Tycoon: I can see the goddess's wish list
Chapter 420 - 418, buying a house for the little lover?
"Do you want to try out this car?" Luofeng glanced at his Lamborghini and asked.
Liu Hanyan could be said to be very knowledgeable about cars. She previously had every performance parameter of the Porsche 911 and Audi R8 at her fingertips. And the car she had bought was a Mercedes-Benz GLC. With a price tag of over a million, choosing this car meant she really liked it; otherwise, one might go for a Porsche Cayenne, right? After all, in terms of brand recognition, design, and resale value, the Porsche Cayenne absolutely crushed the Mercedes-Benz GLC.
As for the resale value of performance cars? Just forget about it. Hers was a high-end model, and high-end models had the worst resale value. The ones with the best resale value were usually the base models, unless you didn’t count the optional extras. If you wanted a performance car but also cared about resale value and cost-effectiveness, it was recommended to buy a second-hand performance car—the resale value was much more reasonable that way. It was almost like getting it for free.
Take the Porsche 718, for example; it’s very suitable to be bought second-hand. You could spend four or five hundred thousand on a second-hand Porsche 718, drive it for half a year to a year, and you might only lose a few tens of thousands. If the owner was somewhat generous, you might even make money. Drive a Porsche for a year and then make money on it, or lose only thirty thousand yuan? Not too shabby, huh?
As for the Mercedes-Benz GLC, don’t even ask. These niche performance cars hardly had a second-hand market; it was all down to luck.
Liu Hanyan accepted the car key without hesitation. Her driving skills were excellent, as was her performance on a Simmons mattress. When Luofeng first met her and when they went to the university, he had let her drive for him.
Now, the yellow Lamborghini SUV, under Liu Hanyan’s control, transformed from a wild bull into a docile dairy cow. The Little Fairy had a stable driving style, completely opposite to that of Duanmu Yunji, the Capital City Great Cat. The Little Fairy could actually drive fast, but she knew when to speed up and when to slow down, without any flashy maneuvers.
Wait. This...feels like describing something else.
As for Duanmu Yunji? She was a fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged beauty who loved to speed.
Before long, Liu Hanyan drove Luofeng to a Huntun shop. The vehicle slowly came to a halt.
"Big King, this place’s Huntun are internet famous. Their chili oil Huntun are incredibly delicious, and they use genuine fresh shrimp stuffing!" Liu Hanyan explained.
"You’ve made a video here?" Luofeng’s hand rested on her long legs, but he wasn’t up to any mischief, just lightly caressing them. Since it was only that, Liu Hanyan didn’t mind and focused on driving.
Liu Hanyan nodded. "I came here once during a live stream, but I never made a dedicated video. They don’t allow filming of their stuffing ingredients, so I couldn’t make that episode!"
Clearly, the stuffing ingredients were their secret. Otherwise, wouldn’t people start copying them?
Soon, Liu Hanyan found a parking spot. The two of them got out and ordered two bowls, which were served within minutes.
Luofeng started to taste his. It was indeed delicious. The dry chili powder was fragrant without being overly spicy, and it complemented the flavors perfectly.
[DING! Congratulations Host, you’ve tasted delicious food and received a random gift package reward!]
Luofeng chose to open it immediately.
But he hoped it wasn’t any ’exquisite experience’ this time. It seemed to him that with the Little Fairy, such things weren’t necessary. After all, she had said her defensive stats were maxed out; she didn’t need it. Everyone knows there are days when a girl’s defense is at a champion level, completely impregnable. And even so, Brother Feng had his own ways; he knew what to do. Was there any need to teach Luofeng how to handle things?
[Congratulations Host, you have received 1 million Huya Coins!]
[Given that the Host’s account is currently being managed by his girlfriend, Liu Hanyan, these Huya Coins will be temporarily held by the System!]
Not bad. The System was still quite considerate. Would Liu Hanyan be scared to death if it suddenly awarded 1 million Huya Coins while she was managing the account?
"The taste is really quite good!" Luofeng said honestly. Since he had received a reward, it meant the food must genuinely be delicious; otherwise, the System wouldn’t have given one.
Liu Hanyan lowered her voice and said, "Apart from the price being a bit expensive, everything else is pretty good!"
A normal bowl of Huntun would cost about twelve to fifteen yuan. Even though things were a bit more expensive in Shanghai, places like street stalls wouldn’t be too pricey. And this place? It cost almost thirty yuan a bowl. Indeed, it was a bit expensive.
"Barely acceptable, it could be considered value for money!" Luofeng gave his appraisal. "If the price were around 25 yuan, I think it would be perfect. After all, they use fresh shrimp stuffing, so it’s normal for it to be a bit more expensive!"
After the two finished eating, Liu Hanyan drove again. Due to some traffic congestion, it was around 10:30 by the time they arrived at the Dahua Wutong Large Flat project. This Large Flat project was called Lan Jingyuan.
The bright yellow Lamborghini parked directly in front of the Sales Department. As Luofeng and Liu Hanyan got out of the car and walked toward the Sales Department, the security personnel respectfully saluted them.
Lan Jingyuan, as a prominent Large Flat project in the area, was quite lively. Of course, it might also have been because it was Friday and there were more people house hunting. Inside, there were over a dozen men in suits, accompanied by their mistresses or wives, looking at apartments. Those who looked to be in their fifties bringing along twenty-year-olds were either sugar daddies or had them as mistresses. Married? Wishful thinking.
Of course, even though their act was convincing, Luofeng could tell at a glance that those people were all part of the astroturfing. In the entire Sales Department, probably only he and Liu Hanyan were genuine customers.
Luofeng just wanted to say, if they were going to hire such good actors, why couldn’t those people use a bit more brainpower in their setup? Fifty-year-old uncles paired with twenty or thirty-year-old mistresses? What kind of uncle would bring them to buy a Large Flat? Shouldn’t they be buying small apartments to gift them? Does money grow on trees? So unrealistic! But it didn’t matter to him, since he was buying it to live in.
It was like those many luxury cars with a plethora of problems; some rich folks still bought them. And then others would criticize them for being naive or question their intelligence? Please. Did people really think those who could afford such cars didn’t know about their problems? What some considered problems, for those tycoons, was simply a case of ’a thousand gold pieces can’t buy my happiness.’ For instance, one might think that buying a top-of-the-line Tesla S for a landed price of one million yuan wasn’t as good as getting a Porsche Cayenne, or a BMW X6 or X7, or something similar. But what one needed to understand was that those who could afford a Tesla definitely had more than one car at home; the Tesla might just have been something new they were trying out in the new energy vehicle space. After all, the acceleration of new energy cars is indeed fierce.
"Hello, I’m Su Xiaolin, a female salesperson from Lan Jingyuan!" a female salesperson greeted them politely. The other salespeople looked on enviously.
Although Luofeng and Liu Hanyan were quite young, Luofeng was dressed in designer brands, costing tens of thousands in total, and he was wearing a Patek Philippe wristwatch. Although Liu Hanyan wasn’t dressed head-to-toe in extravagant luxury, the LV bag she carried slung across her body said it all. Besides, when people arrived in a Lamborghini, who would have bothered to scrutinize their clothes?
Luofeng then asked, "What types of units do you have?"
Su Xiaolin politely replied, "We have four unit types here. Type A has a floor area of 170 square meters, with a net area of 147 square meters, three bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms, and one study. Type B’s area is 240..."
Su Xiaolin hadn’t finished introducing when Luofeng interrupted, "Just tell me the largest unit!"
If he was going to buy, he’d buy the best. The Little Fairy deserved the best he could buy for her.
