A Little Splash

"Go ahead and breathe on it," Zhang Yang said, amused.

Upon hearing this, Bei Jiajia immediately started panting like a little puppy, and after a while, the popsicle finally came off.

"Brother-in-law, can you check if my tongue is frozen?" Bei Jiajia gently pulled Zhang Yang and showed him her tongue. "It's completely numb."

"What's so interesting about it?" Zhang Yang glanced at it.

At this moment, Bei Jiajia stuck out her tongue slightly; the tip of her uvula was a pale pink, indicating that it was completely unharmed.

Wen Yu remained silent, quietly observing the scene before her.

His girlfriend ignored him, but Bei Jiajia grabbed her brother-in-law Zhang Yang and even stuck out her tongue for him to see.

How do I see this? It seems a bit...

"What are you looking at?" Bei Jiajia seemed to sense Wen Yu's gaze and glanced at him.

"No, no, I was looking over there." Wen Yu quickly looked away, smiling a little awkwardly. "Brother Zhang, let's take a look around here."

He quickly walked towards Zhang Yang.

In the blink of an eye, the four of them had explored most of Central Avenue.

After strolling along Central Avenue, the Bei Wei sisters both wanted to visit the Ice and Snow World.

After all, the Ice and Snow World just opened not long ago. It would be a real shame to come to Harbin and not visit Ice and Snow World.

After lunch, the group arrived at the venue for this year's Ice and Snow World.

After the tickets were checked, the entrance curtain was lifted.

Before my eyes, there was a vast expanse of white, icy snow.

Spanning 810,000 square meters, an ice and snow kingdom rises from the ground, with nearly a thousand ice and snow landscapes, bringing an overwhelming sense of awe.

Bei Wei and Bei Jiajia, two girls born in Southwest China, were stunned when they saw this silver-clad landscape for the first time.

Many of the tourists around seemed to be seeing this scenery for the first time as well.

All around me were exclamations of shock and astonishment.

The Bei Wei sisters were no exception.

Amidst laughter, the two sisters cheered and, with a touch of excitement, rushed towards the various ice sculptures in the distant snow-covered landscape.

Zhang Yang and Wen Yu walked behind, chatting idly as they watched.

The two strolled among the various uniquely shaped ice sculptures, enjoying the boundless scenery of the Harbin.

"Do you have any houses to recommend?" Zhang Yang suddenly had an idea.

Although he had only been in Harbin for a day or two, the Harbin's customs, culture, and unique climate, blended with foreign influences, had already deeply captivated him. Moreover, Harbin Institute of Technology, known as the leading institution among the "Seven Sons of National Defense," was also located here.

He had a vague feeling that the city's development was far from reaching its limit.

How about we buy an apartment here too?

Furthermore, it wouldn't be right to leave without spending a single penny of the more than 60 million yuan in rebates earned in Harbin. Surely some of it should be used?

"Brother Zhang, are you thinking of buying a house here?" Wen Yu asked suddenly, somewhat excitedly.

"Yes, I've been thinking about that. Since you're a local, do you have any recommendations for detached villas? I'd like to buy one so I can come over and visit often," Zhang Yang said with a smile.

"That's wonderful!" Wen Yu slapped her thigh and laughed. "Actually, it would be really nice to have an apartment in that complex. Shall I take you to see it?"

"Where? What's the price?" Zhang Yang asked.

"The Creekside Art Villas have a building area of over 800 square meters, with over 10 million yuan worth of decoration included. The model house is listed for over 38 million yuan," Wen Yu said.

"Okay, I'll go take a look later." Zhang Yang agreed.

During their conversation, Zhang Yang learned that the model apartment was decorated by a decoration company affiliated with Wen Yu's family. Because it was reserved by the developer, the decoration materials and details were quite exquisite.

The entire house has a usable area of over 1,000 square meters, and also includes a garden of 500 to 600 square meters.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, it's simply unbeatable.

As for why it hasn't sold yet, it's simply because, for truly wealthy people in Harbin, spending thirty or forty million to buy this place is less appealing than...

But for Zhang Yang, none of these problems exist.

Having seen countless mansions worth hundreds of millions, and even owning several mansions worth over 100 million, a detached villa worth 30 to 40 million plus 10 million for renovations seems incredibly cheap!

In the distance, Bei Wei, wrapped in a down jacket, jogged over.

Her little face under the scarf was flushed.

"It's like a dream!" She pulled Zhang Yang along, "Honey, come with me..."

In the distance, nestled among the ice-sculpted castle, Bei Jiajia also appeared, waving from afar.

"Brother-in-law..."

Zhang Yang smiled and followed Bei Wei into the icy kingdom ahead.

Wen Yu stood there, looking at the figure in the distance, shook her head and smiled, "Brother Zhang, that's what life is all about, that's what you call having multiple wives and a blessed life!"

Later, after queuing up to ride the Ice and Snow World.

"That was so exciting..."

"I'll come again next time..."

Zhang Yang overheard the sisters' laughter and conversation.

"Come here," Zhang Yang said with a smile, beckoning.

"What's wrong, honey?" Bei Wei asked, her face still flushed with excitement.

"Do you like it here?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile.

"I really love it. I wish I could come here every winter." Bei Wei smiled, hugged Zhang Yang's waist, and looked up at him, saying, "How about we come again next year? Or... maybe we can come every year around this time."

"Huh? They're showing off their love again." Bei Jiajia exclaimed, "What's wrong with coming every year if my brother-in-law wants to?"

"We don't have any other plans this afternoon, let's go look at some houses together," Zhang Yang suddenly said with a smile. "Buying a house here will make it more convenient for us to come visit in the future."

Bei Wei and Bei Jiajia were both taken aback.

Especially Bei Jiajia.

"Brother-in-law, do you have to stop this? Buying a house without warning..." Bei Jiajia was stunned and exclaimed in shock.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Zhang really cares about you." Wen Yu said with a smile.

Looking at Zhang Yang smiling in front of her, Bei Wei felt as if she were immersed in an ocean of happiness.

"Really? Are you really going to buy a house in Harbin?"

"Of course it's true! Let's go take a look." Zhang Yang said with a smile, "Wen Yu recommended it. Since he said it's very good, it must be excellent."

Later, after visiting the Ice and Snow World.

The group of four, in a Phantom, headed straight for Creekside Art Villas.

Creekside Art Villas is located in Daoli District Qunli New District, Daoli District. It is a new villa community completed in 2019. The surrounding facilities are complete. Within one kilometer, there are Intime City Shopping Center and Wangfujing Shopping Center. There are also large comprehensive hospitals and parks nearby.

However, for Zhang Yang, everything was fine.

When he buys a house now, he just looks at it from the angle and considers the comfort of living. After all, once the price of a luxury house rises to a certain level, other things don't really matter.

Around 3 or 4 PM, at the sales office of Creekside Art Villas.

As soon as the Phantom stopped, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, surrounded by smiles, jogged over from the sales office.

"Hello, Mr. Wen, welcome, welcome."

"Brother, this is Old Liu, the sales director here. He's a nice guy," Wen Yu introduced with a smile. "Old Liu, my brother Zhang is looking at apartments today, so you'd better make a good impression."

"Yes, absolutely." Old Liu nodded and bowed, handing over his business card. "Hello, Mr. Zhang, this way please."

Zhang Yang nodded and led the Bei Wei sisters out of the car.

Actually, for him, the houses weren't anything special. After all, no matter how big a house was, could it be as big as Beijing Manor? And no matter how good the decoration was, could it be as good Peach Blossom Spring that he had renovated with the Hong Kong Island Zheng Zhong Design Studio at a cost of over 100 million?

However, somewhat to his surprise, this place, which is currently considered the pinnacle of luxury housing in Harbin, exceeded his expectations.

Beneath the snow, the villa was covered in a blanket of white, its private garden of five or six hundred square meters serene and tranquil. Although it lacked grandeur and magnificence, considering its price of only thirty or forty million, wow... it was truly beautiful.

Several people strolled leisurely through the snow.

Sales Director Old Liu took the opportunity to introduce the products and services at opportune moments.

For example, the villa boasts a usable area of nearly 1,200 square meters, spanning four floors. Furthermore, it faces a wetland park directly in front of the villa. And then there's the Italian-style decor throughout, entirely custom-made, with a style that's not only elegant but also surprisingly dreamlike.

Looking at the house alone, the total price in Magic City would be several times higher, but in Harbin, this price is indeed difficult to achieve.

Unless you meet the right person.

"This place... it's simply amazing." Bei Jiajia couldn't contain her praise.

Especially now, as dusk approaches, the golden sunset streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows on the ground floor illuminates the dining table and sofa, creating a warm and inviting palatial atmosphere.

Although Bei Wei didn't speak, her eyes clearly gleamed with admiration as she stood beside her.

They ascended the golden spiral staircase, exploring every corner, room, and functional area of the villa, fully appreciating its inner workings.

"Brother-in-law, go for it! There's no question about this place," Bei Jiajia said excitedly, climbing up and down the stairs.

Zhang Yang genuinely had no idea what she was so excited about, but he kept these thoughts to himself, afraid of discouraging Bei Jiajia from speaking them aloud.

"What do you think?" he asked, looking at Bei Wei.

"Of course it's a good house, it's just the price..." Bei Wei's eyes sparkled.

Zhang Yang smiled.

Why are you talking about prices? He made over 60 million last night alone; he wouldn't feel comfortable not spending some of it.

"Let's do it here then," Zhang Yang said casually.

"Huh?" Old Liu was taken aback.

He clearly hadn't expected that this distinguished guest would make a decision after just one look around.

"Brother, I knew you'd like it," Wen Yu said with a smile. "I'll make a call."

Although he was impressed by Zhang Yang's wealth, he wasn't overly shocked. He already knew that Zhang Yang's wealth was immense, and a mere thirty or forty million was nothing to him.

He made several phone calls in front of Zhang Yang.

At last··

"Old Liu, answer the phone." He held up his phone and looked at Sales Director Old Liu.

Upon hearing this, Old Liu quickly took the phone.

"Mr. Zhou, yes, yes, um, okay, okay." He nodded repeatedly, then respectfully handed the phone to Wen Yu.

"Did your boss explain it to you clearly?" Wen Yu asked with a smile.

"Understood, understood." Old Liu nodded repeatedly, then said to Zhang Yang, "Mr. Zhang, our boss instructed that this set is worth thirty million."

"Thirty million? I think it was less than thirty-eight million?" Zhang Yang looked at Wen Yu in surprise. "You little rascal, you're something else. This isn't bargaining, you're practically giving me money in a roundabout way, aren't you?"

The developer might give them a discount out of consideration for Wen Yu's family.

But to say that a sudden price cut of seven or eight million is impossible. The only possibility is that Wen Yu has to bear all the costs.

After all, I've heard that their renovation company also does business with this place.

"Brother, you don't need to worry about these things. As long as you're satisfied with the house, that's all that matters," Wen Yu said.

Zhang Yang looked at the sincere-looking young man and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Bite!

The system has triggered a random event.

Event Name: A Gift in Return for a Gift

Target identified: Wen Yu

The host can grant Wen Yu any wish that costs up to ten million, and the system will reimburse the host and return the equivalent amount to the host's account.

Zhang Yang was slightly taken aback, but then it dawned on him.

Excellent, excellent. He had been planning to return the favor anyway, and now the system had given him a perfect opportunity to reciprocate. It couldn't be better. It meant that by giving Wen Yu anything under ten million, he not only didn't spend a penny, but the system also gave him an extra cashback amount.

This is such a great opportunity, we absolutely have to seize it!

He suddenly remembered that when he casually browsed Wen Yu's WeChat Moments before, he saw that Wen Yu had mentioned that he couldn't forget a Jaeger-LeCoultre -LeCoultre Master Collection watch.

I forgot the exact model number, but it seemed to cost around six or seven million. I'll check the details later.

"Okay, I appreciate your kindness." Zhang Yang nodded without saying anything more.

Upon hearing Zhang Yang's words, Wen Yu was overjoyed.

Since we've decided to buy, let's not waste any more time and just go through the proper procedures to purchase the house.

A moment later, inside the sales office, Zhang Yang picked up a pen, quickly wrote down the names of the properties, and then swiped the 30 million yuan cash payment to buy the fully furnished detached villa.

From viewing the property to completing the purchase process and making the payment, the group left the sales office around 5:30 PM.

"Brother Zhang, you can bring your wife to Harbin more often when you have time," Wen Yu said, accompanying them the whole way. "Apart from winter, Harbin is a lot of fun to visit at any other time. This trip was too short, but I'll show you around properly next time you come."

"Really? Then come again next time," Zhang Yang said with a smile.

Anyway, now that he's bought a house in Harbin, he has a home, plus a private jet. Although it 'Magic City, it's almost like being in a neighboring city to him.

It's very convenient to come and go.

As evening approached, he realized that Zhang Yang was planning to take Bei Wei and the others shopping, so he took them to Zhuozhan Shopping Center, the most upscale shopping mall in Harbin.

Then, sensing the situation, he took his leave.

"Brother, call me when it's over, I'll come pick you up," Wen Yu said.

"Go ahead and do your thing, are you really acting like a chauffeur?" Zhang Yang said, amused. "Go on, I won't bother you anymore."

Wen Yu smiled shyly, then left first.

"Brother-in-law, that Wen Yu is really sucking up to you. Could it be that he indirectly gave you those millions that made the house cheaper?" As soon as the man left, Bei Jiajia couldn't help but ask.

"How dare you speak like that? This is just how they treat guests, and you turn it into licking their boots?" Zhang Yang said with a laugh.
