Mao Tu House sold for one million!

Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly, seeing Zhang Long's conflicted and hesitant expression.

"I was just joking with you earlier, but the reason I brought you here is truly because this place suits you."

"Didn't you say you weren't feeling well and wanted to recuperate?"

"Isn't this place suitable for recuperation?"

"Moreover, there's one crucial point: the average age of the elderly in this village is 90 years old!"

At these words, Zhang Long's expression jolted, his mind buzzed, and his face was filled with disbelief.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "90 years old? My goodness, doesn't that mean many people in this village live to be 100?"

Lin Yuan nodded with a serious expression: "Exactly. Old Zhang wanted to sell this house precisely because of this."

"But as you can see, his house is indeed very dilapidated, and no one would buy such a house, so it has been sitting here."

"He said that there was once an elder here who lived to be 110, and there are no fewer than 50 people who lived past 100!"

Hiss~~

Hearing this data, everyone was stunned, all involuntarily taking a sharp breath.

This seemingly ordinary small mountain village actually concealed such a big secret.

Now, they finally understood why Lin Yuan wanted to introduce a house here.

Zhang Long's mindset completely changed as he looked at the house now.

No matter how he looked, everything seemed good.

Even the chicken manure in the yard, he felt, was natural.

He immediately stated, "Okay, this is the house. I want it! How much is it?"

"Uh..." Lin Yuan was stunned. When he acquired this house, he never thought about selling it.

Now that someone suddenly wanted it, he really didn't know what a suitable price would be.

Lin Yuan just smiled and waved his hand, "You decide the price."

"Alright! How about this, I'll offer 1 million! Is that enough?"

"Ah? Enough, enough, more than enough!! But I have a condition: do not bring your underworld ways into this village. I don't want the Longevity Village to become a mess because I recommended this house to you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Long nodded without hesitation, patting his chest and guaranteeing, "Don't worry, even though I'm involved in certain circles, I still abide by the rules when it comes to being a person and doing things. I know how to respect the elderly and care for the young. Not only will I not cause trouble, but I will also help them repair houses and do things, which is also a form of recuperation."

"Alright!" Getting Zhang Long's assurance, Lin Yuan nodded with a smile, "Then shall we go back and sign the contract?"

"Okay!"

After confirming, the group drove back again.

Unlike the arduous journey when they came, everyone's heart was filled with joy on the way back.

Upon returning to the company, the boss had already prepared the contract and scurried over.

To be honest, even now, he still found it a bit unbelievable.

1 million!

What a concept!

A dilapidated brick house, falling apart, could still sell for so much money.

It was like an international joke.

And most importantly, this house did not have a property deed; it was a homestead.

It couldn't even be considered a sale; it could only be called a transfer.

Because the state itself does not support the sale of homesteads.

But under such circumstances, to still be able to sell it for a million felt terrifying to even think about.

One could only say that he didn't know what the words 'Longevity' meant.

As for this house today, it was fortunate that no one knew about it before.

Because everyone who came to buy a house looked for apartments in the city; no one would look for him to buy that kind of house.

But if Lin Yuan were to release information about the property.

Let alone 1 million, people would buy it for 2 million or even 5 million.

When one is poor, money is more important than health.

When one is rich, one spends money to buy life.

What's more, Zhang Long knew he had offended Lin Yuan today and wanted to take this opportunity to apologize and get to know him.

1 million, in his opinion, was more than worth it.

And so, both parties felt they had made a huge profit, quickly signed the contract, and transferred the money.

Zhang Long left satisfied with his people.

The boss looked at the balance in his card, so excited he almost jumped: "Lin Yuan, 1 million, 1 million! My goodness, Old Zhang thought this broken house would sell for one or two tens of thousands, but you sold it for 1 million."

"How...how will we split this later?"

Lin Yuan shrugged with a smile, "You decide. Just transfer the money to me then."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll call Old Zhang first."

Unfortunately, Old Zhang's phone was consistently unreachable, so the money couldn't be distributed for the time being.

Lin Yuan didn't think much of it. After resting for a while, he took out the Client information and called Clients.

The first dozen or so had bad luck; they either rejected the call or hung up, saying they were busy.

Fortunately, when he reached the fifteenth one, he finally encountered someone with a good attitude.

"Hello? Who is this?"

"Hello, I'm from Fang Bu Sheng Fang Real Estate Agency, who contacted you before. I'm calling to ask if you're still planning to buy a house recently?"

"Oh, oh~~ The real estate agent? Yes, are house prices down now?"

Hearing this, Lin Yuan's heart immediately filled with joy, and he quickly replied with a smile, "Yes, prices have dropped. The one you looked at before has also dropped by over a hundred thousand."

"It dropped that much? Will it drop even more?"

Lin Yuan's face stiffened, and he gave an awkward smile, "If you're worried about the house depreciating, I can recommend a few value-preserving ones. I see your child is about to start school, and school district housing holds its value very well, how about that?"

"School district housing? Are there any good schools you recommend?"

"Yes, yes. Are you free to come to our company? I'll take you to see the houses."

The Client paused for a moment, then sighed, "I'm too busy, I can't go. How about you come to me to discuss?"

"No problem, send me your address."

"Okay, okay!"

After hanging up the phone, a message soon arrived on his mobile phone.

Lin Yuan smiled faintly, glanced at the address, and motioned to the Photographer, "Let's go, to meet the Client."

The two left, got into the car, and drove towards their destination.

Half an hour later.

The car arrived at the development zone, a newly developed area in West Sea City in recent years.

Almost all the surrounding houses were new.

Due to slow sales, the occupancy rate was not high.

The traffic on the roads was relatively sparse.

Lin Yuan drove around for a long time, finally finding a large scrap recycling station in a secluded part of a quiet commercial street.

After getting out of the car, he saw a middle-aged man from afar, wearing a work uniform and an apron, operating a scrap machine to process steel on the ground.

Upon seeing Lin Yuan approach, his first reaction was to ask curiously, "Two handsome gentlemen, are you here to sell scrap?"

Lin Yuan smiled and waved his hand, "We are from the real estate company that called you before, do you remember?"

"Oh, oh~~ I'm sorry, I was busy and forgot. Please come and sit in my office for a moment, I'll be over once I finish here."

"Okay!"

Lin Yuan didn't waste any more words and took the Photographer into the office, finding a stool to sit on.

He looked around. Besides a large table, there was hardly any decent furniture.

The room was piled high with scrap, including cardboard boxes and iron sheets, all compressed and bundled together.

A pungent, unpleasant odor emanated from the surroundings.

But just then.

Clatter~~

The sound of glass shattering came from the inner room.

Immediately after, a small cat's startled cry rang out.

A black cat darted out of the room in a hurry.

However, Lin Yuan inadvertently noticed that the cat's body was covered in blue powder.

Blue powder was left on the ground where it passed.

Under the sunlight, it faintly glowed.
