Translator: GravityTales Editor: GravityTales
Long Zhengyu eventually gave Tang Xiu a bank card with 1 million yuan in cash. He originally wanted to give 5 million to Tang Xiu, but Tang Xiu refused to accept more money from Long Zhengyu, since he wanted the spot with Spiritual Vein on Wanted Hill Village.
However, Long Zhengyu repeatedly guaranteed that he would build Tang Xiu’s “Heavenly Palace”. He also gave his words that the place would become the most beautiful scenery and landmark of Walled Hill Village.
Tang Xiu hesitated before he finally agreed to Long Zhengyu’s offer.
On one hand, Tang Xiu really cherished the memory of the Immortal Mansion’s blessed land in the Immortal World, as he wished and wanted to reconstruct it here. On the other hand, Long Zhengyu was really attracted to the whole “Heavenly Palace” Tang Xiu had drawn, so he blurted out to develop the entire Walled Hill Village according to its design and make the Heavenly Palace as its core.
Since it also benefitted the both of them, Tang Xiu naturally didn’t refuse.
After leaving the hill, Tang Xiu went to a real estate agent.
Tang Xiu wanted to temper his body. This naturally neither could be done in his home nor the barren hill in the countryside. Although Walled Hill Village was a good choice, but it was very likely that another fierce beast was there. Tang Xiu didn’t want to be sneak-attacked by fierce beasts during closed-door practice.
Therefore, he was looking for a single, quiet, and remote house with a perfect security system to practice and quench his body.
When Tang Xiu spoke about the requirements for the house, the real estate agent looked at him with a strange expression.
“Mr. Tang, a single, quiet, remote house is easy to find. But since you also want a house with a high-security system, this is a bit hard to find. Only in the kinds of a luxury high-end district or luxury villa area will you find the house that has a high-security system. You’ll never find it in an ordinary residential district.”
“Since you have mentioned these three conditions, there seems to have only one such district in the whole Star City. But the district’s rental fee is particularly high and also very strict with identity checking…” The real estate agent looked at Tang Xiu’s clothes and spoke with a hesitating expression.
“What’s the meaning of this strict control of identity?” Upon seeing the real estate agent’s awkward expression, Tang Xiu spoke in an amazed tone.
“Because the people who live in that district are a wealthy and respectable people. The district’s owner seems to have formed a convention, that is, ordinary people can’t live there. Outsiders could only live there if there is a guarantor from the house’s owner.” The intermediary agent hesitated first before softly explained.
Tang Xiu was completely silent after he heard the broker’s explanation.
Tang Xiu did not continue to talk with the broker, and instead took his phone out and directly dialed Long Zhenglin’s number.
“Eldest Brother, we’ve just separated for a short while, but you already want me. I knew that Eldest Brother really loves me, hahaha!” Long Zhenglin was still in buoyant mood after having obtained Walled Hill Village as he laughed and teased.
Hearing his answer sent chills through Tang Xiu as he snappily cursed at him. Then, he asked Long Zhenglin whether he knew about the South Gate Town’s owner.
“Do you want to rent a house in the South Gate Town? Hey, why didn’t you say so earlier? You don’t know that the South Gate Town is developed by our family?” After listening to Tang Xiu’s question, Long Zhenglin replied in a surprised tone.
The next moment, the person speaking on the phone changed, “Brother Tang, the houses at South Gate Town have long been sold out. It’s basically not for renting purposes, but long ago my friend had bought a house in South Gate Town. But when he had finished decorating the house, he found that the house was close to a hill and had poor natural lighting, so he hasn’t moved in yet. If you want, I could give it to you directly.”
“Either you can sell it to me according to the market price, or I find another place, I can only choose between the two.” Upon hearing that Long Zhengyu intended to give it to him, Tang Xiu got a headache and didn’t hesitate to refuse.
“You… ah, Brother Tang. It’s not that I… ah. You really have a serious nature. You will have no friends later. That house is big, but the natural lighting is too bad. It simply couldn’t be sold at any price. Otherwise, my friend would have long sold it and wouldn’t have been vacant for so many years. Well, if you really want to buy it, 1 million yuan is fine. I’ll immediately give the key to you.”
Long Zhengyu simply didn’t give the opportunity for Tang Xiu to speak and directly finalized his decision on the phone.
When Tang Xiu hung up the phone and let out a wry smile, he found the broker looked at his face with a stagnated expression. Tang Xiu then understood the reason, because the broker also heard the content of his conversation Long Zhengyu.
“Mr. Tang, I’m really sorry. I didn’t know you were Chief Long’s friend. I was really rude a moment ago.” The broker embarrassedly smiled toward Tang Xiao smiled and hurriedly apologized.
“Is Chief Long very famous in the Star City?” Tang Xiu was puzzled and asked.
“Mr. Tang, 90% of Star City’s girls are estimated to have known about Chief Long. Could you even tell that he’s not famous?” Tang Rong said with a face flushed red.
Upon hearing it, Tang Xiu was quite stunned. Although Long Zhengyu was a bit handsome, but it was not to a degree that it would shake the world. Besides, Long Zhengyu was a businessman, not a star. How could he possible have such fame in Star City?
But Tang Xiu did not ask further, but rather turned away from the real estate agency and headed to the appointed meeting place with Long Zhengyu.
A few minutes later, Long Zhenglin personally sent the key and ID card over. When Tang Xiu handed his bankcard, Long Zhenglin refused to accept it.
