Chapter 365 Playboy (Subscribe to support!)
…
Li Changyi's home.
Xu Kai looked at Li Changyi's room full of exaggerated and countless high-end dresses, brand-name bags, shoes, jewelry, perfumes, "Barbie dolls", etc., and said in astonishment: "You must have spent a lot of time and thought on this, right?"
In fact, what Xu Kai really wanted to say was: "You are exaggerating. This is probably big enough for you to open a luxury goods mall in your home!"
In fact, Xu Kai's women were spendthrifts enough and were good at spending. But compared with Li Changyi, who even set up her own luxury goods museum, Xu Kai suddenly felt that his women were too frugal and knew how to live.
Xu Kai couldn't help but think: "How about I increase their pocket money?"
Li Changyi said a little embarrassedly: "My father always said that boys should be raised poorly and girls should be raised well, so he found ways to spend money on me. As a result, I have liked collecting luxury goods since I was a child. In fact, my dream is to be a fashion designer. I hope that one day I can wear the clothes I designed to participate in international events. Unfortunately, my father does not allow me to develop in the direction of a designer. He insists that I always be prepared to inherit his family business."
After hearing Li Changyi's slightly disappointed and regretful words, Xu Kai really didn't know how to respond - Xu Kai couldn't say: "Are you sure you're not showing off to me?" He could only say: "You have so many clothes, shoes, jewelry, and bags, I don't know how to match them. Well... otherwise, you should match them yourself, my eyes are dazzled."
Xu Kai was not really refusing. He had always been good at matching clothes, and he could always give appropriate suggestions on what his women should wear.
It was also because of this that when Li Changyi asked Xu Kai to help her with the matching, Xu Kai agreed immediately.
But Xu Kai never expected that it would take more than seven hours to walk around Li Changyi's house. How could he plan to do this?
"Oh~"
Seeing that Xu Kai was unable to give her constructive advice, Li Changyi could only match her clothes on her own.
Unexpectedly, Li Changyi, who is usually very opinionated, fashionable and good at dressing, suddenly didn't know what to wear today.
——For some reason, Li Changyi suddenly felt that no matter what she wore or what she wore, she was not worthy of having an ordinary dinner with Xu Kai.
Fortunately——
Xu Kai showed plenty of patience and had no intention of urging Li Changyi, even though the meal time Xu Kai had booked was almost up.
Since he really didn't know what to wear, Li Changyi hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Kai, how about you ask the restaurant to deliver the food to my house, and we can eat at my house?"
In Xu Kai's opinion, where to eat and what to eat are not important. What is important is who to eat with and whether he can find a way to repay Li Changyi's favor during the meal.
So, since Li Changyi wanted to eat at her house instead, Xu Kai had no objection.
——Xu Kai immediately called the restaurant he had booked and asked them to deliver the prepared dishes and drinks to Li Changyi's home.
Perhaps because she didn't have to go out with Xu Kai, Li Changyi finally relaxed and quickly matched her outfit for the day.
Not long after, Xu Kai and Li Changyi appeared in her restaurant, which was filled with sumptuous dishes and red wine in decanters.
As soon as they sat down, Xu Kai told Li Changyi in advance: "I can't drink much, so it's okay for me to drink a little with you, but don't drink too much, because I'm afraid that I will have sex after drinking and make you laugh."
Li Changyi's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, and then he smiled and said, "Then let's drink less."
After saying that, Li Changyi poured half a glass of red wine for Xu Kai and herself.
Red wine is usually poured one-third of the glass, and few people pour half a glass at once like Li Changyi.
"Cheers."
After clinking glasses with Xu Kai, Li Changyi drank most of the wine in one breath. Then she said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I had 1982 Lafite. It tastes really good."
Xu Kai couldn't go to Li Changyi's wine cabinet to see if there was any 1982 Lafite, right? Xu Kai could only politely accompany Li Changyi for half a glass.
Putting down the wine glass, Li Changyi took the initiative to ask: "Brother Kai, will you still be mainly abroad for the next period of time?"
Xu Kai nodded: "Well, after the financial crisis, my country bought a large amount of US government bonds. Now the two countries are in a rare honeymoon period. This is a good opportunity to enter the US market and go global through the US."
"Then...sisters-in-law will stay in the country forever?" Li Changyi asked again.
"They also followed me to the United States. Now they live in the Beverly Hills Hotel. Well... we plan to buy a suitable house in Beverly Hills. After all, in the next two to three years, we will often be in Hollywood, and it is not very convenient to always stay in a hotel." Xu Kai said.
In fact, the girls had already gone to the United States with Xu Kai.
However, during this period, Xu Kai has never considered buying a house in the United States.
Until the girls went to Beverly Hills.
It has the world's most upscale commercial street, which gathers the world's top fashion brands. It is a veritable paradise for celebrities and wealthy people.
Most importantly, Beverly Hills is located on the refreshing Pacific coast and at the foot of Beverly Hills.
If Hollywood is the crown of the United States, then Beverly Hills is the jewel in the crown.
Moreover, Beverly Hills is a dream place in the minds of world-famous celebrities and wealthy people, and is regarded as the representative and symbol of wealth, fame and fortune.
Owning a mansion in Beverly Hills will undoubtedly increase the fame and wealth of its residents - a villa in Beverly Hills not only means superior living resources, but also means a prominent status.
Therefore, superstars from all over the world have purchased properties here, including Hollywood movie stars, music stars, NBA basketball stars, as well as politicians and business tycoons from all over the world.
It is also because of this that the luxury homes in Beverly Hills are the most expensive in the world and are known as "the most prestigious residential area in the world."
In addition, there are countless world-class department stores in Beverly Hills, with flagship stores of world-class brands lining both sides of the streets. Each store is magnificent, and each famous store has its own unique architectural style.
The famous saying here is: "Don't ask the price when buying something. If you ask, it means you can't afford it."
Superstars, wealthy people, and the world's top elites gather in Beverly Hills to show off their wealth and status, expand their popularity, and more money flows into their wallets. Their lifestyles and spending styles lead the global fashion trend. They stand at the pinnacle of luxury and show people a colorful dream.
After Xu Kai and his group of women came to Beverly Hills, they heard the legend about Beverly Hills.
In addition, in the heart of Beverly Hills is the world-famous shopping paradise Rodeo Drive, which is lined with more than 100 famous brand stores and high-end custom brand stores at the top of the ivory tower of the fashion industry.
All the women in Xu Kai's family came up with the idea of buying a house in Beverly Hills.
This kind of thing was not a big deal for Xu Kai, who was getting richer and richer, so Xu Kai agreed easily.
but--
Those so-called luxury houses are luxury houses for families with smaller members, but they are too small for a large family like Xu Kai's.
Therefore, the girls had not found a suitable house for a while.
At this stage, the girls are traveling around Hollywood while continuing to look for a suitable house.
When Li Changyi heard Xu Kai say that he wanted to buy a house in Beverly Hills, she took the initiative to say, "Beverly Hills is very private, with a quiet and secluded environment and a high green coverage rate. Unlike some luxurious and high-profile garden front yard houses, many houses there are surrounded by tall green trees or have long private driveways. It is difficult for passers-by to peek into the real appearance of the house, and the personal privacy and security are very high. In addition, it is low-key, quiet and beautiful. It is indeed a suitable place to live."
After hearing this, Xu Kai asked, "Are you familiar with Beverly Hills?"
Li Changyi explained: "I also have a house in Beverly Hills, No. 16 North Hill."
Xu Kai had also stayed at the Beverly Hills Hotel for a few nights, so he knew from the girls that Beverly Hills was bounded by Santa Monica Blvd, and the area north of the avenue was the real luxury residential area of Beverly Hills.
The further north you go, the more beautiful the mountains become.
The view is also a key factor in determining the price of the house.
So, the further north you go, the more expensive the housing prices in Beverly Hills become.
Therefore, No. 16 Beishan, which Li Changyi lives in and is very far north, must be a first-class luxury house in Beverly Hills.
Xu Kai smiled and said, "It seems that we might become neighbors."
After hearing what Xu Kai said, Li Changyi was moved and said, "Oh, I remembered something. No. 1 Beishan is Mr. Xiu's house. This house is located on the edge of Sunset Boulevard and covers an area of 6 acres. It is not only luxuriously decorated, but also extremely private. Mr. Xiu's daughter Jane is my good friend. She told me some time ago that Mr. Xiu is going to sell his house."
No matter how ignorant Xu Kai was, he had heard of the name of the playboy Hugh Hefner.
Hugh Hefner's life is a legend. He was suave and wealthy, and was said to have had 2,000 lovers. At the age of 60, he suffered a stroke due to eating too much. When he was nearly 90, he married a 26-year-old model who was 60 years younger than him.
Hugh Hefner is definitely the dream of every man in the world.
Xu Kai had also heard of Hugh Hefner's house. It was known as the paradise that all men most yearn for.
The reason why Beishan No. 1 is called a paradise for men is that there are countless bunny girls living here, as well as top models and most of the top Hollywood female stars. They are keen to hold parties and cocktail parties in this manor! Not only that, there is also a super expensive private jet in the house. The plane is sprayed black and printed with a big bunny head. Uh, it is the Playboy logo. Black seems to be very low-key, but it is not. There is a different world inside.
This big black rabbit is fully equipped with bars, KTVs, dance halls, and even a cinema. However, these are not a big deal. What Hugh Hefner loves most are of course his bunny girls. Therefore, it is more accurate to say that he has a mobile nightclub rather than an airplane.
As the founder of an erotic magazine, Hugh Hefner has countless models under his name, including top beauties. It can really be said that Hugh Hefner has "seen countless women."
With so many women, it is really comparable to the harem of ancient emperors. Some emperors are even worse than him.
Uh…that’s getting off topic.
Back to the point, No. 1 Beishan really meets Xu Kai's conditions for buying a house. After all, this is the place where Hugh Hefner and his countless lovers have fun. Needless to say, it is vast and luxurious. Xu Kai only has a few women, so there is definitely enough room for them to live there.
So Xu Kai immediately said to Li Changyi: "I know that house. If Hugh Hefner is willing to sell it, I am willing to take it over as long as the price is right."
Hearing Xu Kai say that he was willing to accept the man's paradise at No. 1 Beishan, Li Changyi felt a little disgusted, but she still smiled and said, "The price of a house in Beverly Hills depends mainly on three factors. One is the house itself, the second is whether the house is close enough to the north, and the third is the reputation of its original owner. Mr. Xiu's house is the largest and the northernmost one in Beverly Hills, and Mr. Xiu's own reputation... Although he is a dissolute and romantic person, Mr. Xiu has indeed created an era."
Although Li Changyi did not say it explicitly, her words and actions were telling Xu Kai that No. 1 Beishan must be very expensive.
Xu Kai smiled and said, "I like Hugh Hefner, so I am willing to take over his house. Of course, the premise is that it can't be too expensive."
After receiving Xu Kai's affirmative answer, Li Changyi said, "Mr. Xiu married a new wife not long ago, and announced to the public that she was his true love and that she was the only one for him in his life. Perhaps to prove that his true love was this wife, he was going to sell his house in Beverly Hills. From what Jane said, he was not going to live a dissolute life anymore. So, I will call Jane now and ask her to ask Mr. Xiu how to sell his house."
Things went more smoothly than Xu Kai had imagined. The 87-year-old Hugh Hefner might really want to change his personality, and he actually took the initiative to offer a price that was quite sincere.
Of course, this price will definitely discourage most wealthy people.
Xu Kai speculated that this might be the reason why Beishan No. 1 has not been sold and why Hugh Hefner's offer is reasonable.
All in all, the offer for Beishan No. 1 is still within Xu Kai's affordability.
The only thing that made Xu Kai unhappy was that Hugh Hefner actually wanted to sell his almost twenty-year-old private jet to Xu Kai, and claimed that he would not sell them separately.
To be honest, Xu Kai was really afraid that this antique would fall from the sky while flying.
but--
Xu Kai thought that if he didn't need the plane, he could give it to Long Zijin as a cargo plane.
Cargo planes are usually converted from retired civil airliners and are much cheaper than new passenger planes that cost hundreds of millions of dollars. The average age of the freighters in Xingyun Express's fleet is 22.56 years old.
This is actually an international practice.
Overall, this transaction is still very likely to be successful.
This, of course, was inseparable from Li Changyi's help in matchmaking - if Li Changyi and Hugh Hefner's daughter Jane were not best friends, Xu Kai would not have been able to get in touch with Hugh Hefner so easily, and would not even have known that Hugh Hefner was going to sell No. 1 Beishan.
Xu Kai picked up the wine glass and said to Li Changyi, "Thank you, Xiaoyi, you helped me again. Counting the last time you helped me contact your father for a loan, I already owe you twice. I don't like to owe others. Do you have anything I can do to repay you?"
Li Changyi didn't bother to be polite with Xu Kai. She said directly, "Then you can sit with me until tomorrow morning."
Xu Kai was shocked when he heard this: "Uh... I'm sure it'll be fine, but you might die."
