Chapter 065 This Is Real Bargaining
“Let me ask you one more time, 100,000 yuan, are you selling this house or not?” Su Rui was a very amiable person; before forcing a purchase, he would absolutely first seek the other person’s opinion.
“I need to think about it more!” Skinny Monkey shook his head like a rattle drum. His house was worth at least around 2 million yuan, and 100,000 couldn’t even buy a bathroom! Was this guy an idiot, or did he think he was an idiot? He absolutely had to delay until tomorrow!
This landlord completely forgot how he had been tortured by Su Rui earlier, with his head pushed into the toilet, almost drowning alive! Even now when he breathed, he could still smell the Mr. Muscle cleaner!
“90,000.” Su Rui glanced at him and said disdainfully.
“What? Why is it one thousand less now?” Skinny Monkey was stunned.
“80,000.” Su Rui said calmly.
“Why is it 80,000 now?”
“70,000!” Su Rui’s voice carried a hint of mockery: “Every time you say another word, I’ll reduce it by 10,000. Let’s see if I’ll eventually make the price zero.”
“This is too ridiculous!”
“60,000!”
“Okay, okay, please stop, I agree, alright?” Skinny Monkey begged miserably. This guy’s face was covered in blood, which didn’t look terrifying but rather comical.
“So it’s settled then?” Su Rui winked at Xia Qing and said: “Sign here.”
Su Rui wasn’t a kind person; he never left room for his enemies, otherwise he wouldn’t have carved out such a vast territory in the turbulent Western underworld.
Since Xia Qing liked this apartment, he decided to give it to her. If this Skinny Monkey landlord hadn’t been so pushy, perhaps he would have bought the house at a reasonable market price.
Unfortunately, this landlord came looking for trouble, so he couldn’t blame Su Rui. Since he made a mistake, he should be prepared to face the consequences and pay the price in full.
Besides, Su Rui was very interested in extorting people.
Skinny Monkey’s real name was Li Daqing, a native of Ninghai. Because his family home was demolished, he received three houses and a large sum of money in compensation. He used this money to buy this hotel-style apartment, doing nothing all day while the monthly rent was enough for him to live comfortably.
Of course, many original residents of big cities have this advantage. After the government demolishes their houses, these people instantly become millionaires or even multi-millionaires.
With trembling hands, he signed the contract, his face full of tears, either from being tortured so badly by Su Rui or because he couldn’t bear to part with the house.
“Alright, Xia Qing, this house is now yours.” Su Rui patted Xia Qing’s shoulder and handed her the signed contract.
Xia Qing held the housing purchase agreement with a strange expression on her pretty face. This house was now hers? Why did it feel so odd?
For 60,000 yuan, getting a hotel-style apartment in the central district was almost like winning the lottery.
“Um, don’t we need to go to the property service center to transfer ownership?” Signing an agreement was one thing, but changing the property deed still required completing all the procedures at the relevant government department. What if this Skinny Monkey refused to honor the agreement later?
Su Rui slapped his forehead and said: “I almost forgot about that. Wait, I’ll take care of it right away.”
Hearing this, Xia Qing was somewhat surprised. What was Su Rui up to? Could he even handle the housing authority?
Skinny Monkey was lying on the table, wiping away tears, saying: “Can you leave me a way out? Can you raise the price a bit?”
“Raise the price my ass, shut up!” Su Rui glared fiercely at Skinny Monkey.
Hearing this, Skinny Monkey didn’t dare speak again.
Su Rui dialed that number again. As soon as the call connected, a dissatisfied voice came from the other end: “Why do you always find me late at night?”
“Finding you at night shows that I value you, old man. Don’t forget, I have leverage over you.” Su Rui said with a smile.
“I knew you wouldn’t call for anything good. Tell me, what is it?” The voice on the phone continued with dissatisfaction.
“I need you to help me transfer a property.” Su Rui glanced at Skinny Monkey.
The latter perked up upon hearing this, with a flash of panic in his eyes!
“Did you come to China to rob houses? Just the day before yesterday, you transferred several buildings to your name, and now you’re changing ownership again! You’ve only been here for a few days, do you want one house per day?”
The volume on the other end of the phone suddenly increased, making Su Rui rub his ears and say: “Are you going to make the transfer or not? This time it’s not for myself; the property deed should be in someone else’s name.”
At this moment, Skinny Monkey Li Daqing’s expression was like Zhang Qibing’s, as if he had eaten too much shit!
Xia Qing stood to the side, also somewhat incredulous. What kind of connections did Su Rui have that allowed him to operate like this? Wasn’t this against regulations?
What Xia Qing didn’t know was that in Su Rui’s dictionary, “regulations” were meant to be broken.
Su Rui said a few more words on the phone, then hung up and turned to Xia Qing: “Tomorrow, bring your valid ID to the housing authority to complete the procedures.”
“What about me?” Li Daqing’s face was a mess of snot and tears.
“You? The 60,000 yuan will be transferred to your account later.” Su Rui grabbed his collar, lifting him off the ground like a chicken, and said fiercely: “Leave your bank account number, then get as far away as possible. I don’t want to see you again!”
“If I see you one more time, I’ll kill you.”
For people with bad intentions like this, Su Rui would absolutely never show a good face. He had to hurt them thoroughly, to the bone!
As he said this, Su Rui suddenly released a strong killing intent, which was so tangible it pierced Skinny Monkey Li Daqing’s eyes!
Li Daqing trembled. When he felt this killing intent, a strong sense of unease surged in his heart! That feeling of suffocation, so close to death, appeared in his mind again!
“Yes, yes, I won’t appear again, I won’t appear again.”
Being so frightened, Li Daqing stumbled away, so panicked that he nearly hit the wall several times!
After Skinny Monkey left, Su Rui smiled at Xia Qing and said narcissistically: “No need to thank me, it’s just a small matter, a piece of cake.”
Xia Qing hadn’t actually thought of thanking Su Rui because she hadn’t processed what happened yet.
Indeed, exchanging 60,000 yuan for a house would give anyone a strong sense of unreality, probably taking several days to sink in.
“Aren’t we being too harsh?” Xia Qing cutely frowned, appearing somewhat conflicted.
“How is this too harsh?”
Su Rui could see that Xia Qing was a kind-hearted girl. If it were someone else who had practically gotten a free house, they would definitely be overjoyed.
“He was originally bullying you. If I wasn’t here, you know what would have happened. Now his goal wasn’t achieved because I stopped him. This isn’t what the law calls ‘discontinued crime’; you surely understand what I mean.”
Xia Qing nodded, but still couldn’t immediately come to terms with it, after all, she wasn’t like Su Rui, who was extremely ruthless toward enemies.
Womanly mercy, that’s what it was. However, this was a woman’s nature. If there was a ruthless, cold-hearted woman around, probably no man would dare to have her, no matter how beautiful she was.
Su Rui smiled reassuringly: “Relax, this is what you deserve, and it’s the price he should pay.”
Su Rui didn’t expect Xia Qing to immediately understand his thinking, after all, this girl had probably never experienced such things before.
“After all that trouble, are you hungry? How about I treat you to a late-night snack?” Xia Qing smiled apologetically. Tonight she had troubled Su Rui to assemble the table, then asked for his help in a fight, and finally strangely acquired a house. It was all quite incredible.
“It’s too late, no need to go out to eat.” Su Rui smiled: “Another day, you can treat me to a big meal then, how about that?”
“Good, it’s a deal!” Xia Qing said happily: “Whenever you have time, I’ll take you to the Junlan Kaibin Hotel!”
Su Rui raised his eyebrows: “No need for somewhere so fancy, right? A meal at that hotel would cost more than this workbench! It’s not worth it!”
Xia Qing said: “That won’t do. The price of this house could buy how many tons of food at Junlan Kaibin!”
“Alright then, we’ll find a time to have a big meal at Junlan Kaibin!” Su Rui looked at the mess in the bathroom and scratched his head with a smile: “Looks like you’ll have to spend some time cleaning up tonight.”
“It’ll only take about ten minutes, it’s very simple.”
After chatting briefly with Xia Qing, Su Rui said goodbye. To be honest, leaving a beautiful woman’s room like this did make him a bit reluctant.
Haste makes waste; he needed to be patient.
Su Rui reminded himself of this, then looked at Xia Qing’s delicate face and gritted his teeth as he said goodbye.
When Su Rui reached downstairs and looked back up, Xia Qing was standing by the window, waving to him.
Su Rui waved back, then left in a stylish manner. In Xia Qing’s eyes, Su Rui was bathed in moonlight. Such a night, such moonlight, would probably be etched in her memory for a long time.
…
Song Yili sat in his office, looking at stack after stack of photos, his face full of barely suppressed anger!
These photos all showed Lin Aoxue and Su Rui together!
In the photos, Lin Aoxue was completely different from her usual self, no longer the ice beauty, her facial expressions much more relaxed. And all this was obviously caused by the man beside her called Su Rui!
Song Yili flipped through them one by one. When he saw Lin Aoxue drinking a bowl of beef tripe soup while Su Rui wiped her sweat, the anger in his heart finally erupted!
“Bastard! Bitch!”
Song Yili had been pursuing Lin Aoxue with all his heart, but she completely ignored him. Although Song Yili was unhappy about this before, he wasn’t too angry because Lin Aoxue wasn’t nice to anyone!
But now it was different! Lin Aoxue was willing to eat at a street stall for this man!
Song Yili really felt like he was about to explode!
