire organization was gone and Dimo ​​could not be found, she would not be able to find it at all. Will be surprised.

But thankfully this didn't happen.

According to Demo's introduction, the buyer will then inform the seller of this number through the real estate agent.

The owner of the ring house, that is, the waiter, after going to the housing management agency to confirm the number and learning that the correct amount of house payment has indeed been received, he will provide the house address and the means of opening the house within fifteen days. All the information that the buyer needs to know is stored under this number and a document is generated. The seller will also get a receipt at this time with the same number.

When the real estate agent comes back with the news, the buyer goes to the housing management agency again and takes out the document he deserves according to the number - both of which must be kept properly, because if the buyer wants to sell the house in the future, When building a house, the same document must be used; from a certain point of view, this is a "land deed" that only contains house information and no owner information. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net In case it is taken away Lin Sanjiu will not be able to prove that he is the legal owner of the house.

After the documents are taken away by the buyer, the transaction is not finalized. This housing management agency is very considerate and has set aside a one-month appeal period for buyers: if the buyer finds anything wrong with the house or has any questions, he can appeal within one month. After the appeal period has passed and there are no further disputes, the house payment will be handed over to the seller—after deducting the handling fee, of course.

In this way, this complicated buying and selling process finally implements the separation between the house and the person. Although the seller knows the location of the house, he does not know who the buyer is or when he will move in. Moreover, the security measures will be changed when the owner changes. Therefore, this process has always been running smoothly, with few problems.

"Trust is the cornerstone of social functioning." This is no exception even in the post-apocalyptic reconstruction of human society. Even such a bumpy transaction process actually requires both buyers and sellers to pay essential trust; no matter where it is, if even the lowest level of trust cannot be maintained, then any exchange activities between humans will become almost impossible.

In any case, the white ring finally belonged to her.

The afternoon after getting the numbered document, Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath. She suppressed the excitement in her heart that made her palms itch, and walked toward the forest ahead.

The data body became the "anchor" of the gift package, and she hoped that this place would become the "anchor" of other partners.
