Episode 32 Big Move

  "Ah?" Upon hearing this, Guan Yue was first stunned, then overjoyed, almost disbelieving her own ears. She subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of air and hastily asked: "You really plan to buy the Shanhe Residence?"

  "Ah, since you've spoken so highly of this place and I happen to be in need of a house right now, I'll naturally have to buy it." Li Yan's face broke into a faint smile as he readily agreed with Guan Yue.

  "Have you really decided?!" Guan Yue couldn't believe it, because normally, selling a villa would require multiple viewings, contacts, price negotiations, payment method confirmations and contract terms, which usually takes several months or even half a year. How could it be so fast?!

  Besides, the villas in Ocean Garden are so expensive that even if we consider the entire country's first-tier cities, not just Donghai City, they would still be among the highest. As a salesgirl for Ocean Garden, selling one villa within half a year is already an excellent sales performance, and the commission alone would be several hundred thousand yuan. And that's only for ordinary villas; as for those like Shanheju, which are estate-style villas, they're in a completely different league.

  The original sale price of Shanhe House was as high as 1.3 billion, but Longtan City is a national-level metropolis, and there are not many people who can afford it. However, since the news about Shanhe House being haunted spread, this most luxurious villa has been deserted, even if the price drops again and again, it still cannot be sold.

  However, Guan Yue never thought that this luxurious villa, which had almost become a heart disease for the Hailing Group, would be sold to himself so easily, and even more surprisingly, all the troubles in between were eliminated. This unexpected surprise was almost enough to stun Guan Yue.

  Li Yan looked at her with a hint of puzzlement, smiling as he said: "Yes, I've decided to buy this place. Bring the contract over and let me take a look. If everything is in order, I'll sign it right now."

  "Okay, sir." Guan Yue's small face flushed with excitement as she nodded repeatedly. In fact, when she brought Li Yan to see the house earlier, she didn't think he could afford a villa in Ocean Garden, let alone a mansion like Shanheju. She did it only because she was new to this line of work and hadn't yet gained experience or understood the ways of the world. Seeing Li Yan being ridiculed by her colleagues, she felt sorry for him and brought him over out of sympathy and courtesy.

  But to be honest, it was just a casual invitation, and she never expected that this young man in ordinary clothes would have such a big hand, casually taking out hundreds of millions to buy a luxury villa?! If Li Yan's speech didn't have the slightest hint of a Cantonese or Hong Kong accent, she would have almost thought he was the grandson of that Li Dahan from Hong Kong.

  "Now that I've signed the contract, how long will it take to move into Shanheju?" Seeing Guan Yue's excited expression, Li Yan could guess why, but thinking back to when he sold his first pot of tea flowers over ten days ago, he wasn't any different. He smiled and asked a question.

  "Ah?" Guan Yue suddenly turned around, his face involuntarily smiling awkwardly, and hastily replied: "For a high-end villa like Shanheju, our company has special procedures, so it's not difficult to handle. You just need to sign, and wait three to five days, then you can move in."

  "It's like that, it's also good." Li Yan nodded, in three to five days' time, he wasn't in a hurry, anyway, he still had to spend some effort solving the matter of the dragon beast in the underground dark river, and he didn't mind much about it.

  Because the contract was at the sales office, the two of them drove down the mountain immediately. This section of mountain road is not far, but from Shanheju to the foot of the mountain, it's at least three or four kilometers. Li Yan thought to himself, it seems that after he and his mother move in here, buying a car and hiring a driver will also have to be put on the agenda. Otherwise, for himself, it doesn't matter, but for his mother, whether going out or coming back, it's not very convenient.

  The car turned a corner, and on the mountain road down from the west, just as it was about to reach the foot of the mountain, a sleek silver Hummer suddenly appeared in front of it. Guan Yue, being just a salesgirl, naturally didn't dare to collide with the owner of this luxurious house, so she quickly turned her car around and pulled over to the side. Unexpectedly, the silver Hummer stopped abruptly as it passed by Guan Yue's car, and just as she was filled with confusion, a hearty laugh came from inside: "Mr. Li Yan, I didn't expect to run into you here?!"

  Li Yan looked at the fat man driving and slightly stunned, then smiled: "It's actually Boss Fang, what a coincidence! Are you also here to buy a house?"

  The one driving the silver Hummer was none other than Fang Yuan, the big boss of Bai Jing Garden. He hadn't expected to run into him here, and both of them quickly got out of the car.

  "The house has been bought long ago, it's on the mountain." Fang Yuan smiled and responded with a "hmm", then suddenly thought of something and asked in surprise: "What, Mr. Li you're also here to buy a house? This is great, we two can be companions, let's take a look at which one, call Lin Shao over, he'll give you a discount, this Haiyang Garden is developed by their family's Hailin Group."

  "It turns out that the Hailin Group was actually Lin Shao's family business, I really didn't expect this." Li Yan said, seemingly remembering something, and flipped open his wallet to find the name card that Lin Xincheng had given him, only to discover that indeed, one of them was the CEO of the Hailin Group.

  At this time, Li Yan finally looked at the several business cards that Lin Xincheng had given him one by one, and only then did he know that Lin Xincheng was actually the sole heir of the Hailin Group and also held the title of General Manager of the Hailin Group. However, since he had already decided to buy Shanheju, he didn't want to make a fuss about this matter either. After all, it's not good to owe people favors when you have money. So, with a smile, he said: "Forget it, anyway I'm going to buy it, so that little bit of discount doesn't matter."

  Fang Yuan was taken aback, but then smiled and said: "That's also true, after all, this is their family business. Although Lin Shao can waive a few million dollars in price, compared to the nearly 100 million yuan price of the villa, it's nothing. On the contrary, he owes someone a favor for nothing. By the way, Mr. Li, which house on Longkou Mountain do you fancy?"

  "It's just Mount River Residence." Li Yan didn't hide it either and immediately responded.

  "Shanhe residence?!" Fangyuan's eyes widened suddenly, and he said in shock: "I've heard that building is haunted......"

  Li Yan smiled and said: "This kind of thing, if you believe it then it exists, if you don't believe it then it doesn't exist. I just happen to be someone who doesn't believe."

  Fang Yuan shook his head, and then raised a big thumb to smile: "Mr. Li indeed has the courage, actually I didn't believe it either, at first I also liked that place, but the price was a bit expensive, Lin Shao was constrained by his old man, saying that he wouldn't dare to lower the price too much, so I took West Mountain No. 1 Villa."

  "Old Fang is joking, with his wealth, it's not like 80 or 90 million can't be taken out!" Li Yan smiled and spoke out.

  Mr. Li smiled wryly and said, "You don't know this, but if it's for business, even tens of millions more wouldn't be a problem. However, if I dared to spend so much money buying a house for myself to live in, my old man would skin me alive."

  Li Yan burst out laughing and said: "This is the key point."

  Fang Yuan shook his head, changing the subject with a smile: "Alright, Mr. Li, you still want to buy a house, I won't disturb you anymore. How about we invite Lin Shao at noon and gather at the Seaside Hotel?"

  "That's a good idea, I just bought a house, let me invite you all, and also call that Liu Wei manager. Let's have a lively gathering." After all, no matter what, this fat guy is also one of his big clients, it's not good to shut him down with one sentence. Besides, buying a villa cost himself a lot of money, just last night he had just cultivated a pot of eighteen scholars, and now he has the opportunity to sell it to him and make some profit!

  Immediately, the two returned to the car. Guan Yue's gaze at Li Yan was vastly different now. As one of the few top-notch homeowners in Haiyang Garden, Fang Yuan, although new, was also acquainted with her. As the boss of Tangtang Baijing Garden, his net worth was no less than tens of billions, belonging to that kind of extremely powerful and influential big shot. In her eyes, since Li Yan could interact with such a top-notch tycoon, his identity and status were naturally unimaginable.

  "Let's drive, we still need to sign the contract." Seeing Guan Yue seemed a bit distracted, Li Yan smiled and spoke up, reminding him with a sentence.

  "Oh?" Guan Yue was taken aback for a moment, then quickly came to her senses and started the car, driving down the mountain road directly to the sales department.
