The Goddess Brings a Child to My Door, Awakening the Dad System! Chapter 65: Bought a Shop!

"She might not be off work yet. She'll call you after she gets off," Xu Guofeng said, peeling an apple for Yang Qingyue.

Yang Qingyue looked puzzled. "Not off work yet? Our company usually doesn't work overti at this hour, right?"

"Sotis, when things are urgent, you have to work overti," Xu Guofeng said with a smile.

A couple of hours passed.

After the eting, Xu ngyao worked for another hour, finishing so tasks so she could leave early tomorrow.

She needed to get to Lin Chen's place in ti for dinner, after all.

It was late when Xu ngyao got ho, and she went straight to bed after taking a shower.

She was too lazy to make a call at this hour.

"Honey, do you think ngyao is still working overti in the middle of the night?"

Yang Qingyue said softly while eating lunch.

"Cough, probably not."

"She probably forgot, call her later tonight."

Xu Guofeng said.

Yang Qingyue: "Change restaurants for dinner, this one isn't tasty, it's much worse than what Lin Chen makes."

Xu Guofeng said helplessly, "We've tried all the restaurants nearby, and it's normal that those chefs aren't as good as Lin Chen. Lin Chen's cooking is definitely world-class."

Yang Qingyue said, "If Lin Chen and ngyao get together, we can eat at their place in the future."

"If they don't get together, it'll be hard to eat that food."

Xu Guofeng: "..."

"Whether they're together depends on how their relationship develops. We can't sell our daughter just for a good al, can we?"

Yang Qingyue said, annoyed, "I think Lin Chen is quite good."

Xu Guofeng smiled and said, "There were many people with better conditions than back then, but you still married in the end. No matter how good the shoes look, you still have to see if they fit your feet."

"Forget about them. You just focus on getting better."

Yang Qingyue nodded slightly.

She continued eating.

Although the food wasn't as delicious as Lin Chen's, after eating his cooking for a week, her health had improved. Now, her mild anorexia was basically gone.

The next morning.

Xu ngyao ate breakfast and video-called Yang Qingyue.

"ngyao, did you work overti last night?"

Xu ngyao nodded, "I worked overti until almost eleven. Mom, I was in a eting when you called last night, and it was late when I got back, so I didn't call you back."

Yang Qingyue said with a distressed expression, "Why are you working so hard? Whether the company makes more or less money won't affect our lives."

"I had sothing to do tonight, so I worked overti yesterday."

"Are you going to see Xiaoxi?"

"No."

Xu ngyao shook her head, "Mom, don't be so gossipy."

She didn't want her parents to know she was staying at Lin Chen's place tonight.

Yang Qingyue coughed lightly and said, "ngyao, Solina isn't very pretty. I deliberately told you she was beautiful yesterday to give you a little sense of urgency."

"Don't misunderstand Lin Chen."

Xu ngyao said calmly, "It's nothing. What misunderstandings could there be between Lin Chen and ?"

Yang Qingyue pouted.

After hanging up the video call, Yang Qingyue picked up Xu Guofeng's phone and forwarded the roast duck picture to herself.

"You eat too lightly, ngyao."

"Here's a snack for you."

Yang Qingyue sent the roast duck picture to Xu ngyao.

Xu ngyao: "..."

She was covered in black lines. This old couple was really sothing.

...

"Ding—"

Lin Chen received a text ssage from his bank.

Yesterday, he had signed a contract with Tongxin Net to reprint his books.

The second book of fairy tales, with a print run of one million copies, was almost sold out. Tongxin Net wanted to reprint another million copies.

The fast sales were related to Jiang Xuesong and the others' promotion. It was also related to the fact that the fairy tales Lin Chen wrote later were even better.

His fairy tales were now Legendary-grade, and the effects were excellent. Many parents voluntarily promoted them for him.

As his fans increased, the sales naturally beca faster.

The one million additional copies didn't co with a signing bonus, but Lin Chen still earned 5.4 million in royalties from them.

He originally had a little over a million left.

Adding those 5.4 million, he now had 7 million in his account.

This money was enough to buy a shop.

He wanted to buy a shop to renovate it for Lin Xiaoxi as a music room, dance studio, and so on. It didn't need to be particularly large.

And it didn't matter if the shop wasn't on the first floor.

"Beep, beep!"

Lin Chen dialed the number of the original real estate agent.

"Mr. Lin, is there a problem with the house? If so, we'll do everything we can to help you resolve it."

The real estate agent quickly answered the phone.

Lin Chen said, "Do you also sell the shops outside the community?"

"Yes, we do."

The real estate agent quickly replied.

In the past, investing in shops could support three generations, but now three generations can barely support one shop. Shops are far less popular than before, and there are quite a few shops listed for sale with them.

"Those shops, around 150 square ters, what's the lowest price? The location and floor don't matter."

Lin Chen asked.

The agent thought for a mont and said, "Mr. Lin, if you have no requirents for the location and floor, the price will be very cheap. There's a corner shop on the third floor, with an area of 180 square ters, and it's only selling for about six million."

"You can probably bargain further."

Lin Chen was a little surprised. Was the price so low?

"Does this shop have any other drawbacks?"

The agent said, "Besides the poor location and floor, it's also a bit far from the elevator. Also, although the area is large, the shop's storefront is a bit small."

"The original owner bought it for nine million, rented it out for a year without success, and later wanted to sell it. They listed it for eight and a half million and then lowered it to six million, but still no one bought it."

"Mr. Lin, although I also want to close a deal, I still don't recomnd you buy this shop."

"Perhaps you could have bought it before to do so educational training, but investing in this now is very likely to result in a complete loss."

Lin Chen revealed a faint smile.

Being far from the elevator and having a small storefront were indeed drawbacks for doing business, but he was renovating it for his own use.

These drawbacks were even advantages for him.

"Ask the landlord if they'll sell it for five million."

"If they sell, we can sign the contract today. If not, they might not even get five million for it next year, given the current market."

"Alright, Mr. Lin, I'll talk to the landlord for you."

The real estate agent quickly called the landlord.

"Boss Wei, soone has offered five million for your shop."

"Do you have any intention of selling?"

The shop owner on the other end of the phone had a dark expression: "Xiao Li, you know I bought that for nine million, selling it for five million, plus the loan and taxes, I'd lose half?"

Xiao Li, the agent, sighed softly: "Boss Wei, you've listed it for six million, and in the past month, there's only been this one inquiry."

"If you list it for five and a half million, there might be a few more inquiries, but it's uncertain when a deal could be made."

"The overall economic climate isn't good; it might even fall further next year. In this situation, perhaps having the money in hand is the most secure option."

Boss Wei on the other end of the phone was filled with bitterness.

He'd made a fool of himself by speculating in shops.

"Tell them to add a bit more, I'll sell it for five and a half million."

Xiao Li, the interdiary, said, "I've already negotiated with them as much as I can, but they won't budge on the price. However, if you agree, they can sign the contract with you today."

"If you hesitate, they might buy another shop."

Boss Wei said dejectedly, "Sell it. I'll co over right away and sign the contract to sell this broken shop today."

"Alright."

An hour later, Lin Chen and Boss Wei signed the contract.

Lin Chen had already looked at the shop, and it perfectly t his needs.

"Two million left."

"Use good materials, and this money is more than enough for the renovation."

Lin Chen muttered to himself.

The renovations need to be sped up.

Lin Xiaoxi wouldn't need it yet, but renovations take ti, and after they're done, the place needs to air out for a while to get rid of the sll.
