The time consumed by this trip to Italy was really beyond Jin Muchen's expectations. Toli Literature Network

I originally thought that it should be a simple thing to do, but I thought it would take more than a month in the end.

After returning home, Uncle Fang also asked what was going on, but Jin Muchen could only find a few lame excuses to fool the past.

And Candace was very unhappy with him that he was not able to accompany her to spend the Christmas holiday with her in Europe this time.

Fortunately, when he came back, DiMaggio gave him a lot of jewelry 'captured' from the Savastano family, which made Candace shut up.

After a whole night of "long talk" with Candice, plus countless sweet words, I finally coaxed Candice to be happy again.

It was already mid-to-late January, and the Spring Festival this year was relatively late, so it would have to wait until the beginning of February, so Jin Muchen was quite fortunate that he was able to come back to celebrate the Spring Festival.

In fact, celebrating Christmas and celebrating New Year's Day on the solar calendar are also doing as the locals do. After all, these two festivals are very important to Westerners, but in the heart of Jin Muchen, a native Chinese, the Spring Festival is more important.

And don't look at the fact that Fang Bo has been in the United States for more than 20 years, but he still hasn't forgotten the important festival of the Spring Festival.

During this time, there was no business in the store, so Candace went to school during the day, while Jin Muchen and Fang Bo spent three days fishing and two days drying the net.

Usually, as long as the business is not too busy, the two simply go out of business behind closed doors and go directly to Flushing to purchase. Getting ready for the New Years.

Although there is also a Chinatown in Manhattan, and it also retains the habit of celebrating the Spring Festival, most of the Chinese supermarkets in Chinatown here are mainly Nanyang style. After all, most of the people living in this Chinatown are old immigrants who crossed the sea from Xiangjiang, eastern Guangdong or Southeast Asia in the early years.

Therefore, the things sold in the supermarkets are more partial to the preferences of eastern Guangdong.

If the Chinese taste is stronger and the things are more complete, then you can only go to the Asian supermarket in Flushing to buy.

These days, Jin Muchen drives Candace to school every morning. After I came back, I drove the f150 when I had time, and took Fang Bo to Flushing to buy and prepare for the New Year.

He had also contacted his parents before, because he went back in the middle of this year, so he didn't want to mess around during the Spring Festival. He really wanted his parents to come to New York to spend the Spring Festival.

But my father's work has been very busy. And the more it gets to the end of the year, the more entertainment he has, so his parents haven't been sure yet whether he will come here for the Spring Festival.

But whether they come or not, things have to be ready.

Not to mention, driving this f150 can really pull a lot of things, and now Jin Muchen is not short of money, so buying things is even more generous.

Go to Flushing. It is often necessary to spend hundreds of yuan to buy things, but don’t underestimate the purchasing power of these hundreds of dollars and the purchasing power of China’s RMB 100. But it's completely different.

For example, a box of canned tempeh and dace, in Asian supermarkets in the United States, is more than two yuan at best, but if it is in a domestic supermarket, it will cost more than ten yuan.

So if you earn dollars, spend dollars. This money is still quite forbidden to spend, at least in the purchase of living necessities.

Hundreds of dollars of living supplies. That can definitely be regarded as a big purchase, and I bought several thousand yuan in a few days. Even Uncle Fang said it was a waste when he saw it, and also told him that these things, let alone the Chinese New Year, would be eaten right up to the middle of the year.

But Jin Muchen didn't care at all. He used to spend the Spring Festival in the United States when he was in school. At that time, he wanted to save money on air tickets and work to earn some living expenses, so he didn't go back to the Spring Festival.

Because I'm not a local tyrant, I can't spend money without blinking an eye. At that time, even if it was the Spring Festival, when I was preparing for the New Year's goods, I spent some money on it.

Now that there is so much money in my pocket, if I still dig Soso, I might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill me.

It's nothing to buy some food and drink. Jin Muchen said in his heart that you should wait for the next year.

Because of the tight parking space, he has not been buying a new car, and as a man, how many people don't like cars?

This f150 may be very powerful in China, but in the United States, it is a farmer's car.

And driving such a large-displacement pickup truck around the city doesn't seem to be the case. He has long wanted to sell a few cars, especially if he wants to buy another one for Candace.

But before buying a car, the first thing to solve is the problem of parking.

Parking in Manhattan has always been a big problem. There are many people and few places, so the parking spaces here have always been tight. Even if you park in front of your house during the day, you have to put coins in the meter, or you will have to pay a ticket.

So, of course, you have to consider the issue of parking spaces before buying a car.

Behind Jin Muchen's house, separated from his house by a back alley, there is an old factory building with open space. The floor height of this house is higher than Jin Muchen's current house. It is equivalent to a six-story building. It used to be a building. Woodworking and furniture factories.

But as early as the end of the 1970s, production was discontinued. Later, someone rented a car repair shop that used to operate for a period of time, but due to poor management, it finally closed down.

Since then, it has been idle, because the house is not facing the street, so not many business people are interested in this house.

There was a real estate developer who wanted to take this house, but considering that the house was too close to the house in front of Jin Muchen, if it was taken down and converted into an apartment, lighting would be a big problem, so it could not take shape.

In the end, due to various problems of one kind or another, this house has been vacant until now, which is rare in the area where land is expensive.

Jin Muchen has been paying attention to this house for a long time, and he has also asked a real estate agent before. This house now belongs to a family called Davis.

The family used to start out by wood processing and furniture production. When it was brilliant, there were several New York City councillors in the family.

But now the family has long since fallen, and the property rights of this house are now in the hands of several descendants of the family.

At that time, Jin Muchen wanted to buy this house, but he had been suffering from insufficient funds, and the demand for the house was so urgent at that time, so he just thought about it.

Now that he has money, he certainly doesn't plan to let the house go.

So before the Spring Festival, the agent of a shell company he registered in the Virgin Islands found a real estate agency and gave him the task of winning the house in the shortest possible time.

When the real estate agency heard that it was such a task, of course, they agreed quickly. After all, this house, the owners and brothers, have been trying to sell it for a long time. Unfortunately, due to the geographical location and price, it has not been sold for a long time. can make a move.

Now someone wants to buy it, isn't that easy?

So just a few days before the Spring Festival, Jin Muchen received an offer of 15 million dollars for the house from the owner and brother.

To be honest, if the flat floor area is considered, the house is bigger than his house. The floor area of ​​his house is only more than 200 square meters, while the floor area of ​​the house is more than 400 square meters. , and the floor height is also two floors higher than his. In the future, when the space is released, more usable area can be obtained.

It's just because of the **** location that this house has never been bought.

The location of this house is really embarrassing. It is surrounded by several sets of buildings facing the street. Although the floor is a little high, the lighting conditions are really poor. This is the main reason why the house has not been sold for a while.

The owners of the house wanted to sell the house when the district was on the rise a few years ago. At that time, they were arrogant and arrogant, and the asking price was not low. They had offered up to 20 million for this house. high dollar price.

But the real market gave them a hard blow. Your house is not located in front of a village or a store in the back, that is, it is not facing the street, it cannot be developed into a commercial building, the lighting is poor, and it cannot be developed into a residential building, what a fool Are you willing to spend 20 million to buy this house?

So this time when the brothers heard that someone was going to buy this suite, they were overjoyed. In the end, the brothers discussed it together for several days before they gave the price with trepidation. They were afraid that the price would be too high. Interesting buyers are scared away.

It turned out that Jin Muchen didn't take the 15 million dollars seriously. On the day he received the quotation, he called his agent back: Take it!

With such a simple word, before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, this house belongs to Jin Muchen.

To be precise, it belongs to a shell company he registered overseas, and the next job is how to renovate the house.

In Jin Muchen's idea, this house should be a multi-purpose room for their parking garage, studio, their family's reception room, warehouse, etc. in the future.

Because he was very satisfied with the designer Wei En who remodeled his house last time, Jin Muchen contacted this guy again this time. After receiving a call from him, Wei En didn't even bother to eat lunch, so he rushed over.

"Mr. Jin, how do you want to remodel this house?"

After understanding the situation~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and actually inspecting the house, this Wien asked with a flattering smile.

While Jin Muchen stood on the first floor, he waved his hand directly: "Here, all of them will be converted into a parking lot for me!"

Wei En looked so stupid, this is a whole first floor! More than 400 square meters! How many cars do you really want to park?

And this is a district, even if the location of this house is not very good, how can a square meter be worth tens of thousands of dollars?

But you actually use this house with an inch of land and a lot of money as a parking lot! ? The world of local tyrants, we really don't understand!

And looking at the stunned look of designer Wei En, Jin Muchen's heart is not to mention how cool it is, no wonder so many rich people like to be self-willed, this feel is really cool! (To be continued) WWW.GEILIWX.COM happy reading every day
