Chapter 492: Not Renting, Only Selling
Shen Xia looked at Gu Chenxi and said, "Did Kong Liu call you?"
Gu Chenxi put the phone back into her bag, nodded and said, "Well, he asked me if I wanted to go out for dinner together tonight."
Shen Xia smiled and said, "Look how nervous you were just now. You were sweating."
Gu Chenxi let out a long sigh and said, "I rented a house without telling him and even lied to him. I must be very nervous!"
Like Kong Liu, Gu Chenxi has been looking for a house near the school these days. She has taken a fancy to a Western-style villa just two streets away from the school, but the owner of the villa is unwilling to rent it out. So she had to ask the owners of several other villas nearby the Western-style villa complex.
As a result, after asking for an entire afternoon, no one was willing to rent the house when they heard that it was for rent.
Shen Xia came with Gu Chenxi and can also help her with advice.
The two asked four times in the afternoon and were a little tired from walking, so they were now sitting in the car.
Gu Chenxi said to Shen Xia: "No one wants to rent, what should I do, Xiaoxia!"
Shen Xia thought for a while and said, "If it really doesn't work, how about we lower our requirements and not rent a single-family house, but a large flat?"
Gu Chenxi pursed her lips and said, "But... I really like that Western-style building. Don't you think it's beautiful? And it has a big yard in front and back, where you can walk the dog!"
Shen Xia shrugged and said, "But the landlord doesn't want to rent it. What else can I do? I can't force him to rent it to you!"
In fact, it is no wonder that the homeowners are unwilling to rent out. This kind of antique house is not suitable for renting out.
If you rent the house to tenants and they break doors or windows, you won't be able to repair them because the company that manufactured them may have gone bankrupt in the last century, and similar products are no longer available on the market.
If you really rent it, it will be very troublesome to move back the house when the contract expires.
After thinking for a long time, Gu Chenxi said, "Why don't I buy one!"
"Are you crazy?" Shen Xia looked at Gu Chenxi as if he were a monster and said, "This is the city center, every inch of land is worth a lot of money, and that is an antique house, it has historical value, how much does it cost to buy a house like this? At least tens of millions, right? Your family will definitely not agree to let you buy it!"
"Oh..." Gu Chenxi sighed and said, "What should I do?"
"..."
After Shen Xia pondered for a few seconds, her eyes suddenly lit up and she said, "Although you can't afford it, I know someone who thinks he can afford it!"
"Who? Gong Yoo?"
"Yes." Shen Xia nodded and said, "Why don't you just tell him the plan? Young Master Kong is very wealthy and can contract the villa complex in a few minutes. By then, it will be no problem for the two of you to move into a small western-style building every day!"
"No, absolutely not!" Gu Chenxi waved his hands and said, "I came up with this plan just to give him a surprise!"
"Then I can't think of any other solution." Shen Xia spread her hands helplessly and said, "There is really no other way. I can only suggest that you rent a large flat."
"Oh, forget it." Gu Chenxi waved his hand and said, "Let's go back to the dormitory first."
The pink Porsche slowly drove away from the Western villa complex. The security guard sitting at the door looked at the taillights of the car and muttered to himself, "Why do two groups of people want to rent this antique house today? Is there some treasure hidden underground?"
As soon as Porsche left, Gong Yoo, who had just finished dinner, came here with Liu Shiyu.
After getting off the taxi, Kong Liu brought his sister to the security room first.
The security guard who had been waiting for him here during the day, saw Gong Yoo, the "God of Wealth", appear, and he immediately greeted him with a smile.
Gong Liu smiled and said to him, "Good evening, uncle."
"Hey, good evening, boss." The security guard said with a look of apology and regret on his face, "After you left this afternoon, another group of people came to ask about renting a house, so I also found out for you that the owners of this group of western-style villas are not willing to rent..."
Liu Shiyu loudly repeated the security guard's words: "You don't want to rent it out?"
"Yeah." The security guard nodded.
Gong Liu frowned when he heard this.
The security guard seemed to have remembered something and suddenly said, "However, there is a family that is selling a house. The owner of that family lost money in business and plans to sell the house to pay off the debt."
As soon as this was said, Kong Liu immediately asked: "Do you have the contact information of that boss?"
"Ah!" Seeing that Gong Yoo really wanted to buy a house, the security guard advised, "Young man, this old house is not cheap. You basically can't sell it once you buy it, and there is no possibility of appreciation. If you have this money, you might as well cross the street and buy a building in the next community. You can rent it out even if you don't live in it. You can make hundreds of thousands of dollars a month."
The security guard was telling the truth. From the perspective of making money, these Western villas are indeed not as good at preserving their value as the villas in the community next door. If you buy them and don't live in them, there won't be much room for appreciation, and they are not easy to sell.
However, these things are nothing to Kong Liu. He didn't buy the villa to make money from it anyway.
Before Kong Liu could speak, Liu Shiyu smiled and said, "It's okay, he doesn't need this little money."
"?!"
The security guard's eyes widened when he heard Liu Shiyu's words. He thought to himself, "Could it be that this young man is really a hidden tycoon?"
After all, there are a lot of rich people in a place like Zhonghai. The uncles doing morning exercises in the park may have a net worth of tens of millions. Kong Liu can easily pay a bribe of several hundred yuan, so the security guard naturally does not dare to underestimate him.
Gong Liu glared at Liu Shiyu, signaling her to stop talking nonsense, and then said to the security guard: "Uncle, can you introduce me to the owner who wants to sell the villa? I really like the house here..."
Gong Yoo said as he took out his wallet again.
"Oh, no, no, no, this is so inappropriate, you boy..."
This time, the uncle just pushed him twice gently and watched Kong Yoo put the money into his pocket. He didn't react as much as he did in the afternoon - after all, someone who wants to buy a single-family villa worth tens of millions would naturally not be short of such a small amount of money.
The uncle took the money and his smile naturally became brighter. He said, "How about this, let's leave our contact information first. When I get in touch with the seller, I'll tell you."
"Row."
Gong Yoo exchanged contact information with the uncle, and then took Liu Shiyu to visit the villa area - with the security uncle leading the way, there were no obstacles along the way and the tour was completed very smoothly.
After walking around, Gong Yoo asked Liu Shiyu, "How was it? What do you think of the place your brother liked?"
"Except that the house is a little old, everything else is good." Liu Shiyu praised this place highly. "Besides, I think my sister-in-law will also like this Western-style building."
Gong Yoo asked back, “Why do you say that?”
"Because every girl has a princess dream in her heart." Liu Shiyu looked at a villa and said, "Which girl who has read fairy tales has not dreamed of being picked up by a prince on a white horse to live in a castle when she was a child?"
Gong Liu pursed his lips and smiled slightly. He said, "Just based on what you said, I will definitely buy this villa."
"Awesome, my brother!"
