CHAPTER 210: CHAPTER 162: LEAKING ROOF (PART 3)

If it really leaks rain, that’s something for next year.

Moreover, Jiang Xin, just a young girl, looks easy to bully. If the warehouse truly leaks, he could just act intimidating, and she surely wouldn’t dare to say much.

The owner of the first warehouse figured the same, which is why he was desperately trying to promote it.

But he didn’t think it through. As long as you give it a bit of thought, you’d realize that today there’s a group of people with Jiang Xin inspecting one warehouse.

So all these warehouse owners are competitors.

Each of them is eager for Jiang Xin to rent their warehouse.

Thus, naturally, if they see any issues with a competitor’s warehouse, they would definitely point them out.

That way, the likelihood of Jiang Xin renting their warehouse would be higher.

So, the other warehouse owners wouldn’t miss this opportunity against the first warehouse owner. As soon as they heard what he said, they immediately jumped out to criticize him:

"You bastard, I see you are just trying to deceive the young girl because she looks easy to bully."

"Although your warehouse looks square and upright, one glance reveals many flaws."

"The waterproofing on your roof is definitely not done well. Look at those marks on the roof; they clearly indicate leaks."

"Although the rainy season is almost over, a girl renting a warehouse would certainly rent it for a year,"

"Exactly, exactly. Aren’t you being deceitful? If we weren’t here today, the young girl would’ve been deceived by you."

"Even though the rainy season is almost over soon, by next year, your warehouse will surely still have leaks."

"If you want to rent out the house, at least be honest about it,"

"The young girl is renting the warehouse for a purpose, for business. The last thing she wants is goods getting damaged. If she ends up renting your warehouse, stacks goods in it, and it rains, soaking her goods, will you cover the loss?"

"Exactly, we’re just lucky everyone is here today, or else the young girl would’ve been tricked by you."

"Right, right, young girl, don’t fall for his sweet talk. His warehouse isn’t good; you can see the leakage marks still up there."

"Indeed, there are still many warehouses you haven’t seen yet. Let’s not rush. We should compare and choose carefully. The price is negotiable."

After the owner of the first warehouse spoke, the other warehouse owners instantly became displeased and started exposing his flaws.

They directly pointed out all the shortcomings of his warehouse.

After all, they’re competitors now, and surely wouldn’t miss such an opportunity to reveal flaws.

At this moment, after hearing everyone’s comments, the owner of the first warehouse was already sweating profusely.

Had he known these people were so hard to deal with, he wouldn’t have opened his mouth and said those things. Now being criticized in public, he truly couldn’t find a way out.

It was indeed extremely embarrassing for him.

But he can’t blame others; he was indeed a bit anxious. He was eager to rent out the house because that would mean extra income for his family.

No matter how cheap this warehouse is, leasing it for a year could still bring in about a hundred bucks.

It could support his family’s expenses for several months. With such a great opportunity, of course, he wanted to seize it firmly. After all, that’s just human nature, and it’s understandable.

In fact, without the other warehouse owners speaking up, Jiang Xin had already noticed the problems with this warehouse.

Honestly, at first glance, Jiang Xin did have a decent impression of this warehouse.

However, as everyone said, this warehouse is evidently quite old. It can’t withstand a close examination. Upon a closer look, you can see all the issues with this warehouse.

Rain leakage is the most obvious one.

It can’t be hidden at all, after all, the marks are still on the walls.
