Chapter 659: The Home of the Sergei Siblings
"Then drive the biggest, the best! Let the Americans on the other side of the lake run over to play! In addition to money, will there be policy restrictions?" Hong Tao felt that for the entertainment industry, this was an unexplored treasure land, and of course, he was not very clear about the laws here.
"I really can't answer this question right away, you may not know that there are so many laws here that even lawyers can't grasp them all. Well, in the next two days, I'll ask Ratz to find two lawyers who are more knowledgeable in this area, and let's talk about it together and come to a conclusion. Then I'll talk to my fellow villagers to see what they mean, and finally come up with an exact investment amount and investment model, if you're not busy, you can go with me to participate, what do you think?" Sergey is very meticulous, he will never agree to things that he is not sure of, although Hong Tao himself likes to brag, but he likes to work with people who don't like to brag.
"Okay, there shouldn't be anything going on in the next few days before I start school, you can arrange it. Hong Tao pondered, he didn't want to participate in this kind of meeting, but it was related to his investment, and he was very curious about what the Russian gangs were like, whether they were all big men like in the movie, and they were still holding automatic weapons in their hands, so he really wanted to see it.
Hong Tao's character, at best, is adventurous, but at worst, it is a fluke that is too strict. There are some things that he knows are not safe and should not go, but because of curiosity, he still can't help but do them and see them. This thing has nothing to do with age, and when you are older, you can only be slightly restrained. But the kind of habitual thinking in his bones can't be erased for a lifetime. At the critical moment, it immediately appeared in its original form.
At this time, the vehicle turned into a boulevard, and by the light. Hong Tao saw a church-like tower-like building on the left, and the street sign said that it should be a seminary when translated. On the right are small independent western-style buildings, built some distance from the road, with a lawn in front of the house, and some trees or shrubs will be planted as a partition from the neighbors. At this time, most of the houses are lit up, but the streets are still deserted, and there is no one in sight.
"We're home...... The white house on the left is Nina's home. The blue one on the right is my house. Sergey followed the car in front of him onto the ramp and parked in front of the small white building on the left.
The architectural style of these two small buildings is basically the same, in fact, the small buildings in this area are similar. Two-storey, staggered spires, pale yellow exterior walls, slightly deeper roof tiles, many windows and very large windows, no anti-theft iron net, very transparent. The ground floor usually has a doorway and a roller shutter door for the garage, half of which is a lawn and half of which is a driveway paved with cement bricks.
"How much did you spend on this house?" Hong Tao always has a soft spot for houses. Especially price-sensitive.
"Nina bought it early, almost 120,000 Canadian dollars, and my one is more expensive, 140,000 Canadian dollars. If you can pay it all at once, it can be cheaper. It's called Bayviewwoods, and the road to the north is Steelesave. It's not really downtown Toronto anymore. It should be said the Greater Toronto Area, well. Here......" Sergey and Hong Tao got out of the car, ignoring the people in front. Instead, he stood by the car and talked about the house.
"Oh, it's North York, help me find out if there's any house for sale, I'm going to buy one too. Hong Tao took the map and asked Sergei to point to it to roughly know the location, this area is between Highway 401 and Highway 407, also called Toronto North, but now there is no Highway 407 on the map, it has not been built.
"Then you might as well go to Bridlepath or Rosedale to choose, there has been an economic crisis here in the past two years, and many rich people are selling their properties, so it should be better for you to live there. Sergey was like a real estate agent who began to recommend to Hong Tao the inventory in his hands.
"Then why don't you go over there and buy it?" Hong Tao was very vigilant.
"The price over there is almost twice as high, a detached house like this has to start at least 200,000 Canadian dollars, you are rich, I am poor, I want to live there, but I can't help it!" Sergei shrugged his shoulders and made a very helpless expression.
"Hey, are you two going to stand in the snow and talk for the night?" Nina shouted from the door.
"Let's talk about buying a house, I didn't close my eyes on the plane, so let's sleep for a while. Only then did Hong Tao realize that it was still snowing heavily, so he quickly shook the map and followed Sergei into Nina's house.
Hong Tao and Sergei chatted a lot along the way, and the three ladies in the car in front were not idle, after Hong Tao and Sergei entered the house, they saw Tan Jing helping Su Miaomiao carry their luggage upstairs, it seems that they are getting along well, and they are already arranging accommodation. And Su Miaomiao was not as dazed and helpless as in the airport, she followed behind Tan Jing with her two big backpacks, walked halfway and waved at Hong Tao downstairs.
"Well, it looks like your room is gone, so come with me, I'll have Ratz and me there. "Sergei probably knows Nina's family better.
"Why don't I go over and live, you sleep in my room, and let Nina ...... with the child" Kuroko still retains Chinese hospitality, and would rather move out by himself than be embarrassed to let Hong Tao go.
"Come on, let's not be polite, I'm really a little sleepy, let's go to Sergei's house to sleep, it's next to it anyway, let's talk when I wake up, let's go." Hong Tao doesn't care where he sleeps, his requirements for food and sleep are very low, it's OK to be able to eat and sleep warmly, even if he is given a tent, as long as it's not cold, he has no opinion.
Unlike Nina's warm room layout, Sergei's room is very neat and tidy, no, it should be said that it is simple, there are very few bits and pieces, it seems very empty, a bit of a military camp, it seems that the living habits he has developed for many years cannot be changed for a while. Hong Tao is actually more accustomed to this kind of environment, his mother has a habit of cleanliness, and he has inherited some of it, mainly in the requirements for the placement of things. Whenever he looks at useless things, he wants to throw them out, if it is useful again in a few days, he will buy it again, just this problem, he has been counted countless times by his wife in his previous life, but he still can't change it.
It may be that he was really tired from the exhaustion of the journey, Hong Tao didn't even have time to pay attention to the color of the pillow, and fell asleep almost at the same time as he got into the quilt. He slept soundly this night, and if it weren't for the distending of his lower abdomen, he wouldn't have woken up. After coming out of the bathroom, Hong Tao felt that the sky outside seemed to be bright, and when he opened the curtains, he saw that it was really bright, and the snow had stopped, leaving only a thick bundle of snow on the roof of the car parked downstairs.
Stimulated by the bright light outside the window, coupled with the white roofs and white woods, Hong Tao couldn't help but shiver, and the little sleepiness that was already small disappeared. Simply, he didn't sleep anymore, took out his underwear from his bag, went back to the bathroom and took a hot shower, and then picked up his watch while getting dressed.
"! It's just six o'clock, I can't sleep all day, my biological clock is out of order......" The time displayed on the watch surprised Hong Tao, but the calendar clearly told him that he had only slept one night.
The hallway was quiet, the doors of the other three rooms were closed, and there was no one in the living room downstairs. Hong Tao pondered, he couldn't sit on the sofa and wait, and he was a little hungry, it is estimated that Nina and they didn't get up at this time, so let's go out and walk around by yourself, see if there is a restaurant or something you can buy and eat early, and walk around in this new environment by the way.
"Shhh...... It's amazing!" As soon as the door opened, Hong Tao felt the urge to turn his head back. Really Nima is cold, as the saying goes, it is cold after snow, it is indeed very cold, the most unfortunate thing is that there is still a small wind, whether it is the northwest wind and the flood can not be distinguished, the streets here are not all horizontal and vertical.
Along the snow-covered streets, Hong Tao began to walk to the right with a shallow foot, and the streets in the early morning were the same as last night. If it weren't for the fact that a snowplow was moving slowly not far away, Hong Tao could even imagine a post-apocalyptic scene, maybe a zombie would come out of a house.
"If there were zombies, would I run? Or would I try to subdue them? Are zombies afraid of judo? Supposedly going to get a headshot or break a neck...... It can't be bitten or scratched by it yet...... This Nima is a bit difficult!" While moving forward in the snow, Hong Tao entered the fantasy mode, and also analyzed his strengths and weaknesses in depth.
"Hi...... Yes...... Thump...... Oops...... "Suddenly, Hong Tao was attacked by a zombie! A pair of furry hands covered his eyes, and he was still a female zombie listening to the sound. Out of instinctive reaction and a huge sense of fear, Hong Tao braked violently at his feet, retreated half a step back while shrinking his head, and then bent over, pulled his hand, sent his hips, and kicked his legs...... A figure was thrown off Hong Tao's shoulder, and a scream was made in mid-air.
At this time, Hong Tao woke up from the apocalyptic fantasy, and at the same time he also realized that the other party was probably not a zombie, but a human! But now it is too late to understand, the movements are old, and it is absolutely impossible to stop, and the only thing that can make up for it is to throw this person in another place. Instead of throwing it on the trunk in front of it, he changed direction a little and threw it at the big snowdrift next to it, praying that there was nothing else buried in the snowdrift, otherwise the man's waist and legs would be enough.
