Chapter 89: Hello Kitty
Chapter 89: Hello Kitty
"Mr. Lin, here are the documents you requested."
It was past 11 p.m. when Xue Qingxiang handed over the information about Zijinyuan and Shengyuan communities to Lin Baoyi.
Although collecting these materials late at night took considerable effort, Xue Qingxiang understood that Lin Baoyi had placed him in Jiangcheng City for this very purpose.
Fortunately, he was usually quite diligent, and he had at least some basic materials for all the new and used properties in Jiangcheng City, so he managed to get it done.
Xue Qingxiang asked curiously, "President Lin, why are you suddenly interested in Zijinyuan? And this Shengyuan community is resettlement housing and affordable housing, so it can't be traded on the market in the short term."
Lin Baoyi didn't answer him. Instead, while flipping through the documents, he asked in return, "Xiao Xue, if you were to choose the next project, which one would you pick?"
Xue Qingxiang was taken aback by the question at first, then casually replied, "Qiuzhi New Village or Zixiu Garden."
"Tell me your reasons," Lin Baoyi pressed.
Xue Qingxiang replied, "When it comes to houses, the first thing to consider is the location, the second is the school district, and only then do we consider transportation and other amenities."
"Qiuzhi New Village is within the school district of Subai Elementary School, which is ranked among the top five in the province. It is also close to Subai Lake. Apart from the fact that the buildings are a bit old and the prices are a bit high, there are no downsides."
"Zixiuyuan is a school district property for Xuejun School, the top-ranked nine-year integrated school in the province! It's close to the city center, and the transportation and living facilities are already very mature."
After saying that, Xue Qingxiang was somewhat looking forward to Lin Baoyi's reaction.
After all, he had worked in Jiangcheng for so long, doing this kind of work, so he was very confident about choosing a house.
However, Lin Baoyi shook his head: "These are all second-hand houses, right?"
"That's right~" Xue Qingxiang nodded.
Lin Baoyi glanced at him with disappointment: "There are too many variables in the second-hand housing market. When we invest, we need to do it in large quantities, with high efficiency and high quality."
"With each secondhand apartment having its own price, how are you going to deal with so many landlords one by one? And then there's the apartment layout, the location…"
"This isn't like before, where you could just dabble in small-scale operations with ten or eight sets; it's a large-scale, systematic investment!"
"I really don't know what you've been busy with in Jiangcheng these past two years..."
His words made Xue Qingxiang blush with embarrassment.
At this moment, Lin Baoyi, while looking at the information on Zijinyuan, suddenly asked, "Are Zixiuyuan and Zijinyuan developed by the same developer?"
"Yes, and there's Zixinyuan next door. Oh, I was just about to say that Zixinyuan is also nice; it's in the school district for Xuejun Middle School, but it's also a second-hand property..."
Xue Qingxiang hesitated before answering, afraid of being scolded again.
However, Lin Baoyi did not speak again, but seriously considered the possibility that Chen Yuanzhou had mentioned tonight.
He then opened his computer to check the map and found that Zixiuyuan and Zixinyuan were only separated from Xuejun School by a wall. Compared to when they were built, there were many unclear and complicated relationships between the developer and the school.
Now, a school has been built across the street from the Zijinyuan residential area. It was built by the developer of Zijinyuan, but there is no news yet about what kind of school it is.
Based on general circumstances, this school campus should be a supporting project of the developer, and only ordinary public schools will be located there.
But then another powerful residential community, Shengyuan, suddenly appeared nearby. Who knows, the situation Chen Yuanzhou described might actually come to pass?
Shall we take a gamble?
Lin Baoyi fell into deep thought!
If you lose the bet, you certainly won't lose money, but if the return is meager, the real estate speculation group you've built up over the years will probably be gone, or worse, it might just fall apart.
But if he can win this gamble, then there will be no more obstacles to raising funds or attracting partners. He will naturally become the top player among the several real estate speculation groups in Shanghai!
Lin Baoyi thought to himself, his eyes flickering.
Besides making money, his reason for forming the real estate speculation group was, of course, to expand his network and pave the way for the development of his own company.
After all, the entry barrier is there. Anyone who joins the real estate speculation group is a prominent and wealthy figure in Shanghai. Once they make money with you and establish good relationships, the benefits to other businesses are self-evident.
Take Zheng Hong, for example. If he makes a fortune by cooperating with Zheng Hong in real estate speculation, their relationship will naturally become even closer.
This is Lin Baoyi's core objective!
After all, real estate speculation is subject to change; it's like a rainy day followed by a sunny one, and you can't speculate on real estate forever.
The key is connections!
These days, connections equal money!
However, Chen Yuanzhou was only speculating; would it really become a reality?
Lin Baoyi hesitated to make a decision...
……
When Chen Yuanzhou got home and changed into slippers, he found a pair of high heels in the entryway…
Just as she said, Wu Fangzhi was indeed waiting for her at home!
I glanced around the room and saw that it had been cleaned spotlessly. There was a plate of fruit on the coffee table and several brand-new shirts and suits on the sofa.
A warm feeling welled up in Chen Yuanzhou's heart. He tiptoed into the bedroom, only to find that Wu Fangzhi was already asleep.
Perhaps she was used to living alone. Her slender, fair legs were wrapped around a blanket, and she was holding a pillow in her arms. She was curled up with her back to the door, sleeping soundly.
However, this pose inevitably revealed a bit of skin. Chen Yuanzhou immediately saw a Hello Kitty making a "V" sign at him, and for a moment he felt provoked and his blood rushed to his head!
"..."
Chen Yuanzhou couldn't help but glance at it a few more times before suppressing the surging desire in his heart, quietly closing the door, and going to another bedroom.
After confirming their relationship, Chen Yuanzhou felt strange, unlike the unrestrained and carefree life of his past life. Before fully opening his heart, he didn't want to defile the beauty he hadn't yet experienced...
The next morning, Chen Yuanzhou ran away before Wu Fangzhi got up, as he habitually skipped work, and went straight to the Zijinyuan sales office.
He wasn't lying to Lin Baoyi; Zijinyuan was the next step in the plan!
My memories of my past life are very clear. Zijinyuan has many shortcomings: high plot ratio, narrow building spacing, poor apartment design, incomplete surrounding facilities, and inconvenient transportation.
If it's a previously thriving market, there's no worry about selling, since people tend to buy when prices are rising and not when they're falling; even the worst neighborhoods will find a market.
However, Zijinyuan happened to open for sale in the first half of 2008, only to be hit hard by the global financial crisis...
Therefore, since its opening, sales have remained sluggish, and the market is in a state of complete stagnation.
But all of this changed dramatically on November 9th.
No one knows how the developer of Zijinyuan, Yaojiang Group, and Xuejun School reached an agreement. All that is known is that on November 9th, leaders from Linhu District, leaders from the Linhu District Education Bureau, and the principal of Xuejun School all gathered together.
At the entrance of the newly built campus, the chairman of Yaojiang Group handed over the "golden key" symbolizing the campus to the leaders of Linhu District Education Bureau, marking the official opening of the campus and the official establishment of Xuejun Primary School (Zijin Campus) in Zijinyuan!
Just the day after the news was announced, the price of Zijinyuan soared from around 9000 yuan/㎡ to 12000 yuan/㎡.
A month later, the price of newly launched properties soared to 20000 yuan per square meter, and they were in high demand and short supply!
However, because the Shengyuan residential complex cannot be listed for sale, few people know about the school district boundaries of this new school district, which only includes Zijinyuan and Shengyuan residential complexes...
As for how the prices of the units already on sale in Zijinyuan rose so rapidly through the filing and adjustment process, there is absolutely no way of knowing.
