Chapter 197 New Home (Part 2)
The next day, the three of them expressed to Fang Yu their willingness to take the lead in this private equity investment.
Finally, after discussion, the name of the private equity fund was decided to be the name of the dormitory, 404.
Full name: Haixi Yisi Lingsi Investment Management Co., Ltd.
After the decision was made, Fang Yu used the excuse that he, a big client, had to be treated to a meal of Big Plate Chicken at the entrance of the National University to celebrate the establishment of their company.
Luo Ziming and Lu Xuechang suspected that this guy had no intention of setting up this company at all, and was just trying to trick them into treating him to a meal.
After all, this kind of thing has happened before.
It was not until Fang Yu showed them the balance of his Alipay account with great pride that the two of them believed him, called him godfather, and bowed down to him.
In the middle of winter, the three adopted sons braved the severe cold and enthusiastically started to go through the process of verifying the company's name and industrial and commercial registration.
Many people believe that when people become rich, their old friends will gradually become distant, but in fact, it depends on the person and the situation.
For example, many big bosses in Yuezhou who started from scratch can usually be guests of honor of their leaders, and can also go fishing and picnics with their playmates from the same village decades ago, and they can argue with each other all the time.
My playmate didn't join his company either. At most, he did some business for the big boss's company and acted as a backdoor supplier.
Did the relationship change? It certainly has, to a certain extent, but as long as you're not overly sentimental, this change is perfectly acceptable and we can still be considered good friends.
The prerequisite is that both parties must be clear about the situation.
The prosperous party should not always think that they are taking advantage of their old friends, and the poor party should not always think that they should get a share of the other party's prosperity. If they don't, it means they don't care about the old friendship.
As long as both parties can grasp this scale, friendship can be sustained.
"Where are we going? Oh, that's disgusting." Tang Yufei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, fed Fang Yu a washed strawberry, and Fang Yu bit her finger.
Fang Yu rubbed the steering wheel, turned right and said, "Hanning Mansion."
Tang Yufei uttered an "oh," thinking she was going to eat. She pinched her belly and said, "I feel like I've gained half a pound. Can we not eat roast duck today?"
There is a high-end roast duck restaurant below the Hanning Mansion. Fang Yu likes it very much and has brought Tang Yufei here twice before.
Fang Yu also pinched it: "Yeah, it's a little fatter."
Tang Yufei's cheeks flushed, and she rolled her eyes at Fang Yu: "I was talking about my belly, where are you pinching?"
Fang Yu saw the camera, laughed, and retracted his Lushan claws: "I'm not going to eat."
Aren't you going to eat? Then what are you going to Hanning Mansion for?
Fang Yu didn't keep the secret. The trick of bringing a girl to a place, blindfolding her, letting her go and saying, "Look, this is the fish pond I contracted for you" is fine to use once. It would be stupid to use it all the time.
Therefore, Fang Yu simply stated, "I bought you a house in Hanning Mansion, and I also bought a villa there. They're second-hand houses, all renovated and uninhabited. I'll take you there to have a look today."
It's like buying a table and chairs.
Hanning Mansion is a relatively high-end residential complex in Pingjiang. Similar to Jinyue Haoting, it also features a combination of villas and low-rise buildings. However, Hanning Mansion was built later and no longer has land approved for single-family homes, so there are only townhouses.
But this did not pose a problem for Fang Yu. He simply bought two connected townhouses and connected the middle to form a single-family house.
Of course, there is definitely a gap in location and grade. After all, Jinyue Haoting is a luxury residence in the city center of Ping'an District, and the price per square meter is more than three times that of Hanning Mansion.
Fortunately, the purchase restrictions were lifted in the second half of the previous year, otherwise I would not be eligible to buy a house now.
However, judging by the housing prices, purchase restrictions will be reimposed by the end of the year at the latest.
Fang Yu turned his head to look at Tang Yufei and found that there seemed to be no change on Tang Yufei's face. She was carefully pinching off the roots of the strawberries with her fingernails.
"You want to support me?" Tang Yufei fed Fang Yu another strawberry.
Fang Yu chuckled, "You don't want to date or get married, and I don't plan to settle down either. But since our relationship has come to this point, I have the ability, you have the need, and we're both quite happy together. I don't think it can be considered keeping someone, right? Apart from anything else, when you say this word, it sounds like I'm already a 30- or 40-year-old man."
"Also, the premise of keeping me as a sugar daddy is that you're only interested in my money, not me as a person. But obviously, judging from your performance last night, you don't meet this standard."
Tang Yufei's pretended calm expression collapsed in an instant, and her face turned red all the way to her ears.
However, after hearing what Fang Yu said, Tang Yufei's sense of shame and subconscious fear were reduced a little.
The sense of shame comes from the nature of the matter, while the sense of fear comes from the worry about what Fang Yu will think of her.
After a while, Tang Yufei regained her composure and asked, "Why did you think of buying a house in Hanning Mansion?"
Fang Yu chuckled, "Didn't you take the exam for the Pingjiang Official Tax Office? It's only about 500 meters away from here, and less than a kilometer if you count the area outside the residential complex. It's a ten-minute walk to and from get off work, which saves at least an hour of commuting time every day. How convenient."
Tang Yufei's nose felt sore, and she patted Fang Yu: "There's still the interview. I'm not sure if I can pass. What if I don't pass? Besides, I don't have any connections..."
Fang Yu shook his head firmly. "You got first place in the written exam, who could possibly reject you? If you really had connections, who would take the national exam? They would have gone through the selection or direct placement program long ago, right? Besides, you underestimate the national exam in Haixi. In recent years, I haven't heard of anyone passing an interview by relying on connections."
"Let's not talk about other places, but at least Haixi is fair."
"The interviewers were randomly selected, and we gathered a day in advance. Our contact information was confiscated, and we didn't know which exam room we would be attending. There were five to seven interviewers, only two of whom were from the employer, and the rest were from other places. We barely knew each other, so who dared to say hello?"
After saying that, Fang Yu glanced at Tang Yufei sideways and said, "And look at your own appearance. Don't you have any idea? With this appearance, you passed the political review, but how can you fail the interview?"
Regardless of whether other things are right or wrong, at least what Fang Yu said at the end is absolutely the truth.
Those with outstanding appearance can basically pass the interview even if their answers are not so good.
There’s no way around it. It’s not just about looking at faces now, it’s been like this since ancient times.
Fang Yu's license plate had already been registered with the property management of Hanning Mansion. When the car arrived, the barrier was automatically raised and entered the underground parking lot.
Negative one is the property parking space, and negative two is the civil defense parking space.
"Let's go to your place first." Fang Yu parked the car in the parking space near the entrance of Building 10 on the underground first floor. This parking space also belonged to the previous owner of this apartment. It was sold together with the apartment, so Fang Yu bought it together.
From the 11th floor to the top, there is one elevator for two households. The elevator runs through the door, which can be considered a pseudo-elevator that goes directly to the household, but there is also a large door with an electronic lock. Fang Yu swiped the card, opened the door, and made a gesture to Tang Yufei to invite him in.
Tang Yufei tiptoed into the door of Room 602. Just as she was about to go in, she saw Fang Yu open the door of the shoe cabinet and took out two pairs of slippers: "Change your shoes, the cleaning staff just did it."
Seeing the Crayon Shin-chan's butt slippers in Fang Yu's hand, Tang Yufei couldn't help but chuckle and reached out to take it.
"It's 140 square meters, with three bedrooms, two living rooms, and three bathrooms. There's another large four-bedroom apartment in this complex, measuring 227 square meters, but the decor there is too tacky, with a rural-urban aesthetic. This one is a bit smaller, but the decor is nice, with a simple style and a very user-friendly feel."
Fang Yu held Tang Yufei's hand and introduced the layout and facilities of the house to her.
"I only have one bed in this guest bedroom. After all, there are usually only two of us here. You can decide whether to let Zhang Ruoqi come and stay here..."
"There's no TV in the living room, so I bought a projector. I just press a button here and the screen comes down. It's a 120-inch, 4K projection, which looks big enough, right?"
"I've got a study and a treadmill here, so I can exercise whenever I have nothing to do. Didn't you say you have a little belly?"
"There's nothing much to see in the kitchen. You can study it yourself later... The door inside is the housekeeping room. The washing machine and dryer are over there. Oh, and the gas water heater is over there too."
Tang Yufei followed behind Fang Yu, listening to Fang Yu's enthusiastic and rambling explanation of the house. She suppressed the emotions in her heart again and again, but her eyes still turned red.
"Fang Yu."
Fang Yu felt Tang Yufei's palms were moist and he smiled sideways: "What?"
Tang Yufei pulled her right hand out of Fang Yu's palm, put her arms around Fang Yu's neck, stood on tiptoes, and kissed her.
A full three minutes.
"Huh~" Fang Yu exhaled softly beside Tang Yufei's ear, "We still have one place left to visit."
After saying that, he picked up Tang Yufei and went straight to the master bedroom.
"Try to see if the Serta mattress bounces?"
Hmm, it’s quite bouncy. Let’s try this side, it’s also quite bouncy.
