My Life with Narration

Chapter 904: Chapter 894: Wang Xing Buys a House

As the saying goes, where there are ambitious people, there’s great productivity; I never thought Wang Xing actually harbors aspirations of becoming Chancellor.

When he first met Shen Yi, he suspected himself of such ambition, but fortunately, his taste was normal; Shen Yi is just mature, not an older woman.

She’s unmarried, doesn’t have a husband, which allowed him to escape the Chancellor’s spiritual influence.

But I must say, this guy is really bold, secretly photographing his mother-in-law on the day of engagement—definitely not a good egg.

"I never realized Brother Wen was so restless before; how many times has he been here in just two days!"

In the living room, Shen Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

As June passed, two movies were delisted, and it was time to share the box office. Especially ’This Killer Is Not Very Calm’ had a great box office return, and investors were rolling in money; who wouldn’t care about money matters?

"Old Brother Wen, it’s his first time after all, it’s new and fresh, and besides it’s not small money; until the money is in hand, he can’t rest assured. A human reaction," Su Qing laughed.

To this, Shen Yi playfully said, "That’s true; when you made money from your first film investment, I didn’t see you this anxious. If I didn’t see you working hard to make money last year, I’d think you didn’t care about it!"

"How could that be? I’m not named Ma, of course, I care about money. But that money won’t disappear; sooner or later, it’s all mine, so it doesn’t matter," Su Qing laughed.

For this, Shen Yi helplessly shook her head, "By the way, if you have no other investment projects recently, why not donate some money?"

"Donate money? Why?"

"Dummy, donate money for charity, you can get tax deductions. For the past six months, the funds on your company’s books have been considerable. Don’t be stingy about the taxes you owe. Even though we can’t evade taxes, we can lawfully avoid them. Besides donating, you can also acquire some company cars or real estate, or set up subsidiary companies. There are many methods; I can’t tell you all at once.

If you have ideas, you can tell me. If not, I can contact the professionals from the company to help you out. Rest assured, they are very professional!" Shen Yi laughed.

Having been in the business for years, Shen Yi naturally knows more than him about such matters.

"Who should I donate to?"

"Charitable foundations?"

"Then forget it; I don’t trust those institutions. How about I donate directly to a primary school?" Su Qing asked.

Donate to charitable institutions? Forget it; scandals have been exposed online. Tens of thousands donated, and only a few dozen reach the people in need.

Not to mention how much is wasted in the middle process alone. After donating, aside from gaining a good reputation, the needy hardly get real help. Where does the money actually go? How many parasites are being fed?

"Donate to a primary school? That should be possible, but I’ll have to ask about the procedures. Why? Do you have any ideas?" Shen Yi asked.

Upon hearing this, Su Qing nodded and said, "Indeed, do you remember San’er?"

"Yes, your high school classmate, isn’t he already..." Shen Yi didn’t finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear.

"He did pass away, hasn’t been too long. But he had a girlfriend, we met last year at San’er’s grave. In a few days, it’ll be San’er’s death anniversary again; she’ll be back. She majored in education and is currently teaching in remote areas. I thought I could donate to schools through her channel. Firstly, it counts as my good deed; secondly, I can lend a hand to San’er’s girlfriend. And thirdly, maybe I can get tax relief—why not?

I don’t have any other requirements; I only ask that my money safely reaches those who need help."

This is Su Qing’s donation goal, but in China, the more you earn, the higher the taxes—it’s certain. Before, his money was personal, no problem. But since investing in films, it’s company-based, naturally requiring a certain amount of tax submission.

This tax rate isn’t low, and he previously considered this. Now with Shen Yi bringing it up, it’s perfect to let her handle it.

"Alright, I’ll ask around for you and have the headquarters people handle it for you!"

"Alright, thanks sister!"

"No need to be polite; in a few months, your money will be mine, helping you is helping myself. By the way, what are you up to now?" Shen Yi looked at Su Qing, who was changing clothes, and asked.

"Going to check on old A. He’s buying a house today. I’ll drop by to see and also ask when his wedding is, and if I can help out!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi couldn’t help but exclaim, "Hasn’t it been long, and he’s already engaged?"

"What did you think? The families met yesterday, and it seems the deal is done; no choice, the girl’s belly waits for no one," Su Qing laughed while changing.

From when Wang Xing found out Lin Miaomiao was pregnant to their engagement, it hasn’t even been ten days.

Fortune favors the speedy; quick decisions lead to swift actions. Now both families have met, they’ve discussed dowries and engagement. Today, Wang Xing is ready to pay for the house. This pace is much faster than mine, like being chased by wolves.

"Regardless, you don’t have many friends; if you can help, try to help out. No matter how rich one is, they must have a few friends!" Shen Yi laughed.

As for Wang Xing and even Ding Qiang, she knows them well. Fortunately, they know boundaries—they aren’t the kind to leech off a friend who’s become successful. Shen Yi doesn’t mind Su Qing occasionally helping his friends.

"Got it, I’m off now!"

"Goodbye~~ come back soon!"

Su Qing nodded, then went out, driving straight to West City. The house prices here are somewhat cheaper, Wang Xing is buying a newly built apartment from a year ago, priced around 8000, which isn’t expensive in Jiang City.

"Sir, this apartment is quite good; an elevator building, 105 square meters, small three bedrooms, not much shared space. Even as a marital home, it’ll be sufficient for children in the future.

meters from the community entrance is a bus stop, making transportation convenient. Here, there are also kindergartens and primary schools, and we have parking spaces. But even if you don’t buy, you can park at the entrance."

In a community named Hengtai, Su Qing and Wang Xing were visiting an unfinished apartment, and a male property agent in a white shirt was introducing the apartment’s advantages.

Watching them walk around the apartment, to be honest, for Su Qing who is used to living in big houses, this one felt small.

But at this moment, he couldn’t use his own criteria to choose.

"Qingzi, what do you think?" Wang Xing, sweating all over his forehead, asked.

"Not bad. The house prices in Jiang City are laid out here, the places you can choose are limited. Of course, if you’re willing, I can lend you money to buy at the city center location..."

Before he could finish, Wang Xing quickly raised his hand to interrupt, "Stop, hold it, I know you can lend me money, but I’m afraid I can’t repay it. Borrowing a little is alright, with the business I have with Da Qiang, I’m confident I can repay it quickly but borrowing too much is not feasible."

"When’s your wedding date?" Su Qing asked helplessly.

"August 5th, dowry is ten thousand, three pieces of gold, if the house is under a loan it’ll be in both names; if not, it’s under mine. My mom is looking for hotels these days!"

Upon hearing this, Su Qing laughed, "Wow, your whole family is now mobilized!"
