Ultimate Cash King
He truly couldn't comprehend the hobbies of the wealthy; what kind of twisted tastes were these?
However, Tang Shaofei inviting Xiong Chao over was likely to get his opinion on buying a house for himself.
The group greeted each other and took their seats one by one.
They chatted idly while admiring the beautiful scenery of Changteng River.
"Brother, tell me, what kind of things do you need?"
Chen Xiao said, "Get a few cars. Two business sedans, two SUVs, and two regular sedans."
Tang Shaofei asked, "Will the sedans still be Mercedes-Benz?"
Chen Xiao nodded, "Yes, still Mercedes-Benz. Get two S-Class models."
"Alright, then your brother here will also make a little profit," Tang Shaofei said with a smile.
"Hahaha, you should earn what you deserve. How can I let you do it for free every time? I'd feel bad," Chen Xiao said.
Chen Xiao wasn't short on money. At this time, favors were more valuable than money, so he tried not to owe any if possible.
The second-generation heirs present also understood this principle.
Sometimes, intentionally letting others owe favors could easily lead to resentment.
"For SUVs and business sedans, I also have connections, definitely cheaper than market price. Coincidentally, there's a car show this weekend; we can go check it out together then."
"Okay."
Zhang Meng had been waiting on the side for a long time and couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Ge, aren't you getting a sports car or something?"
Chen Xiao: "......"
"I haven't even driven that Ferrari back yet."
Zhang Meng: "Cough, cough, a sports car, whether you drive it or not, it's cool just to look at."
Chen Xiao thought about it, and it was true. Every time he passed by the Ferrari parked there, he felt a natural sense of satisfaction.
"Do your supercars also participate in the car show?"
"Yes, they do."
"Alright, we'll go see them together then."
"Got it."
Zhang Meng immediately brightened up.
Among this group, each had their own area of expertise, but what shocked them most about Chen Xiao was his cash flow.
The second-generation heirs all claimed to be worth hundreds of millions, but that was all in real estate, businesses, fixed assets, and so on.
Asking them to immediately produce one hundred million in cash, few could probably do it.
Just like Yan Bingqin, who was worth tens of billions, she couldn't come up with 2.7 billion in a short time and had to make up for it with land.
With the cars sorted, Tang Shaofei said, "For the house, Xiong Chao is the expert. What kind of place are you looking for, little brother?"
Xiong Chao chuckled, "Just a slight study, a slight study. Chen Xiao, tell me what you need, and I'll give you some advice."
Actually, Chen Xiao knew exactly where he wanted to buy a residence.
He just wanted to find a new office location, something he hadn't known anything about in his previous life.
"Oh, it's like this: our company is currently in an office building, and it's inconvenient with too many people around, so I want to find a new office space, preferably an independent building near Jinning University."
The others were stunned. An independent building? This meant he wanted an entire building!
Xiong Chao clearly hadn't expected Chen Xiao to want to buy a whole building; he thought at most it would be a villa or something.
After collecting himself, Xiong Chao changed his relaxed sitting posture and seriously said, "Brother, I'm not tooting my own horn, but I do have a project under my name that is very, very suitable for your requirements."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
Xiong Chao said, "You know Qian Lake, right? Our company has a real estate project by Qian Lake.
It's mainly villas, including an 8-story building, totaling 16,000 square meters, with 2,000 square meters per floor. It was originally built as aPackages office building for the villa area, but later..."
"Cough, cough, anyway, it's quite suitable for your requirements."
Chen Xiao was taken aback. Xiong Chao didn't finish his sentence, but Chen Xiao remembered some things.
He recalled that the Qian Lake villa project had caused a huge stir due to capital chain issues, leading to a very long period of construction suspension.
Because the surrounding facilities were quite complete, students from Jinning University would go there in groups to relax and play during every holiday.
Chen Xiao had been there a few times, so he had a deep impression.
"Is the main structure completed?"
Xiong Chao said, "The office building and surrounding facilities are completed, but the villa area project is still under construction."
"Oh." Chen Xiao thought for a moment. It didn't matter if the villas were stalled; what he wanted was the office building. "Okay, let's go take a look later."
Xiong Chao picked up the coffee on the table and said, "To be honest, Chen Xiao, if you can take a liking to it, that would be a huge help to me."
Chen Xiao chuckled, "Not at all. I just happen to need it, and you just happen to have it. If it's suitable, then isn't it a matter of course?"
Xiong Chao felt comfortable hearing this. "Come, let's toast with coffee instead of wine."
The two clinked their cups and, after drinking, Chen Xiao added, "Cars and a company building are both looking promising. I also need a river-view apartment by Changteng River."
Everyone: "......"
Although everyone present was a second-generation heir, they were still somewhat shocked by Chen Xiao's spending speed.
The economy in this era was not as developed as in later generations, and the net worth of the second-generation heirs had not yet skyrocketed. Spending a hundred million without even blinking, none of them had ever personally experienced that.
"Wh-what kind of house?" Xiong Chao asked.
Chen Xiao thought for a moment, "A large flat, I guess. The area doesn't need to be too big, within a thousand square meters is fine."
Everyone: "......"
Within 1000 square meters? Is it for raising pigs?
"Alright, it seems... my ultimate luxury home won't be safe," Xiong Chao said.
"Hahaha, your ultimate luxury home, paired with our ultimate cash king, a perfect match," Tang Shaofei joked.
Chen Xiao heard this and realized Xiong Chao had connections. As expected of a second-generation heir in the real estate industry, he was very professional.
Xiong Chao sighed, "Alright, there's a king-sized unit in Binjiang No. 1 that a friend reserved for me.
But the company needs money right now, and I can't buy it for a while.
And I don't want to keep them waiting out of politeness. Chen Xiao, if you need it, you can go check it out."
"So, I guess this counts as... taking what someone else loves," Chen Xiao said.
"Hey, what's that? I can't buy it for now anyway, and they're holding it for me out of politeness, occupying so much capital. I feel bad about it too. If Chen Xiao takes it, it's like solving a worry for me!"
Chen Xiao saw that he was sincere and nodded, "Alright, then let's start looking at properties."
"Let's go!"
The group of second-generation heirs had nothing to do and loved to join in the fun. Seeing that the discussion was over, they clamored to go together.
After going downstairs, the courtyard was filled with all sorts of cars, from sports cars to SUVs.
But among all the cars, only Chen Xiao's E300 had the lowest price.
Tang Shaofei looked around and said, "Brother, you really should change your car."
"Hahaha, I'll get everything at the car show this weekend."
Zhang Meng said, "Chen Xiao, your phaeton will arrive this weekend. Can I borrow it for a display first? You can drive it away on Monday."
"Sure, no problem. Once the car arrives, you can arrange it however you want."
Zhang Meng gave a thumbs up, "Chen Xiao, you're a man of your word!"
......
Subsequently, a group of people formed a motorcade and headed towards Qian Lake in a grand manner.
The scenery of Qian Lake was considered top-notch in Jinning and even the surrounding areas.
The forest coverage here was extremely high, the water quality was excellent, the air was fresh, and the clear waves rippled.
In a few more years, real estate development here would be restricted to protect the natural environment.
These scattered early real estate projects near Qian Lake became unique.
Housing prices soared endlessly, and it was said that houses worth over a hundred million were everywhere.
