American comic: Attack of the Witcher
Chapter 77 Lily and Snape
"Master Xiao, you can talk now."
Fat Bear parked the car on the side of the road, and Lu Xuan slowly said to Xiao Jie.
"I went out to do errands with my friends so early in the morning. I was originally worried that calling you after seven o'clock in the morning would disturb your sweet dreams." Xiao Jie said with a smile on the other end of the phone. At the end, he added: "This is my newly opened number in the island country. I think I will use it for a long time."
Lu Xuan smiled and responded: "I went out to play with my friends last night. I was so high that it lasted until dawn. Now I'm rushing back to sleep."
"Haha, it seems that I picked the right time. Any later will disturb your rest time." Xiao Jie said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
The preface to greeting each other was almost the same. Lu Xuan didn't want to keep Tang Mingrui and the others waiting, so he went straight to the point and said: "Young Master Xiao, Tang Yu has already told you about the Second Young Master, right? I'm really sorry, because I Due to personal reasons, you lost an opportunity to completely suppress the Second Young Master."
"It's okay, it's okay." After hearing what Lu Xuan said, Xiao Jie on the other end of the phone replied in a nonchalant tone: "Originally, he made me anxious and desperate to find a solution, but it was you who stood up and made me feel comfortable. For a while. Now that you let the plan be exposed, he will no longer be able to bring Thirty-six Dihuang Pills back to heaven, and will remain in this stalemate forever. If this situation of public resentment continues, he will die one day. "
"Besides, I have already thought of a new project for him, which will be realized soon. Even if his Thirty-six Dihuang Pills rise again, the benefits will not be as much as my new project." Xiao Jie said on the phone The other end said with a smile, obviously very happy.
"Really?" Lu Xuan chuckled lightly and said, "Then congratulations to Young Master Xiao, congratulations to Young Master Xiao, I wish the new project will prosper, make money, my hands will cramp, and I will completely suppress the Second Young Master."
"Haha, then I'll thank you for your kind words." Xiao Jie said.
"But you should be careful with the Second Young Master. I have been in contact with him and know that he is not as stupid as he appears. He will definitely not sit still and wait for death. He will definitely come up with some new projects during this period." Lu Xuan reminded kindly.
He said why Xiao Jie was so happy today. He always laughed and looked particularly refreshed on the phone. It turned out that he had found a new project, and it was probably something whose earning power far exceeded Thirty-Six Dihuang Pills.
No wonder Xiao Jie not only didn’t say a word of blame when his new project plan to suppress Second Young Master Xiao was exposed, but he didn’t even use the usual cold tone of a superior-subordinate conversation. It turned out that he had encountered such a happy event.
"I know that he will definitely set up a new project next. He will not just watch Sanliuwei Dihuang Pills being suppressed. I have been on guard against him. Don't worry, his new project is making money, and it is far from enough. You may earn more than me." Xiao Jie said confidently on the other end of the phone. It was obvious that he was sure of suppressing Second Young Master Xiao in the future.
"Then I'll congratulate Young Master Xiao and congratulate Young Master Xiao. When you make money, please invite me to take a bath," Lu Xuan joked with a smile.
"It's necessary." Xiao Jie vowed, and then said: "I didn't win this new project after drinking in the middle of the night last night. I couldn't help but pick up the phone to inform you and Tang early the next morning. Yu? I heard that you are in Shengjing City. I will go back to Shengjing in a few days. Then I will invite you to the most noble place in Shengjing City. It is more noble than heaven and earth. I guarantee you have never been there. It is simply rich. You can enjoy all kinds of services”
"Master Xiao, it can't be that underground club called a tavern, right?" Lu Xuan lowered his voice and deliberately said a sentence that was not originally at his level.
His words have profound meaning, and they are intended to be a preface to the next topic. Otherwise, if your superiors tell you to go to a place you have never been to, and you stupidly come forward and say that you have been, it will be a slap in the face. The superior is very shameless.
"What, how do you know that place? Maybe you just came out of there?" Xiao Jie asked with obvious surprise on the other end of the phone when he heard Lu Xuan mention the underground club.
"Yes, I just came out of that place. My friend took me there last night. I just arrived at Xiujiang Road in the suburbs." Lu Xuan responded with a smile.
"Okay, it seems like you have pretty good connections. You've even been to a place like this. How about fun? Do you feel particularly refreshed?" Xiao Jie asked with a smile.
Lu Xuan nodded, and then said what he wanted to say: "It was quite fun, but it caused a little trouble and offended a guy with a big background, which spoiled the fun."
"That's it." Xiao Jie responded meaningfully on the other end, and then asked: "Our Xiao family's headquarters is also in Shengjing, and I often live here and have some connections. Can you tell me who it is? Let’s see if I can help you settle it.”
"A self-righteous guy thought he had some rights and could disrespect others casually, so we had some trouble with him. His name is Ouyang Feng. He seems to have a very high status in the club, and many people are afraid of him."
Lu Xuan pretended not to know Ouyang Feng's identity or the true background of the Xiao family, and answered like a fool.
"What?" After hearing what Lu Xuan said, Xiao Jie on the other end screamed in surprise again, as if he had discovered a new world and shouted: "Is it true that you offended Ouyang Feng in the underground club?"
Although he was surprised, there was no fear or even fear in his words. It was obvious that he had some background behind it, otherwise he would not be a strong rival for Ouyang Feng in his pursuit of Nian Yan.
"It's really Mr. Xiao, many people saw it at that time." Lu Xuan nodded and said.
"Tell me how you offended him." Xiao Jie asked on the other end.
"Ah."
Lu Xuan smiled lightly, and then said: "It's okay. He asked me to come over to drink and be his subordinate. I didn't want to do it, so I turned around and played dice. But he got angry and came over to take over the table where I was playing. As a banker, I won a few games in front of everyone, so I was probably very embarrassed, and I suspected that he might take revenge on me."
"Hahahahaha" Xiao Jie on the other end of the phone couldn't help laughing after hearing this, as if he was very happy. After a while, he calmed down and asked, "That's all." Are there other conflicts and conflicts happening?"
"No more." Lu Xuan responded truthfully. Anyway, countless people in these clubs have seen it. If Xiao Jie wants to find out, he can just ask anyone.
"It's great, it's so great." After hearing Lu Xuan's words, Xiao Jie shouted happily on the other end of the phone: "Do you know that Ouyang Feng and I have had a feud for a long time, and we usually fight to the death when we meet. , as much as you can embarrass the other party, you can basically say that we are enemies for life, and we may still be enemies until you die and go to hell. You made him look embarrassed, which is equivalent to doing me a big favor, I am really happy."
"He is your enemy" Lu Xuan asked pretending not to know.
"Yes." Xiao Jie answered directly, and then said: "Do you know, I originally planned to find you when I come back after negotiating the island country business. Then I planned to invite Ouyang Feng to participate in some jewelry or stone gambling event. At the party, I took the opportunity to let you use your super high stone gambling skills to humiliate him. I didn’t expect that as soon as you had this idea, you took a deep breath on my behalf. I will definitely thank you when I get back."
"Then I'll thank you, Mr. Xiao." Lu Xuan said politely, and deliberately mentioned the matter about Ouyang Feng again, saying, "Then how should I handle the matter that I offended Ouyang Feng?"
"Just pretend that nothing has happened. Leave everything to me. You are mine and he doesn't dare to do anything to you. At most, he will be angry and call a few minions to intimidate you. With your ability If you can't deal with that, which is not an easy matter, I'll send a few experts to follow you around the clock to protect you." Xiao Jie said on the other end of the phone, as if he was vouching for Lu Xuan, silently shouldering the responsibility. This happened.
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome. Since Mr. Xiao is not afraid of him, I can rest assured. I can still handle other small things." Lu Xuan responded with a smile.
He had expected from a long time ago that Xiao Jie would be very happy, and then he would assume all the responsibilities for this matter and block the trouble caused by Ouyang Feng for himself, so he dared to bring it up deliberately.
Ouyang Feng and Xiao Jie have a grudge, and they are evenly matched. This is the constraint that Lu Xuan can use.
Lu Xuan originally didn't want to trouble Xiao Jie, but since they were all working for him, there was no point in troubling each other. Not to mention that the Xiao family was so terrifying. The second young master could mobilize experts at the level of outsiders. As Ouyang, who could rival the two brothers of the Xiao family, Feng, since it's an ancient family, can't we mobilize it?
Lu Xuan knew that with his own ability, it would be extremely difficult to face such an ancient family, a master at the level of an outsider. Any Qi-training master could kill him.
Therefore, after knowing that Xiao Jie and Ouyang Feng had a feud, he had already planned to put Xiao Jie under pressure. Even if the other party didn't call this morning, he would call back in a few days to report the situation.
"That's fine. I'll go back to Shengjing City in a few days. Then I'll ask you to enjoy the fairy-like enjoyment brought by the underground club again." Xiao Jie said on the other end of the phone.
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao." Lu Xuan said politely, and then said: "If there is nothing else, I will hang up first. My friend is still waiting in the car on the roadside."
"Go ahead, go ahead, get some rest early, wait until I get back to talk about anything else." Xiao Jie responded cheerfully.
"Okay, Mr. Xiao, take care. Goodbye." After Lu Xuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
He knew that Xiao Jie would take on a new project today, a new project that could completely turn around and completely suppress Second Young Master Xiao. He must be particularly happy when he heard that he had bullied his old rival.
As for the matter of selling the information to Young Master Xiao in two days, Xiao Jie may have quickly forgotten it. After all, no one would care about something irrelevant.
Unless Xiao Jie didn't find a new project, Sanliuwei Dihuang Pill would turn around again, but this is probably impossible.
"Who can I talk to so happily after such a long time? It can't be my wife or Xiaomi at home."
As soon as Lu Xuan got into the car, Tang Mingrui asked.
Lu Xuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Why don't you drive quickly? I'm a little hungry."
"Okay." Tang Mingrui curled his lips helplessly, knowing that it would be extremely difficult to get words out of someone like Lu Xuan, so he could only stop asking and tell Fat Bear to drive.
"boom boom"
The super power of the Range Rover flew on the suburban roads with sparse traffic. It covered a distance of 20 kilometers in less than ten minutes and arrived at the gate of the xx branch of Shengjing Art College.
Schools established decades ago were located in urban areas and other places with busy traffic. Nowadays, many first-tier cities and even third- and fourth-tier cities have established famous schools in suburban areas with sparse traffic.
Just because the urban area has been congested, both houses and shops selling various products have reached a certain level, resulting in high prices and various inconveniences. More than 90% of the newly developed real estate properties are located close to the city. Far away suburbs.
If a new building is built in such a sparsely populated area, few people will buy it, and most of them will lose money. Therefore, in order to attract people in suburban areas where key buildings are concentrated, they will make deals with famous schools and ask them to open a branch campus nearby, or even the whole building. The school moved here.
Now that the school has moved here, the flow of people will be easier to manage. Students will be asked to go to the new campus when they register for the new semester, or all non-local students will be assigned to the new campus. There are students every year. With students, there will definitely be various businesses coming here, the flow of people will increase, and the houses will not have to worry about selling or renting out.
Some schools even have regulations that prohibit outsiders from attending school unless they have bought a house in the area. Today, 99% of schools near the school district will not allow children to study unless they buy a house. In order to let their children go to prestigious schools, parents have to buy houses at all costs. Real estate has been promoted at once, and it has also alleviated the pressure in urban areas.
Housing prices in Shengjing City have already reached sky-high prices, with prices rising to more than 6 yuan per square meter outside the Sixth Ring Road. However, no matter how expensive this place is, countless people flock here, so they can only continue to expand to the surrounding suburbs.
In the past few years, the price from the urban area to the second and third ring roads, and now the sixth ring road is more than 60,000 yuan. If the poor want to stay here, they can only continue to flock to cheap housing in the suburbs. Now the seventh and eighth ring roads are under planning, and in the future there may be nine and ten ring roads. It's possible to come out.
At this moment, these schools outside the suburbs of Shengjing basically attract people to the newly built real estate projects nearby, and promote the rise in housing prices, attracting more people.
These days, apart from offices, most of the houses in urban areas are bought by real estate speculators. Just look at how many households in those communities turn on the lights at night, but when I asked the sales department, they said they were sold out.
The house is supposed to be for people to live in, but it has been sold to sky-high prices by real estate speculators. The down payment saved by a family of three after years of hard work cannot keep up with the increase in housing prices. Therefore, the poor can only flock to suburban houses more and more. Developers know that suburbs make money and are crazy about suburban housing.
The original house prices in the suburbs of third- and fourth-tier cities were priced at RMB 3,000 to RMB 4,000, but they were also bought in large quantities by real estate speculators in anticipation of price increases. As a result, the prices increased due to the booming sales. In a few years, the prices increased several times, and became unaffordable for the people. house.
If there are too many houses, the prices will go up and they will not be sold. The price and small profits but quick turnover will trigger an economic collapse. After all, most of the funds for developers and real estate speculators come from bank loans, allowing banks to bear all risks and pressures. Once house prices drop, they will suffer huge losses on all their investments. Then they will not be able to repay the loan, the house will be repossessed by the bank, and the bank will definitely lose money if it auctions it off at the current house price.
For example, if the price of a house is 100 square meters, you can borrow 200 million from the bank and pay 100 per month. If the house price suddenly plummets to 4000 square meters, the value of the house will be reduced by half. As real estate depreciates, wage income will decrease. The original yuan to move a brick becomes yuan in one day, and prices will also fall rapidly, but the home buyer still has to repay the bank yuan every month.
With their income reduced, they could not afford to repay the mortgage, so the bank forcibly levied the loan. In order to recover the capital, the bank sold the loan for only 50 yuan based on the current market price. In other words, the loan that was given out was worth yuan and could not be recovered after a loss of yuan.
Therefore, banks and the government will not do such stupid things to lose money. This is why housing prices cannot fall. Once it falls, the national economy will collapse and return to before liberation.
The most suitable house price is 3500 square meters after including all expenses. But as soon as the developer built a building with a cost of 500 million, he took a mortgage loan of 1000 million from the bank, invested the 1000 million in the new building, and borrowed another 2000 million. When building a real estate project, all the risks are left to the banks and the government.
In order to recover costs, banks and the government had no choice but to raise housing prices, and a group of real estate speculators bought the property for 800 million. The real estate speculator group is looking for an appraisal company to evaluate the house to 1500 million, and find a relative or acquaintance to sell it. Relatives went to the bank for a loan of 1500 million to buy this property. After getting back the initial investment of 800 million, I still borrowed 700 million from the bank in vain.
The relatives will definitely not repay the 1500 million to the bank. The property can only be taken away by the bank and the government again. They don't want to lose money, so they can only sell a 2000 million set and flow it into the hands of the next consumer and into the hands of the real consumer. They don't even know how to help the government. How much did you pay for your mistakes?
Real estate began to collapse in 2015. Once the collapse of steel, cement, wood boards, hardware, ceramics and other related industries, it was difficult for them. They were also uncomfortable for other industries involved with them. For example, the price of steel fell, and the prices of hammers, knives, etc. Companies that stock large quantities of cars and ships can only reduce prices and sell at a loss, and eventually go bankrupt.
This is also the reason why countless factories have closed down and workers have lost their jobs in the past two years.
House prices basically maintain the status quo with little increase or decrease. The poor cannot afford high prices, and developers want to make money, so they can only expand to the suburbs desperately, and then the vicious cycle can only continue.
After a big drop, people all over the country followed suit. See more Prestige public account: hhxs665
