Divine Lucky Star-Chapter 143 - : Kid, you’ve got my lines down pat!
Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Kid, you’ve got my lines down pat!
“Awesome, right?” Peng Yongyan was still completely oblivious to the fact that his bragging had blown up, and he continued to boast, “Oh man, as soon as I dispelled that evil Qi, the Tianjing property speculators immediately started calling me ‘Master’! Just guess how many villas I sold that day, really, take a wild guess!”
Do I even need to guess? The villa gifted to me had its name written all over it, I totally get it!
“Could it be… ten villas?” Wang Hao decisively played along, “And the commission from that, it must’ve been quite a sum, right?”
“How could that be,” Peng Yongyan shook his head vigorously, “If I only sold ten villas, then what the heck am I doing? I’m not afraid to tell you guys, in this one go, I sold twenty-six villas! Twenty-six! Do you get what that means?”
Wang Hao and Wang Mengfei’s eyes bulged, “What does it mean?”
Wang Hao knew the twists and turns involved here, while Wang Mengfei usually didn’t deal much with this sort of thing, so she was genuinely a bit curious, “So your commission, it must’ve been quite a sum, right?”
...
“Do you even have to ask?” Peng Yongyan laughed heartily and said, “For selling one house, my commission is 0.3 percent! You might think this commission seems small, right? Heh, that’s because you don’t understand the real estate market in Zhonghai City! The villas I sold, the smallest one costs seven million, so 0.3 percent of that is twenty-one thousand! If it’s the bigger kind, like eleven million, then that’s thirty-three thousand! The twenty-six villas I sold, seventeen were small ones and nine were big ones! How much does that add up to? You do the math, use a calculator!”

Oh boy, this guy really got addicted to boasting!
Of course, I’ve got to play along!
Wang Hao immediately took out his calculator and started doing the math, “Let’s see, twenty-one thousand times seventeen, that’s three hundred and fifty-seven thousand, thirty-three thousand times nine, that’s two hundred ninety-seven thousand, all together… holy shit, six hundred and fifty-four thousand! My goodness, you made six hundred and fifty-four thousand in one day!”
Upon hearing this number, not only was Wang Hao stunned, even Wang Mengfei was rather shocked!
Damn, her company doesn’t even pull in six hundred and fifty-four thousand in a month’s worth of business! And here’s this little sales guy making a clean six hundred and fifty-four thousand selling houses in one day!
Holy shit, I can’t stand this!
Wang Hao: “…”
Sister, you’re stepping on me again! How many times is that today!
“Ah, I need to go to the restroom,” Wang Mengfei said, ducking her head as she ran out. Wang Hao hurriedly tried to smooth things over, “She drank a bit too much water before coming today, hehe, a bit too much…”
“Oh well, what can I say,” Peng Yongyan leaned back in his chair with a smug laugh, “The young lady might find it hard to accept the amount I’ve earned. But that’s not a big issue, once we’re together and she gets used to it, it’ll be fine.”
He was still boasting when Wang Hao’s WeChat notification sounded—
Wang Mengfei: “Today you absolutely have to crush his arrogance for me! I can’t stand him showing off in front of me anymore! If you don’t do it, I swear my dad will step in! I’m going crazy!”
Wang Hao: “…”
Wang Hao: “Holy shit Brother Fei, please hold back! I’ll do my best, I promise!”
Wang Mengfei: “Ahhhhh! How the hell do I meet such a jerk even during a matchmaking encounter! My head is about to explode!”
Holy shit, this is the first time I’ve seen Brother Fei this worked up!
Wang Hao: “Understood, understood!”
Wang Mengfei: “Brother Hao! Big Brother Hao! Big brother! Muah! It’s up to you to take this guy down a notch for me later! I hate nothing more than people who brag in front of me!”
Wang Hao: “…”
Holy crap, I got chills all over! Brother Fei is really angry!
Wang Hao took a deep breath… Buddy, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but if you have to blame someone, blame it on stepping on a landmine. Of all people to boast to, you had to choose Brother Fei, and he’s not someone you can mess with that easily…
After all, this is the information age. As Wang Hao was quietly chatting with Brother Fei, Peng Yongyan wasn’t idle on his end either.
On WeChat—
Peng Yongyan: “Hey, hurry up, is everyone ready? This lady is definitely a stunner, come on!”
Niu: “Holy shit, Yongyan, is the girl that good-looking?”
Brother Hao: “For real or what? We need pics or it didn’t happen, Old Peng!”
Peng Yongyan: “Cut the crap, you’ll see when you get here! That face! Those boobs! That waist! Those legs! Absolutely top-notch, a hundred times better looking than those internet celebrities nowadays! I must score with her; let’s follow the original plan!”
Niu: “Old Peng is getting frisky again, how long are you planning to keep this one around?”
Peng Yongyan: “Who cares how long, let’s get it on first!”
Brother Hao: “Still the same old horn dog, eh? Wait up, I’m on my way! We sticking to the usual routine?”
Peng Yongyan: “Of course!”
After sending the location and putting away his phone, just at that moment, Wang Mengfei returned.
“Sorry to keep you waiting,” Wang Mengfei reverted to her good-girl facade, walking back with much propriety.
Seeing Wang Mengfei with that blush on her cheeks, radiating astonishing youthful energy, Peng Yongyan got excited again!
“Ah, Bro, where were we just now?” Peng Yongyan sneaked a glance at Wang Mengfei and then laughingly said, “Right, we were talking about how much money the house sale made, weren’t we? Actually, that 650,000 is before tax; after tax it’s about 400,000. The taxes are a bit steep, otherwise I’d have picked up a BMW straight away. Getting a Camry seems a bit of a waste, but no worries, I’ll change it later, it’s no biggie!”
Wang Mengfei pursed her lips and smiled, starting to fiddle with her hair again, “Sure, there’s always a chance to switch later.”
Seeing Brother Fei’s tender gesture made Wang Hao feel a chill, but at that moment he had to play his part: “Nice, nice. That car must’ve been expensive, eh? A high-end Camry, that’s got to be what, 250,000 or 260,000?”
“All in, 280,000,” Peng Yongyan began toying with his car keys in his hand, while saying, “Ah, as a man, you’ve got to be a bit harsh on yourself! So after buying the car, I just picked up a watch on the side, a Rolex, more than 80,000. The remaining 40,000 is just pocket change, haha.”
Wang Hao’s face was almost red.
Buddy, you’re really running out of breath bragging about your weight…
It’s said that fortune is invincible, and today, with luck on his side, anyone showing off in front of Brother Hao is bound to bite off more than they can chew…
The WeChat notification rang out.
Wang Hao pulled out his phone and couldn’t help but laugh…
Zhao Fang: “Master, where are you? Your friend has already paid the money yesterday, including the property at P15-3 in your name. When will you have time to come and sign?”
Wang Hao: “I’m a bit tied up right now, probably can’t make it today…”
Zhao Fang: “Is that so… Well, that’s not a problem. Could you possibly spare a couple of minutes? I can personally bring the contract to you; you only need to sign and put your fingerprint!”
Wang Hao: “Ah, that’s so kind of you—I’ll send you the location right away!”
After sending Zhao Fang the location, he put away his phone.
Hehe, little smarty, that’s what you get for showing off!
At that moment, Wang Mengfei asked, “How exactly did you manage to sell twenty-six villas?”
Wang Hao: “…”
Brother Fei sounds pretty sweet when he gets gentle…
Hearing Wang Mengfei’s question, Peng Yongyan got even more excited and continued boasting, “Speaking of which, Meng Fei, you wouldn’t believe the image I was rocking back then. Those guys? From the Tianjing property flipping group? How could I possibly let such fat sheep slip by? I dragged them straight to see the villas! You gotta see the houses, right? I took the whole squad into the Villa District and started talking about Feng Shui!”
He took out his phone, found the planning map of Golden Stone Town Villa District, and began to explain point by point to Wang Mengfei while Wang Hao listened with a grin, hearing him pirate his speech: “See those high-rises around? To the east, there are more than a dozen, all nicely staggered. Directly to the north, there are eight high-rises but a bit lower than those in the east. On the west, also high-rises but lower than those on the north side.”
Wang Mengfei asked, “Is there a special reason for that?”
“You bet,” Peng Yongyan said, “Notice how all those high-rises are earthy yellow? That’s called using the high-rises as mountains, turning this entire villa area into a classic cauldron-like structure. Those high-rises behind are what you call a strong backing! From a Feng Shui perspective, that’s what you call a treasure land of Feng Shui!”
Wang Hao: “…”
Look at you, slickly reciting my lines!
