24: Chapter 24: Buying a House 24: Chapter 24: Buying a House Ye Xuan laughed at himself, wondering what had gotten into him. It was nothing more than the tender feelings of youth, yet they had left him with much to reflect on. Regaining control of his chaotic thoughts, Ye Xuan stepped out of his house and headed toward the city center of Jiangnan City. Buying a house! Yes, Ye Xuan was prepared to buy a house. When he had obtained that ill-gotten wealth from Wu Jun’s hands, he had already decided to provide a better environment for his family. A full 500 million Xia Country Coins could easily buy a complete villa in Jiangnan City, to say the least. If someone asked where the upper-class lived most densely in Jiangnan City? The answer: Biyun Pavilion. Officials, business elites, and celebrities considered it an honor to reside in Biyun Pavilion. Moreover, countless overnight millionaires, eager to enter the upper echelons of society, would definitely buy a villa in Biyun Pavilion to signify their status. Of course, the real dignitaries wouldn’t personally go to Biyun Pavilion to buy a house. When the properties were first put on sale, the villas were already reserved for them. The ones who truly went to Biyun Pavilion to buy a property were mostly those whose wealth had suddenly increased, such as from land occupation, house demolitions, or receiving substantial state compensation. The villas they bought were not only expensive and located in obscure places, but in order to step into the so-called upper class, they were also willing to spend a great deal of money on a villa in Biyun Pavilion. At this moment, in the cold winter, there weren’t many people at the Biyun Pavilion sales office. A few saleswomen idled away their time; some were touching up their makeup, others were chatting on the phone with their boyfriends, making the sales office appear somewhat deserted. Ye Xuan strolled through the sales hall, occasionally examining the positions of the villas on the sand table, accompanied by a young and beautiful saleswoman who kept explaining the details of each villa. There was no melodramatic disdain from the saleswoman, nor any mindless antagonists mocking Ye Xuan. These saleswomen had their own professional ethic and naturally wouldn’t do anything foolish. However, Xie Chuchu, who followed by Ye Xuan’s side, didn’t hold much hope for him buying a villa. In Xie Chuchu’s eyes, Ye Xuan was at most in his twenties, dressed simply, and was certainly not the type to have become rich overnight. As a saleswoman, Xie Chuchu met various clients every day. She had dealt with many young people like Ye Xuan, who often flirted with her but had never successfully closed a deal. Although Xie Chuchu didn’t hold high hopes for Ye Xuan, she answered every question he had with a smile, flawlessly maintaining her decorum. “Mr. Ye, this villa may be in a remote location, but it’s fully equipped, and the interior decoration was meticulously designed by a master. This is the best property we have,” Xie Chuchu explained patiently to Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan slowly shook his head and said, “No, this position is too far back. If I were to walk out, it would take about ten minutes. I am not considering this one.” “Hmm?” After Ye Xuan finished speaking, a villa sand model caught his eye, and he quickly walked over to examine it. “This position is good, not only is it in the center of the villa complex, but it’s also next to a botanical garden. The air quality should be excellent. Living here would greatly benefit my mother and sister’s health. How much is this villa?” Ye Xuan, immediately taken by this villa, directly asked for the price. Seeing Ye Xuan’s serious expression, Xie Chuchu paused slightly and then said, “This villa, including taxes and fees, is 35 million.” “Um, this set is fine, let’s sign the contract now,” Ye Xuan nodded, quite satisfied with the villa. “What... sir... what did you say?” Xie Chuchu asked with a trembling voice, hardly able to believe her own ears. Looking at Xie Chuchu’s bewildered expression, Ye Xuan frowned slightly, only able to repeat his earlier words. By the time he finished speaking, he had already taken out the Supreme Black Card, which fully awakened Xie Chuchu to the situation. Gazing at the Supreme Black Card in Ye Xuan’s hand, Xie Chuchu, being a sales representative, knew well the value of this card. She had seen such a card in the hands of a wealthy man before, and it was said that to own such a Supreme Black Card, one must have at least a hundred million Xia Country Coins in the card. Only at this moment did Xie Chuchu truly believe that this man, about her age, indeed intended to buy a house in Biyun Pavilion. “I’m sorry, Mr. Ye... but this villa is not for sale... Could you perhaps choose another one?” At this point, Xie Chuchu’s lips were tightly pressed, her emotions incredibly mixed because the villa Ye Xuan had taken an interest in was not meant to be sold to the public, but was reserved for another elite person. As a sales representative, she knew such a big deal could not be encountered even once a year. If the deal could actually happen, just the commission would amount to over a million, which would completely solve her family’s financial problems. However, since the company did not sell the villa Ye Xuan was interested in, Xie Chuchu was utterly disheartened, fearing that Ye Xuan would leave unsatisfied. “Not for sale to the public?” Looking at Xie Chuchu’s pale face, Ye Xuan furrowed his eyebrows. He had almost looked over all the villa models, and only this house had caught his interest; the others were simply out of consideration. “My mother is not in good health, so the surrounding air quality must be fresh. Since this villa is not for sale, I’ll go look elsewhere.” Although the woman in front of him was looking at him with pleading eyes, how could Ye Xuan choose a poor environment for a stranger? Having said this, Ye Xuan prepared to leave, but just as he took two steps, Xie Chuchu’s face turned pale, and she quickly blocked his path, pleading, “Mr. Ye, please wait, let me ask the manager if we can sell this house to you.” “Um, all right,” Ye Xuan pondered for a few seconds and then agreed. “Thank you, thank you.” With Ye Xuan’s reply, Xie Chuchu expressed gratitude, bowed to Ye Xuan, and hurried towards the manager’s office. Ye Xuan sat on the sofa in the sales hall, patiently waiting, but even after a full twenty minutes had passed, there was still no sign of Xie Chuchu, which gradually caused Ye Xuan’s brows to furrow. His Divine Sense drifted out, revealing a scene before his eyes. Inside the manager’s office. A middle-aged man, with a cold expression, was scolding Xie Chuchu, “How are you handling this? Didn’t I tell you that house is not for sale?” “Manager, Mr. Qi has not paid any deposit yet, and Mr. Ye wants to buy the house for his mother. This house is right near the botanical garden, which would be greatly beneficial for his mother’s health. He is ready to sign the contract now, can’t you make an exception?” “What Mr. Ye Leaf, Mr. Ye of the Leaf? Just a nouveau riche, can he compare with Young Master Qi?” “I have already promised Young Master Qi; even if he ends up not buying, this house cannot be sold,” the middle-aged man vehemently chastised Xie Chuchu.
