My Wife is Obviously a Queen but She is too Virtuous

Chapter 105 - Can't Afford a Nice House

"South Shuangdan?"

Luo Hui's eyes lit up, "This place has four seasons like summer and little rain, so it doesn't affect the shooting, it seems pretty good!"

He patted Zhang Zhiqin's shoulder, "You can, Xiao Zhang!"

Zhang Zhiqin smiled heedlessly and was happy that he could play a role.

Fang Xiaole was not so quick to conclude, he thought about it and said slowly.

"It's true that the climate in Nansha is nice, but are there any farmhouses that are suitable for the kind of environment the show requires, as well as the surrounding villages?"

Luo Hui also calmed down, thought carefully and nodded his head.

"Yeah, two stories high, in addition to housing four permanent guests, there should be rooms for temporary guests, a larger kitchen, a courtyard, and preferably small animals like cats and dogs or chickens and ducks, so as to reflect the atmosphere of idyllic life."

Zhang Zhiqin followed, "The courtyard should also be large enough to accommodate seven or eight people for dinner, and then a swing, hmmm..."

"Little Fang, how about this."

Luo Hui sought Fang Xiaole's opinion.

"We'd better go on a field trip and try to find a place that meets the requirements, and if the season is indeed particularly suitable in South Shuangbanna, we'll simply find a suitable place to build a farmhouse now!"

"Luo has a point, or we need to go to the field to see it before we can make a decision."

Fang Xiaole agreed.

"Then when are we going, haha, I've never been to South Shuangbanna before, I've heard that the girls there are beautiful and passionate, tsk tsk tsk, my big sniper is already hungry for it!"

Zhang Zhiqin was full of anticipation, his mouth was watering.

Luo Hui looked at him with a smile, "Not so fast, there's still a lot of preparations to be done over here, it's going to be the weekend at the earliest, and it's not like I'm asking you to go, you have to stay and keep the house."

"Huh?" Zhang Zhiqin's face fell, "Isn't there you Luo, why do you want me to stay?"

Fang Xiaole couldn't help but laugh, "Brother Luo is teasing you, he is the director, of course he can't leave, he will have to work hard for you to run with me then."

"Don't worry Brother Fang, I promise to complete the task!" Zhang Zhiqin was suddenly happy.

"Stinker, you followed Little Fang over there for work, don't think about picking up girls all day!" Luo Hui cursed with a laugh.

"Why aren't you worried about Brother Fang, Director Luo? It's his looks that make him the easiest to get girls ha!" Zhang Zhiqin was not convinced.

"Fang is not like you, he wouldn't use the show to quietly fall in love!" Luo Hui trusted Fang Xiaole.

"Ahem." Fang Xiaole coughed slightly awkwardly, "It's late, let's all go home and rest, there's still a lot to do tomorrow."

"Okay, back to it."

"I'm off then, bye!"

........

For the next two days, Fang Xiaole threw himself into intense program preparations.

Although the location for the recording of the show had not yet been chosen, there was still a lot of prep work to be done for a new variety show.

Fang Xiaole was both the chief planner and assistant director, he had the heaviest list on his shoulders, and he was even busier in the past two days.

Busy Friday, most of the early work was on track, and the two young guests were pretty much confirmed.

One is an old acquaintance, Xu Zhenzhen, who has been here for two consecutive editions of Super Challenge.

She is a young actress, just turned 18 this year, innocent and simple personality, good audience, and recently also has a schedule, the program team and her agent once contacted, the other very quickly agreed.

The other, Dong Xiaopeng, is also an actor, around 20 years old.

He was nominated as a film star in the Yun Hai Film Festival and won the Best Film Award in a foreign film festival.

The invitation to Dong Xiaopeng was a difficult one, as his agent refused at first because he thought that "The Life of Longing" was an indifferent program and the remuneration was not high enough.

Fortunately, Hong Sanshi and He Tong have a wide range of contacts, and they are familiar with Dong Xiaopeng, so after some mediation and luring, Dong Xiaopeng finally agreed to the invitation of the program.

In this way, everything was ready, only waiting for the location of the farmhouse to be decided.

Zhang Zhiqin quickly booked a ticket to go to South Shuangbanna on Sunday, and this time it was just Fang Xiaole and the two of them, if the location was confirmed, the troops would follow behind.

"Fang, how is the new show preparing?"

At noon on Saturday, Fang Xiaole received a call from Li Guan.

"Director Li, it's still going well, tomorrow Zhang Zhiqin and I are going to inspect the recording location in South Shuangbanna."

"South Shuangbanna? The scenery is very nice, this time you and Xiao Zhang can travel once at public expense, if Su Yu knew she would definitely be envious."

Li Guan seemed to be in a good mood, making a rare joke, Fang Xiaole didn't know why Director Li always mentioned Su Yu in front of her lately, so she had to hehehe laugh and change the subject.

"By the way, Director Lee, is the third Super Challenge issue done late? How did it work out?"

Li Guan paused, his voice slightly odd.

"It's done, the show's on tonight, you won't forget it, will you?"

Oops!

Fang Xiaole just remembered, today is Saturday, it's the time for Super Challenge to air ah, lately, he's really too busy, he even forgot the time.

"How can I, I'm planning to take some time to check out the house in the afternoon and then go back to watch the show in the evening!"

Fang Xiaole quickly rounded up, fearing that Director Li might misunderstand his forgetfulness.

"Looking at the house?" Li Guan asked strangely.

"I'm planning to rent a house closer to Taoli, I've been too busy lately to make it, so I'm free this afternoon, and I've made an appointment with an agent to take a look."

Fang Xiaole had received his salary in the first few days, and for most of the month he was billed according to his position as Deputy Head Planner, so the salary level had taken a bigger leap than before, and this gave him the strength to consider renting a house again.

"It's good to be closer to Taoli, but the rent around here isn't cheap, so if you have any difficulties, just ask, and I can help you figure out a way." Li Guan said.

"Thank you, Director Li."

"Okay, that's it."

Li Guan's side was also quite busy, and he quickly hung up the phone.

In the afternoon, Fang Xiaole left work early and went to an appointment with an intermediary, who showed him several sets of houses.

Every set he was quite satisfied, especially one in a neighborhood called Lan Heng Garden, a good neighborhood, spacious house, less than a kilometer from Apple Terrace, it was simply tailor-made for him.

Except for the price.

The Apple Terrace neighborhood was a busy commercial district, and a month's rent here would top Fang Xiaole's entire month's salary, and he really couldn't afford to give it up.

At last, Xiaole finally understood why Li Guan had asked if he had trouble renting an apartment, I dare say that Director Li had expected that he couldn't afford to rent an apartment around here!

But Li Guan had already helped herself a lot, and Fang Xiaole was too embarrassed to bother anyone else, so the matter of renting an apartment could only wait until she returned from South Shuangbanna.
