3 Crystal Palace

The serial number and account number were in black and if one did not look carefully, they might not be able to tell it was there.

There was also a key fob for his motorcycle, and he could just tell from the key that it was very beautiful.

He had never driven in a motorcycle before but he somehow got excited just thinking about going for a ride on one.

The traffic in Jiangbei was no joke. To him, it was better to drive a bike than to drive a vehicle worth a couple of million yuan just to sit in traffic for hours.

That aside, it was time to check the changes that happened after the system upgrade.

This layout was easy to understand and he could basically get what the system was meant for.

The overall situation was that every time he spent money, he would get money depending on the level he had reached.

Previously it was 10 times the amount he spent, but after the level up, he had reached 100 times.

The availability of the status feature also showed that the system was not the kind he first thought it was. All he could say at the moment was the more he leveled up, the more features he could get.

The lottery tickets were also divided in ranks, but he had yet to see the difference. This confused him a bit, but he chalked it up to his Extreme Luck skill.

With this skill, the ranks might have been rendered useless, or at least it made sure he got some good stuff.

As for whether what he got was randomly selected or not, he did not care at the moment. Everything he had drawn up till now fit him perfectly and did not seem random at all.

Lu Fan did not spend much time in the hotel.

He did not feel safe enough in that place, and there was a bike out there waiting for him.

After dressing up, he quickly exited the building to find a metallic mat black motorcycle parked right outside the establishment.

The moment he saw the vehicle, his Extreme Driver kicked in and details of the motorbike appeared in his brain.

(Suzuki Hayabusa.

Its bodywork vividly conveys a modern image of advanced performance and features, the wind-cutting silhouette and overall quality lines trace from the front fairing and fuel tank through to the tail section, projecting the aura of high quality and luxury, yet with an aggressive performance stance offering superb wind protection...)

He had to say that it was truly an amazing piece.

Feeling the handlebar, he had a distinct feeling that this machine could do wonders in his hands.

He had never handled a vehicle before, but he got a natural… oneness with the bike.

Looking through its body, he found the compartment and sure enough, he found a folder with documents and a string of keys.

The crowd was starting to form and he decided to get out of there.

Sitting a top, the bike came to life as he smoothly rode away.

Alice was having a very stressful day.

Someone bought the whole building all of a sudden and she had no idea who did.

There was no contact info or anything for that matter.

All she knew was that the man was called Lu Fan and that he would personally visit to see the place.

The problem was that this was the main building in the Crystal Palace. Building number one.

The people living there could not be said to be the cream of Jiangbei, but they were not simple people either.

Today was supposed to be the day they all renewed their leases, but the building had already changed owners and it was tough to say when the owner would visit.

She was just a small property manager and any of the tenants there could mess with her if they were dissatisfied.

Her studies abroad had not gone so well and her parents had gotten sick forcing her to come back and work in this kind of place.

But that was beside the point.

She had been receiving calls since morning from the tenants asking her to take their money but she was helpless.

Her negotiation skills could only do so much and the tenants were starting to get as anxious as she was.

One had to know that the Crystal Palace was one of the biggest residential districts closest to the center of Jiangbei.

Its main gate was right at the border of the CBD and what made it most attractive was that it was also neighboring the education district.

Most schools were in this area.

From kindergarten to university.

The Jiangbei University was just a kilometer away from this place, making it the ideal place for students, parents, and teachers.

Building number 1 in particular held the most influential of the bunch.

If that was it, she might not be as nervous.

But the tenants of the 30th to the 34th floor were on a different league.

They had very high positions in the Jiangbei city government and she did not feel comfortable making them wait.

The only thing that made her calm down a bit was that the building had a new owner.

Such a building could not be bought just with money. This single building cost several hundred million yuan but that was not the issue.

It was easier to buy all the buildings in Crystal Palace than to buy a single building. Especially this building.

Politics had a lot to do with it but the main point was the tenants of said building.

Buying this specific building would seem like you were targeting them and those tenants would not sit by and watch.

Who could say for sure that once the building was bought, the owner would not evict all of them? What if he raised the rent to an absurd level?

There were indeed rules and laws against this, but a person capable of buying such a building surely had the means to go around them.

It was clear that it was not for business, and at worst, he would just give them a notice and chase them away.

The cost of buying the building was way beyond its true value.

And in this city, who would get the time and money to move around? Getting such prime property was almost impossible, and the rent was also absurd.

The tenants would rather increase the rent than move to another place.

As she was pacing around nervously, she heard a knock and the receptionist entered her office.

"Excuse me, Alice. There is a young man called Lu Fan saying that he just bought building number 1. I don't know how to handle it, and told him to wait a moment."

Alice did not hear the rest of it.

She quickly made her way to the lobby and was stunned by the sight.

There sat an impossibly handsome man holding a folder in one hand as he fiddled with his phone.

She did not know what to say.

She had thought that the person who bought the building would be some greasy middle-aged man and this made her somewhat uncomfortable.

It might sound narcissistic, but she was absolutely confident in her looks.

Her voluptuous and plump figure was one thing. But the fatal attraction to these lecherous men and spoiled young masters was her foreign and exotic looks.

She had already lost count of how many people had tried to get her to bed. It was a good thing that her boss was female or she might have found herself in a tight spot.

But the man in front of her made her feel… inferior? She was not sure how she felt, but just looking at him made her feel refreshed and energetic.

If he were to go after her, she might consider it.

{I want your Power Stones, Summoning pens, and Golden Tickets. Hand them over before you upset this young master.}
