Chapter 368 Villa Tricky
Lanshan Manor.
At the turn of spring and summer, Lanshan is full of trees, and the scenery seems to be three points more beautiful than Li Dong's last visit.
It was the first time for Li Dong to drive a Bentley, and he felt that the hand feel was not so good.
It used to take nearly forty minutes to go from the urban area to Lanshan Mountain, but this time it took half an hour to arrive at the gate of Lanshan Manor.
At the door, Li Dong was stopped by someone.
Residents here in Lanshan Manor are either rich or expensive, and security is also very strict. Although Li Dong drives a luxury car, he is not registered in the community, so naturally he will not be allowed to come in at will.
But Li Dong is the owner of the luxury car after all, and the security guard is very polite.
First, I asked Li Dong about his purpose, whether he was meeting a friend or was invited. If possible, I hope Li Dong can call his friend and ask his friend to call the security room.
After knowing that Li Dong came to see the house, and that he had become the owner of the No. 16 single-family villa, the security guard's attitude became more polite.
While helping Li Dong to register the license plate, he notified the companion next to him to modify the information in the database.
Perhaps because he was afraid that Li Dong would be unhappy if he waited in a hurry, the security guard in his thirties explained to Li Dong while letting Li Dong go: "Mr. It’s such a hassle. After our database is updated, next time you enter the community, the sensor system will automatically let you through.”
Li Dong nodded, and was about to drive in. After thinking for a while, he said, "There is a Jinbei van with the license plate number ××× behind me, and there are all my companions in it. Please help me to register."
The security guard guessed the general situation as soon as he heard it, nodded quickly and said: "This is no problem, we will record it into the system when the car arrives."
Li Dong thanked him, and then drove into the community.
As soon as he left, the security guard who had just talked to Li Dong said with emotion: "It seems that another rich man has come to our community, and he still follows the bodyguard when he goes out."
Another security guard who was recording information at the security booth said with a smile: "Don't even think about it. Is there anyone who is short of money who can afford a single-family villa? Don't say you don't know who lived in villa No. 16 before, but who can afford it?" With the house in hand, do you think this Mr. Li is a simple person?"
"That's true, but I heard that the old man of the Chen family has fallen..."
"cough cough,
These words are not for us to talk about! "
"Yes, yes, I almost made a mistake, let's not talk about it. Let's talk about Mr. Li, is there a rich man with the surname Li in Pingchuan? You have a lot of knowledge, give me a check mark, and save me from making mistakes in the future..."
The security guard in the security booth was about to speak when a silver-white Jinbei van slowly drove over.
The two glanced at the license plate, then looked inside the car, then nodded to each other and let the van pass.
As soon as the van left, the security guard standing outside said again, "It seems that they are really fierce. I took a look and found five people with better equipment than us. Looking at the appearance of these people, none of them are soft persimmons. Look at them. Come on, Mr. Li's status is not low."
The other person in the security booth didn't speak, but stared at the surveillance video.
Although Li Dong said that these people were his companions, and they roughly guessed that they were his bodyguards, it was the first time they came here after all, so the security guard was not too relieved.
There are quite a few noble people living in Lanshan Manor, and if something goes wrong, they can't afford it.
The security guard was slightly relieved when he saw Li Dong's car entered the villa, the van stopped outside the villa, and no one got out of the car.
Then the two continued to chat about Li Dong's identity, guessing for a while whether Li Dong was the rich second generation, and then guessing whether Li Dong was someone with Chen Rui's status...
...
How did the security guard guess that Li Dong didn't care, so he stopped the car in the yard of the villa, and Li Dong looked around at the villa's environment.
The entire villa is divided into three floors, and there is actually another floor underneath, which is an underground garage.
Li Dong was not in a hurry to look at the underground garage. He first entered the interior of the villa, which is the first floor.
On the first floor, Li Dong was here last time, and this time he just took a look.
The area of Chen Rui's villa is not small, each floor is about 180 square meters, and the most conspicuous part of the first floor is the hall.
The hall is actually a combination of living room and dining room. The living room and dining room alone are at least over 120 square meters.
Li Dong didn't care too much about the size of the hall, but he didn't agree with Chen Rui's taste.
I don't know what this guy thinks, the decorations and load-bearing pillars in the hall, this guy actually painted them in gold, it's okay to look at it once, but I feel a little tired after looking at it too much.
Usually looking at Chen Rui's clothes and taste, this guy is not the kind of upstart mentality, how could he think of turning these things into gold, Li Dong doesn't quite understand what Chen Rui thinks.
Li Dong didn't look at it too much, if he really didn't like it, he could find someone to reinstall it later.
The decorations were all thrown away, and the load-bearing columns were repainted. This is not a big project. Three to five days should be enough, and it won't waste too much time.
Next, Li Dong looked at other places on the first floor. In addition to the lobby, there was an independent bathroom, a kitchen, and three guest rooms on the rest of the first floor.
Li Dong opened the door and went into the guest room to have a look. There were all the things inside, including quilts and everything else. Judging from the furnishings, it should be used as a servant's room or a nanny's room.
After all, such a big villa cannot be cleaned up by a family. It is necessary to hire some cleaning and nanny.
Seeing this, Li Dong pondered for a while, whether he would also find a nanny and cleaner when he turned around. With such a big villa, he expected to clean it up by himself, so he would stop working in the future.
After watching the first floor, Li Dong went up to the second floor through the spiral staircase.
There are three bedrooms, a study, and a separate bathroom on the second floor.
Among the three bedrooms, one is the master bedroom, which is very large, with a small study room, a bathroom, and a large balcony.
Standing on the balcony of the bedroom, there is plenty of sunlight, and you can see the general situation inside Lanshan Manor through the balcony, and you can even faintly see the security booth at the door.
Li Dong looked around in the master bedroom and felt quite satisfied.
But looking at the quilt covers on the bed and some things that Chen Rui didn't take away, Li Dong scratched his head a little, and couldn't help thinking that Chen Rui might bring all kinds of women here to fool around, Li Dong suddenly didn't want to live here room up.
Thinking that there were still three floors, Li Dong went up to the third floor again.
The layout of the third floor is similar to that of the second floor, but there are only two bedrooms on the third floor, and there is an extra activity hall, which contains some equipment for exercising, which seems to be a place for Chen Rui to exercise his body.
Li Dong is quite satisfied with this, he doesn't have much time to be active now.
It is not convenient to exercise in the company or outside, and at home because parents are at home, there are people downstairs, so Li Dong can't exercise.
In the past two years, he has clearly noticed some changes in his body. Although he hasn't gained weight or been sick, compared to his high school days, Li Dong's physical strength has dropped a lot now.
Li Dong looked at the event hall for a while, and felt that it was not bad, and the equipment was complete, so he didn't need to buy any more.
The things Chen Rui used were not bad, and the things for exercising were not personal items. Li Dong didn't dislike them, so they could keep them in the activity hall.
However, Li Dong planned to replace all other personal items in the villa with new ones, and he had to find someone to clean them thoroughly.
Li Dong is not going to live on the second floor anymore. There is a bedroom on the third floor that is similar in layout to the second floor. The bathroom in the room looks bigger than the second floor. If he moves here in the future, he will live on the third floor.
Then Li Dong went to the top floor to take a look. The large terrace looked very good and the view was very wide.
However, Chen Rui probably didn't like the terrace very much. The terrace was empty, except for some dust and fallen leaves, there was nothing else.
Li Dong thought about it for a while, and then asked someone to arrange it on the terrace. It would be nice to invite a few friends over for barbecue in summer.
The Jiangbei side is no different from the coastal areas. There are no natural disasters such as typhoons and storms. The terrace can be simply arranged. If it is placed in the coastal area, sometimes a random typhoon will blow everything on the terrace.
After reading this, Li Dong went downstairs again.
There is also a swimming pool outside the villa, but there is no water in it. It seems that no one has used it for a long time. The inside is a bit dirty. It will be summer soon. It seems that it is impossible not to ask someone to clean it.
After taking a quick look at the upper space of the villa, Li Dong was very satisfied.
Buying this villa for five million is definitely a big profit. If Chen Rui is not in a hurry, the villa will be sold slowly, and it is not surprising at all to sell for seven or eight million.
This is not counting the decoration, Chen Rui spent more than 3 million yuan on the decoration, that is to say, the overall cost of this villa is probably more than 10 million now.
Thinking of this, Li Dong couldn't help shaking his head. He knew that this villa belonged to Chen Rui. If he said that the Chen family and his son were not greedy, he wouldn't believe it even if he killed Li Dong.
Chen Rui has not been in business for a long time, and most of the money has been invested in Chengrui Real Estate. Even if Chen Rui bought this villa earlier, the cost would not be less than 8 million.
Where did the eight million come from? You can figure it out if you think about it.
Chen Rui's old man was able to escape unscathed. I have to say that he was very lucky. No wonder Chen Rui didn't dare to stay in Jiangbei. His buttocks were not clean.
After thinking about it, Li Dong didn't bother to care about it.
No matter what, the Chen family's father and son are no longer in Jiangbei, and Chen Rui's father's official position is gone. This is the biggest punishment for them.
Without thinking about it, Li Dong opened the door of the underground garage, went in and took a look.
The underground garage has a large area, but it is empty and dark inside.
Li Dong found the switch and turned on the light, but he didn't know if it was due to environmental influences or Chen Rui's intention, the light was also very dim, and it was really intrusive to drive into the garage alone at night.
He also thought of a place specially marked out in the yard. Li Dong knew that Chen Rui shouldn't use the garage very much, and the cars should be parked in the yard most of the time.
But Li Dong wants to plant some flowers and plants in the yard, it seems that he will have to remodel the garage later.
At least the lights were about to be changed, it was so dim, Li Dong was really afraid that he would drive into the garage and have an accident.
Li Dong didn't stay in the garage for long, and Li Dong walked out of the garage quickly.
But after walking for a while, Li Dong frowned slightly again. The garage lights were so dim, didn't Chen Rui plan to park there in the first place?
Otherwise, if a normal person has a garage, he must park his car in the garage. After all, parking in the yard is a bit ugly and takes up space.
Li Dong always felt that something was wrong, and thought of the last time Chen Rui sold the villa to him, it seemed that he specially told Li Dong that the villa didn't need to be remodeled, it can be done now.
Is there really something tricky?
Li Dong had read a lot of online novels and news reports in his previous life, and there seemed to be precedents for these things.
Could it be that the Chen family's father and son also followed the trend this time?
Of course, there are still some problems that Li Dong didn't want to understand, but he doesn't bother to think about it for the time being.
Regardless of whether it is tricky or not, you will know when you look back and check it yourself.
Now I'm alone, the garage is so dark, I can't see anything, wait for someone to clean it and change the lights. (To be continued.)
