Chapter 585 Buying a Property

"The food you cook is still delicious!"

"I went to the Sichuan restaurant next door a few days ago, and the twice-cooked pork there was actually sweet."

"Later I asked the boss and found out that the boss was actually from Jiangsu Province."

At nine o'clock in the evening, Chen Li and Liu Qingqing started to have dinner. The reason was of course because for lovers who have not seen each other for a long time, some things are more important than eating.

"Uh~ Next time I'm not at home, you can ask Huang Biao to come over and cook for you."

"Although he studied Beijing cuisine, he can also cook a few home-cooked Sichuan dishes quite well."

"It really doesn't work~ Let's hire a nanny and find one from our hometown who can cook."

Chen Li scooped a bowl of chicken soup for Liu Qingqing, but he didn't use his chopsticks much because he was already full.

"Find a babysitter~ Let's forget it!"

"It's not necessary~ And it's not very convenient to have one more person. Then it won't be a world of two."

In fact, Chen Li and Liu Qingqing had already discussed the matter of finding a nanny, but as Liu Qingqing said, it was not necessary.

After all, this house is not big, and it is not too troublesome to clean up. There is not much point in finding a nanny.

And there are more than one person in the family. It really doesn’t have the atmosphere of a world of two.

Chen Li thought for a while and took out his cell phone from his pocket and called Zhang Ruolan.

"Sister Zhang~ After you go to work in two days, help me find a store near my home."

"It's not a fried chicken restaurant~ I'm going to open a Sichuan restaurant."

"Yes~ you can help me find a better Sichuan chef."

"There is only one premise. The craftsmanship must be good!"

"Hmm~ It's better if the home-cooked food is good!"

"Yes, the salary can be higher, based on the salary of a chef in a star-rated hotel."

"Well~ be more careful about this!"

"Don't think about the cost, solve it as soon as possible!"

Chen Li hung up the phone and saw Liu Qingqing opposite him looking at him with big eyes.

Liu Qingqing was certainly not an idiot. She naturally knew who her boyfriend was calling just now.

It seems that Chen Li is planning to open a Sichuan restaurant, but in fact, this Sichuan restaurant is opened for her, Liu Qingqing.

To be honest~ Chen Li's behavior of opening a Sichuan restaurant in order to solve his girlfriend's problem of eating is a bit tacky.

Even in the eyes of others, this kind of behavior is a bit wasteful or stupid.

But the problem is that as the heroine of this matter, Liu Qingqing's mood is naturally different from others.

Of course~ Although Liu Qingqing still felt that it was not good to do so, more of her emotions were still occupied by the concern from Chen Li.

I don’t know how to cook, and the restaurants nearby are not to my liking, so my boyfriend deliberately opened a Sichuan restaurant nearby. This kind of thing basically only happens in idol dramas, right?

Others may think it's a bit silly, but if they were in the same position as Liu Qingqing, most people would probably be moved.

"Hmm~ Isn't it bad to do this?"

Although she was moved, Liu Qingqing still remained conscious, but in fact, at this moment, she wanted to throw herself into Chen Li's arms.

"There's nothing wrong with it. In fact, I've wanted to do this for a long time."

"You don't know, although I can cook, I don't know much."

“Sometimes when I go to the vegetable market, I don’t know what vegetables to buy!”

"It will be much better now that we have this Sichuan restaurant. Sometimes I can cook it if I want to, and if I don't want to, I can just go to a restaurant to eat it or ask them to deliver it to me."

This time, what Chen Li said was really not a lie.

Although this was indeed done more for Liu Qingqing's consideration, in fact, he had really wanted to do this for a long time.

How early is it? Chen Li had thought about this when he was working in a nightclub in his previous life.

At that time, Chen Li was working in a nightclub in Chengdu. Logically speaking, as a city of gourmet food, Chengdu has no shortage of delicious food.

But the problem is that the places where Chen Li works are almost all entertainment venues. Even if there are places to eat, most of them are hot pot or some special dishes.

These dishes all have one characteristic, that is, they are very delicious if you eat them once in a while, but if you want to eat them every day, let alone whether your stomach can handle them or not, and your wallet can't handle them either.

But there was no home-cooked food nearby, so what Chen Li wanted most at that time was to open an authentic fly restaurant nearby.

Of course, this idea is just a thought, because no one with any business sense would open a fly restaurant in that place.

After all, the rent alone is not something that ordinary fly restaurants can accept.

And people who go to that place to consume will never go to a fly restaurant to eat.

Needless to say now, Chen Li has enough funds to satisfy this idea, not to mention that the business of opening a Sichuan restaurant nearby may not be bad at all. Even if there is no business, Chen Li can fully afford to support such a restaurant.

.

After this act of making money in the capital market, Chen Li's wealth increased rapidly.

It's even an exaggeration to say that Chen Li's wealth is now very difficult to lose by simply spending money.

Yes~ This is also the reason why so many rich people don't really care about their children's random spending, because simply spending money will definitely save more money than investing money.

Assuming that a prodigal spends 100,000 yuan a day, he can also spend 36.5 million a year.

365 million in ten years to only 3.65 billion in one hundred years!

But in fact, if you deposit 3.65 billion in the bank, the annual interest will be more than the 36.5 million.

So in fact, it is difficult to destroy a wealthy company by simply spending money.

But if it's investment~or letting someone manage the company, then it's hard to say.

Not to mention 3.65 billion, even 36.5 billion can still make you lose everything.

Therefore, we often see a phenomenon that the rich would rather let their younger generations spend a lot of money, but are not willing to let them enter their own companies and do whatever they want.

Often only those juniors who are truly capable are entrusted with important responsibilities.

Of course, what we are talking about here are those bosses who are really discerning about people. Some bosses who are not so discerning are not included in this list.

So, spending money is actually a kind of knowledge, but for ordinary people, the threshold of this knowledge is a bit high.

After all, ordinary people are running around all year round, and the three melons and two dates they earn can only pay for their mortgage and car loans. Some capable people can still have some savings.

As for spending money lavishly, most people simply cannot do it.

Chen Li also spent a lot of money before he understood some of the twists and turns. Whether it was buying a luxury car or other expenses, the details were not something that the nightclub director in his previous life could understand.

So the next day, Chen Li went to see the building.

Yes~ Let’s look at the building, and it’s an office building.

By this time in 2000, land prices in Yanjing had actually risen.

But compared with the almost unattainable price later, the price at this time is really not very high.

Especially the prices outside the Third Ring Road, in Chen Li's opinion, are almost the same as cabbage prices.

Of course, this cabbage is not the one sold in the vegetable market.

Anyway, compared with the land prices in Yanjing in later generations, the land prices in Yanjing City at this time were completely lower than Chen Li imagined.

After all, this was still 2000, and the Fourth Ring Road in Yanjing was not even connected yet!

In other words, at this time, outside the Third Ring Road and inside the Fourth Ring Road, it is basically the most remote place in Yanjing City.

As for office buildings, they generally would not choose such places. On the contrary, places with more expensive land prices are more popular.

For example ~ near the famous Zhongguancun!

But it's obvious that Chen Li doesn't think so, and the reason is very simple. The area in Zhongguancun has been highly speculated. Although you won't lose money if you buy an office building there, due to financial constraints, Chen Li is probably

Can't buy much.

And to be honest~ As for the Zhongguancun side, even if Chen Lili buys it, he probably won't be able to buy it. After all, he is not a fool. He knows that the office buildings in Zhongguancun are very popular, so naturally he will not choose to sell them.

Of course, if Chen Li wants to rent, there will naturally be a lot of people willing to rent their office buildings to Chen Li.

Unfortunately, this time Chen Li made up his mind and planned to purchase an office building directly.

There is no other way~ This time is almost the best time to buy an office building.

Because in the past two years, affected by the financial crisis in Southeast Asia, the office market in Yanjing City has experienced a big plunge.

This has led to the fact that the land that the developers originally acquired at a high price could not be sold at a high price after the projects were built.

Some properties have even become unfinished during this crisis!

Therefore, if you have money, it is definitely a very suitable time to purchase a real estate project in the first two years.

But again, everything in the world cannot revolve around one person. Anyway, in the past two years, Chen Li did not have the funds to purchase any real estate projects in Yanjing.

By 2000, influenced by the international situation and the high prosperity of the domestic Internet industry, Yanjing's office building projects ushered in another wave of climax.

It's just a pity that this wave of climax has just raised its head, and the Internet bubble in the United States suddenly burst.

Obviously in the first half of the year, there were Internet companies everywhere in Yanjing looking for office buildings, but by this time in July, a large number of Internet companies chose to leave the market after burning all their money but having no hope of financing.

And the scariest thing is that this storm is expected to last for a long time.

At the very least, the impact of this crisis will gradually disappear after the capital market in the United States is completely stabilized.

So at this time, it was a good time for Chen Li to take action.

The original owner of the office building Chen Li was looking at today was actually a cross-industry real estate developer.

Yes~ It is said that this guy started out as a businessman in his early years. After earning the first pot of gold in his life, this guy went to Qiongdao again.

If we really count, this guy is the first wave of people to enter the Qiongdao real estate industry to make money.

Although he retired very early and did not catch up with the most popular period of Qiongdao real estate, it was precisely because he retired early that he was not affected in any way and even made a lot of money.

It was also because he saw the benefits of real estate in Qiongdao that this guy also invested in the real estate industry after returning to Yanjing.

In just a few years, this guy has made a huge fortune.

It's a pity. Perhaps this guy is too smart, or he feels that the real estate industry is not making money fast enough, so this time this guy set his sights on the capital market.

Then there was no more! Anyway, now this guy is selling off his fixed assets, and it is said that he is preparing to make a comeback.

Of course, this information was all told to Chen Li by the intermediary. As for whether it is true or not, it is none of his business!

Chen Li is not here to investigate the other party's identity information, he is just here to buy a building.

Buying a property is indeed a big deal even for today's Chen Li.

After all, this is not buying a house, the unit of funds spent is not even ten thousand~ but hundreds of millions!

Therefore, Chen Li must find a knowledgeable person, and this person is none other than Zhou Xiaoli’s father, Zhou Bowen!

After all, this person used to be involved in the real estate industry in Yanjing. He naturally knows the ins and outs of the real estate industry better than Chen Li.

"Uncle Zhou~ What do you say?"

After walking around the office building, Chen Li looked at Zhou Bowen and asked.

"How do you say what?"

"If you really ask me for my opinion, I will definitely not buy it!"

"Let me tell you the truth, buying this office building is definitely better than renting it!"

"If you have extra money, you might as well invest it in the company and develop it."

“Buying a property is not cost-effective!”

Zhou Bowen, who just turned fifty this year, has changed a lot compared to when Chen Li first met him.

At that time, Zhou Bowen was the major shareholder and chairman of the real estate company. When he met Chen Li for the first time, he even put a lot of pressure on Chen Li.

Although Zhou Bowen still has a sense of elegance in his body now, all the pressure he put on Chen Li at the beginning is gone.

Of course, a large part of this is due to Chen Li's current development momentum and Zhou Bowen's slightly miserable current situation, but a larger part is caused by Zhou Bowen's nearly full head of white hair.

Yes~ In just one year, Zhou Bowen's hair was almost completely white.

Anyone who sees such a little old man would never imagine that he could have been a big shot before.

And the most exaggerated thing is that Zhou Bowen, who is 50 years old this year, is even working part-time to pay off his debts!

Yes~ Zhou Bowen is now a consultant for two real estate companies, and his combined annual salary is even close to one million.

But the problem is that such a high income is not enough for him to repay the principal and interest to the bank every year.

Therefore, Zhou Bowen has always wanted to find an opportunity to make a comeback.

He even approached Chen Li before because he heard that Chen Li had made a lot of money in the capital market, but Chen Li blocked him before he could speak, and Zhou Bowen never came to see him again.

.

This time Chen Li took the initiative to find him, and the little old man was even a little emotional.

However, considering that the commission given by Chen Li was quite generous, the little old man finally came.

Of course, the main reason for this is probably because Chen Li called Zhou Xiaoli.

Otherwise, with this little old man’s temper, he probably really wouldn’t want to talk to Chen Li!
