Chapter 79: Welfare Housing Part 1
Tong Shenyi exited the meeting and immediately took action to arrange the relevant matters.
Gu Wanrong began to think about how to solve the problem of jade and jadeite raw materials.
An idea came to Gu Wanrongâcould she draw a mine in the system? She hadn’t drawn anything similar in blind boxes before.
With this question in mind, Gu Wanrong eagerly asked, “System, is it possible for me to draw a jade mine, a jadeite mine, or a diamond mine in a blind box?”
[Host can first select a fixed asset category according to their needs, and then obtain the corresponding item through the blind box draw.]
Hearing this answer, Gu Wanrong immediately smiled happily, “So it is possible.”
She secretly rejoiced: Sure enough, nothing is a problem with the system.
However, when Gu Wanrong looked at the panel, she frowned slightly. The panel displayed the number of available blind box draws: 32.
It was pitifully few; she couldn’t even activate the blind box targeted selection function.
Gu Wanrong sighed helplessly and muttered to herself, “Sigh, it looks like I haven’t spent enough money lately!”
She continued to mutter, “Let me see, where can I spend more money? I’ll spend it there.”
Hmm…Lin Yu’s construction has already begun, and the funds transferred earlier must have been mostly used up, so I’ll transfer another 200 million to her.
“ăChina Construction BankăBao Fu transferred (400 million) yuan to your account ending in 6188. Please check.”
Butler Liu and Tong Shenba’s group followed her to City J, so I’ll upgrade their treatment. I’ll transfer 100 million to Butler Liu and another 100 million to Tong Shenba, and let them enjoy it.
“ăChina Construction BankăBao Fu transferred (400 million) yuan to your account ending in 6188. Please check.”
Didn’t I say I’d provide free legal aid? I’ll transfer 100 million to the Yingyuan Law Firm as compensation for their free work. This cannot be judged by the system as a loan, gift, or investment!
“ăChina Construction BankăBao Fu transferred (200 million) yuan to your account ending in 6188. Please check.”
Oh, how could I forget the employee dormitories! Buying houses as my fixed assets, the system had previously agreed that it wouldn’t be counted as a loan, gift, or investment.
Later, I can let the employees buy them at a low price under the guise of welfare housing, avoiding the system’s no-refund rule.
And so, Gu Wanrong acted immediately.
Dressed in casual clothes, Gu Wanrong arrived at the sales office.
This property was not close to the Wealth Building, but it was the closest one currently available for sale, with the most complete surrounding supporting facilities.
Gu Wanrong walked into the He Tai Yi Ju sales office, followed by Tong Shenba.
A sharp-eyed salesperson noticed the two walking into the sales office and immediately greeted them politely, “Hello, miss, are you planning to rent a house or buy one?”
Tong Shenba opened the door first, letting Gu Wanrong enter before following her into the sales office. This action was noticed by the salesperson with keen eyes, allowing her to easily identify who was the leader.
Gu Wanrong first leisurely looked around the sales office and said to the salesperson, “Buying a building.”
The salesperson’s eyes lit up, then showed an incredulous expression, “Excuse me, did you say buying a building, not a house?”
As she spoke, she led Gu Wanrong and Tong Shenba to the VIP room.
“The whole building,” Gu Wanrong said indifferently.
The salesperson, whose eyes were sparkling, became even more enthusiastic in complimenting Gu Wanrong on the way to the VIP room.
The VIP room had a separate sand table for guests to view alone, and the salesperson explained it in more detail.
Gu Wanrong stood in front of the sand table and carefully examined it.
He Tai Yi Ju was newly built less than two years ago. Although it’s not close to the Fortune Building, its location in City J is still good, so the occupancy rate is relatively high compared to other projects of the same period. Itâs lively and popular.
This is one of the reasons Gu Wanrong chose it. If it were a property with a low occupancy rate, it would be too quiet, unpopular, and unsettling.
Because there are shopping malls and schools nearby, the price is not low, averaging around 76,000 yuan per square meter, according to the salesperson. However, compared to the price of over 100,000 yuan per square meter in the city center, it’s still a good deal.
However, Gu Wanrong was just trying to spend money, so she only looked at the highest price, not the lowest.
Each building has three elevators and five units, with two three-bedroom units, one two-bedroom unit, and one one-bedroom unit on each floor, with a total of 33 floors.
The three-bedroom units have two sizes: a large one of 130 square meters and a small one of 110 square meters; the two-bedroom unit is 85 square meters, and the one-bedroom unit is 50 square meters.
Estimating it, one building would cost about 900 million yuan.
Gu Wanrong calculated that one whole building could accommodate at least 165 employees.
Then I’ll buy one for Xi Yuan Lai in City J and one for Yingyuan Law Firm, a total of two buildings. If the scale of these two companies expands later, I can buy more or build my own buildings.
After careful consideration, Gu Wanrong extended her slender white finger and pointed to two unsold buildings.
“These two buildings haven’t been sold yet, have they?”
The salesperson looked carefully at the two buildings Gu Wanrong pointed to and found that there was no indication of being sold out above them. Then, she took out her phone and carefully checked the data in the internal system, but she still couldn’t find any sales records for these two buildings.
Now, the salesperson finally relaxed and answered with anticipation, “Yes, as of now, these two buildings have indeed not sold a single unit. What does Ms. Gu mean?”
Gu Wanrong nodded slightly, showing a satisfied smile, “Then I’ll buy both of them. I can pay now.”
The salesperson’s eyes lit up like stage spotlights; she seemed to see countless coins beckoning to her.
She hurriedly led Gu Wanrong to a comfortable sofa, while trying to maintain her composure, and said softly, “Please wait a moment, I’ll be right back.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and ran towards their manager’s office like a gust of wind.
“Manager! A big client!”
Even through the door, Gu Wanrong and Tong Shenyi in the VIP room could clearly hear the excited voice of the salesperson calling for the manager at the end of the corridor.
In a few minutes, the salesperson returned, followed by a manager in a suit, whose face resembled that of a smiling Maitreya Buddha.
“Manager, it’s this Ms. Gu. She wants to buy Building No. 5 and Building No. 7, both buildings!”
The salesperson’s face was full of excitement; she immediately introduced Gu Wanrong upon entering.
The manager bent slightly and extended his hands, “Hello, Ms. Gu! Hello! I’m the manager here.”
Gu Wanrong didn’t shake the manager’s hand, only smiling and nodding in response.
The manager was not embarrassed, and continued to warmly greet Gu Wanrong and Tong Shenba to sit down before asking, “Are you planning to buy Building No. 5 and Building No. 7?”
“Yes, just these two. Just tell me the price.”
Gu Wanrong’s tone was calm; paying for two buildings in full was nothing to her.
The manager, seeing Gu Wanrong’s straightforward inquiry about the price, was somewhat puzzled. He leaned slightly to the side and whispered to the salesperson, “Have you taken Ms. Gu to see the houses? So fast?”
The salesperson quickly shook her head in denial.
The manager turned his gaze back to Gu Wanrong and suggested, “Ms. Gu, why don’t you go and see the houses yourself first? It would give you a better idea.”
Gu Wanrong shook her head; “No, I trust He Tai Yi Ju’s service attitude towards major clients.”
