When the silver Jetta started again, it was Xiao Chen who sat in the driver's seat, Xiao Chen was not particular about driving, there was no mentality to protect the car, the gear was hung, a foot of floor oil, and the car soared out, the engine of the Jetta car is low-revving and high-torque, and the strength is quite strong at low speed, but the real high-speed is not very good, so the push back force is still relatively strong.

"Yike...... You're in a hurry to put out the fire, what are you doing so hard! Su Ning was taken aback by him and glared at him dissatisfied.

Xiao Chen looked at her tall chest and said with a smile: "Yes, I'm in a hurry...... Save...... Fire...... This. ”

Su Ning's face turned red all of a sudden, and she didn't follow: "Don't go to the factory now." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Chenqi said: "Then where to go?" ”

Su Ning said: "I want to call Aunt Qin for the money from last year's year-end dividends, but Aunt Qin doesn't want it, saying it's yours, let me use it as I like...... I think it's inconvenient for you to come here every time, so you want to have a house, and Aunt Qin said, just buy it, it's boring to live in a crowd, and I spent a lot of money to buy a set of villas for sale in Beijing. ”

At this time, almost all the villas in Beijing were national assets, that is, the residences of senior leaders, and the villas for sale, and they only began to try to get a little bit in 92.

There are three stages in the development of villas in Huaxia. The first stage is the era of export sales, before the financial crisis of 1992-1997, the typical characteristic is that overseas purchases are dominant; 1997-2002 is the second stage, which is still the world of investors, but the sellers are from China, they are a group of people who got rich first in China, and some people have made money in the stock market or business, so they take the villa as a long-term investment. Since both of these stages are investment markets, the attention is not very high; After 2002, villas entered the era of self-occupation, with more projects and longer product lines.

The biggest risk of villas is the expectation of investment, and many inexperienced developers do not take into account the big cost, and they think that the house is not just bricks. In fact, the investment in planning and design of villas is huge, and the time is very long. The cost of building a house is not as high as the cost of designing a house, and the cost outside of the building is much higher than the building itself.

For example, the villa that Su Ning bought under Qin Qin's decision this time has the building code of Project 002 for Export. After completion, it is called Longyuan Villa, located in Shunyi Mapo. At that time, the positioning of this batch of products was not for Chinese people to buy, but for foreigners to invest. In fact, builders also want to try whether there are Chinese people to buy, but in 1993-1994, if a house was more than 5 million, even if the rich people in Beijing had this spending power, I am afraid that the vast majority of them did not have the courage to spend like this. As for this Longyuan villa, it can almost be said to be an airborne villa, a "North American villa airborne", and the investors at that time were Americans. Except for cement and bricks, other materials are imported from the United States and numbered like building blocks, including central vacuum cleaning systems, plastic-clad solid wood windows, low-e glass and even tiles, some of which are not available in Hong Kong luxury homes. The level of domestic construction is limited, and the windows are inlaid with glass, and the space is just right according to the size.

At this time, the tariff is 220%, but foreign investment is duty-free, so many materials are imported duty-free, for example, if the imported cabinet is 100,000 yuan, it will cost at least 320,000 yuan outside. The Longyuan villa area also built a club that was relatively advanced at this time, similar to the supporting facilities of a five-star hotel. Such as Chinese and Western restaurants, cafes, indoor tennis courts, swimming pools, bowling, karaoke, and dozens of rooms, it is already a small hotel. At this time, foreigners spend their weekends in the clubhouse, and many company meetings are also included. So this villa area is, to some extent, indeed relatively high-end.

Another meaning of high-end is that the price is also high-end. Su Ning told Xiao Chen with some distress: "The final transaction price of a villa is 5.16 million. ”

Xiao Chen was suddenly a little dumbfounded, his aunt's villa in the United States, the manor in the United Kingdom, he was not interested in asking how much it was worth, but this was in Huaxia, in the era when the mystery of 10,000 yuan households had just faded, and 100,000 yuan households were still very good, spend 5 million to buy a house...... A capitalist is a capitalist.

Su Ning looked at Xiao Chen and asked carelessly, "Are you angry?" ”

Xiao Chen came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "Why am I angry, I'm just a little frightened...... Is that place comfortable? ”

Su Ning pouted: "The house is good, but it's also annoyed that there are foreigners around, every time I go back, those people always look at me strangely." ”

Xiao Chen laughed and said, "They don't know where you come from." Oh yes, now that the house is done, let's change the car at the right time. ”

Su Ning was puzzled: "The car is still very new." She was actually a little reluctant to use this car, because Xiao Chen bought it for her.

Xiao Chen shook his head and said: "It's not a matter of old and new, I'm thinking, since Tianxin Pharmaceutical's advertising has been played so much, and now it is a well-known enterprise in China, although it really began to make profits last year, but since the brand effect has come out, the era of big profits will definitely come soon, and the people you usually see at that time are people with more status and status, this car is not only for you to use, but also on behalf of Tianxin Pharmaceutical and your personal face at a certain level." ”

Su Ning sighed and said, "But now that the pharmaceutical company has not paid dividends, it is not easy for me to withdraw money financially." ”

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and pinched her face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my aunt gave me pocket money...... Enough zero, 10 million, or dollars. ”

Su Ning was stunned for a moment, and then grinned: "That's the best, although I am a small house, but a small house is also a house, whose money does not need your money?" ”

Xiao Chen looked at her smile like a flower, and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. Once upon a time, that proud girl bowed her noble head to her love. Su Ning her, if she wants to say such a thing, I'm afraid that her heart hurts even more, I don't know how many times.

Looking at Xiao Chen's gloomy face, Su Ning also quieted down, and after a while, she whispered: "Xiao Chen, you, don't think I'm so pitiful, really, I'm already very satisfied." ”

Xiao Chen didn't speak.

Su Ning suddenly laughed and said, "Besides, didn't you say it, Tianxin will soon make a lot of money, and when I have more time, I can often go to Langliu to see you." She blinked and looked at Xiao Chen: "I'm afraid that someone will be annoying and won't let people go." ”

Xiao Chen knew that Su Ning was deliberately making this appearance and wanted to make herself happier, but in fact, the sadness in her heart was probably only known to her.

He laughed, why bother with those unhappy things, when the two of them are together, they should be happy together.

The car entered Longyuan, and as soon as it arrived near the bar and café at the door, Su Ning said: "Just stop here first, you have something to drink first, and I'll go to the supermarket over there to buy something and come over." ”

Xiao Chen nodded, drove the car to the parking space next to him and pulled over. A few foreigners in the café looked at this side, pursed their lips, and looked disdainful, as if to say: Open a Jetta and come to Longyuan?

Xiao Chen glanced at Su Ning, but saw that she looked indifferent, and she didn't know if she didn't take it to heart or had long been used to it, and she didn't want to go for a while, she had moved to live, but she didn't know. She was discriminated against for driving a car here, and she didn't even know it, so she couldn't say anything.

As soon as he got out of the car, Xiao Chen asked: "Which one do you like, Mercedes-Benz S600 or BMW 760?" The reason why Xiao Chen asked this is that these two models are estimated to be the highest models that can be bought through formal channels in China now.

"I don't know, I don't know how to drive, whatever." Su Ning smiled and said, "I'll go shopping, you can go in." ”

Xiao Chen nodded: "Let's go see the S600 tomorrow." "Mercedes-Benz is elegant, BMW is sporty, Xiao Chen estimates that Su Ning is not very particular about the sports surname of the car, or Mercedes-Benz, and the Mercedes-Benz S600 in 95 seems to have begun to use the ESP electronic stability system, and the safety factor is much higher.

A yellow-haired foreigner next to him suddenly smiled and said, "Are you talking about Mercedes-Benz S600?" ”

Xiao Chen glanced at him and nodded, but Su Ning didn't have a good impression of foreigners, so she went to take care of herself.

The foreigner sneered: "Hey, man, the S600 costs $370,000, are you sure you have 3 million that you can use to buy a car?" He persuaded "kindly": "Your Chinese women are very good, 3 million?" You're really crazy, I can sleep with 10,000 Chinese women for 3 million, haha. ”

Xiao Chen's face suddenly deteriorated, and he asked coldly, "Which country are you?" ”

The foreigner said proudly: "I am from romantic France, the noblest romantic capital in the world, Paris. ”

Xiao Chen nodded: "If you give me 3 million, I don't want to sleep with a French woman even once." He looked at the Frenchman who hadn't reacted yet, and said, "If you don't take a bath, your body will stink, and if you smell it, it will be even more disgusting if you spray perfume." ”

The Frenchman reacted all at once, and his face suddenly turned red, like a rooster's comb. There was a girl laughing at the door of the café next to her.

Xiao Chen didn't bother to care about the French reaction, but looked towards the place where the laughter came from. This look was stunned for a moment.

Amazing! Xiao Chen suddenly found that Brother Cao Zhi "seems to be like a light cloud covering the moon, fluttering like the snow of the wind." "That's the kind of girl that's it!

Standing at the door was a girl in her mid-twenties, wearing a light pink long-sleeved tight T-shirt, sports camouflage trousers, and big-toed sneakers. She didn't have any jewelry on her body, and she was dressed very athleticly, but Xiao Chen saw her standing aside and smiled slightly, but she strangely felt a strange tranquility.

When the girl saw Xiao Chen looking at her, she immediately put away her smiling face, turned around and walked inside, leaving only a slender back.

Xiao Chen took a deep breath and said in his heart that this girl was too beautiful. As soon as he turned around, the Frenchman was originally blushing and wanted to find Xiao Chen's "theory", but at this moment, he was also a little stunned at the door of the café, obviously shocked by the girl's amazement.

Xiao Chen frowned in disgust and walked towards the café, but he was thinking in his heart that maybe he would be able to see the girl just now again. He had barely taken two steps forward when the Frenchman came to his senses and shouted, "Don't go! ”

Xiao Chen ignored it and continued to walk forward, the French caught up with him in three steps and two steps, grabbed Xiao Chen's shoulder, and said loudly: "You dare to insult my motherland, I want you to apologize to me!" ”

This sentence was said so loudly that many people turned their heads to look at it, but there were many foreigners here, and these foreigners did not have one of the greatest vices of the Chinese people, which was to watch this problem. Although he cast curious eyes from afar, he did not come around.

Xiao Chen stood still and turned around.

"Take your hand away."

The Frenchman originally wanted to shout something, but he was suddenly stared at by Xiao Chen's gaze, and somehow, his heart was empty, so he let go of his hand, he felt faceless, but still said: "I don't want to fight with you, I want you to apologize to me." ”

Xiao Chen looked at him: "Why should I apologize to you?" ”

"You have insulted France, you must apologize to me!" The French insisted.

"What did I say to insult France?" Xiao Chen asked, "You told me about it." ”

The Frenchman's voice was so loud that it finally caught the attention of the people around him, not only did many people who passed by stop to watch the play, but the people in the café also looked through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and the door of the café was open, so they could be heard talking outside. In a corner, a pale pink figure flashed, but it was the girl who was looking over from behind the glass window with a cup of coffee.

The Frenchman thought he was justified and said loudly in fairly good Chinese: "Just now you said that I gave you 3 million, and you are not willing to sleep with a French woman even once, isn't this an insult to France?!" ”

When the people next to him heard this, their faces were different, some were surprised, some were funny, and some were inexplicable.

"Oh...... You say this. Xiao Chen looked suddenly enlightened: "Okay, since you are so dissatisfied with this sentence and have raised it to the height of French national dignity, for the sake of the traditional friendship between the Chinese and French peoples, I will retract this sentence just now." ”

The Frenchman's face was a little better, and he just wanted to emphasize again, "You have to apologize to me", but he heard Xiao Chen continue: "Then let's do it, out of friendship between China and France and my personal respect for France, I will change the sentence just now...... If you give me 3,000,000,000, I will have to reluctantly be willing to sleep with a French woman even once—but Mr. France, you should prepare a big bed and allow me to do nothing but sleep all night. ”

As soon as Xiao Chen's words were finished, the surroundings were quiet for two seconds, and then burst into laughter. There was a lot of laughter in the café at once. The girl in the light pink T-shirt couldn't hold her coffee cup steadily, covered her mouth and giggled, and then smiled at a man in his thirties sitting across from her, "Big brother, this person is so bad." ”

The man she called the eldest brother had bronze skin, the contours of his face were like a knife, and his face was extremely resolute, but when he heard this, he nodded: "Good damage." ”

The girl's beautiful black jewel-like eyes looked at Xiao Chen, her big eyes blinked, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Her eldest brother suddenly said: "These men outside, don't be too curious about them, it's better to care less." ”

The girl was dissatisfied: "What's the matter, I don't know him, I'm just strange that the Frenchman is so tall, this man is not afraid of provoking him at all, what if he is beaten?" ”

Her eldest brother said expressionlessly: "If this person is beaten, I will help him." ”

The girl was speechless for a while, touched her forehead weakly, and said, "Big brother, does he know that you will help him?" ”

This was originally a rhetorical question that didn't need to be answered, but her eldest brother replied seriously: "I don't know." ”

The girl was actually used to her eldest brother's way of speaking, and asked disappreciatively: "That's it, he's still very bold." ”

But the girl's eldest brother stopped talking.

The girl looked at Xiao Chen again, and the girl's brother frowned, stood up and said, "Let's go back." ”

The girl said weakly: "Big brother, I won't fall in love with a man when I see him on the road casually, and then let my father can't explain, ok?" ”

Her eldest brother's face relaxed slightly, and he sat down: "That's good." ”

The girl was speechless, sighed depressedly, and said, "A person like you can find a lover like my sister-in-law, I'm really convinced." ”

Her eldest brother nodded, "Yes." ”

The girl flipped a beautiful sanitary ball for him, became depressed, and said quietly: "That person is really as good as you say?" ”

"The second said yes." Her eldest brother's meaning is obvious, other words are unreliable, but the words of "second" are reliable.

The girl sighed faintly, stood up, and said, "Go back." ”

Her eldest brother nodded and said, "Okay, you go first, I'll wait a minute." ”

"What else are you doing?" The girl looked at her eldest brother's teacup strangely, it had long been empty, and she specialized in drinking tea in a pure Western-style café, the eldest brother was really a talent.

"I'll wait for him." Her eldest brother glanced at Xiao Chen.

The girl was a little helpless, but nodded: "This person is okay, he shouldn't suffer the loss of the French, then you are here, I will go first." ”

"Hmm."

The Frenchman outside had already become furious just now, pulling Xiao Chen to prevent him from leaving, and asking Xiao Chen to apologize to him, but where was Xiao Chen's opponent when he talked about eloquence? After a few words, he almost died of anger on his back, and finally couldn't help but slap it down, and wanted to slap Xiao Chen over. This Frenchman is about 1.9 meters tall, and he is estimated to be the kind that he often exercises in the gym, and his muscles are very developed, although he is not as good as Swarzenegger, but he is much stronger than Xiao Chen, and Xiao Chen suddenly looked very "thin" in front of him.

The girl's eldest brother didn't know when he had already walked to the door of the café, and as soon as the Frenchman raised his hand, he was ready to make a move. But Xiao Chen stepped back at the moment when the Frenchman raised his hand and slapped it, and hooked his right foot diagonally, just hooking the Frenchman's left ankle.

Although the French have developed muscles, his balance is not very good, and he was unexpectedly hooked by Xiao Chen, and he immediately stood unsteadily, and fell down like a dog eating.

Xiao Chen smiled and retreated, but he didn't say anything cool, just turned around casually, and was about to enter the café.

The girl's eldest brother suddenly glanced at Xiao Chen with a serious face.

When Xiao Chen walked past him, he suddenly said, "Little brother is so fast. Then Xiao Chen was stunned and left on his own.
