Chapter 242 Tao Lei, a decent man

The salesperson said, "Our Jinxiuchuan property in Donghu will be launched soon. You can leave your phone number and we will contact you when the time comes."

"When will the property be delivered?" Chang Yuanliang asked.

"It's hard to say. According to our experience, it will take at least until the end of next year to deliver."

There are still nearly two years to go.

Cui Changjia asked, "The property over there is newly opened. Will the price be lower than here?"

The salesperson smiled and said, "It's impossible to be lower, it must be higher. If the remaining shops were in a better location, they would have been sold long ago."

There was a real estate bubble in 2008 due to the financial crisis, but no matter how low the prices were then, they would not be lower than they are now.

Cui Changjia asked the salesperson, "Where is the school planned?"

The salesperson drew a circle on the plan with a laser pen and said, "It's right here. The closest neighborhood to the school is Phase 3. You don't have to cross the road to go to school."

Cui Changjia whispered, "Uncle, the two shops are only more than 600,000 yuan at most. I don't think you need to worry about it."

Chang Yuanliang asked Cui Changjia, "Do you think it's appropriate?"

“The school is near this community, so I think it’s a good fit.”

When doing business, you cannot just look at the location or Feng Shui, you still have to look at the people. Some people can do business successfully no matter where they are.

Chang Yuanliang didn't hesitate when he heard Cui Changjia say that. He pointed to the two connected shops of 70 to 80 square meters and said, "Calculate the price of these two shops together."

The price was calculated to be about 650,000. Chang Yuanliang went out to make a phone call and found a connection. When he came back, the price became 550,000, which was 100,000 cheaper in an instant.

This is the circle, a phone call can be worth a lot of money.

In 2005, there were not so many rules and regulations for buying a house. Chang Yuanliang swiped his own card and wrote Chang Ying's name.

After completing the formalities, Chang Yuanliang gave all the information to Cui Changjia and asked her to pass it on to Chang Ying.

After buying the shops for Chang Ying, Cui Changjia breathed a sigh of relief. These two shops were just a drop in the bucket of Chang Yuanliang's assets, but compared to the 200,000 yuan dowry that Chang Yuanliang had promised Chang Ying when she got married, being able to buy two shops was great!
Cui Changjia was very happy on the way to Chang Ying's shop. As soon as he entered the cake shop, he couldn't wait to find Chang Ying, but the clerk said she was in the backyard.

Cui Changjia excitedly pushed open the door to the backyard and went in. He was surprised to see the man sitting opposite Chang Ying. The man's facial features looked very familiar, but judging from his body shape, Cui Changjia was not sure whether he could recognize him.

"What? You don't recognize me?" the man said to Cui Changjia with a very proud expression.

Chang Ying turned her head and said with a smile, "This is Tao Lei. You don't recognize him, right? I was also shocked when I saw him."

"Oh my god, Tao Lei, how much weight have you lost!" Cui Changjia exclaimed in surprise.

Tao Lei was originally tall and strong, but he didn't mean just any strong. He was the kind that was fat and strong. He still looks very strong now, but he has become smaller overall.

Originally, his face was greasy and rough, but now it seems to have some contours.

His clothes were no longer the greasy work clothes he had before. He wore a black woolen coat with a Zhongshan collar, and his hair was combed shiny. He looked like a decent man!

"I've lost 40 pounds."

Tao Lei has lost a little weight, and his voice is not as loud as before.

"Brother Lei, are you weak from losing weight?" Cui Changjia walked over and sat down with a smile, "You even feel weak when you talk."

"I used to eat two kilograms of rice a day, but now I only eat two ounces of rice a day. How can I have the strength?" Tao Lei took the tea and drank half a cup in one breath, saying, "See, when I'm hungry, I can only drink water to fill my stomach." Chang Ying felt that Tao Lei was quite pitiful, and said, "I'll get you some whole wheat bread. Although it's high in calories, it's very filling. You can have a couple of bites, it won't be a problem."

Tao Lei shook his head, "I can bear it, I won't eat it anymore."

As a man, he definitely can't go back on his word!
Cui Changjia gave him a thumbs up and said, "Brother Lei, you are awesome. I will learn from you!"

Cui Changjia sincerely praised Tao Lei, because losing weight is really, really difficult. Just control your mouth and move your legs. Everyone can do it twice, but the difficult part is to persist in it for a long time!
Tao Lei picked up the cup and drank all the water, then said, "Okay, you guys go have fun, I'm leaving."

"Let's chat for a while, Brother Lei," Cui Changjia said with a smile, "What are you doing here?"

"A lot of people have already moved here to work. I came to take a look." Tao Lei stood up and said, "I still have to go back early. I have to go on a long trip tomorrow."

"Our office is just upstairs from you. Feel free to come over and play."

As Tao Lei walked out, he said, "I went up to take a look today, and your office was locked."

"Call ahead next time. What date are you planning to open?"

"March twenty-eighth."

"Isn't it almost time? Are we still going to hold the ceremony?" Cui Changjia secretly noted down the date. She would order a flower basket when the time comes.

"Yes, the city leaders will come to cut the ribbon."

It seems that not only will there be a ceremony, but it will also be a big move.

Cui Changjia went out to see Tao Lei off, and Chang Ying fell behind. After a while, she caught up with him and stuffed a bag of whole wheat bread into Tao Lei's hand so that he could have a bite when he couldn't bear it anymore.

Tao Lei did not refuse this time. When he left, he promised to treat them to a meal after he successfully lost weight.

Tao Lei left. Cui Changjia and Chang Ying walked into the store and asked her, "How did you two meet? I didn't recognize him."

"I went to the office building opposite to deliver some tea and snacks that someone had ordered. I bumped into him, but I didn't recognize him. After a few words, I realized it was him. I asked him to come for tea, and he came."

Chang Ying was very emotional. "It seems that he was really hit hard. He is almost losing his life to lose weight. I heard him say that he runs at least ten kilometers every day. My God, I feel exhausted after running one kilometer."

"If you were as fat as him, you could run too. I'll show you something good."

"What good stuff?"

"You'll know once you see it."

Pulling Chang Ying straight to the backyard, Cui Changjia sat down and then took out the information from the bag and showed it to Chang Ying.

"Here, see for yourself."

"House purchase contract." Chang Ying only read four words and stopped. She looked at Cui Changjia in shock, her eyes almost popping out. "Mine? You bought it for me?"

"Sister, do I have that strength now?"

Chang Ying was shocked, "If not you, then who else could it be?"

Cui Changjia couldn't help but hold his forehead, "Couldn't it be that Uncle Chang bought it for you?"

"How is it possible!" Chang Ying still didn't believe it. She looked at the contract again and again, saying, "How is it possible!"

Haha, the update is complete
Tao Lei is about to transform, let's look forward to it
good night, everyone
