Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

Charlie took out a calculator and started typing away. Then he shook his head and said, "Mr. Yan, the price you quoted is too low."

Yan Jiekuang said, "Mr. Charlie, houses are dead, but people are alive. The price I just quoted is the current price. In a few years, it will not be the same price anymore."

Charlie asked: “Mr. Yan, what did you mean by that just now?!”

Yan Jiekuang replied: "The lease period is almost up."

Charlie was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Mr. Yan, it is undeniable that you are a very powerful negotiator. Just follow your price. Deal!"

Yan Jiekuang smiled and agreed, "Charlie, your decision is absolutely correct. Prepare the contract!"

Charlie pressed the bell on his desk. Not long after, the secretary came in. Charlie said, "Ask the lawyer to come and prepare the contract."

"Okay!" the female secretary responded and left the VIP room.

About ten minutes later, the lobby manager knocked on the door and came in with a list. Charlie took the list and looked at it, with an incredible expression on his face. He looked at Yan Jiekuang and Lou Xiaoe and said, "Mr. Yan, it seems that I really underestimated you."

Yan Jiekuang smiled and said, "These are just appetizers. The main course is still to come!" Then he said to Lou Xiaoe, "Go and deposit all the money into the company account."

"Okay!" Lou Xiao'e responded and followed the lobby manager out of the VIP room.

After Lou Xiao'e left, Yan Jiekuang reached into the inner pocket of his clothes, took out a large yellow croaker, slapped it on the table, and then pushed it in front of Charlie, saying, "This is your hard work fee."

Charlie smiled at Yan Jiekuang, picked up the big yellow croaker, looked at it, put it in the inner pocket of his clothes with a smile, and said, "Mr. Yan, you are so polite."

Yan Jiekuang said: "This is just a small token of my appreciation. In addition, please recommend me a qualified property management company to help me manage these office buildings."

Charlie agreed very readily: "That's no problem. I'll help you arrange it in a moment."

After about ten minutes, Lou Xiao'e came in from outside. Yan Jiekuang asked, "Is everything done?!"

Lou Xiaoe replied: "It's done!"

Yan Jiekuang nodded slightly and was about to say something else. The female secretary knocked on the door and came in with the lawyer. The lawyer handed the drafted contract to Charlie. Charlie looked at the content of the contract and after confirming that there was no problem, he handed the contract to Yan Jiekuang.

Yan Jiekuang read the contract word by word carefully. After confirming that there was no problem with the amount written in the contract, Yan Jiekuang signed the contract and stamped it with his own private seal.

Charlie signed the contract, stamped it with the bank's seal, and handed a copy of the contract to Yan Jiekuang.

Yan Jiekuang collected the contract and asked, "When can I get the property certificate?!"

Charlie said, "Lawyer Bill will accompany you to handle the transfer procedures. You should be able to get the property certificate today. As for the property you want."

Without waiting for Charlie to finish his words, Lou Xiaoe said, “Jie Kuang, our company has its own property.”

Yan Jiekuang shrugged helplessly at Charlie. Charlie smiled and said, "Mr. Yan, I look forward to working with you next time."

"No problem!" Yan Jiekuang replied, and left the VIP room with Lou Xiao'e and Lawyer Bill.

Because he had a lawyer with him and Yan Jiekuang was generous, he arrived at the Land Registry and transferred all the office buildings to his name in just half an hour.

After walking out of the Land Registry, Yan Jiekuang waited for Lawyer Bill to leave, then looked at Lou Xiaoe. Lou Xiaoe asked, "What are you looking at?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "Look at the beautiful women."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "I am good-looking, but I am still not as good-looking as your Xiaohui."

Yan Jiekuang then asked: "Where are we going next?!"

Lou Xiao'e said: "Of course, go to my property management company to sign the management contract. But I have to remind you that the fees charged by my property management company are not low."

Yan Jiekuang replied, "The last thing I lack is money." After that, Yan Jiekuang walked to the side of the car, opened the passenger door and got in. Lou Xiaoe walked to the side of the car and said, "What do you mean?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "I don't even know where your property management company is. Instead of asking you to show me the way, I'd rather let you run it yourself."

"I owe you this." After saying that, Lou Xiao'e sat in the driver's seat, fastened her seat belt, and said, "Hold on tight!" Then Lou Xiao'e started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the car shot out directly.

After driving for a while, Lou Xiao'e suddenly thought of what happened at the bank and asked, "Yan Jiekuang, you just told Charlie that the lease was about to expire. He agreed to your offer. What happened?!"

Yan Jiekuang said: "The property market needs confidence. Now is not the past, and the return of Hong Kong City is something that cannot be changed. Even if England is unwilling to return it, it is useless. The two sides are so close, to put it bluntly, our country's army can march over in one goose step. Although the property market in Hong Kong City is relatively stable now, it has shown signs of decline. Now it's just waiting for someone to give it a push from behind. Because they have no confidence in the future, Charlie and other foreigners will definitely dispose of the real estate in their hands as soon as possible. They can get a high price if they dispose of it now, but it's hard to say in the future."

Lou Xiaoe then asked: "If you are not optimistic about the future, why do you still want to buy it?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "They are not optimistic, but I am. Now is just the beginning. After two or three years, I plan to buy at the bottom. Although I can't achieve the title of Lou Bancheng that your father achieved back then. But at least I can have a place in Gangcheng."

Lou Xiao'e joked: "You are really ambitious, aren't you?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "Ambition is motivation. Without ambition, where would motivation come from?! Besides, if one wants to live a carefree and comfortable life, one must have strength. If nothing else, at least one must have money."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and joked: "You still don't have enough money now?!"

Yan Jiekuang replied: "It's a lot of money, but I'm not too old now, I should find something to do, right?!"

Lou Xiao'e continued, "Now that you mention it, it's true. I like your little son very much. What do you think? How about making him my godson?!"

Yan Jiekuang said, "I have no objection to this matter. But you still have to ask my wife. If she agrees, then there will be no problem. We agreed on this when we got married. I will take care of the outside affairs and she will take care of the inside affairs. I will take care of the big things and she will take care of the small things. But there are no big things in our family, so she will take care of everything."

"Yan Jiekuang, you are really great! You make being afraid of your wife sound so reasonable. You are the first person I know who does that." As she spoke, Lou Xiao'e unconsciously sped up the car.

After about a quarter of an hour, Lou Xiaoe drove the car into the parking lot. After parking the car, Lou Xiaoe pulled out the car key and urged, "Get out!"

"Hey!" Yan Jiekuang responded, pushed open the car door and got out.

Lou Xiao'e took Yan Jiekuang out of the parking lot and walked directly into the office building next door. They took the elevator to the ninth floor. As soon as they got out of the elevator, Lou Xiao'e saw Lou Shichang coming towards them. Lou Xiao'e shouted, "Brother!"

Lou Shichang was stunned and asked, "Why are you here?!"
