Chapter 126 Major Crisis

Liu Chengyu picked up the teapot, poured a cup for Chen Jingyang first, then filled his own cup, and laughed, "How can this be called robbery? The property certificate alone shows an area of ​​over 500 square meters, which is the real market price!"

Chen Jingyang scoffed: "You call this robbery? The price per unit is almost 400,000! And this is just a bare shell!"

Liu Chengyu wasn't in a hurry and explained unhurriedly, "It's a bare shell, but my house has a great location! It's the best location in the building, with a clear stream flowing through the courtyard. There are very few houses like it in the whole community, and it's even upstream!"

"Even if it were the Heavenly Palace of the Heavenly Emperor, it wouldn't work!" Chen Jingyang said disdainfully, "You can't do this!"

"Believe it or not, if I put this property up for sale, someone will be fighting over it in no time. I'd even pay twice as much and someone would still want it!"

"Come on, don't try to fool me. I've already done my research, the price per unit won't exceed 200,000!" Chen Jingyang laughed.

Liu Chengyu raised an eyebrow: "Did you include the 800-square-meter courtyard in your price per unit?"

Chen Jingyang slowly took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and said, "Liu Chengyu, everyone knows what the real estate market is like right now. Since you don't want to be stuck with unsold properties, don't give me any of that nonsense. I don't have much time, so let's not waste any more time."

"Sigh, alright!" Liu Chengyu sighed. He thought that after all the groundwork laid, Chen Jingyang would be eager to fall for the trick, but it seems that smart people are indeed not easy to fool.

"Then let's do it your way, 200,000. I'll round it down for you, you just need to pay one, is that alright?"

Chen Jingyang curled his lip: "Still expensive."

Liu Chengyu frowned incredulously and laughed, "This isn't like you! You think something's too expensive? Besides, didn't you already do your research? This time I really wasn't kidding you!"

A year ago, Chen Jingyang probably wouldn't have bothered arguing with Liu Chengyu, but now it's not an option; he really doesn't have that much money!

Chen Qishan kept his word and didn't give him a single penny of pocket money again.

Hua Hua has to stay at school, and the cost has almost doubled.

Although Zhang Pengfei's injury was recognized as a work-related injury, some expenses were not covered by insurance.

He had just paid Dou Qiaoyun's three-year membership fee at the rehabilitation center, spending nearly 3 million yuan.

He currently has less than a million in cash on hand. If Liu Chengyu knew that, he probably wouldn't have come to have dinner with him at all!

Are you kidding me? Someone with only a few hundred thousand yuan dares to buy a house worth 100 million yuan!

"Liu Chengyu." Chen Jingyang crossed his hands, pressing his two thumbs together, one above the other: "How about this, give me a 30% discount, and I'll transfer the money today."

"Pfft!" Liu Chengyu spat out the mouthful of tea he had just drunk: "How much? 30% off!"

He pulled out two tissues to wipe his mouth, threw the crumpled tissues aside, and stood up: "I'm not eating this meal. We'll meet again someday!"

"Hey!" Chen Jingyang grabbed him. "The food's already ordered, we can't just not eat! Sit down!"

"Is this even edible? You're going to eat seventy million of my money in one meal! Chen Jingyang, are you dreaming?"

"Sit down, sit down, sit down!" Chen Jingyang pressed Liu Chengyu into a seat. "Tell me, what kind of discount can you give me?"

That's a brilliant question. Instead of asking if there's a discount, he directly asked what kind of discount he could get!

Liu Chengyu was speechless: "Not even a 10% discount! With that location, I'd be losing money even if I gave you 100 million, and you still have the nerve to ask me for a discount!"

Chen Jingyang clicked his tongue: "Aren't we good buddies? Besides, do you really need that little bit of money?"

"Hey!" Liu Chengyu chuckled, "Stop trying to morally blackmail me! Friendship is friendship, business is business. I don't need that little bit of money, but do you?"

"I really am in need!" Chen Jingyang said with a wry smile, "We've known each other for so long, you should know me. If I weren't really incapable, I would never have asked you for this!"

Liu Chengyu remained silent, finishing his tea before looking up at him: "Since you put it that way, let's stop testing each other and be frank. How much can you offer at most?"

4000.

"Then there's nothing to discuss; the cost price isn't even enough."

Chen Jingyang gently stroked the teacup: "What's your cost price?"

6000.

Chen Jingyang silently calculated that if he sold all his stocks, funds, and bonds, he could raise about forty to fifty million yuan...

"Okay! 60 million it is!"

"No?!" Liu Chengyu quickly interrupted, "That's the cost, you're not letting me make a single penny?"

Chen Jingyang smiled broadly: "How dare you make money off me?"

Liu Chengyu finally lost his temper: "What's there to be embarrassed about! I'm definitely going to make your money! At least 80 million, otherwise forget it!"

Chen Jingyang stroked his chin, thought for a while, and then said, "I'll give you 60 million, plus 0.5% of Tanzhi's original shares."

Liu Chengyu thought for a moment: "At least two points."

Chen Jingyang scoffed: "Tanzhi's market value is currently in the billions. Once the new generation of products starts to be delivered in batches after the New Year, it will definitely exceed 100 million. 0.5 is already 50 million. Don't push your luck!"

Liu Chengyu wasn't easily fooled: "You haven't gone public yet, have you? Even if everything goes smoothly, it will be at least 3 years before you go public. There are always things that might go wrong, and I'm taking the risk!"

"One point, if that's not enough, then forget it!"

After thinking for a while, Liu Chengyu finally compromised and extended his right hand: "Deal!"

Chen Jingyang's bid marked the official completion of the deal.

Over the next few days, Chen Jingyang started trying to raise money and called Lin Zheyan over: "Help me find buyers to sell that Rolls-Royce and Aston Martin."

Lin Zheyan was very surprised. His icy face was full of doubt, and his eyebrows furrowed in a rare manner: "Why do you want to sell your car? Don't you like your car very much?"

Chen Jingyang said nonchalantly, "I've been driving them for two years, I'm tired of them. Having a car is enough, why do I need so many?"

Lin Zheyan was skeptical. Both cars were original imports, especially the Aston Martin, which was one of only 19 produced worldwide. Chen Jingyang had put in a lot of effort to acquire it, but he got tired of it after only two years.

If that's the case, that Cullinan has been driven for more than three years, how come people aren't tired of it?

"Go ahead!" Chen Jingyang waved his hand. "Whoever offers the highest price gets it, cash payment preferred."

The paperwork for the house had just been completed, and the property certificate hadn't even been received yet, but Chen Jingyang couldn't wait to start looking at interior design styles.

However, he was just looking at it; he would have to wait a while before starting the renovation. Although he hadn't calculated it in detail, the renovation would cost at least several million yuan, and he couldn't possibly leave no money for emergencies.

Anyway, there's no rush to move in now. He has plenty of time to take his time and set things up. He won't tell Zhang Pengfei about the house beforehand; he'll give him a surprise once everything is ready.

Chen Jingyang never expected that this ordeal would last for several years!

A major crisis is brewing, just waiting for the right moment to plunge him into an abyss!
