Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Tianhua Yipin
Shang Yunyun looked innocently at the young bank clerk, who was obviously excited, not understanding what was going on.
"Host! Silly boy, your deposit amount is enormous. It's enough to let the person working the counter today hit their annual performance target. How could she not be happy?"
"Wait, does the bank have performance targets for depositors?"
"Of course!"
While he was talking with the system, a man in his forties walked up to Shang Yunyun.
"Hello, Mr. Shang. I am Liu Tianyi, the president of Shenhua Bank. I'm delighted to serve you. Since your deposit meets the requirements for our Super VIP Purple Gold Card, I'm here to personally provide you with this card. If your deposits increase in the future, we'll be happy to raise your limit again!"
"Oh, okay! Can you please hurry up? I have a lot to do."
"Certainly, Mr. Shang. I'll take care of it right away!" The bank president quickly processed the card, depositing the 1 billion yuan cheque into the account, and handed over a credit card with a limit of 50 million yuan.
"Mr. Shang, this credit card is for you. After activating it, you'll enjoy a number of premium services. If you make eight purchases annually, you'll be exempt from the 20,000 yuan annual fee!"
"Got it! Is everything done now? Can I go?"
"I'll escort you, Mr. Shang. Actually, we have several investment opportunities at our bank. If you have time, you could take a look. The interest rates are quite high!"
"I actually run my own financial investment company. If I need anything, I'll contact you. Thanks!" Shang Yunyun politely declined and finally walked out of the bank.
With the money safely deposited, Shang Yunyun felt a surge of confidence. Now, he needed to go check out the property. He remembered that the villa system provided in Jinlang Tianhua Yipin was fully furnished with very high-end furniture and appliances. But Shang Yunyun, being from a poor background, had always rented a place far from the capital's fifth ring road. Although the commute was longer, the low price was something he could afford!
But now, in the blink of an eye, the system had gifted him a complete package, including a car, a house, even a company, and a bank account—this had directly elevated Shang Yunyun to the status of a top-tier heir!
At the entrance to the Tianhua Yipin Villa area in Jinlang, Shang Yunyun, dressed in ordinary sportswear, walked toward the gate. Just as he was about to enter, a security guard suddenly stopped him.
"Hello, sir. Are you here to meet someone?"
"No, I'm here to check the house."
"Sir, this is a private villa area. All the houses have been sold out. If you wish to see a house, you should go to the sales office."
"Heh, the security here is pretty good. I'm living here, just haven't come by after buying the house!" Shang Yunyun didn't elaborate further, pulled out his keys, and swiped the card to open the outer gate of the villa complex.
The security guard looked at Shang Yunyun's attire and was a little confused. With his outfit and apparent lack of wealth, could he really afford a property in Tianhua Yipin? He didn't recognize the man, so maybe this was his first time inspecting the property?
As Shang Yunyun entered the villa complex, two butlers approached him. After learning that he was here to inspect the house, they quickly led him to No. 13.
Looking at the huge courtyard, which could easily be described as a mansion, Shang Yunyun muttered to himself: he had once again underestimated what the system had provided him!
"Honorable owner, the villa you purchased, No. 13 in Tianhua Yipin, is one of our top-tier properties. The total area is 5,220 square meters, with four floors above ground and three floors underground, occupying about 30,000 square meters of land. Additionally, we have included two smaller villas for your servants to live in!"
"Hmm, sounds good. Can you check how much I paid for this when I bought it?" Shang Yunyun asked, trying to sound calm.
"Mr. Shang, this villa was sold at a fixed price of 1.3 billion, just like the house number! But once you move in, you'll need to register the information of all the residents, including you and all your servants, as well as your vehicle registration numbers. You will also need to pay the property fees."
"Got it. How much is the property fee?"
"12 yuan per square meter. Including all other fees, your annual property fee is around 950,000 yuan, covering the maintenance of the property, the surrounding lawns, and the two additional villas!" The butler spoke gently with a smile.
"Almost a million in property fees every year!" Shang Yunyun exclaimed. The price was beyond his comprehension. In his mind, property fees were usually just a couple of yuan per square meter! How had this villa become so luxurious, with a property fee four or five times higher?
"It should be close to a million!" The butler was slightly confused when he saw Shang Yunyun's reaction. A big shot who could afford a 1.3-billion-yuan house should not be shocked by a million in property fees.
"Ah! Heh, well, that's fine! By the way, my butler team will be arriving by plane tonight, around 8 PM. They'll be coming straight to my place. Does your property team work at night?"
"Mr. Shang, rest assured. Our butlers are always available. I'm your personal property butler! My name is Molly! We can exchange contact information, and when your team arrives, just send me the details!"
"Alright! My car will be delivered tomorrow around 1 PM, so please help me coordinate the entry when it arrives."
"Of course, Mr. Shang. I'll take care of it for you!"
