Chapter 899 House and Food
"Those people outside are about to go crazy. When are we going to release the news?" Jonathan sat by the window, looking towards West Midtown and said with a smile.
His current mood can only be described in two words; beautiful.
The success of West Midtown allowed him to revive the Astor family's reputation again.
Soon, the Astor family will regain the honor of the king of New York, and he wants to make this honor even more brilliant in the future.
"Excluding pre-sales, there are more than 6,000 units available for sale. Now we should consider the issue of price." Lawrence sat beside him a little bored.
This matter has little to do with him. If it has anything to do with it, it is probably that he took more than 200 units out of it at an internal price.
This is a small investment for him and Avril Lavigne, and it will be managed and leased in a unified way in the future.
After Elizabeth grows up, she can be in charge of these things. While accumulating experience, she also has pocket money.
Just two buildings.
That's right, the daughter of Lawrence and Avril Lavigne, also called Elizabeth.
Elizabeth M. Rockefeller, fortunately, the history of Laomei is very short, even the wealthy chaebols are only three or four generations old.
The naming is not like in Europe and other countries, where there are ten characters at every turn, starting with two lines...
There are more than 6,000 units, and Qiao Ansen is already considering how many of them belong to him.
But the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became. It seemed that more than half of it belonged to Li Zitao.
Facing Jonathan's resentful eyes, Li Zitao also had a headache.
What makes him like this is, what is the part of him supposed to do?
Sell it outright?
It's a good idea, but it comes from the love of land and houses in the bones of Chinese people, and he is a little bit reluctant.
But if he kept all of them, he would have to live in another apartment every day, and he would have to live in it for more than 20 years.
Besides, it's not that he has a problem with his head, he can't live in a luxurious castle or apartment, and he insists on living in an apartment that is not as big as his own toilet.
After asking Jonathan and Lawrence for their opinions, Li Zitao made a decision: "Except for hotel and commercial use, half of the rest will be sold, and the last one will be managed and rented out."
"No problem." Jonathan agreed. If all the houses were in his hands, it would put a lot of pressure on his funds.
Sell half, and hold the rest for long-term investment. Whether it is funds or his plan to revive the glory of the Astor family, both have been properly resolved.
"Ferlande, you are responsible for the notification. I have to go home for lunch." After discussing the business, let the executives below follow suit.
Amex will provide home buyers with assistance such as home loans this time.
After all, there are only a small number of people who can pay the full amount. Besides, any businessman will not choose to invest all his money in fixed real estate.
Unless it can create several times or dozens of times of profits for itself.
The period when house prices skyrocketed like a rocket has yet to come, so unless it is a large-scale investment, this era is much more profitable than real estate speculation.
Moreover, without the big players like foreign speculators, the housing prices of Laomei alone really can't go up much.
Even if it is placed in New York, after all, the population and economy are placed there.
Besides, money is still money now.
Like in the previous life, the experience of buying a house is not as good as struggling for half a lifetime. People will only think he is crazy if he tells it in this era.
Declining the two's invitation to celebrate together, Li Zitao arrived at home before lunch.
"Ms. Dylan, I'm Charlie...Nice to meet you." After greeting Dylan, the dinner table was also filled with delicious dishes.
"Let's try it together!" Li Zitao, the host, invited him.
Looking at the table full of familiar and unfamiliar dishes, Dylan could hardly move his eyes away, but he thought he needed to find some topics to distract his attention.
Finally, he pointed to the Boston lobster, which was almost as long as his forearm, and said, "This Boston lobster looks really fresh."
"Sir, it's actually a superb blue lobster from France,
It has been kept in the aquarium, and it was specially prepared by my wife to entertain you. "
Farandi lifted his 'invisibility' state, appeared behind Dylan inexplicably, and startled him by making a sudden noise.
"Thank you, Frankie." Mary waved to him, indicating that he is no longer needed here.
In fact, Farandi won't appear in front of them for too long. After all, the work of Dream Castle and Li's Apartment alone has kept him busy from morning until late at night.
Although the dream castle is far away in Los Angeles, the weekly lists, maintenance costs and all payment approvals must go through his hands.
To make sure that there is no problem, Farandi needs to spend a lot of time on statistics, comparisons and investigations to ensure that his master will not suffer losses.
This is a qualified butler, the one who manages hundreds of servants, and is nothing more than a senior servant.
Dylan didn't know how many times he had become speechless.
The same lobster, why must it be shipped from France, is it because it is blue?
In fact, when he took the first bite, he had already forgotten his stupid idea just now.
What kind of taste is it that makes him completely immersed in it.
There is no need for any dipping sauce or cooking techniques at all, just taste the original taste of seafood.
Dylan had already eaten a tong without knowing it.
It sounds like nothing, but you must know that the meat in this tongs is at least 2.5 catties.
Dylan, who was somewhat full, finally woke up from the food, and found that he was the only one eating at the table.
After the children gave some strange and reasonable expressions, Dylan's last trace of resistance was completely broken.
"The dignity that belongs to the teacher will no longer exist from today on." Dylan thought sadly.
If he had known that this would happen, he would definitely not pick up the tongs, let alone let himself be completely immersed in the delicious food, chewing and swallowing without image.
"Mr. Dylan, do you want another one?" Aiden held the lobster with one hand, easily tore off another large tongs from it and handed it to him.
"Okay." The instinct from his body made him agree, and at the same time he took the pliers...
After a meal, the lower abdomen, which was originally slightly bloated, has become a round ball.
Dylan quietly loosened the buttons to let his breathing flow again, and stood up from the chair with some difficulty.
"Sir, Ma'am, thank you very much for your hospitality..." He pressed his hand to his mouth, suppressing the rising urge.
After calming down, Dylan struggled and said, "I think it's time for me to leave. There are still things in school that I need to deal with."
"Of course, I'll send you off." Li Zitao asked Dan to prepare the car.
"No, no, I like to walk after meals, it speeds up digestion and keeps me healthy."
After finishing speaking, Dylan didn't dare to stay any longer, so he waved his hand with a forced smile, and quickly rushed to the elevator.
By the time he came out of the apartment, Dylan's mouth had bulged into a toad shape.
The moment he saw the trash can, Dylan ran towards it at a speed he had never seen in his life, and went 'wow'...
