City's Best Divine Doctor-Chapter 1742 - 1702: Cai Qin
Ye Qiu had been to East Sea several times, and he knew that East Sea was much larger than Jinling. Now, as he came downstairs with the two women and got into his car, he still didn’t know where Ma Wenwen was planning to take him.
"Where do you want to take me?"
"Didn’t you say you wanted to buy a house? I’m taking you there now."
Currently, Ye Qiu had six hundred million in cash in his bank account. Of course, Ye Qiu knew that someone would soon foot the bill for his house purchase.
"Wenwen, what I want to buy is a luxury villa."
Ma Wenwen knew Ye Qiu was wealthy. That time in The East Ocean, Ye Qiu had made quite a bit of money treating the wealthy there, and she was well aware of this.
However, in East Sea, the total price of a house could be two or three hundred million, or even more.
In the city center, prices for a place like The Mansions at Tomson Heights could go as high as three or four million per square meter, and that’s for elevator apartments. Even though they are all luxury duplexes, a 500-square meter unit could cost one or two billion.
"Are you sure?" Ma Wenwen still asked.
"Do you think I’m joking? Anyway, I think someone will come with the money soon."
Ma Wenwen couldn’t understand.
Since Ye Qiu wanted to see luxury residences, she directly took him to a luxury villa community in Pudong, East Sea.
Nowadays, in East Sea, even a house over ten million is considered a luxury home for some. Ordinary apartments with elevators could cost five or six thousand per square meter or higher, so anything over 144 square meters counts as a luxury home.
Therefore, owning an apartment in the city center in East Sea could easily exceed ten million.
Previously, Ma Wenwen worked as a reporter and had a somewhat notable identity in East Sea City, which is why she could take Ye Qiu straight to a luxury villa community.
There were few brand new luxury villas available in East Sea City, most were old. The new ones resulted from redevelopment of the old areas.
The place Ma Wenwen was taking Ye Qiu to see was a new complex from a real estate brand, though the price was not low, at over three hundred thousand per square meter.
When Ye Qiu drove over, the security guard, seeing that it was a high-end Range Rover, seemed very enthusiastic at first. However, after Ye Qiu parked and the guard noticed his attire, he assumed Ye Qiu was just a chauffeur, and his expression instantly changed.
Ye Qiu didn’t bother to pay attention. When he got out of the car with Ma Wenwen and Li Rui, and Li Rui learned that the price here was over three hundred thousand per square meter, she knew that she wouldn’t have to consider it for the rest of her life.
"My friend should be here soon."
When Ma Wenwen was a journalist, she knew quite a few people, although none were particularly close. However, the real estate agent for this complex was a female sales director.
When Cai Qin heard that Ma Wenwen was bringing a client, she was a bit skeptical.
Soon, Ye Qiu saw a young woman in a professional LO black suit step out and greet Ma Wenwen eagerly.
"Reporter Ma, you really brought a client. Where’s the client?"
With a glance, Cai Qin noticed the plainly dressed Ye Qiu and Li Rui, realizing they couldn’t afford the properties here. But seeing the Rang Rover nearby, she assumed the big boss was in the car.
"Director Cai, I’ve long resigned from being a reporter. I’m now a freelance writer. This is my client, Ye Qiu," Ma Wenwen introduced, pointing to Ye Qiu.
Seeing Ye Qiu, Cai Qin was once again surprised.
How could this be possible?
"Wenwen, these apartments start at a billion," Cai Qin was worried that Ma Wenwen might face embarrassment with her friend later. After all, the houses here are so expensive, and a certain financial standing is required to purchase them.
"I know, he is indeed wealthy," Ma Wenwen replied.
As they followed Cai Qin inside, Ye Qiu noticed that apart from the staff, there was no one else around. With prices so high, selling even one in a few days seemed unlikely.
Even those who came to buy usually chose the best times. After all, for the affluent, time was extremely valuable.
Inside Cai Qin’s office, after serving coffee to the three of them, Cai Qin brought out the property information to introduce.
"All of these are luxury villa properties, even the apartments with elevators are over 400 square meters. Combined with other factors, these elevator apartments cost nearly a billion. If it’s a villa, the price would be double that."
In summary, villas are more expensive than apartments with elevators, coupled with larger areas.
As Cai Qin was introducing the properties, she bent down, briefly giving Ye Qiu a glimpse of something white underneath while an alluring fragrance filled the air.
Cai Qin seemed unaware, and after handing the materials to Ye Qiu and giving a brief introduction, she asked, "Mr. Ye, are you really sure you want to buy?"
"Ms. Cai, do you think I’d waste my time playing games with you? Of course, if the house suits me, I’ll definitely buy it."
When Cai Qin still appeared skeptical, Ye Qiu directly pulled out his bank cards.
One was a black card from Oriental Fuji Bank, and the other a black card from the Agricultural Bank. If it were just the domestic card, it would only prove Ye Qiu had some money.
However, the Oriental Fuji Bank’s black card with unlimited credit was enough to confirm that this young man was extremely wealthy.
This revelation truly shocked Cai Qin. She had initially thought this young man was just a low-key second-generation rich kid.
Seeing that Ye Qiu indeed had the means to afford a home here, Cai Qin naturally became much more enthusiastic.
After finishing their coffee, she led Ye Qiu and the others out of the office, asking whether he preferred to see the duplex luxury apartments with views of the Huangpu River, or the standalone villas.
"Let’s look at the villas. I have a fear of elevators."
Ye Qiu afraid of elevators?
Actually, Ye Qiu was just joking.
As they led Ye Qiu to the completely built villa area, only one-third of the villas had been sold, the rest had no buyers yet.
Arriving at one villa with an interior space of 500 square meters, Ye Qiu didn’t need to look further. He already knew that the high prices were largely due to it being located in East Sea.
These villas were part of a redevelopment project. The process involved the government making money, the original urban village residents making money, and the real estate company making money. Given these factors, it’s unlikely the prices would be low.
Ye Qiu found the 500 square meter villa, not counting the two basement floors, to be quite decent.
However, given the high land value in this area, the garden space wasn’t as generous as those in Jinling, with only a few hundred square meters in total.
"Mr. Ye, what do you think?"
This villa alone cost more than a billion, and Cai Qin thought Ye Qiu might find it suitable.
"Too small," Ye Qiu said, shaking his head.
