At night, Fali went home and told Chen Zhao about it.
Chen Zhao didn't think too much about it.
So what if someone died? It would be better if the haunting was worse.
That way, it would be cheaper.
Even if they couldn't sell it, they could live in it.
As for people dying, they didn't care.
Even if there was a ghost, he could clean it up.
As for whether it was six million or ten million, he didn't care.
"After you buy it," Fali said. "Exorcise it."
Although the kids could do it too.
But Fali couldn't ask them to exorcise her, could she?
Chen Zhao was more used to it.
"Okay, I'll go when I'm free."
…
The next day
Fali and Ashley took half a day off.
They didn't go to the house, though. Instead, they went to Alex's law firm.
"Hello, Miss Fali. I'm Richard." Richard knew Fali.
Fali definitely didn't know him.
Last time, when Chen Zhao and Fali came together, she'd heard someone mention their identities.
This time, Richard was personally appointed by Alex.
Their law firm didn't specifically serve Chen Zhao's family.
However, Chen Zhao was their biggest client.
Chen Zhao paid them 40% of the firm's total income.
Therefore, the lawyers had to do their job.
"Hello, Mr. Richard." Fali nodded. "This is my friend, Ashley."
"Hello, Miss Ashley." Richard's attitude toward Ashley was clearly much more distant.
Ashley was a bit scared because she was in the law firm.
Alex's law firm was rather large. It rented three floors of the business building.
Every single person walking around here could make her bankrupt and ruin her reputation.
She dared to point at the police and curse at them, but she didn't dare to breathe loudly here.
"Let's go."
"Okay." Richard nodded.
After leaving the law firm and getting into the car, Ashley finally relaxed a bit.
Richard drove while Fali and Ashley sat in the back.
"Fali, this law firm's fees are really high, right?"
"I don't know." Fali didn't know how much Chen Zhao paid Alex every year.
She heard that it was tens of millions of dollars.
"It's free. Any service we provide to you is free."
"Free? Why? "
"Because she's a VIP of our law firm."
Richard didn't explain more to Ashley. She might not understand even if he did.
After arriving at the apartment building, the three of them went upstairs.
Ashley had already contacted the homeowner.
The owner of the house was in the apartment.
After ringing the doorbell, the back door opened.
The owner was a middle-aged man.
When the middle-aged man saw Fali, his eyes lit up.
"Hello, beautiful lady, I'm Tony. May I know your name?"
With that, Tony tried to kiss the back of Fali's hand.
Fali pulled her hand back. "Mr. Tony, let's talk business."
"This is my friend, Fali. She's also the buyer this time," Ashley introduced.
"What about this one?" Tony looked at Richard. He thought that Richard was Fali's husband, so his gaze was provocative.
Richard smiled at Tony. "Hello, I'm Miss Fali's lawyer. You can call me Richard. Also, from what I know, Mr. Tony's financial situation is a bit bad, so you'd better pray that this transaction goes smoothly. Otherwise, Mr. Tony might go to jail."
Tony's expression immediately became unnatural.
"You investigated me? Do you think I won't sue you for invading my privacy? "
"No, I'm just helping my client find out who she's dealing with and whether it's worth the deal," Richard said unhurriedly. Richard said calmly, "This is my business card. If you want to sue my client, you'd better figure out who your enemy is first."
When Tony saw the name of the law firm on the name card, his expression changed.
Alex's law firm was quite famous in Los Angeles.
"Mr. Tony, do you have all the materials for the house? I don't want Fali to come here for nothing. Her time is very precious. " Richard still spoke in that calm and formal tone. "Honesty is the prerequisite for a transaction. If I find that the ownership of the house isn't clear during the transaction, it won't be as simple as a failed transaction."
Tony was a bit angered by Richard's tone and attitude.
He really hated this kind of high and mighty attitude.
"I'm not selling it! Get the hell out of here. "
Richard still wore that professional smile and turned to Fali. "Sorry, Miss Fali, for messing up this transaction. But don't worry, I'll make sure this house will never be sold. Then, I'll sell it to you at half the market price, if you're willing to wait a month."
Tony's expression froze, but he still didn't want to give in.
"This is my house. All the procedures are legal. You can't scare me."
"If our law firm is afraid of heights and you've cheated during the transaction, then this house can't be sold before the lawsuit is over. Miss Fali is our law firm's biggest client. She pays us fifty million dollars every year. I think our boss will be happy to work for her for free. But how long can your financial situation last? Let me guess, a week? Or two? Maybe Miss Fali should call the bank and ask if they forgot your repayment date. "
Tony finally gave in.
Ashley was also shocked by what she saw.
With just a few words, Richard had scared Tony to the point of breaking down.
"I'm sorry, Miss Fali, Mr. Richard. I apologize for what I said just now." Tony was really afraid that Richard would fulfill his promise.
No, it wasn't a promise. It was a threat.
When he heard that Fali paid the law firm fifty million dollars every year, he was even more shocked.
He was even more shocked. What a joke! Just what kind of background did this woman have?
Fifty million dollars was definitely the service of a tycoon.
His entire wealth wasn't even enough to pay her a year's legal fees.
In this society, the rich could really do whatever they wanted.
It was just as Richard had said.
She only needed to call the bank.
The bank would also be happy to help.
So, he had to give in when he had to.
He really couldn't afford to offend this woman.
"Okay, let's start the transaction," Fali said.
Tony obediently brought all the real estate documents to Richard.
Even if he originally had some small thoughts, at this moment, all of them were gone.
In front of a true expert like Richard, his tricks were nothing more than a child's play.
He might very well shoot himself in the foot.
