C614 Look Round the Room
I just wonder, how are Diao Chan's connections?
Shi Jiangyuan had been making a mess on the side, listening to their conversation and discussing countermeasures.
Shi Jiangyuan and Diao Chan were the same. Originally, Shi Jiangyuan felt that the two teams lacked some temperament and had been exposed by Kang Ying. Shi Jiangyuan understood who the two teams lacked, so he naturally approved of them going to Hong Kong for training and carving.
Diao Chan said she could contact the industry insiders in Hong Kong. After all, she was on the national television station's platform. As her industry colleague, she also knew some people.
Seeing that Diao Chan was confident, Kang Ying said goodbye to Shi Jiangyuan first. As expected, professional matters still had to be left to the professionals.
After Kang Ying left, Diao Chan announced that the six boys and girls had not expected the company to send them to Hong Kong to train at a professional acting company. Diao Chan couldn't help but feel excited.
Hong Kong was the capital of fashion, a world-renowned city. To them, being able to study there was an unimaginable feat.
After Shi Jiangyuan and Kang Ying left, they drove back.
Shi Jiangyuan said, "I didn't expect you to have such a good idea. Are you putting pressure on Diao Chan?"
"That's right. The current movies, screenwriters, and actors in Hong Kong all surpass us in all aspects, but they are still small in this region and only have a few outstanding talent. If we are going to study now, they might come and find us to study in the future."
Kang Ying's words sounded quite impressive, but Shi Jiangyuan felt that it was pretty good. He was full of confidence, so he took his hand off the steering wheel and gave her a thumbs up.
Kang Ying had promised Grandpa Murong that she would attend his birthday banquet next week. Since she had been staying in the capital for so long, Kang Ying was bored to death. Thus, she took Shi Jiangyuan to look around the house.
Shi Jiangyuan didn't expect Kang Ying to really buy a house again, so he said to her: "The house is dead, why did you buy so much?"
Kang Ying said, "I don't like those rooms!"
Shi Jiangyuan choked. He rubbed his nose and said weakly: "I heard about those who collect clippings, those who collect stamps, I've never heard about those who collect houses!"
When Kang Ying heard Shi Jiangyuan's words, she couldn't help but giggle and explain, "Some houses are outdated households, and no amount of money can buy them in the future. For example, your family's courtyard, along with the development of the commercial houses, will have new courtyard houses built according to the national land policy. In the future, they will become outdated households, so of course I'll buy more and leave them there!"
Shi Jiangyuan shook his head and said, "Alright, if you think there's any value in collecting it."
Shi Jiangyuan had never seen Kang Ying's investment fail before. Before, when he wasn't considered rich, he dared to invest all of his money in Kang Ying's project. Now that the money he had was more than five thousand times more than what he had, he was even more willing to spend money for Kang Ying.
Buy, isn't it a courtyard house? If Kang Ying likes it, then buy it!
"Yo, look at this courtyard house in the alley. Do you want to sell it?" I don't think anyone lives here anymore. "
When the two of them reached an alley, Kang Ying said as she leaned on the wall and looked into the yard. Although the yard was filled with grass, there were no signs of the wall collapsing. However, it was obvious that the owner was no longer here.
"Let's go and ask the intermediaries nearby. We might know."
Then, he wrote down the name of the alley and the number of the house and found an intermediary nearby.
"The owner of this courtyard house has gone to school in the United States," he said. "The owner of this courtyard house has now got a green card and has taken the couple with him, so the house is now empty.
"Master wants to sell it, but because the price is too high, he hasn't sold it yet. I can't find a suitable buyer for it in a short while."
"How much is it?" Kang Ying asked.
"450 thousand." When the agent saw them ask, it was obvious that they wanted to buy it. He also felt that since these two were young, how could they afford such an expensive courtyard house.
"450 thousand? Can it be any cheaper? " Kang Ying haggled.
Pricing was a kind of subconscious action. It was as if she was at a disadvantage if she did not bargain. Moreover, if Kang Ying did not bargain, the agent would think that she was being too generous and might even be more generous with her expenses.
The agent didn't dare to make the decision and said, "Let me help you ask the owner. I have his number in the United States. They probably aren't asleep yet since he is calling the United States at this time."
After saying that, the agent used his phone to make a long trip overseas.
It seemed like the intermediary was also sincere in wanting to complete this business. Otherwise, it would be very valuable to travel overseas now.
After some discussion, the agent said to Kang Ying, "They said 430 thousand is the final limit. We can't lose a single cent. If you want to go through with the procedures, if you don't want to, then forget about it."
Kang Ying looked at Shi Jiangyuan. Shi Jiangyuan said, "You decide it yourself!" The meaning of these words was to listen to Kang Ying.
Kang Ying said, "Then let's make it 40 thousand."
The agent took a deep breath and bought them. After all, it was the first time he had seen someone as straightforward as this expensive house. The most important thing was that the two of them had not even gone to the house yet and had just bought it with their eyes closed! It was like buying a bunch of cheap and good cabbages.
But how could the intermediary know that in Kang Ying's eyes, the courtyard of this price was like a cabbage.
The agent then said honestly to Kang Ying, "You haven't seen the house yet, have you?"
"Yes, I saw it. I saw it on the wall. It's a second-in-line courtyard. There should be at least eight rooms, right?" Kang Ying said.
The intermediary could not help but laugh and said, "Aren't you being a little too hasty? "How about this, I'll take you there. I have the key that they sent me."
Kang Ying saw that this intermediary was really kind. Otherwise, others might have heard that she wanted to sign the contract and couldn't wait for her to do so.
Now, this intermediary wanted to take her to see the house. She wasn't afraid that if she looked at it, she would turn her back on it and lose her business. This clearly showed how generous this intermediary was.
Thus, Kang Ying nodded and agreed.
As expected, the agent took the key and led them to the courtyard door.
After the door was pushed open, a musty smell that hadn't been felt in a long time assaulted his nose. However, the lighting in the yard was still quite good, and the foundation of the yard was also pretty good.
The agent said that the house had a history of almost a hundred years. The owner of the house was a businessman from Guangdong Province who made money here, made a fortune, and bought a house to live in.
Now, the owner's son was admitted to Tsinghua and went to study in the United States. The child was very successful. After finishing a PhD in the United States, he found a job in a university where he wanted to study. He quickly applied for a green card and took the old couple out.
