Chapter 0105 Buying a House for Your Family

Unbeknownst to Marcus Rashford and Catherine Gloria, they had become the target of a big news campaign by The Sun's paparazzi, so they found a random restaurant for a bite to eat and then drove straight to Manchester.

The journey from London to Manchester is just over 300 kilometres, and the whole journey is high-speed, which is a three- or four-hour drive.

The pair were riding in a Jaguar-XJ, which was purchased for the £100,000 signing fee Rashford received after the last initialling agreement with Manchester United.

The car was the first thing Catherine Gloria did for Marcus after she became Rashford's personal assistant.

At that time, Rashford asked her to buy him a means of transportation, but he didn't expect Catherine Gloria to bring him such a luxury car.

It was also at this time that Rashford realised that buying a car in the UK was completely different from his previous life at home. Who made British cars so cheap? The latest Jaguar XJL limited edition is only 100,000 pounds, BMW X6M is even only 80,000 pounds, and Range Rover limited edition is also only 100,000 pounds.

………………

Marcus Rashford and the others set out from London at about 12 o'clock in the afternoon, and it was only 3:30 p.m. when they arrived at the house Rashford had rented on the outskirts of Manchester.

Marcus Rashford returned to his room and began to complete his mid-week homework assignments, while Katherine Gloria was sent to the real estate market.

It's not that Rashford is going to buy a house for himself, it's that he plans to buy a house for his family.

Rashford's parents are not in a good financial situation, his mother is unemployed, and his father is just an ordinary coach of a small football club, and his salary is barely enough to support the family, so so far, his parents and two older brothers have been living in a rented house.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that the housing prices in the UK are too expensive, in the previous life, Marcus, who was born in a poor family, has always complained that the domestic house is sky-high, but after being reborn and coming to the UK, Rashford found that the high housing price is not only a domestic patent, but also a lot abroad.

As one of the largest cities in the UK, housing prices in Manchester are naturally not cheap. Manchester house prices were quiet after the 2008 financial crisis, but they have been making up for them since 2014 and have risen ferociously in recent years. According to the latest UK property investment report, Manchester house prices also rose by 6.7% in 2016, ranking second in the UK.

As it stands, a two-bedroom in Manchester is priced at around £230,000 and a one-bedroom is around £150,000.

Rashford remembers that the first thing he did after getting his first big contract at Manchester United in his previous life was to buy a house for his family to live in for £800,000. And now this thought also flashed through his mind from time to time, which he must have left behind after fusing Rashford's memories.

Although Rashford has been hiding from his family during this time, he is not averse to spending money to buy a house for them to live in.

Either way, they're blood relatives of their current body. These relatives of his have no great ability, and if they want to buy a house in Manchester through their own efforts, there is basically no possibility, and he has this responsibility and obligation to help them.

However, Rashford himself did not have the time to do it himself, so he simply left it to Catherine Gloria, who, in his opinion, generally had an advantage in the matter of bargaining, especially a beautiful woman like Catherine Gloria.

As for the budget for the house to buy, Rashford only gave an approximate amount, that is, it is best not to exceed 800,000 pounds, after all, the total amount of money in his hands is now 1 million pounds, and he has to leave some mobile funds. But it must be enough for their family to live, and preferably the room should be rich, in case one day they want to go back and live for a while?

………………

Catherine Gloria was indeed very capable, and she drove back just after dinner time and told Rashford that the house had been bought, and that it was located in Salford, close to the Manchester canal, in a beautiful and very pleasant place to live. It's about twenty miles from where Rashford now lives.

According to Catherine Gloria, the new house has six bedrooms, as well as luxurious bathrooms as well as a sauna. And it cost about £700,000 to buy this house.

Rashford was very pleased with the house that Catherine Gloria had bought. He could see that this house was actually similar to the house that Rashford bought for his family in his previous life, and the reason why the price was cheaper may be related to Catherine's bargaining skills and location.

Because she had to get up early tomorrow to go to school, and Katherine had other work arrangements tomorrow, Rashford hesitated and asked Catherine to find a courier to give her mother Melanie the relevant purchase documents and keys to the property.

In order to surprise his mother, Rashford did not call to report first, and planned to wait until tomorrow when they received the courier, and then explain it to them.

………………

After dealing with these things, Rashford and Catherine had dinner at home, and Catherine cooked it, and she, her personal assistant, was not only good at handling business matters, but also cooking.

Then, Rashford studied for a while, then did some activities in the yard to train his ball sense, and then washed up and went to bed.

And when Rashford fell into a sweet sleep, hundreds of kilometers away in London, in the headquarters of The Sun, paparazzi reporter Kaye was working overtime overnight, rushing to catch up with the manuscript.

He plans to make his big news in the Sun's tomorrow's edition.

The editor-in-chief of The Sun was also very satisfied with the news that Kaye had obtained, and felt that once the news appeared in the newspaper, it would definitely cause a sensation. After all, Rashford is the hottest new star in British football recently, and all reports about him will make the British people pay close attention, let alone reports about his feelings.

The Sun was unconcerned about the troubles the story might have caused Rashford, from top to bottom. They're just a tabloid, and the purpose of reporting is always to attract attention, and they don't think about the negative impact that might be there.

To put it simply, this is an unruly tabloid, and nine times out of ten the sensational news in English football, especially negative news, they broke first.
