Chapter 151 I struck gold!
This story begins a week ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Fu Wenyuan have a habit of taking a walk in their neighborhood after dinner.
As the property manager, He Zhicheng has a general understanding of each household in the community.
This is basic professional conduct, after all, those who live here are all wealthy and influential people.
If I say something wrong or do something wrong, I could very well lose my job.
As for Fu Wenyuan, he knew that he was the former chairman of the Xia Kingdom Writers Association and had several very promising disciples, among whom his youngest disciple, Lin Xi, was the most favored.
It wasn't that he specifically investigated; Fu Wenyuan had made a special arrangement that Lin Xi, being his apprentice, could freely enter and leave the community from now on.
The astute He Zhicheng immediately realized that the old man favored his youngest apprentice the most, while his other apprentices did not receive this treatment.
Just then, he happened to run into the elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Fu, taking a stroll. He then said to them in a way that suited their tastes, "Mr. Fu, congratulations! From now on, you'll have someone to take care of you every day!"
Fu Wenyuan and Wu Jingshu were both taken aback. "What do you mean? Who will take care of my filial duties?"
He Zhicheng said with a smile, "Your little apprentice is here to look at houses today. He said he wants to buy one here."
Fu Wenyuan asked uncertainly, "Xiao Xi?"
"Yes, it's her."
Wu Jingshu asked excitedly, "Which one did she take a liking to?"
"It's not decided yet. They said they'd come and check out the prices first."
Fu Wenyuan's eyes lit up. "Come on, show me the houses near my home."
He Zhicheng immediately understood Fu Wenyuan's meaning and took him to the house closest to the Fu family.
Mr. and Mrs. Fu were very satisfied. Just this one location alone was better than all the other houses. They immediately decided to buy this one!
After returning home, Wu Jingshu, who was so happy she was almost out of her mind, started making a list. The house was empty, so she needed to help Xiaoxi buy some furniture and appliances and decorate it nicely.
After writing for a while, he felt the renovation wasn't quite right. "Old Fu, why don't we redo Xiaoxi's renovation?"
"That works, but I don't know what kind of girl she likes."
"I reckon, given Xiaoxi's personality, she doesn't like things that are too exaggerated..."
"I think we should go with our family's style..."
The two were having a lively discussion when Wu Jingshu remarked, "Isn't the renovation taking too long? I'd love for her to move in sooner."
Fu Wenyuan then realized, "Wait a minute, even if Xiaoxi buys a house here, she can't live there. It will be so inconvenient for her to go to school."
Wu Jingshu's eyes lit up. "Could it be that she's coming to the city to attend junior high school?"
Fu Wenyuan frowned. "No, she said she was going to Hongmin Middle School in town."
"Why don't you call and ask? By the way, don't call Xiaoxi. She deliberately didn't mention it. Let's just pretend we don't know. Ask Guiying instead."
"Row."
The first thing I asked when I called was, "Guiying, what's Xiaoxi doing?"
"Ah, studying in the room? Oh dear, this child is always so diligent."
"By the way, do you guys have any plans to move to the city?"
Lin Guiying on the other end was taken aback. "Yes, how did you know? Did Xiaoxi tell you?"
"You didn't say. Why are you thinking of moving to the city?"
"Xiaoxi passed the grade skipping exam and will go directly to Danbei No.1 Middle School to start her first year of high school. Our whole family is moving to the city. Xiaoxi said she wanted to live closer to you and would tell you after we moved to the city as a surprise. I didn't expect you to find out beforehand."
With their phones playing on speakerphone, Fu Wenyuan and Wu Jingshu excitedly held each other's hands.
"Guiying, don't tell her we know. Just pretend we don't know anything about it. Don't let the child's feelings go to waste."
"Good good."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Jingshu began to replan. "Old Fu, there's no time for a complete renovation. Let's get all the furniture and appliances ready in the next couple of days."
Also, we can't just give her the house directly; the child definitely won't want that. Knowing her personality, she'll feel indebted to us and rack her brains to find a way to reciprocate.
"What should we do then? Should we ask the property manager to come up with some excuse to collect a few hundred thousand?"
"No, Xiaoxi is so smart, she'll definitely figure it out."
The money can't be too much or too little. Go talk to He Zhicheng about this tomorrow…”
He Zhicheng readily agreed; it was just acting, which was his specialty.
However, he didn't expect that the elderly couple had already bought everything, and he was stunned when he opened the door.
Fortunately, he was clever enough to make up a plausible lie.
Lin Xi was indeed clever, but she didn't think much of it, simply attributing it to good luck.
The next morning, she secretly called Lin Dayuan to a corner.
"Dad, carry Grandma's bank card and ID card in a bit, let's go buy a house."
Lin Dayuan was a doting father to his daughter. Without saying a word, he casually pulled out a bank card and his ID card from under the TV cabinet.
Although I don't know why she had to do it secretly, she just did whatever her daughter asked, probably to give the old lady a surprise.
To my surprise, I was the one who was startled first.
"Xiao Xi, aren't we buying a house? Why are we at your master's house?"
"Dad, we'll live here from now on."
Lin Dayuan was so frightened that he turned around and left. He thought he was just buying an ordinary residential building.
Lin Xi grabbed him, "Dad, Dad, don't go yet, I'll take you to see it, I guarantee you'll like it."
"Xiaoxi, even if you like it a lot, it's too expensive."
Lin Xi held up her fingers and said, "Dad's cheap, only 1.3 million."
Lin Dayuan's lips twitched.
talent?
More than a million is only?
"Dad, it's definitely worth the price. You'll see for yourself. Let's go, if you don't like it after you see it, we won't buy it."
Then I secretly bought it myself.
Lin Dayuan thought that it wouldn't cost any money to take a look, and it would be good to broaden his horizons. Buying was out of the question; what kind of villa would his family of farmers live in?
After seeing it, he felt he had gotten a great deal. The place was not only luxuriously decorated, but also had all kinds of high-end furniture and appliances.
"Xiao Xi, is it really 1.3 million?"
"It's absolutely true, we were just lucky."
Lin Dayuan was tempted, but thought it was too expensive—it cost a million!
"How about we go home and discuss it again?"
"No need to discuss it, Dad, I'm telling you..."
She whispered something in Lin Dayuan's ear, telling him how high house prices would rise in the future, that houses could only appreciate in value, and that money would only depreciate if kept. She said that he could make money while lying down...
"Dad, believe me."
Trusting in his daughter's intelligence, Lin Dayuan nodded emphatically.
"purchase!"
After signing the contract and paying the money, Lin Dayuan still felt like he was dreaming.
"Dad, how's the shop you're looking at going?"
Lin Dayuan was stunned. "Huh?"
Do you have any suitable shops?
"I've chosen two places, both over 100 square meters, just like you said, one is 110 square meters and the other is 150 square meters."
"Dad, can you take me to see it?"
This one look was all it took; another 600,000 was lost.
Lin Xi went straight to the 150-square-meter shop and immediately asked if it could be sold.
