Chapter Thirty-One: Buy a House and Get a Concubine
"Can you afford it?"
Zhang Guilan turned around abruptly, her astonishment followed by disdain: "Please, if you're going to show off, you have to be genuinely capable, okay? Otherwise, it's just forced posturing, and that's fatal!"
Zhuo Yang calmly replied, "How do you know I'm just putting on a show?"
"Hmph!" Zhang Guilan turned and left. "Judging from your clothes, you probably only have two hundred yuan on you at most. A poor bastard like you shouldn't try to pick up girls with fancy things like buying a house. It'll hurt a lot if you get slapped in the face!"
Before he could finish speaking, he disappeared around the corner, leaving Zhuo Yang alone in the huge hall.
"Chasing girls?"
Zhuo Yang was both amused and exasperated. His head was throbbing. "Even if I'm trying to pick up a girl, I can't pick up someone like you!"
Forget it, securing prime land is more important.
He banged on the table, calling for someone to come.
This time, a different saleswoman came. She was tall, curvy, and had a cute, small face. She gave off a gentle and intelligent vibe, with big eyes and a sincere smile. She looked to be in her early twenties.
The name on the name tag: Huang Jiaxin.
"Hello sir, how can I help you?" Huang Jiaxin smiled respectfully, her politeness coming from the bottom of her heart.
Zhuo Yang nodded comfortably and said, "I want to buy this villa."
A look of astonishment crossed Huang Jiaxin's face. She stared wide-eyed at the model Zhuo Yang was pointing to and quickly said, "Sir, you have a good eye, but... but we're not selling that villa!"
"Why is that?" Zhuo Yang asked, as if trying to look down on me again?
I'm almost traumatized by it. The moment I bought the house, I immediately went to buy clothes and pamper myself.
Even a demon lord can't stand being looked down upon all the time!
Huang Jiaxin looked around to make sure no one was watching before whispering, "There's something wrong with this villa. It's not a quality issue, it's...it's a paranormal event!"
"If you like the villas at our Penglai Pavilion, I suggest you buy one closer to the foot of the mountain, as it's closer to the security guard's office..."
This is the first time I've heard of a real estate developer who has good houses but doesn't sell them.
Zhuo Yang became even more curious about the supernatural event, so he asked with a smile, "Miss Huang, you don't think I can't afford it, just like Miss Zhang did earlier, do you?"
"No, no." Huang Jiaxin was a little flustered, not daring to look at Zhuo Yang's face. "There really is something wrong with that house!"
A blush slowly crept onto her face, and her heart began to pound inexplicably.
He's just averagely handsome, why should I be shy?
Huang Jiaxin felt that she must have been working alone in Lingzhou for a long time and wanted to be in a relationship.
Zhuo Yang couldn't help but laugh when he looked at her. He leaned closer and asked, "Can you tell me what went wrong? That way, I'll have a better understanding when I buy the house."
Huang Jiaxin nodded awkwardly and said in a low voice, "Two months ago, on the second day of the second lunar month, our villa project was launched and many customers made reservations. But that very night, the highest villa, number 101, was struck by lightning and caught fire!"
“Our security personnel immediately called the fire department, and the fire was quickly extinguished. The damage was minimal, and we repaired the villa in just one day.”
"But the following night, a torrential downpour occurred, and Taipei 101 was struck by lightning, causing a fire."
"We repaired it as quickly as possible and are even preparing to sell Villa No. 101 at a reduced price."
"Unexpectedly, on the third day, Taipei 101 was struck by lightning again..."
"When the news spread, some people said that the feng shui of our community was bad, especially villa number 101, which was considered a haunted house. From that day on, customers who had already made reservations all canceled their orders, and only a few people bought villas near the foot of the mountain..."
She regretted it as soon as she said it. She had said everything. If she couldn't sell the house, she would starve.
It's all this guy's fault, he made the other person talk nonsense!
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yang suddenly understood.
Penglai Pavilion is nestled against the mountains and faces the water, with the "arms" of the mountains extending out on both sides, making it an excellent place in terms of feng shui. On the second day of the second lunar month, the vital energy trembled and affected the whole world, making the vital energy even more abundant. Villa No. 101 is the core of this formation, the place with the most abundant vital energy.
However, even the strongest vital energy wouldn't trigger a lightning strike, so there's only one possibility: something beyond the comprehension of ordinary people is inside Villa 101!
"Miss Huang, could you please take me to see the house?" Zhuo Yang asked eagerly, then explained, "I know about feng shui. If there aren't any major problems with the house, I can fix them myself and then buy it!"
"Huh? You even know about feng shui?" Huang Jiaxin looked up in disbelief, her big eyes wide open.
“That’s right.” Zhuo Yang raised an eyebrow at her. “Since I’m buying a house, you can earn a commission, right?”
Huang Jiaxin blushed at Zhuo Yang's teasing and quickly lowered her head.
She herself was wondering why. She had been a real estate agent for over a year and had seen all kinds of people, including countless handsome men, all of whom were wealthy.
Why does my face feel hot when this guy just smiled at me?
"Please lead the way," Zhuo Yang said with a gentle smile.
Huang Jiaxin's face turned even redder, and she started walking without even thinking.
By the time she came to her senses, she had already led Zhuo Yang through the entire villa community and arrived at the gate of Villa No. 101, which was located at the highest point on the hillside.
This villa is larger than the others, surrounded by waist-high brambles forming a courtyard wall, and there is a lawn in front of the gate with a direct view of the bay at the foot of the mountain, offering a superb view.
However, there is a charred patch on the top of the villa's facade, which affects its overall appearance.
"Huh? We repaired the villa last time, so why was it struck by lightning again?" Huang Jiaxin blinked her big eyes in confusion as she saw the charred area.
"Sir, you'd better not buy this villa; it's too eerie."
She couldn't help but grab Zhuo Yang's sleeve, her small face showing a hint of fear.
Zhuo Yang admired Huang Jiaxin more and more; she was kind-hearted and her soul had not been tainted by money, which was rare.
Just then, shouts came from above.
Zhuo Yang turned around and saw Zhang Guilan, the one who had looked down on him before, jogging over.
"Xiao Huang, are you stupid?" She ran up to Zhuo Yang and, before she could catch her breath, cursed Huang Jiaxin.
Huang Jiaxin's face paled, and after hesitating, she said, "Manager Zhang, Villa No. 101..."
“101 is the best villa in our Penglai Pavilion!” Zhang Guilan glared at her, then ignored her and turned to Zhuo Yang, her expression growing increasingly disgusted.
"Sir, please take your luggage from the sales office with you. Don't let it interfere with our business!"
"After all, it's a broken box, and it will affect the image of our sales office!"
After saying that, she glared at Huang Jiaxin again: "You brat, keep your eyes open in the future. Don't believe everyone. Look at this guy, do you think he can afford a villa?"
“Deputy Manager Zhang, we…he…is also a customer!” Huang Jiaxin argued.
"Have you ever seen someone come to buy a villa with just a broken suitcase?" Zhang Guilan looked at Zhuo Yang with disdain. "He uses looking at houses as an excuse, but his real purpose is to pick up girls!"
Hearing this, Zhuo Yang's lips trembled. "Does this gentleman look so unreliable?"
At that moment, he made a decision.
"Of course I want to buy this villa, but," Zhuo Yang said, taking Huang Jiaxin's hand and pulling her to his side, "I plan to buy it from this lady, and she can keep the commission!"
"what?"
Zhang Guilan looked incredulous, thinking to herself that this guy had a sharp eye. That girl Xiao Huang was still a virgin, but even more shameless. You're planning to buy a house and you want us to give you a concubine?
Your attempts to pick up girls are really over the top!
