CHAPTER 22

"Dad, where is this and what are we doing here?"

Xu Ran looked at the community with ridiculously high walls and asked in surprise. Xu Fuhai did not answer his daughter's question, but asked Lin Mixue next to him, "Have the agent and the owner made an appointment?"

"Don't worry, we made an appointment last night. They should be waiting for us at the property management now."

As Lin Mixue spoke, she looked at the community in front of her with envy. Ordinary people who don't pay much attention to high-end communities may not know the significance of this community, but as an industry insider who has worked in the real estate sales industry for more than ten years, Lin Mixue knows this place very well. Wanliu Academy is recognized as one of the top three high-quality communities in the imperial capital. It has an excellent geographical location and surrounding facilities. As a luxury house, the distance between Wanliu Academy and the surrounding facilities is calculated in meters. 12 meters north of the door is the Baguo Station of Metro Line 10, 65 meters east is the Hualian Shopping Center with an area of ​​50,000 square meters that looks like a luxury cruise ship, and 500 meters north is a golf club! The most distinctive symbol of Wanliu Academy is the circle of 5-meter-high gray walls. Regarding the top luxury houses in the imperial capital, there is a folk jingle that says: Wanliu's wall, Xichen's jar, Xiaoba's top, Sunac's lake, Zichenyuan's tree, and Beipingfu's courtyard. Wanliu's wall ranks first. It encloses Wanliu Academy, which is about the size of 5 football fields. The exterior wall is made of Dutch handmade bricks, "shipped from the Netherlands piece by piece". Because there are minerals in the bricks, the color of the bricks is different every day due to the different angles of sunlight. Standing under the high wall, no one can look straight at Wanliu Academy. They must look up and look at the big trees sticking out of the wall and the spire of Wanliu Academy. The unchanging bricks extend straight for hundreds of meters, leaving no space for Wanliu Academy to be exposed. This wall tightly wraps Wanliu Academy, isolates the city roads in all directions, blocks the curious eyes of the outside world, and becomes a barrier between classes. The average unit price of 160,000 per square meter makes Wanliu's house an unattainable goal for many people throughout their lives. Of course, for Xu Fuhai today, the price of the house here is a bit higher, but it's just like that. Although he just bought a Porsche 911 for his daughter Xu Ran, there are still more than 60 million in his bank card. This amount of money may not be enough to buy a courtyard house in the imperial capital, or a mansion like Tomson Yipin in Shanghai, but it is more than enough to buy a house in Wanliu. Lin Mixue retracted her gaze from the high wall, turned around and said to Xu Ran: "Ranran, this is the Wanliu Academy community in the imperial capital, one of the best communities in the imperial capital. We came here today to look at houses. Your father is going to buy you a house here so that you can live there during school. He said that the conditions of your dormitory are too poor and he is afraid that you will suffer."

As she spoke, Lin Mixue's eyes flashed with endless envy. When she first heard Xu Fuhai's request, she almost suspected that her ears were out of order. Just because the dormitory conditions of her daughter's school were a little worse, he wanted to buy her a house nearby, and it was a house in the imperial capital. What kind of godly father is this? If possible, Lin Mixue would like to call Xu Fuhai dad! She is following Xu Fuhai now, and there is no specific work to do except driving. These two days have been spent on finding a house for Xu Fuhai. According to Xu Fuhai's requirements, it should be close to his daughter's school, and the location and quality of the community should be the best, regardless of the price. Under such requirements, Lin Mixue almost didn't have to choose much, and directly targeted Wanliu Academy. This place is in the same district as Xu Ran's school, and it takes less than half an hour to drive to the school. The location is excellent! Of course, it is not so easy for ordinary people to buy a house in the imperial capital casually. It is not just about having money, but also a series of purchase restrictions. But these problems were easily solved under the halo of money. Xu Fuhai just said a few words to President Li on the phone, and President Li personally helped Xu Fuhai to get it done. As a VIP client of ICBC, Xu Fuhai didn't have to go out by himself to handle such things. Of course, certain expenses were inevitable, but for Xu Fuhai, these were small expenses. Hearing Lin Mixue's words, Xu Ran was stunned. Her father had just given her a supercar, which had already shocked her, and now, her father was going to buy her a house! This is the imperial capital! Moreover, the location of this community, and the atmosphere of luxury houses everywhere, the housing prices here must be sky-high! "Dad, you...you want to buy me a house? Here?"

Xu Ran's eyes widened as he asked in disbelief. "Yes, this place is close to your school, and it's convenient for going to and from school. Isn't it better than living in that shabby dormitory? Didn't you say that before? Those roommates in the dormitory are not very good, so it's a good opportunity to move out and out of sight, out of mind!"

Xu Fuhai said with a smile. "But, but... the houses here are super expensive. Where did you get so much money, Dad?"

Xu Ran couldn't help asking. For her, today was a super magical day. Since the moment she met her father, he had brought her waves of shock, making her feel like she was dreaming! "You don't have to worry about this. Let's go in and see what the house is like. It's not easy to buy a house here. Your aunt Xue did a lot of homework to contact a good seller."

As Xu Fuhai spoke, he took the lead and walked into the community. After explaining the purpose of the visit and completing the registration, Xu Fuhai led the two women and finally stepped into this community that was extremely mysterious in the eyes of outsiders. As soon as they entered the community, they were greeted by a lush green, with rows of huge ginkgo trees covering the entire community in green. There are no high-rise buildings in the community, all of which are garden houses. Under the shade of green plants, it is very quiet and gives people a very comfortable feeling. The three people strolled in the community and couldn't help but sigh. The door of the community closed behind them, as if completely isolating the outside world. In the imperial capital where every inch of land is valuable, owning such a house is simply a dreamlike perfection! After walking for a few minutes, the three people came to the property, and before that, Lin Mixue had already made an appointment with the agent and the seller by phone. Several people sat down, and the agent and the seller briefly introduced the situation of the house. The house that Lin Mixue found is located in Building 9 near the central garden in the community. Although it is not the king of the building, it is also in an excellent location. The house is on the third floor, a prime floor, with a classic three-bedroom and two-living room layout of 135 square meters. According to the owner, all the materials used in the renovation were imported first-line brands, and the renovation alone cost more than 5 million yuan. "If it weren't for the bad business in the past two years, I really wouldn't want to sell this house. Houses in this community are definitely scarce resources. Even though the market is not good now, it depends on where it is. Wanliu's houses can be ranked among the top three in the entire imperial capital."

At the end of the introduction, the homeowner said with a hint of heartache, "That's right, Mr. Xu, Wanliu Academy is one of the best quality communities in the capital. It is definitely the wisest decision for you to buy a property here."

The agent also chimed in. Xu Fuhai nodded and said, "I have a general understanding of the situation. Let's go look at the house."

"Okay Mr. Xu, please go in, two beauties please."

Hearing Xu Fuhai's words, the agent quickly stood up and said, and the seller followed closely, walking with Xu Fuhai, and talking about the situation of his house from time to time along the way. In less than three minutes' walk, several people came to the downstairs of Building 9. As the seller and the agent said before, the location of this house is very good, close to the central park of the community, facing north and south, with a wide view. What's more rare is that this is a 6-story elevator house, and the third floor is the most golden floor. Stepping into the elevator and coming to the third floor, the seller opened the door. As soon as they entered the house, Xu Fuhai and the two women were attracted by the elegant and noble decoration of the room. The overall decoration style of the room is a light luxury route, with light-colored solid wood floors and walnut-colored facades, and a sense of luxury is overwhelming. In addition to a set of sofas and a huge LCD TV, there are no other extra items in the spacious living room, and it can be seen that they have been cleaned up. Looking at the other rooms again, the situation is roughly the same. Except for the bed and some custom-made furniture, other soft things have been packed away and need to be repurchased. Xu Fuhai looked at several rooms and walked around the living room. The more he looked, the more satisfied he was. Although this house is not as big as the one he lived in in Fu City, the 135-square-meter three-bedroom house is enough for his daughter to live in. The key is that the location and decoration of this house are really good. Xu Fuhai himself has fallen in love with it. Looking at his daughter Xu Ran, although he didn't say it, even Xu Fuhai could see the love in his eyes. It can be seen that his daughter Xu Ran has the same aesthetic as himself, and she is very satisfied with this house. But no matter how satisfied you are, you still have to bargain when it's time. Although Xu Fuhai now has a rich system, he can't be a sucker, right? "Mr. Xu, I've said just now that if it weren't for the lack of funds, I would definitely not be willing to sell this house. You can also inquire about the current market in Wanliu. A few days ago, a large flat of 280 square meters was auctioned for 100 million yuan! Although my house is small in size, it is absolutely practical, and the floor and location are the best. To be honest, the price of 38 million is really not expensive at all."

Seeing that Xu Fuhai was interested in buying the house, the seller was very determined to bargain. "That's not the case. The houses in Wanliu are good, but the average price is only about 160,000 yuan. According to your price, this house is almost 280,000 yuan per square meter. How can it be so high?"

Xu Fuhai said, "Those are the prices on the Internet. How can it be 160,000 yuan? A house was sold in this community two days ago. The location is far worse than mine, and the layout is not as good as mine. The average price per square meter is more than 250,000 yuan."

Hearing Xu Fuhai's words, the man said anxiously. Xu Fuhai did not reply to his words, but looked at Lin Mixue beside him. The latter nodded slightly, indicating that the seller was telling the truth. "Okay, in this case, I will not bargain with you any more. The price is 35 million. If it's okay, we will sign the contract today."

Xu Fuhai said, "35 million is definitely not enough. You just cut my price by 3 million. That's too harsh."

After hearing what Xu Fuhai said, the seller immediately quit. "You just said that you need funds urgently. If you agree, I can pay the full amount today. If 35 million is okay, we will sign the contract. If not, I will look for other companies."

After Xu Fuhai finished speaking, he quietly waited for the seller's reply. Hearing Xu Fuhai's words, the seller's face flashed with a trace of entanglement, and after a while he said: "You just said that you can pay the full amount?"

"Yes, I will pay it immediately after signing the contract."

Xu Fuhai said with a smile. "Well... okay, 35 million is 35 million, and I'll give you the parking space for free!"

The seller gritted his teeth and said, "Deal!"

A happy smile appeared on Xu Fuhai's face.
