Chapter 25 We're Rich Now
Chapter 25 We have money now
"Two things", An Feng pointed to the apartment: "Mr. Zhou wants to entrust you to undertake the legal business of house purchase and sale, which is this house. As for me, I also think the surrounding environment is good. I like this street and especially like Unit 11... Well, why is Unit 11? Because Unit 11 has only two households, and one unit has only two households, it is really quiet.
I like to climb upstairs and play. Since there are only two families in the entire 11th Unit, a room is three floors. I like this layout, I like to own many houses... Yes, I know I am underage, so the house I purchased needs to be managed. If you are trustworthy, I can also entrust the house to you.
Yes, there are no properties for sale in Unit 11 yet, so I need a lawyer to keep an eye on it. Once they want to sell the property, I hope you will contact them in time..."
...
When Dr. Zhou went home, he saw a small truck parked at the door of his house. Argyle was moving things from the car alone. The goods in the car were very mixed, including food, drink, bedding, etc., as well as decorative lamps needed for Christmas, etc. Dr. Zhou stopped at the door of his house, but considering that Argyle couldn't ask anything, he had to shake his head and walk into his house.
The elevators in the corridor are very old, like the hoist that transports bricks, tiles and cement on domestic construction sites. Such an elevator is not completely closed. When two iron fences are pulled out, the elevator begins to operate, and the sound of running is more like a hoist...Dr. Zhou didn't know the truth in an instant.
Sitting in the simple elevator, Dr. Zhou staggered to the top floor. The left hand of the elevator was his own rented house. The lawyer was waiting for him in the room. Maybe it won’t take long before he could buy this house... Hey, why does this lawyer seem to be having fun with An Feng?
When Dr. Zhou returned home, An Feng had already done everything he should do. After a while, he had convinced Steven Edmund to accept his employment and become his fund manager - in this way, An Feng's property could be completely controlled by himself without the permission of the legal guardian.
Next, Steven will come forward to discuss the transfer of custody with Argyle's aunt, and help An Feng pay attention to the sale of the eleven-unit house, and help An Feng handle some chores... The lawyer's professional ethics is to keep the secrets for the client. So An Feng doesn't say anything about these things, and Steven will not speak to Dr. Zhou.
In Dr. Zhou's opinion, although this lawyer was young, he was very straightforward in doing things. He spent a few minutes checking Dr. Zhou's ID, signed the entrustment agreement readily, and left without stopping. So much so that Dr. Zhou still felt unbelievable when he waited for the other party to leave: "Is this over? That's so simple?"
An Feng was purely idle, and he was also joking: "What's wrong? Are you not used to this kind of life without a seal being stamped?"
Dr. Zhou smiled. At this time, Argyle walked in with the last box of ingredients. The delivery shop staff followed him and stuffed it directly to Dr. Zhou with the delivery order in his hand. He probably felt that An Feng was too young and could not be the headmaster. "Sir, you have all the goods you want. Do you need to count them?"
Dr. Zhou was a little surprised when he received the order: "Oh, Fengfeng, when I first entered the door, I wanted to say that Lan Yu greeted a few international students who had nowhere to go and was preparing to come here for fun together. I think we are new to us, so it is always good to know more people. Besides, holidays are just to be lively, so I invited them to play. Haha, I was about to tell this, but I didn't expect you to go to the supermarket to buy things... "
Dr. Zhou looked down at the order of goods and was slightly surprised: "It's so expensive, what have you bought?... Forget it, let's do it, I'll pay the money."
Dr. Zhou said these words in Chinese. After saying that, he changed to English to thank the deliveryman for his service. He felt very painful when he gave tips. He gave 15% of the consumption as usual. An Feng bought something worth 4,000 pounds, and the tip was over 600 yuan. This... he did nothing! The goods were all done by Argyll.
"Do you think I need to give him full consumption?" Dr. Zhou asked An Feng in Chinese: "Can you not give it?"
"Just give him the fare," An Feng replied in English: "This is the deliveryman in their store. The tip of a hundred pounds includes the fare and the service fee. This is not in a bar and restaurant. We don't need to tip according to the bar and restaurant standards. Besides, his service is not good, so I'm very dissatisfied."
This is a guy who is familiar with the inside story - the deliveryman rolled his eyes quietly, took away the payment, and left.
Dr. Zhou looked through the things An Feng bought, boxes of canned food, boxes of seasonings, slabs, underwear, socks, sets of pots and pans, as well as various detergents, as well as a large mattress, plus a box of red wine and cigarettes... He chuckled: "People often say that 'a poor family is worth a lot of money'. We just made up for the incompleteness of our family, and it cost 4,000 pounds... it's pounds!"
After saying this, Dr. Zhou quickly added: "However, with these things, the holidays are enough... Hehe, Lan Yu said they will bring vegetables, and they will do it themselves, so we can just eat it."
An Feng felt that he would give Dr. Zhou a vaccination first, so that Lan Yu could save him from coming over and discover the true value of those things, which aroused Dr. Zhou's surprise and suspicion.
"I bought these things according to the product sales list." An Feng continued in a relaxed tone of "This is not worth mentioning": "I think, since everyone likes to buy these goods, they must be good things, at least the most popular in the UK. Uncle Zhou, I won't meet you with this little money."
An Feng did not tell Dr. Zhou that he was looking at the best-selling luxury goods list.
"But is it necessary?" Dr. Zhou was a little confused: "We plan to rent out this house. Is it necessary to change such good cooking utensils?"
An Feng replied seriously: "It's a Christmas discount. These things are very cheap. Even if we can't use them here, we can take them to Leeds."
Oh, Dr. Zhou understands.
The joy that follows seems to have nothing to do with the children.
In the evening, a group of adults came to this temporary rented hut, drinking and having fun. Their program was not as good as children, and An Feng did not even show his face, so he took Argyel to the hotel.
This adult joy lasted for several days, and it was not until New Year's Day celebrated, and it stopped. During this period, Argyle's custody transfer procedures had been successfully transferred. Argyle's nominal guardian became Steven's lawyer. The lawyer will arrange for Argyle to go to boarding school in Leeds, and the tuition fee will be paid by a mysterious fund...
For An Feng and Dr. Zhou, during the holidays, the "Christmas collapse" of the Soviet Union was the biggest holiday gift. This meant that the strategy of "short the ruble" ended perfectly. After implementing this news, Dr. Zhou fell into irresistible ecstasy. He immediately notified his family that he could pursue his girlfriend (actually his wife) to go abroad...
But these joys still have nothing to do with An Feng.
When the first ray of sunshine on New Year's Day rose, An Feng lay on the bed and sighed at the sun in the snow. Argyle was sleeping on the mattress at his feet, and his dream was filled with satisfaction.
It's New Year, An Feng has one year older. And the end of the "Desert Storm" has been over for a year. This means that only one year left before the driver of the golden car was discovered.
Taking away the gold car is a troublesome. In order to cover up the traces of the vehicle, it will take at least half a year of wind and rain...
By doing this, he only has half a year to pick up the goods, and the best pickup time is this summer. Otherwise, he would have seen that huge amount of gold would be unable to start.
Fortunately, after the New Year, the income from "short the Soviet ruble" gradually returned, and An Feng had the start-up capital to dig out treasures. With Argyle's existence, he had a helper. Oh, he also had a lawyer, and he could bypass the guardian through a lawyer and freely control his own money.
But... the child cannot do the trick of digging gold in the desert. The transportation and hiding of goods weighing several tons requires adults to come forward, and he also needs an adult to be a helper. But where can I find an adult who is not greedy, has a strong mouth, and is not curious?
It would be fine for Dr. Zhou. He has begun to integrate into this environment. He will have his own career in the future and it is impossible for him to be with An Feng for a long time. Moreover, for those who know An Feng's extreme background, An Feng himself wants to hide somewhere to avoid being caught by someone one day.
Because of this, An Feng did not actively participate in the adults' Christmas carnival. He hoped to downplay his existence and hoped that Lan Yu and Lan Yu's friends could completely forget him.
He only has half a year to find a coverer and a travel opportunity.
The latter is easy to say, but the former is difficult.
Not to mention that when facing a huge amount of gold, the accomplices are two children, it is difficult not to be greedy. In the future, when the gold transport vehicle is exposed and the brutal mercenaries flock to the desert to search everywhere, a little bit of wind leaks will attract a large number of bloody killers.
So this helper must be super brave, usually very strict, and can resist loneliness and low-key and not show off... How can such a person fail to do anything? Will he be willing to let a person who can achieve success and fame participate in this matter? Even if he is willing, how much money should he be given to him?
An Feng is very worried.
Fortunately, after the New Year, the exchange reopened. It comforted An Feng's heart slightly. Originally, An Feng thought that this speculation would have a 70-fold return, but he did not expect that the ruble fell terriblely and miserably, and countless "bulls" had already begun to jump off the building. In the end, An Feng's profit exceeded the forecast: he and Dr. Zhou each received more than one million pounds.
This money should be enough for excavation funds.
As soon as the money was obtained, Dr. Zhou seemed very excited: "Haha, I have watched the movie "Million Pounds" before, and we are really a millionaire now... A house with more than 100,000 pounds, a car with ten thousand pounds, and then, what do you have any suggestions?"
After this hype, Dr. Zhou completely admires An Feng's digital ability.
