Chapter 39: Buying a House

After thinking about his brilliant idea, he then directly message the group

<Dongwon, are you interested in changing your small house to a big one?>

<What do you mean?> Kang Dongwon asked. <Minho, are you going to give me a friendly sponsorship?>

Lee Minho then smoothly added his brilliant idea.

<No sponsorship, but there is a good investment project recently, and I want to ask if you are interested in getting on board.>

Kim Jaehwan asked. <Investment projects? What kind of investment projects can replace a small house with big one?>

<Don't bother with the details. Anyway, it only takes three days, and return can be doubled at least. If you are interested, give me an answer before midnight.>

Park Bogum wondered. <Doubling in three days? Minho, is it reliable?>

<Yeah? 5 The million is my wife's capital. If wife loses her capital, I will live in your house Minho.>

Seeing that they are worried Lee Minho finally gave a reply.

<Don't worry, I can guarantee that it is reliable.>

Seeing that Lee Minho agreed, it can be seen how confident he is in the investment.

It's just that 5 million is not a small amount after all. Kang Dongwon's parents have saved this mnoney for a long time for his future wife.

Lee Minho also knew what Kang Dongwon's concerns is, so he didn't send any more messages and waited for the three of them to reply.

Park Bogum, who usually speaks the best, gave the answer first.

<Since Minho has said so, then I will give it to you as an old man. Not much, just 10,000 dollars.>

Kim Jaehwan also sent a message.

<I don't have much either. But I still a little left over from the bonus got recently, and with remaining salary for few months, can barely make up 20,000 dollars.>

Finally Kang Dongwon also decided.

<Okay, then I'll wait for Minho to change my house a bigger one. Wait me, and transfer the money you.>

Park Bogum and Kim Jaehwan switched over directly on the phone.

But after a while, Kang Dongwon's 5 million dollars has been transferred.

Fortunately, Kang Dongwon used his father's card, otherwise the 5 million dollars would not have been able to be transferred through the mobile phone.

Seeing that these three people trusted him so much, they gave themselves all their old roots in just a minute.

Lee Minho's heart was quite moved.

Trusting is one thing, but the thing that Kang Dongwon and the others mistakenly thought that Lee Minho is a super rich second generation.

Kang Dongwon knew that Lee Minho directly gave Choi Jaywon's sports car worth several milion and an investment of 10 million.

People who live in villas worth hundreds of millions are people who can open their mouths to invest 10 million dollars, and people who can give away a sports cars worth millions at will, will they still value his 5 million dollars?

My 5 million dollars is probably nothing in his eyes. That's what Kang Dongwon's thoughts.

With the 5 million, plus the 8 million from Kang and Yoon, there are more than 13 million dollars in Lee Minho's card.

Very well, the money is enough.

Early in the next morning, after eating breakfast, Lee Minho went straight to the nearest sales center by taxi with his card.

That's right, Lee Minho is going to use the money to buy a house.

There is no requirement required to buy a house in Kyoto.

But if you want to buy a house and settle down, and let your children study in Kyoto, then there are many requirements.

Of course, none of this is a problem if you have the money.

Soon, the taxi stopped in front of the sales department. It was only 9 o'clock in the morning.

Early in the morning, the sales department was very quiet. After all, only a few people came to see the house early in the morning.

Lee Minho walked in, and immediately a saleswoman with delicate makeup, a good figure in uniform came over.

"Hello, sir, welcome. I'm Xiao Gu, the saleswoman here. What kind of houses do you want to see, sir?"

The saleswoman named Xiao Gu has a good attitude and a decent smile on her face.

She looked at Lee Minho indiscriminately.

After seeing Lee Minho's whole body, which may not add up to a hundred worth of street clothes, she remembered that Lee Minho came here by taxi just now.

Although Lee Minho didn't look very well

dressed, he is really handsome and had a very good temperament.

However, such an ethereal thing like temperament and appearance seems to be negligible under the cover of ordinary street clothes.

And it is too young. At most twenty years old, maybe still a student.

In an instant, Xiao Gu classified Lee Minho as the kind who couldn't afford a house.

After all, this is Kyoto, and any house here can cost several million dollars. Not something an average student can afford.

After all, these sales are well trained, and

they face many customers every day. As a result they have already developed a pair of

piercing eyes.

Xiao Gu thought to herself that the person in front of her might be looking for a job.

Despite thinking so, Xiao Gu's attitude is still respectful.

The door is a customer, and their sales are professionally trained. It is impossible for them to look down on customers like in those novels or on TV.

Even if you look down on the guests, you won't show it on your face. This is the most basic professionalism as a salesperson.

Especially in the capital city of Colorado like Kyoto, who knows if a randomn person might be a descendant of a second generation or a big boss.

Lee Minho didn't waste any time, and went straight to the point.

"Do you still have type B houses here?"

"Yes sir please come this way. Let me introduce you." Xiao Gu then started introducing every type B houses.

It seems that the guests in front of them came here after they knew their house.

Luckily, she thought, maybe the person in front of her really wants to buy a house!

The house sold by this sales department is a real estate named Daesan in the center of the Kyoto.

This real estate is developed and constructed by Colorado Real Estate.

Colorado Real Estate is one of the largest real estate companies in Colorado, and its real estate has always won by quality.

The houses in Daesan are divided into three types the A, B, C and D.

Type A is a small house, basically less than 90 square meters.

Type B houses are more than 90 square meters and less than 130 square meters.

Type C houses is more than 130 square meters and less than 150 square meters.

Type D is more than 150 square meters and less than 170 square meters.

All types of houses are divided into hardcover houses and rough houses.

As soon as Daesan opened, one-third of the buildings have been sold.

Unfortunately, housing prices in Kyoto are indeed not cheap.

Moreover, the buildings in this real estate are just some ordinary residential buildings, which are also aimed at ordinary people, and cannot attract the attention of the rich.

Even so, there are less than thirty of these houses left.

After Lee Minho briefly listened to Xiao Gu's introduction, he had an understanding in his heart.

In fact, Lee Minho already had a preliminary understanding of this real estate before coming here.

Daesan is in the center of the Kyoto capital, surrounded by large shopping malls, primary and secondary schools, and close to the subway line.

It can be said that the house here is a school district house but the price is not cheap, otherwise the house would have been sold out.

When the other salesmen saw that Lee Minho was being entertained, they stood aside and did not step forward.

After seeing what Lee Minho was wearing, they basically didn't pay much attention to it.

Because in their view, a young man like Lee Minho might just had come for sightseeing, and if he really had to spend money to buy a house, he probably wouldn't be able to afford it.

They basically see this kind of person every day, so they don't have anything to worry about.

Xiao Gu introduced to Lee Minho. "We still have four units of type B in Daesan, including one with refined decoration and three with rough-finished materials."

"How big are the three rough houses?" Lee Minho asked.

He had already considered it before he came. If there is a rough house, he will buy the rough house, and he can decorate it according to his own preferences.

"The remaining three sets of rough houses and are all 130 square meters with three bedrooms and one living room."

"What is the selling price?"

Lee Minho calculated the price in his mind, and he concludes that the price is a bit low.

He has 13 million now, if he buys this 130-square-meter house, it won't be

worth it.

The average price of rough houses here

is basically cheap for fine decoration, with furniture.

Even if it is a B-type hardcover house, the price is still far from 13 million.

When Lee Minho came here, he could make up his mind to wipe out all the 13 million in his card.

So Lee Minho could only look at the D-type houses.

"Do you still have the D-type house?"

"Im sorry sir, there are no available rough houses in the D-type house. There are only eight well-decorated houses left, of which two are 150 square meters, three are 160 square meters, and three are 170 square meters."

Lee Minho did a quick mental calculation again, and asked.

"If the full payment is made, is there any discount?"

Xiao Gu was taken aback but answered regardless. "If you pay in full, I can give you a 20% discount at least."

'20% off? Just enough!' Lee Minho quickly set his sights on the two 150-square-meter houses.

"I want to see the two 150-square-meter houses of type D."

"Alright, please wait a moment." Xiao Gu didn't know why Lee Minho said he wanted to see the B-type apartment before, but then wanted to go to the D-type apartment.

But since he proposed to look at the house, Xiao Gu is also obliged to accompany him to look at the house.

Xiao Gu took the key of the house, and then called the driver who was in the sales department to pick up the customers to see the house.

The three got into a black car and drove towards the house.

The sales department is not far from the apartment, only a few minutes drive away.

It's just that there was some traffic jam on the road, so it took more than ten minutes to arrive.

The location of the house is located at the Zijin Garden, one of the most best places for a house because it is surrounded by important areas in Kyoto.

Soon, the three of them came to Zijin Garden.

The driver was waiting in the parking lot, while Xiao Gu took Lee Minho upstairs to look around the house.

The two houses of type D are in the same building, which are on the 7th and 10th floors.

Like this kind of house, the higher the floor, the more expensive the price. All the high floor ones have been sold, and now only the low floor ones remain.

Although the floor is a bit low, the lighting is very good and the decoration is very modern and technological, simple and atmospheric.

The furniture and electrical appliances in the house are all available, and they are all branded goods. You can check in directly with your bags.

Originally, Lee Minho was thinking of buying a rough house to renovate by himself, but now he feels that the renovated house in Daesan is also very good.

He first looked at the 7th floor, and then looked at the 10th floor.

The layout of the two houses is similar, and the decoration is also similar.

But Lee Minho liked the set on the seventh floor more. The reason is that he is a little afraid of heights.

"Okay, that's it." Lee Minho finally made a decision.

"What? Sir, what do you mean, you're.. settled?"

Xiao Gu couldn't react, showing a surprised expression.

No wonder she was surprised, after all, the houses here are not cheap.

Normally those who come to see the houses, not only come to see it several times but needed all kinds of inquiries and picks, they have to go back and discuss it before they can make a decision.

But people like Lee Minho only watched it once, and those who made a decision directly were very few.

What's more, Lee Minho doesn't look like a rich man because of his clothes.

She didn't expect that a house worth more than 10 million dollars could be settled so easily at a glance.

Lee Minho nodded and said. "Yes, this is what I want, and I want to buy it in full, don't miss the 20% discount."

"Oh, yes sir I will go back and prepare the house purchase contract for you immediately." Xiao Gu was overjoyed.

She didn't expect that she could sell a house today. That's why she was so happy.
