I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property
Chapter 424: That's So Embarrassing
"You really want a standalone villa and you're telling me your demands aren't high?"
Kaibong is only so big, but it's ridiculously overpopulated, which has led to a gold-price-per-inch situation, with those real estate developers wishing they could build up to outer space.
Of course, there are villa districts in Kaibong, but are they something ordinary people can afford? Even in this Capital City, the cheapest villa wouldn't be less than ten million Huaxia currency.
A group of three or five people needing forty villas just to fit in? That's too many people for so few villas!
The most crucial point is, even if someone built those villas, they would be sold, not left empty waiting for you to live in. Where would you find such villas immediately available, all connected and unoccupied?
He even suspected that Zhang Menglong was deliberately making things difficult for Fat Tiger!
"Mr. Zhang, the hotel we've arranged for you absolutely boasts top-notch service quality and standards. Each room is about 200 square meters, perfectly fine for housing five people, and the hotel provides 24-hour service, we..."
"What? 200 square meters for five people, are you trying to squeeze us to death?" Zhang Menglong continued using his shameless tactics, "Even the servant's family of three in my house has at least 100 square meters of living space, and it's all luxuriously furnished. You think you can fool me with this shoddy hotel?"
"I wake up every day from a bed that spans dozens of square meters, ride a small electric scooter through kilometers-long corridors, then take a yacht across a swimming pool just to reach my bathroom. I'm not asking for accommodations that posh, but you should at least provide the basics for survival, right?"
"Pfft!"
"Hahaha!"
The people behind Zhang Menglong already began to cover their mouths, laughing. The ultimate Versailles doesn't even come close. Who needs to travel through kilometers-long corridors and take a yacht just to reach the bathroom? Wouldn't you die if you were in a hurry to pee?
What does it mean by saying 200 square meters for five people is crowded to death?
Most of Zhang Menglong's classmates have already landed internships, but even those in big companies might earn only about four to five thousand yuan a month.
In Jiangnan City, where every inch of land is worth gold, a 15 square meter single room could cost 2000 to 3000 Huaxia currency per month, and that's all they could afford to rent with their financial means.
If 40 square meters per person is considered cramped, what would their tiny living spaces count as?
Why do they all seem to feel offended?
"But Mr. Zhang, according to you, we need to find at least forty villas. You wouldn't want your friends to be separated, where are we supposed to find so many villas so quickly?"
"Are you saying I'm uneducated?" Zhang Menglong's tone was filled with anger, "I've already investigated. In the southern part of Capital City, there's a villa district called Benmoku New Town. The villas there barely meet my standards, and I remember there are at least seventy to eighty of them, right?"
"This..." Noki Kimura was like he had been struck by lightning.
Indeed, this place called Benmoku New Town is a villa district, recently built, with each villa's construction area ranging from 800 to 1200 square meters, all luxuriously designed. There are already 97 completed villas, with another 30 to 50 to be finished by the second half of this year.
But keep in mind, this villa district is specifically reserved for those who have devoted a lifetime of diligent service to the country and high-ranking officials! Even the most important leaders of Kaibong today live there.
Anyone qualified to live there has a status of utmost importance!
Even including the family members of the Dark Ninja, Nin Emperor, and many high-ranking officials of the Dark Ninja live there!
Are they supposed to evict these important figures' families to make room for Zhang Menglong and his companions? Did he really think himself an Emperor?
"What? Not willing? Never mind then!" Zhang Menglong said, "Hong Yi, let's go to the Maple Evening Manor in Fertile Mountain!"
"Maple Evening Manor!?" Noki Kimura's pupils dilated, "Is that Mr. Zhang's manor?"
"Yes, what about it?"
Everyone in Kaibong knew of the existence of this estate!
It was built at the base of the Fertile Mountain and was so large it almost resembled a small town. Besides the people performing daily maintenance, no one lived there. Even the high-ranking officials of the nation were unaware of who the owner of the estate was.
Decades ago, a severe economic crisis had once hit Kaibong, and to cope, many plots of land were sold off. That area was one of the sections sold.
All they knew was that the piece of land was bought by a Huaxia entrepreneur, but the specific details of the entrepreneur remained unknown because only a representative had signed the land deed.
The mystery had finally been solved—it turned out that the estate belonged to Zhang Menglong!
As for the size of the estate, saying it could accommodate 200 people was an understatement—it could easily house 2,000 people without feeling crowded!
Without them, Zhang Menglong would still have a place to live, but it would definitely affect his mood, and if he chose to take advantage of the situation...
"No, we absolutely cannot let him be dissatisfied with our arrangement!" Noki Kimura immediately said, "Mr. Zhang, since we've already told you that we'll take care of everything during your visit here, how could we possibly let you pay and arrange things yourself? Give me a few minutes, I need to make another call!"
"Alright, hurry up then!" Zhang Menglong waved his hand as if shooing away a fly.
"Zhang Menglong, why are the people of Kaibong so afraid of you?"
"Yeah, why do they do whatever you say? I just checked and the villa area you mentioned is where the top management of Kaibong's families lives. If we move in, where will they go? Can they really evict those people just for you?"
"The face you carry, my god, this isn't just a matter of money anymore, is it?"
Apart from Zhang Menglong's roommates, his other friends were still unaware of these details.
The luxury motorcade that had picked them up had already been quite an embarrassment; could they really sacrifice their own interests for Zhang Menglong now? That would be nothing short of national humiliation!
"What? He wants to stay in Benmu New Town? That's where the country's high-ranking officials and Dark Ninja top officials' families live? Has Zhang Menglong lost his mind?" Upon hearing this news, the Nin Emperor and the digging champion wished they could personally go and kill that bastard right there!
But what else could they do? This was a father figure! And not just any father figure, but a significant one! Weren't they forced just to indulge him?
"When Hui Jie Yan II appears, you'll pay a thousandfold for the humiliation we've suffered today!" the Nin Emperor and the digging champion suppressed their anger.
"Give it to him, give him as many houses as he wants!" the Nin Emperor said through clenched teeth.
"What about your families..."
"I will handle it, didn't we book hotels? Have them stay in hotels for a few days. Immediately organize a group to tidy up the houses, call in some staff from the hotels, and make absolutely sure he has no other issues to complain about!"
"Yes!"
"How is it going?" Zhang Menglong asked Noki Kimura cheerfully.
"Mr. Zhang, I have arranged everything properly!"
"Haha, I am really sorry about earlier; only after my friends told me did I learn that the place is where your country's high-ranking officials' families live, and it seems there isn't any extra space available for us."
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, we will temporarily relocate these families to another place. Your satisfaction is our utmost priority."
"Hahaha, how embarrassing that is!" Zhang Menglong scratched his head, "Coming to your country to visit, and not only do you provide room and board, but your people also have to stay at hotels to make space for us, ah..."
Noki Kimura, looking at Zhang Menglong's feigned ignorance, couldn't believe that Zhang didn't know the purpose of that place. Still pretending now? What the heck is he pretending for?
"Sigh!" Noki Kimura sighed. Zhang Menglong had only been here for two hours but had already caused so much trouble. In this period, they were probably going to suffer.
