Chapter 6 Hope Around the Corner (Kneel for Recommendations, Clicks, Collections)

It's nine o'clock in the blink of an eye. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ye Tian hadn't gone out yet, he was waiting for someone.

"Boom ......"

There was a knock on the door.

"Later, here!"

Ye Tian answered, and walked towards the door with a smile.

Facing a cold face, it was the landlord, a middle-aged white woman, with a big waist and a round waist, and 200 pounds!

"Hey, Susan, good morning!"

Ye Tian smiled and said hello.

Aunt Susan gave him a not-so-warm smile in return, and then went straight to the point.

"Good morning Steven, is the rent ready? If you still don't, then I can only ask you to leave, you are already in arrears for two months, I can't forgive you any more!"

The rent here is a thousand dollars a month, and when he first moved here, Ye Tian still had some money, and he paid it for a quarter, originally he thought that he would be able to find a job soon and be able to afford the rent in the future, so he didn't have anything to worry about.

But who knew that bad luck has always been with him, and he has applied for jobs countless times in the past six months, but all he got was cold rejection, and the whole of Manhattan rejected himself!

And the little money I have on me is only enough to make ends meet, and I can afford to pay the rent there!

So when a quarter passes, and when the rent is paid again, he can only drag it out day by day.

It has been delayed for two months now, and today is the deadline, and if he can't hand it in again, he can only roll up the bed and get out of the way, and sleep on the streets, which is one of the reasons why he jumped into the river in despair yesterday.

The Aunt Susan in front of her is not bad, but when it comes to money, it is definitely not recognized by the six relatives! Not to mention that Ye Tian, a renter, can give him a grace period of two months, which is not easy.

"Susan, thank you for your generosity in keeping me from being homeless, I know today is the deadline and the rent is ready"

"Ahh

Hearing Ye Tian's words, Susan was stunned for a moment and exclaimed.

She is ready to return empty-handed today, but she has to take back the house no matter what, as for whether Ye Tian is homeless or not, it doesn't matter!

And the answer given by Ye Tian was completely unexpected, which is why she was so surprised.

Soon Susan was smiling all over her face, extremely bright.

"Great! You're such a trustworthy gentleman!"

Ye Tian's face turned slightly red, and he did not reply to this compliment.

If you didn't have yesterday's adventure, you would really be dishonest today.

"Are you only paying the rent you were owed, or are you going to pay a few more months?"

Aunt Susan asked excitedly, green dollars could be seen in her blue eyes!

"In addition to the arrears of two months' rent, pay another quarter! Wait a minute, this will give you the money."

After speaking, Ye Tian turned around and walked into the bedroom and went to get the rent.

Aunt Susan went to the window and shouted downstairs.

"Paul, come up quickly!"

"Okay!

Someone downstairs answered loudly, and then the sound of "banging" the car door was heard.

Ye Tian came out just when he heard it, and couldn't help laughing.

Paul, Susan's husband, apparently came to clean up the room and blast himself away.

Then Susan turned around and came back, and when she saw Ye Tian already standing in the living room, she immediately smiled awkwardly.

"You click, it's five thousand dollars, five months' rent"

Ye Tian smiled and handed over a wad of dollars, which was quite painful!

"Great!"

Susan smiled and took the cash and began to count it.

"Boom ......"

The door was slammed again, and it was clear that Paul had come up.

Ye Tian walked over and opened the door, and saw a fat face again.

"Hey!

Paul greeted and peered into the room with a wary look in his eyes.

When he saw that Susan was counting money, his expression immediately changed, he became smiling and warm, and he was almost like two people before.

Ye Tian didn't have the heart to think about this, and let him into the room with a smile.

Soon, the two happily ordered the perfect money and put it in their bags.

It was only then that they noticed the changes in the room, which was neat and tidy and comfortable to look at. This makes them very satisfied, after all, it is their own house, and no one wants to be turned into a pig's nest!

Looking at Ye Tian again, they also found a lot of differences.

At this time, Ye Tian was radiant, full of energy, his eyes were bright, full of confidence, and he couldn't see the slightest malaise.

"This is like the way life is, you were too decadent before!"

Susan complimented.

"Indeed!"

Ye Tian nodded, this time is different from the past!

"Have you found a job? It is said that you used to do financial analysis, are you back on Wall Street? If so, you will definitely not be able to live in Brooklyn for a few days, and the SC area of Manhattan should be your residence."

Susan asked with interest, her eyes full of envy.

Manhattan is a symbol of wealth in the eyes of Americans, and it is true there, and in the eyes of New Yorkers, Manhattan is the city, and the rest of the city is the country.

And Manhattan's SC district is a symbol of the rich and the elite, and everyone is proud to live there.

The Upper East Side is a high-class neighborhood of splendor, luxury, and glitz, with a concentration of America's most elite people.

The Upper West Side is a middle-class neighborhood that is quiet, reserved, and full of anticipation.

Ye Tian lived in the Upper West Side before, and was ready to enter the Upper East Side with great ambitions, but there were unforeseen circumstances, and now he is not even qualified to live in the Upper West Side!

Hearing Susan's question, Ye Tian couldn't help but think of his previous house and glamorous work and life.

But that's all gone, and now I'm just a Brooklyn renter.

Soon he woke up, smiled and shook his head.

"I haven't found a job yet, and I haven't returned to Wall Street, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to go back in the future!"

"Ahh

Both Susan and Paul were taken aback.

But they didn't continue to ask, after all, it involves other people's privacy.

After a few more conversations, the two got up and left.

Before going out, Susan turned back to Ye Tian and said:

"Don't be disappointed, keep working hard, I heard a saying from you Chinese, 'The road ahead is dead, hope is around the corner', it makes sense, I will also send you this sentence"

"Thank you! I'll cheer up!"

Thanks to Aunt Susan's Chicken Soup for the Soul, Ye Tian sent them away.

Then Ye Tian cleaned up and prepared to go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art to test the ability of his eyes.

It's one of the four major museums in the world, and there is a shortage of antiques from any era, enough to figure out the eyes and those abilities.

After going out, Ye Tianbin did not go downstairs immediately, but came to the sixth floor and knocked on Jason's door, ready to return the padlock he borrowed yesterday.

According to Ye Tian's understanding of Jason, he should still be in bed.

Sure enough, Jason's voice soon came from inside the room.

"Who! what's the matter?"

"I, Steven, come and return your padlock"

Ye Tian responded.

After waiting five or six seconds, the door opened, and Jason stood unkempt and sleepy-eyed.

Ye Tian didn't plan to go in, so he reached out and handed over the padlock.

"Good morning, Jason, it's your padlock, thank you!"

"You're welcome!

Jason took the lock, his other hand still rubbing his eyes.

"Okay, you go back and go back to sleep, I'll go first"

Ye Tian turned around and left.

At this time, Jason suddenly sobered up, took a step directly from the door and grabbed Ye Tian's arm, his expression was full of excitement.

"Steven, wait a minute, I have something to ask you"

"What's the matter?"

Ye Tian looked back at Jason in surprise, not understanding what he was going to ask.

Jason looked left and right at the corridor, there was no one else, he hurriedly came to Ye Tian's side and asked mysteriously:

"Did you pick up an antique pistol yesterday in that $1 garbage storehouse, and sell it for a lot of money?"

"How do you know?"

Ye Tian asked vigilantly, and did not deny it.

This can't be concealed at all, and there are so many mouths opened by the warehouse company and the Brown gun shop! Let them all keep it a secret for themselves, how can it be?

Seeing Ye Tian's attitude, Jason understood that the rumors were completely true, and he was immediately even more excited.

"It was spread among the second-hand shops in the surrounding area, as well as among the people who often participate in warehouse auctions, and several clerks at the Brown Gun Shop also said it.

You're so lucky! Tell your brother how you know there's an antique pistol in that junk storehouse? It's incredible!"

Ye Tian smiled and shook his head.

"I didn't know there was an antique pistol in it! I came across it by pure luck, so there's nothing to say."

Hearing this explanation, and thinking about the situation in the garbage warehouse yesterday, Jason can only agree with this answer.

Ye Tian didn't even plan to participate in the warehouse auction, but he just ran into it temporarily, so he picked up such a big bargain.

"You're so lucky, it looks like God is starting to favor you"

"I'm lucky, no problem, I'm leaving."

"What brand of antique pistol? The clerk at the gun shop can't tell me, I'd like to know."

Jason asked curiously again.

"Ruger P08 from 1940"

After finishing speaking, Ye Tian turned around and left, leaving only Jason who was stunned.

"Oh my God! The $1 garbage warehouse was able to pick up the Ruger P08, it's crazy! God, are you crazy, why didn't you give me this good thing?"
