Chapter 138: Collecting the rent of a unit building [Subscription required]
On October 10, early in the morning, Wang Chengguang was still eating breakfast at home.
Gu Jingjing took out her phone and read the text messages at the table. She asked curiously while eating, "Brother Guang, it's Sister Taozi's message. She said she wants to ask you something."
"I don't know if it's convenient, or even if it is convenient, I don't know which door to knock on."
We can't treat everyone in society as fools. Wang Chengguang has said this himself, and Wu Xiaowei has also complained about it. We can't be too arrogant.
He has always been very honest in Xinghuo and has never shown anything in front of others in the company or with Gu Jingjing. However, in the community, Gu Jingjing has been coming in and out, and she and Xiaowei are as close as conjoined twins.
More considerate than the super bag-carrying girl.
However, after Da Miaomiao bought 902 at a premium, the Gu and Wang sisters spent various premiums to buy two houses on the 8th and 10th floors.
The best proof is that Yang Tao had something to ask Gu Jingjing early in the morning and sent a text message directly to her.
Wang Chengguang was also curious. "I usually keep my distance from her, and she can sense it. So since I invited Xiaowei out to play a few times and went to her house, she and you have become distant, right?"
Wu Xiaowei rubbed her waist and rolled her eyes at him, "How dare you ask? Forget it, I've been tricked and can't escape in this life, so I can only admit defeat."
"But Sister Taozi...tsk, I have a complicated mentality. I had a good impression of her at the beginning."
Wang Chengguang didn't ask any more questions. He told Gu Jingjing that she could send a message and then went to eat.
After a while, breakfast continued.
Yang Tao knocked on the door and Gu Jingjing ran to open it.
When Yang Tao came in, her face was even redder than Zhong Miaomiao's. Such an occasion was somewhat awkward, even for those who understood.
Wang Chengguang is thick-skinned, Wu Xiaowei is a jerk, and Gu Jingjing is even more shameless.
The 18-year-old Zhong Miaomiao blushed heavily.
Yang Tao's face turned even redder, but she still said hello and explained, "Boss Wang, I didn't mean to disturb you...for no reason."
"It's like this. I listened to Lin Xia and used all my money to buy a house when the real estate developer was offering a discount. I also paid off the loan, including borrowing a lot of money from my brother-in-law, who also took out a loan to help me."
"Now that housing prices have been falling, I am a little worried."
At this point, she coughed again, "The house issue is not important. After all, I am making a lot of money selling goods now. I led the Hanfu craze before October. Boss Meng of Dade Huitong still gave me 50..."
"I'm also asking on behalf of Mile. The Mi family bought the land for our Xinghuo headquarters. They spent nearly 100 million when they bought it."
"Now that the design bidding has ended and you have reviewed it, we are starting to build the base."
"The land price has dropped by more than 10%, and there is a trend of further decline..."
"Do you want to modify the contract? Based on the current land price? As long as you nod, Mr. Wang, Mi Lixiong will prepare a new contract and come over to sign it at any time."
"At this stage, Xinghuo Weibo is basically the only one that can dominate the market. Even if Mijia continues to lose money, they will build this headquarters and then promote their reputation in the real estate industry."
Wang Chengguang was speechless. "Lao Mi is a down-to-earth person. Please tell Milei what price they paid for the land before. I will notify the finance department today and directly transfer the money to Grand Vision Real Estate with a 10% increase in payment."
"As for you, how much money did you borrow when the real estate market fell?"
Yang Tao laughed awkwardly for a while before telling the number, "I borrowed 300 million. I don't have such credit in the bank, but I can borrow so much with Xinghuo. My cousin's husband also lent me 100 million. Apart from the loan, I saved more than million and invested it."
"The real estate market has fallen so much. I have seven houses of varying sizes to offer, and I have to pay the down payment and mortgage. I am a little worried."
"I didn't ask this myself. After Lin Xia expressed your views on the Lantern Festival, she bought houses vigorously. I did the same. This includes Yang Xiaoyun, Shi Xiaomeng, Shen Bing, Wu Di, Yang Zixi, etc. All the celebrities in the company are basically doing it."
"They were too embarrassed to ask me yesterday..."
Wang Chengguang couldn't help but drink a mouthful of soup before complaining, "Good fellows, you guys really have confidence in me."
When internet celebrities become popular, it is easy for them to earn tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But the cluster went to play with loans, to pay the down payment to buy a house?! They can only borrow a small amount individually, but with Xinghuo as their backer...the loan amount is large.
Yang Tao gave up the one-bedroom and one-living-room apartment in Hopson International that she had paid for in full and the small apartment that was originally upstairs from Gu Jingjing.
Enough to pay the down payment for seven new houses of varying sizes.
More than 500 million yuan for the down payment? ?! This was more than 500 million yuan when the real estate winter came and a large number of real estate developers were selling at a discount!
As he complained, a group of people including Yang Tao looked at him strangely, as if he was saying something outrageous.
Even if you don't know how he borrowed 20 billion, made a fortune during the financial crisis, and invested in Big Penguin, etc.
But he built the Spark Business Empire within a year after graduation. Do you still need to consider whether to trust him? Yang Taozhen didn't come here on his own. He was pushed out by a group of people to consult. Everyone didn't ask for much. They just wanted to hear Wang Chengguang say that the price would rise, so they could wait with peace of mind.
As for herself, even if she owed the bank 400 million yuan and had seven houses of different sizes with mortgages of to years each, the total amount was not a small amount of money, but she still would not come to ask specifically.
She has a silly and naive personality, and it won't change even after she grows up.
Just when Wang Chengguang felt that he seemed to have said some nonsense and attracted attention, there was a knock on the door. After knocking on the door, there was no movement from the people in the room, and then there was the sound of a key opening the door.
Wang Manni, whose hair was a little messy but whose face was made up very beautifully, walked in. She saw the situation clearly and was a little stunned. "Ah, Sister Taozi, you are here too. I slept in and got up late."
At this point she smiled shyly and ran to the dining table to sit in a corner.
Star fruit, "..."
She felt that she was the one who suffered a major social death!
Wang Chengguang once again showed off his bad behavior and took out several bank cards to distribute. "The private money you gave me before, after flying around for a month or two, the smallest amount became 15 million, and the largest became 40 to 50 million."
"How to spend this money is up to you guys to decide. You can buy more houses like Yang Tao and the others did and collect rent from them in the future."
"Or you can buy a store, invest in a real estate company and become a shareholder, it's all fine."
Four cards were distributed to Xiao Wei and the other two...
Several people looked at each other. Wang Manni reacted the fastest. She took her card, glanced at Wang Chengguang secretly, and buried her head in eating. She had insomnia again last night.
But the damn thing is that she is still a natural beauty who still has her first kiss.
I’m not as proactive as Zhong Miaomiao, so I can only be clever in some small things.
Yang Tao followed Wang Manni's actions and suddenly realized, "I understand, Mr. Wang, I will leave now and will not disturb you...your meal."
She really wanted to complain that her boss was a scumbag, but why did it seem like no one in the office had the same idea except her?
The money Wang Chengguang took out was used to suggest Wu Xiaowei and her friends to buy houses, buy, buy, buy, and even buy listed real estate companies at the bottom. So what are you afraid of? What are you waiting for?!
As for the matter of Mile’s family, doesn’t there also an answer?
Yang Tao walked away quickly. Wu Xiaowei didn't get involved with Yang Tao any more. She was afraid that she would drag him into a trap again. She held the bank card and said, "How about we buy all the houses in this apartment building?"
Wang Chengguang almost vomited blood. "Not really. There is no shortage of small apartments with two bedrooms and one living room, one bedroom and one living room, or four or five apartments per floor. What are you going to do with so many small apartments?"
"Are you really waiting to rent it out after you move?"
Wu Xiaowei nodded, "As long as you are sure to build a big villa in the university area, then if you want to collect rent, it would be great to rent one apartment building at a time."
Wang Chengguang did not ask Xiaowei, but asked Gu Jingjing, "What is the current market value of Dade Group?"
Gu Jingjing explained, "It has fallen back to 18 billion. Before the storm broke out, its market value was as high as 27 billion, and Meng Laicai bought a lot of land everywhere."
Wang Chengguang sighed again that under the big storm, the market value of the Ren family in Hong Kong Island fell from more than 200 billion to 20 billion.
The decline in Dade was all caused by the mainland stock market, which was only slightly affected. Of course, the Hanfu craze before the October Golden Week and another huge celebration ceremony with hundreds of newlyweds together could also support the market value.
"It's not cost-effective to buy at the bottom. Your total is only over 100 million. You have to find a more cost-effective way to buy at the bottom."
As he was talking, Wang Chengguang was speechless again. He realized that what Xiao Ma Ge had fooled him into doing last time was buying up the real estate and clothing group of Ren’s family, one of the old wealthy families in Hong Kong, which was quite a good deal.
The value of more than 200 billion yuan fell back to 20 billion yuan, and there are still real estate communities that have been completed near the Huangpu River and the Pearl Tower in Shanghai, just waiting to start construction.
A few minutes later, Wang Chengguang was still eating and said, "Don't rush the matter. Let me think about it in the next few days and then we can decide what to do."
The 11 trillion yuan budget was first proposed in early November, and was used to answer reporters' questions at the end of November to boost public confidence. Then, until the end of February 11, some large state agencies were still keeping statistics. The financial crisis had a strong and serious impact on China's economy.
After breakfast, Wang Chengguang went out.
Wang Manni followed him to the elevator and glanced at him faintly, "Brother Wang, I have to go to school."
She was the only one following here, the others had gone back to catch up on their sleep.
Wang Chengguang laughed awkwardly, "Are you suffering from insomnia again?"
Wang Manni nodded. "You're giving me more than 10 million. That's not a good idea, right? I've thought about it carefully. You should keep the card."
When she took out the bank card, Wang Chengguang asked in astonishment, "What's wrong?"
Wang Manni stared at him with wide eyes, "Look, you haven't done anything to me yet, but you're giving me over 10 million. Is that appropriate?"
"In other words, you gave me more than 10 million, and I didn't ask you to do anything? If it gets out, wouldn't it be a sign that you are worse than an animal? You know what that means better than me."
Wang Chengguang coughed and almost got a stitch in the side. Her logic was too weird.
Wang Manni stuffed the card into Wang Chengguang’s pocket and stopped talking.
Now it’s not a question of money.
She had been carrying bags and delivering water since she took the college entrance examination in June. She was upset when Zhong Miaomiao cut her off. Why didn't you do anything? Why did you give her money randomly? You agreed to buy one get one free with your cousin. Why don't you take action... Didn't Lao Wang have the idea of dealing with Wang Manni when he started to attack Gu Jingjing? That was four or five months ago.
Wang Chengguang was also confused. He had just harmed Miaomiao and felt like a scumbag. If he did something to Wang Manni again, he would feel like a scumbag with no bottom line.
………………
At night, outside the North Gate.
Before Wang Chengguang arrived, the place was already crowded with people. Finally, with the help of the security guard and the guest cashier, he returned to the spot where he had set up his stall last night.
Even if some things have been wiped out on the Internet...their popularity has been suppressed.
But the 500 servings of food bought here yesterday can be spread by word of mouth among many people!
……
Once, they were busy until about 8:00 p.m., when a Range Rover drove to the vicinity of No. 56 Middle School and stopped moving. A short-haired young man in the driver's seat complained to Lu Tao in the passenger seat, "I say you two are sick. You drove so far just to try some noodles with soybean paste? Jianbing Guozi?"
"You are sick, I am sick too, and I actually came here with you."
Lu Tao laughed strangely, "You know what, delicious snacks are not necessarily worse than the delicious dishes that cost tens of thousands of yuan in a big restaurant. I also heard this from some of my junior schoolmates."
The people in the back row were all eager to try, "Then I'll go down and queue up to buy it?"
The man in the driver's seat looked at Xiangnan with disdain and pulled out a few hundred-dollar bills from his bag. "Go and add the money quickly. Buy a few and we'll leave."
"If you ask me, can't you just let some of my lackeys do this little thing? If you guys consider me your friend, why don't you invite that guy named Wang to come out and play with you?"
"Wang is too disrespectful. Some of us like his spark and are giving him face and opportunities. We asked him out several times before the Olympics but he refused to come out."
"It's already after the Olympics. I'll see who jumps out first. When the time comes, he won't cry and beg for mercy. That's when he'll smile."
Lu Tao and Xiang Nan looked at each other, neither of them knowing what to say.
How to say it, this person is from North America, has a relationship with Xu Zhisen, and is also the one who wants to invest in Xinghuo. Lu Tao got to know him through Xu Zhisen's introduction.
The relationship is just like that. Lu Tao doesn't care about money. He has millions of dollars in his pocket, so he doesn't desire more. He still stays in a well-known design company, feeling that his talent is not appreciated, and waits to make a name for himself in design.
The other party asked him to make an appointment with Wang Chengguang, but he just smiled and refused and did nothing. Anyway, he had never contacted Lao Wang.
He is bored to death, for example, he is depressed about his lack of recognition, and the other party comes to him shamelessly and invites him to this and that, and he does not mind spending some of the money of the sucker.
Today, the other party came to his door again with a shameless face. Lu Tao also felt unhappy about being unappreciated for a long time, so he continued to take advantage of the situation.
After a few seconds, Xiangnan took the money handed over by the other party and said, "I'll go downstairs and queue up to buy food."
Xiangnan... Lu Tao defined the other party as a sucker, and he was also a sucker, eating and drinking for free. His life was similar to before, continuing to make tens of thousands of yuan a month, getting business orders from Internet cafes or illegal Internet cafes.
Drinking, clubbing, chasing girls, having enough food and drink, but no big ambitions.
He ran southward. When the short-haired young man mentioned the idea of making an appointment with Wang Chengguang again, Lu Tao coughed and said, "I'll go downstairs and take a look around. How about I take you to visit our alma mater? Xinghuo Weibo has nearly 1.4 million users, and I heard that Happy Farm is also going to enter Penguin Space."
“If Big Penguin and Spark collaborate more, it might be listed before Twitter in North America.”
A young man complained again, "It's useless to do anything in a year or so. Let's wait until the storm is over. By the way, where does Mr. Wang live? You have to tell me, right?"
Lu Tao smiled and said, "I will buy a few more and bring them back to my wife. She is more than three months pregnant..."
The two of you were talking about yours and mine, both of us were shameless and no one felt embarrassed.
But it is true that Charlene is pregnant. In this dimension, they got engaged on the eve of last year’s Chinese New Year, and the wedding was always scheduled for August 8. They have also been living together for a year.
