In order to live in seclusion, I tricked my roommate into falling in love.

Chapter 234: Capitalists are good at hanging carrots

Zhou Linpeng and Wang Xiaotong must be brought along.

These two were actually following in the car behind, and they witnessed how Tingbaobao's family was dealt with in the morning.

The first time Zi Xiaowei and Dai Anni came to see the Automobile Design Center, they noticed that the villa area across the street was quite quiet.

Unlike the dozen or so townhouses across the street from the gate of the United Nations University, which were probably built a long time ago to provide supporting facilities for senior talents and are rather old and overgrown with weeds after more than ten years.

This place is definitely one of those beautiful ones that was just renovated two or three years ago, designed and carefully constructed by famous designers.

And a large area.

Last night at the hot pot restaurant, the general manager of the business park introduced our neighbors.

He's also a real estate planning expert: "Approvals for villa developments have essentially ceased in China. Even in previous years, many projects were approved for large plots of land, which were then used to build a large number of high-rise buildings with very high floor area ratios. This was done to squeeze out space for villa developments and meet the floor area ratio restrictions."

But it’s different here. The northern suburbs have always been positioned as a scenic area and the core of the education industry.

On the contrary, high-rise buildings above 30 stories are basically not approved to avoid affecting the scenery.

Therefore, the nearby blocks are mostly small high-rise villas with seven, eight or ten floors, and it was easier to obtain land for villas in the early days.

The low floor area ratio of a single-family villa is still too luxurious, but the townhouses appear dense when placed in a long row.

So this real estate developer with a strong background only does six households and one courtyard.

Every six families form a circle. Although the courtyard in the middle also separates six families, it is obviously more spacious and elegant.

Then six houses are counted as one building, and there are a total of sixty or seventy buildings covering a huge area.

In fact, there are only about 400 families in total.

It’s not as spacious as the Dai family’s old villa next to the golf course, but it can also simulate the kind of grand class difference.

It is a deformed townhouse, more like a courtyard house where each house does not interfere with the other.

However, no matter how high the status or how powerful the developer is, it cannot withstand the sudden outbreak of the epidemic just at the opening stage, causing the entire real estate market to enter a freezing period.

Of course, the more important issue is user positioning. Like the business park, it is trapped in this area that seems to have beautiful scenery but is neither a tourist hotspot nor can it support academic and scientific research status.

Those who can afford a townhouse must at least be middle class or above with a good income, and it is still a bit far from the city center if it is dozens of kilometers away.

People who live in retirement would not choose such a remote area where they have to drive even to buy groceries. Even Diane would rather live next to the food street outside the school gate. The environment is not as good, but it is convenient.

The hot spring villa in the back mountain was more famous, but it was left unfinished and turned into a wasteland.

At least more than half of the buildings here are small high-rise villas. We have only been able to complete the fifth phase and all the buildings have been completed.

The villa area is about half occupied.

Ding Lijuan has good vision. The general manager said yesterday that she would sort out the contact information of second-hand real estate agents who have been living in the house for one or two years in the evening.

I confirmed it in the morning and sent it to Zi Xiaowei's mobile phone.

The real estate agent waiting at the gate of the community was very enthusiastic in welcoming the five or six mixed luxury cars that came in.

Gao Tingting is still young, and she stands out among beautiful girls in terms of being well-behaved and sensible.

There is still a big gap between them and Zi Xiaowei's sophistication and maturity, and Dai Anni's broad knowledge and experience.

At least during the few kilometers in the car, she couldn't imagine that her family and relatives would be so proud.

As soon as we got off the bus, we started talking and making a lot of noise like a group of middle-aged women arriving at a tourist attraction, and holding up our phones to take pictures everywhere.

Zhou Linpeng and Wang Xiaotong both realized that this behavior was a bit embarrassing, so they quickly moved away and watched from the sidelines.

Even the two real estate agents were sharp enough to tell that the two young ladies wearing sunglasses were the real deal.

But these relatives couldn't stop Gao's father and mother from becoming the center of attention.

So both sides enthusiastically introduced and guided us, and along the way, I listened to these relatives' comments: "This place is too remote. The air is good, but it's far away from the city and in the countryside. How inconvenient."

"Now that Tingting has made some money, she should buy a large flat in the city."

"Yes, grandma is old and it's not convenient for her to go up and down the stairs, so a large flat is the most suitable."

"This must be worth several million. Wouldn't it be better to buy two more houses in the city as an investment? It's not like my current house is uninhabitable. This place is like a retreat..."

"This villa isn't very nice, why is there a domestic car parked here?"

“The decoration is not that good…”

Zi Xiaowei thinks it’s good to live in seclusion.

He also teased Dai Anni: "It's better than your villa. After the design center is built, do you want to buy one here?"

Dai Anni is already very experienced: "First look at the size of the garden. If you like it, buy one. If you want peace and quiet, come here. If you want more noise, live there. Haha, Tingting's relatives are very creative."

Gao Tingting had never expected such a low-quality scene.

She covered her face and said, "I've never encountered anything like this before. I really shouldn't have brought them here. They were making a fuss for half the night yesterday." Not only did they squeeze Gesang and her daughter into the next room, but they were also playing mahjong so loudly that even Chang Yueling was disturbed. Someone had to be sent over to talk them down before they quieted down.

Zi Xiaowei, however, was an expert at observing people: "Actually, he's probably not this noisy on ordinary days, but right now, he's really burning with anger. Seeing your family become so wealthy, he's desperately trying to show off his knowledge."

Dai Anni echoed the sentiment: "I'm reminding you, maybe they'll have some crazy ideas. Tingting, since you're so famous, I'll find businesses to advertise for you. We'll help you set up a company and make money together, hahaha."

Gao Tingting was still determined: "I know that without Awei and Big Sister, I am nothing. Oh, do I really want to buy a villa?"

The main thing is that if my family really lives here, won’t I have to go to school on foot?
What's the point of talking about youth freedom and love time?
Zi Xiaowei was being deliberate. "You haven't considered at all how your family might react after they found out about your income. Moving here is to geographically isolate yourself from the chaos, so you can slowly adapt to it. Moving back in the future won't matter, and yet you brought everything with you. I was so impressed by you yesterday trying to think it over."

Gao Tingting was distressed: "This semester, I put all my energy into filming the video. Everything else was taken care of by you and my older sister. I'm completely unused to thinking about these little details."

Diane summed it up for her: "A bunch of idiots..."

Facing Gao Tingting's surprised expression, he laughed at himself: "Haven't you seen what my relatives are like in the underwear company? If you don't handle it well, you will be my next. It's all thanks to Xiaowei that I have settled down."

Zi Xiaowei wanted to curse, why did you drag me into this for no reason!
It took a lot of effort to get the parents to muddy the waters.

As expected, Gao Tingting also said: "Ah Wei... help me..."

She also pouts and acts coquettishly.

Her skills are much deeper than Diane's.

In fact, they were all looking at them. Dad and Mom, dizzy from the surrounding noise, finally remembered that this was the financial sponsor and waited for a moment. "What do you think of this place, Xiaowei?"

Zi Xiaowei cut the Gordian knot: "It's okay, the key is the price..."

He also gave him a look. Having money to buy it is one thing, but not being a sucker is his principle.

For these second-hand houses that have already entered the market, there is no question of getting half the price in cash unless the developer cashes out.

But the epidemic has indeed hit real estate prices hard, especially this high-end premium market.

All of the apartments are over 200 square meters in size. More than a dozen unrenovated ones are priced at around 2.7 million yuan, but there is only one renovated one that I want to sell, which is actually 2.3 million yuan cheaper.

Those who can afford this kind of villa want to pursue quality of life and make themselves more comfortable, so decoration is not worth the money.

Zi Xiaowei looked at the apartment, which had only been used for two or three years, and immediately recommended: "This one is ready to live in. If you don't like it, you can change it later. Look, that one is the design center building for Anne's underwear. It's convenient for us to contact you if anything happens. We can invite relatives and friends to get together here during the Spring Festival."

Gao's relatives and friends were originally chattering, but suddenly they became silent as if their necks were blocked.

Damn, so casual, don’t you look around carefully?
Gao's parents were also surprised: "Didn't you say... to come and take a look first? Why is it so soon?"

Zi Xiaowei said calmly, "As I've said before, the hardest time to adapt was the first couple of years when Gao Tingting became so popular. Whether it's disrupting your lives or adjusting your work, just give it a try. I see there's a senior citizen's room on the first floor. It's easy for the elderly to tend to the garden and plants there. We have the best gardening team."

He became more excited when he talked about this.

Gao Tingting hesitated: "Don't think about it for a while, what if I can't adapt?"

Gao's mother also quickly made suggestions: "This decoration is a bit old-fashioned. It would be more reassuring if I could do it myself."

But he secretly touched his daughter's arm, asking how could he not be dissatisfied with the goods in front of the real estate agent.

In fact, rich people are too lazy to complain.

Dai Anni said in a domineering tone: "Then buy all the adjacent units. You can live next to them and see how you like to decorate them. In the end, just pick the one you like best and transfer the ownership."

Zi Xiaowei also choked, but then he looked at Dai Anni and saw her pointing to the automobile design center building on the other side.

React immediately.

There is a lot of plagiarism in underwear design all over the world, and Diane's design team is not led by any high-paid experts or famous designers.

But there are many high-level talents in automobile design.

Assistant Chang has said several times that it actually costs a lot of money to recruit expert groups, international teams, and domestic emerging teams.

Sometimes it’s just a matter of how you deal with a waistline, you get what you pay for, and experts have their reasons for charging high prices.

Even if the talents do not settle in Jiangzhou, there are no high-end hotels around here, so there will definitely be a demand for high-end villas.

Since you have to buy a house anyway, it’s so cool to be a landlady.

Dai Anni took off her sunglasses and even gave a teasing gesture to Gao's mother who was very excited, meaning that this kind of free decoration supervision was not enjoyable.

Capitalists always calculate labor costs in unexpected ways.

So Zi Xiaowei naturally asked the real estate agent, "How many units do you have left in this project? What's the discount for buying a whole lot?"

Since you are thinking this way, just buy more. This price is definitely a bargain.

It is too cheap to win over the hearts of the senior executives of so many teams that will grow in the future with just over two million.

At this time, he even made a clear gesture to Zhou Linpeng and Wang Xiaotong, but the two roommates were already stunned.

Can't you work hard to become executives worthy of living in a villa?
So I set these two on fire as well.
