Chapter 151: After Much Awaiting, Relocation Finally Arrives

 

"What, you're going to act?" Wang Xiaoyuan was taken aback.

"Yes." Jiang Xu smiled and nodded, "I will participate in a small role without charging any fee."

In the novel, there was a mysterious character, the bodyguard of the arrogant CEO.

This character was masked from beginning to end.

Despite the limited screen time, the role was important and easy for the audience to remember.

Obviously, the reason behind this was to increase Jiang Xu's popularity.

After the drama had aired, if it became a hit...

It would be then announced that the bodyguard was, in fact, the original author of the story.

This would definitely increase Jiang Xu's popularity and gather significant attention.

They would also subtly hint this information...

Intriguing those wondering what the author looked like.

By creating such a curious situation, people's attention would naturally be attracted.

During that period, not many people realized that popularity and attention could be turned into money.

Wang Xiaoyuan had no idea about the thoughts swirling in Jiang Xu's mind.

However, she thought it was a matter of no great importance and it would even save some on the actors' fees, so she agreed to the proposal.

"Hehe, thank you, Sister Xiaoyuan." Speaking of which, Jiang Xu took out another contract.

Scratching his head somewhat embarrassingly, he said, "Why don't we sign a contract, just in case there are any changes in the future."

Wang Xiaoyuan responded in a scolding manner, "You're crafty."

She quickly glanced at the contract, which was straightforward and free of any traps, and then quickly signed it. free webno vel

After their business was settled, they began to eat and drink.

By the time they finished, it was already past two o'clock.

There was no way he could make it to the first class anymore.

It was physical education class, yet the weak and sickly physical education teacher probably wouldn't even go to class.

With the net income of four hundred thousand after tax, the loan problem for the first month was solved.

In the later stages, when the adapted TV series was broadcast, the synchronization of the novel updates could also bring in more income.

The electronic copyrights of his five novels were all owned by him.

When he returned to the classroom, the Chinese teacher was giving a lecture.

She had a bad temper, and anyone who was late would surely be berated.

However, when she faced Jiang Xu, her face was full of smiles.

What could she do? Jiang Xu was the handsome face of the class.

After school, Jiang Xu had planned to go to the North City to check on the progress of the renovation.

However, he unexpectedly received a call from the Street Office.

The area around the house he had bought from Li Honghong was about to be demolished!

What a blast, one piece of good news followed another.

The developer was now waiting in the residential area for the homeowners.

Fu Yanjie ran over and draped an arm over Jiang Xu's shoulder, "Stop working all the time and come play Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils with me."

The most popular games of these years were, following Fantasy, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, and Journey.

However, these games could only be enjoyed by those with money.

Otherwise, they would have to be like a professional gaming studio.

Individual players could only please those wealthy players.

"I won't go." Jiang Xu shook his head, "The house I bought is about to be demolished. Hehe, I'm about to go to a meeting."

"Damn, where?" Fu Yanjie was shocked.

"The house where Li Honghong used to live."

Fu Yanjie was extremely envious, "Whew, why is your luck so good?

This demolition will net you at least several millions.

I won't go to the internet cafe; I'll go with you to check it out."

Afterward, the three of them headed together to that residential area.

Jiang Xu brought along the house ownership certificate on his way back home.

By the time they arrived, the rest of the residents had already gathered.

He then declared his identity and sat down.

A middle-aged man in a black suit took the microphone to the stage.

"Hello everyone, I'm Cao Deshuang, the general manager of Hengsheng Real Estate. I will now explain our compensation scheme to you..."

Jiang Xu was speechless about this name... It was quite something.

Cao Deshuang said, "There are three compensation schemes. The first one is full payment, with a compensation of twelve thousand per square meter.

In addition, if there are storefronts on the street, the price will be increased by three to six thousand depending on the location.

Moving costs will be five hundred per square meter.

The renovation fee for the new house will be one thousand per square meter.

Moreover, if the contract is signed within a week, an additional one hundred thousand will be added."

Fu Yanjie's eyes brightened and he quietly said to Jiang Xu, "Your house on the third floor is nearly three hundred square meters.

If it's sold, you'll receive over three million with the various subsidies, you're rich!"

An Nuonuo truly felt happy for Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu simply smiled, not saying anything.

He certainly did not want the first scheme.

Cao Deshuang continued, "The second scheme is to take half of the compensation.

The remaining amount will be converted into a house according to the area of your current house.

For example, if your house is one hundred square meters, the demolition standard is twelve thousand per square meter.

If you choose the second scheme, then you will receive a compensation of six thousand per square meter.

In addition, you will be compensated with a house of one hundred square meters.

The location will be in the same area, but it will be a roughcast house."

The crowd started discussing.

This second compensation scheme seemed quite good as well.

Cao Deshuang continued, "The final scheme is to neglect the demolition money and convert it all into houses.

A ratio of one to two will be applied, meaning your original house of hundred square meters will be compensated with two houses each of hundred square meters.

The moving cost, renovation cost for new houses as well as the additional amount for signing the contract within one week will be included.

I personally recommend everyone to choose the third scheme as it is more cost-effective."

As soon as he finished speaking, an older woman stood up and said, "The price of twelve thousand is too low, this area will definitely become popular in the future, it should be at least twenty thousand!"

Once someone led the way, the rest of the people also started expressing their opinions.

"That's right, we've lived here so long and have grown attached to this place, so the price must go up!" 

"Right, the price absolutely has to be increased!"

Jiang Xu did not participate and just observed silently.

He had already chosen the third scheme.

He would exchange a three-story residential building for six houses.

Moreover, he might also be able to get some additional benefits.

People can be greedy.

It seemed like this was the first time Cao Deshuang was dealing with this kind of issue.

Or maybe he was a relative of the real estate company staff.

Otherwise, if a more experienced employee had come over, they would certainly not have gathered everyone together for a meeting.

They would have chosen a divide and rule strategy.

As expected, Cao Deshuang seemed to have a hard time dealing with various unreasonable demands from the crowd.

In this initial meeting, no one agreed to his scheme and everyone scattered unhappily.

Jiang Xu did not leave.

Only after the others had left did he come up to Cao Deshuang.

He smiled and said, "Manager Cao, shall we have a chat?"

Sighting the school uniforms of Jiang Xu and his two friends, Cao Deshuang didn't take them seriously.

He still maintained his smile, "Young friend, if you want to discuss demolition matters, it's better to let your elders come."

Jiang Xu handed him the house certificate and his identity card, "I am the owner of the house. I can discuss it with you."

Cao Deshuang glanced at the identity card and house certificate.

His face became serious, "I see. So, what do you want to discuss?"
