290 Renting a Mobile Temporary House

It's gotten that bad? Yu Xinya could not help but frown. They could only get about 200 catties worth of produce from one mu of land now. The front and back yards added together only had a few mu of land. How much could they harvest? Would it be enough for so many of them?

Seeing Yu Xinya frowning, Wu Yan had a bad feeling. Wheat is fine grain! If you're worried that you won't have enough to eat, you can grow coarse grains with a high yield like corn, sorghum, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and so on.

Looking at Wu Yan's anxious face that was covered in sweat, Du Yue knew that he really wanted this order to succeed. Thinking about it, he did not know how to farm and could only rely on being an agent to make a living. Now that he had met such a big customer, he definitely wanted to seize the opportunity. Yu Xinya hesitated for a while, but in the end, she decided to rent the courtyard.

How much food could be grown and whether it was enough for everyone would be a problem that needed to be solved later. The most important thing now was for the 200 of them to find a place to stay. Hearing that Yu Xinya decided to rent this place, Wu Yan's expression immediately relaxed. Then let's go back and sign the contract now, okay? he asked anxiously.

Yu Xinya did not want to drag things out for too long. The earlier they signed the contract, the earlier they could move in and have a good night's sleep. She agreed, and He Xing drove the four of them back to Wu Yan's rental agency. Du Yue had thought that the contract would be a paper one if it was signed at this time.

However, this was not the case. After the contract is signed, Yu Xinya's identity card would have a rental record, and this information could be seen on any card reader in the base. In this way, the rights and interests of the tenants were fully guaranteed, and the possibility of being cheated by the intermediary after paying the money could be avoided. The third base officials were very thoughtful about this.

Du Yue silently praised the third base in her heart. Then, she said to Wu Yan, Let me take a look at the other houses here.

Other houses? Wu Yan was a little confused. Aren't you guys together? Do you guys want to live separately?

Yes, IDu Yue was about to answer when Yu Xinya stopped her.

Yu Xinya grabbed Du Yue's wrist and said, Sister, the courtyard is so big. You two can come and live with us. I'll prepare a room for you. Don't waste your money on renting another house. There's no way to earn contribution points now. The more you spend, the less you'll earn.

There were only 20 rooms in total. If there were more than 270 people, it would be a tight squeeze. How dare Du Yue ask Yu Xinya to arrange a separate room for her?

Just as she was about to refuse, Wu Yan said, If there are so many of you, you can actually consider a mobile house.

Du Yue and Yu Xinya looked at him at the same time. A mobile house?

Yes, it's one of those temporary dormitories at the construction site. Have you not seen it before? It's more mobile and lighter overall. If you buy it, you can assemble it according to your own ideas. There are so many of you, so those 20 rooms won't be enough. This problem can be solved by renting a few mobile houses. It's so simple.

It did sound like a way Du Yue looked at Wu Yan with interest. How do you know so much? Do you have such a thing in your hands?

I'm doing this for a living. Of course, I have them! How about this? I'll take you to see the mobile houses first, and you can discuss whether you want to rent them later.

Du Yue nodded. Alright, let's go and take a look first!

Alright!

Wu Yan led them out of the back door and into the backyard. There was a shed built next to the yard, and inside the shed were many movable boards. These movable boards were all double-layer aluminum and foam cores. Although the quality was worse than ordinary houses, it was still enough for people to live in. Most importantly, it was very convenient.

As long as one used a few square pipes as support, one could build a mobile wooden house very quickly. The movable boards here were divided into two piles. One of them had no traces of use and was brand new at first glance. The other type had all kinds of scratches and holes left by drilling. They must have already been rented by others. Although the boards were similar in use regardless of whether they were new or old, Du Yue did not want to use the old ones if the price difference between the two was not much.

Just as she was mulling over this, she heard He Xing ask Wu Yan, What are the prices for these two piles?

These boards have been used by others. One piece is one contribution point a month. However, if they're broken, you'll have to pay ten contribution points for each piece. These brand new ones cost twice the price of the old ones. One piece is two contribution points a month. Actually, if you don't have a big budget, you can just rent the old boards. They'll still be the same.
