Chapter Eighty-Seven Buying a House

  The lunch was sumptuous, and there were only three people at the table, including He Lao. Li Yang suddenly felt a pang in his heart. He Lao had stayed in Mingyang because he missed his old companion, but now that he was alone in Mingyang, he seemed a bit lonely. His children weren't around him, and probably most of the time he ate alone.

  "Mr. He, do you know if there are any good houses for sale around here? A villa would be best, and it would be even better if it's within this neighborhood!"

  After dinner, Li Yang asked He Lao a question with a smile, he was just asking casually, He Lao didn't often go out, and might not be familiar with the surrounding situation.

  "I just said, you can just live with me, why do you have to buy a house!" He Lao chuckled and shook his head, turning around and sitting back under the big tree in the courtyard.

  "It's fine to stay with you for now, but I won't be able to stay here forever. Look at my age, it's not young anymore, and in a few years, I should get married too. Moreover, my parents have worked hard their whole lives, so I also want to buy a house to let them come over and enjoy some leisure time!"

  Li Yang smiled and spread his hands, then continued: "Besides, I'm not short of money now. With this ability, it's better to just buy a set yourself!"

  Li Yang wanted to be filial and buy a house, which no one could oppose. He Lao lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head and asked: "How much money do you have now?"

  "Money?" Li Yang was slightly stunned and hastily replied: "There's still over 10 million left!"

  Li Yang won 15 million in Qingdao, and the jade snuff bottle was sold for 60 million, but the money had been given to Li Junshan and was not with Li Yang.

  Zhang Wei sold the old pit ice species for 10 million, and later received Zhang Wei's payment of more than 45 million, accounting for 70% of the goods. Li Yang's cash income in less than a month was over 20 million, not counting the 16 million or so that he still owed to Li Junshan.

  However, Li Yang also spent a lot of money during this period. Buying a car cost over 14 million yuan, and buying jade stones and other things cost another 5-6 million yuan. Currently, there is still 140 million yuan in cash.

  "There is indeed a villa in this district that wants to be sold. If you really want it, I can ask for you, but the price will definitely not be low!"

  He Lao looked at Li Yang and slowly said, Li Yang was slightly stunned for a moment, then revealed his excitement: "It's worth the extra cost, having a house in this neighborhood is the best!"

  The house in this neighborhood is what Li Yang really wants, and Zhang Ying even told him that the houses here are so expensive that they can't be bought with money. What Li Yang said earlier was just casual talk, but it turns out that there's actually a possibility of buying a house in this neighborhood.

  "Okay, for now, the normal house price in this neighborhood is around 10 million, you need to prepare at least 10 million!"

  Li Yang was drinking water, and He Lao's words almost choked him. Mingyang is a third-tier city, where you can buy a decent villa for one or two million yuan, and even the most expensive ones would be three or four million at most. But here, the houses are actually worth ten million, which is truly not ordinary expensive.

  "Haha, is it too expensive? Let me tell you, the houses here are absolutely worth the money. There aren't many houses that can be bought at this price, and with this 10 million, you definitely won't lose out!"

  He Lao was amused by Li Yang's appearance, and He Lao didn't expect that Li Yang really had over 10 million in assets. Since Li Yang has the ability to buy a house here, He Lao is not going to let Li Yang go, and will make sure that Li Yang's future under his care will be even better.

  "Yes, I believe it's a million, true, really expensive!"

  Li Yang let out a wry smile, and for an instant, he really did feel some regret - 10 million yuan was a lot of money, and most of his assets had been spent. But thinking about it again, the environment in this neighborhood was so good, and he still had several hundred million worth of jade that hadn't been sold yet, so gritting his teeth, it wasn't like he couldn't accept it.

  "Li Yang, the houses here are worth at least 10 million, very valuable. I remember last time Shen Hao and others said that they would be willing to spend even 20 million to buy a house here!"

  Wu Xiaoli suddenly said that Li Yang buying a house here was something she very much approved of. Many members of Wu Xiaoli's family were in politics, so he understood the status and importance of this neighborhood in Mingyang.

  "Alright, I'll buy it, so please trouble Old He for me!"

  Li Yang let out a bitter laugh and sighed, still looking a bit painful. But after he truly understood the value of housing prices here, Li Yang's mouth was twisted into a smile.

  "Don't look so wronged, Xiaoli is right, if you can buy it then you're making a profit. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have bothered to ask, others who want to buy also can't get it!"

  He Lao laughed and scolded Li Yang, who immediately smiled and said that since he had decided to buy the house, he wouldn't think about it too much. At the same time, Li Yang's heart was slightly excited, as he would finally have his own house, a one-hundred-million-yuan house, and he was full of expectations for his future little nest.

  In the afternoon, Li Yang and Wu Xiao Li did not leave. Li Yang continued to read books, while Wu Xiao Li accompanied He Lao to chat and talk. He Lao, who had not been with children for a long time, smiled happily today.

  The middle-aged woman in the villa went out to help Li Yang ask about the house, and He Lao was very relieved. As long as that house hadn't been sold, he would definitely be able to help Li Yang buy it. There weren't many people here who didn't give him face.

  More than two hours later, Mr. He and his family received good news that the owner of the villa agreed to sell it for 10 million yuan. The owner was also an old man who had recently moved south to live with his children and would not return, so he decided to sell the villa.

  For this, Mr He even personally called to thank them. The other side was also very pleased that they could make Mr He remember their kindness.

  After the house thing was settled, Li Yang immediately became busy, but what Li Yang was busy with was all about decorating his new home. The procedures for transferring the house were surprisingly smooth, and even without Li Yang appearing in person, the middle-aged woman from He Lao's family had everything taken care of.

  After seeing all the functions of the new house, Li Yang felt that the 10 million was truly worth it. Not to mention the special reasons here, the value of the house itself is probably worth this amount alone.

  This community has only thirty such villas, each villa covers an area of over 4,000 square meters, and the building area of the villa is over 2,000 square meters. In addition to the front yard with large trees, there is also a small garden of about one mu behind the villa, with artificial hills, ponds, peach trees and other seasonal crops, which is very beautiful.

  The villa has three floors, and also owns an underground garage of more than 800 square meters. On the first floor, in addition to the hall, there are six other rooms that are not small, whether for living or as guest rooms, they are all spacious enough.

  The second floor has a total of eight rooms, including two bathrooms. The largest room can be used as a gym, while the others can be used as study rooms or guest rooms. Even the smallest room is around 60-70 square meters, which is enough for an entire family to live in.

  The third floor has only four rooms, and the rest is a very large outdoor balcony. The balcony has an outdoor swimming pool, but there's no water in it. Once filled with water, this will be a great place to relax.

  In addition to these, the property management here is also quite good. There are special personnel in the backyard to help with cleaning and maintenance. No matter where a problem occurs at home, the property manager will appear in front of you within three minutes at most.

  In terms of safety, it is even more stringent. Without your permission, no one can enter through security. You can also set up a "do not disturb" mode, so that whoever comes to visit you, the security guard will tactfully tell the visitor that you are not at home, and they cannot enter.

  In short, from all aspects, Li Yang is very satisfied with this place, especially the backyard. Li Yang's mother likes to grow flowers, and she will definitely like it here.

  A few days later, Li Yang had the stone grinder and gambler's stone moved over by someone and temporarily placed them in the underground parking garage. There were a few other places they could be put, but Li Yang didn't want to waste any more space. Besides, such a large set of stone grinders wouldn't look good no matter where you put it.

  Then Li Yang moved all the things from his apartment over, and under Wu Xiaoli's accompaniment, purchased a large number of furniture and daily necessities. Buying these things cost Li Yang nearly 100,000 yuan. Fortunately, the house had been renovated before, and many pieces of furniture were left behind, otherwise Li Yang's expenses would have been even more.

  Zhang Ying and Sima Lin also knew that Li Yang had bought a new house, and they were all surprisingly surprised that Li Yang could buy a house in this community. Several people pulled Li Yang to ask him to treat them to dinner. Especially Sima Lin, who did not hide his jealousy at all, he had wanted to buy a house here several times but failed, and Li Yang was so lucky to have bought it.

  Zhang Ying was shouting to move over and live with Li Yang together, after visiting Li Yang's new house, even Sima Lin thought about whether he should also move in for a few days, the environment and comfort here are much better than his small villa.

  After everything was settled, Li Yang called Li Cheng again and asked him to bring his parents to Mingyang to see his new house. Li Cheng had recovered enough and drove to Mingyang without any problem.

  Mr. and Mrs. Li Junshan and Li Cheng were amazed by Li Yang's new house, such a beautiful and noble house they had only seen on TV before, and even felt that the ones on TV were not as good as Li Yang's, things seen on screen can't be compared to what is seen with one's own eyes.

  Li Yang took the opportunity to invite his parents to stay for a while, but was opposed by Li Junshan. Li Yang has a good house and they are very happy, but there are still many things at home. Wait until things are busy and have time, come back and live for a while, not now.

  After Li Cheng and the others left, Li Yang's life gradually calmed down. Since settling here, both Zhang Ying and Zheng Kaida seemed to have changed their attitude towards Li Yang, only Sima Lin remained the same as before.

  Zhang Wei also found Li Yang twice, and he was even more surprised by Li Yang's new home. He further solidified their idea of pulling Li Yang into the Jade Stone Association. For this reason, Zhang Wei specially applied for a director identity for Li Yang. As an ordinary member, Zhang Wei could be in charge, but as a director, he had to report to the province. Although they were a civilian organization, they still had some connection with the official, otherwise they couldn't develop normally.
