Chapter 552: A small show with remarkable results
Jiang Pengfei took a deep breath, suppressed his irritability, and looked at Zhang Anren beside him, "Xiao Zhang, you are a teaching assistant at such a young age, and you can also buy a house in Shanghai, which is quite good. I forgot to ask you just now, where did you buy the house?"
Zhang Anren likes to guess other people's intentions. Judging from Jiang Pengfei's attitude, he knows nothing about Chen An and is very dissatisfied with him.
Moreover, the Northeast region is poorer than my hometown, not to mention the frequent car changes. I was so stupid that I almost got fooled. This guy is probably not even as good as me. The last meeting might have been because of my previous confession, so Jiang Nansun wanted me to give up.
As for changing cars, it is even simpler. They try to show off their superiority in front of their parents, but they don’t realize that this behavior will be very embarrassing once it is exposed.
After figuring everything out, Zhang Anren felt superior and responded with a smile, "Pudong..."
"Pudong is great." Jiang Pengfei's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands in praise. After all, in Shanghai, Pudong has had the fastest rising housing prices in recent years.
“Where is Pudong?”
"Sanlin..."
Hearing this, Jiang Pengfei couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and disdainful, and asked with disdain, "Is it the outer ring?"
"It's right on the outer ring road." Zhang Anren had a smug look on his face. When he bought the house, he considered many aspects. Facts have proved that his choice was right. In just over a year, the house price has risen by more than 100,000 yuan.
"Although the house is a bit far away, you can be considered to have gained a foothold in Shanghai. It can be considered a decent start." Jiang Pengfei praised reluctantly, but his eyes were on Chen An, and the meaning was self-evident.
Chen An was not moved at all by this. He just wanted to eat melons.
Seeing Chen An's calm demeanor and his daughter looking at him lovingly, Jiang Pengfei was so annoyed that he turned to look at Wang Yongzheng and asked, "Xiao Wang, Daisy is a friend of your mother. Does that mean your family is abroad?"
"My family is in Italy, and I have been invited back to serve as a teaching assistant."
"Oh, have you bought a house in the country?" Jiang Pengfei asked with interest.
Wang Yongzheng said casually, "My family has always been paying attention to domestic houses and has considered investing in this area. If everything goes well when I return to China this time, I may consider buying a house in Shanghai for investment."
Jiang Pengfei's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and smiled, "You're right. Houses in Shanghai these years are definitely a good opportunity for investment. Let alone other things, the price of our old house has almost doubled. Now you can't buy it without tens of millions."
"The most important thing is that the location is good and it's comfortable and convenient to live in. If you need to buy a house, Xiao Wang, I will definitely give you the best advice."
Wang Yongzheng quickly climbed up the pole, "Thank you very much, uncle. I will definitely trouble you in the future."
Jiang Pengfei glanced at Zhang Anren and said, "Xiao Zhang, I think that instead of buying a house in the suburbs, you should buy a smaller one in the city. This way, it will be more convenient for you to commute to get off work and you won't have to waste time on the road."
Seeing Jiang Pengfei's wealthy and powerful look, Zhang Anren looked down on him but was secretly excited at the same time. As long as he could win over Jiang Nansun, he could work less for ten years. It would only take selling houses, which would be a piece of cake.
"Actually, Sanlin is very convenient in every way, and the area is large enough to live comfortably. The housing prices have also risen rapidly in the past year or so, but I will definitely consider your uncle's suggestion."
Seeing Jiang Pengfei's expression, Wang Yongzheng couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He would not miss such a good opportunity to kick Zhang Anren.
"I think what uncle said makes sense. When we buy a house, we can't just consider comfort, we also have to consider value. I think Teacher Zhang, you can consider selling the house in Sanlin and buying a smaller one near the school. This will be much more convenient."
"I feel a little sorry. If I had known that Teacher Zhang's house was so far away in the suburbs, I should have refused. The school has arranged a dormitory for me, so I would like to trouble Teacher Zhang to make room for me. However, I suggest that Teacher Zhang should put buying a car on the agenda. After all, it is not very convenient to squeeze into the subway every day."
Zhang Anren was very unhappy when he heard Wang Yongzheng's sarcastic words. Just as he was about to retort, he heard Chen An's voice beside him, and his heart shuddered.
"Nansun, is housing for teachers in your school so tight, or is the number of places limited?" Chen An asked with pretended curiosity.
"I really don't know about this." Jiang Nansun shook her head.
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Zhang Anren narrowed his eyes. He had not thought about it in this direction before, but with Chen An's unintentional reminder, he immediately realized the problem. Although there is more than one teaching assistant in the Department of Architecture, Professor Dong's status in the entire department is very high, at least higher than his own tutor.
More importantly, in a few months, it would be time for me to become a full-time teaching assistant. At this time, Wang Yongzheng was suddenly invited to return to China. Who knows what Wang Yongzheng is thinking, especially since he just said that if everything goes well, he might consider buying a house. If everything goes well, is there anything else to say?
Damn it, if it was just a suspected love rival before, Zhang Anren wouldn’t be that nervous, but now it’s not just a love rival, it has risen to the level of someone trying to steal his job.
You have to know how long he has been working diligently and cautiously in order to be able to become an assistant teacher. This is the most important life goal for him to gain a foothold in the Magic City, even before the eldest lady Jiang Nansun.
Noticing Zhang Anren's expression, Chen An thought to himself, is this what is right? It seems that Wang Yongzheng will have to suffer in the future. As the saying goes, you don't have to worry about thieves stealing, you have to worry about thieves thinking about it. Zhang Anren is not a gentleman.
As expected, Zhang Anren dropped a bombshell as soon as he opened his mouth. "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for reminding me. I will put these things on my agenda. By the way, I met the dormitory manager yesterday, and she complained to me that Mr. Wang often brings friends to the dormitory to have parties, which has a very bad influence."
"I think Mr. Wang should be careful about the impact. After all, as teaching assistants, we have the obligation to assist the professor in teaching. We should not be too willful, such as taking female students to play around for no reason, so that they will be late for class. We should learn from this."
"You can't act recklessly just because you have a good family background and some connections. This will make Professor Dong lose face." He looked at Jiang Nansun and reminded her, "You may not know this, but this person was invited back by Professor Dong. If you apply for Professor Dong's doctoral program, you may become a senior and junior brother in the future."
"He is actually Professor Dong's teaching assistant?" Jiang Nansun looked at Wang Yongzheng speechlessly.
"In fact, my advisor, Professor Yang, is also very famous in the industry. If you want to apply, I can help you ask."
Jiang Nansun smiled at Zhang Anren and said, "Thank you for your reminder, senior. I will consider it carefully."
