Chapter 563: Chapter 537: I want it
Zhang Ming hurriedly opened the property management’s mailbox and opened the registration book.
When he saw who the owner of Villa No. 1 was, Zhang Ming’s face changed instantly.
It turned out that the owner of Villa No. 1 was Su Wanyi.
That man must be Ye Chen without even thinking.
Seeing the photo, Zhang Ming’s hand trembled, and his phone fell to the ground.
The newly purchased phone hit the ground directly, and the screen shattered instantly.
One of Zhang Ming’s buddies saw his devastated look and couldn’t help but ask, "What’s wrong?"
Zhang Ming said with a cry: "The car owner is really the owner of Villa No. 1, and he’s a super big shot."
Those friends immediately looked at Zhang Ming with sympathy on their faces.
Zhang Ming’s arrogant demeanor just now must have completely offended the other party.
This time he hit a hard wall, failed to show off, and ended up looking stupid.
At this time, a friend said, "Brother Zhang, why don’t you go to Villa No. 1 and apologize? Otherwise, offending such a big shot, you’re doomed. In these times, what’s face worth?"
Zhang Ming gritted his teeth, thinking about his arrogant behavior just now, and felt extremely regretful.
At this moment, another older friend said, "You, ah, you, still care about face now? You might lose your job and still want to live in this big house, can’t even pay the property fees, right?"
Zhang Ming took a deep breath and reluctantly dialed his brother-in-law’s number.
"Brother-in-law, I messed up."
On the phone, his brother-in-law started a tirade of curses.
"Are you stupid? What did I tell you? Do you really think you can afford to offend the people living there? Now look, you’ve offended such a big shot, and I wonder how you’ll clean up this mess."
Zhang Ming cried out: "Brother-in-law, you have to save me."
At this moment, Ye Chen and Su Wanyi were in the screening room.
The two people were watching a horror movie.
At a tense moment in the film, Su Wanyi hugged Ye Chen tightly.
Ye Chen smiled slightly, as choosing a horror movie was exactly the effect he wanted.
Just then, suddenly the doorbell rang outside.
Su Wanyi’s expression changed slightly.
"Who could be knocking at this late hour?"
Ye Chen smiled, "It’s okay, don’t be afraid, I’m here."
Ye Chen and Su Wanyi went to the door and opened it.
When he saw who was standing at the door, Ye Chen immediately understood their intention.
A middle-aged man was holding two bottles of Feitian Moutai, with the previously arrogant Zhang Ming standing behind him, looking embarrassed with his head down.
"Mr. Ye, I am Qin Bin, the general manager of Da Mei Property. I sincerely apologize for disturbing you so late."
Ye Chen, although unfamiliar with Qin Bin, understood his intentions. Besides, Da Mei Group was a well-known property company in Modu, which Ye Chen had heard of before.
Since they came bearing gifts to apologize, Ye Chen’s attitude softened significantly.
Feitian Moutai is considered a valuable gift by others, but to Ye Chen, it was nothing.
Seeing the calmness in Ye Chen’s eyes, Qin Bin felt even more awe-struck by Ye Chen.
Ye Chen said, "Please come in. Whatever it is, we can discuss it inside."
Qin Bin entered the house, and just as he sat down, he said: "Mr. Ye, my visit today is to apologize to you. This unworthy brother-in-law of mine was truly out of line. I already know what happened and scolded him severely. He was also drunk, which led to offending you. So I brought him here to apologize to you."
With that, Qin Bin glared coldly at Zhang Ming, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Ye."
Zhang Ming shivered slightly, bowed his head quickly, and with a flattering smile, bowed to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, I’m sorry. I was ignorant and failed to recognize a great person. This whole thing was my fault. Please, be gracious and forgive me."
Ye Chen looked at Zhang Ming, who now resembled a lapdog, and thought of how he had been more arrogant than a tailless dog moments ago, finding it amusing.
However, to Ye Chen, Zhang Ming was nothing more than an ant, so he didn’t bother to argue with such a small character and waved his hand, "Forget it, this is not a big deal, but I’m quite dissatisfied with our property service. Without a guard at the gate, after paying so much to live here, how can we feel secure?"
Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, Zhang Ming’s face turned pale.
"Mr. Ye, I realize my mistake now, and we’ll definitely rectify it."
Off to the side, Qin Bin said, "Mr. Ye, I take responsibility for this too. Rest assured, I will personally oversee the security issues of our community’s property management. I promise to make this the safest and best-serviced community."
Ye Chen listened and finally nodded in satisfaction.
"Alright, since that’s the case, I won’t pursue today’s incident any further. By the way, are there any houses available in our community?"
Hearing Ye Chen’s question, Qin Bin’s eyes lit up.
Recently, he was experiencing financial difficulties, and there indeed was a vacant house in their community that couldn’t be sold.
Moreover, he was short on funds for a land auction he was attending, so if Ye Chen could buy it, that would be perfect.
"We do have a villa that’s still unsold. If Mr. Ye is interested, I can offer you a 30% discount."
Ye Chen nodded, "Alright, I’ll take it."
Qin Bin was stunned for a moment, "You’re not even going to ask the price?"
Ye Chen said with a faint smile, "I’m sure Mr. Qin will give us a good price."
Qin Bin nodded, "Rest assured, I will offer you the most favorable price. The villa’s orientation and everything are excellent. Does 280 million work for you?"
"That’s fine," Ye Chen agreed without a second thought.
Beside him, Zhang Ming was already dumbfounded.
This big shot is incredible, buying such an expensive villa without a second’s hesitation.
Thinking about how he tried to show off just now, he felt utterly foolish.
Qin Bin was overjoyed. Initially, he was short of funds for participating in a land auction.
With Ye Chen’s money, he could immediately join in on the auction.
"Alright, prepare the paperwork, and I’ll transfer the money directly to you," Ye Chen said calmly.
This amount of money, Ye Chen didn’t even blink when he paid, truly astonishing.
Qin Bin was increasingly alarmed by Ye Chen’s background.
Although he knew Ye Chen had a background, he didn’t expect it to be this impressive.
It’s known that he’s interacted with many wealthy individuals, most of whom have more fixed assets and less liquidity, relying on bank loans.
But Ye Chen casually spent 280 million and paid on the spot.
He’s met many wealthy people, but this was the first time meeting a wealthy person who spent 280 million as if it were two dollars.
The two verbally agreed on a deal, and procedures could be completed the next morning.
Now that the matter was resolved, Ye Chen followed Qin Bin and Zhang Ming to move the car.
Outside, those rich second-generation kids were still waiting.
These people, upon seeing Ye Chen, wore expressions quite different from before, each with a flattering smile.
Ye Chen glanced at everyone and said, "I advise you all to park your cars here. Since you’ve been drinking, don’t drive. Otherwise, call a driver; irregular driving can bring tears to your loved ones, you know."
