I Have a Lake as I Walk Through the Courtyard

The couple, exhausted from the party, dragged themselves into the bedroom. The worker responsible for running the bathwater stood shivering in the doorway. Upon seeing the couple, he spoke a few words rapidly.

The young couple exchanged a glance after hearing this, then rushed into the bedroom. "Oh my god! Has the devil been here...?"

The young woman entered her walk-in closet, opened a drawer, and gasped in shock before fainting. Chaos erupted throughout the manor.

After escaping quite far from the manor, Lin Feng hurriedly got off his motorcycle, realizing he couldn't stay there any longer!

Lin Feng didn't stop until the motorcycle ran out of gas and he could see the dock in the distance. He cleaned the motorcycle in his spatial dimension and then threw it into the sea!

Upon entering the space, he tallied his spoils. Inside the safe were stacks of Hong Kong dollars, totaling over a million, along with a considerable amount of foreign currency, and several hundred thousand in loose change! Converted to Hong Kong dollars, it would be at least two million.

He casually tossed the gold bars into the box and took out the last item inside. It was a stick, completely covered in gold, with a fist-sized ruby ​​at the top, which amazed Lin Feng!

Lin Feng played with it for a while. Apart from cracking walnuts, he could hardly think of any other use for it. He casually threw it into his jewelry box and then sank all the documents in the safe into the sea.

The clothes were a bit too big, but I had to make do for now. After changing into a suit, the size looked a bit ridiculous, but at least it wasn't as conspicuous as my work clothes!

It is said that money gives men courage. With money and space, Lin Feng felt much more at ease. After all that trouble, he had a delicious meal in the space and rested for a night. The next day, he quietly left the space, and it was already noon.

The port city was still very hot. Lin Feng was sweating profusely after walking a few steps. Looking at the bustling docks and the reinforced concrete buildings, Lin Feng felt as if he had returned to the future and found a familiar feeling. Although he was in a foreign land, Lin Feng finally felt that he was no longer an outsider.

At midday at the dock, the workers were still toiling away, sweating profusely. Lin Feng watched for a long time, the sea breeze blowing. Once upon a time, he had been one of them. If it weren't for this space, he probably wouldn't even be as well-off as them after coming here.

I hailed a taxi and went to Central, where I had a meal on the street. I bought a set of rather understated and comfortable clothes, and after getting ready, I hailed another taxi to Lou's house.

There were many more police officers on the way up the mountain. After a moment of nervousness, Lin Feng regained his composure and looked at the police with a hint of schadenfreude.

With the specific address, they arrived at the Lou family mansion quickly. Looking at the villa, which was neither too big nor too small, Lin Feng sighed, "The rich are indeed rich wherever they are!" After paying and getting out of the car, he walked to the door and rang the doorbell.

The workers opened the door, glanced at Lin Feng's attire, and a hint of disdain flashed in their eyes. Lin Feng smiled wryly; he had come in a hurry and forgotten to get himself a proper outfit, and he felt a little regretful.

The two sons of the Lou family had already gone to the company, leaving Lou Zhenhua's other wife at home. After hearing Lin Feng's purpose for coming, she asked him some questions about things in Beijing.

"I should have done everything I could to help you since you came here, but if you need our guarantee..."

"What are your conditions, Madam?"

The middle-aged woman smiled. "My family may seem well-off on the surface, but it's not as good as you imagine. If anything were to happen, we couldn't afford it. I hope this young man can understand!"

Lin Feng wore a gentle smile on the surface, but his fists were clenched beneath. "In that case, I'll take my leave."

The middle-aged woman stood up. "Actually, since you're new here and don't have anywhere to go, you could work at our factory for a while. Once you're more familiar with the place, we can give you a guarantee so we can feel more at ease. May I ask where you're working now, young man?"

Lin Feng muttered to himself, "She's still testing me. But this woman is so cautious, the Lou family must be having a really tough time here." With that thought, Lin Feng bowed politely to the middle-aged woman.

"I apologize for my intrusion in coming today. Farewell!"

Seeing that Lin Feng was determined to leave, the middle-aged woman didn't try to stop him. "Ah Mei, please see my guest out!"

Lin Feng stepped out the door, shaking his head with a smile. He had come all this way to seek refuge, but hadn't even gotten a proper meal. It seemed that wealthy people were much more pragmatic than he had imagined.

There were still many police officers on the mountain. Lin Feng finally managed to hail a taxi and left this place of trouble. Walking on the bustling streets of the port city, he felt a little lost.

I got off the bus at a random spot and saw a tall office building with a GG sign. Suddenly, an idea struck me. "Driver, stop the car!"

As Lin Feng entered the office building, his casual attire didn't attract much attention. It wasn't until he went inside that a middle-aged woman slowly emerged, her tone laced with undisguised perfunctoriness. "Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

Lin Feng, with his powerful mental strength, possessed an extremely keen perception of good and evil. "No favors were shown!"

The woman momentarily forgot how to reply, and gave an awkward laugh. "Excuse me, please come in!"

Lin Feng walked in, his eyes scanning the room. Drawing on his over ten years of experience in the workplace from his previous life, he quickly spotted a middle-aged, overweight man. "Are you an agent?"

The fat man stood up, somewhat surprised. "Boss, do you know me?"

"I'm here to buy the apartment!"

Upon hearing this, the fat man looked around warily. "Boss, let's talk in the small conference room..."

Inside a small office, the chubby man politely brought over two glasses of water. "What kind of products does the boss want to sell? Do you have a suitable price range?"

Lin Feng sized up the fat man. "Actually, I mainly came here to get an ID card; the investment is just a side thing! I wonder, how much money would be enough to get an ID card quickly?"

Upon hearing this, the fat man breathed a sigh of relief. With the real estate industry in a slump, there are many people like Lin Feng coming from the mainland. The company already has many successful cases. After all, those who can come during this period are all quite capable.

"10 yuan! One month, that's the fastest."

Lin Feng fiddled with his teacup. "Tell me the plan!"

"We definitely need to buy the building, preferably one with commercial space, as that would be a big plus here. We also need a strong guarantor! Does the boss have any immediate family members here?"

Lin Feng shook his head!

The fat man frowned slightly. "Then we'll have to choose another path. If you want the fastest way, you'll have to pay a foreigner to act as your guarantor, but that's a bit pricey!"

"Can I trust you? 10 is no small sum!"

"We can sign a contract in the company's name; our credibility is absolutely guaranteed!"

Lin Feng pondered for a long time and asked for some specific details before nodding seriously.
