There will always be a lot of unsatisfactory things happening in this world. For example, Katie regrets that she didn't show her heart earlier than Li Jie, which led to her leaving in style now.

For example, Peter Parker felt that he had just been generous, and said that he would donate most of the money to public welfare and only keep a small part for himself.

For example, Gwen quickly said that if she could afford a luxury apartment in Midtown Manhattan if she joined Peter Parker, she would move in and live together.

Gwen, in particular, felt like she was a mouthful. Because the day after Li Jie gave the check to Peter, the pair of good friends went out to look at the house. And they called Harry Osborne.

As the chairman of the Osborne Group, Harry has been busy since the New Year. He hadn't been with two of his old friends for almost a month.

He was also a little surprised to hear that Peter had received such a large amount of royalties. After Li Jie explained the whole money clearly, Harry began to mention that Peter was happy.

And he volunteered to help Peter find a house. He knew some of the best real estate dealers in Manhattan, and they were always handing him business cards at various drinking parties, hoping that the young Chairman Harry would consider his own property when he bought his next mansion.

You must know that with the top rich people of the level of Harry Osborne and Tony Stark, if they want to buy a manor-level mansion, then they are all hundreds of millions of dollars of top spending. For example, the Osborne Manor left by Norman Sr. Osborne in the suburbs of New York City, because of the expansion of New York City, the Osborne Manor is now valued at more than $900 million, including the house with the foundation.

Tony's luxury villa on the edge of Malibu Beach is much less than Osborne Manor. But because it's located in one of the most spectacular views of the entire Malibu coastline, the home is valued at more than $500 million, including the foundation.

For these world's top richest people, spending $100 million or two on a top mansion is really not a big deal. Harry also has several overseas properties in his name, all of which were left behind by old Norman.

One is located by the sea in Spain, one in the Caribbean, and one in Greece. These are used for overseas vacations, and in fact, they only live for about ten days a year. But the annual maintenance of these mansions (not counting the Osborne estate) is nearly five million dollars.

This is a corner of the ordinary life of the top rich, and the annual home maintenance fee alone can make the responsible real estate company earn tens of millions of profits. So those real estate developers are even closer to a rich man like Harry than to see his own grandfather.

Who knew that Harry was tired of living in the old-school Osborne Manor that day, and wanted to do a major renovation, or just buy a new and younger manor mansion? That's a big order of hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars!

So when Harry let out the wind and wanted to buy a luxury apartment in Midtown Manhattan worth about 10 million dollars, with a good view, a large area, and an excellent privacy and security system. Real estate developers who wanted to be in a relationship with Haritaut were almost lining up to give away all the quality resources they could find.

Even if the house was not lived in by Harry Osborne, but was purchased for his friend. But real estate developers are not stupid, and those who can afford to buy tens of millions of mansions are also rich, how can they be lazy? More importantly, they can brush up on a wave of goodwill in front of Harry!

For these guys with old faces smiling brighter than chrysanthemums, Li Jie can only sigh: You can really do whatever you want if you have money.

For example, the apartment that the three of them are looking at together now is located in Lower Manhattan near Midtown. It is a 48-storey building. Located on the top floor of the building, the apartment is about 350 square meters in size, with seven rooms, three spacious bathrooms, a dining room and a large living room for 20 people to eat together.

Because it is the top floor, there is a huge sun terrace outside (that is, the ceiling position downstairs, because of the architectural form, the area of the top floor is smaller than the downstairs, so it is more).

The sun terrace outside also adds up to nearly 300 square meters, and has been planted with some leafy plants to form a sky garden, which just surrounds the apartment, and the shade of the trees adds some privacy and security. However, it will not be too dense to block the view of the people inside and the lighting of the house itself.

At the same time, there is a small swimming pool in the spacious part of the garden of the apartment, which is small but also has a size of 3.5 by 7 meters. In such a high-rise building, having a sky pool of this size is simply a luxury.

"The flooring is made of the finest quartzite and marble, and all the wall paints are fireproof and corrosion-resistant. And this height apartment has a very good view, and although it is not in the center of Midtown, you have a panoramic view of Manhattan!" said a 50-year-old real estate businessman.

He has thick hair that doesn't match his age at all, and it's a bit too thick to say it's too thick. It looks like a bird's nest that hasn't been well cared for. Li Jie suspects that he is also a user of Dawning Hair Growth Lotion.

Mr. Bird's Nest is the owner of a medium-sized real estate company, and although he is not worth as much as Harry Osborne, he still has a billion-dollar fortune.

Originally, Mr. Bird's Nest didn't need to go out in person to sell this kind of luxury apartment, but considering that the other party had Harry Osborne, Mr. Bird's Nest had to cancel an impromptu meeting that was going to be held today. He wants to personally brush up on a wave of presence in front of the young world's richest people.

This apartment has been fully renovated, very luxurious and timely, not just for the rich buns. The style of decoration is more youthful and designed, as long as the furniture and electrical appliances are arranged, you can move in. In fact, the house is already equipped with furniture and electrical appliances, but this is required to be purchased at an additional cost. If you don't like it, you can also let Mr. Bird's Nest pull it away, and then choose your favorite furniture and appliances.

"In fact, in addition to furniture and appliances, if you don't like the décor, you can also redecorate. Homing Real Estate can help you take care of it all, Mr. Harry. (Mr. Bird's Nest's company name)" Mr. Bird's Nest said enthusiastically.

Li Jie looked at this apartment and couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow~ It's so beautiful." He was amazed by the full-size glass façade in the apartment's living room, which looked so beautiful.

Peter stepped on the luxurious-looking quartz floor tiles with some caution, and he still couldn't believe that this was the house he was going to buy.

Wait, is it really? Parker was used to living in a small two-story wooden bungalow with Uncle Ben and Aunt May for more than ten years. Everything here was beyond his expectations.

"Do I really want to buy a house here?" asked Peter, standing outside the forty-eight-story balcony with a view of New York City outside, in disbelief.

"Why not?" Harry didn't quite understand what Peter's upset was about.

"I mean, I mean, I have a feeling that I don't really have. It's as if everything is false. Yesterday I was living in my uncle's little wooden house, and today I have entered the luxurious castle?" Peter gestured with his hand for a long time, but he could not make any gesture of what he wanted to express.

Li Jie walked over and patted Peter on the shoulder: "You think a little too much, your little money may not be able to buy this apartment." ”

"A little money, even if I don't take the follow-up money, I already have fifteen million dollars more in my bank account today! This is also called a little money?" Peter looked at Li Jie in disbelief, fifteen million was almost astronomical for Peter.

Li Jie asked Mr. Bird's Nest not far away, "Sir, what is the selling price of this room?"

"Fourteen million without property tax and purchase tax!" the bird's nest offer made Peter almost unsteady.

Harry glanced back at Mr. Bird's Nest and said, "When I asked for the price, I said that the total price of all the house formalities should be less than fifteen million. ”

Mr. Bird's Nest smiled: "Of course, what I just said is only an external offer. Mr. Osborne's friends naturally had different prices. I'll get all the formalities in place for less than 13.5 million. And furniture and electrical appliances can be given away. ”

This price is almost no money to be made for Mr. Bird's Nest, and it is purely for nothing. But is it worth it to spend a million or two million dollars on Harry's favor? at least Mr. Birdnest thinks it's worth it.

"I still think it's too unreal. Am I living in such an expensive house now?, why should I live here?" Peter felt a little uneasy.

Li Jie felt a little amused and asked, "Why can't you live here?" This is because you have created wealth with your own wisdom, so you just enjoy the life you can enjoy." ”

"I'm just, I'm just. Peter made a few starts, but he didn't know what to say.

"You just feel that your life is changing too quickly, or that the trajectory of your life has changed too much and you feel a little uncomfortable. It's like a cat with a new litter, insecure, don't you? You want to say, if you live in this house, you're no longer Spider-Man?"

Peter looked at Li Jie and Harry and nodded in silence. Harry shook his head and said to Mr. Bird's Nest not far away, "Can you give us some personal space? ”

Mr. Bird's Nest is certainly not immune to Harry's words. It is rare for a real estate developer to leave their property and leave the guests to look at the property at will.

Harry waited for Mr. Bird's Nest to leave before he said to Harry, "Are you stupid? What does having money have to do with you being Spider-Man? Tony and I don't both have much richer than you, and we're not doing something like you." ”

Peter scratched his head, as if that was the truth. But what's the difference? He couldn't tell.

"Don't you think heroes deserve to be down, right?" Li Jie said to Peter's heart at once: "It's like what happens in many stories. Heroes who uphold justice and protect everyone are always good people, and there is no good reward. Either his wife was separated because of his heroic deeds, or he became impoverished because of his heroic deeds. You don't think so, do you?"

Peter nodded a little embarrassedly, he really thought. He felt that if he lived in such a big house, then he would be free from Spider-Man's down-to-earth, good neighbor in New York City.

Li Jie shook his head at Peter: "Don't make a fuss. It's a stupid idea. Remember why I started Marvel Comics in the first place? It's not just about making money, we use real heroes to publish comics to make money, and then give a part of it back to those heroes. Let their heroic deeds no longer be about giving without returning. ”

"I have said that most of the tragedies in this world are due to apathy, and apathy is due to the fact that there is no reward for giving. People who do good deeds should live better than ordinary people, this is a normal phenomenon in this world. Li Jie said seriously to Peter.

"The media always likes to report that the poor help the poor, and the weak help the weak. Although this is very eye-catching, and can sublimate humanity, enhance the perception and nobility of morality. But we have to say that mutual aid between the poor and the weak is naturally good, but we need to call on more rich and strong people to help the poor and weak, rather than watching them simply help each other. ”

And those who are virtuous do not simply sigh about their virtue and let them continue to be poor, if they can, they can be rich. Spider-Man doesn't stop doing good deeds because he has money, does he? Spider-Man will always be Spider-Man, and he won't change because he has money or not, right?"

Yes, if you are rich, you are still Spider-Man, as long as your nature remains the same! Peter looked at this luxurious apartment, and he only had two problems to solve now.

The first is how to explain to Uncle Ben and Aunt Mei that they bought a mansion and that the nephew they had raised for more than ten years suddenly became a multimillionaire.

The second is how to convince Gwen to move into the 'new home' she wants to live in the future.

Gwen, who was discussing the new spring fashion with Lan in Li Jie's villa, suddenly shuddered. Lan thought she was cold: "Do I need to add a shawl to you?"

Gwen shook her head: "No, it wasn't cold just now, but a feeling of electricity." It's only since the last London incident that I've been like this every time Peter thinks about me. ”

Arashi knew that Peter had no secrets in front of Gwen, so she asked very gossipily, "What did he think about this time?"

Gwen grimaced: "The trouble is that this time my spider sense is calling the police, but I don't know what he's thinking. He seems to have inadvertently learned the Occlumency Technique. ”

Gwen's inner OS: Is this a cocoon?
