Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Nouveau Riche (2nd Update)
Xie Cheng is actually only thirty-eight this year, but because he’s lost all the hair on his head, his complexion is rather yellow, and he’s got quite a few wrinkles, he wouldn’t look out of place for forty-eight.
In recent years, it’s like he’s had an incredible stroke of luck; his previously unknown business suddenly took off mysteriously.
Now, his entire assets have exceeded a hundred million, making him part of the upper echelons in Chuzhou City.
However, because he has no foundation, coupled with a lack of personal refinement, even people with slightly fewer assets look down on him.
They see him as a nouveau riche, a flash in the pan.
In fact, Xie Cheng is quite worried internally, afraid that one day his luck will run out, and he’ll have nothing left. Plus, he doesn’t understand anything about other investments or financial management.
But last time, he heard from his impressive nephew that as long as you have money now, the safest investment is real estate, and its appreciation is faster than any other investment.
So he’s been visiting various properties, and he’s already bought four houses so far.
Today he came to the area near Southern City University City, which is considered a prime location and will only appreciate, never lose value.
He just heard that the young lady selling houses said a feng shui master once claimed that this villa has the best feng shui among all the villas.
For him, as someone who is quite fascinated by feng shui, he was instantly tempted.
Of course, he’s not dumb. He can’t tell if the young lady is telling the truth or not.
The most crucial point is, the extremely sophisticated and cold lady in front wants to buy it, and she’s clearly not an ordinary person.
Would something that someone like her wants to buy be bad?
In his previous business experiences, Xie Cheng always had these kinds of connections; otherwise, if he didn’t have any tricks up his sleeve, even if he made money, he wouldn’t be able to keep it.
As for Lin Xi, she was simply pretty, so he dismissed her directly.
"How much is it?" Xie Cheng asked. He wasn’t alone; he had a short-skirted girl with heavy makeup nestled in his arms.
He was very satisfied with this lifestyle, with loads of money in his bank card and young girls at his disposal to play around with.
"This... ??" the young lady hesitated.
She’s seen many people like Xie Cheng, most of whom would settle on a deal with just a few words, and for the sake of face, they would buy the property outright.
In front of her, Bai Bing and Lin Xi were quite uncertain, and she wasn’t sure if they were serious or just talking.
Because in her eyes, Bai Bing seemed like the rational type.
Could she really afford that much?
Even if every aspect of her appeared extraordinary, the villa costs more than ten million yuan!
This price is also the main reason the property hasn’t sold for so long since it opened.
"Thirteen million!" the young lady replied.
"Is there a discount?" Xie Cheng wasn’t dumb either; his money didn’t come for free.
"There is a discount. Our company can offer you a 30% reduction on renovations," the young lady said, looking a bit uneasy.
The short-skirt girl nestled in Xie Cheng’s arms looked at him with an expression of admiration as if her eyes were about to light up, and she softly chanted,
"Brother Cheng is amazing, amazing..."
Xie Cheng thoroughly enjoyed this admiration and told the young lady, "Where do I go to pay?"
"Wait a moment, let me first ask this customer." The young lady then turned to Bai Bing, "Miss, do you still want to buy this one?"
After all, Bai Bing and Lin Xi came first and also inquired about this one first.
