Siheyuan: Don’t say I can’t do it

Chapter 68 Get a 1-story shop

The repair shop that the downstairs neighbor mentioned is easy to find. It is a two-story building with a miniature courtyard. The total usable area of ​​all the rooms is less than 240 square meters.

"My back house is only over 10 square meters and can be sold for 200 yuan. So, this shop with the courtyard house is not expensive at 2,400 yuan. What's more, the tenant of the shop is an electrical appliance repairman. If I become his landlord, I will have many opportunities to observe and learn his electrical appliance repair skills..."

As for the other four tenants in the yard, three of them have moved out now, and the remaining tenant is a female tenant who is a salesperson in a trust store.

Chen Luo felt it was okay, so he immediately went back to the shipping warehouse to visit his downstairs neighbor.

Old Man Sun happened to be there, and when he heard that Chen Luo intended to buy the shop, he immediately took the title deed and took Chen Luo away.

When we arrived at the Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office, the transfer procedures were quickly completed.

It can be seen that Old Man Sun was not talking nonsense, he had indeed laid the groundwork. The clerk simply asked a few questions and asked him whether he wanted to continue renting out the vacant room.

Chen Luo said that he wanted to keep the house for his marriage, and his parents might also come to live with him. Anyway, he had plenty of excuses, he just didn't want to have any new tenants.

After leaving Jiaodaokou Sub-district Office, Chen Luo was glad that he didn't run into anyone he knew, otherwise if the matter spread to No. 95 Courtyard, someone would be eyeing his house again.

Old Man Sun took Chen Luo to the shop on Gulou East Street again and introduced him, the new landlord, to the tenant.

The man in his forties who does electrical appliance repair is named Hua Guoqiang. His woman is also engaged in electrical appliance repair like him. The couple seems to have similar interests.

The salesperson in the backyard was not there, so Old Man Sun said goodbye and left.

Chen Luo returned to the electrical appliance repair shop in front and sat there watching Hua Guoqiang repair the radio.

He was repairing a three-band tube radio.

Chen Luo saw that Hua Guoqiang used a 105-type multimeter to connect here and there, and soon he determined the problem and said that 6Z4 was burned out.

Then he used a soldering iron to open the solder joint, removed the broken tube, replaced it with a new one and tried it. The radio worked fine!

This job looks really simple. You can earn one or two dollars just by doing it. It is much easier than carrying heavy bags.

After Hua Guoqiang reassembled the radio's casing, Chen Luo handed him a cigarette and praised him as usual. Finally, he asked him where to start and what books he needed to read if he wanted to learn how to repair radios.

Hua Guoqiang was not shy about it. He went to the inner room, got out a few books, and introduced them to Chen Luo.

Chen Luo didn't think about buying them. He just sat here and finished reading these books.

He could only remember the general idea, but the system had recorded it completely.

Chen Luo watched here for a day and felt that they still had too little work.

Even so, the two of them could earn about twenty dollars together.

The couple are so relaxed that it seems like they can finish the work even if there is two or three times more.

Chen Luo wanted to observe Hua Guoqiang's repair skills more, so he had an idea.

He asked Hua Guoqiang how to share the profits for him.

Chen Luo thought that since he took jobs everywhere and had to deliver them, he should take half of the money. Hua Guoqiang refused to do it. He said that repairing radios was a technical job and the money was earned from the skills, so he was only willing to give him 20% as a running errand fee.

He also said that those jobs would come to him sooner or later, and there was no need to go to the door to collect them.

Seeing how confident he was, Chen Luo had a new idea. He wanted to collect and repair the problems himself, and send those that he couldn't repair to Hua Guoqiang, so that he could learn how he solved the problems.

So Chen Luo went out and bought a multimeter, a soldering iron, solder, rosin, soldering scissors... He bought everything he could think of that he would need, and also bought two shelves to place the radio on.

Everything was ready, so Chen Luo used odd jobs to search for places where there were radios that needed to be repaired.

This search surprised him greatly. There were quite a few families with problems with their radios. Based on the optimal 12-hour income from odd jobs, he could earn more than yuan.

But he had to pick up work around six in the afternoon to earn that much.

It just so happened that he didn't like the soldering iron that used an alcohol lamp, so he went to the Beiwa Road Radio Factory and bought a soldering iron at a high price.

This soldering iron is a real copper-head constant temperature soldering iron, and the power can also be adjusted, with three levels of 25.

After Chen Luo came back, he tried it and found it very convenient and easy to use.

Chen Luo abandoned the soldering iron that needed to be heated by an alcohol lamp.

Since electric soldering iron is so convenient, why does Hua Guoqiang still choose the old-fashioned soldering iron?

After asking, Chen Luo understood that Hua Guoqiang felt that the temperature control of the electric soldering iron was not very precise, unlike when he used alcohol to heat the soldering iron, he could control the temperature precisely.

Chen Luo thought about it and felt that he could use the soldering time to control the temperature. As for which soldering iron is more useful, he would have to try it out before he could know.

Now he needed to learn electronic repair skills in a virtual environment, so he switched the offensive and defensive environment.

He noticed that there were 101 times more happiness critical hits, among which Yu Li's happiness index dropped to 22%, while He Yushui's happiness index did not drop much, still at 79%.

Chen Luo couldn't help but mutter in his heart that the Yu sisters were indeed difficult to serve.

In order to improve his learning efficiency, he went to the machinery factory again, picked up Yu Li and went into the mountains.

It just so happened that Yu Li was thinking about this and Chen Luo was not around, so her happiness index dropped so low. Now that the two of them kissed each other, her happiness index soared to more than 70%.

More than an hour later, her happiness index rose to 100% again, but her contempt index dropped by one percentage point and is now 69%.

Chen Luo didn't have much to say, because he had done a lot of useless work and he still had to listen to Yu Li at the critical stage.

This time, the place they found had a small stream of water, so Yu Li could wash herself.

But she still reminded Chen Luo that it would be best to rent a house nearby, otherwise it would be too inconvenient for the two of them to date.

And she felt that if she went back without washing, it would be too easy for others to find out.

Chen Luo sent her to the machinery factory's staff quarters and watched her go in from a distance before leaving.

It was already past 7:30 in the evening and he had missed a lot of time.

So he quickly returned to Dongzhimen Hospital and started taking on radio repair jobs.

Almost no one dared to give him the radio, after all, it was quite valuable.

In order to save time, Chen Luo gave them a deposit directly.

This makes folding very smooth.

He soon collected enough.

In fact, he could continue to collect, but it was not worth it.

Because if the repair time is too long, it cannot be completed within the specified time, and his 12-hour rate of return will decrease.
