"It's enough if I treat you to a meal tomorrow. Thanks to your help along the way, the goods can be sold so fast."
"This is what it should be."

"Let's help each other. It's very late. Let's move your luggage in first and see if your house has been rented out."
"We can just do it ourselves. It doesn't matter if we rent it out. At most, we can carry our luggage to the guest house."
"Let's go take a look together first. We're already at the door anyway, so we don't have much time left. I'll leave my luggage first and go take a look first to make sure."
He sincerely wanted to help, so Ye Yaodong did not refuse and let him go in with him. He spoke the local language and could communicate better with the two elders.
If there is no place to stay later, he can be sent to a guest house.
Ye Yaodong has the key, but he is worried that it will be rented out, so he opens the door directly and goes in. If he is regarded as a thief, it will be very troublesome to fight.
He first went to knock on the door of the small house next to it, where two old men lived before.
After knocking a few times, someone inside finally responded and lit a candle.
When the old man came to open the door, he was still cursing, and he was shocked when he saw it was him.
"Ah, you...why are you here..."
Ye Yaodong probably understood what he meant, "Come up here to do something. I have renewed the lease until September. I still have the key, so I can drive in directly."
The old man was a little frightened when he saw so many people around him, and he quickly called his wife.
The old lady was also cursing and asking who was knocking on the door in the middle of the night and why he called her specifically.
The two old men communicated in the air, and soon they were standing in front of him, and then told him directly that he was not here and it had been rented out now.
Before Ye Yaodong could speak, the four workers next to him were already cursing in their native dialect.
"How could you two old people do this? We paid for it and you kept the house..."
"That's right, you still want to pay double rent. Where can we live now?"
"No matter what, we have paid for it a long time ago. That house is ours and we will live in it."
"You either call the people inside, or we call the door!"
Seeing them being so loud and excited, the two old men felt that their words were not a good thing, and the old man also spat and cursed.
However, they didn't quite understand.
However, people are naturally sensitive to swear words. You may not understand good words, but you can still understand swear words even if you don't understand them.
The layman stood up and said, "I'm here to tell them that they don't understand what you say, and you don't understand what they say."
Ye Yaodong also asked everyone to be silent for now and let the common people help to communicate. Now in the middle of the night, just scolding and making trouble would not solve the problem. He was also very tired after riding in the car for a day. He was mentally and physically exhausted.
The layman communicated with them in local dialect. The old man was very loud at first, but the old lady pulled him a few times, and then he started to speak normally.
After communicating for a while, the layman said: "They said that the house has been rented out and there is no other way to kick people out..."
The worker said excitedly: "First come, first served, then we have paid you, so why..."
"Listen to what I have to say first. They said that they did receive money from A Dong. At that time, they thought it was a waste. They didn't know you were here now. I said they were unreasonable and asked them to make arrangements. Now it's like this
It’s late and you can’t sleep on the street.”
"They are locals after all and are familiar with the surrounding area. They also know where there are available houses in the near future. I asked them to take you to the available houses now."
"Of course, they have to pay the rent. After all, you have paid them the rent. Now that they have rented out the house you rented, they must solve the housing problem for you."
Ye Yaodong nodded, "Well, yes, since they rented out the house I rented, they must solve the housing problem for me."
"They said yes, but they said the rent has increased this year. What you paid before was not enough. They also watched the rent increase and were reluctant to leave it empty. Now in mid-May, there are still three and a half months left before you rented it. They said
You have to make up for the difference in rent for these three and a half months."
"Why, we have rented until September..."
"Yes, why do we need to pay more? They obviously broke the contract..."
Ye Yaodong stopped the worker from continuing and nodded, "Okay, then I will make up for the difference in rent for three and a half months."
Just think of it as an introduction fee.
It was so late, and it would save trouble to arrange it directly, and avoid having to argue tomorrow. Even if they could get the rent refunded, it would probably only be three and a half months, and he would have to go out of his way to find a house.
Trouble that can be solved with money is not a trouble, and it only costs a few dollars.
If he was bothering to talk about this in the middle of the night, it would be better to spend some money and arrange a proper rest early. He still has things to do tomorrow. If he delays for an extra day or two, he may have to delay more things.
It will be even more troublesome if you can't make it back in time.
It's just to make up for the difference in rent.
The layman agreed: "I think so too. If I'm not here, I can't tell you what happened in the past few months. If you want them to refund the money, you can only count it from today until the time you rent it."
"The rent in this place is indeed rising every year. If it is a short-term rental, it will also rise every month."
Ye Yaodong said: "Well, let's let it be that way. You tell them, take us to an available house now, let them talk to the new landlord, and we'll wait to move in."
"good."
The layman turned around and communicated with the two elders.
The two old men nodded again and again, then put on their coats and came out holding candles.
When I saw them all using flashlights, I put out the candles again.
It is normal for the elderly to light candles and be reluctant to light lamps in order to save money.
They followed behind, separated by an alley, and watched as the two old men knocked on the door, shouted a few words, reported their identities, and someone came to open the door.
Ye Yaodong just listened to their chatter, and some laypeople also talked to them.
After the agreement was reached, he motioned for him to pay for the difference.
"It has been agreed that you only need to pay the difference to the landlord, and the two old men will pay the remaining three and a half months' rent to the landlord tomorrow. They have already agreed."
"Okay, thank you very much, brother. It's a good thing you followed me, otherwise we might have been arguing until dawn without being able to resolve the matter."
"It doesn't matter. It's just a casual matter. Just settle the matter. If anything else happens, tell me tomorrow. You know where I live."
"I know, after I settle down, I'll call you for dinner tomorrow."
"You're welcome. Let's take a look first and let the workers carry the luggage."
Ye Yaodong nodded and then motioned to the workers to pick up their luggage first.
The two old ones also left first.
The laity waited until all their luggage had been brought in before leaving.
The new landlord gave him the keys after taking the rent, and then went back to his house, ignoring them and settling in.
Ye Yaodong still holds the key to the room over there in his hand. He didn't give it to him just now. He agreed that tomorrow the two elders will pay the remaining rent here and he will return the key to them.
This also gave him a reminder to change the lock of the room here early tomorrow morning, so that the previous tenant would not still have the key in his hand.
"After riding in the car for a day, I was exhausted. Fortunately, I was able to settle down immediately."
"Those two old guys are so shameless. They bullied us from other places. If it hadn't been for the lay boss who spoke the local dialect just now, he probably wouldn't have admitted it."
"That's right, it looked pretty good last year, but now it's turned against them and doesn't recognize them anymore."
