317. Chapter 313: Buy 6665
After breakfast, Lanse made a call to William. He wanted to remind William that the situation has changed.
"Wolf Gang people are following Jobaf now. I will arrange some people to follow you later to avoid any accidents."
William was a bit nervous when he heard this. "Whose people are the Wolf Gang?"
"Will they hurt me?"
"They are the Mayor's people. As for whether they will hurt you, I don't know, so I will arrange for people to protect you."
He actually had some premonitions, but he was still... shocked when he heard this answer.
The Mayor controls some gangs. Although William has heard many similar stories, it made him feel incredible when it happened around him.
The Mayor is not an ordinary councilor; he is the ruler of this city, but everything seems very reasonable.
He is not the kind of young man who just came out of school, full of hot blood. He knows very well that this world has white, and it must have black.
The whiter the white, the blacker the black. This is two-sided, and no one can change these.
"Will they hurt me?" he asked.
Lanse could feel that when he asked this question, he was somewhat nervous, but he didn't want to lie to comfort him. "I'm not sure, so I arranged for people to protect you."
"Ethan, that big guy, you know him, he will take people to protect you. It's best to discuss with him when you go in and out."
"Also, you need to learn how to use firearms recently."
William took a deep breath. "Okay, I will prepare, and by the way, actually I can shoot."
Lanse laughed twice. "Shooting and firing are two things, William."
"You will shoot at the target, but you won't necessarily shoot at people. It's best to learn systematically!"
After explaining some things, Lanse hung up the phone. He didn't think Jobaf could defeat William in the election.
Just his cooperation with federal people is enough to make some people who support him abandon him.
Although Imperial people have been discriminated against and bullied in the Federation, Imperial people themselves are relatively united.
Before a strong character appeared, their unity didn't seem to play any role, but now that there is a strong character, this unity will become more and more obvious.
Mr. Jobaf is destroying unity, and he will lose people's support!
After finishing the work here, he took a car to the Baihui Bank and talked to Jonathan about the auction of ownerless assets.
Baihui Bank also has the qualification to participate in this, but Jonathan told Lanse that it cannot be auctioned now.
"It must be the end of the year before the Treasury will count these ownerless assets and arrange a working group to distinguish which assets need to be auctioned and which assets will be left behind."
"If I remember correctly, the Red High Heel case happened this year."
Lanse nodded, and he continued, "Then it will have to wait until February next year at the earliest before the Treasury's list arrives in various places, and then they will take the package for auction."
"If you hope to take it down at the auction, you have to wait."
Lanse heard other meanings in his words. "Then what if I don't go through the Treasury's property auction?"
Jonathan rummaged in the drawer and found a business card, handing it over.
Lanse received it and looked at it. There were not many things on it, a name, two phone numbers.
The name is Richard Jenkins, and the phone number looks like the one from the capital. He then looked up at Jonathan again, with a questioning look on his face.
"This is the chief of the Asset Disposal Office of the State Treasury, who is responsible for the disposal of assets belonging to the Treasury in this state."
"If the house you want is indeed ownerless, then Richard's side will have the file of this house now."
"What you need to do is contact him, and then spend money to buy this house."
"The price will be calculated according to the market price, it won't be too cheap, after all, this is not us operating!"
"And even if it is early next year, it won't be too cheap, because there are many people participating in the auction, and it must be publicized."
This kind of large-scale auction, involving the "income" situation of the Treasury, the bank side will not mess around. They know what can be tampered with and what cannot be tampered with.
By then, there will be many people from all walks of life participating, so there is basically no hope of taking down this house for a few dozen or a few hundred dollars.
Its price can not exceed its market price, and you have to thank God. Sometimes, at the auction, the bidders get angry, and they will get hot-headed and push something to a height it shouldn't be!
Lanse didn't take the business card, but remembered the business card and the number.
Jonathan invited again. "Do you have time this weekend?"
"Shall we go play together?"
This is the second or third time he has invited, and Lanse couldn't refuse. "No problem, what do I need to bring?"
"You might not like fishing, so we will go play golf. You first need a set of clubs, preferably a set of sportswear, and a set of related things."
"You can go to those stores to see these things, and they will recommend what is suitable for you."
"By the way, can you swing?"
Lanse made a joke. "If you mean attacking someone with a golf club, I am very good at it!"
Jonathan couldn't help laughing. "I hope for the first time you don't hit the 'ball' away!"
He paused. "Actually, it doesn't matter if you can or not, just use some strength to hit the ball out. We are just killing time, not competing."
They made an appointment for the time, and then Lanse said goodbye.
After he returned to the office, he immediately dialed this number, and it was connected quickly.
"This is the Asset Disposal Office, I am Richard."
"Mr. Jenkins, hello, I am a friend of Mr. Jonathan from Baihui Bank."
"I know Jonathan, how should I call you?"
"Lanse, Lanse White."
"Mr. White, is there anything I can help with?"
Being able to call, and through the Vice President of the bank, Richard wouldn't look down on Lanse.
He had vaguely heard this name, and he had this feeling. He seemed to have heard it somewhere, so he was also very polite at this time.
With his current social status, it is unlikely that he would have heard the names of those unknown people.
Those who can be mentioned in his social circle are definitely not ordinary people.
"It's like this, Mr. Jenkins, there is a house in the Imperial District of New Jincheng. It has no legal heir, and the last owner didn't leave a will, so it has entered the asset disposal process."
"I want to do some business, I like its location, and hope to buy it from you in advance."
"Of course, I know, this is not an auction, I will buy it at the market price."
Mr. Jenkins on the other end of the phone let Lanse wait for a while after listening, and then he asked his secretary to send the asset disposal list of New Jincheng.
These lists are updated every once in a while. He found this property in a pile of lists on the property page.
"I saw it, the price on the local newspaper is about forty thousand dollars, are you sure you want to buy it?"
Lanse said unhurriedly, "Yes, I confirm I want to do this."
"Then how should I pay you?"
"Transfer, or cash?"
Mr. Jenkins wrote a note with a pen, but it was not for Lanse, but for his secretary. "You can ask Jonathan, he has the account number of the State Treasury Department, you can ask him to transfer it over."
"After the money arrives, I will notify the New Jincheng City Hall, and they will change the information of this property. Is there any problem?"
"No, thank you very much for answering my call, Mr. Jenkins, you helped me a lot!"
Mr. Jenkins laughed softly. "You are a friend of Jonathan, which means you are my friend. Friends helping friends is what should be done!"
Lanse is also a person who likes to make friends. "If you have a chance to come to New Jincheng, please be sure to contact me. I want to entertain you as a host."
"No problem, there will be a chance."
The two exchanged a few more words of nutritionless words and hung up the phone.
He pondered for a while, this Richard Jenkins is a bit useful, he decided to maintain this connection well.
This was the first contact between the two sides. He didn't know much about this person, so he had to talk to Jonathan again.
Forty thousand dollars is just drizzle to Lanse at this time. Soon he called Jonathan and asked him to transfer the money on his behalf, and then by the way notify Mr. Jenkins.
The transfer responsible by the Vice President is naturally very fast, and all transfer processes were completed in less than an hour. Mr. Jenkins didn't expect this Lanse to transfer the money so quickly.
He directly pulled out the file and asked his secretary to contact the New Jincheng City Hall to change the information.
Lanse asked William to find a friend in the City Hall to handle all the documents on his behalf. Now at this time, Lanse's appearance in the City Hall might be considered a provocation by the Mayor.
Whether it is another world or this world, having people, especially having people in the privileged class, is convenient.
For ordinary people, they might need to wait twenty days or even a month or longer for procedures. Under the promotion of these people, it was done in less than a few hours.
People like power and are keen on drilling into the privileged class, which always makes sense!
After getting the proof of ownership of the property, Lanse asked Erwin to get some workers over.
There are many temporary workers at the dock. They are willing to do anything. Some even don't want money. As long as you can give them a little food, they can work for you all day
This world is just this unfair, and it has never been fair.
Under their hard work, this already somewhat dilapidated building is about to take on a different appearance.
An appearance that, in all likelihood, they would never be able to enter.
