Capital City, early April, just a few days after the Qingming Festival, the weather was still a bit chilly.
In the sales center of a certain property in the TZ area, the sales staff handed a set of application materials to Ye Chen and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, your loan application has not been approved."
"Why?" Ye Chen asked in surprise.
"Because you own 108 properties under your name, so you do not meet the loan conditions."
"Poof!" Ye Chen widened his eyes and looked at the sales center staff, asking, "What did you say?"
"I said you own 108 properties."
This time Ye Chen heard it clearly, but it also made him laugh and cry. What was his situation? Didn't he know himself?
No house, no car, no savings, a typical three-nothing youth.
The failure of the 99th blind date a few days ago made Ye Chen's parents very anxious. They took out their life savings, borrowed some money from others, and barely managed to gather enough for a down payment for a two-bedroom apartment.
Ye Chen originally disagreed, but he couldn't resist his parents' persistence and had to agree. However, he didn't expect that after paying the down payment, he would be stuck at the bank.
108 houses, what a joke. If he had one house, he wouldn't have failed in 99 blind dates.
But they couldn't be mistaken either! What's going on? Ye Chen was a little confused.
Ye Chen, twenty-five years old, six feet tall, not tall but not short, not very handsome but not unattractive, belonging to the category of being handsome in a small way.
He looked a bit like the protagonist Leng Feng from "Wolf Warrior", belonging to the tough guy type.
After graduating from high school at the age of eighteen, he entered a security company and has been a security guard for seven years, working as a contract worker for a large security company.
The salary was not high, just over two thousand yuan a month, but there were benefits such as social insurance and housing provident fund, and he could also receive some year-end bonuses at the end of the year. The treatment was considered decent.
This was also the reason why he had never left. Because he had no education, he might not be as good elsewhere.
Ye Chen was a native of the capital city, but his "native" status was a bit fake because his family was on the border with Xianghe, which could be said to be the outskirts of the suburbs.
But no matter what, according to his ID card, he was a native of the capital city, and this was something that couldn't be changed.
In a daze, he came out of the sales center and first went to a bank to check the money in his account, which was the down payment returned by the sales center.
The money in the account was correct, so Ye Chen planned to go to the Housing Management Bureau to see what was going on. But just at that moment, his phone rang.
Ye Chen quickly answered the call, it was from the manager of the security company.
"Hello! Ye Chen."
"Manager, what's up?"
He had taken a leave of absence, so he didn't understand why the manager was calling him at this time.
"You come back to the company right away."
"Oh! Okay, I'll be right back."
There was no choice but to postpone going to the Housing Management Bureau for now and go back to the company first to see what was going on. He could always go to the Housing Management Bureau later.
Coming out of the self-service ATM, Ye Chen got on the second-hand electric bicycle he had bought for three hundred yuan and headed straight to the company.
Fortunately, the company was not too far from here, just a ten-minute ride.
After arriving at the company, Ye Chen put the electric bicycle in the bike shed and went straight to the manager's office.
"Knock, knock, knock." Ye Chen knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Ye Chen pushed open the door and entered. There was only the manager in the office. Ye Chen asked, "Manager, what's the matter? Why did you call me?"
"Please, have a seat."
Ye Chen was an old employee, even earlier than this manager in joining the company, so the manager was quite polite to him.
