So, after observing the warehouse for two or three minutes, Jiang Xin immediately noticed the problems with it, so she knew that she absolutely couldn’t rent this warehouse.
Actually, it’s not a problem right now, since the rainy season has already passed this year. However, she’s renting the warehouse for long-term planning,
If she were to actually rent this warehouse,
And moved half of her goods from her space into it, then next summer, she’d probably have a headache again.
After all, it’s inevitable that this building leaks when it rains.
Additionally, as she’s only renting, she’s considering cost-effectiveness. If she were to rent this place, she’d have to waterproof it. After all, if it does leak, the losses of the goods would be hers to bear; the landlord won’t be responsible for this issue.
If she has to waterproof it, accounting for this cost plus the warehouse rental fees,
The total would directly exceed her budget, and in terms of waterproofing and product loss, those are additional expenses,
Altogether, it would be very cost-ineffective—time-consuming and labor-intensive. If she really has to, she’d rather go rent a warehouse that’s perfect in every aspect.
So, she originally planned to refuse. Even if no one exposed the landlord of the first warehouse, Jiang Xin wouldn’t rent it anyway,
Jiang Xin glanced at the time; they had already wasted about fifteen minutes at the first warehouse. Latest content publıshed on NoveIꜰire.net
Because there are several more warehouses to visit, she wasn’t busy the entire day, having already handed all the vendor stall matters over to Lin Ye; she was completely hands-off.
But the people following her around to look at warehouses were different. They likely have serious work to do and don’t have the time to idle around with her.
So, Jiang Xin got straight to the point and refused the landlord of the first warehouse:
"Actually, even without them saying anything, I could see it. The traces of rain leakage in this house are still there."
"You know I am a businessperson, and in the future, if I stack my goods in this warehouse and it leaks, who will bear my losses?"
"So I’m sorry; I know you hid the fact that the house leaks because you want to rent it out, but taking everything into account, I can’t rent your property."
After Jiang Xin spoke her refusal, the landlord of the first warehouse didn’t utter a word.
After all, he knew he was at fault here.
He tried to take advantage of a young girl, but it didn’t work out.
Instead, he got pointed out by a bunch of people in public, which was indeed a bit embarrassing,
So, he awkwardly scratched his nose and didn’t say much else, just bowed his head to see the guests out,
The following warehouse visits went much smoother.
Because these people were in competition, they were all eager to pick faults with one another,
Basically, each warehouse had issues; the landlords exposed each other’s downsides, which Jiang Xin was quite pleased to see, as she was the ultimate beneficiary.
With the landlords picking out each other’s issues, Jiang Xin saved herself a lot of trouble and could reduce costs in renting a warehouse due to the existing problems.
Moreover, she didn’t even have to pick faults herself, as the landlords helped her do that.
Jiang Xin was quite content.
Finally, after comparing three options, Jiang Xin chose the fourth landlord, simply because their warehouse was spacious and had ready-made shelving inside. More importantly, it was the closest one to the vegetable market.
Walking there would only take about three minutes, which would be very convenient for retrieving goods in the future.
