Chapter 377 Dream House

For Hong Kong people, buying a house is a big deal.

This desire to have a house and a home is probably rooted in the blood of the descendants of the Yellow Emperor, almost instinctive.

When Yi Jiayi was about to go out to look at houses, Jiaru was still sleeping in the quilt.

It was a rare weekend, and the family was not rushing around. Two little pigs were sleeping soundly in the two small rooms.

Jiayi put on her bag and went out, thinking that if she could buy a four-bedroom mansion, the four brothers and sisters would all get their own rooms and enjoy independent space.

Arriving at the sales office of Haocheng Yayuan, Jiayi found a sofa, crossed her legs and turned on the air conditioner. Today, the sales manager would take her to see several other cheaper houses that she had not seen yesterday.

A group of people rushed in from outside the door. It was so hot, but they were all dressed in formal clothes, men in suits and leather shoes, and women in office skirts with high heels. They surrounded a man in the middle with a slicked-back hair wearing a linen Tang suit... Maybe he was some big boss who came to buy a house? Maybe he was buying a whole building.

She was just wondering about the origin of this group of people, but after they entered the door, they looked around and came straight to her.

Jiayi put away the doubt and casualness in her eyes and began to look at the visitors carefully.

"Officer Yi!" When the big man in Tang suit was still three or four steps away from Jiayi, he put on a friendly businessman's smile and stretched out his right hand to her: "I am honored to have you here." "

Hello." Jiayi stood up and shook hands with him politely, but her expression did not relax.

"Madam Yi, this is Mr. Li Bode, the chairman of our Si Ya Real Estate." Liu Zhuo, the vice president standing next to Li Bode, introduced him with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Li." Although Jiayi had met many wealthy people and knew that these big bosses and chairmen were not busy all day long, and many of them even had time to play golf or visit large parks, she did not expect that when she came to look at a house, she would be personally received by the real estate boss.

"Madam Yi, I'm your fan. I love watching your news on TV and in newspapers. You're so righteous and powerful." Li Bode smiled and took his hand back. After a slightly exaggerated greeting, he asked,

"Excuse me, can I take a photo with Officer Yi? My daughter also admires you. She will be very excited to see me taking a photo with you."

After Jiayi agreed, Li Bode immediately asked his men to take the camera that had been prepared long ago and take a photo of him and Yi Jiayi.

Then, Li Bode took Jiayi to look at houses with many people around.

Jiayi originally wanted to see a more affordable house than the luxury house yesterday, which didn't need to be as high or too big, but the one Li Bode showed her today was bigger and more luxurious than the one yesterday, and the view was wider.

However, these houses are indeed as good as Li Bode introduced. You get what you pay for.

Every time you walk into a house, you will feel like you don't want to leave.

The bay is beautiful, and Kowloon Park not far downstairs is also very beautiful. When the weather is not hot, you can go to the park to fly kites. Jiaru and Jiajun must like it very much.

There is also a house with a very big kitchen, which is simply against the sky in the house planning of Hong Kong. If my eldest brother moves in, he can show his skills and he will definitely have a delicious meal every morning. By then, the whole kitchen will be bright and clean, the fruits and vegetables will be washed clean, with water drops hanging on them, the colors will be rich and saturated, and the whole room will be filled with the aroma of fruits... How wonderful it will be to have a happy life with daily necessities and delicious hot pot.

Put a vase of lilies on the window, and the sea breeze will blow in, carrying the fragrance of lilies, filling the whole room.

Yi Jiayi carefully recorded the size, price, room type, advantages and disadvantages of these houses in a notebook. When she returned to the sales hall, she sat in the private room, sipped tea, and seriously discussed these houses with Li Bode.

"Mr. Li, I have already talked to the sales manager here. Even the houses I saw yesterday were a bit of a burden to me. The houses I saw today are all priced over 10 million. Even if I have to pay the mortgage, it is still a lot of pressure."

Although Hong Kong today is not as bad as it was in the future, any small house in any remote area costs 5 million or more. But if you want to buy a bigger house in Yau Tsim Mong District or Hong Kong Island, you have to spend several million, not to mention a luxury house in such a good location and such a high-quality community.

Jiayi, who felt like a wealthy woman yesterday, has now begun to feel poor.

"Officer Yi, don't worry too much. You are the light of justice in Hong Kong, so of course I have to give you a discount. If others knew that I was going to make a lot of money from you, then how would I, Li Bode, have any face in the future?" Li Bode laughed and looked at the brochures of several houses placed in front of him. After searching for a while, he pulled the most standard 11 million luxury house in front of Yi Jiayi and asked with a smile:

"Madam Yi, what do you think of this one?"

"Of course the house is very good, but--"

"I'll give you a 20% discount and sell it to you for 8 million. How about that?" Li Bode made an extremely exaggerated expression of bargaining and raised his eyebrows waiting for Yi Jiayi's answer.

"..." That means she needs to go to the bank to borrow 3 million yuan. If she earns 50,000 yuan a month and repays 40,000 yuan, she will have to repay for 75 months, which is more than six years.

Jiayi calculated silently for a long time and felt that it seemed affordable.

Every day she either goes with everyone to eat with Brother Yue, or goes back to Yi Ji to eat with her eldest brother. If she doesn't buy many clothes and saves some other expenses, it can be done.

"Mr. Li, I want to think about it and discuss it with my family." Jiayi raised her head and said hesitantly.

"Madam Yi, don't worry, you won't lose money if you buy here. Many business elites and big stars have bought houses here. For example, Runfa and Maggie Cheung have all booked houses here." Li Bode smiled and stood up with Jiayi, personally escorted her to the door of the sales office, shook her hand, asked her if she wanted a car to take her home, and then waved goodbye.

Watching Yi Jiayi leave, Li Bode put away his smile.

"Boss, Officer Yi's budget was originally only 5 million. Would 8 million be too expensive for her?" Vice President Liu Zhuo was a little worried that he would make a wasted trip today and the cooperation would fail.

"Don't worry, such a nice house, 8 million is like picking it up for nothing. Buying it means making a few million out of thin air. Who knows how many times it will increase by next year. When doing business, you can't show that you are particularly willing to cooperate. You have to show that you want to cooperate, and at the same time give her a little difficulty. This is a good thing. The kind of feeling that you want it, but it's a little difficult. The more difficult it is, the more you want it. Do you understand?" Li Bode smiled confidently:

"She has 5 million in her pocket. If I only make this 5 million, I would not be able to have the world I have today. As a person, you must be ambitious. If you want to be a big businessman, a top businessman, you must be more ambitious. Even if we need the value that she brings..."

Li Bode shrugged:

"If we can get more benefits from her, we must not let her go."

...

That night, Fang Liqian, the chairman of Changhe Real Estate, a great philanthropist, a great industrialist, and the real estate tycoon of Hong Kong, who was sitting in his office, also heard the news that Officer Yi Jiayi was going to buy a house - she was personally led by her competitor Li Bode to see several boutique houses in Haocheng Yayuan and seemed to be interested in buying them.

Recently, Fang Liqian had his eyes on a piece of land on the Stanley Peninsula, and Li Bode was actively competing with him.

Fang Liqian sat in the office chair for more than ten minutes and made a decision:

"Are our three king-level luxury houses in Century Mansion in Tsim Sha Tsui, which overlook Victoria Bay, still there?"

"Yes." The chairman's secretary nodded.

"Call Anan in, and have him pick up Officer Yi to see the house tomorrow."

A few hours later, the cleaning staff went out on the spur of the moment and cleaned the three best five-bedroom multi-story mansions in Century Mansion, Changhe Real Estate's signature property this year, spotlessly clean.

Wu Aili even moved three of the most luxurious large refrigerators of the best brands into the mansion and filled the three refrigerators with cold drinks. He

also temporarily ordered some fresh flowers to be placed in the house, and there was also a flower basket at the door with big words on it:

[Welcome Officer Yi Jiayi]

...

...

The next morning, Jiayi went to work as usual, only occasionally taking a break to daydream, thinking about the house and doing some calculations.

When she was done with work, she went out alone because she was going to the bank to ask about mortgage loans.

But as soon as he walked down the steps of the police station, he was stopped by a man.

Fang Huainan parked his luxury car under the shade of the tree beside the steps of the police station, holding flowers in his hands, and strode to meet Yi Jiayi when he saw her.

"Madam Yi, hello, I am the top salesperson of Changhe Real Estate. My name is Fang Huainan. I heard that Madam Yi wants to buy a house. I wonder if you are interested in coming to our place to take a look?" Fang Huainan is now working as a salesperson at Changhe Real Estate. At the same time, he has another identity, that is, the youngest son of Fang Liqian, the boss of Changhe Real Estate.

Everyone in Hong Kong knows that Boss Fang is just like what is shown in many movies. He sends his sons to the executive level of various industries, where they personally contact front-line customers, run projects, and even keep invoices and apply for reimbursement like ordinary employees...

Even though many people know that the Fang Huainan brothers are "small bosses", they will not really embarrass him like they do ordinary partners and ordinary employees. In the end, these young men can still see some of the various aspects of the world. Many

people say that Hong Kong people are vulgar, but some of the "big vulgarity" is so vivid and real, containing the most straightforward life wisdom.

Jiayi has heard the story of the Fang family, the king of the building, and the rumors about Fang Huainan, the youngest son of Boss Fang, but this is the first time she has seen him in person.

She took the bouquet, had a brief conversation with him, and nodded to get into his car.

Fang Huainan has a different temperament from the two young masters Zhao Lihao and Zhao Liqin. Although he wears a suit and tie, he does not have any signs of being bound by a tutor. He drives a cool luxury car, but he specially goes around for a parking space that is 10 Hong Kong dollars cheaper.

When he jumped out of the car and passed the co-pilot to meet Yi Jiayi, Fang Huainan pulled his collar with some heat and said cheerfully:

"Today I specially put on the most decent suit to show our Changhe Real Estate's respect for Madam Yi."

"What did Mr. Fang wear to work every day before?" Jiayi asked curiously.

"Breathable sneakers and casual pants, the weather in Hong Kong is so hot, madam." Fang Huainan smiled and led her into the shade of trees. When entering the door, he showed his work ID to the guard, and quickly helped Yi Jiayi swipe the magnetic card door.

A strange combination of self-confidence and recklessness.

"I have a friend who would wear flip-flops every day if the police station allowed detectives to work." Jiayi smiled.

"Wouldn't it be better to wear a cross-rail vest to work?" Fang Huainan was very familiar. "

And a palm leaf fan." Jiayi couldn't help but imagine Brother Yue wearing a white cross-rail vest, loose shorts, flip-flops on his feet, and waving a palm leaf fan and walking into the police station...

I'm afraid that Mr. Huang will be so angry that he will slam the table.

"This outfit is very convenient for secretly digging my toes behind my desk when I go to work." Fang Huainan said.

"Hahaha."

The two chatted along the way and unknowingly got on the elevator.

The elevators in Century Mansions have windows. Although they are not as dazzling as the all-glass sightseeing elevators of later generations, you can appreciate the scenery outside the window that is getting farther and farther away and lower through the glass windows on each floor during the upward process - a bit like sitting on a train or plane and watching the world passing by through the window.

"When we built the building, we compared it to the most advanced architectural design in Hong Kong. Even if it is not as good as those landmark buildings, it is definitely one of the most advanced technologies in Hong Kong." Fang Huainan crossed his arms and introduced the design concept of Century Mansion to Yi Jiayi one by one, including where it is humanized, where it is very expensive, and where the world's top designers were invited to design it...

Standing in front of the French window in the living room, Jiayi listened to the advantages of this community while looking at the busy Victoria Bay not far below with ships coming and going.

The bustling port is the source of the city's wealth.

She was standing on the 25th floor, overlooking its morning.

The sea in midsummer is azure blue. When thick clouds cross the sky, they cast cloud-shaped shadows on the sea, like a giant whale quietly diving under the sea...

Raising her head and looking at Xiangjiang Island on the other side of Victoria Bay, she can see the Victoria Peak and even the 70-story Bank of China Building that pierces the sky and the earth.

This place is many times better than the luxury houses I saw yesterday.

But at the same time, the price is probably going to be sky-high.

Seeing that Officer Yi Jiayi did not respond for a long time, Fang Huainan turned around and saw the young female detective looking at the world outside the window, like an eagle longing for freedom and about to spread its wings and fly there.

When they reached the window, Fang Huainan suddenly knocked on the French window with force, attracting her attention. After a salute, he introduced:

"This French window technology, our Changhe Real Estate has mastered is absolutely first-class in Asia. Even if I hit it hard, it won't crack."

Then he pretended to hit it.

Yi Jiayi quickly came to her senses and pulled him hard. Fang Huainan staggered when she pulled him, and then he found that the female sergeant in front of him, who was not as tall as him, was not inferior in strength.

He was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

Jiayi realized that the other party was joking.

"Do you feel it?" he asked after he had laughed enough.

"What?" Jiayi asked.

"Sea breeze." Fang Huainan opened his arms slightly.

Jiayi lowered her eyes to feel it. The gentle sea breeze came in from the south and exhaled from the north, and the two of them were standing in the wind. Her hair was gently touched, and she smelled the hot breath of the sea.

"It's transparent from north to south, with a good layout, good planning, good quality, and good scenery. What do you think, Madam Yi? Consider Century Mansion?" Fang Huainan promoted it seriously like a most qualified salesperson.

"It's great." Jiayi exclaimed sincerely.

"There's something even better."

"?"

Fang Huainan pointed to the west, across the sea was Lantau Island:

"The area of ​​Lantau Island closest to here is enclosed for the construction of Disneyland.

"When Disneyland opens, not only can we overlook Victoria Bay from here, but we can also watch the fireworks of Disneyland across the sea every night..."
