Chapter 1188: Chapter 551: God Lin Buys a House, Starting with a Villa!_5

Fang Qiong took a sip of tea: "Don’t be in a rush, listen to me first. How about this, all these pieces of furniture are high-quality mahogany and can easily fetch three to four million."

"My whole family is immigrating, and we can’t take these with us, and selling them is a hassle, so I’ll leave them all to you. You can either sell them or use them, either way, you won’t lose out."

"I’m definitely not going to strip the house down and redecorate, but I do want to change the furniture!"

Lin Baici really doesn’t have time to deal with this stuff.

Fang Qiong continued to persuade, trying to convince Lin Baici.

Lin Baici did not like this approach, and he also had to wait for the results from Nangong Shu and Xia Hongmian.

Ten minutes passed, and the phone rang on time.

It was Xia Hongmian.

As soon as the call connected, Xia Hongmian’s voice came through without any pleasantries: "That villa might become a foreclosed property, its owner is currently in trouble in Europe, no matter how cheap, don’t buy it!"

"Thank you for your concerns, Minister!"

Lin Baici expressed his gratitude.

"You are my ace!"

There was the sound of coffee being sipped from the phone: "Call me if you need anything, even at 12 at night, don’t worry about disturbing me!"

"Okay!"

After hanging up, Lin Baici stood up: "Auntie, I’m sorry, I am not buying!"

"Ah?"

Fang Qiong’s face panicked a bit: "Let’s talk more, these kind of deals can’t be settled in just a few words, can we all make some compromises?"

"No more talking!"

Lin Baici refused.

Fang Qiong quickly stood up, trying to stop Lin Baici.

Lin Baici’s phone rang again.

"The owner of that villa, currently with his children overseas, has gotten into quite a bit of trouble, only the mistress is hiding in the country. But if you are interested, I can find a way to secure the house for you without any risks."

Nangong Shu had also checked and was much more ruthless than Xia Hongmian.

No morals, no laws.

"Thank you, Aunt Shu!"

Lin Baici learned Nangong Shu’s way of doing things through this detail.

"Aunt Shu is waiting for your thank-you gift!"

Nangong Shu teased Lin Baici a few times and then hung up.

"I’ll take my leave!"

Lin Baici said goodbye to Ji Xinyan and Feng Ting and left.

"Wait, I can make one more concession!"

Fang Qiong hurried to liquidate this villa: "Then sixty million!"

"Auntie, don’t make me spell it out too clearly, there is a problem with this house!"

Lin Baici did not want to entangle further.

"What... what nonsense are you talking about?"

Fang Qiong’s eyes flickered, still talking tough: "I’ve lived in this villa for over thirty years, what problem could it possibly have?"

"You know what it is!"

Lin Baici chuckled, sidestepped Fang Qiong, and walked out.

Fang Qiong was confident in her ability to read people; she thought the young man really wanted to buy, so the problem must be related to those two phone calls he received.

Geez!

Whose child is this?

Was able to dig up her background in just a few minutes?

Terrifying!

The three of them got into a Mercedes and left Jinxi Xiangshui Shore.

Feng Ting was still confused, she wondered if Lin Baici actually couldn’t afford it and was just teasing the wealthy woman.

But Lin Baici probably wasn’t that low-quality of a person, right?

"Senior Monitor, I didn’t expect you to have such connections in Haijing!"

Ji Xinyan was surprised.

Compared to Feng Ting, Ji Xinyan had seen more of such things and knew Lin Baici must have consulted someone.

"It’s because my friends are giving me face!"

It was near Haijing Polytechnic, a pity they couldn’t buy it.

"Then if you accidentally get me pregnant, you have to find the best hospital, the best doctor to get an abortion for me!"

Ji Xinyan started being cheeky again: "I’m afraid of pain!"

Feng Ting wanted to say, I’m not afraid of pain, I could go to a small clinic for an abortion without even asking for maintenance.

They then viewed three more villas without notifying the owners, Lin Baici gave up on all them.

One was mixed with small high-rise buildings, crowded and chaotic, another was undergoing demolition nearby, with the sound of machinery rumbling.

Looking at this, the reconstruction after demolition would at least take three years, Lin Baici couldn’t stand that!

The third villa was near an urban village and the largest vegetable market, making commuting really inconvenient, stuck in traffic for at least half an hour to and from work each day.

"Let’s not look further, let’s go eat!"

Lin Baici was somewhat discouraged, realizing that buying a house wasn’t just about having money.

"Realizing the hassle now?"

Ji Xinyan saw Lin Baici’s frustration and comforted him: "You’re still alright, you have money, many people buying houses stake their family’s entire savings, it’s the biggest event of their lives. Once they fall into a trap, like buying into unfinished properties, it’s at least a decade of happiness gone, so have a little patience!"

"Is there a famous restaurant nearby? Let’s have a big meal!"

Lin Baici opened the Meituan app.

"The Guangde Building seems nearby, I heard from a friend that their Cantonese cuisine is not bad."

"Then let’s go there!"

Feng Ting watched Ji Xinyan navigating, she whispered: "Guangde Building is very expensive, about six or seven hundred per person."

She had never eaten there, but had heard of it.

"Splurge, let the Monitor treat us!"

Ji Xinyan chuckled.

"That’s not what I meant."

Feng Ting explained, then fell silent, she certainly didn’t have the funds to treat.

But judging by Lin Baici’s character, he seemed very generous. Of course, eating at such an expensive place, Feng Ting felt a bit embarrassed, so when the car parked outside Guangde Building, Feng Ting took the initiative.

"Shall we meet up at two o’clock?"

"Why? Aren’t we eating together?"

Lin Baici roughly understood Feng Ting’s mindset.

"No, no, I’ll just eat something small in a roadside place!"

Feng Ting waved her hands.

"Let’s go!"

Lin Baici smiled: "A meal, I can afford it!"
