Thanks to Ye Weiwei's special effects smoke, the two of them took down the Green Dragon Gang last night with almost no effort. It took much less time than he had expected, and they also reaped a great harvest.
Qin Xiao couldn't help but gasp when he thought of the treasures that filled several warehouses that his little wife had taken from the Green Dragon Gang yesterday.
With his wife possessing such extraordinary abilities, he is virtually invincible.
Remembering that his wife still needed his help with something from Mr. Yu, Qin Xiao quickly asked, "Mr. Yu, are there any suitable villas for sale around here? Like your house, a big one?"
Upon hearing their inquiry about houses, Mr. Yu immediately became interested, "Are you thinking of buying property in Gangcheng?"
Does this mean they plan to stay here permanently?
Qin Xiao knew he had misunderstood and smiled, "I just thought the environment here was nice and wanted to buy a place so it would be convenient to come and go in the future."
Mr. Yu: "I know a few real estate agents who specialize in real estate transactions. They can help you ask about the prices..."
Qin Xiao: "Then I'll trouble you to ask around for me. We can figure out how to get the money. We brought some ginseng with us this time. If we put it at an auction house, we should be able to get a good price."
"Ginseng? What kind?"
Because his family was small and had been the only son in several generations, Yu's father was very interested in these precious Chinese medicinal herbs. When he heard Qin Xiao mention ginseng, he immediately became interested.
Qin Xiao asked calmly, "I wonder how much a wild ginseng that's over two hundred years old is worth?"
Mr. Yu stood up excitedly, "How old is it? Two hundred? Are you sure?"
Qin Xiao nodded reservedly.
Mr. Yu clenched his fist tightly. "Why bother with an auction house! Just sell it to me! I'll offer a higher price than the auction house would!"
Qin Xiao glanced at Yu's father, then nodded: "Alright, I'll go get it for you to take a look at. We can discuss the price if you think it's suitable."
"Okay, okay."
Qin Xiao went out of the study to find Ye Weiwei, and returned shortly after, placing a brocade box on the table and pushing it in front of Yu's father.
Mr. Yu excitedly opened the box and saw a robust ginseng tied with a red thread inside. The ginseng rootlets were intact, and the ginseng was of excellent quality. The rich medicinal fragrance wafted into his nose, and just looking at it made him feel happy.
Yu's father was quite knowledgeable; he could estimate the age of this ginseng just by looking at it.
"This isn't just over two hundred years old, this wild ginseng is at least two hundred and fifty years old! These days, such a good thing is extremely rare, you can't buy it even if you have money. Are you really going to make a move?"
Qin Xiao nodded.
If her young wife wanted to get her hands on this, it would be a piece of cake.
He watched this ginseng grow right under his nose, from a seed to its current size, in less than three minutes.
Seeing Qin Xiao's resolute attitude, Yu's father was even more pleased. After thinking for a while, he said, "These kinds of things are extremely rare, even at auctions these days. Two years ago, a 160-year-old piece was auctioned in Hong Kong, and it sold for over a million. It's really hard to say what price to set for this one."
"How about this? Aren't you looking to buy property? I have another one nearby, a little bigger than this one. It's a detached house, but since there aren't many people in my family, it hasn't been properly maintained. If you're interested, you can go take a look. If it's suitable, how about we barter?"
Qin Xiao readily agreed, "Okay, let's go over there and take a look."
As if afraid that Qin Xiao would change his mind, Yu's father wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible, so he invited Qin Xiao and Ye Weiwei to go over there and take a look.
That place is indeed not far from here, and its area is larger than that of Yu's father's villa.
However, the place where Mr. Yu and his family live is the Yu family's ancestral home. At that time, Mr. Yu bought the land next to it, intending to incorporate the entire area into the Yu family's ancestral home and make it a unified whole. However, after consulting a feng shui master, the feng shui master said that the Yu family has few members and one ancestral home is enough for them to live in. It is not good to carve out another piece of land to dilute the family's fortune.
So Mr. Yu gave up on that idea, and the place remained untouched.
Now that he hears that Qin Xiao and Ye Weiwei want to buy property here, and he also wants to befriend them, exchanging that property for ginseng would be the best option.
“Although no one lives here, I have people come to clean and maintain it regularly. It’s just that there are fewer houses than our ancestral home; it’s just this one detached villa.”
Ye Weiwei saw that the house was uninhabited and very clean. The villa was decorated in a European style and had all the furniture and decorations. She could move in as soon as she removed the dust cover and had someone do a little cleaning.
Moreover, the yard is really big, with a swimming pool, greenhouse and everything else. Even the paved paths in the yard are very stylish. Ye Weiwei fell in love with it at first sight.
Seeing that Ye Weiwei was satisfied, Qin Xiao said to his father, "Then let's do as President Yu said and barter."
Mr. Yu immediately burst into laughter, "Good! That's straightforward!"
The land where he built this house is now worth at least three or four million in Hong Kong, which is more valuable than that wild ginseng. But who can blame him when the wild ginseng is so rare and precious?
He'll definitely regret missing out on this wild ginseng!
Neither party objected, and Mr. Yu immediately asked his friend to help with the transfer of ownership. By the afternoon, Ye Weiwei had a freshly issued property ownership certificate in her hand.
Qin Xiao didn't know why his wife liked buying houses so much, but seeing how happy she was all afternoon, he felt happy too.
Therefore, when Ye Weiwei suggested that if there were suitable properties, they would like to buy a few more properties and shops here, he agreed without hesitation.
Last night, they seized three large boxes of gold from the Green Dragon Gang. Even if they didn't sell the ginseng, that much gold would be enough for them to buy whatever they wanted.
However, the young wife seems to prefer trading with ginseng.
The next day at noon, the Yu family's driver took them to the restaurant they had arranged to meet Hua Sichen.
Upon entering the private room, Hua Sichen was already waiting inside.
The three exchanged a few pleasantries and ordered food.
While waiting for the food to be served, Ye Weiwei gave Hua Sichen the prepared thank-you gift.
"I have to thank Young Master Hua for what happened last time. If you hadn't woken us up and brought us out in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Hua Sichen looked at the box that was pushed in front of him and laughed, "You're being too polite. It was just a small favor for me. Besides, you wouldn't have been in any trouble even without me."
Qin Xiao said solemnly, "It's a small favor for you, but it's a lifesaver for me. Please don't refuse."
Seeing their sincerity, Hua Sichen smiled and said, "Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony."
