Chapter 95: Crazy House Sweeper
Los Angeles is the second largest city in the United States, and many people think it should be full of tall buildings. But in fact, there are not many high-rise buildings in Los Angeles, and the larger area is small buildings. There are many reasons here. Some say that Los Angeles is in an earthquake zone and is not suitable for building high-rise buildings; Some people say that Americans don't like high-rise buildings in the first place, but Ji Xin seems to be because Los Angeles has land, so they naturally build small buildings.
Indeed, Los Angeles is a huge city, with the surrounding districts and counties. If you drive at 100 kilometers per hour, it will take an hour to go from east to west and an hour to go from north to south. It is estimated that it is as large as Beijing and Tianjin.
Different from domestic cities, domestic cities are basically circular structures, **, People's Square is the center, with this as the center of the circle to draw a circle, the closer to the center of the circle, the better, the more convenient life, the more popular; The further out you go, the more you go to the countryside. And Los Angeles is more of a blocky structure. Each zone is positioned differently, and the good and bad zones are staggered. Therefore, when it comes to housing prices, it cannot be generalized.
For Li Mingyu, who is not bad for money and wants to show himself, there are only some good areas that can accept, such as Hollywood, such as Beverly, such as the hilltop mansion in San Gabriel Mountain, and the house price is millions at every turn, and it is not uncommon to see millions and tens of millions.
Tony, who is good at observing words and feelings, does not care about the pickiness of fat people at all, but more enthusiastically shows the treasure house type, which is usually used as a killer feature, in other words, only high rollers can see it. Of course, seeing the fat man's calm face, followed by the white beauty Kate, and the dog-legged Ji Xin who specially carried a bag behind him, Tony felt that he must not miss the opportunity to slaughter the fat sheep.
The quality of the house at the bottom of the box is obviously very good, but the fat man is considered by himself, first of all, he can't be too close to the city, there are too many paparazzi, and the right of a rich man still needs to be guaranteed. So ruled out, the only option is Santamonica by the sea, looking at the picture, Kate also thought it was very good, so everyone set off again, and looked at the house on the spot.
A group of people are not very old, even if Kate says that she wants to come to check it, she actually has no clue. It is worth mentioning that many houses in the United States are decades, or even hundreds of years. The houses in the United States that we look at in our photos are just like paintings, but in fact, they are not that beautiful in reality, and they are very old when they walk in, so they have to pay additional decoration costs and time after buying, which is unacceptable for a few people who can move in on the same day.
However, Tony, who is professional and caring, has long thought of this, and contacted the administrator and lawyer to wait when he was in the car, ensuring that he could get the official information and keys anytime and anywhere. They even have time to hire a housekeeping company to change the water in the swimming pool, so when visiting the mansion, the outer obstacles have been cleared, and it is difficult to say that it is bad even with Ji Xin's eyes.
"Mr. Li, consider your request. Now presented with this single-family villa only a year after its completion, you may be its first owner. This Italian-style immaculate villa home offers ocean views, lush landscaping dominates the courtyard, fresh lawns, gorgeous secret garden, open plan living room, signature gourmet kitchen, covered patio fireplace and entertainment center. There are 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. The downstairs bedroom can also be used as an office or guest bedroom. The second floor features three bedrooms, a media room and an elegant master suite with bathroom and balcony with sea views. There is a spacious three-car garage with enough space for your car to rest. Tony introduced and did not forget to give a small handful of guests.
Ji Xin's impression of the big city of the United States is that crime and prosperity coexist, and he is now also concerned about the aspect of safety, "How is the security environment here?" I mean case rates and other things that disturb life that need to be considered. ”
Tony looked at this oriental man who had been silent in surprise, he thought that Ji Xin was an attendant, how could he interject privately. But since the employer didn't complain, he was happy to share some information: "It's one of the wealthiest communities in the United States." Household incomes are high in California and across the United States, where more than 25 percent of households earn $200,000."
After a pause, he broke another news that "even attracted a lot of celebrities to settle down with this, such as Oscar Best Actor Humphrey Bogart, Hollywood star John Wayne, NBA basketball star Kobe Bryant, maybe you can talk at the community dinner"
"Is this true?" Kate reacted quite quickly this time, but unfortunately the focus was obviously wrong. However, she is very accurate in her positioning, and she does not interfere with the fat man's decision, but just stares at someone with big watery eyes. This made Ji Xin a little helpless, and patted his forehead, he knew that it was difficult for a comrade with a weak revolutionary will like a fat man to refuse to win over and corrode.
Sure enough, the fat man's throat moved, this girl definitely has the strength of the Oscar actress at this time, and the various meanings under the secret autumn wave are only clear to the parties themselves. As for the fat man's answer, it was very simple: "Buy!" ”
Tony and the lawyer were busy discussing the price with the management to see if they could lower it, after all, the listing price has some moisture, and the real estate economy is not only knowledgeable, but also another important role. So Ji Xin was stunned and watched the offer of 4 million US dollars drop all the way to 3.08 million, it seems that foreigners also know that bargaining is good for physical and mental health, and the two sides come and go, but they are in a good mood.
Then it is to pay the bill in full, and the style of not procrastinating makes the management another sycophant, promising to take a free break in the subtleties, after all, no matter how professional the designer is, it is impossible to be exactly the same as the dream house in the owner's heart. So the fat man asked Kate to help with the selection, including Christmas styles, and the workload was not small.
"Old Ji, what does it mean to have a bitter face? Not good here? Seeing that everyone else was busy in the living room, Li Mingyu took the opportunity to come to Ji Xin and asked in a whisper.
"Huh?" Ji Xin didn't expect that the fat man was not fascinated by beauty, but this was much better for the next topic: "What do you think of Kate?" I mean as your girlfriend or further? ”
Li Mingyu stared at Ji Xin for a while before hitting this guy with his shoulder, "I know what you mean, don't worry." The beauty trick is useless to me, I have experienced it in the big scenes in China, and now this situation is drizzling. ”
Ji Xin subconsciously glanced at Kate, who was full of motivation not far away, the girl may be fantasizing about the beautiful moment of becoming the hostess at this time, and lowered her voice, "You don't like her?" Or is it just ......"
"Originally, it was a little exciting, especially in the showroom, when she tried to sell cars, it was really moving" The fat man blinked, "but have you noticed, her desire for fame is very strong, even after hearing that there are big stars living next to her." Such a person may be very successful in his career, but neither being a wife nor a girlfriend is what I want. ”
