First, I played around in various places, and then I went to the claw machine and won a total of 9 plush toys.
This made Zhou Wenyi extremely excited and happy. She clapped and cheered from time to time, and looked at him with adoring and passionate eyes.
Gu Wei later asked the receptionist for a large bag and put his spoils inside.
Zhou Wenyi snatched it and treated it like a precious treasure.
Gu Wei and the other two walked out of the amusement park, and pointed jokingly at the plush toys, "It seems like we came here to buy some."
"It really does look like it." Zhou Wenyi was so amused by him that she couldn't straighten up.
After a while, the laughter finally subsided, and he gave her a thumbs up, praising, "You're really amazing! I'm so happy today!"
Gu Wei put his arm around her, saying, "I'm very happy too."
I've already achieved financial freedom, so there are many high-end places I can go on dates.
But he still prefers this down-to-earth place.
Zhou Wenyi clearly enjoyed it, finding immense joy in something so simple.
The car drove into the underground parking lot of the high-rise building.
Neither Gu Wei nor Zhou Wenyi rushed to get out of the car.
The couple, having tasted the sweetness of love, then staged another heart-wrenching scene of parting in the car...
Gu Wei was enjoying great success in love, and this naturally reflected in his overall demeanor.
The next day, he met with Hou Yongxian and Ke Yi, and after catching up, he aroused curiosity.
"Gu Wei, why are you so happy? Did something good happen?"
Ke Yi chimed in, "Yes, Brother Gu, you seem really happy."
Gu Wei didn't want to tell others about her relationship so quickly.
In this timeline, there needs to be at least a delay, otherwise many things cannot be properly explained.
After all, he didn't have a girlfriend when Hou Yongxian and his group left the Forestry Bureau a few days ago.
"I did encounter some good news. I found a cheaper source of goods here, so I don't have to travel so far to buy them anymore."
Hou Yongxian was an experienced and shrewd man. He sensed that Gu Wei was not telling the truth, but he didn't say anything more.
Ke Yi believed him and honestly said, "That's really great. By the way, Brother Gu, I heard from the Marquis that you're planning to buy a few courtyard houses. Leave it to us. We'll definitely look for them and send you a telegram as soon as we get any news."
Gu Wei had always been very confident in Ke Yi's abilities, and said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll wait for your news."
The three chatted for a short while before Hou Yongxian's old friend arrived.
Hou Yongxian quickly stood up. "Gu Wei, let me introduce you. This is my old friend, Shen Tongyi."
"Hello, Grandpa Shen."
Gu Wei immediately greeted him politely, while secretly observing the other person.
Shen Tongyi was not tall, had sparse hair, large earlobes, wore a clothes with Chinese knot buttons, and had very ordinary facial features, but his eyes were bright yet showed signs of vicissitude.
Gu Wei was certain that this was also an old man with a story to tell.
Shen Tongyi had heard about Gu Wei's situation countless times from others.
Meeting him today, I can see that he is indeed a handsome man with a particularly clean and refined air about him.
"Good. The young man is very handsome."
After exchanging pleasantries, the four of them went to eat.
On the way, the conversation inevitably turned to Gu Wei's desire to buy a courtyard house.
Shen Tongyi gave Gu Wei a deep look. "This courtyard house is hot in summer and cold in winter. No matter what you do or how much money you have, you still have to use the public taps for washing clothes and eating, go to the public toilets outside, and empty the chamber pots early in the morning. Moreover, since the earthquake-resistant sheds were demolished that year, many families have added kitchens and small rooms, making the courtyard house a mess, like a tenement. Why not wait and buy an apartment later?"
Gu Wei knew that what the old man said was true. If he didn't have a cheat code, even if he bought a courtyard house, he wouldn't be able to build a toilet and would have to use a public toilet outside.
"I'm used to living in a single-story house, which is more convenient. I also like houses with a certain history; it's kind of a sentimental thing about them."
Shen Tongyi's expression shifted, and after hesitating for a long while, he asked again, "How big do you want to buy?"
"As long as it's a private house, with a property deed, and can be transferred, any size is fine."
Gu Wei knew that most courtyard houses were now in the hands of the housing management bureau and rented to ordinary people, which were called public housing.
As for private savings, most of them were bought or passed down by the older generation of the family. Some were returned after being returned to their original owners, while others simply changed hands.
Hou Yongxian knew his old friend well. Seeing his expression constantly changing, he said, "Gu Wei isn't an outsider. If you know anyone who wants to sell, just say so and help make a connection."
Shen Tongyi cautiously looked around, "Right now, even if you have private savings, you wouldn't dare to confidently say so. Besides, the courtyard house I know of was just coming back recently. It's a two-courtyard detached house in a prime location, covering more than 500 square meters with a building area of over 280 square meters, and the price they're asking for is simply astronomical..."
Gu Wei's eyes lit up immediately; this was truly a godsend.
He wasn't afraid of the courtyard house being too big or too expensive; his only fear was not finding someone to sell it to.
"Then tell me how much you want, I'd like to hear it."
Shen Tongyi gestured with his fingers and said in a low voice, "320,000."
Hou Yongxian and Ke Yi both gasped.
These days, even households with ten thousand yuan are extremely rare.
320,000 is a number I never dared to even imagine.
Gu Wei was secretly delighted.
Because he didn't think this amount of money was much.
Let's not even talk about decades from now, let's say the valuation is in the hundreds of millions.
