During Those Years When I Was A Marvel Superhero Chapter 284: Buy a luxury home ~
There are always many unsatisfactory things happening in this world. For example, Katie regrets that she did n’t do it earlier. Li Jie showed her heart, which led to her leaving now.
For example, Peter Parker feels that it has been generous for a while, but said that it is necessary to donate most of the money for public welfare, and only reserve a small part for itself.
For example, Gwen quickly said that joining Peter Parker could afford a luxury apartment in Midtown Manhattan, and she moved in and lived together.
Especially Gwen, she feels that her mouth is so cheap. Because the next day Li Jie gave Peter the check, the good friends went out to see the house. And they called Harry Osborne.
As chairman of Osborn Group, Harry has been busy since the New Year. It's been almost a month since he got together with his two old friends.
When he heard that Peter received such a large amount of royalties, he was also surprised. After Li Jie made clear the ins and outs of the entire money, Harry began to make Peter happy.
And he volunteered to help Peter find a house. But he knew some of Manhattan's high-quality real estate agents, and those guys always handed him business cards at various receptions, hoping that the young Chairman Harry would consider his own property when buying the next luxury house.
Be aware that if you want to buy a manor-level mansion at the top riches such as Harry Osbourne and Tony Stark, then all are top-level consumption of hundreds of millions of dollars. For example, the old Norman Osborne Osborn Manor left on the outskirts of New York City. Because of the expansion of New York City, the valuation of Osborn Manor's house and foundation is now more than $ 900 million.
Tony ’s luxurious villas on the edge of Malibu Beach, although occupying a much smaller area than Osborn Manor. But because the location is the most spectacular view on the entire Malibu coastline, the valuation of this residence and its foundation has reached more than 500 million US dollars.
For these world ’s top tycoons, it ’s not a big deal to spend $ 120 million to buy a top-level mansion. There are several overseas properties under Harry's name, all of which were left by old Norman.
One is located by the sea in Spain, one is located in the Caribbean, and there is also one in Greece. These are used to live overseas on vacation, in fact, at most about ten days a year. But the annual cost of maintaining these luxury houses (not counting Osborn Manor) is nearly five million dollars.
This is the corner of the ordinary life of the top rich. Only the annual house maintenance fee can make the responsible real estate company make tens of millions of profits. So those real estate agents are even more dear to a rich man like Harry than he saw his grandfather.
Who knew that Harry lived with the old-school Osborn Manor that day and wanted to overhaul it, or just buy a new, younger manor house? That's a huge list with hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars!
So when Harry let go of the wind, he wanted to buy a luxury apartment in Midtown Manhattan with a value of about 10 million US dollars, a good view, a spacious area, and excellent privacy and security systems. The real estate agents who want to have a relationship with Harry are almost in line to put all the quality resources they can find into their hands.
Even if the house is not lived by Harry Osbourne, he bought it for his friends. But real estate agents are not stupid. They can also afford a thousand marriott houses. How can they be neglected? What's more important is to be able to brush a good impression in front of Harry!
Li Jie can only sigh for these guys whose old faces smile brighter than chrysanthemums: rich can really do whatever they want.
For example, this apartment they are looking at now is located in Lower Manhattan near Midtown. It is a 48-story tall building. The apartment is located on the top floor of the building, with an area of about 350 square meters, seven rooms, three spacious bathrooms, and a dining room and large living room that can accommodate 20 people for dinner.
Because it is on the top floor, there is also a huge sun terrace outside (that is, the location of the ceiling downstairs, because of the architectural form, the area of the top floor is smaller than the downstairs).
The sun terrace outside also looks like nearly 300 square meters, and has been planted with some leafy plants to become a sky garden. This garden just surrounds the apartment. The shade of the trees adds some privacy and security. sense. But it will not too densely block the view of people inside and the lighting of the house itself.
At the same time, a small swimming pool was set up in the spacious area of the apartment's garden. It was said to be small but it was also three to five meters by seven meters. In this kind of high-rise building, it is a luxury to have this area of sky swimming pool.
“The ground materials are made of top-quality quartzite and marble, and all the wall coatings are fire-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials. And this high-level apartment has an extremely good view, although it is not in the center of Midtown , But you can see the panoramic view of Manhattan! "A real estate businessman who is nearly fifty years old strongly recommends this house.
He has thick hair that is completely incompatible with his age, even saying that it can be too thick. It looked like a bird's nest that wasn't taken care of. Li Jie suspects that he is also a user of Dawning Water.
Mr. Bird's Nest is the owner of a medium-sized real estate company. Although he can't compare with Harry Osborne, he still has a billion-dollar property.
It wasn't necessary for Mr. Bird's Nest to sell this luxury apartment in person, but considering that the other party had Harry Osbourne present, Mr. Bird's Nest had to push away a temporary meeting that was going to be held today. He wanted to personally brush a wave of presence in front of the young world rich.
This apartment has been completely renovated and hard-working. It is very luxurious and modern, not just the kind prepared for rich buns. The style of decoration is more youthful and design, as long as the furniture and electrical appliances are well arranged, you can stay. In fact, this house has been equipped with corresponding furniture and electrical appliances, but this requires additional money to buy. If you don't like it, you can let Mr. Bird's Nest pull away, and then choose your favorite furniture and electrical appliances.
“Actually apart from furniture and appliances, if you do n’t like the decoration style, you can also re-decorate. Homing Real Estate can help you get all Mr. Harry. (Mr. Bird ’s Nest company name)” Mr. Bird ’s Nest is enthusiastic Said.
Li Jie could n’t help but look at this apartment and said, “Wow ~ it ’s so beautiful.” He was a little amazed by the full-size glass exterior wall of the apartment living room. The scenery here looks so beautiful.
Peter stepped a little carefully on the luxurious quartz stone floor tiles. He still ca n’t believe it. Is this the house he wants to buy?
Wait, really? So luxurious? Parker was accustomed to living in a two-story wooden bungalow with Uncle Ben and Aunt May for more than ten years. Everything here is beyond his expectations.
"Do I really want to buy the house here?" Peter asked incredulously as he stood outside the 48-storey landscape balcony looking out of New York City.
"Why not?" Harry didn't quite understand why Peter was uneasy.
"I mean, I mean I have a feeling that it is not real. It seems like everything is false. I lived in my uncle's log cabin yesterday and entered the luxury castle today?" Peter used his hand I didn't sign what I wanted to express for a long time.
Li Jie came over and patted Peter on the shoulder: "You think a little bit more, you may not be able to buy this apartment with your little money."
"A little money? Even if I do n’t take the follow-up money, I have more 15 million dollars in my bank account today! This is also called a little money?" Peter looked at Li Jie incredulously, 15 million was almost to Peter Astronomical figures.
Li Jie asked Mr. Bird Nest not far away: "Sir, what is the selling price of this house?"
"14 million if it does not include property tax and purchase tax!" The bird's nest's offer made Peter almost unstable.
Harry looked back at Mr. Bird's Nest and said, "I said that when I asked for the price. The total price of all housing procedures was within 15 million."
Mr. Bird's Nest smiled: "Of course, what I just said is an external quotation. The prices of Mr. Osborn's friends are naturally different. I will complete all the procedures within the price of 13.5 million. And the furniture and electrical appliances can be all. Give away. "
This price has little money for Mr. Bird's Nest. But is it worth it to brush Harry's favorability value with a profit of one or two million dollars? At least Mr. Bird's Nest felt it was worth it.
"I still feel too illusory. Do I live in such an expensive house now? Why should I live here?" Peter inexplicably felt a little uneasy.
Li Jie feels a little funny and asks: "Why can't you live here? This is because you created wealth with your own wisdom, so you just enjoy the life you can enjoy."
"I'm just, I'm just." Peter opened his head a few times but didn't know how to express it later.
"You just feel that life is changing too fast, or that the trajectory of life is changing too much to make you a little uneasy. Is it insecure like a cat changing a new nest? Would you like to say that if you live in Are you no longer a Spider-Man in this house? "Li Jie, the three characters of Spider-Man, said very quietly.
Peter looked at Li Jie and Harry and nodded in silence. Harry shook his head and said to Mr. Bird's Nest not far away, "Can you give us some private space? If it is decided, I will contact you directly."
Mr. Bird's Nest is absolutely omnipresent to Harry's words. Real estate agents leave their property directly, leaving guests to see the house at will, which is really a rare occurrence.
Harry said to Harry after he waited for Mr. Bird's Nest to go: "Are you stupid? What does money have to do with you being Spider-Man? Tony and I are not richer than you. , We are not doing something similar to yours. "
Peter scratched his head as if this were the reason. But what's the difference? He couldn't tell.
"Don't you think the heroes should be down and down, right?" Li Jie said to Peter's heart all at once: "Like what happened in many stories. Heroes who defend justice and protect everyone are always The good guys are not rewarded. Either his wife is separated because of his heroic behavior, or he is destitute because of his heroic behavior. Would n’t you think so too? ”
Peter nodded embarrassedly, he did think so. He felt that if he lived in such a big house, then he would be out of the sense of Spider-Man's grounded, good neighbor in New York City.
Li Jie shook his head at Peter: "Stop it. This idea is simply stupid. Do you remember why I set up the Marvel comic company? This is not just to make money, we use real heroes. Earn money by publishing comics, and then give back a portion of these heroes. Let their heroic behavior no longer only pay and not return. "
"I once said that most of the tragedies in this world stem from indifference, and indifference comes from paying no return. People who do good deeds should live better than the average person. This is a normal phenomenon in this world. "Li Jie said seriously to Peter.
"The media always like to report that the poor help the poor ~ IndoMTL.com ~ The weak help the weak. Although this is very attractive, and can enhance the humanity, improve the moral perception and loftiness. But we must say that the poor and the Mutual assistance between the weak is naturally very good, but we need to call on the rich and the strong to help the poor and the weak, instead of looking at their simple mutual assistance. "
"And those who have noble morals are not simply to sigh their morals and let them continue to be poor, if they can, they can make them rich. Spider-Man will not do good deeds because of the money. Right? Spider-Man will always be Spider-Man, won't it change because he has money or no money, right? "Li Jie's words made Peter think.
Yes, if you are rich, you are still Spider-Man, as long as your nature remains the same! Peter looked at this luxury apartment, he now has only two problems to solve.
The first is how to explain to Uncle Ben and Aunt May that they have bought a mansion, and the nephew they have raised for more than ten years has suddenly become a millionaire.
The second is how to convince Gwen to move into the new house where she will live.
Gwen who was discussing the new spring fashion with Lan in Li Jie's villa suddenly shuddered. Lan thought she was cold: "Do you need to add a shawl to you?"
Gwen shook his head: "No, it wasn't cold just now, but a feeling of power. Only since the last London incident, Peter will think about me every time he thinks about me."
Lan knew that Peter had no secrets in front of Gwen, so she asked gossip: "What did he think this time?"
Gwen ’s face is bitter: “The trouble is that this time my spidey senses is calling the police, but I do n’t know what he is thinking. He seems to have learned [Occlumency] by accident.”
Gwen ’s inner OS: Is this a cocoon?
