Chapter 107 Riverside Arc de Triomphe



Xia Yu, who was still in the elevator, didn't expect that his casual words would bring Jiang Lei a critical hit of 10,000 points.

Without children, one will not understand the joy of being a parent. Jiang Lei's daily life basically revolves around going back and forth between the company and home. At his level, he no longer needs too many social engagements. But just when he gradually became free, he discovered that his daughter had already gone to college.

Fortunately, his daughter attends a local university, so the time he enjoys most every week is the weekend when he drives her to school in person.

In this short hour or so, Jiang Lei could chat and talk with his daughter, but now his only enjoyment has been deprived.

"Then Daddy will take you to school with your classmates, okay?"

Jiang Lei was still struggling. Seeing this, Bai Lu covered her mouth and tried hard not to laugh.

"No need, Dad. My classmate has a car!"

“Hahahahaha~~”

Hearing her daughter say this, Bai Lu couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter, holding her stomach. At this moment, Jiang Lei was like a deflated ball, and he looked listless.

“Ding~~”

When we reached the 20th floor, the elevator door slowly opened, revealing a set of expensive-looking solid wood shoe cabinets in the spacious elevator hall.

Because there is one apartment per elevator, the elevator lobby is the outer entrance of Xia Yu's house. Umbrellas and shoes can be placed outside, and next to the shoe cabinet is a thick dark brown wooden door.

The lock on the wooden door was indeed a fingerprint lock, and Xia Yu casually pressed his thumb on it.

“Ding~~”

The door lock opened and he walked into the inner hallway. All the lights turned on sensorily when he heard the movement, and the entire new house appeared in front of Xia Yu.

The dining room and living room are connected, and the 3.6-meter ceiling height makes people feel not oppressive at all. Outside the wide floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room is a large terrace.

From here you can overlook the other side of the Huangpu River, and the river view room is truly worthy of its name.

Xia Yu found the remote control on the coffee table in the living room, which displayed various functions such as curtains, fresh air, floor heating, and lights.

I randomly pressed a curtain, and saw the curtains in the living room slowly closing one layer at a time, blocking out the lights of thousands of homes in the distance outside the window.

Is this a smart home system?

It looks like it has more advanced functions than the presidential suite!

Xia Yu continued to walk inside. The overall decoration of this apartment was European style, a combination of modern and classical styles. It was young, lively and not frivolous, which was very consistent with his aesthetic.

This is not to say that Chinese style is bad, but that kind of extremely expensive mahogany furniture does not match a house like this at all, and forcing it together will make it look ugly.

As a gourmet, Xia Yu looked at the kitchen first after the living room and dining room. The design of this house with both Chinese and Western kitchens was enough for him to show off his cooking skills.

The house is fully equipped with a built-in double-door refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave oven, and oven, plus cabinets that look very expensive. Xia Yu said they are all brands he doesn't recognize.

Further inside the kitchen is the storage room, and further inside is the nanny's room, which is equipped with a toilet and shower system. No wonder Jiang Baiying's family can hire a nanny.

But Xia Yu now has a nanny room, so can he hire a maid?

Cough cough!

Without a good candidate, the plan has to be shelved temporarily. It’s better to hire a part-time worker to do the cleaning and other things!

The only thing left from the kitchen is the bedroom. Houses over 300 square meters basically have four rooms, and Xia Yu's is no exception.

The four rooms consist of three bedrooms with bathrooms and a study with bathrooms. This is too corrupt. The study can also be used for taking a shower and going to the toilet. The villa he rented didn’t have this!

The best bedroom is the master bedroom. In addition to its large area, it also has the largest terrace and an additional dressing room.

Similarly, Xia Yu also found a safe in the cloakroom. Rich families all have this thing. He immediately set a password and stuffed the house deed in it.

After walking around the new house, Xia Yu's stomach was growling with hunger, so he hurried downstairs to eat.

There is nothing to be particular about when you are alone. You just find a buffet nearby and have a meal. It doesn’t matter whether you make a profit or not. What matters is that Xia Yu fills his stomach.

After dinner, I went to buy some supplies while the mall was still open.

Our own farm can provide vegetables, chickens, ducks, fish, shrimps, eggs and milk, but it cannot provide oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, nor can it provide fresh seafood. We can provide beef, but it is a bit like killing the chicken to get the eggs.

There was no need to buy a four-piece set or a quilt, as they were all readily available from big brands. Xia Yu even found some spare items to change into when he opened the wardrobe.

This is the good thing about the system, it takes care of all the necessary details. The only point I would deduct is that the refrigerator was not fully stocked and there was not a single roll of toilet paper.

What if I need to go to the toilet urgently? I can’t just go to Jiang Baiying’s house with my legs together to borrow money!

If the system had a feedback mechanism, Xia Yu would definitely write all of this down, hoping that they could improve it so that they could provide him with better services in the future.

Sure enough, what the song says is right, those who cannot get what they want are always in turmoil, while those who are favored are fearless.

Xia Yu, who is fearless, likes to watch others making trouble.

Xia Yu grabbed a cart of things before the mall closed, but after swiping his card he realized he had spent less than a thousand yuan.

The items were not expensive, but they were not easy to carry. The cashier packed six large bags for him, but they couldn't even fit in the trunk of the car, so the extra bag had to be placed on the passenger seat.

So whether you have a sports car or not, everyone agrees that sports cars are not practical at all except for being fast, especially two-door ones, which can only carry too little stuff.

It seems that the plan of buying a car has to be put on the agenda. It is not good to keep the three parking spaces empty all the time. It would be a good idea to buy an SUV for family use.

The extra parking space is also where his parents can park when they come to visit him in Shanghai. But thinking of his parents, he has to warn them about the house. After all, it costs 50 or 60 million yuan!

You can say that 100 million or 200 million were earned from Bitcoin speculation, but can you say the same about 50 or 60 million?

It seems to be really good. I haven't checked it for a few days and it has gone up a lot. It has risen to 1,267 US dollars per piece. However, it seems that the rise has not yet ended.

While waiting for the red light on the road, Xia Yu thought about it. He still had a lot of spare money in his account, which he didn't need for the time being. He could buy some and keep it there. Even if he lost money, it wouldn't be a pity.

It’s really not a pity, and some people can even make a lot of money.

In the future, Bitcoin continued to rise until it reached its peak at the end of 2017, but in a few months, Bitcoin trading would be banned in China.

Xia Yu doesn't know all this now. He came into contact with Bitcoin only because he wanted to find an excuse to deal with his family. Who would have thought that a blind cat would catch a dead mouse.

After returning to the downstairs of his house, Xia Yu ran down twice to get all the things upstairs. Then, without even taking a breath, he unpacked all the packages that needed to be unpacked and sorted all the things into categories.

After washing up, Xia Yu went to the master bedroom and lay down. Even after turning off the lights, he still felt that today was like a dream. It seemed that as soon as he woke up, he would open his eyes and find himself in the cramped 504 again.
