Chapter 517: Chapter 517: Villa No. 1
Su Zhenjiang and Zheng Guozhu, shocked, immediately asked Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, how do you know President Yang?”
Lin Fei looked at the two and said, “The Baoli controlled by President Yang is a military enterprise, so he often goes to military bases to find Commander Chen. I met President Yang when I visited Commander Chen.”
Lin Fei did indeed meet President Yang in Chen Biao’s office, but he concealed from Su Zhenjiang and Zheng Guozhu his investment of billions in Baoli.
Zheng Guozhu had already learned from Zheng Yutong about Lin Fei’s relationship with Commander Chen.
And it wasn’t unusual for President Yang, as the head of a military enterprise, to appear at Commander Chen’s place.
Lin Fei meeting President Yang at Commander Chen’s place was indeed very likely.
As for Su Zhenjiang, who didn’t know Lin Fei was acquainted with Commander Chen, he was as surprised to hear Lin Fei knew Commander Chen as he was to hear Lin Fei was familiar with President Yang.
This made him feel that Lin Fei really was extraordinarily capable.
To be able to deal with such famous figures as Commander Chen and President Yang, his means were truly exceptional.
Su Zhenjiang’s admiration for Lin Fei was as boundless as the waters of the Yangtze River.
“So it turns out that Lin Fei met President Yang at Commander Chen’s place. It seems you really clicked with Commander Chen and President Yang. Ordinary people rarely get to meet them,” Zheng Guozhu said with a touch of envy.
Lin Fei just smiled calmly, “Mr. Zheng, you overpraise me.”
Then, Lin Fei turned his gaze toward the banquet hall.
Although it was daytime, the banquet hall remained brightly lit.
The hall, decorated with splendid luxury, was several hundred square meters wide. Each table draped in red cloth was piled with various pastries, along with champagne and wine.
As well as lobsters, sea cucumbers, and other delicious foods.
A long table, several meters in length, was placed by the floor-to-ceiling window facing outdoors, with a real estate model displayed on it.
Many super-rich individuals held a glass of champagne, standing in front of the real estate model, pointing and discussing the villas on the development.
In the crowd viewing the development, Lin Fei saw Mayor Yang and his sister Yang Jiahao.
While Zhu Qinglong, Zhu Zirui, and Lu Yichen were standing by the floor-to-ceiling window facing outdoors, Lu Yichen was pointing outside as if introducing something to Zhu Qinglong.
Zhu Qinglong held a glass of red wine, sipping it while listening to Lu Yichen talk.
“Let’s go over and take a look at the development,” at this point, Su Zhenjiang said to Lin Fei and Zheng Guozhu.
Lin Fei’s acquaintance with President Yang gave Su Zhenjiang and Zheng Guozhu a chance to meet President Yang.
The two were not in a hurry, as long as Lin Fei remained in Shencheng, they would have the opportunity to meet President Yang through him.
Lin Fei withdrew his gaze from Zhu Qinglong and nodded to Su Zhenjiang.
Subsequently, the five of them walked towards the real estate model.
The five of them arrived at the real estate model, and Yang Jiahao also noticed Su Xiaoyue and Zheng Yutong, and discovered Lin Fei.
Especially seeing Lin Fei, Yang Jiahao didn’t know why her heart started racing, feeling a bit nervous yet expectant.
It seemed as if she really wanted to see Lin Fei.
This made her beautiful face flush with a faint blush.
She approached Su Xiaoyue and Zheng Yutong, softly greeting, “Xiaoyue, Yutong, you’re here too.”
Because Lin Fei was nearby, Yang Jiahao was no longer the lively and enthusiastic person she was when she met Su Xiaoyue and Zheng Yutong at Dragon Club that night. Not only did she not hug the two women, but even her speech was much gentler.
This prompted Zheng Yutong to tease her a bit, “Jiahao, it seems the power of love is indeed great. Since you’re in love, even your speech has become softer.”
Yang Jiahao’s pretty face turned even redder. As if afraid of being misunderstood, she quickly explained, “Yutong, I didn’t! Besides, I’ve already broken up with that rich second generation.”
Zheng Yutong and Su Xiaoyue looked surprised, “No way? So quickly broken up?”
That’s quite fast!
However, Yang Jiahao didn’t show any sign of regret, saying, “What’s so strange about it? He’s such a sissy with no manly spirit at all, plus we had incompatible personalities, so we broke up.”
She glanced at Lin Fei with her eyes, wanting to see his reaction.
But when she saw Lin Fei’s attention was not on her but on the real estate model, she couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
The real reason she broke up with her boyfriend was that night at Dragon Club, she was captivated by Lin Fei’s manly demeanor. From initially looking down on Lin Fei with arrogance, she was conquered by his skills to the point of total admiration.
Since that night, she had been thinking about Lin Fei constantly, eventually deciding to break up with her boyfriend.
Lin Fei didn’t pay attention to the conversation between Yang Jiahao, Zheng Yutong, and Su Xiaoyue. He was currently looking at the real estate model.
The real estate model was made based on Jade Dew Mountain, very realistic, with some trees, flowers, and even valleys and streams, all faithfully rendered.
And scattered on the hillside of Jade Dew Mountain were the villa models.
About dozens of wealthy individuals unanimously deemed the three villas on the south side of the Jade Dew Mountain model to be the best.
These three villas were numbered 123, with the villa labeled number 1 being the best among them.
Villa No. 1 boasted a stream in the back garden, pines and cypresses in the courtyard, and a waterfall flowing down from the opposite valley, with its location and scenery being exceptionally unique.
The surrounding super-rich people were all discussing this villa, unparalleled in location and scenery, No. 1.
“No. 1 Villa is the king of all villas. Look, there’s a stream from Jade Dew Mountain in its garden, and century-old pines in the courtyard. What is absolutely marvelous is that opposite the villa is the waterfall of Jade Dew Mountain!” said an elderly man in his fifties, wearing glasses, who was articulately explaining.
“That’s right, this No. 1 Villa is definitely a masterpiece! I’m buying this villa!” declared a middle-aged man with a fat head and ears, wearing five or six gemstone rings such as cat’s eye and emerald on his hand.
But as soon as he spoke, other super-rich individuals objected, “No way, you can’t buy this No. 1 Villa!”
“I want to buy No. 1 Villa!”
“You can’t fight me for it!”
Dozens of super-rich people all eyed the No. 1 Villa, starting to clamor for it.
“Gentlemen, please calm down!” At this moment, a middle-aged man who was introducing the Jade Dew Mountain villa development to Mayor Yang shouted loudly to the scrambling crowd.
This middle-aged man, around thirty-one or thirty-two, wore a suit and tie, exuding extraordinary poise, standing there with the air of a business leader.
This person was Manager Zhang.
Upon hearing Manager Zhang’s words, the wealthy people ceased their bickering.
“Manager Zhang, I’m willing to offer ten million more than the original price to buy No. 1 Villa,” the middle-aged wealthy man with the fat head and ears, eager to demonstrate his generosity, said to Manager Zhang.
But as soon as this wealthy man with a fat head and ears spoke, other wealthy individuals began to bid twenty million, thirty million over the original price to buy No. 1 Villa.
It was about to turn into another round of bidding war.
Manager Zhang waved his hand at them and said, “Gentlemen, I’m terribly sorry! This No. 1 Villa, as well as Villas No. 2 and No. 3, are not for sale externally, but reserved for important shareholders of Baoli Group.”
Hearing this, all the wealthy individuals showed expressions of disappointment.
“Manager Zhang, I’ll offer three billion to buy No. 1 Villa! Will you sell it?” Just then, came a voice, old yet dignified, even authoritative.
