227 Chapter 227: When I Was Young, I Must Have Been a Dude
This is also the first batch of public housing in Merlo City, that is, low-rent housing.
As long as you are a citizen of Merlo City, you can apply for occupancy.
The first batch of public housing has 36 buildings, each with three floors, and each floor can accommodate four families. One set is more than 70 square meters, a total of 432 sets of public housing.
The reason why Aslan didn't build high-rise buildings was because the higher the floor, the higher the technical content, and specialized technical personnel were needed to keep an eye on it.
On the other hand, the public houses do not need to be well built. These public houses are completely owned by the lord Aslan, and trading is not allowed.
Therefore, in the future, people with better conditions will naturally go back to the new urban areas to buy higher and better houses.
The reason why Aslan only sees five-story buildings now is because of the convenience of going up and down, and the problem of water supply.
Now they don’t have the equipment that can lift their hands up to the fifth floor, and they rely entirely on manpower to lift the water up. If a building with more than ten floors is built and there is no elevator, they rely on two legs to go up and down on weekdays. It is estimated that there is no one on the top floor. willing to buy.
So the fifth floor is the most suitable floor.
Osborn shook his head, and immediately turned back from the thoughts of the public house, and said with a profiteer look on his face, "A good house should naturally have good furniture to set it off."
Knox and Diego nodded in unison.
"I know the owner of the furniture factory, and I can get furniture at the ex-factory price. I don't know if old Mr. Knox is interested." Osborne said quickly.
ps: I am so sorry that I continue to owe everyone in the fourth update.
Knox looked inscrutable at the moment. He used to be a nobleman in Kyoto. He had never seen any furniture, so he said disdainfully: "In a poor and remote area like the Merlot area, if there is any good furniture, you can just buy it. Well, it seems necessary to go to Billy City."
Hearing this, Osborn became impatient, and said angrily, "It's ok, anyway, our current furniture in Merlo City has been sold to many places outside the province of Merlox. It is famous for its exquisite and gorgeous workmanship. Since Mr. Knox doesn’t like the noble and luxurious series, I can’t do anything about it, but let me tell you in advance that in the furniture market in Billy City, more than 80% of the furniture is produced by our City of Merlot. .”
Knox's eyes widened subconsciously, he heard right!
Merlot City is so awesome, why he doesn't know anything about it.
Diego next to him added a sentence at the right time.
"It seems that the magic lamp is also produced in Merlot City."
"That's natural!" Osborne nodded proudly.
"Haha! It's the old man who is being rude. Let's go! Knight Osborne, I'll treat you to the Merlot Hotel for a meal after I finish watching the furniture." Knoxton changed his arrogance immediately and said very politely.
This is also a life skill that Knox has learned after living in the outer suburbs of Billy for more than ten years.
Many things can be solved by treating guests to a meal, and if they can’t be solved with one meal, treat them twice.
When he came to the furniture city, Knox was really shocked by the dazzling array of furniture in front of him.
For the first time, he knew that there are so many types of chairs.
Osborn greeted the boss of the Furniture City, who was Aslan's hired worker, and he got a commission on how much he sold every month, so he came up to greet and introduce him very politely.
"Mr. Knox is very rich, go directly to the sample room to see!"
Osborne said very proudly.
To be able to become a member of the Knight Guards of the City Lord's Mansion, each of the worst is a junior professional, and now it is still maintained at a scale of 100 people. They are assessed every month. If they fail the assessment for three consecutive months, they will be directly removed from the Knight Guards.
"It turned out that it was brought by Osborne Knight. I will definitely give you the most reasonable discount. This way please!"
Knox and his father were taken upstairs to the sample room. The so-called sample room is a room that has been decorated, and then the furniture prepared in advance or custom-made furniture is put away.
Originally, although the furniture in the downstairs hall was dazzling, at most it was a lot of furniture for Knox, but it was difficult to start with.
But in the sample room, the furniture is neatly arranged, and the furniture and the environment of the room are perfectly integrated.
"Awesome!" Diego muttered subconsciously.
Knox read it quickly, and the place where men buy things faster than women is just to close their eyes.
"The total price of the furniture in the six rooms, two living rooms, and one dining room is 5412 gold coins. If you erase the change, it will be 5400 gold coins." The boss took out his abacus and quickly gave the final price.
Knox is a bit silly, isn't this price too exaggerated.
More expensive than a house.
"You think the old man is going to blackmail the old man's money just to save his face, don't you?" Knox suddenly became angry.
The boss quickly explained: "The wood for these furniture is all high-quality life red cedar, which the lord entrusted to buy from Northland. Not to mention the processing fee, the cost of transporting here alone is more than one hundred gold coins. No matter how many thousands of gold coins are needed, we are just earning some hard work.”
Hearing that it was the redwood of life, Knoxton suddenly became energetic.
The Redwood of Life can only be found in the area where the forest elves are located. This kind of tree is very precious. It has a light fragrance when made into furniture, and it is anti-corrosion and insect-resistant. Back then, their family furniture was almost all made of Redwood of Life. , so he also understands something.
Knox bent down to check, and then sniffed the scent.
"It's really a living redwood."
"Ten for a fake!" The owner of the furniture city said very confidently.
"Okay, I bought it." Knox swiped the gold coins in the magic bank card with a big wave of his hand.
The magic bank card is a kind of magic equipment specially used to transfer coins. The money is stored in the magic warehouse in advance. As long as there are enough gold coins in the warehouse, the magic bank card can transfer the gold coins out immediately.
After a while, more than 5,000 gold coins appeared in front of the boss and fell all over the floor.
Both Osborn and the boss' eyes widened.
They have never seen this kind of magic props before. Could it be that the old guy in front of him is still a magician.
"You guys order, and then send the furniture to my new house. It must be arranged like the sample house." Knox said with a laugh.
Osborne hurriedly followed Knox and left. Afraid of watching any more, he couldn't help reaching out to touch two of them.
After the house was bought and the furniture was arranged, Knox took Osborne and Diego to the Metro Hotel for dinner with great enthusiasm.
Looking at the magnificent decoration of the Merlot Hotel, it is not much worse than Billy's Club.
In the past few days, Knox and his father have been eating here, spending dozens of gold coins every day.
Diego looked at Knox with strange eyes.
Why do I feel that when my uncle was young, he should be the legendary noble and playboy young master.
Don't treat money as money at all.
ps: I'm really sorry, there are still two changes today, and I owe everyone four changes and I can only continue to owe it.
