Chapter 1 Buying an unfinished building

In the height of summer, it was still scorching hot at six in the evening.

In the rental house in the urban village, Chen Ru was curled up on the sofa in a cool suspender dress, facing the air conditioner with his bare chest, and huffing and puffing on his first takeaway meal after get off work.

"Red fog has appeared frequently recently, but there has been no progress in the research on it. Countries have been unable to capture it using any tools, and the source is nowhere to be found..."

With the audio on on my phone, I watched my favorite Panda Daily videos, and then I swiped my finger to see the recently popular Red Mist video.

A month ago, a travel blogger uploaded a video taken in Antarctica.

In the picture, the red fog within a range of several meters is as red as blood. It appears and disappears in just one second, making it almost impossible to capture.

This video did not make much of a splash on the Internet until netizens from all over the world took videos of the red fog and uploaded them, attracting widespread attention.

There are all kinds of discussions online. Some believe it is due to air pollution, some say it is due to ghosts, and some even suspect the end of the world is coming.

Chen Er was brushing casually, also trying to guess what this red mist was.

But since I had never seen it with my own eyes, I was not too moved. After eating a few bites of food, I looked up through the window glass and saw the unfinished building opposite, and my attention was diverted.

After finishing the last few bites, she walked to the window, picked up the telescope on the desk, and enjoyed her daily appreciation of the unfinished building.

She has been coveting this building for a long time.

An eight-story, completely unfinished building with nothing else on it. It was built ten years ago and has been abandoned since the owner had an accident.

Because it was unlucky, it became a famous haunted building in the urban village and no one paid any attention to it after it was hung at the sales center for ten years.

Others don't want it, but she dreams of owning a building and being a landlord, lying down and counting money every day.

A good building can easily cost hundreds of millions, but one that looks so good that people would dare to covet it is rare. There is no other one like it in the whole Lan City. She really likes this building!
Young people nowadays are very bold. As long as you redesign and renovate it, who cares whether it is a haunted house or not? There will be many people willing to rent it!
There are three suites on each floor. The entire building is eight stories high plus the rooftop, and there is also a walled yard on the first floor, which adds up to about 5000 square meters.

This year the house price has dropped to 3000 per square meter, and it would cost 1500 million to buy the whole building.

Although she is still a freshman who just graduated a month ago and has an internship salary of 2,000 yuan, as a person, especially young people, it is important to have dreams!
As she was daydreaming with a giggle, two text message alert sounds rang out, cruelly bringing her back to reality.

I raised my head to a height of two and a half meters and looked around the single rental house which was only about 40 square meters in size.

There is a multi-layered flower rack on the balcony that is planted with fruits, vegetables and green plants, and there is a washing machine and some miscellaneous items, making it difficult to turn around.

The single bedroom was crammed with a bed, a desk, a lazy sofa, a refrigerator, an air conditioner, and various daily necessities, making it very cramped.

Chen Rui's face fell, and he walked over with his head hung, picked up the phone, opened it, and saw a text message about changes in the bank card balance.

"... An Ke'er's account number 5241 is transferred to your account number ending in 888 in our bank, the amount of income is 18000000..."

Chen Er thought he was seeing things and started counting the zeros: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6..."

I counted it five times and confirmed that it was six zeros!
Eighteen million!

Chen Er almost screamed.

calm down!
What if my cousin took the wrong turn?

Chen Er opened Fetion with shaking hands and was about to call his cousin An Keer on video.

The next second, the Fetion ringtone rang, and An Keer called!

Chen Er answered the call at the fastest speed in her life: "Sister! What happened to my bank card? Did you transfer the wrong amount of money?!"

"What? Are you too excited?" There was a hint of smile in An Ke'er's cold voice.

Chen Er nodded desperately, his voice excited: "So you didn't transfer the money to the wrong place? All this money is for me?!" "Have you forgotten the red envelope money you received during the Chinese New Year? I invested it for you. This is the principal plus the income accumulated over more than ten years of interest. Aren't you obsessed with buying that shabby building across the street?"

Chen Er suddenly realized.

Every year, the money from my Chinese New Year red envelopes is indeed invested by my cousin who is obsessed with financial management.

Because she didn't see any returns, she thought the money was wasted and was all squandered by her cousin.

did not expect!
"Ahhh! Sister! I love you so much!" Chen Er held the phone and said "mumm" loudly to the screen, "Wait until I take over the building opposite and collect rent, I'll give you half of the rent!"

She had just finished mum when the camera of An Ke'er's phone opposite her suddenly shook.

Chen Er realized belatedly that the background of the video on the other side was the interior of a high-end car. In the camera, her sister was sitting in the passenger seat, and a man in a black suit flashed by in the back seat of the car.

Broad shoulders, white and slender neck, and angular chin.

"Sister, where are you?" Chen Er asked tactfully.

"In the boss's car."

Social death scene.

She just screamed in front of her cousin's boss without any image!

Chen Ru tried to make up for his loss by immediately sitting up straight.

Knowing Chen Ru's reserved nature in front of outsiders, An Ke'er raised her eyebrows and diverted her attention: "I will take a flight back to Lan City tomorrow night, and will probably arrive the day after tomorrow morning. I will be on a business trip to Lan City for seven days at public expense."

"You're coming back?!"

An Keer works in Beijing and can only come back for a few major holidays a year. This one doesn’t happen during any festival, it’s such a big surprise!

Chen Ruo immediately decided happily: "Then I'll pick you up at the airport!"

An Keer glanced at her and said, "It might arrive in the early morning. Can you get up?"

As expected, she is my biological sister. Knowing her character well, Chen Ru's enthusiasm faded in an instant: "Oh, forget it."

Anyway, my cousin is more familiar with the road from the airport to Lan City Hotel than I am.

"If you can't handle the purchase of the house by yourself, wait for me to come back and we can do it together..."

"How could that be! I'm old enough, I can handle it myself!" Chen Er interrupted her, patting his chest.

Are you kidding? Of course you have to go buy a house right away. Can you wait? If someone with the same vision as her gets there first, she will cry to death!

After hanging up the video, Chen Ruo jumped twice on the spot and hurriedly contacted the Urban Village Sales Center.

She changed her clothes and went out at seven o'clock. The person in charge of the sales center was even more anxious than her and personally took her to run errands.

I swiped my card to pay 1496 million yuan, and the transfer procedures were completed before o'clock. All the miscellaneous matters such as land tax were also handled with one-stop service.

Back at the rental house, Chen Ru hugged the newly acquired red book and kissed it again and again.

She now owns a building!

She was so excited that she couldn't sleep. That night, she asked for seven days off from her company leader, notified the landlord to move out, and contacted the cleaning staff to clean up the unfinished building at a higher salary.

She's going to move in tomorrow!
