Chapter 59: Buying a House and Security (Asking for Recommendation Votes)

Now that the Lord of Pei finally has enough money in his hands, the first thing he needs to do is to contact the real estate agent immediately.

So she took a few days off with her mentor, Dr. Duma, and began to follow the real estate agent to Silicon Valley every day to see buildings, just to find a place for her newly established "Pell Biotechnology Company".

Combined with the existing funds, and considering the future security and anti-theft problems, she first ruled out the plan of renting the venue, and directly asked the broker to take her to see the properties listed for resale.

After following the real estate agent to see several properties in a row, the lord finally took a fancy to a six-story building with an underground garage. The entire building is made of reinforced concrete, with a saleable area of 4,800 square meters excluding the underground garage, and a listing price of $60 million.

The real estate agent told SΓΉ Pepe that the property had been listed for almost a year, and the original price was 64 million US dollars, but the powerful buyers did not look down on it, thinking that the building was not large in size, had too few floors, and the appearance was not fashionable and beautiful enough, and the buyers who were able to see it at that time did not have enough money to hope to lower the price, and the owners were reluctant to reduce the price at that time. After nearly half a year, the owner who has been unable to sell the building finally took the initiative to drop 1 million, but still has not been sold, and the listing price has just been lowered to 60 million US dollars.

The real estate agent smiled and told Pepe that the owner couldn't wait until now, and was eager to get rid of it, so she was lucky at this time, the listing price of 60 million US dollars could still take the opportunity to suppress the price, at least the price of 1 million.

The reason why Pepe is interested in this property is because it is solid enough, and for the existing staffing of the current "Pell Biotechnology Company", the area is just right, it doesn't matter if it is beautiful or not, she wishes that the more low-key the better. As soon as she heard that she could still lower the price, she asked the real estate agent to make an appointment with the owner to negotiate the price in person.

Although Pepe's money from selling paintings plus the registered capital of 10 million yuan currently has a total of nearly 158 million US dollars in hand, in addition to buying a house, these funds also need to consider the money for buying various scientific research equipment and security and anti-theft facilities, plus personnel salaries and research investment.

Moreover, she also has the great killer weapon of divine sense! The next hint is that letting the owner take the initiative to reduce the price is just a glance for her.

So, on the day of the appointment with the owner, Pepe only "chatted" with the owner for a few minutes, and the owner took the initiative to reduce the price to 50 million US dollars, and under the surprised eyes of the real estate agent, the two parties signed a property rights transaction contract.

The company site was finally completed, and the next step was to renovate and redesign the interior of the building, and of course, to configure various security and anti-theft equipment.

Pepe felt that the interior design of the future "Pell Biotech" must be designed and renovated on the basis of security and anti-theft facilities, so she asked the real estate agent if there was a well-known security design company to recommend.

The real estate agent gave Pepe a business card of "Golden Shield Security Company". He told SΓΉ Pepe that the security company is well-known in the industry, and that many well-known companies such as Google and Apple have commissioned the company to design and install security and anti-theft facilities for their office buildings. This "Golden Shield Security Company" also has its own decoration engineering team, which is a comprehensive security company integrating design, decoration, transformation, anti-theft, and providing one-stop services such as security personnel.

Pepe sounded good, and after saying goodbye to the real estate agent, he immediately picked up his mobile phone and contacted the "Golden Shield Security Company".

The next day, the company sent their security professionals to inspect Pepe's newly purchased office building, and after the entire building was surveyed, the security minister Jason Fred asked Pepe if he had any other special requirements for building security and burglar prevention.

Pepe remembered the fingerprint password and pupil membrane password she saw at Sotheby's auction house, and felt that these security and anti-theft equipment were very good, and wanted to install such a set of equipment for her company, and the company's personnel would have to check the fingerprint and pupil membrane when entering and leaving the building in the future.

Pepe told Fred about this idea, and Fred replied to Pepe with a stern face, even if these equipment are installed, there are still many ways for professional thieves to enter, such as ventilation pipes, drainage pipes, building windows, etc., and there are still many loopholes in this building that can be drilled.

Pepe was shocked after hearing this, and hurriedly consulted him for a solution, and her request was to be sure to achieve a foolproof security and anti-theft design.

Fred told Pepe that there is no absolute foolproof, only relative security. If you want to achieve relative security, you must first reinforce a layer of professional anti-theft steel plate on the internal wall of the entire building, including the top of the floor and the ground on the first floor; The windows should also be remodeled, either all sealed with reinforced concrete, or replaced with high-strength explosion-proof glass; Infrared anti-theft equipment and human body sensing equipment should be installed in the internal ventilation pipes and other pipes; Personnel can use the fingerprint and pupil membrane identification equipment required by Pepe when entering and exiting, and only one set is installed at the entrance at all, and it must be installed at all important checkpoints and office doors.

However, Fred said that the cost of setting up the entire equipment, plus his company's design and construction costs, all adds up to about $6 million, and the entire renovation process takes two to three weeks.

After hearing this, the county lord used that old trick again and began to use her divine sense to bargain.

So Fred was quickly dealt with, and Pepe was able to achieve the desired security and anti-theft effect for only $4.5 million.

――――――――――――

After Fred said goodbye to Pepe, he sat in his car, and was not busy inserting the car keys, but took out the contract book that had just been signed from his briefcase, and looked at the figure of four and a half million on it with a frowning face.

Fred hammered his head, blaming himself for being too soft-hearted, and was called Uncle Fred a few times by such a little girl, so he impulsively signed such a contract! Hey~ Fortunately, he is one of the bosses of the company, and he still has the right to call the shots in this contract.

After staring at the numbers on the contract for a few more minutes, Fred smiled wryly, put the contract book in his briefcase, inserted the key and started the car.

Small Theatre:

The county lord's mother put her hands on her waist, kicked her eyes and said, "Hurry up and vote for the recommendation!" Don't force me to use my divine sense against you! ”
