Chapter 668: Chapter 666: Buying a Shop, Receiving Gifts
The girl with the colorful acne pieced together the story from her would-be father-in-lawâs words and realized that Lin Wanwan was actually Liang Zhenxiangâs last disciple. Remembering her earlier boasting at the dinner table, her face grew hot with embarrassment and anger as she glared at Lin Wanwan.
If looks could kill, Lin Wanwan wouldâve been riddled with holes by now.
But Lin Wanwan wasnât about to bother with someone whoâs muddle-headed. From what the girl said at dinner, Lin Wanwan knew she was a vain, stupid, and illogical person, hardly worth talking to.
Gu Jingyu finished entertaining guests and returned from the hall, learning that Lin Wanwan had treated her sonâs intestinal colic, feeling endlessly grateful.
Lin Wanwan looked at Gu Jingyu, who had reverted to her pre-pregnancy weight, and said, "Itâs nothing, just a coincidence. But I have to go back to the Ancient City today, so I wonât be able to see Chenchen personally. You should find that Dr. Chen; Iâve left the Moxibustion Package with him."
"Wanwan, youâre so impressive. You decided to learn traditional medicine and actually apprenticed under a famous doctor. So, are you going to become a doctor in the future?" Gu Jingyu was genuinely impressed with Lin Wanwanâs initiative.
"Weâll see, but Iâll open up a herbal medicine store, and when Iâm qualified, Iâll open a clinic."
"That would be fantastic, Iâll come to you for medical advice then," Gu Jingyu said with a smile.
The two shared a few more words, and then a babyâs cry echoed from upstairs. This time the cry wasnât shrill, it was simply a normal hunger call.
Gu Jingyu quickly changed her shoes to head upstairs, "Wanwan, why donât you come up and sit for a while."
"No, I have things to do and need to leave now."
"Then come back for dinner later."
"I wonât be coming back; you should go tend to the child. Iâm flying back to the Ancient City tonight; my studies arenât over yet," Lin Wanwan explained with a smile.
"Okay, okay, drive safely. I wonât send you off. Letâs meet up the next time youâre back in Yongcheng."
"Mhm, you should hurry upstairs, the kidâs ravenous," Lin Wanwan waved, urging Gu Jingyu to go.
The latter waved back at her and hurried up the stairs, "thud thud thud".
Lin Wanwan took her medical case and drove towards Times City under the watchful eyes of Gu Jingyuâs relatives.
The Times City project is a comprehensive development under Times Groupâs real estate company investment, located in the new district, covering about 600,000 square meters.
It neighbors the city forest park, with products including mid-rise buildings, high-rise buildings, townhouses, mansions, and shops.
Su Yanwei chose the shop for Lin Wanwan because he saw that there were more than 3,000 households, providing a solid base and ensuring popularity.
When Lin Wanwan arrived, she met Su Yanwei and immediately looked at two community storefronts facing the street. They were 6 meters tall, providing space for a second floor.
One unit had just become vacant, while the other was still under lease.
Lin Wanwan found renting a hassle, and since everything else seemed similar, she decided to buy the vacant unit.
This unit had a building area of 352.74 square meters, and the homeowner asked for 7.4 million.
Since Su Yanwei leveraged connections to find the listing and contact the owner, without heavy agent commissions, the siblings could easily negotiate and bargain the price to 7.3 million, saving a full hundred thousand.
After deciding, Lin Wanwan immediately called Tan Qinghui, asking him to help with the contract signing.
Though real estate agents could handle these matters, just having them facilitate contract signing and transfer wasnât expensive. On the contrary, hiring a lawyer would cost more.
These second-hand commercial property purchase contracts are fixed format agreements; primarily concerning price and location, the buyer and seller can handle it themselves, with lawyers not offering much additional value.
Since Lin Wanwan had employed Tan Qinghuiâs firm as a legal consultant with fixed annual consultation fees and discounted other costs, she naturally chose to involve him.
Itâs better to make this money for her own cooperating units than for real estate agents.
Yongtang has been open for nearly a year since its launch last October until this August.
The embroidery pieces, Hanfu needing collaboration with modern non-heritage successors and the Embroidery Workshop, have higher costs, while the goods transported from Great Tang were practically complete profit.
She runs a sole proprietorship, meaning all these profits are hers personally, making it no problem to pull out over seven hundred thousand cash.
Now Lin Wanwan had two embroideresses from the Tang Palace, whose works she priced high, following a premium route.
If everything goes smoothly, her goal of netting one million each month is fully achievable, so she doesnât skimp on spending.
For shops! Especially ones like Times Cityâs community storefronts, theyâre worth investing in, buying wonât lose money!
After making her decision, Lin Wanwan signed the contract to pay in full upfront. She didnât even consider loans.
Owning the Space-Time Bracelet, her cash flow was exceedingly healthy, why let banks earn that loan interest?
She had no ambitions for rapid expansion, didnât need loans for leveraged growth. Slow and steady, she would eventually be a millionaire with cash flow exceeding the billions.
Who else could profit so handsomely except herself!
After signing the contract and paying the deposit, and transferring fifty thousand as a fatigue fee to Su Yanwei, Lin Wanwan brought Wealth home.
"Yes, I see sunshine everywhere, happiness floats above the city."
En route home, Lin Wanwanâs phone rang; she answered via Bluetooth headset, hearing Lu Shouyueâs deep voice.
"Wanwan, where are you now? Iâm back in Yongcheng."
"Iâm on my way home now."
"Alright, Iâll come to your house. Letâs catch a movie, then have barbecue at Lao Jieâs tonight, how about that?"
"Next time, Iâve got a ticket for a flight to the Ancient City tonight, timeâs too tight."
đđŁđ˛đđ¨đ˛đđťđźđŻđ˛đ.đ°đđŚ
Lu Shouyue decisively said, "Cancel the ticket, come with me on a private flight tomorrow morning instead."
"Huh, didnât you need to go to Hong Kong Island for the auction these days? Not going?"
"Mm, weâll discuss when we meet, you drive safely."
"Oh, alright, Iâm hanging up, bye-bye."
Lin Wanwan parked the car when she got home, let Wealth out to play for a bit, and Lu Shouyue arrived.
Today, he wore a white T-shirt with a flashy pattern on the back paired with ripped jeans. Seeing Lin Wanwan, he smilingly handed over a bag: "Wanwan, here, my mom asked me to bring this to you."
"What is it?" Lin Wanwan stood up and took the bag.
"Clothes."
Lin Wanwan opened the bag to find a T-shirt and a pair of jeans, and immediately laughed: "These match the one youâre wearing, right? Are the patterns drawn by Aunt Ye?"
Luâs mother owns a gallery and even has shares in SV. She frequently prints her art on T-shirts for sale.
Lu Shouyue laughed too: "Yes, itâs hers, co-branded with SV. Mm, the jeans were chosen by me, they just happened to have a womenâs style. All sanitized, Wanwan, do you want to try them on?"
"Okay."
Lin Wanwan had worn a comfortable solid colored cotton-linen dress to attend the babyâs hundred-day celebration.
Lu Shouyue suggested she try on the clothes and even mentioned theyâd been sanitized, clearly wanting them to wear matching outfits.
For Lin Wanwan, it was just tossing an extra dress into the washing machine, didnât matter.
