After not seeing each other for a while, I can see that the agency guy has lost a lot of weight.

After all, the work is too hard and the boss is forcing me to lose weight.

Two months ago, in May, he successfully rented an office building to Ding Wei. As a result, his monthly salary plus bonus increased to 30,000 yuan, which gave him some hope of settling down in the imperial capital.

For this reason, I like to drink spicy food, have a bottle of beer every time, and don’t live too casually. In less than half a month, my belt has been loosened twice.

But hope is hope because it is always so elusive and erratic.

Big houses don’t come around every day!

On the contrary, because of his outstanding performance in May, his boss took a fancy to him.

When he was recognized as a performance model, the tasks given by his boss in June became even heavier.

The agent guy worked hard and wanted to beg his grandpa to sue his grandma. No matter how picky or difficult the customer was when viewing the house, he would coax each other like a waiter. In addition, the previous good luck may not have completely faded, so he almost completed the task.

, saving his precarious basic salary.

But the bosses today probably want to pay for fodder and earn back the extra milk.

They always feel that their employees are omnipotent, and as long as they work hard, there is nothing they can't do. If they fail to do it, it must be because they don't work hard.

The agency boy completed the task like a bull in June, and in July, another big task was placed on his head.

As a small company, there is no standardized system. Since your performance is good this month, you should raise some commission standards next month.

For example, you only need to sell three houses this month. If you don’t sell five houses next month, your basic salary will be deducted...

This is also a common routine used by intermediary companies.

Not just intermediaries, but anything linked to sales basically has this method. This industry now relies entirely on the conscience of the boss.

After all, the agency guy is a migrant worker, and he has not yet reached the point where he can fire the boss at any time. Faced with pressure at all levels and the commission he has received in the past two months, he can only grit his teeth and work hard, and will not let go.

any potential customer.

Including the eldest lady who was dressed in a village manner and who was looking around at the door of the agency with a hesitant look on her face.

…

On this hot day, he only had a small battery. After taking the person to the place, the person looked around the house and still felt it was a bit expensive.

In fact, you can’t make much money by renting out a house, but mosquito legs are still meat no matter how small they are.

The agent no longer had the right to be willful. When he saw that this lady sincerely wanted to rent a house, he subconsciously put a sincere smile on her dark face.

"It doesn't matter, sister, you don't like this place. There is another place ahead. I will take you to see it again. I think you will be satisfied this time."

The other party was quite dissatisfied.

"You didn't say before that there was a place that would definitely satisfy me. Why didn't you take me there from the beginning?"

The agency guy chuckled and looked quite honest, but didn't speak.

Renting a house, like selling a house, requires strategy.

The most suitable ones are placed in front of the guests at once, and they pick and choose again. When they look back and see those with other shortcomings, they hesitate and hesitate, making it even harder to make a decision.

On the contrary, if the front part has various shortcomings, and the latter part is the one that best meets the standards, then the probability of closing the deal is much higher.

Of course, as long as you understand this in your heart, there is no need to say more.

The car parked at the east gate of the community, and it was not troublesome enough to go around and ride the bicycle. The two of them just crossed the road along the side door and transferred to another community.

——in the alley next to.

…

These days, in a big city like the Imperial Capital, intermediaries can make a little bit of money.

However, the agency fee was charged for renting a house, which still makes the elder sister who came to see the house feel resentful.

"Your agency fee really can't be any lower. If you ask me, half a month's rent is really too much!"

"Don't you think I should just find a place where I can work? If it's so expensive, I might as well figure it out myself."

In fact, we have gone back and forth with each other many times about bargaining, and the agency guy understands the psychology of the other party.

I just feel sorry for the money, so I want to talk a few more times to see if I can find the right opportunity to reduce it a little bit.

After this period of training, his patience has also improved to a higher level. Now he does not feel that the agency fee is small at all, but said sincerely:

"Sister, it's not that I won't give you less, the company's system is here, I have already given you the lowest price. No matter how low it is, I can't even pay for the electricity bill of the rechargeable bottle today."

The young guy has honesty written all over his face:

"You said that on such a hot day, I would show you the houses under the bright sun, one after another, and I couldn't pay for the electricity and drinks, right?"

"I've told you, and we've seen several sets, and I know it's not easy for you - who has it easy? They all come here to work, aren't they all to support their families?"

Pearl stared at the other person's chatter and thought: No wonder they have to pay for drinks. If they talk so much, they have to drink a lot of water.

The other party hasn’t finished speaking yet:

"...Well, let's not ask for half of the rent. The flat price is three hundred yuan. If you think it's okay, then I will write it like this when we sign the contract. Don't think that this money belongs to me.

I’m just a part-time worker, so what kind of money can I get? The bulk of it still has to be given to the company. I can earn thirty or fifty yuan, do you think it’s easy?”

The commission for selling a house is fixed and depends on the price.

But the commission for renting a house is much more relaxed. After all, not many people are willing to find an agent when renting a house these days!

This is a side business of their company, so the conditions are much more relaxed.

But there is no need to talk about this kind of discount for every difficult customer.

…

well.

It’s true that it’s quite a hard day out here.

The young man was so sunburned that he was oily.

Pearl looked at him and now knew that there was no point in negotiating the price, so she reluctantly agreed.

The agency guy understands the customer's needs quite well, and what he brought here to see is an old courtyard in a village in the city.

Don't get me wrong, it's certainly not a courtyard house.

It's an old, privately renovated house on the edge of the Fourth Ring Road, with brand new walls.

It is inlaid with bright glass particles, and the irregular edges are very sharp, which is so hard that it dazzles the eyes in the summer.

Initially looking at the vermilion door, Pearl was somewhat interested, but at the same time she was still a little uneasy, fearing that the rent would be too expensive and not worth it.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door and saw that the yard was covered with grass, there were wild wormwood, mugwort, and some miscellaneous green weeds with names that were more than one meter high...

The old loofah on a loofah vine that sprouted at some point was all chapped.

I don’t know if the bluestone slabs on the ground are originally old, or if they are tattered by weeds...

This is no different from a house in the countryside that has been abandoned for several years.

…

Pearl sighed.

Before I came to the Imperial Capital, I thought there might be some kind of high-rise building under the emperor's feet, just like the one on TV.

Who would have known that when I actually came here, I found that not only were there dirty and old group rental houses, but also old houses like this could be found nowadays.

Ouch, thinking about it this way, the apartment given by the big boss at home is already excellent, right?

"Is there such a house in this imperial capital?"

Her psychological expectations were shattered, and her voice was filled with frustration.

How can anyone live in this poor house?

…

"Why not?"

The agent pointed out: "Look, this area basically has the same environment. But they are all old residents. There are three or five families living in the same yard. There are problems left over from history."

It’s hard to say much about this aspect, but Pearl is a bit put off by this house.

"This house is so dilapidated."

But no.

This privately renovated house doesn't have much to offer. The yard is quite large, with random sheds on the left and right sides. Now it's empty.

On the other side is the kitchen. The room is quite big. When you look inside -

Oops, what year is this hotpot?

Didn’t all the imperial capital use gas stoves many years ago?

Pearl was stunned.

For those who didn’t know, I thought she had returned to her hometown.
