Yang Fen nearly choked, while Ruan Xianxian almost burst out laughing. Only adults make choices; kids, of course, want it all!
To the average person, Ruan Xianxian's act of exchanging a warship for a few century-old dilapidated buildings is simply insane, a sign of shortsightedness and limited vision.
However, all three people in the car, except Yang Fen, knew about the future value of the old Western-style building.
Ruan Xianxian has her eye on that building, and the future price per square meter will rise to 750,000 yuan. The price per square meter on Julu Road, which she is about to move to, is 1 million yuan.
She doesn't need a promotion; how much money will she get as a bonus?
What may seem like a short-sighted act is, in this sensitive time, the most discreet way to reap the greatest rewards in the future.
And yet you still want to ask her which one to choose? It's already a sign of the fairy's kindness that she didn't take everything that was in her sight; she didn't ask for an exorbitant amount.
Having probably figured this out, Yang Fen's expression turned grim, and he ultimately decided not to try and fool people anymore.
Looking out the window at the receding scenery, Mu Xia asked, "How many Western-style buildings on this street have been requisitioned by work units?"
Yang Fen wiped his sweat. Finally, someone spoke up. During that half-minute of silence, he almost thought that these two old men had changed their minds and wanted his mayoral position instead of the mansion!
Although this assumption is invalid, what if it happens? What if those two scoundrels open their mouths? How embarrassing would that be? How would they ever face each other again?
At this moment, Mu Xia was quite enthusiastic when she asked her question. She pointed to several buildings, some of which were confiscated after the start of the Cultural Revolution, and others were rented out by individuals to work units for office purposes.
Mu Xia wrote down the house numbers that were still in the hands of individuals.
She wants it, so she can buy it.
We cannot exchange them under any pretext, otherwise it will definitely arouse suspicion in Haishi.
Two people from Beijing came, wanting nothing but eyeing a few dilapidated houses that were over a hundred years old.
Even if she couldn't figure out the details right away, she would have kept the house under control so that no one else would try to take advantage of it.
The car was parked in front of an old Western-style house with a red-tiled roof and exposed wood structure, standing alone along the street. The two large wooden doors were etched with the marks of time and vicissitudes.
Yang Fen gritted his teeth and pushed open the gate. What came into view was a south-facing garden, which he estimated to be about 300 square meters in size. It had a main building and an auxiliary building structure, with a walkway on the west side leading directly to the auxiliary building.
The main building is over 300 square meters, the annex is 50 square meters, the usable area is over 400 square meters, and the land area is 550 square meters.
The garden could fit seven or eight cars. It had been uninhabited and neglected for a long time, and weeds grew everywhere. Yet, Ruan Xianxian could imagine how beautiful the garden would be after it was landscaped!
Upon entering, you'll find a large living room with a two-bay layout.
An old fireplace was preserved, and apart from that, the living room has no other furnishings, creating a sense of layered progression between the rooms.
In Feng Shui terms, it means reaching a higher level.
Go up to the terrace, which is also the roof of the annex building.
The annex mainly houses the maid's room and the kitchen.
The three were shown around. Well, the design was quite interesting; the study's door could lead to either the hallway or the master bedroom.
Walking inside, not being familiar with the layout, I felt a bit dizzy.
After pushing open countless doors, Yang Fen led everyone to the master bedroom, which was different from the three or four-meter-high ceilings on Mingren Road.
Every building here features a pointed roof design, and the high ceilings create a beautiful and natural feel.
The master bedroom on the second floor is a two-room layout facing south, with a balcony overlooking a courtyard planted with sycamore trees.
This house is practically perfect except for having too many doors. Just by looking at the shining eyes of Ruan Xianxian and Mu Xia, you can tell it's their dream love room!
Yang Fen didn't need to turn around; just by feeling the slightly rapid and heavy breathing behind him, he knew that the wedding house he had prepared for his grandson was doomed.
He made a last-ditch effort, "There's another building along Gaoyou Road, should we go take a look?"
"Oh?" Ruan Xianxian asked with a smile. "Is Gaoyou Road also Hudec's pioneering work?"
If it weren't for his profound self-cultivation and self-control, Yang Fen would have loved to slap this bastard into the mud.
You know everything? If you know everything, why are you asking? Tell me you know everything! You've been leading me around all day asking this and that, what the hell are you asking?!
Are you kidding me?!
He took a deep breath, his lips twitching stiffly. "Who is László Hudec? Is he very powerful? If you're interested, you can ask him when you get back."
Ruan Xianxian said "Oh" again, "Then let's go take a look."
Driving to another Western-style building, the sense of history was overwhelming. How to put it? Standing inside and looking at the decorations and layout, I felt a dull and uncomfortable feeling.
Before they had finished their tour, Gong Ye pulled them away, and Yang Fen followed behind, asking, "What's wrong? Why are you going to do this if you haven't finished? There's a restroom on the second floor too."
He clearly misunderstood!
Miyano turned back, her eyes icy, her tone a half-smile, "What happened in this house? Do you want me to tell you?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Fen's eyes flickered slightly. "Are you trying to talk about the history of this building? It's true that people have died here, but which old Western-style building hasn't had its share of deaths?"
Miyano: "Indeed."
"But the accident room, which was suspected by Principal Jiang of colluding with the enemy and betraying the country, was used to send enemy agents to wipe out the entire family overnight, not even sparing a three-year-old child. Such an accident room is rare in the entire city of Haishi!"
Yang Fen was surprised that the person in front of him knew even this kind of thing. Knowing it was one thing, but to be able to recite it in detail required a very deep understanding of this area.
Thinking about the origins of the three people in front of him, he couldn't help but think of a certain possibility, and in an instant, he got goosebumps all over his body.
It's said that the 507th Xuanmen School produces many talented people. Could it be that he saw something in this room that ordinary people can't see?
The thought of transferring the building to his granddaughter sent chills down his spine, making the hairs on his body stand on end.
Perhaps because he had done too many bad things, he was especially afraid of being haunted by vengeful spirits. It wasn't until he got in the car and drove some distance that his complexion gradually returned to normal.
He regained his usual composure and said, "What do you three think? If you're not satisfied, I can go back and discuss it with other departments."
There are still old houses!
Ruan Xianxian looked at Gong Ye, and without her saying anything, he understood that she had her eye on the two apartments with Romeo balconies on Julu Road and Mingren Road.
"The earliest one was the building where Shanghai Electric Power Company had its offices. If I wanted it, wouldn't the pretty ladies there be unhappy?"
Seeing that she had indeed taken a liking to that building, Yang Fen's smile deepened.
Isn't it understandable to be unhappy?
However, Shanghai Electric Power Company (SHEP) always had a desire to break free from control, and the revocation of several of its offices was a small lesson learned from above.
A few country folks joined the game; using them as bargaining chips was just right.
No matter how much they hate them, they don't dare to take action against the Hai Gang. Someone has to take the blame and let the Shangdian gang vent their anger, right?
This can also be considered compensation for taking away the villa that I gave to my grandson.
Back at the hotel, the four chatted and laughed, looking like very close friends.
Yang Fen invited everyone to dinner, intending to finalize the decision on which two buildings to provide over the meal.
Ruan Xianxian politely declined, then asked with a meaningful smile, "Where is the encrypted phone number? I need to make a call to Beijing before finalizing anything."
It's right to consult elders before buying a house, but when faced with the woman's meaningful expression and her request for encrypted phone calls, his heart pounded and he had a bad feeling.
Arriving at an office on the top floor, Ruan Xianxian dialed an encrypted number that had been forwarded eight times...
