The ancients once said, "Money makes the world go round!"
After receiving the money, Li Zhao's efficiency was quite high. The next afternoon, Li Zhao came to find him. Other than telling him that he had found ten properties in the west of the city for him to confirm, he also brought the news that their bureau chief would be attending the banquet tomorrow night.
Hearing this news, Ye Xuan smiled. He felt that his plan had taken another step forward. As for whether or not it would succeed, he had never thought about this question.
In this era of war, being an official was nothing more than for power and money. As for the so-called officials who worked for the people, there might be one or two, but Ye Xuan believed that he would not be so unlucky as to meet one.
After telling Martial Addict Lin that he would be entertaining an important guest tomorrow night, and asking him to prepare a banquet for him, he went to the west of the city with Li Zhao to look at the houses.
At this time, the houses in Foshan were not expensive. One square meter was only about 130 yuan, which was equivalent to 4500 yuan. If you used paper money to buy it, it would be about 3000 yuan. This price was the price of the land in the center of Foshan. As for the land in the west of the city, because of the poor environment, poverty, and poor public security, one square meter of good houses could be bought for only 2000 yuan. What Ye Xuan wanted was an old house, and the price was only about 500-1000 yuan. It was unbelievably cheap.
After spending the whole afternoon, Ye Xuan looked at the ten properties that Li Zhao had sent people to find. In the end, Ye Xuan bought eight of the courtyards, which cost him almost two million yuan.
After signing the transfer deed with the owners of the eight properties, Ye Xuan finally had his own foundation in this movie world. These places would be important bases for him to fight against the Japanese three years later.
He treated Li Zhao to a meal to express his gratitude. In the end, he gave Li Zhao ten thousand yuan as a thank you gift. This almost made Li Zhao say that he would go through fire and water without hesitation.
Of course, even if Li Zhao said it, Ye Xuan would not believe him. He would only laugh it off.
After sending Li Zhao off, Ye Xuan looked at the sky and realized that it was still not too late. He thought that he should pay Ye Wen a visit and see if he could increase his favorability with him.
Ye Xuan thought about Little Ye Zhun, who had eaten at Ye Wen's house the other day. He thought about it and found a toy shop that specialized in selling children's toys. He brought seven to eight toys to Ye Wen's house.
After knocking on the door, the butler, Uncle Wang, walked out. Ye Xuan smiled and greeted, "Uncle Wang, good evening. Is Brother Wen at home?"
"Oh, Mr. Ye, please come in. My young master is at home!" When Uncle Wang saw Ye Xuan, he knew that his young master liked Ye Xuan. It was not difficult for him to ask him to stay for dinner, so he immediately opened the door. Seeing a pile of toys in his hands, he said, "Come on, Mr Ye, let me help you get some."
"Hehe, thank you, Uncle Wang!" Ye Xuan did not stand on ceremony. Anyway, these things were not heavy. They were all toys for children to play with. Hence, he gave some to Uncle Wang.
"Mr Ye, you are too polite!" Uncle Wang received the toys with a smile.
Ye Xuan followed Uncle Wang in and saw Ah Hsuan lying on the rocking chair in the living room. When he heard footsteps, he opened his eyes. When he saw that it was Ye Xuan, he sat up and said, "Ah Hsuan, why are you here?"
"Brother Wen, sister-in-law!" Ye Xuan smiled and nodded. When he saw Zhang Yongcheng, who happened to bring Ye Zhun out, he also nodded and greeted him. Zhang Yongcheng did not have any ill feelings towards him, so he also smiled and nodded at him. Holding the toys in his hands, he walked to Ye Zhun, squatted down and smiled, "Ah Zhun, I bought some toys. See if there are any that you like!"
"Ah Hsuan, you don't have to be so polite. There are still many toys at home!" Ye Wen also walked over. When he saw Ye Zhun looking at the toys in Ye Xuan's hands eagerly, as if Ye Zhun wanted to play with them but did not dare to take them, and looked at him and Yongcheng from time to time, Ye Wen touched his little head and smiled, "Thank you, Uncle Xuan."
"Thank you, Uncle Xuan!" Ye Zhun smiled and took the toys in his hands happily.
"You're welcome!" Ye Xuan touched Ye Zhun's little head and stood up.
"It's cooler outside. Let's go outside and talk!" Ye Wen said to Ye Xuan with a smile.
"Okay!"
When the two of them walked outside, the cool night breeze blew away the heat of the day. In addition, the courtyard was really quiet, which made people feel calm and cool.
"Ah Hsuan, what have you been busy with recently?" When the two of them sat down, the servants served tea and snacks. Zhang Yongcheng and Ye Zhun followed them out, but they sat at another table and brought a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. It seemed like they wanted to teach Ye Zhun how to draw.
"Nothing much. I just bought a few houses in the west of the city today. I'm going to find a few construction teams to renovate them tomorrow!" Ye Xuan said as he took a sip of tea.
"West of the city?" Hearing the location, Ye Wen was also stunned. Although he seemed to be living in seclusion, he knew what the west of the city was. Seeing how Ye Xuan took out 700,000 to do business with Zhou Qing Quan without blinking, he shouldn't be short of money. Why did he buy houses in the west of the city?
"Heh, that's right. It's the west of the city. I think it's quite nice there." Ye Xuan did not explain further. Sometimes, the more he said, the more mistakes he made. Besides, even if he said it, Ye Wen would not believe him.
"Oh!" Ye Wen did not continue asking. He nodded and said, "Oh right, Ah Hsuan, I still don't know where you are from?"
"I …"
"Brother Wen, Sister in Law, Mr. Ye!" Just as Ye Xuan was about to answer, Martial Addict Lin walked in from the door. Seeing the two of them sitting together, his eyes lit up.
"Boss Lin!"
"Martial Addict Lin!"
Martial Addict Lin looked at the two of them sitting together and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he looked at Ye Wen and asked, "Brother Wen, I've learned some new moves. Can you help me try them out?"
Ye Wen and Ye Xuan looked at each other and smiled helplessly. These few days, Ye Xuan finally understood what it meant to have a wrong name, but not a wrong nickname. Martial Addict Lin had nearly 20 masters in total, but it was a pity that he did not have much talent. He was knowledgeable but not skilled, and his martial arts could only be considered sloppy and ordinary.
"Boss Lin, why are you so free? Have you found your brother?" Ye Xuan had been staying in the restaurant. Naturally, he knew that after his brother Sha Danyuan ran away yesterday, he had not appeared for two days and one night.
"Don't worry about him. He will naturally come back when he has spent all his money!" Martial Addict Lin said indifferently. In his heart, Sha Danyuan was just a little brother who threw a tantrum. However, he did not know that Sha Danyuan was now at the rebellious age. He had lost so much face in the hall, and his brother did not come to find him. Sha Danyuan's thoughts would definitely be extreme, and then he would do something rebellious.
"You better go and find him. Right now, he is at the rebellious age of youth. If you do not guide him, he might do something rebellious." Seeing that Martial Addict Lin did not care, Ye Xuan kindly reminded him again.
"That's right, Martial Addict Lin. Actually, you can't blame him for what happened that day." Ye Wen also said at the side.
"Yes, I know!" Hearing that both Ye Xuan and Ye Wen said so, Martial Addict Lin thought for a moment and nodded. Then, he said, "Come, Brother Wen, help me try!"
Ye Wen smiled helplessly. He turned around and took a glance at Zhang Yongcheng, who was sitting together with his son. When he saw that Zhang Yongcheng was also looking at him, he secretly used his leg under the table to kick Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan naturally understood and smiled at Ye Wen. He stood up and said to Martial Addict Lin, "Boss Lin, why don't I try with you?"
