Chapter 549: Perhaps It Just Doesn't Catch My Eye?

~8 min read 1,406 words

"Why think so much? Eat first, don't go hungry, and get some sleep after you're done." Chen Xun draped a light jacket over her, then handed her the chopsticks.

Inside was noodles, with an egg poached in it.

An Yinan's eyes lit up, "You made this?"

Seeing this standard side dish, she began to say with a grin.

Chen Xun rubbed the corner of his mouth, "Yes."

An Yinan, who originally had no appetite, gave him face and finished it all...

Not to mention, after so many years of practice, Xunge's noodle-cooking skill was absolutely top-notch; whether it was the chewiness or the flavor, it was perfected.

It was the best noodles she had ever eaten.

An Yinan curled up on the bed for a long while longer, then changed her clothes and walked out.

"Nan, where are you planning to go?" Han Xiao and Zhang Cheng lived in the guest room, and he could quickly execute whatever plans Nan had for the day.

An Yinan rubbed her brow, "Have the houses been found?"

Han Xiao nodded and went back to his room to fetch some documents, "I've selected a few locations. Whether it's the layout, price, or distance, they are the most suitable. However, I've scheduled to view the houses this afternoon. Would Nan like to go take a look?"

Previously, he had intended to go himself, confirm the houses, and then let Nan go see them.

Now, seeing how concerned Nan was, he just asked.

"Okay." An Yinan nodded.

Many things in Hong Kong were scarce goods on the Mainland. Although she wasn't short on money now, she wanted to find useful items to take back for her grandmother and the others.

In the afternoon, as Han Xiao drove, he introduced the shopping malls on this side, the supermarkets on that side, where the wealthy district was, and whose territory that was; in short, he acted as a living map...

"The houses here have just been completed. The location is good, and it's very close to the Exchange, making it convenient to go back and forth." Han Xiao drove to the first place.

"I am Han Xiao, I have an appointment to view the house." Only Han Xiao spoke; the others remained silent.

It was mainly because their accents hadn't been practiced yet.

They were a bit awkward.

Every time An Yinan viewed a house, she would raise some questions. With her fluent English and perfect British accent, believe it or not, it seemed like there were discounts for buying houses?

The price Han Xiao had negotiated was actually talked down quite a bit more by An Yinan.

Han Xiao stood to the side, dumbfounded. Was this the power of Nan?

"Pleasure doing business." Until... Nan paid the money and took the keys...

Han Xiao finally came back to his senses.

"Nan..., shouldn't we compare a few more?" Han Xiao had planned to visit five housing developments today. As it turned out, Nan bought one directly at the very first one. Was there any need to visit the rest?

An Yinan looked at him and said, puzzled, "Continue."

In these three days of busyness, the money she spent on the buildings had long since been earned back.

Moreover, the residential complex just now was a feng shui treasure trove in Hong Kong in later generations. It was said that a large number of Jindou were discovered in that fountain. Whether it was a scheme by the developer or if it was actually true...

None of that mattered. What mattered was that this feng shui treasure land would skyrocket in value, directly soaring to several million per unit...

It was dozens of times the purchase price.

She hadn't expected that the first complex Han Xiao brought her to would be this one.

So she was very decisive... She had originally planned to buy two units, but after picking through them here, as long as the lighting was good and the layout was good, she took them all directly.

"..." Han Xiao watched Nan buy houses, his heart thumping. Was this buying houses? It was just like buying groceries.

Even when buying groceries, one would pick and choose, right? Nan didn't even look at the houses; many were decided directly after looking at the floor plans and the scale models.

With his trembling heart, trembling hands, and twitching mouth, he started the car, took a deep breath, and then drove off steadily.

"This is the second complex." Just as Han Xiao was about to enter, An Yinan frowned.

This place...

It was also very famous in later generations.

It wasn't for any other reason, just the developer's issues, which would lead to many disputes.

"Let's change it, go to the third one. No need to go in and look at this one." An Yinan made a prompt decision and turned to get back in the car.

"Oh, ah?" Han Xiao was stunned, but obediently got in the car.

"That, Nan, is this place no good?" He had done a lot of homework to buy houses. For so many years before, he had only bought one small unit in Hong Kong. Had this recent spree of buying houses made him a bit arrogant?

An Yinan saw his cautious look. How could she tell him? Tell him these houses would have disputes later? Tell him these houses would have trouble later?

None of that would work!

"Well, perhaps it just doesn't catch my eye?" An Yinan thought for a moment and said.

Han Xiao's pupils suddenly shook, and the car slowed down even more. Fine, whatever Nan says goes.

When they arrived at the third place, An Yinan didn't say anything. She took a look at the location and the plan, and for the rest, she let Han Xiao make the decisions.

The first two locations were unavoidable.

For the later two developments, she basically bought one unit per development. The houses were plain and simple, but they could accommodate so many people separately without being too conspicuous.

"Keep the keys together, and later give them to Chen Xun so he can arrange them uniformly." An Yinan said directly.

Han Xiao immediately agreed. He had never been assigned to a company, nor did he have any specific tasks. Previously, Nan had him busy in Pengcheng.

Later, a phone call had him start buying houses in Hong Kong and arranging identities.

His position was always changing, but Nan was very good to all of them, so he didn't think too much about it; he just had to work hard.

Monday, eight o'clock, the Stock Market opened.

"How could it be like this! The market is rising? Rise, damn it!" A man went crazy, looking at the data on the Stock Market, wishing he were dead.

Lu Xiaoli looked at An Yinan, his admiration for the Madam growing even deeper.

And Liangzai, inside the Main Hall, seeing the data on the Stock Market, he sat directly on the floor. That was close...

If it hadn't been for Li Zai's reminder, he absolutely, definitely would not have cleared his position on the stocks he had been eyeing.

If he hadn't cleared his positions, then among those jumping off buildings today, he would definitely have been one of them.

"Rise! Give me back my money!" The man who had previously mocked the two of them went mad, and there were quite a few such people in the Exchange every day; the security guards coldly threw the person out.

Even with walls that were soundproof, the enormous roars and chaotic footsteps could still be heard by the people in the Small Hall.

"No matter the time, do not let yourself walk into a dead end," An Yinan said indifferently.

Perhaps she was speaking to the people beside her, or perhaps she was reminding herself.

However, the people around her all fell into deep thought.

Today, the Small Hall was exceptionally quiet; no one spoke, and An Yinan wrote down note after note as several positions were cleared, with large sums of money flowing into the Trading Card.

Then several more positions were entered, and the money that had just flowed into the card seemed as if it weren't money at all, just spent away like that.

The Comrades who used to be shocked were now no longer dizzy, their hands no longer shook, and their hearts no longer pounded.

Just at this moment...
