Chapter 33 Chapter 33 Lin Anran is getting swollen again!

After Lin Anran had his fun, he put his hat back on and walked forward happily.

That saying is so true. In this golden age, if you stand at the right vantage point, even a pig can fly to the sky!

She is now a millionaire pig who has become a millionaire, haha.

But Lin Anran was still full of excitement and hadn't vented it all. She thought about the people she knew, but couldn't find anyone who could share her happiness at the moment. If her grandparents were with her, she would definitely let them praise her to the sky and let her stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun. However, if she had a chance to be happy secretly, then she would be happy for a while longer. She could be happy even by herself.

"Aunt Li, Uncle Zhao, Uncle Ding, are you studying the stock market again?" Lin Anran came back to the villa and saw Aunt Li and the other two gathered in a circle, holding newspapers and studying the stock news. She smiled and asked closer.

Everyone saw the happiness that was emanating from Lin Anran. Her smile was so bright that it made people feel sweet.

Aunt Li's eyes lit up, and she pulled Lin Anran to sit in the empty chair next to her. "Xiao Lin, come sit down. Tell us how your stock sales went and how much did you make?"

"I won't go into specifics. Aunt Li, you can do the math." Lin Anran didn't give a direct answer. She'd made a lot of money in the stock market, so she hadn't planned to tell anyone from the beginning how much she'd actually earned. Most people could make tens of thousands, but what if they knew she'd made millions? She didn't intend to test people with money.

"Yes, we all earn almost that much." Aunt Li nodded after hearing this.

Lin Anran only has a fixed monthly salary, and one winning ticket can only buy 2,000 shares. On the surface, she will make tens of thousands of yuan. So far, except for Cheng Dacai and Boss Liu, no one knows that she has made 500,000 yuan from selling Phalaenopsis orchids. Oh, and Manager Huang, the bank manager, must also be included.

"By the way, have you agreed on when to sell the stocks?" Lin Anran turned the topic back to Aunt Li and the other two.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Li and the other two stopped staring at Lin Anran. What they cared about most was their own stocks. They wanted to make the most money, but were also afraid of losing money if the stock price fell, so they were hesitant.

Lin Anran took a look and said nothing more. She changed into work clothes and started working today. In the past few days, she and Aunt Li divided the cleaning areas and each was responsible for them. There were no mistakes in the work. When cleaning the windows, she looked at the villa garden outside the window and paused. Even though it was winter, Uncle Ding still took good care of the garden. Looking around, it was all green, and all the dead branches and leaves had been cleaned up. It was very friendly to the eyes.

Naturally, Lin Anran thought of the villa advertisement, the 300-square-meter garden. As a millionaire, she could own it now. She had more than 3 million in her bank card. After buying the villa, she could also buy several commercial houses for rent. She could be a landlady who lived a life of idleness and waiting to die, so why was she still working as a nanny cleaning windows?

No free phone? There were public phone booths on the street, all you had to do was insert coins. She had enough coins. She didn't need to make calls often. Oh, after buying a villa, it would be more convenient to install a phone there. She could afford that. The property management fees? She could afford that, too. She didn't need a housekeeper, a chef, or a nanny. She could go out and find good restaurants, do some housework occasionally, hire a housekeeper to come to the villa for a thorough cleaning every week, and she preferred to take care of the garden herself.

After buying a commercial house for rent, she can collect rent every month. Maybe the total rent in a month is higher than her current salary. She quit her nanny job and will not need to ask for leave to go wherever she wants in the future. She can go wherever she wants. By the way, she should get a driver's license and buy a car so that she won't have to squeeze into the bus when going out in the future.

Lin Anran looked at the lush green garden, her eyes gradually becoming firm. She decided that she wanted to resign.

But she didn't resign now. Half of this month had passed, and she planned to get this month's salary. In the last month of this year, she got a salary increase. Uncle Wang said her salary would increase to 600 yuan, so she had to get the 600 yuan no matter what. 600 yuan is also money, and it was the salary she earned through hard work.

She needs to make plans carefully.

Lin Anran has always been decisive in her actions. She made her decision that day and made her next plan before going to bed at night. Then, early the next morning, she found Uncle Wang when he was free and told him that she planned to resign after this month.

Uncle Wang's usually calm expression changed. He looked at Lin Anran in surprise and asked her, "Xiao Lin, are you sure you're going to quit after this month?"

"Yes, Uncle Wang, I want to resign. I will not slack off in the next half month." Lin Anran promised.

Uncle Wang wasn't worried about Lin Anran being lazy at work. Lin Anran's dedication to his job was unquestionable. He thought for a moment and then asked with concern, "Xiao Lin, have you found another job? Do you need me to help you find one?"

Lin Anran smiled gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Wang, but it's not necessary."

Uncle Wang was still very worried about her. He rarely asked again, "Xiao Lin, do you really not need help? If you encounter any difficulties, just tell me and I will definitely find a way for you."

"Actually, I made a lot of money in the stock market this time." Lin Anran revealed a little bit. It didn't matter whether Uncle Wang could guess it or not.

"But you..." Uncle Wang swallowed the rest of his words and looked at Lin Anran in surprise, "Xiao Lin, what about the Phalaenopsis orchid you sold?"

Lin Anran smiled slightly: "Yes, I sold it."

Uncle Wang had heard Aunt Li say that Lin Anran's Phalaenopsis orchid sold for 500 yuan, but in Uncle Wang's opinion, Lin Anran's Phalaenopsis orchid was definitely worth more than 500 yuan. Even if Lin Anran priced it at 5,000 yuan, there would definitely be someone willing to buy it. Uncle Wang looked at Lin Anran with a thoughtful look in his eyes. Perhaps, that Phalaenopsis orchid was worth more than 5,000 yuan...

"I see. Xiaolin, it's great that you have your own plans." Uncle Wang didn't ask any further questions. As a professional butler, he always knew when to say what. "But if you need help, you can come to me."

"By the way, Xiaolin, happy birthday."

Lin Anran was stunned. Oh, today was her birthday. She had been so busy these days that she had forgotten about it.

"Thank you, Uncle Wang. I accept your blessing." It was great that someone remembered her birthday. Lin Anran smiled with her eyes curved.

However, Uncle Wang's next words were: "Xiao Lin, Mr. Zhou asked me to ask you if he could call you. He wants to personally give you his blessing."

Lin Anran blinked: "...Mr. Zhou?"

Uncle Wang smiled professionally: "Yes, it's Mr. Zhou."

Lin Anran saw the unfamiliar yet familiar professional smile on Uncle Wang's face. She gritted her teeth secretly, thought for two seconds, and replied, "Okay, I want to thank him too."

Zhou Heyuan remembered her birthday. Wouldn't it be too cruel for her to ignore his kindness?

Uncle Wang smiled and said, "Okay, Xiaolin, you can call Mr. Zhou now. Here's his number. I'll be busy first."

Lin Anran held the small piece of paper and said silently: "..."

Well, Lin Anran was in a subtle and complicated mood, but also a little happy. In the past, when she met such a suitor, she would never think about whether her rejection would be too cruel. She would cut off the relationship when necessary and not leave room for others to imagine. But she was not like that with Zhou Heyuan.

So, she was indeed seduced by the male sex appeal.

Lin Anran rubbed her cheeks and thought about a question - does she like Zhou Heyuan?

It’s not that she likes him for now, but she admires this man.

In fact, she didn't need to think too much, just follow her heart and act. Since she agreed to call Zhou Heyuan, then she should call him. Why be so hesitant? Or, wouldn't it be better to just enjoy Zhou Heyuan's pursuit?

Lin Anran didn't intend to give up on love. She had been single in her previous life. It wasn't that she had never met outstanding boys who pursued her, but the timing was not right. She spent more time accompanying her aging and sick grandparents and had no time to spend with irrelevant outsiders.

Now she is well fed and the whole family is not hungry. In addition to making money, she can also spend this good time talking about love and relaxing her body and mind. If they like each other, they can stay together, and if they don't like each other, they can break up. It is a very simple thing and not complicated.

Lin Anran dialed the phone in a relaxed manner. She spoke in a brisk tone, "Mr. Zhou?"

Zhou Heyuan's gentle and pleasant voice came from the other end of the phone: "Xiao Lin, happy birthday."

"Thank you! I received your blessing." Lin Anran was truly happy, and she was happy to share her happiness with him. "Mr. Zhou, I remember it's your birthday tomorrow. I wish you a happy birthday in advance."

Zhou Heyuan chuckled: "Thank you, I received it. Do you have any gift you want?"

"The gift I want?" Lin Anran was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered the plan she made last night and laughed out loud, "Yes, I have already decided what birthday gift to buy myself."

She had originally planned to buy a villa and a house today, and today happened to be her birthday. Isn't this a coincidence? She wants to give herself a big villa and several commercial houses as birthday gifts. Hehehe, that's wonderful!

"I wish you get what you want." Zhou Heyuan said.

Lin Anran was delighted to hear this, and his voice was filled with laughter: "Of course."

Zhou Heyuan: "I sent some books back. I wonder if you would like them."

Lin Anran subconsciously said: "Books again..."

"You don't like books?" Zhou Heyuan asked quickly.

"No, I like it. I like books that can be read for free even more." Lin Anran came back to her senses. She might not have enough time to finish reading all the books Zhou Heyuan bought.

"If you are willing to accept them, those books are for you."

"I can't accept those books, but I can borrow them from you." Lin Anran said with a smile. Some original books bought from abroad are very expensive, so she would not accept them for no reason. She is a millionaire now and can buy them with her own money, but she does not have as many channels to buy books as Zhou Heyuan.

Zhou Heyuan on the other end of the phone was quiet for a moment. He was keenly aware of Lin Anran's slight change and said, "You can borrow books from me anytime."

"Well, thank you, Mr. Zhou, I wish you all the best, I'm going to hang up now," Lin Anran thought for a moment and finally added, "I hope you receive the birthday present you like, bye." But she would not prepare a gift for him. The books that Zhou Heyuan sent back could not be considered birthday gifts for her.

This way they were even, which was great. She didn't have to think about how to return the favor, especially since they weren't at that stage yet.

"...Bye, Xiaolin."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Anran curved her lips and smiled. This call felt really good. Zhou Heyuan understood what people said and would not force his ideas on her. He knew how to respect others, which was one of his great advantages.

"Xiao Lin, it's your birthday today. If you want to move your vacation to today, that's fine. I'll take care of cleaning the villa."

As soon as Lin Anran walked into the kitchen, Aunt Li immediately said to her.

Chef Zhao brought a bowl of hot noodles and said with a smile: "Xiao Lin, give me a bowl of longevity noodles. It will make you live longer and healthier."

"Xiao Lin, this is a new book I borrowed. I pestered the owner for a long time before he was willing to lend it to me. You read it first, and I'll read it after you finish. Then we can discuss the contents of the book together." Uncle Ding took out a book on orchid cultivation.

Lin Anran's eyes instantly became moist. "Thank you, Aunt Li, thank you, Uncle Zhao, thank you, Uncle Ding," she sniffed and said with a grin, "Today is my birthday, and I'm the eldest, so I'm going to advise you once again, and for the last time, to sell your stocks early, so you don't end up losing everything."

Aunt Li, Chef Zhao, and Uncle Ding: "..."

“Puff!”

Everyone laughed.

"Xiao Lin, we know you are worried about us. You should not worry too much." Aunt Li patted Lin Anran's shoulder and said.

Chef Zhao was even more straightforward: "Xiao Lin, Uncle Wang also reminded us this morning that we plan to sell the stocks in the next two days."

Uncle Ding nodded in agreement.

Lin Anran didn't mind at all that people didn't believe her. She was a novice stock investor. If she hadn't relied on her memory to cheat, she would never have dared to touch the stocks so easily. Stocks can make people rich, but only a few people are lucky. She is not one of the few. She is a lucky person with cheats.

"Great!" Lin Anran sat down, holding the bowl of noodles and chopsticks, and happily started eating, slurping.

Lin Anran had moved her Sunday holiday to today. With the villa ad in her pocket, she headed straight for Jinyuan Villas. With Manager Huang acting as the go-between, the salesperson greeted her warmly, introducing the several unsold villas in Jinyuan Villas one by one. Then, he said, "Ms. Lin, we can go and see the available units now. If you're satisfied and want to pay in full, we'll handle the paperwork for you right away. There's a 10% discount for full payment."

"Is the discount only 10%?" Lin Anran was dissatisfied. She smiled brightly but said, "The villa is unfinished. I want to buy it and renovate it myself. If I pay in full, will I get a 30% discount?"

The villa salesperson's eyes widened a little, but she was very professional and immediately returned to her warm smile: "Ms. Lin, you are joking. Our villa is only 10% off."

"Well, really?" Lin Anran said without comment, and then said, "Let's go take a look at these rough-finished villas first."

"Okay, Miss Lin, please come in." The villa salesperson immediately invited Lin Anran to get on the sightseeing bus.

Jinyuan Villa only has single-family villas. Jinyuan Villa has a more advantageous location than Nanfang Garden. It is right in the city center, with a more beautiful environment and excellent supporting facilities.

Lin Anran looked at six villas in a row. They were all unfinished houses with the same interior. It was impossible to comment on whether they looked good or not. What she looked at was the area of the house and the size of the garden.

"...This villa covers an area of 300 square meters, and the front and back yards add up to 300 square meters. The 300 square meters of yard are free." The villa salesperson introduced while silently observing Lin Anran's expression. But how could Lin Anran, who always kept a low profile when doing big things, let her see her preferences?

Free gift?

Lin Anran didn't believe what the real estate developer said. The money for the yard must have been included in the house price.

Lin Anran walked to the backyard of the villa. The backyard of the villa was larger than the front yard and was more suitable for planting flowers and grass. She asked, "How much is this villa per square meter?" She asked this question every time she came to a villa. Each villa had a different location and design, and the price was not fixed. There would be some small fluctuations.

For example, the villas with the best locations were bought by some wealthy people as soon as they were put on the market, and the remaining six villas were not sold because the villas themselves were not so satisfactory.

The villa that Lin Anran is looking at now is located in a relatively remote area in the entire villa area. She doesn't care about this. The more remote it is, the more convenient it is for her to plant flowers and plants. It doesn't matter to her whether she lives in the center of the villa or not. She doesn't need to rely on this to show her status. She is just a small fry.

"Four thousand per square meter, full payment of one million and two hundred thousand." Lin Anran turned his head and looked at the villa salesperson. "This villa is in a bad location, no one will buy it at five thousand. Am I right? Oh, I was right."

Villa salesperson: "...Ms. Lin."

Lin Anran said with a broad smile, "You were originally going to give me a 10% discount, but now you're giving me an 20% discount. Isn't that perfect? You won't lose money, and I won't have to put out too much money either. It's just an extra 10% discount."

Villa salesperson: “…”

Is this a question of a 10% discount? No, it's a question of 150,000!

Lin Anran's face was full of smiles. Fifteen thousand was certainly a lot. It was enough for her to buy another house in Southern Garden with full payment.

The villa salesperson really wanted to make this deal today. If she succeeded in winning over Lin Anran, she wouldn't have to worry about salary and commission this month. Lin Anran had the ability to buy a villa in full, but Lin Anran was not determined to buy it. She could leave at any time and look at other villas.

In the end, Lin Anran spent 1.23 million to buy a villa in the Jinyuan Villa District. She paid in full and went to handle the transfer procedures on the same day. After that, she went directly to Nanfang Garden to find Sister Pan to buy a house. She directly picked out ten houses of 69 square meters and bought them in full. She also paid off the mortgage on her first house, leaving her debt-free.

She swiped her card like crazy that day, and finally had more than 700,000 yuan left in her card. She had to use this money to pay for the future house renovation costs and her living expenses.

Sister Pan was stunned when she received Lin Anran's large order, but she quickly helped with the transfer procedures. "Ms. Lin, are you still planning to contact Brother Lu's renovation team to help you decorate your house?"

Lin Anran nodded: "Well, Brother Lu and his team did a good job decorating my first house, but the decoration of these ten houses doesn't need to be so exquisite. The decoration style should be simpler."

During the time when Lin Anran was speculating in stocks, she did not forget her first house. Every few days, she would go to inspect it accompanied by Sister Pan. Generally speaking, she was very satisfied. The decoration team did not fool her. She was satisfied with the first cooperation, and she wanted to continue to look for Brother Lu's decoration team for the second cooperation.

As for the decoration of the villa, she still needs to think about it first. She plans to live in the villa permanently in the future, so it must be decorated to her liking, especially how to develop the garden. She has not figured out the idea yet.

Sister Pan didn’t know that before Lin Anran came to Nanfang Garden, she also went to Jinyuan Villa, otherwise she would be even more shocked. Although she was shocked now, she secretly sighed and envied in her heart that Miss Lin was really rich.

Before going back, Lin Anran went to see her first house. Brother Lu and his team had been renovating it for almost a month. According to the time on the contract, it would take more than a month. Even if the house was renovated, she would have to wait for the smell to dissipate before she could move in, which would take several months.

Lin Anran pinched her chin and thought, after resigning at the end of the month, should she rent a house or stay in a hotel?

She really doesn't spend money easily. Before she left, she was a millionaire. Now she has less than a million in her card balance, and she continues to spend money. She really spends money like water.

Lin Anran wants to make money again. She wants to have a million yuan deposit in her bank card so that she can feel good every day.

"Sister Pan, these ten houses should be renovated as soon as possible. Simple decoration will be done in one month, right?" Lin Anran asked Sister Pan who was accompanying her to look at houses.

Ms. Pan immediately replied, "Yes, the house will be simply decorated in a month, and after three or four months, it can be moved in or rented out. Our property management also provides rental services."

Lin Anran nodded and said, "I want to see the renovated house as soon as possible."

If the renovation is completed earlier, she can rent out the house earlier in the future, so that she can collect rent earlier. The monthly rent will make her card balance more abundant.

Sister Pan said, "Okay, Miss Lin."

Lin Anran thought of her villa again. It would take at least a year for her to move in after the villa was renovated.

Her garden!

Lin Anran: “…”

This is the bad thing about buying a new villa. It was a mistake. She was still too young and didn't think it through. Now that 1.23 million has been transferred, the Real Estate Bureau has done the registration, and she will be able to get the house title in a few days.

Lin Anran scratched her head. Why hadn't she thought of this before? A second-hand villa would be even better. She could just buy it and move in. She only thought that she had a connection with the villa advertisement, and without even turning back, she headed straight for the single-family villa.

No wonder people say impulse is the devil.

But today was her birthday, so what if she was a little impulsive? At worst, she could save up and buy another second-hand villa.

Lin Anran did not regret it. She originally thought that she was already very rich as a millionaire, but now she realized that she was not rich enough. If she were a multi-millionaire, she could easily buy a second villa!

Swell! She's swelled again!

At this moment, Lin Anran sincerely wanted to become a multi-millionaire. If she had 10 million in her card, she would at least buy a second-hand villa and move in directly. Second-hand villas were even cheaper.

Very good, the next goal is to become a multi-millionaire.

Lin Anran strode back with a heroic and confident look.

"Boss Lin! Boss Lin!"

Lin Anran heard the familiar shout and turned around to look for someone. Suddenly, she saw Cheng Dacai running towards her, waving excitedly. "Boss Lin!"

"Boss Cheng? Why are you here?" Lin Anran looked at Cheng Dacai in surprise.

Cheng Dacai explained, "Boss Lin, I came to see you for something urgent. I don't know your address or phone number, so I had no choice but to wait for you here. Didn't you meet Uncle He here before?"

Lin Anran suddenly realized: "Yes, so what's the urgent matter?"

"Boss Lin, let's find a place to talk." Cheng Dacai winked at Lin Anran.

Lin Anran immediately said, "Okay, let's go to the commercial street. There are coffee shops and teahouses with private rooms over there."

Cheng Dacai said without hesitation: "Let's go to the teahouse."

After the waiter served the tea and left, Cheng Dacai looked at the door to make sure no one could hear him, then lowered his voice and said, "Boss Lin, the price of the Phalaenopsis orchid you sold to Boss Liu has doubled!"

Lin Anran blinked: "One million?"

Cheng Dacai nodded vigorously. "Someone wanted to buy Boss Liu's Phalaenopsis, but Boss Liu naturally refused. You don't know, but now someone wants to buy your other orchids! That person asked Boss Liu for help, and Boss Liu found me. So, I'm in a hurry to tell you."

Lin Anran's eyes lit up instantly: "How much? One million?"

Her second-hand villa, isn’t it here?
