The main entrance of the Botian Building.

The gleaming floor tiles, the luxurious champagne-colored pillars, and the four bold characters "擘天大厦" (Botian Building) on ​​the entrance—even just standing at the door and looking up, one can feel the spirited and ambitious atmosphere emanating from them.

Although Yuan Zhuan didn't understand calligraphy, that didn't stop her from enjoying the spectacle.

It's obvious that this was handwritten and then carved by a craftsman. The handwriting reflects the person, so the person must be extraordinary.

"I... um..." Hu Jun's exclamation was cut short by Qi Ming's slap.

As you enter the lobby through the revolving door, a refreshing breeze greets you, accompanied by a pleasant floral fragrance that soothes the soul.

Hu Jun and Qi Ming remained silent, their eyes already overwhelmed by the sheer size of the hall. The five- or six-meter-long reception counter, the rows of brightly lit ceiling lights, the cloud-like ceiling design, and the giant, porcelain-like pillars... everything was breathtaking!

Young men and women came and went in a hurry, while middle-aged men and women who looked like leaders strode in with their entourage. Others were talking and drinking coffee on the sofas in the rest area. In short, everyone looked glamorous and had an impressive presence.

"Boss, I've heard so many languages. Everyone here is an elite," Hu Jun remarked softly.

"Are employees of listed companies in first-tier cities only elites who can get in?" Qi Ming laughed.

"That's true, but our Yuan's Security is pretty good too, and so is Yuan's Supermarket, they're not bad either." If only the boss could move Yuan's Security here, hehe.

Yuan Zhuan walked around and looked around, her mind racing. She had seen the building signs, and they seemed to belong mostly to financial companies, securities firms, and some electronics and software companies. They were all top domestic enterprises. It seemed somewhat out of place for Yuan's Security to move into this building.

but……

Yuan Zhuan saw the sign indicating the building and discovered there was even a basement restaurant, which he assumed was for the building's elites.

"Who are you? What do you want?" A security guard in a blue uniform walked over.

People who come in either go to the restaurant to eat or go back to the company. It's a bit strange that they keep looking around.

The three men were so imposing that the security guards kept observing them as they entered.

Qi Ming, who was being questioned, did not speak immediately, but looked at Yuan Zhuan.

Is your property manager here?

security guard:???

What do you need to do with their property manager?

Although puzzled, the tall and burly security guard still politely said, "Is there anything I can do for you? I can pass on your message."

"Rent an office," Yuan Zhuan stated his purpose.

Since we're already here, we naturally have to ask about the situation.

The security guard was surprised for a moment, but seeing how ordinary the three were dressed, he hesitated and looked them up and down, which made Qi Ming frown. "Go find your manager, what are you looking at!"

The security guard, who was nearly 1.8 meters tall, was still half a head shorter than Qi Ming, who was 1.85 meters tall. In addition, the aura that Qi Ming exuded when he was angry made the security guard take several steps back before he could regain his balance, and his hand subconsciously gripped the stun baton at his waist.

Seeing the security guard's actions, Hu Jun narrowed his phoenix eyes, exuding an aggressive aura, and stepped forward.

The security guard turned and ran away the next second.

Hu Jun: ...

"Do I look scary?" Looking at his bulging chest muscles under his black uniform and then at the security guard who had run away, Hu Jun began to question his life.

Qi Ming was very accommodating this time: "No, he's quite handsome."

Hu Jun grinned and raised his eyebrows smugly.

Yuan Zhuan laughed, "They're coming soon."

Hu Jun: ? ?

Sure enough, a few minutes later, the security guard who had run away earlier returned with a well-mannered, elite-looking young man whose slicked-back hair was shiny and slicked back.

He was accompanied by more than ten security guards, with the guard who had run away earlier trailing behind.

Those dozen or so tall security guards, looking quite menacing, were rather intimidating.

The female staff at the front desk had already noticed what was happening here. They had been stealing glances at Hu Jun and Qi Ming countless times, and were even blushing and whispering to each other from time to time. If this were in the postmodern era, they would probably have been secretly taking pictures with their phones.

When Wei Quansheng heard the security guard on duty say that a few people with a particularly strong presence had come to rent an office and looked like they were not to be trifled with, Wei Quansheng was giving a pre-shift briefing. Upon hearing this, he worried that they were going to cause trouble, so he brought his men over.

On one hand, it was to build momentum for himself and appear more assertive; on the other hand, it was to be on the safe side. After all, the two people on duty looked like they had some skills, so he was even less likely to come alone.

What if they're looking for trouble? If you get beaten up, even if you retaliate later, you'll still get beaten up.

As soon as they came out, they saw two tall, handsome men standing directly in their direction, their imposing presence and upright posture inspiring awe, just like elite soldiers.

"Hello, this is Wei Quansheng, the property manager. The staff on duty just told me that you are looking to rent an office here?"

Hu Jun, who was being questioned, nodded and stepped aside to make way for Yuan Zhuan. "Boss, this is the property manager."

Wei Quansheng: ...

His gaze shifted downwards, landing on Yuan Zhuan. Even though he was surprised, Wei Quansheng managed his expression well, at least Yuan Zhuan didn't feel offended. "Hello, boss, I am Wei Quansheng, the property manager. You wanted to see me?"

Yuan Zhuan was satisfied with the manager's attitude. After all, it was a large company. If the property manager under the group couldn't even manage his facial expressions, it would be a failure for Fu Hai Group.

Following Wei Quansheng into the property management department's meeting room, the nearly 200-square-meter round table conference room was empty. If it were rented out, it would bring in a large income, but it was simply allocated as the property management company's meeting room. This shows how wealthy and powerful the Fuhai Group is.

"Please have a seat, everyone." As we entered the conference room, the receptionist brought in coffee and snacks.

Wei Quansheng originally wanted to sit in the seat of honor, and his buttocks were already touching the stool when he met Yuan Zhuan's eyes. For some reason, he subconsciously lifted his buttocks and sat down opposite him.

After sitting down, I inwardly berated myself for this inexplicable unease and timidity, which made me lose the demeanor of a manager.

It has to be said that although this person is as short as a child, his presence is anything but small. I don't know where he comes from, but judging from his accent, he's not from the south; he's more likely from the north.

"I am Yuan Zhou. I own a security company and I'd like to rent three floors in the Botian Building for office space." Currently, the three companies are operating and require a considerable number of staff. She plans to put up a sign for Yuan's Security and house all the staff from the three companies there.

Three floors? Wei Quansheng raised his eyebrows in surprise. "How about I show you the floor?"

Before seeing the rental space, Qi Ming and Hu Jun didn't have a strong impression. But after touring all three floors, they were completely captivated by the understated luxury.

It wasn't until they received the detailed rent statement that Qi Ming and Hu Jun's minds, which had been somewhat dazed by the bustling city, finally cleared up.

150,000, 170,000, 210,000 – that's one month's rent. Prime floors 21, 22, 23.

Prices are clearly marked and not negotiable.

Quite tough!

As Wei Quansheng turned and left with a polite smile, Yuan Zhuan's anxiety did not dissipate. She thought what she had salvaged should be enough to buy the building, but after only looking at three floors, she felt that she would probably have to clear everything out, and even that might not be enough. The gold and silver jewelry was not worth much on the market and wouldn't fetch a good price.

After buying this building, she had no money left for anything else.

So, let's put the house purchase on hold for now.

A moment of annoyance flashed through my mind.

They've become a bit arrogant.

Before stricter policies are introduced, supermarkets are relocating to other areas, buying land and building their own facilities!
