That Year the Flowers Bloomed 1981

Chapter 662 Teacher Ke Is Here

"Mr. Li, Ms. Wen, the real estate company has just sent a batch of information about properties for sale. Please check when you have time. I will notify them to look at the houses."

Perhaps the two red envelopes worked. For several consecutive days after the New Year, Secretary Lisa worked hard to help Li Ye find a house, and she was planning to keep Li Ye in San Francisco.

"Thank you, Lisa. I'll take a look first and notify you if there is a suitable one."

"Okay, call me anytime if you need me."

As a flower grower, he is naturally obsessed with "buying a house and buying land", so even if Li Ye can't come to San Francisco several times a year in the future, he still wants to buy a house of his own.

And on this point, Li Ye also got the support of Wen Leyu. The little girl has been grumbling for several days. The "internship period" is two months! How can you live in a hotel all day?

Even if you don't live there often, it's good to leave it there and let the price increase. Anyway, Li Ye said that the houses here will increase in price just like in Beijing.

When she bought the big courtyard on Fuyou Street, Wen Leyu felt pain for several days, but now she sees that the price of houses in Beijing changes every day, and she can calculate eight times in her mind every day.

It's great to do business with Li Ye and make money while lying down.

"Here, hurry up and pick one! They are all similar, don't be dazzled by the selection."

After Lisa went out, Li Ye handed the real estate album to Wen Leyu and let the future wife decide.

And Wen Leyu also looked at it with great interest.

Women are naturally picky about "home", especially when the price is hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars. It would be strange if Wen Leyu didn't pick a very satisfactory one.

But today, after seeing the photos of a house, Wen Leyu was firmly attracted.

Li Ye smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Did you finally see something satisfactory today?"

Wen Leyu nodded obediently, pursed his lips, and said, "It's just a little expensive."

"A little expensive? How expensive?"

Li Ye came over to take a look and felt that it was not expensive, more than two million US dollars.

But more than two million in 1986 is not the same as more than two million decades later.

However, this property is not a house, but a country estate covering more than one thousand acres, right between Silicon Valley and San Francisco, and the transportation is very convenient.

Li Ye flipped through the photos and couldn't help saying, "Hiss, you know what, it looks really good!"

This estate is just in a hilly area, one part of which is planted with grapes and other crops, and the other part retains the original appearance of the mountains and lawns. The surrounding scenery is very beautiful.

And this price is the price of a package sale, including several horses, several cars, more than 10,000 bottles of wine, and a helicopter.

For young people like Li Ye and Wen Leyu, this kind of scenic estate with large tracts of land belonging to "private territory" is very attractive.

After all, in the mainland at this time, the "big landlords" have disappeared for many years.

"Let's go and have a look!"

"Okay, I'll go and have a look tomorrow."

Wen Leyu excitedly called Lisa and asked her to make an appointment with the other party to see the house.

As long as the lighthouse people can make money, their service attitude is absolutely impeccable. The next morning, the real estate agent took Li Ye, Wen Leyu and others to the place called "Crappo Manor".

Jeff didn't understand the market in Silicon Valley, so he asked Gary to come and help.

On the way, Gary said to Li Ye: "I investigated yesterday. The owner of this manor invested in two projects in Silicon Valley last year, all of which failed, so he is in urgent need of funds now, and the offer of 2.3 million is not low."

Li Ye smiled and said: "Okay, I am only responsible for seeing if the house is satisfactory. Regarding the price, I would like to trouble Jeff to help talk about it. Of course, I will pay according to the custom of the lighthouse."

"Of course, I am happy to serve."

The lighthouse people will not be embarrassed to talk about money. Gary believes that he has helped Li Ye save money, so it is reasonable for Li Ye to pay.

When Li Ye and others arrived, the owner of the manor, Mr. Crapo, was already waiting at the door of the manor.

There was a fence outside the Crapo Manor, marking the boundaries of the private territory, so it was not easy to enter without the other party's permission.

"Oh, are you from Hong Kong Island? My father has been to the Far East and often told me about that beautiful land when I was a child."

"Two million and three hundred thousand can't be lower. I have put in twenty years of hard work in this manor. I can confidently say that there is no more beautiful manor in San Francisco than mine."

The old man was very talkative and did not discriminate against Li Ye and Wen Leyu's skin color, but he was very stubborn about the price.

Li Ye smiled and said, "Which is more beautiful here than the Philoli Manor?"

"Oh, young man, your joke is not funny. More than two million dollars is not enough to buy Philoli."

The old man smiled, but he was not angry. After all, the Philoli Manor was later called one of the most beautiful country manors in the United States in the 20th century. Later, it became famous all over the world because of the meeting between the two giants of the East and West.

But to be fair, the old man's manor is indeed very beautiful, because he only pursues beauty. He didn't plan to make money by growing grapes.

Li Ye looked at the crop area that was no more than one-third, and a stream that had been specially changed in direction, and he could guess that the financial situation of the manor must not be very good.

However, since we bought this kind of manor, we naturally cannot just consider the economic account.

If we only consider the income, Li Ye only comes a few times a year, and he has to lose money every year to pay the workers' wages, plus all kinds of messy taxes, just to exchange for a few thousand bottles of wine, it is not cost-effective no matter how we calculate it.

But if family and friends occasionally come to the Lighthouse and invite them to stay in the manor for a while, ride horses, shoot targets, and fish in their spare time, then the emotional value provided cannot be measured by money.

After all, he is the youngest rich man in Asia. Without a manor, it is not convenient to entertain certain guests.

In the end, Li Ye only picked out the problem that the manor's house was too old, and the rest was left to Gary to discuss.

Wen Leyu and Fu Yiru have already begun to communicate with the horses in the stable.

Seeing Li Ye coming over, Wen Leyu asked with a smile: "How did the talk go?"

Li Ye smiled and said: "The old man is short of money, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Wen Leyu smiled and said: "Then can we find someone to clean the room? Watching the sunset here must be more beautiful than in the hotel."

Li Ye nodded and said: "You and Xiaoruo will go and assign the rooms later. Aunt Ke and Uncle Wen's, my mother's, my sister's, my eldest brother and his wife's. You will be busy."

Wen Leyu blinked and said in surprise: "My parents' room? My mother's room Why are they here?"

Li Ye smiled and said, "They will come eventually. Do we have to hide the fact that we bought a house from them?"

Wen Leyu curled her lips and said, "It's okay to hide it. If they really come and hold a meeting to recall the past, can you bear their nagging?"

Li Ye spread his hands, "Okay then! You have to hide it! It won't be my business then."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

Wen Leyu made a face and patted her chest with a smile, taking on the responsibility.

"."

But Wen Leyu was a pessimist this time. A few days later, Teacher Ke really came.
