Chapter 105: Preparing to Buy a Villa in Jing Shi

Immortal Fairy Sister, I, who am now at the sixth layer of Qi Refining, can already use simple techniques, such as Sword Control Technique and Dust-Clearing Technique, etc. I have also learned two cultivation methods: one is Overlord Fist, and the other is Fireball.

I recently plan to study formations and alchemy; the cave dwellings provided by the sect to disciples actually have little security, but if I set up formations around the cave dwelling, I can know in advance when there is any movement.

Moreover, alchemy; my Wood-Fire Dual Spiritual Root seems suitable for alchemy, and if I can become an alchemist, I can be self-sufficient in medicinal pills.

Ye Fan actually thinks quite simply: studying formations is to have self-defense capability, while studying alchemy is entirely to serve the Immortal Fairy Sister.

Although he didn't ask, the Immortal Fairy Sister is certainly not an alchemist.

If he can quickly learn alchemy, then in the future all the medicinal pills the Immortal Fairy Sister needs will be refined by him.

Lin Meng listened to Ye Fan's words, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.

Knowing that cultivation is the path to omnipotence, yet when she actually hears those terms that only appear in cultivation novels, Lin Meng still can't help but let her mind wander.

Alchemy Technique is good; you should study it well. The status of an alchemist should not be low. Sword Control Technique also needs to be practiced well; it's best to find a movement technique manual to go with it, as in critical moments these are life-saving measures.

Ye Fan took note seriously; this must be the Immortal Fairy Sister's experienced advice, and also her high expectations for him.

"Immortal Fairy Sister, Ye Fan will surely study diligently and will not disappoint your expectations."

After obtaining the Spirit Testing Stone, Lin Meng did not immediately perform the spiritual root test.

She was unsure whether this process would cause any disturbance and attract attention.

To be absolutely safe, she firmly could not test her spiritual root in the hotel.

Her cousin's earlier words reminded her that she should buy a villa with greater privacy.

Coincidentally, early this morning Ye Chenjing transferred the remuneration from the Stone Gambling Convention to her account, a full sixty million.

Lin Meng immediately prepared to go look at houses.

She didn't understand the real estate market in Jing Shi, especially villas, so she requested outside help, Sun Yao.

Sun Yao was assisting Ye Chenjing in convening a group meeting at the Ye Clan Group when he received Lin Meng's message; he immediately left Ye Chenjing and hurried to the hotel where Lin Meng was staying.

The other assistants beside Ye Chenjing had never seen Assistant Sun abandon General Manager Ye and leave work midway.

Looking at General Manager Ye's calm expression, he seemed not to mind at all.

One of the informed people couldn't help but whisper:

"You don't know yet? Brother Sun Yao told me he was packaged and sold by General Manager to a Miss Lin as an assistant, with priority even over our General Manager."

Upon hearing this, everyone else was greatly shocked.

"Miss Lin? What background does she have to make our General Manager treat her so specially?"

"Do you still remember what the old chairman said about that unilateral engagement? I suspect it's related to that Miss Lin."

"…"

Sun Yao quickly drove himself to the hotel entrance and became Lin Meng's dedicated driver.

Lin Meng was not polite either; sitting in the back seat, she got straight to the point:

"Assistant Sun, I want to buy a villa today; do you have any recommendations?"

Sun Yao, without turning his head upon hearing this, replied: "Miss Lin wants to buy a house? What exactly are your requirements?"

While communicating with Lin Meng, he quickly typed a few lines on his phone while waiting for the red light.

"Boss, Miss Lin wants to buy a villa; any ideas?"

After sending the message to Ye Chenjing, Sun Yao continued to drive while communicating.

Lin Meng thought for a moment and said:

"If talking about specific requirements, ideally the surroundings shouldn't be too noisy, privacy should be sufficient, a villa with low building density; as for price, I can accept up to one hundred million."

She is now also a person with net worth over a hundred million; besides, she has no shortage of ways to make money, spending a hundred million on a villa solely her own also counts as unlocking a minor life achievement.

Sun Yao reported each of these requirements to Ye Chenjing one by one.

Ye Chenjing was originally holding a meeting in the conference room, but the phone placed upside down on the table suddenly rang a few times.

Just as everyone thought General Manager Ye would put away his phone and not allow anything to disturb the meeting, General Manager Ye instead picked up his phone in front of everyone, stared at it for a while, and actually replied to the other party.

Knowing that General Manager Ye had explicitly forbidden anyone from pulling out phones during company meetings, the result today was that he himself broke the rule.

Just how big a matter, or how important a person, could cause General Manager Ye to personally break the rule he himself set?

Soon, Sun Yao received Ye Chenjing's reply.

Looking at that familiar address in the chat box, Sun Yao couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

General Manager Ye's little thoughts are really impossible to hide; this is him wanting to be neighbors with Miss Lin.

"What's wrong, Assistant Sun?"

"How did this guy suddenly start laughing so nervously?"

Sun Yao quickly composed himself and replied with a light smile:

"Miss Lin, rest assured; I already have roughly several suitable options in mind; we'll go check them one by one."

Lin Meng nodded and let Sun Yao take her to several villa districts.

After looking at several vacant villas for sale, either the location wasn't great, or the privacy didn't meet the standard.

"Let's look elsewhere."

Lin Meng felt a bit disappointed; indeed buying a house is not a simple matter, her requirements are also relatively high, and mature developments on the market rarely have vacancies; perhaps she should give up on Jing Shi and look at other nearby cities.

Returning to Yun Cheng would also be fine; there is a Fifth Master in Yun Cheng's territory, which also counts as having an acquaintance nearby, making things more reassuring to handle.

Just as Lin Meng was pondering, Sun Yao felt the time was right and said to Lin Meng:

"Miss Lin, actually there is another property; all aspects are quite good and should fully meet your requirements, except..."

Lin Meng's heart stirred, "Just what?"

Sun Yao thought and said:

"It's just that this villa was purchased early on by our General Manager; if you want to buy it, you'll probably have to shed some blood."

Lin Meng heard this and couldn't help rolling her eyes, but upon further thought, a house that Ye Chenjing would take a liking to should be quite good.

If it bleeds, let it bleed.

"Take me to have a look."

As Lin Meng finished speaking, Sun Yao immediately drove her there in a jolting manner.

Half an hour later, they arrived at a peninsula villa.

Indeed, as Sun Yao said, this place is very private; there is only one road into the villa, and the entire villa area is built on an island.

Moreover, each villa is separated by just the right amount of greenery and space, so neighbors do not disturb each other.

"This place is indeed nice, but judging by the looks, the price probably isn't cheap, right?"

Sun Yao nodded and slowly extended three fingers.

"Back when General Manager Ye bought it, he spent three hundred million."

Lin Meng was speechless; it was over budget.

But since we've come, we should at least take a look.

Sun Yao quickly brought her to the front of that villa; it had a modern decor, front and back gardens surrounding it, and the underground space offered even greater privacy.

Lin Meng's heart stirred; she was about to set a time to meet Ye Chenjing for a talk, when she saw another villa fifty meters ahead.

"Whose is this? The spacing here is clearly spacious; there shouldn't be a second villa within fifty meters, so why are these two so close?"

Sun Yao immediately said:

"That household is almost unoccupied; Miss Lin can completely ignore them."

Actually, that unit also belongs to the Ye Family, but it's Ye Chenyu's; initially the two brothers each got one unit.

But after today, whether it will still belong to Ye Chenyu is hard to say…
