Chapter 829 Buying a House
"Is there anything going on with Bodhi?" Wei Xingyue asked worriedly.
When Shi Lei thought of the Ferryman, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. In the battle for power in the Eye of the Night, Wei Puti might very well become a pawn at the mercy of the Ferryman.
In that case, Wei Boti might actually be in some danger.
But Shi Lei couldn't tell Wei Xingyue these things. He could only shake his head and said with a smile: "It will be okay. She should be temporarily restricted in her freedom of life. When she calms down, she will be fine."
But Shi Lei's hesitation at that moment also let Wei Xingyue see some clues, and she asked worriedly: "Is everything okay?"
Shi Lei took Wei Xingyue into his arms and said, "It's really okay. Even if something happens, I will definitely make sure she is okay."
Wei Xingyue had absolute and unconditional trust in Shi Lei. When Shi Lei said this, she nodded, snuggled into Shi Lei's arms, and stopped asking questions.
After a while, Wei Xingyue raised her head and said to Shi Lei, "I will convene a meeting with them tomorrow to report to you the recent situation of the company."
"You are the chairman. Why are you reporting these things to me? Am I still worried about you?"
Wei Xingyue thought for a while and said, "That's fine. In fact, I have been a little busy recently with four markets opened in a row. I waste time reporting on work, which is not worth the gain."
"Well, you are so tired."
"Then why did you return to the capital?"
"I want to buy an apartment in the Imperial Capital."
"Why do you think of buying a house in the imperial capital again?"
"Even if the pop-up will not last too long, with the relationship built by the pop-up, we can't give up so easily. Therefore, even if one day we need to end the pop-up business, there will definitely be other projects to start. Didu A suite is better than living in Yu Banzhi’s house all the time, and you can’t always occupy someone else’s house, right?”
Wei Xingyue thought for a moment and said, "Well, to be honest, living in Yu Banzhi's house makes me feel a little uncomfortable sometimes."
Shi Lei's heart tightened slightly. This was indeed his negligence. He didn't even consider Wei Xingyue's feelings.
Holding Wei Xingyue tighter, Shi Lei said softly: "I'm sorry, it was my negligence."
"It's okay. I only feel a little uncomfortable occasionally. If you want to buy a house, what kind of house do you plan to buy? Real estate is also a good investment. In a place like the Imperial Capital, no matter how high the house prices are, they will still rise. However, I personally recommend that you buy a larger, ordinary commercial house. It has really hit the ceiling in recent years. It is not that it will not increase in value, but it will not do anything in the short term. But the economy will be different. As the city becomes more and more concentrated in super-large cities, more and more wealthy people in the country will gather in places like the imperial capital. Therefore, there will always be room for growth in luxury residences in urban centers.”
Shi Lei nodded and said: "Within the third ring road, it's about 100 million. Do you have anything to introduce?"
"One hundred million?" Wei Xingyue was slightly startled. She originally wanted to buy a villa between the Fourth and Fifth Ring Road, which would be worth twenty to thirty million, but now Shi Lei actually asked for one hundred million. .
Shi Lei nodded again, made up a reason, and said: "Some time ago in Bao'an, I had a lot of contact with Hong Kong Island and participated in an investment with a heavy gambling nature. The investment was not large, but the current income seems to be very considerable. It's a pity that it's a short-term move and won't last long. According to the current situation, it's not a big deal to earn 10 million within a year. However, I don't have that much cash on hand now, so I can only take out 20 million. You may need to find someone for a loan.”
Wei Xingyue understood that Shi Lei wanted to use the least amount of money to maximize the income because his future income was guaranteed.
This book is also very consistent with Wei Xingyue's understanding of investment.
She thought for a while and said: "I'll use the company's name as a guarantee for you. Double mortgage of real estate and shares, and getting a loan with zero down payment won't be a big problem. Our daily turnover is good now, and we have a very close relationship with the bank. I'll go Find someone to help you. You don’t have to worry about the loan, you just need to find the right property.”
After Wei Xingyue got off work, the two of them had a meal together. Thinking of Wei Xingyue's words about living in Yu Banzhi's house, he occasionally felt a little uncomfortable. Today, he mentioned Wei Puti and Yu Banzhi frequently, so Shi Lei simply took Wei Xingyue to the hotel to have a meal. Got a room.
Naturally, it was another night of lingering and lingering. After the two of them were exhausted, they didn't even bother to take a bath and fell asleep hugging each other.
The next day, Shi Lei asked someone, contacted an agency that specialized in high-end villas, and made an appointment to meet in Houhai.
The other party is a middle-aged man in his early forties. Unlike ordinary intermediaries, he looks more like a mature and prudent negotiator.
On the phone, when the man heard Shi Lei announcing his home address, he had some doubts that this was the owner of Qixuan and the flash mob that had caused a lot of controversy on the Internet in the past six months. When they met, he completely confirmed his suspicion.
"Hello Mr. Shi, this is Jiang Guoquan, whom we just contacted by phone."
Jiang Guoquan stood up and faced Shi Lei, who was looking around.
Shi Lei stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Jiang, have you been waiting for a long time?"
"No, no, I just arrived. No, the things I ordered haven't been served yet."
Shi Lei sat down, the waiter presented the drink list, and Shi Lei casually ordered a cup of coffee.
"I guessed it might be you on the phone, and when we met, it was you." Jiang Guoquan's words were a little unclear, but Shi Lei understood what he meant as soon as he heard it.
"My name is a little common. Are you familiar with our company's business, Mr. Jiang?"
"I am quite familiar with it, you see..." Jiang Guoquan didn't know whether he did it intentionally to get closer to each other, or he was a loyal user of flash, but he actually took out a flash power bank from his bag.
"I usually ride Qixuan to and from get off work because my home is not far from the company."
"Thank you for your support."
"Mr. Shi is polite, otherwise, let's talk about business directly."
Seeing Shi Lei nod, Jiang Guoquan immediately asked: "Mr. Shi wants to buy a property, right? I wonder if Mr. Shi has any specific requirements for this property."
Shi Lei also said seriously: "It doesn't need to be too big within the third ring road, within 500 square meters, and the total price should not exceed 100 million."
Even though Jiang Guoquan has always been engaged in high-end villas and high-end residences, he couldn't help but feel happy when he heard Shi Lei say 100 million. After all, for a house worth 100 million, the agency fee alone would be at least over 1 million, and the share he could get would be several hundred thousand. For him, this was another business that he could do without worrying about opening within half a year.
Without taking anything, Jiang Guoquan said, "I happen to have a more suitable villa on hand, right next to the West Third Ring Road, of course, inside. The owner's current offer is 15.8 million, and there is no problem in cutting off the decimal. As for the price, I will try my best to help Mr. Shi lower it a little."
Shi Lei nodded slightly. Jiang Guoquan knew that Shi Lei had no problem with the price and the location, so he continued to introduce, "The total area of the house is more than 480 square meters, with three floors above and below, and less than 200 square meters per floor. Half of the third floor is a terrace, and the other half is two guest rooms. In addition, there is a basement, which is made into a garage. The area of the basement is completely free."
