North American Rough Police: Starting from the Los Angeles Patrol

When Locke returned home, Marianne was sitting at the dining table telling Li Bo about his rescue of people in the water today. There was also the check given by Love Hogwarts on the table.

Marianne looked at him in surprise, "Didn't you say you wouldn't come back?"

Li Bo looked him up and down. He was very proud in his heart, but he complained: "Can you do less dangerous things like this in the future? You really think you are superhero!"

Locke poured himself a glass of water first. He left in a hurry and was a little thirsty. After he drank the water, he said seriously to Marian and Li Bo: "I have decided not to rent a house. I plan to buy a house. Todd , I have..."

"Buying a house? This sounds like a good decision..."

Marian interrupted Locke's words, was stunned for a moment, pushed the check on the table in front of him, and said with a smile: "In the words of your father, this check hasn't even warmed up when I put it here!"

She shrugged and said, "Well, this is your reward. You can control it, but we need to see your choice first..."

"..."

Locke was startled. He had no intention of taking back the money!

Li Bo frowned and said subconsciously: "This is not a good time to buy a house. Bank interest rates are on the high side..."

He pushed the computer in front of Locke and said, "Which house have you chosen? Let's take a look first!"

It seems that the first problem is not money, but to convince Marianne and Li Bo first.

Locke opened the real estate website he was looking at before on Google, searched for Cortina Community F-10-09, and soon the house information popped up.

He turned the computer screen to Li Bo and Marianne, "This is the building..."

Li Bo and Marian got together to look at the house information. When they saw the area and price, they both frowned. They thought Locke would choose a house worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, so they didn't take it too seriously, but they didn't want to , he wants to buy a mansion.

The two looked at each other, and Marianne asked seriously: "Locke, are you serious?"

"Of course!"

Locke nodded and said: "Well, I know this villa very well. Do you remember the last time Anna was kidnapped? We handled an illegal detention and murder case that night? This villa is the scene of the crime. We are in this villa. Five corpses were dug up from the villa and two survivors were rescued. The criminal, the owner of the villa, will face life imprisonment. This villa is now on sale at a 6% discount..."

When Li Bo heard that the house was the scene of a crime, where people died and bodies were buried, he became even more opposed. He shook his head quickly and said: "No, Locke, there is no need for our family to buy such a house..."

Locke spread his hands and said: "Todd, there is no problem at all. I don't care about this. Don't forget my identity. I am a COP. How could I be afraid of this? I have seen this villa because the original owner is a builder. , so both the design and decoration are top-notch, even better than our home. In Chinese terms, this is simply a mistake, and I am confident that the price will be reduced to less than 400 million..."

Li Bo's face darkened, "Locke, you don't realize the seriousness of this matter. This kind of unclean house will bring bad luck. Besides, I don't think you need to..."

Marianne quickly used the computer to check the location and housing prices of the Cortina community. After pondering for a while, she persuaded: "Hey, dear, why don't we go take a look at this house and then discuss it?"

Li Bo turned his head, his face full of disbelief, "Are you crazy? You are also fooling around with him!"

Marian put her hand on Li Bo's thigh and comforted: "Dear, I know there are many taboos in China, and there are also taboos in the United States, but we should believe Locke, he has grown up, and this is his choice. So. , I suggest that we should go and take a look, more importantly, it is Locke who lives here, not us. And don’t forget that we haven’t found any large tax deductions this year..."

She tapped the check on the table again, "And this! It's also subject to tax deduction..."

Li Bol was stunned for a moment, breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Locke and said, "Sorry, Locke, your mother is right, no matter what, we should go and take a look first..."

"It's okay, Dad, I believe you will approve my choice after reading it!"

Locke actually didn't quite understand why Li Bo had such a big reaction. He just had people die and bodies buried.

Seeing that Li Bo had calmed down, Marian continued: "I just learned about the housing prices in this community. The price of this villa is indeed much lower than that of similar villas. Excluding the factors mentioned by Locke, the price/performance ratio is indeed very high..."

Li Bo nodded and said: "Okay, let's go and take a look. If we really decide, I will design an optimal housing loan model..."

Marianne immediately called the real estate agent and asked when she could view the house. Unexpectedly, the real estate agent said that it could be done now. He was currently in the Cortina community.

She turned to look at Li Bo and Locke and said, "Okay, let's go there now!"

Locke blinked, this efficiency was too fast.

Do I still need to talk about my money?

It sounds like Marian and Li Bo are preparing to avoid taxes!

……

When Locke came to the Cortina community again, he felt completely different. He didn't take a good look at this community last time because he was in a hurry to find Anna Davis and Nathan.

It is indeed a luxury community, whether it is greening or planning, it is very comfortable.

Marian and Li Bo in the back row are also observing the environment of the community. In the United States, the attributes of the community are factors that must be considered when buying a house, and in many cases it is even the biggest consideration.

In the United States, many ethnic groups are also clustered together in different areas, such as Chinese communities and Korean communities.

The larger ones include white communities and black communities.

If a middle-class and above white community slowly has more blacks and Latinos, the prices of houses in this community will drop and white people will slowly move out.

柯蒂娜社区大部分都是b-22-36这样的独栋别墅，面积在240-650平方米，均价在250-350万美刀左右，所以这里是名副其实的豪宅社区。

而像f-10-09和h-10-06这种超过1500平方米的豪宅，这里加起来也才不到15栋。

Marianne said to Li Bo: "Todd, it looks good here. Except for the location, it's not much worse than Beverly Hills..."

Li Bo nodded and said: "Now I have some doubts that the price is for fishing!"

Locke came to the door of F-10-09 with ease. After scanning this place with a detection card last time, the route of Cortina Community was the same as it was engraved in his mind.

There is also a silver-gray Mercedes-Benz e10 parked at the door of f-09-300. It should be a real estate agent's car.

Before getting off the bus, Marianne solemnly reminded Locke and Li Bo: "Remember, just follow the strategy we just discussed and play your role. I just checked that this real estate agent is a Chinese, Todd. Your role is very important..."

Locke was a little speechless. He was just buying a house. Why would it be so complicated?

But seeing that Marianne was in high spirits, he could only play with her.
