The attic connects the past and present; I became a tycoon and got rich overnight!

Chapter 17 Could the mysterious big shot be her?

"Of course, thank you for your trouble, Lord Yang," Song Youan readily agreed.

I feel more at ease using the people from Wufangsi. They usually serve the wealthy and powerful families in the capital, so they are naturally more professional. That's why they are expensive.

Seeing that Song Youan was so cooperative, Yang Hechun nodded in satisfaction. After the deed was brought over, he said, "In the capital, luxurious residences like the Duke's Mansion, the Marquis's Mansion, and the General's Mansion are generally around ten thousand taels of silver. Of course, even if someone wants to buy these residences, they can't, because they are all bestowed by the Emperor."

“A house with five courtyards and five entrances is considered a large house, but due to different locations, the age of the house and other reasons, the price can range from two thousand taels to five thousand taels.”

"A house with three courtyards and three exits is considered a medium-sized house, and it usually costs no more than a thousand taels. If it is a new house on the main street, it may be more expensive."

As he spoke, he spread out the deed to the Zhuang family mansion in front of Song You'an: "This Zhuang family mansion is just a small house with two courtyards and two entrances, with a backyard that can be ignored. It is located in an alley in Fuhua Lane, not on the main street. In addition, the house is so dilapidated that it is already in a terrible state. Therefore, the market price has been dropping again and again over the past three years. Last month, it was even reduced to 150 taels, but no one was interested."

All of the residences for sale at Wufang Company have clearly marked market prices, and these prices are constantly adjusted over time. Some prices will increase, while others will decrease. It is rare to see a residence like Zhuang Mansion that has been decreasing all the way down.

One hundred and fifty taels was not a high price for Song You'an, and the price was not even within her consideration. No matter how much the house cost, she had to buy it.

“Since Miss Song is a friend of Miss Zhu, I will also give Miss Zhu face and sell the Zhuang family mansion to you for one hundred taels.” Yang Hechun laughed as he spoke: “Anyway, if you don’t buy this house, the price will drop to this level in two months. It’s just a favor.”

"Thank you, Lord Yang."

Song Youan was naturally happy to be able to save money.

Before she could even feel happy, Yang Hechun reminded her again: "Miss, don't thank me yet. The main reason this house can be sold for such a low price is that it's too dilapidated. The renovation and repair will probably cost a lot. Miss, please leave a deposit of five hundred taels today. We will make up the difference after everything is completed. Don't worry, Miss. Our Wufang Company will carefully record every step of the process. We won't charge you a single extra penny."

“Alright, then I’ll hand this house over to Lord Yang. I hope you’ll take good care of it.” Song You’an said, gently handing a red envelope she had prepared in advance to Yang Hechun: “Please don’t mind, sir, it’s just a little money for drinks.”

The red envelope was flat and couldn't hold silver ingots, so it was clearly a silver note.

The smallest denomination of the Da Zhao silver note was fifty taels. Yang Hechun immediately smiled and reached out to take it, saying, "Miss Song, you're too kind. It's all my duty."

Afterwards, Song Youan explained her requirements for the renovation and repair. Other things were secondary. She repeatedly emphasized that the small storage room in the backyard must be preserved exactly as it was.

And everything had to be completed within half a month, because she needed to deliver the goods in half a month. She couldn't just suddenly walk out of the warehouse and bump into the workers who were still doing renovations; she really wouldn't be able to explain herself then.

Yang Hechun accepted the red envelopes and naturally agreed to accept them all. He also told Song You to rest assured that he would definitely renovate the house beautifully.

Back at the villa, many packages arrived today, all containing everyday necessities.

After tidying everything up, Song Youan nestled on the sofa and began to look through the information about the Lanting Club that Chi Yu had given her yesterday.

Regardless, the club is now hers, and she has to take on the responsibilities that come with it.

She watched for more than two hours without realizing it, and only stopped when she got hungry. It was at this time that Chi Yu called.

"Ms. Song, the financial audit of Lanting is underway. You may need to come over. The audit team will need your signature after the audit is completed. Mr. Ye is here as well."

Song Youan frowned upon hearing this: "It's only a few months now, shouldn't the financial audit be at the end of the year?"

Chi Yu patiently explained, "Because the club changed hands suddenly, the review team conducted a surprise inspection this time. However, I have already reviewed the club's financial statements when I was compiling the club's information for you, and there are no major problems overall, so Miss Song doesn't need to worry."

So Song You nodded with relief: "Okay, I'll come over now."

After hanging up the phone, Song Youan changed her clothes and went out. However, because she lived in a very remote area, it took her twenty minutes to hail a ride-hailing car.

No, she needed to get a driver's license; otherwise, it would be too inconvenient. Upon arriving at the Lanting Club, Song You'an presented a black gold card, symbolizing a lifetime membership, to the receptionist, who subconsciously glanced at her a couple more times.

The club has more than 5000 members, but only three members hold black gold cards.

One of them is the owner of Lanting Club.

One is the richest man in China.

There was also a mysterious tycoon who had never visited the club.

Could that big shot be her?

After Song Youan left, the staff at the front desk couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"The third Black Gold Card has appeared!"

"That mysterious big shot?"

"I didn't expect her to be so young, and a girl at that."

"Do you know who it is?"

"I don't know, the black card doesn't show the member's name..."

"My goodness, she must be a rich second generation. She looks to be only about twenty years old. It's impossible for her to be so capable."

The change in the company's real power was never communicated to the lower-level employees, so these people did not know that Lanting Club had a new owner. Therefore, they subconsciously regarded Song You'an as the third black gold card big shot who had never appeared before.

Furthermore, the fact that the black card does not display a name makes Song Youan appear even more mysterious in their eyes.

On the 29th floor, as the elevator doors opened, the other elevator door slowly closed, and the audit team and Song Youan passed each other by.

In the general manager's office, Song Youan knocked and entered. The spacious room contained only Chi Yu and an elderly man nearing fifty.

In an instant, the system popped up again.

Name: Ye Deming
Sex: Male
Age: 51 years old
Place of origin: Lanport City
Education: Doctor of Law, Huaxia University
Position: Professor and Doctoral Supervisor at the Law School of Huaxia University; Legal Advisor to Lanting Club
Ability rating: 98.5
Reputation level: 99.5
Song Youan glanced at the information at a glance, focusing on the last two items, and then felt a little relieved.

He is highly competent and trustworthy, making him a reliable elder.

"Mr. Ye, right? Hello, I'm You'an." Song You'an took the initiative to greet him, and made it clear that she was a junior, introducing herself by her nickname, You'an.

In just one meeting, her actions left a very good impression on Ye Deming.

"Hello, Miss Song." Ye Deming extended his hand and shook hands with Song Youan.

He was very thin and about 1.8 meters tall. Although he was 51 years old, he had a particularly upright and stylish posture. His Zhongshan suit made him look even more serious.

"Mr. Ye, just call me You'an, it's more friendly," Song You'an said with a sweet smile.

Chi Yu, standing to the side: ?
He's several years older than Miss Song, so why is there such a big difference in their treatment?
