The next day, eight oclock.
Lin Yuan left the house before breakfast.
His goal of this outing was: to buy a house!
In Lin Yuans bank account was last months novel manuscript fee from King of the Net, which after taxes, netted a total of 1.25 million.
Adding the revenue share from several songs downloads, it had reached two million.
The majority of the song revenue came from Easy to Ignite and Explode launched last month.
Furthermore, the short story The Gift of the Magi sold another two hundred thousand.
Originally, this money would have been transferred next month, but Lin Yuan wanted to have a more abundant wallet before buying the house, so he had Silver Blue Books advance his manuscript fees.
Since Lin Yuans collaboration with Silver Blue Books went well, they willingly agreed.
Thus, the aforementioned two hundred thousand has already been transferred.
!!..
Therefore, Lin Yuan now had approximately 2.2 million on hand, and he couldnt resist buying a house any longer.
In fact, Lin Yuan had been thinking about buying a home ever since he moved out.
Because their current living conditions are somewhat crude, life is very inconvenient.
Just take living for instance.
The space in a two-bedroom apartment is very limited.
Ordinarily, its more than sufficient when only his mother resided there.
However, during the festive season when everyone returned home, four peoples space would become exceedingly cramped.
What to do?
Lin Yuan could only have a room to himself since he was the only boy in the family.
Then, the master bedroom that Mum resided in was forcibly partitioned into two rooms.
Sisters Lin Xuan and Lin Yao slept in the partition on the left, both squeezing onto one bed.
Mum slept in the partition on the right.
With poor sound insulation, small space, and everyone having to take turns using the restroom for morning routines and evening baths, by each individuals living habits, the living conditions were uncomfortable. Yet, everyone refrained from complaining.
Now that they have money, why should they humor themselves in such a narrow space?
Moreover, the living conditions of the old house were poor, from the houses decoration and furniture quality to community facilities and transportation, everything was outdated. It was tough for Mum to live in such a place alone.
Boughting a house, it has to be done.
Before going out to buy a house, Lin Yuan made a specific online search and found that two million was enough to buy a very nice house in Cloud City.
After all, Cloud City is just an unimpressive small city in Qin Continent.
He had previously worried about not having enough money. He really did overthink things.
Of course, Lin Yuan had also considered moving his mother to Su City, but when he suggested it to her secretly last night, she refused. She was not yet ready to leave her hometown where she had lived for so many years.
Therefore, Lin Yuan decided to think long-term.
After all, Lin Yuan currently couldnt afford a house in Su City.
Its better to let Mum live in a better house in Cloud City for the time being.
Thinking so, Lin Yuan finally arrived at the sales center by bus.
He first had a breakfast nearby, filling his stomach, then entered.
Hello, sir.
One of the young male salesmen came to meet him warmly: I am a real estate salesman, you can call me Xiao Mu. May I ask your surname, and are you here with the idea of buying a house?
Lin Yuan nodded: Yes, my surname is Lin.
Xiao Mu nodded: Hello, Mr. Lin, can I ask what price range youre considering?
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and said: Two million, not too much more.
Xiao Mu was stunned for a moment; Lin Yuan looked so young, almost like a student, would he really ask for two million dollar house right off the bat?
But he still dutifully introduced Lin Yuan to several properties, all priced around two million.
Can I go see this one?
Lin Yuan was interested in one of them; a house for 2.1 million, its price did not surpass his budget.
Of course.
The other party immediately nodded: We have the keys to this property, I can take you to see it right now. Please wait here a moment as I go get the key.
Xiao Mu rushed into the room to get the key.
His colleague whispered from behind: Xiao Mu, dont take this client too seriously. Hes likely just looking around and wont actually buy anything.
Xiao Mu was stunned: Why?
His colleague had a made-it-through look and smiled while looking at Lin Yuan waiting outside the door: Our job is to watch and observe, and I observe every client that comes in. This client came by bus, and he isnt dressed very expensively. Most importantly
What?
I ran into him at the breakfast shop when I was passing by, he was haggling over the price of breakfast, asking the boss if he could make it a bit cheaper. Have you ever seen someone haggle the price of breakfast?
But breakfast next door is indeed expensive.
Xiao Mu seemed to sympathize with Lin Yuan: A bowl of ramen is twenty, its too exaggerated. At the breakfast shop next to our community, a bowl of ramen only costs eleven at most, and they even add a lot of beef. Thats why I never eat breakfast near the office.
Colleague:
Xiao Mu picked up the keys and left.
Soon after, he took Lin Yuan to one of the best communities in Cloud City, Dragon River Garden.
Dragon River Garden is quite famous in Cloud City!
Xiao Mu laughed: When I used to deliver food, each entry required registration at the gate. The property management is very responsible, and the environment inside the community is beautiful and very suitable for living.
After some brief introductions.
The two arrived at the ninth floor of unit one in building twenty-eight.
Upon entering the room, Lin Yuan found that the decoration of this house was very stylish, presenting a new but not ostentatious Chinese style, and the furniture was new and complete.
As you can see.
Xiao Mu said: Although it is a second-hand house, I assure you that no one has actually lived in this house. The owner is a biology professor. He originally planned to buy this house for settling down, and all the decorations and furniture were prepared. However, due to an unexpected job transfer, he went to Chu Continent, and so hes selling this house, and will buy a new one in Chu Continent.
Lin Yuan went to the balcony and took a look.
The view was excellent, the landscape lush with greenery and the air very fresh. He nodded approvingly, Very good, but
Xiao Mu said: Say it.
He has shown several clients around, so he knew that when clients say something like this, it means that the deal is unlikely to proceed.
Lin Yuan asked, Can I move in straight away?
Xiao Mu was taken aback, Are you planning to buy it?
Lin Yuan nodded, Yes, 1 think its great. Ill take this one.
Xiao Mu was somewhat surprised, then quickly looked troubled, Getting a bank loan involves a process, and the owner will probably wait for the bank to release the loan
Lin Yuan replied, Im paying in full.
Lin Yuan admitted to himself that he had no business acumen, didnt understand investment, let alone inflation. His natural uncommon sense told him bank loan interest rates were high and a loss. If he had the money, it made sense to pay in full.
What?
Xiao Mu gaped.
But the next moment, he managed to conceal his excitement and said, Please wait a moment. Ill make a call to the owner to discuss it!
He got through quickly.
After Xiao Mu ended the call, he grinned at Lin Yuan, The owner was initially reluctant, but after hearing that you were paying in full, they agreed immediately to your request to move in. Now, you need to come back to the office with me to sign a contract. The owner will also come over to meet us.
Alright.
Lin Yuan nodded.
With Lin Yuan, Xiao Mu headed back to his office.
A colleague asked with a bright smile, So how did it go? I told you, didnt I?
Xiao Mu gave his colleague a strange look, The client is signing now, and might move in tonight because he paid in full, making the seller agree readily.
Huh?
The colleague was stunned.
Bought it? And paid in full?
Could this be the legendary low-key rich?
By the time the colleague came back to his senses, Xiao Mu had already left, and Lin Yuan had already met with the owner, signed the property contract, and transferred the money on the same day.
I recommend changing the door lock after buying the house.
Xiao Mu smiled and said, Thats what everyone does after buying a house. Besides, there are a few minor procedures afterward that require you or your family members to run around a bit, but I will take care of everything.
Lin Yuan nodded, Okay, thank you.
In addition to buying the house, he also paid about thirty thousand yuan of various taxes and agency fees. Now there was less than a hundred thousand yuan left in his card, but he still felt rather happy. He made a phone call to his sister.
His sister asked, Whats up? You disappeared early in the morning, where did you go?
Lin Yuan said, Can you bring mom and my sister here? Im at Dragon River Garden.
Lin Yuan hadnt told his family that hed gone out to buy a house.
It wasnt because he wanted to surprise them with it
He was more afraid that his family would dissuade him from spending money and tell him to keep the money for treatments.
Whats happening? Did something happen to you?
n
Just come.
Lin Yuan left it up in the air.
Half an hour later, his mother, sister, and younger sister all showed up at Dragon River Garden, with Lin Yuan waiting for them at the entrance.
Why did you ask us to come here?
Lin Xuan looked at Lin Yuan suspiciously, I thought something happened to you.
Right, you scared me.
Their mother seemed quite worried.
Lin Yao complained, I was studying.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, You can study here.
What do you mean?
I bought a unit here.
Without prolonging the suspense, Lin Yuan directly led his bewildered family into their new home. Then, he imitated the agents way of introducing a house, Its one hundred and forty square meters with four bedrooms, one living room, two bathrooms and a south facing view. Its a great layout, plus theres a quiet study and a spacious balcony with a great view
Lin Yuan found out that no one was listening to him.
He turned around, only to see his family standing still, gazing at him with conflicted eyes. The three family members were not as excited as he had imagined.
Lin Yuan guessed the reason.
So he smiled and said, I went to the hospital for another checkup a while ago. The doctor said theres nothing seriously wrong with my body. As long as 1 take my medication regularly, I will definitely recover in time!
What?
Really?
After a moments response, the eyes of his family members reddened. His mother, in particular, both cried and laughed as she went forward to grab hold of Lin Yuan, Are you lying to me?
No.
Lin Yuan smiled and said, If you dont believe me, I can accompany you all to the hospital for another checkup.
Lets go right now!
His mother took Lin Yuans hand and walked out the door.
Lin Yuan laughed and cried, and ended up going with his mother to the hospital for another checkup, confirming him that there was no problem. He had already asked the system, and the doctors wouldnt be able to detect any issues because his body was indeed recovering.
As expected.
After a round of check-ups at the hospital, aside from being weaker than the average person, Lin Yuans fatal illness had gradually started to recover.
Thats great.
His mother clung to Lin Yuan and cried. His sister and younger sister also quietly wiped away their tears. Even though no one talked about it, Lin Yuans health and illness had been their constant worry.
Lin Yuan felt a bit sad, Lets go home.
Which home?
Of course, the new one.
What about our old home? This time, it was his mother who asked him.
If you like it, you can keep it as a remembrance. You can visit it from time to time But from now on, well live in our new house, Lin Yuan said with a smile.
Alright.
Everyone agreed in unison. Only then could everyone let go of their burdens and enjoy the delayed joy of buying a house wholeheartedly. This joy was built on the basis of Lin Yuans recovery, not him arranging for his family in the limited life he had left.
A new house.
A new beginning.
A new life..
