Chapter 10

"Things are very simple," the young man said, giving a signal to the bodyguards behind him. The two bodyguards immediately cleared a quiet space around them, and the young man then said with a smile, "I heard by chance that you, Dalili, have bought this entire nightclub?"

"Yeah, so what? Do you want it?" Hong Dalili was not at all polite, plopping down on the sofa beside him and arrogantly putting his feet up on the coffee table in front of him, looking every bit the wastrel: "If you want it, just say so. I’ll transfer it to you. We’re all brothers, so it’s simple." Since the task was already completed, if this person wanted to buy it, Hong Dalili wouldn’t mind making a profit of one or two million.

"Ha ha ha, Dalili, you’re really joking. I don’t have your kind of heaven-defying skills," the young man laughed, and then said, "Actually, I came to see you today because I also want to transfer a few properties and shops in this area. How about it? They’re all nearby, the locations are good, and the prices are reasonable. Think about it?"

Hong Dalili arrogantly dug his nose with his little finger: "Hmm, that’s interesting. Tell me what you have."

The young man gave a signal to the bodyguard beside him, and the bodyguard immediately took out two documents and placed them in front of Hong Dalili. The documents contained a lot of information, including specific locations, areas, and floors. Hong Dalili slowly read through them: "Hmm, a cyber cafe and a billiard hall, each four hundred square meters. Three restaurants, independent buildings, totaling six thousand three hundred square meters. Two hotels, each eleven hundred square meters. Forty-eight residential units, totaling five thousand two hundred square meters."

After reading through all the information, Hong Dalili lightly tapped the documents in his hand: "Brother, I didn’t expect you to have so much stuff. So many good things, do you want me to take it all?"

Understanding Hong Dalili’s meaning, the young man immediately became nervous: "How about it, my ‘good little brother’? These properties are what I’ve accumulated over the years. Since you’re interested, why not take them? If you’re going to be a wastrel, you might as well do it on a grand scale, right?"

"Hmm, I like the way you talk. You really understand me, brother," Hong Dalili laughed heartily. "So, what’s your price? I’ll take a look. If it’s reasonable, I’ll take it. How about that?"

Tang Muxin, standing beside him, had no idea what Hong Dalili was thinking. This young man clearly had no good intentions, so why was Hong Dalili talking about cooperation with him? Moreover, these properties were not a small amount. But now she couldn’t understand this level of wasteful behavior, so she decided to keep quiet and wait for the outcome.

Even if Hong Dalili’s parents really spoiled him, they probably wouldn’t do something like this directly. These properties must be worth at least twenty to thirty million, right?

Sure enough, the young man hesitated for a moment and then gave his ideal price: "Thirty-five million in total. How about it, my good little brother? Do you plan to take it all? You’ve never been this wasteful before, have you?"

"Hmm, that’s more interesting. I like it," Hong Dalili rubbed his chin, calculating in his mind: "These properties won’t sell for this much in this world, but the content is good. If I take them all, my attribute points will skyrocket. But how can I buy them all with my own money? If I don’t have enough, can I use the family’s money? That’s a serious issue."

In short, regardless of everything, Hong Dalili, though wasteful, wanted to be wasteful but couldn’t be a fool in front of the other party. He snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Xiao Yi, help me calculate how much these things are worth."

"Sure, Young Master," Ling Xiaoyi took the documents and started calculating item by item: "The cyber cafe and billiard hall in this area have always had poor business, barely breaking even or even losing money. So these two properties, totaling eight hundred square meters, can only be valued at about two thousand two hundred yuan per square meter. The three restaurants have better business than the cyber cafe and billiard hall, but not much, about two thousand five hundred yuan per square meter. The two hotels are even worse, only two thousand yuan per square meter. As for the forty-eight residential units, they can only be valued at about eight hundred yuan per square meter."

"So in total," Ling Xiaoyi somehow produced a calculator: "The cyber cafe and billiard hall are one million seven hundred and sixty thousand yuan. The three restaurants are fifteen million seven hundred and fifty thousand yuan. The two hotels are two million two hundred thousand yuan. The forty-eight residential units are four million one hundred and sixty thousand yuan. In total, the value is..." After a series of button presses, Ling Xiaoyi concluded: "Twenty-three million eight hundred and seventy thousand yuan."

The young man was stunned, and finally asked in disbelief: "This... Miss, where did you come from? How can you calculate so accurately?!" He couldn’t help but be shocked. The price Ling Xiaoyi calculated was within ten thousand yuan of the price calculated by professional asset evaluators, and even more precise.

"I’m a finance major from Tianjing University," Ling Xiaoyi smiled shyly. "I’m now working for Young Master Dalili."

I never thought I’d have such good luck today, to randomly meet such a talented person! Hong Dalili laughed heartily: "Xiao Yi, you did a great job. I’ll give you a big reward, five thousand yuan as a tip later!"

Ling Xiaoyi smiled: "Thank you, Young Master."

"Hmm, so now," Hong Dalili looked at the brother who had appeared out of nowhere: "I’ll offer twenty-five million. What do you think, brother?"

Twenty-five million, though he didn’t manage to trick him into thirty-five million, it was still within his budget. The young man thought for a moment, then bit his lip: "Alright! That’s it. Dalili, shall we sign the contract now?" This area was a bit of a dead zone, not worth keeping and hard to sell. Now that Hong Dalili, the wastrel, wanted to take it all, there was no need to hesitate.

Actually, Hong Dalili wanted to sign right away, but this was a big deal, twenty-five million, almost an astronomical figure in this world. Although his parents spoiled him, he wasn’t confident enough to make such a big decision. Hong Dalili thought for a moment and suddenly called the driver: "Driver, do you have your phone? Call home and ask if it can be approved."

The driver quickly took out his phone and dialed. Hong Dalili took the phone and asked: "Hello, is...?"

Before he could finish, his mother’s voice came from the other end: "Dalili, what’s wrong? Do you need more money?"

Hong Dalili thought for a moment, sniffed, and said: "Yes, I need more. I made two deals, and there’s a big gap..."

"Oh, our Dalili knows how to make deals now?" his mother was surprised. "What deals? Tell me, Mom. Oh, our Dalili has really grown up, knowing how to make deals."

"I just bought some properties..." Hong Dalili sniffed. "In total, about thirty million..."

As soon as he said that, the phone on the other end dropped with a thud. After a while, his father’s voice came through, shouting: "You little brat, how much did you say? Thirty... thirty million?!"
