My Age of Investment

  Chapter 387 Contracting for Barren Mountains (seeking monthly pass)

  Yu An’an drove the car, led the way, and took the three of Xia Jingxing to a barren mountain near the city of Los Altos, south of Palo Alto.

  The car drove halfway up the mountain, and it couldn’t drive up because there was no road ahead.

  A group of people had to turn off the car, parked aside, and walked down.

  The barren mountain is not high, it is just a small hill, with a shallow layer of withered yellow turf growing on the mountain, surrounded by greenery, bushes, and full of vitality.

  Xia Jingxing looked around while walking.

  I could look around for a long time, and didn’t see any buildings, so I asked the female agent: "Where’s the house?"

  Yu An’an was stunned at first, and then smiled: "Mr. Xia, this piece of land is for sale, not a house.

  Bought the land, just build a house on it yourself, and you can design the house exactly according to your own wishes.

  The rich in the United States, especially you super-rich, prefer to buy land to build a house, because you can add your own ideas.

  Completely private order, each house has a unique artistic style! "

  Xia Jingxing realized that the real estate agent in the United States not only sells houses, but also sells land.

  He pointed around, and asked: "Are you going to sell this mountain to me?"

  "No, no, no, this piece of land is about 10.06 acres, 40712 square meters, and only includes a part of the hill."

  Yu An’an stopped, took out a high-precision map from the Hermes bag, and began to explain in detail to Xia Jingxing.

   Surrounding Silicon Valley, there are many small cities with a population of tens of thousands.

Palo Alto, where Facebook is located, Mountain View, where Google is located, and Los Altos, where rich and celebrities gather, are all one of the Silicon Valley urban clusters, and they are all not far away.

  The barren mountain is desolate, but the location is still very good. It is very close to Stanford University and Facebook. It is next to Highway 280, and the traffic is very convenient.

  The land introduced by Yu An’an intercepts a relatively flat place on the hill, which is very suitable for building a house.

  The foreign girl also came over and listened to this articulate Chinese woman introducing how the land is good.

  "Dylan, Miss Christina, you, as well-known technology tycoons, definitely hope that your residence can be more private.

  This place is very good, far away from the prying eyes of the outside world.

  After the house is built, you can build fences or walls around the edge of the land.

  And, look at how good the vegetation and trees grow here, which is very suitable for raising some animals.

  In addition, you can also open a botanical garden to plant some favorite flowers and trees.

  In addition, you can also build tennis courts and basketball courts, and you can do some physical exercises at home in your free time.

  Although I am busy at work, it is still necessary to maintain a good body.

  With the continuous development of Facebook, the two will become more and more famous. Going to outside physical exercise places will be a little inappropriate, and it will also easily cause some safety hazards. "

  Yu An’an pointed to the high ground in the distance and said: “A villa can be built in that place, except for the panoramic view of the entire Bay Area.

   Looking down at the slope, on the left are all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and on the right are the cows and sheep dozing off.

  In the Silicon Valley full of technological elements, opening up a back-to-nature farm and pasture must be unique. "

  Xia Jingxing looked around, did not make a statement easily, pointed to the high ground above, "Go up and take a look!"

   "Alright, then I will take two of them up now."

  The female agent said sorry and ran to the car to change a pair of sneakers.

  Xia Jingxing looked at it and secretly was surprised, this preparation work was really enough, no wonder she could become a gold broker.

  A group of people followed the path in the grass to the high ground, which is the top of the hill.

  Xia Jingxing looked around and found that most of the area was still very flat.

  Even if there is unevenness, it can be filled.

  "How is the foundation of this place? Is it soft soil or rock underneath?"

Xia Jingxing stepped on the ground and asked.

  "Don't worry, you can definitely build a house. This is the soil layer inspection report issued by a third-party inspection agency."

  Yu Anan pulled out another document from his bag and handed it to Xia Jingxing.

  Xia Jingxing smiled, he came prepared!

   took a brief look, and then he handed the file to the foreign girl.

  Blowing the mountain breeze, he looked at the densely packed buildings under the mountain, indeed, just as the agent said, he had a panoramic view of the entire Bay Area.

  "How much is this land?"

  As soon as I asked, Yu Anan knew that there was a door, and smiled and said, "Twenty million dollars!"

  Xia Jingxing thought about it, not very expensive, but acceptable.

  "Sports fields, botanical gardens, zoos, and villas, these ten acres are not enough, right?"

  Listen to this tone, still want a larger area?

  Yu An’an smiled and said: “This is already the largest land for sale in Palo Alto.

  If you want a larger area, you can only go to San Jose and Oakland, where there are 80,000 to 100,000 square meters of land.

  It is a little farther from Facebook, and the transportation is not so convenient, but the price will be much cheaper. "

   "If you don't look at it, it will be this piece."

  Xia Jingxing is not really determined to be a rancher in Silicon Valley, just making a mini is almost the same.

  If you really want to buy a large farm, a large ranch, you have to go to a more remote area.

  The foreign girl did not comment, but seeing the other person's joyful look, Xia Jingxing knew that she should also be very satisfied.

  "This land is overgrown with weeds. It should have been on the market for a long time, right?"

  The foreign girl asked the female agent with a smile, and set up a bargaining posture.

  Yu An’an smiled and said: “Yes, the client is very stubborn, and he insisted on the price of 20 million US dollars.

  So it has been listed for so long and it has not been sold. "

  "Let’s talk to the seller, we can buy it on the spot for $16 million, and the money will be paid in one lump sum."

  The foreign girl didn't cut too much, but only gave a 20% discount on the price.

  Yu An’an looked at Xia Jingxing, who laughed and said, “Go and ask, to be honest, after you buy the land, you have to build houses, repair roads, and connect water and electricity. This is another big expense.

  If the seller does not sell to us, he may not be able to meet a suitable buyer in the next few years. He can only continue to be deserted and pay a real estate tax and maintenance fee every year.

  Selling the land early is also a good thing for him. "

  Yu Anan expressed his understanding of the bargaining behavior of the two.

  She has been in the industry for so many years, and has served countless rich Chinese people, and none of them does not bargain.

  Even white people have to bargain when it comes to such a large real estate transaction.

  She smiled at the two and nodded, then turned around and called.

  After a while, Yu An’an came back and brought back the latest quotation, $19.5 million.

  Xia Jingxing did not give a clear answer, whether it was OK or not, but asked Yu Anan to contact the employees of Envision Capital.

  Bargaining things, he doesn't have so much energy, and it is more appropriate to leave it to employees to talk about it.

  A group of people went down the mountain, ready to drive away.

  Yu An'an was a little frustrated, thinking that he met a generous buyer, but in the end he still had the same virtue as other rich people.

   "Ms. Yu!"

Before getting into the car, Xia Jingxing stopped Yu An'an.

   Yu An was puzzled, but still greeted with a smile: "Mr. Xia, is there anything else?"

   "Take us to see a 500-square-meter single-family villa, which is still within Palo Alto."

  The foreign girl was puzzled: "Why are you buying so many houses?"

  Xia Jingxing replied: “Excessively, this house on the mountain hasn’t been repaired well for a year or a half.”

  The foreign girl gave an "Oh" and didn't ask more.

  Yu Anan didn't expect that there was such a good thing waiting for him, so he drove off with a smile.

  She took Xia Jingxing and her party to see several houses, and finally the babes decided on a single-family villa with six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, with a construction area of ​​496 square meters.

  One basement floor, two floors above ground, garden, outdoor swimming pool, garage are all equipped, and the house covers an area of ​​about 1,000 square meters.

  The interior of the house is decorated with a variety of woods, such as Douglas fir, western red cedar, and gray elm.

  This makes the babes feel very warm and has a ranch style, so I immediately decided to have this set.

  The price of the house was US$5.2 million. After discussing the odds, Xia Jingxing readily agreed.

  The house was built last year. There are not many people living in it. It is a quasi-new house.

  Xia Jingxing is particularly satisfied with this.

  The United States got rich early. Along the way, Yu An’an showed them several villas. The first one was built in 1908. It has a history of nearly a hundred years and has been renovated many times during the period.

  Yu An’an strongly recommends this set of old antiques, saying that many Chinese rich people like this kind of well-established house. The subtext is to promote and force, so that it is convenient to brag everywhere.

  But Xia Jingxing didn't catch a cold at this kind of old house. He always felt a little awkward. He didn't rare any historical background.

  Actually, it was mainly because he felt that he lived in an old house and was panicking.
