Chapter 287 Buying a House (Asking for Monthly Tickets)
Gao Yuan was a little confused, but he didn't stop. He just casually replied: "You recognized the wrong person."
The stewardess was a little surprised, and the smile on her face froze for a moment.
Soon, she showed a playful smile on her face and didn't say anything else.
She just watched Gao Yuan's back quietly, but her eyes seemed to reveal a firm message.
Leaving the airport,
Gao Yuan couldn't help thinking of the little girl just now.
The words "I know you" were like a seed, quietly sprouting in his heart.
After leaving the airport, they were followed by Zhang Yu to the No. 1 Courtyard.
Zhang Yu was an orphan. He didn't go home during the Chinese New Year, but chose to stay in the distant science and technology city.
And now he is still a bachelor. Gao Yuan thought he had to find a chance to introduce a partner to Zhang Yu.
Having a family will make him more stable.
After returning home,
he took out the little note.
Gao Yuan decided to add the WeChat of this shy stewardess.
He was curious and also wanted to solve the doubts in his heart.
Not long after adding, the other party accepted his request and sent a message.
"Mr. Gao, I always remember you."
Gao Yuan lay on the sofa and did not reply immediately, but began to look through the little stewardess's circle of friends.
The little stewardess's circle of friends revealed the content of loving life.
She posted a lot of photos of food and travel.
This is quite suitable for a stewardess.
Fly to a place, stay for a short time, and take the opportunity to experience different customs and people.
Until he turned to a Sanya video posted by this little stewardess.
This video is exactly the scene where he confessed to three women.
Could it be that this little stewardess saw him at that time?
He hid so far away to change clothes, and was still noticed.
It was so long ago that Gao Yuan had forgotten the confession in Sanya, and he didn't expect that someone could still remember him.
In the following conversation.
The little stewardess told Gao Yuan that her name was Meng Wanqing.
Since she saw Gao Yuan in Sanya that time, she has been getting to know Gao Yuan.
He often comments on Gao Yuan's social account.
Because Gao Yuan hasn't paid attention to his social account for a long time.
There are countless messages on it every day, and he has no time to read them.
Now he has more than one million fans on Douyin.
The fans on Weibo have exceeded two million.
It seems that this is a little girl who loves him.
Gao Yuan saw the little essay sent by the little girl and smiled in his heart.
Being liked by others is always a happy thing.
"Thank you for your love."
Gao Yuan replied very officially.
But this sentence made Meng Wanqing very happy.
Ever since she saw Gao Yuan confess his love in Sanya that day, she has inexplicably fallen in love with Gao Yuan.
One of the reasons is that Gao Yuan is richer.
After all, being able to be friends with Wang Sichao is definitely not an ordinary person.
In addition, he discovered Gao Yuan's preparation before confessing his love.
He felt that such a man was very attentive, and it would be very happy to have a relationship with such a man.
Today on the plane, I met Gao Yuan again and thought it was a fate arrangement.
So after seeing Gao Yuan fall asleep, she took the initiative to put a blanket on Gao Yuan on the plane.
When Gao Yuan got off the plane, she said that.
In fact, she was afraid that Gao Yuan would not add her.
After all, with Gao Yuan's status, he didn't need a little stewardess like her.
Gao Yuan was surprised by this coincidence, and felt that the young girls nowadays were really brave.
When he was this age, he would blush when he saw a beautiful girl.
Gao Yuan chatted with the girl for a few words, and then found a reason to quit WeChat.
Lying on the sofa, Lin Wanyu came to his side with a plate of fruit.
Gao Yuan naturally rested his head on Lin Wanyu's legs, and enjoyed Lin Wanyu's feeding.
Li Mengqing was also sitting next to them at this time to make tea for the three of them.
"Brother, my dad knows that we are back, and he wants to have a meal together tomorrow."
Lin Wanyu fed Gao Yuan a piece of cantaloupe, and then said.
"Okay!"
"Eat at home or go out."
Gao Yuan almost forgot about this matter.
He really had to go to the Lin family.
Whether considering Lin Wanyu or Lin Hongnian who has been helping him a lot, he should go to pay New Year's greetings.
"Eat at home."
Gao Yuan looked at Li Mengqing again at this time.
Li Mengqing's family is basically in Australia now.
Li Lin is also in Australia now. I wonder if Li Yu is in Hangzhou.
"Are your brothers in Hangzhou or in Australia?"
Gao Yuan asked Li Mengqing.
It's the New Year, if there is a chance, we should get together.
"I went to Australia for the New Year."
Li Mengqing didn't expect Gao Yuan to ask about this.
But she also understood what Gao Yuan meant, that is, he wanted her to experience the feeling of being together as a family.
Last time, because of Gao Yuan, he actually experienced it.
So,
Now Li Mengqing's eyes are full of emotion again when she looks at Gao Yuan.
Since it is decided to go to Lin Hongnian's house tomorrow, Gao Yuan is also thinking about whether to take advantage of tomorrow to go out and look at houses.
It's time to solve the issue of buying a house in Hangzhou.
"I'm going to buy a house."
"Do you have any favorite places?"
Gao Yuan glanced at Lin Wanyu and Li Mengqing and asked in a questioning tone.
"We don't have any requirements, as long as it can accommodate us."
Lin Wanyu and Li Mengqing looked at each other and smiled.
They are all used to letting Gao Yuan make the decision, and they don't care about the house.
You can buy it anywhere, as long as everyone can live together.
They don't want to be in a situation where they have to go out and stay in a hotel because they can't accommodate themselves.
The hotel suite is quite comfortable, but it is not your own home.
Lin Wanyu thought for a while and said, "I heard that some new residential areas have been developed near the West Lake."
"The environment is very good, not far from the city center, and suitable for living. How about we go and have a look tomorrow?"
Gao Yuan nodded, "Okay, let's go see it together tomorrow."
It was late at night, Gao Yuan turned off his mobile phone and enjoyed the quiet night with Lin Wanyu and Li Mengqing.
He knew that a new day would bring a new beginning.
And the matter about the little flight attendant Meng Wanqing may be just a small episode in his life.
The next morning.
Gao Yuan took Lin Wanyu and Li Mengqing to the residential area by the West Lake.
The environment here is really good.
Even in winter, it is the most beautiful place in Hangzhou.
The sun is shining, the lake is sparkling, and the gentle breeze brings a bit of coolness, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Gao Yuan first went to the residential area Lin Wanyu mentioned yesterday.
This is said to be a residential area, but it is actually an ecological villa area.
The overall decoration style is modern, which looks quite comfortable.
Perhaps because housing prices have dropped, such a villa only costs RMB 100 million.
This is in line with the requirements of the system tasks.
but,
Gao Yuan was not in a hurry to settle down, but was going to look at a few more places before talking.
If it is settled, he will most likely live here for a long time in the future.
The three of them walked along the West Lake and passed many villas and mansions.
But there wasn't the kind of house that Gao Yuan fell in love with at first sight.
When it was around eleven o'clock, Gao Yuan and the others started to go to Lin Wanyu's house.
This is also his first time visiting his father-in-law during the Chinese New Year.
This time he brought Li Mengqing with him, and Lin Hongnian's family had already known about the relationship between the three of them.
In addition, Li Mengqing often came to Lin Wanyu's house when she was a child, and Li Xiumei also regarded her as her own child.
There was no such thing as estrangement.
For Gao Yuan,
It was also impossible for him to let Li Mengqing stay at home alone during the Chinese New Year.
The car slowly drove into the courtyard of the Lin family villa, and Lin Wanyu's younger brother Lin Sida was already waiting at the door to greet him.
When Gao Yuan saw Lin Sida, he felt that Lin Wanyu's younger brother also had some changes.
During this period, as Lin Group was acquired by Yuanfang Group, Lin Sida also began to be responsible for some specific matters.
This is the result of discussions between Gao Yuan and Lin Hongnian, who want Lin Hongnian to give some power.
He wanted Lin Sida to also experience it, he couldn't always be protected by Lin Hongnian.
Gao Yuan and the other three followed Lin Sida into the villa.
He saw Lin Hongnian sitting in the living room drinking tea. Li Xiumei was not here, so she was probably in the kitchen preparing meals.
The three of them had just sat down. Gao Yuan and Lin Hongnian were chatting first, and Qi Zilin also walked out of the room.
She wore a simple and elegant cheongsam today, with her long hair tied back. She looked much more elegant than before.
Gao Yuan didn't think too much about Qi Zilin's change.
This was his younger brother and sister, and he had no idea.
After some pleasantries, Gao Yuan was taken to the study by Lin Hongnian.
The living room is very elegantly decorated. Several paintings and calligraphy by Lin Hongnian when he was young are hung on the wall. The bookshelves are filled with classics and precious art collections.
Lin Hongnian brought Gao Yuan to the study room just to talk about business matters.
Because Yuanfang only started selling it again a year ago, it is currently in the limited sales stage.
Lin Hongnian mainly wanted to know Gao Yuan's plans for the future.
"Are you planning to start full-scale sales after the year?"
Lin Hongnian said straight to the point.
Now he is considered a member of the distant place, and there is no need to test it like before.
"Full sale."
“But some new packages will be introduced.”
Women’s Day will soon be coming after the new year, which is a big sales node for skin care products.
so,
Whether it is GY or Rudie, they will create several new packages.
GY’s package will be priced within 1,000 yuan, and Rudie’s package will be priced within 5,000 yuan.
The most important thing,
These packages are all for international big-name skin care products.
in addition,
Gao Yuan revealed a piece of information to Lin Hongnian.
That is to prepare him to survive cosmetics-related products.
Products such as lipstick, eye shadow, blush, etc. are all involved in skin care products from far away.
This type of product does not require much technical content.
At present, domestic related products are doing very well.
so,
No system support is needed at all.
certainly,
Gao Yuan will also take advantage of a loophole here.
These beauty products are produced using the secret recipes of some skin care products.
This requires research by the Lin Group Laboratory.
But sometimes he will mark all the beauty products to improve their effectiveness.
That is to say,
After the Chinese New Year, Yuanfang’s skin care products will be fully benchmarked against international brands.
Anyway, everyone is in a competitive state now, and it is equivalent to tearing each other apart.
Just do it.
After talking about business, Gao Yuan asked Lin Hongnian if there were any special houses in Hangzhou.
When Lin Hongnian learned that Gao Yuan wanted to buy a house, he nodded.
With Gao Yuan's current wealth, it is indeed a bit inappropriate to live in Courtyard No. 1.
Just talking about Yuanfang Skincare, the Lin Group has been acquired, and the value of Yuanfang Skincare has increased a lot.
Gao Yuan holds 85% of the shares of Yuanfang Skincare. In terms of actual value, he is now a billionaire.
The security of Courtyard No. 1 cannot be well guaranteed.
"Have you considered a garden-style residence?"
Lin Hongnian thought for a while and said to Gao Yuan.
He just thought of a residence, which is quite good.
It is in line with the style of Jiangnan Shuixiang.
And the construction also refers to the characteristics of Suzhou gardens.
"Consider it!"
As long as it is comfortable to live in, I have no problem here.
"Then I'll make an appointment after dinner and take you to see it."
Lin Hongnian believed that Gao Yuan would definitely like the house when he saw it.
He had seen it two years ago, but he was still a little reluctant to spend so much money on such a house.
So he settled in this Chinese-style villa as a second choice.
The two chatted for a while, and Lin Wanyu came in and called them to eat.
The table was already full of a sumptuous lunch.
There was a family secret braised pork, fragrant sweet-scented osmanthus fish, and a variety of hometown stir-fries.
It was obvious that Li Xiumei had put a lot of effort.
After dinner,
the family sat together and chatted for a while, and Lin Hongnian made an appointment with someone, and took Gao Yuan and the others away.
The house that Lin Hongnian mentioned was actually also by the West Lake.
When Gao Yuan got off the car and saw the Chinese-style house in front of him, he suddenly felt an inexplicable tranquility in his heart.
This house is not a newly built villa.
Just by looking at the fence of the house from outside, they could tell that the house was a bit old.
The person Lin Hongnian invited was a female salesperson.
The girl looked very much in line with the style of this house, with a graceful temperament.
In addition, she was wearing a cheongsam, which made her a little beauty.
"Mr. Gao, hello, I am Xiao Wang."
Wang Yuqi knew that Gao Yuan was the customer who came this time, and was introduced by the boss himself.
So she was particularly respectful to Gao Yuan.
"Take us to see it first."
Under the leadership of Wang Yuqi,
Gao Yuan and the other four slowly walked through the carved wooden door, as if they had crossed time and space and came to a Chinese-style house immersed in the charm of ancient style.
As soon as they entered the courtyard,
Gao Yuan was indeed amazed.
What unfolded in front of him was not the warm and small space he imagined.
This is a large courtyard divided into three courtyards.
Each courtyard has its own unique landscape and layout.
The landscape in the courtyard creates a paradise.
The artificial rocks on the hills are cleverly arranged, and the water gurgles in the streams, as if it is a masterpiece of nature rather than a man-made sculpture.
The intricate and winding corridors are like a carefully drawn maze.
The three people couldn't help but explore every corner of this courtyard.
The shadows of the green plants along the way cast mottled light and shadows on the corridor floor, making everything more poetic and peaceful.
From Wang Yuqi's explanation, Gao Yuan realized that this was not a modern house.
This house has a history of nearly two hundred years.
This is a real southern garden-style house.
It is rumored that it is a heritage house built by a wealthy businessman in the Qing Dynasty.
Gao Yuan was a little noncommittal about Wang Yuqi's words.
Unless this house is inherited in an orderly manner, Gao Yuan would only listen to Wang Yuqi's words as a story.
After visiting this Chinese-style garden house, Gao Yuan was quite satisfied with it.
Gao Yuan stood under an ancient pavilion and took a deep breath, letting the fresh air fill his chest.
His eyes inadvertently swept across an ancient tree in the courtyard. The trunk was vigorous and powerful, as if telling the vicissitudes of history.
Here, without the hustle and bustle of the city, it is a paradise.
"It would be better if it were combined with some modern facilities." Gao Yuan sighed.
It is indeed good here, but the facilities inside still retain the previous style.
Especially the windows, which are still made of wood and paper.
Gao Yuan still likes the transparent large glass windows.
Not only is the interior bright, but it also allows sunlight to be projected into the house.
And Gao Yuan didn't see any electrical appliances here.
Some of the light sources are also introduced additionally.
He wants to live, not to retreat and practice.
Wang Yuqi saw Gao Yuan's hesitation and love, and smiled and said: "This place can be renovated later."
"The interior decoration does need some consideration, while retaining the antique style and integrating the comfort of modern life."
Gao Yuan nodded,
He has already outlined the preliminary concept of decoration in his mind.
The combination of modern and classical.
It not only preserves the historical charm of the house, but also provides comfort for modern people.
"How much is this house?"
Gao Yuan asked Wang Yuqi beside him.
When Wang Yuqi heard Gao Yuan asking about the price, surprise flashed in her eyes.
For such a mansion, the customers who come to see it are either rich or noble.
Generally speaking, they are not short of money. If they ask the price, it means that they like the style of the house.
"800 million."
Wang Yuqi said with a professional smile.
She looked at Gao Yuan after she finished speaking.
But she did not see any emotion from Gao Yuan's face.
Not only Gao Yuan, Lin Wanyu and Li Mengqing did not react to the price.
It's just a house worth 100 or 200 million.
In Hangzhou, such a house is not the most expensive.
Gao Yuan nodded after hearing the price.
"Mr. Gao, this house is actually worth it."
"The only disadvantage is that it needs to be redecorated and arranged."
"But this is also an advantage. It will be more in line with your living habits if it is modernized."
Wang Yuqi explained to Gao Yuan again.
Gao Yuan also had an idea about the price of this garden house.
800 million is indeed a high price, but it is not expensive either.
The Feng Shui layout, building materials and surrounding supporting facilities of this house are indeed worth the price.
Wang Yuqi was even more excited when she saw that Gao Yuan did not directly refuse.
She knew that such customers would not be too fussy once they decided to buy.
"Sir, if you are satisfied, we can further discuss the payment method and some housing discounts."
"No need."
Gao Yuan suddenly interrupted Wang Yuqi, and said calmly:
"I bought this house, in full."
Wang Yuqi was even more surprised when she heard the word "in full".
In this era when installment payment has become the norm, being able to meet a customer who buys a house in full means that Mr. Gao in front of her is undoubtedly a real boss.
Over the years, she has not served boss-level customers well.
Some people are rich, but they will also buy such properties in installments.
However, the installment here means paying in batches, not taking a loan from a bank.
"Okay, sir, I will prepare the contract now."
