Chapter 681: Buy a Villa First!Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Coming out from the airport, Hong Dali and the rest flew towards Shenluo City"s direction.
This Shenluo was indeed very huge. With their speed, they flew for an entire 20 plus minutes, but the buildings in the city were still limitless.
Currently, they had already come to the air territory that truly belonged to Shenluo City. The sky was filled with all kinds of aircraft and mechas. On the ground were people taking a stroll after completing work. Practically every one of them had a robot butler following beside them. There were also quite a number of people carrying their children and strolling. Simply speaking, other than all kinds of advanced technology, there wasn"t much difference from Earth.
This wasn"t a wonder. After all, this was what human society was like. Other than improvements in technology and developments in society, there wasn"t much difference in the activities that humans did.
“Dali, where shall we go next?” On the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, Tang Muxin asked Hong Dali through the communicator. “Are we going to buy a house now?”
“Of course we are. There so many of us here.” Hong Dali laughed and said, “We need a place to stay and rest first.”
Then, Tang Long, who was in his s.p.a.ce watch, said, “The land in this kind of Main city isn"t cheap. I reckon that if you want to buy a villa that can let everyone live in, there won"t be much left of the one million after that.”
“Oh, no fear.” Hong Dali wasn"t in the least concerned. “I am only in charge of spending, not earning!”
“G.o.d…” Tang Long clasped his face. “What kind of master am I following. G.o.d, it"s better for me to just not see what he"s doing so that I won"t be concerned…” Saying so, he went quiet…
After reaching the s.p.a.ce territory of Shenluo City, Hong Dali chose a scenic place to land down. Looking around, he nodded and said, “Let"s just land here, the environment here is not bad.”
The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p stopped and landed down.
This was a living quarter inside Shenluo City. The name of this living quarter was called Bright Suns.h.i.+ne, quite poetic.
Just after they landed, a security guard instantly came up to them. He was as much as three meters tall, skin of grey color, very muscular, and had a long tail. Simply put, he was the type that could shock criminals to death just from his appearance. Coming up to Hong Dali and his group, he asked in a rough voice. “h.e.l.lo, gentlemen, is there something that I can help you with?”
Having only just arrived here and not knowing anything, Hong Dali instantly tipped him 100 Galaxy Dollars without another word. “Reward, 100.”
Money was indeed useful. After receiving the money, the security guard instantly nodded and bowed. “Esteemed Sir, please instruct me!” He smiled till his eyes couldn"t be seen…
“Ah, I just want to ask, is there any villa for sale here?” Hong Dali looked around and said, “The environment here is not bad, I quite like this place.”
Speaking of which, what Deca said was indeed true. The technology was improving, times were developing, everything was developing towards the direction to make life more comfortable and convenient. After all, it might not be a good thing for the place that they would be staying to become colder the more that technology improved. A house completely made from steel would be like a jail, that wasn"t necessarily becoming better.
Therefore, in the heart of the Milky Way Alliance, all kinds of things were being made from advanced technology, but the places where people stayed still had mountains and waters. There were even cute animals running and playing on the gra.s.s patches, very ecology-esque.
“Yup, speaking of which, we do indeed have two villas that haven"t been sold yet.” Hearing that Hong Dali planned to buy a house here, the eyes of the security guard shone—although he wouldn"t get any commission from Hong Dali buying house here, he was still willing to serve this kind of generous person. He hurriedly led the way in front. “Sir, please follow me.”
The small s.p.a.cecraft quickly brought Hong Dali and the rest to the sales sector.
Once they went in, two beautiful female robots respectfully said, “Welcome.” Saying so, they led the way in front and brought them to a sofa and invited them to sit down. Then, a 30 plus years old female manager walked over, smiled and said, “h.e.l.lo, you guys are planning to buy a house here?” She was about 1.7 meters tall, her skin was light blue in color, her face had two white stripes, and on the sides of her forehead were two tiny horns. Overall speaking, she looked quite pretty.
“Yup, we are here to take a look.” Hong Dali nodded and said, “Can you introduce the houses for sale to us?”
“Okay.” The female manager softly lifted her hand. Instantly, the lights became brighter and the 3D holographic projection of a house appeared in front of them. “This is a very high-grade villa, it occupies a total land s.p.a.ce of 3,600 square meters. The area of the house is 1,400 square meters. Inside the villa are a swimming pool, a parking ap.r.o.n, a sunset restaurant, and all kinds of other entertainment facilities. It would be very comfortable staying here.” Saying so, she smiled and looked at Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei. “It would also be very suitable to use as a wedding house.”
Upon hearing this, Tang Muxin instantly lowered her head shyly.
Instead, Li Nianwei"s eyes shone, then smiled and looked at Hong Dali.
“Yup, this one is not bad.” Hong Dali stretched out his hand and tapped on the holographic projection. He moved the courtyard away, then tapped on the door. Instantly, the image of the door enlarged. He tapped on it again and the door opened. In it were all kinds of interior structures, a large living room, a warm kitchen, robots that were working seriously, and so on. Everything that was needed was available there.
Even James, who came to expand his horizons, exclaimed, “G.o.d, compared to this, those sci-fi movies that we filmed are practically dog s.h.i.+t!”
Wasn"t that so. Sci-fi movies were just movies, after all. This was reality, it couldn"t be compared!
“Yup, there"s indeed quite a lot of rooms.” Hong Dali carefully looked at the rooms inside the villa, then looked at the large group of people behind him. Then, he expressed his satisfaction. “Not bad, this villa is not bad. The crucial thing is that it can hold quite a number of people. If not, I would really have a bit of a headache.”
“Since you are satisfied with this, can we discuss the price?” The manager asked.
“Yup, sure, how much does one square meter cost?” Hong Dali asked, “Give me a rough figure.”
The cost of such a huge villa definitely wouldn"t be cheap, that"s for sure.
As expected, upon mentioning the price, the female manager was a little embarra.s.sed. “We charge according to each square meter here. One square meter costs 2,200 Galaxy Dollars. The total cost of this villa is 3,080,000 Galaxy Dollars.”
3,080,000 Galaxy Dollars!
Hearing this figure, everyone instantly sucked in a cold breath.
This wasn"t a small figure, Hong Dali"s entire fortune now was only 1.2 million—he spent 50,000 to apply for a level 5 VIP card, meaning that he only had 1.15 million left…
“Yup, this price is not bad.” Hong Dali didn"t know whether this was considered expensive or cheap; he never consider the price for things anyways. He directly nodded and said, “Then I shall just buy this villa. Oh right, about that.” Hong Dali said, “Do you accept paying by installments here? I don"t have so much cash with me, you know what I am saying.”
Paying through installments! Tang Muxin instantly laughed in her heart. This Hong Dali actually learned to pay through installments, he had indeed improved!
Instead, Tang Long was mourning inside the s.p.a.ce watch. “Master, you have only just come here and you are already buying such an expensive villa. Your foundations here aren"t stable yet, you shouldn"t be taking such a large stride…”
“Nonsense.” Hong Dali humphed and said, “If I don"t buy a large villa, how can I express my ident.i.ty and status. You are really…” Others wouldn"t understand the level of being a prodigal!
“I am going to be angered to death by you!” Tang Long angrily squatted at a corner and drew circles on the floor…
The female manager nodded and said, “We do accept paying by installments here. The down payment is 30%, which is 924,000 Galaxy Dollars. You just have to pay the remaining within three years" time. But if you can"t pay up within three years, we will reclaim the villa and we will also not return the down payment to you.” Yup, it was no wonder the female manager didn"t mention any other conditions. Simple. If they couldn"t pay up within three years, the 924,000 down payment would be considered the rent for three years" stay in the villa… All housing estates were as black as one another, they definitely wouldn"t suffer any loss!
Hong Dali started counting. “Down payment is 924,000 dollars. I have 1,150,000 dollars now. After paying the down payment, I will be left with 226,000 dollars. The mission requirement is to squander 200,000 in two months" time. Oh, just nice!”
“This shall be the one then!” Hong Dali grinned and directly decided. “Li Yang, go and settle procedures for it.”
“Okay, just wait a while, Young Master.” Li Yang went with the female manager to complete the procedures. Speaking of which, the use of that level five VIP card came into effect now—level five VIPs could enjoy a three percent discount when buying a house!
Therefore, when Li Yang came back, he was very excited. “Young Master, once she heard that you are a level five VIP, she directly gave us a three percent discount. We saved 92,400 dollars buying the house, and saved 27,200 dollars on the down payment!”
Inside the s.p.a.ce watch, Tang Long directly kneeled. “What the heck, the money used on applying for the VIP card has already been made up for!?”
Tang Muxin grinned and violently patted Hong Dali"s shoulder. “Dali, you are indeed awesome. Haha, this VIP card is really worth it!”
That was why there was a saying that money still needed to be spent…
“Yup, hahaha, we finally have a house! Brothers, let"s go choose our rooms!” The female manager instantly brought them to take a look at the house, pa.s.sed them the key, and completed the procedures. Speaking of which, out of the many years she worked here, this was the most straightforward transaction she ever made—from the time Hong Dali entered to completing the procedures, only less than ten minutes had pa.s.sed!
Speaking of which, this villa was indeed not bad. There was practically no difference from what they saw on the holographic projection. It was very magnificent and high-cla.s.s looking. The environment of the villa was very good, the technologies inside were very advanced too. Therefore, everything inside was all simple and convenient to use.
For example, once they entered the living room, there was a very high-cla.s.s holographic projection which could be used to watch the newest movies and television programs.
The robot maids were very obedient, they only had to be instructed once and would complete the instructions. There were special lifts for going up and down the villa too. The temperature in the villa was also fixed at a suitable temperature. What made Hong Dali most satisfied was the bed in the room that he chose. When he wanted to sleep, there would be a lullaby when he lied down on the bed. Awesome!
