Chapter 405: Unscrupulous black intermediary

"That's not okay. I have to make it clear later. In the future, don't just report anything to our office. Just publish the news. Regulate civil disputes. These things will not be ours."

"You said." Jiang Xi didn't pay attention to Fu Youcheng, but was trying to figure out: "Why is the money here disappearing?"

"Do you mean the rent?" Fu Youcheng said.

Jiang Xi nodded: "Yeah, I'm also wondering, why is the money missing?"

"I thought it was the tenant that the two ladies didn’t pay the rent, or the account number was wrong. But the family was normal in the first half of last year. Starting from the second half of the year, the landlord did not receive the rent. Why? Will we continue to renew the contract with Ms. Zhang and the others this year? Isn’t this a contradiction?

"Yes." Fu You established Ma nodded in agreement.

This is indeed the problem: "Sister, then do you think, why is it here?"

Jiang Xi slowly turned to Fu Youcheng: "Are you Holmes? The problems we can see right away are naturally visible to others, but there is no solution."

"Sister, could the money be broken into other channels and taken away by fraud gangs?" Fu Youcheng asked.

Jiang Xi thought about it seriously, and shook his head: "It's impossible. The account that keeps transferring money and making money can be suddenly changed by the fraud gang? Now that there is such a powerful technology, the world has long been messed up."

"The account didn't change, but the money disappeared. While insisting that the payment was made, while insisting that it was not received, how to solve it?

"Call the police." Jiang Xi whispered, "If you don't call the police yet, when will you call the police?"

"Sister, will the police handle these things?"

"Of course it will," Jiang Xi nodded, "I'm wondering, will there be a possibility that there is no contract between them?"

"Who owns the house lease contract?" Fu Youcheng asked: "The landlord did not deny that contract either."

"No, I mean, was it the contract? In fact, they didn’t sign it with the landlord. Do you remember Miss Zhang once said to ask the agency. She said to ask the agency? Say, they signed an agreement with an intermediary?"

Jiang Xi's words reminded Fu Youcheng.

"intermediary?"

Nowadays, many intermediary companies have begun to sign contracts with tenants on behalf of the landlord. In the early years, the intermediary was merely an intermediary. It would be good to face the landlord and the tenant face-to-face and collect commissions.

The current intermediary can replace the landlord and sign the contract with the tenant.

"It should be." Jiang Xi said, "I haven't rented a house before. Recently, my parents moved to live in a place close to us, so I knew that there was a choice."

Fu Youcheng nodded: "Yes, but the landlord must approve it?"

"Do you rent a house or live in your own house?" Jiang Xi asked suddenly.

Fu Youcheng was taken aback, and immediately smiled: "Of course it's renting a house. How expensive is the Han family in Dayundu? My goal in this life is to buy a house in Yundu. Alas, my distant dream can only be... dream."

"Uh……"

Jiang Xi didn't mean to talk about this topic, and instead asked: "So, how did you rent your house?"

Fu Youcheng said: "Of course it is a normal rent. I have lived there for several years. I have been living there for several years. I signed a contract with the landlord and the agency charged half a month's rent. That's it."

Jiang Xi knew it, "So, renting a house from an intermediary is only in recent years."

"Yes."

Fu Youcheng Cong asked again: "Sister, shall we report this matter?"

"Report it, otherwise, what are we doing today? This shouldn't be a special case. The report will alert the world." Jiang Xi whispered.

As he was talking, several uniformed policemen appeared, and they expected it to be called.

Fu Youcheng pulled Jiang Xi's sleeve: "Sister, the police here appeared quite quickly."

Jiang Xi stood up and saw a familiar face.

Fu Youcheng also followed forward and greeted several policemen first.

"Hello, police officers, we are the people's livelihood reporters of Chaohua News Agency. Today is our police report. There is a rented house upstairs. Now, something has happened."

Fu Youcheng took the initiative to speak, and the policeman at the head looked at Jiang Xi who followed and smiled.

Jiang Xi said: "What a coincidence, Officer Li, you are the one who came over."

"Yeah, you came here for an interview?" Officer Li also said politely.

Jiang Xi shook his head: "It was a citizen who called our office. There was no other way but to come and see. But now there are a lot of people on both sides, so my colleagues and I can only avoid them first, and we will help when you come follow up."

Fu You was overjoyed, unexpectedly Jiang Xi even knew the police.

He quickly said: "It's like this. The atmosphere on both sides of the scene has reached the point of tension. We can't mediate from it. The landlord has the elderly and children. If they want to do it, we can only stop the tenant. I am. It’s okay. It’s okay to be beaten twice, but Sister Xi is a girl after all. And in that case, we can’t persuade us, so we can only help call the police and escape."

In today’s situation, if you get injured, it’s not a work injury, right?

Jiang Xi smiled and said, "Would you like to listen to the information we know? Let me tell you objectively. You can ask questions after you go up, and you can understand things and the situation faster."

"There are reporters from Lao Xu." Officer Li smiled.

Jiang Xi told what she knew, and then asked: "So, we are now inferring that maybe the rent of the tenant, Miss Zhang, did not directly call the landlord."

"Current real estate intermediaries have a similar P2P model that prevailed in the past. Intermediary companies stock up on listings and rent out the landlord’s house for a long period of time at a rent higher than the market price. Usually it is five years. In this case, the landlord does not need it for five years. Worried about the loss of economic benefits caused by the vacancy of the house. After the long-term lease is to the intermediary company, the quarterly rent is paid by the intermediary company. During this period, the intermediary company will see the house on behalf of the landlord and rent it to the tenant from the previous face-to-face contract with the landlord. The case of a mortgage of one payment for three or a mortgage of two for three will become a deposit of one, or zero deposit, and one payment per month is possible. However, in this case, the intermediary company will use the tenant like a small loan company or The platform borrows for one year, which is one year’s rent. The rent paid by the tenant every month is actually repaying the loan."

Officer Li quickly and simply explained the situation, and Jiang Xi was a little far away.

"You mean, the intermediary company used the tenant's information and actually has already received one year's rent from the loan platform? And the rent paid by the tenant every month is actually repaying the loan!"

"Yes." Officer Li nodded.

Jiang Xi faintly felt a headache, "So, the rent received by the landlord is taken from the intermediary company. Then, if the intermediary company runs away, the landlord’s rent will naturally not be given. And during this period, the tenant must continue. Repay the monthly loan."

"Yes."

Officer Li confirmed: "From what you just explained about the situation of the household upstairs, you can basically determine that this is the case. In many cases, the tenant himself does not know who the landlord is. The homeowners met, and the agent signed the contract."

Jiang Xi understood and turned to look at Fu Youcheng: "Then this news must be reported to remind everyone to check the information carefully when renting a house, otherwise there will be problems."

Fu Youcheng nodded: "Okay, sister."

When the police arrived, the landlord and tenants finally calmed down completely. Everyone was afraid of the police, and no one wanted to leave a little shame on their files.

Miss Zhang immediately said: "Comrade police, we really paid the rent. These are all evidences that I paid the money. I paid it every month. They did not say that they did not pay, and they had to force us to move out. We moved out and did everything. We lived here with two girls. They did it too much."

The policeman said: "Miss Zhang, you signed your contract with an intermediary company, right?"

"I don't know. I only know that I pay the rent every month. As for them, they don't receive it. It's their business. What's my business? They harass me like that. I can call the police for self-defense, right?"

Ms. Zhang had a tough tone with anger. It was also too much harassment by the landlord and family and friends during this period, and she had reached the extreme of endurance with another tenant.

Officer Li waved his hand to let Miss Zhang calm down.

Go back and ask the landlord and his family: "Your house is rented to an agency, isn't it?"

The landlord stood up and said, "Yes, but the agency has sublet the house to Xiao Zhang. I went to the agency in the last quarter of last year. The agency hasn't paid the rent. I kept dragging on saying that the tenant has not paid yet. A girl who is unemployed and has no money for the time being, let’s make accommodations. But accommodations is now, and it’s been more than half a year. I said this house last year. If you can’t afford the rent, don’t rent it to Zhang. They still signed the renewal contract. It’s okay on the intermediary side, the house is not theirs after all, but I can’t, I have to collect the rent, and my family is waiting to get the money. How can I just forget it? The two of them are already dead After living for more than half a year, I have the right to take back the house and let it be rented by myself?"

Officer Li said: "So the most important housing agency, where is the person now? Why don't you find the agency to coordinate?"

"Can't find it, no one is there." The landlord waved and shook his head.

On the one hand, Ms. Zhang also said: "The agency company has been emptied. The original agency company is now being renovated. The phone that could be reached is no longer available. We can’t connect to WeChat, just can’t find someone, so we don’t have any. It's a way."

Officer Li said: "The intermediary is the culprit. It is not an exception like yours. There have been many incidents in this city in recent months. So, let's file a case first, and both of you will come back to the police station with me."

"Comrade police, can you let them move out quickly? My house is here. I haven't seen a cent of the rent since the second half of last year. I have the right to take it back, right? As for the intermediary, I have to catch the intermediary. People, that’s your police's business. After catching them, you can compensate them as you please. After all, the intermediary took their money, didn't they?" the landlord insisted.
