American Warehouse Taobao King
Chapter 217: [Under the New Highlights of Wealth]
Yang Yong burst out laughing when he saw Charlie, the real estate agent, say this to him seriously.
Yang Yong asked with a smile.
"Why? Just because his house looks like a haunted house? It's like a vampire's lair, and it sells for 1.5 million. His brain is watered."
Charlie understands that Yang Yong doesn't believe what you said? After all, whoever sees this house will feel that this house is about to collapse, a pile of ruins, and whoever has a mental illness worth 1.5 million will buy this house.
Even if the 0.5 acre freehold property was on the outskirts of Augusta, the capital of Maine, it couldn’t possibly be worth $1.5 million! This is the US dollar, not the Japanese yen and Korean won like waste paper. When did the US dollar become so worthless.
I understand it, but I still have to give Yang Yong a set to try to sell the house, otherwise Charlie will starve in the second half of the year. So Charlie, the real estate agent, began to use all his skills to pull out a report from his briefcase and hand it to Yang Yong.
"Mr. Yang, why is this house worth $1.5 million? You have the right to be in this report? After you read it, you should understand why the owner has such confidence? Asking this pile of rubble for $1.5 million."
This time Yang Yong became interested. Yang Yong really wanted to know what treasures in this haunted house could be worth 1.5 million US dollars. When he opened the report, Yang Yong's eyes were attracted by the evaluation report of this house.
The house was built in 1900, and it has been more than 100 years now. It is more or less an ancient building. The peculiar place is not the history of the house. Why add 1.5 million US dollars.
That's because the building materials of this house are very special. The upper and lower two-story masonry structures are the most common materials, but the most peculiar part of the wood used in the house is also the most valuable, because the roof beams are made of Made of lobular rosewood from South Asia.
The use of lobular rosewood reaches five cubic meters, and they are all very precious large materials with a diameter of more than 20 centimeters. The wooden structure of the house is all tenon-and-mortise structure. The wood required for some small beams is even more valuable from Indonesia. of agarwood.
Although it has been around for a hundred years, these agarwoods still exude a peculiar fragrance, so as to repel some termite pests, the house structure will not be damaged by termites, and the usage of agarwood is also about five cubic meters.
Another reason for the sale of a house for $1.5 million is that when buying a house, the owner will send a set of antique furniture, which is also hundreds of years old. Although many years of disrepair and damage to the furniture, the age of these furniture can be more than two hundred years. It is a set of furniture from the ancestral family of this Manchu noble family. However, the material of this wooden furniture is not very good, only nanmu.
If the beams are calculated in this way, the total amount of red sandalwood and agarwood produced in Indonesia reaches ten cubic meters. Even if the wood is rare and worth more than $1 million, the set of antique furniture in disrepair will not exceed $300,000.
Based on this calculation, the highest selling price of this house is about 1 million, and the owner’s asking price of 1.5 million is definitely looking for a profit.
After reading the report carefully, Yang Yong shook his head with a wry smile and said to Charlie with a sigh.
"Charlie, are you a real estate agent? Although you are selling second-hand houses, you have something to do with architecture. Although there are some structures of red sandalwood and agarwood in this building, the total amount reaches ten cubic meters."
"But this house is over a hundred years old. The medicinal value of agarwood is very low, and the red sandalwood has been crushed and deformed. You should know how much these waste wood are worth."
When Charlie saw that Yang Yong was so knowledgeable, his heart went cold. It seemed that he had met a connoisseur, so the vixen who has been a thousand years old should stop talking about Liaozhai, and let's be honest! So Charlie nodded and admitted with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Yang is also an expert in this field. You are right. Although the amount of red sandalwood and agarwood used for the beams reaches ten cubic meters, these can only be fooled by outsiders."
"The biggest use of agarwood is its medicinal value and incense value, not to mention that it has been more than a hundred years old, and these agarwood have been abandoned."
Seeing that Charlie finally told himself the truth, Yang Yong said comfortably. "It is the value of these agarwoods that has decreased, but the price of ten cubic meters of two noble woods will also exceed $300,000."
"If you include the set of nanmu furniture that was in disrepair and dilapidated, the cost of the entire house would not exceed $700,000. The $1 million is paid on the spot, and $1.5 million is too exaggerated."
Since his lies were exposed, Charlie took back the idea of selling the house to Yang Yong. Since the sale could not be made, but Yang Yong's worth and status, Charlie still observed with keen eyes that he was inseparable.
Yang Yong is a billionaire, and dealing with such people is a big strategy for these real estate agents. In case billionaires want a house, can they find them? These real estate agents will not earn a commission.
In addition, the rain stopped outside, the sun was also showing from the thick clouds, the forest air was fresh everywhere, and the haunted house was not so scary under the sun, so Charlie laughed and invited Yang Yong to the inside of the house. Take a tour. Since you have come here, of course you have to take a look before leaving without leaving any regrets.
Yang Yong agrees with this. Although he was born in the United States, he has a Chinese heart and yearns for China, the hometown of his ancestors. Since this house was built by a Qing Dynasty noble more than 100 years ago, it is also his hometown. , it is still very necessary to take a look, and visit it for entertainment.
The house covers an area of 0.5 acres and is surrounded by tall stone walls, which are covered with moss due to the age.
The gate made of cast iron has been shattered everywhere, not to mention people, even wild dogs, but the owner of the house put a new lock on the dilapidated gate.
This character is really weird. Charlie, as a real estate agent, of course has the key to open this dilapidated door and invite Yang Yong to enter this haunted house.
The area of 0.5 acres is not small, it is equivalent to the size of a football field. Because it is on the edge of the forest, there is a small mountain behind the house. In addition, it has been in disrepair and has not been cleaned for a long time, so the yard is full of weedy shrubs.
I even saw two hares jumping away, but we could vaguely see from the weeds that there were some stone paths and some buildings with Chinese characteristics.
Yang Yong even saw some green bamboo growing on the edge of a dilapidated city wall. Since the central axis from the gate to the main entrance of the house is paved with gravel roads, there are no weeds growing on the gravel roads, and everything is very clean. white small stones.
The house is a masonry structure. From the outside, it looks crooked and will collapse soon, but when you get closer, you can see that the shape of the two-story masonry building is a Chinese architectural feature.
In addition to being covered with ivy-like plants, it seems to form a twisted shape. It is this kind of building, which is 60% intact and extremely difficult to repair.
