Tao Yaoyang was not angry about Chen Feng's counteroffer of 20 million. Instead, he smiled and looked at the two women standing next to Chen Feng, changed the subject and asked: "I wonder what the two beauties next to Mr. Chen are called? Can you introduce me to them? ."
Chen Feng felt slightly unhappy when he heard this, but he still pretended to be generous and pointed at the two women and introduced: "Sun Xiaorui, my girlfriend, Wu Mengting, my god sister."
"It's a pleasure to meet you. To be honest, I am amazed by the two of them. Mr. Chen is really very lucky."
Tao Yaoyang looked at Chen Feng with a smile, with an inexplicable expression on his face.
Chen Feng frowned slightly, then turned back to the topic and asked: "Mr. Tao, what do you think of the price I quoted?"
Tao Yaoyang smiled slightly, looked at Wu Mengting and asked, "How much does Miss Wu think my villa is worth?"
Wu Mengting frowned slightly, but still replied: "I think 20 million is about the same. After all, your house is considered a second-hand house. It was built several years ago. As for the decoration, furniture and electrical appliances you mentioned as gifts, they are not really valuable. .The furniture and electrical appliances are all old models, and the decoration was made several years ago. The furniture seems to be somewhat valuable, but it only costs two to three hundred thousand at most. We don’t need it.”
Hearing this, Tao Yaoyang laughed and said: "Miss Wu is very good at talking. Mr. Chen, your god-sister has done a good job. I want to get one. I really don't know where you found it. You are so lucky."
At first glance, his words sounded like he was praising Wu Mengting, and at the same time he was envious of Chen Feng's luck. But Chen Feng always felt a bit harsh when he heard it, thinking that he might be coveting Wu Mengting's beauty.
So, Chen Feng returned to the topic again and asked: "Then do you think 20 million is enough?"
Tao Yaoyang still did not directly answer Chen Feng's words. He still looked at Wu Mengting and asked with a smile: "Miss Wu, if your brother buys this place, will you live here?"
Wu Mengting asked unhappily: "Why are you asking this? This should have nothing to do with buying your house, right?"
Tao Yaoyang smiled and nodded: "It doesn't matter much, I'm just purely curious. If you don't want to answer, forget it."
After Wu Mengting glanced at him, she suddenly said calmly: "I live with my brother now. After buying this place, if he moves here, I will definitely move here with him."
Tao Yaoyang narrowed his eyes slightly, turned to Chen Feng and said pointedly: "It seems that Mr. Chen and your god-sister have a very good relationship."
Chen Feng chuckled and said, "Yes. She and I are both from Lu City, and we have a very good relationship."
Tao Yaoyang did not look at Wu Mengting again this time, and took the initiative to return to the topic and said: "Twenty million is too little. If you really want to buy it, 24 million, if not, I will ask someone else. You should also know that my villa Don’t worry about selling.”
It's true. The location of his villa is so good and it covers a large area. He really doesn't have to worry about selling it.
Chen Feng raised his eyes and looked around. He really liked the balcony here, as well as the swimming pool and back garden.
"Twenty-two million, I can pay you the full amount in one lump sum. If that doesn't work, then I have no choice but to give up. After all, although your house is good, Xiuzhou is such a big place. As long as you have money, a good house is still easy to buy.
"
When Tao Yaoyang heard Chen Feng's words, he finally began to recognize his financial resources. This guy had previously bought two properties from Cai Zhixin, worth nearly 20 million, and now he plans to buy his house for 22 million, which is nearly 4,000.
Thousands of dollars in cash.
Being able to spend so much money to buy a house means that Chen Feng himself has at least hundreds of millions in liquidity.
"Okay! Since Mr. Chen is so forthcoming, I won't bargain with you any more, just 22 million. Let's just make friends."
Tao Yaoyang didn't care about spending money, so he simply set the price.
Chen Feng was a little happy. In his mind, this villa was definitely worth the 22 million yuan. Apart from anything else, the area was twice that of the villa they lived in now, not to mention it had an independent swimming pool and a back garden.
The decoration, furniture and electrical appliances inside are actually not out of date. Although they were made a few years ago, they still look high-end and classy now.
"Mr. Tao is so happy. Let's call the lawyer to sign the agreement now, and then go through the formalities."
"OK."
The two parties quickly contacted their respective lawyers. Chen Feng called Lu Guancheng, who was recommended by Xiuzhou Bank last time. When the bald middle-aged man heard that Chen Feng actually asked him to draw up a real estate transaction contract, and it was still in Hongshu Bay, he became even more worried.
After deciding that Chen Feng was a truly wealthy man, he immediately dropped the work at hand and rushed over as soon as possible.
Lu Guancheng arrived first, and the other party's lawyer arrived about ten minutes late.
Lu Guancheng brought an assistant this time, and the other party’s lawyer also had an assistant.
Real estate transaction contracts are all ready-made. First, the assistants of both parties draft one, and then make some modifications and unifications according to the requirements of both employers.
In fact, the main purpose of calling them here is to be a witness and to control risks, especially for Chen Feng, the buyer.
After the contract is correct, go to the bank to transfer the money and go to the housing authority to complete the transfer procedures.
During this process, Tao Yaoyang was very cooperative, and when he was at the housing authority, he even asked acquaintances to come over to help with the procedures, which made the process much faster.
After completing the formalities and coming out of the Housing Authority, Tao Yaoyang said enthusiastically: "Mr. Chen and I hit it off instantly. It's been a long time since I've met such a cheerful person as Mr. Chen. In order to celebrate our meeting today and the success of this real estate transaction,
I’m treating you to a meal together.”
Although Tao Yaoyang's words were quite polite, his tone of inviting guests was unquestionable.
Cai Zhixin, who had been accompanying him throughout the whole process, also echoed: "Chen Feng, my eldest brother rarely likes people. If you can be liked by him, it means you are destined to him. Let's go, let's go and have a good meal together.
A meal.”
Chen Feng couldn't refuse when he saw this. After all, the two of them had sold three houses to him, and the business was worth tens of millions. It was nothing to have a meal with each other.
"It's okay to have dinner together, but I'd better invite you." Chen Feng said politely.
"How can I ask you to invite me? I am the landlord here. I invite you. Let's go."
After Tao Yaoyang finished speaking without any doubt, he led the people to his car.
Cai Zhixin smiled and said to Chen Feng: "Just follow our car."
Seeing this, Chen Feng no longer persisted.
Tao Yaoyang led the group to an ancient building courtyard next to the East Lake. The door was closed and it seemed impossible to get in.
However, when they arrived at the gate, the mahogany door opened from the inside. The person who opened the door was a fat middle-aged man wearing antique work clothes. He greeted Tao Yaoyang with a flattering look on his face.
A group of people filed in under his leadership.
After the three people on Chen Feng's side followed in, they heard Cai Zhixin's introduction and found out that this was a private restaurant in the scenic spot, but it was not open to the public and could only entertain internal members. And ordinary members must make reservations three days in advance.
But Tao Yaoyang is not an ordinary member and can come at any time.
The three of them walked all the way into this ancient courtyard, which was really a proper ancient building.
The group of people walked for about ten minutes before arriving at a small courtyard. They entered a very quaintly decorated private room, which was a wing room in the courtyard. Through the window, they could enjoy the ancient scenery of the courtyard, including plum blossoms, rockeries, flowing water, and carved beams and painted buildings.
of.
Chen Feng and the other two have really learned a lot along the way.
There was no menu here, so Tao Yaoyang asked Chen Feng directly if he wanted to drink. When Chen Feng said no, he didn't force him. Two maids in ancient costumes who were waiting at the side had already poured them a cup of tea.
"The Xiuzhou restaurant here is the most authentic in Xiuzhou. The chefs have been cooking Xiuzhou cuisine for several lifetimes. In addition, the ingredients are also local and authentic, such as East Lake carp, beggar's chicken, etc., although they are all sold outside.
It’s a bad street, but if you want to eat the most authentic food, you have to come here. You will know after you eat it later.”
Tao Yaoyang took the initiative to introduce him, which greatly interested Chen Feng and the others.
As a local, Cai Zhixin also introduced the place, and the three of them listened with great interest.
In this way, about ten minutes passed, and various dishes were served one after another.
Chen Feng and the three of them were not polite. After tasting it, they all couldn't help but praise it. Sure enough, the Xiuzhou cuisine here is better than the ones outside. Including Fumanlou, which Chen Feng was very satisfied with before. Comparing the two, Fumanlou
The beggar's chicken in the whole building is quite different. The East Lake carp seems to be not much different, but if you taste it carefully, the carp meat here is undoubtedly more tender.
It seems that even if you have money, you may not be able to eat the best. You have to have the connections. Like this private restaurant hidden in an ancient courtyard in a scenic spot, even if he has passed by this gate many times before, he would not have been able to eat it if Tao Yaoyang hadn't brought him here.
, he will probably never know it in his whole life, let alone eat such authentic Xiuzhou cuisine.
When the dozen or so dishes were almost finished, Tao Yaoyang asked seemingly casually: "Chen Feng, we have gotten to know each other. Brother, I have a project here that is guaranteed to make a profit. Are you interested?"
If it hadn't been for this meal, Chen Feng would have directly replied that he was not interested. But as a cannibal, Chen Feng could only follow his words and ask: "What kind of project?"
Tao Yaoyang did not give in and gave the answer directly: "Tendering for highway construction."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng quickly shook his head and said, "I'm not familiar with this, so forget it."
Tao Yaoyang frowned slightly and said: "Brother, don't think I lied to you. I thought you were pleasing to the eye, and I knew that you had strong funds, so I thought of letting Zhixin take over this project with you. Because of my identity, I decided not to do this project.
It’s not easy to get involved directly. But I am confident that I can help you win this project. Do you understand what I mean?”
Chen Feng said in his heart that I understand even if I don't understand. However, there is no such thing as pie in the sky. It's strange that I believe you.
Cai Zhixin also said at this time: "Brother, this project is indeed real. If you don't believe it, you can check it on your official website and relevant departments of Lu City. The bidding information above is all public."
"This road is in our Lushi?" Chen Feng asked curiously.
Cai Zhixin nodded and said: "Yes. Just over there in Feiyun City, the rural road reconstruction project involves several towns, a dozen routes, and a total length of more than 30 kilometers. The total project cost should be 70 to 80 million.
.If we take it over, we should still be able to make a profit of 20 to 30 million. The reason why I sold that office building to you this time is to raise funds to take over this project. But you also know that I have a gap in funds."
"Can't we get a bank loan?" Chen Feng asked pretending to be curious.
Cai Zhixin said with some frustration: "I used to like stock trading, but I kept speculating for several years and lost tens of millions. In the end, even my wife divorced me. At that time, I refused to admit defeat.
I borrowed some money from various banks to try to recoup my losses, but as you can see, I now have to sell my house to raise funds for this project."
Chen Feng was speechless, but it didn't look like Cai Zhixin was lying. After all, it was true that he had sold two of his houses at low prices.
It seems that stock trading is really harmful! Chen Hanliang was like this before, but now Cai Zhixin looks even worse.
Chen Feng glanced at Cai Zhixin with some sympathy, and then at Tao Yaoyang.
"Then why did you come to me? I don't know you very well. You suddenly gave me such a guaranteed profit-free project. I was really frightened by you all of a sudden."
Chen Feng expressed his concerns directly.
After Tao Yaoyang and Cai Zhixin looked at each other, Cai Zhixin said: "The main thing is that you have sufficient funds. If I want to contract this project, I must have sufficient funds in advance. And you happen to be from Lushi, and you have passed by
After our contact, we all feel that you are more reliable."
Although Chen Feng is not very familiar with highway construction projects, he is not completely new either. He said with a smile: "I don't think you need to contract this project yourself. You can subcontract it. Isn't it more worry-free?"
Cai Zhixin explained patiently: "Subcontracting was very common and convenient in the past, but now it is not so easy. Supervision is very strict. Besides, how much money can you make by subcontracting? I happen to have a construction company in my name.
If the engineering company contracts by itself, it can earn at least 20 to 30 million, and if we split it half and half with you, it can earn at least more than 10 million. Don't worry, as long as you invest in it, you can send someone to supervise it, and we will split the profits half and half. It's definitely not the case.
It will make you suffer."
Chen Feng would not take the bait so easily. The main reason was that Chen Feng felt that instead of working hard to do this project with him, it would be better to make money by speculating in stocks easily.
The ratio of input and output between the two is really incomparable. A fool will choose the easiest and most profitable project. For Chen Feng, this project that is sure to make money without losing money really doesn't look down on him.
"Sorry, I'm really not interested in this project."
Cai Zhixin's face couldn't help but froze when he heard this.
Tao Yaoyang then said: "It seems that you still don't trust us. To be honest, we really don't mean to deceive you, and we sincerely want to make friends with you. Of course, we are not familiar with each other yet, etc.
You will know after you get familiar with it."
Cai Zhixin said angrily: "Chen Feng, you really don't understand good people. We saw that you are a good person, so we brought you to make a fortune together. But you still don't appreciate it."
Chen Feng said calmly: "If you are really short of money, you don't necessarily have to recruit me to join you. I can definitely lend you money. What is your current funding gap?"
Tsai Chi-xin immediately said: "There is still a shortage of almost 40 million."
Chen Feng looked at Tao Yaoyang and said, "Brother Tao, since Zhixin is so short of money, let's help him. Each of us will give him half of the 40 million, and each of us will lend him 20 million. What do you think?"
