Lin Yang successfully completed the mortgage loan. The bank appraised his five houses at 2.5 million, lending him 2 million. Coupled with the over 600,000 he had on hand, he could almost buy all the available properties in Jinling Community.
Afterward, Manager Wang sent Lin Yang off with a smile.
He had monthly loan targets, and with the current economic climate being poor, money was hard to lend out, and what was lent out was difficult to recover.
At this time, Lin Yang wanted a loan, and it was 2 million, and the key was that it was a mortgage loan; with houses as collateral, there was no fear of overdue payments.
He was naturally happy to not only exceed his task but also not worry about not recovering the money.
As soon as a few people came out of the VIP room, Zhang Jun immediately came over to greet him.
"Old classmate, did you see the message in the group? The class monitor wants to organize a get-together. You must come then!"
"Class reunion?"
Lin Yang had never heard this news. After graduation, some people had organized a few gatherings, but he had never attended any of them.
Class reunions after graduation were nothing more than seeing who was doing well, taking the opportunity to curry favor, and building connections.
This time, he wondered if the class monitor had heard who was doing well and wanted to build connections again.
"The class monitor just posted the message in the group. I'll let you know when the address is confirmed."
Lin Yang took out his phone and glanced at it. Sure enough, the class monitor had posted a message in the group a few minutes ago.
He wasn't interested in such gatherings, but it wouldn't be good to directly refuse Zhang Jun's invitation in person.
So he demurred:
"I'm preparing to go back to my hometown recently. If I'm still in Xing City then, I'll go."
"Oh, alright then. I've sent you a WeChat friend request, remember to accept it."
"Mhm."
Lin Yang nodded and accepted Zhang Jun's friend request.
He sent Lin Yang out the door with a beaming smile, then immediately took out his phone and sent a message to Shi Cong.
"Lin Yang has agreed. You hurry up and organize it; he's going back to his hometown soon."
...
Lin Yang left the bank and then went to the real estate agency with Xiao Li to buy all the available properties in Jinling Community.
The remaining few houses were better renovated and relatively more expensive, costing a total of 2.48 million.
After signing the purchase agreement, the weight on his mind finally lifted.
With a total of 10 houses, he could receive 10 times the compensation after demolition. If all went well, he could expect to receive around 50 million, earning at least 40 million in just over ten days.
Once he received the demolition compensation, he would return to his hometown and let his parents live an enviable life.
By the time he finished the procedures at the real estate agency, it was already late.
Xiao Li invited Lin Yang to dinner at a nearby restaurant.
After dinner, Lin Yang returned to his rented room. Seeing that it was still early, he began to pack his belongings.
He would only be living here for a few more days before leaving.
As soon as the demolition was complete and he received the compensation, he could have his own house. He would stay here for at most another half a month.
He got so caught up in packing that he forgot the time.
By the time he remembered the 3YC car lottery that evening, the drawing time had already passed.
He immediately clicked on the official live stream, only to see that the drawing had already ended.
Even though the drawing time had passed, the live stream was still incredibly popular.
"Those people who won are so lucky, with a winning probability of one in hundreds of thousands!"
"Especially those who won a looking up u8, there were only 10 in total."
"Envy, jealousy, hate!"
"Why wasn't I the one who won!"
...
The bullet comments scrolled rapidly, all uniformly expressing envy for those who won.
Lin Yang immediately searched for his information on the big screen.
"Lin Yang, 430...001X."
He exhaled when he saw this information.
As expected, the small car frame number he bought for over 50,000 indeed won a million-dollar luxury car in the lottery.
Now he had a car, and he would soon have a house.
When he returned to his hometown, he wondered who would dare to say anything more.
"Ding-a-ling..."
Just then, the phone rang.
The caller ID showed it was an official call from 3YC.
"Hello, Mr. Lin Yang, congratulations on participating in our 3YC 30th-anniversary lottery event and winning lifetime usage rights for a looking up u8. The award ceremony will be held in Shenzhen two days from now, and we will provide you with round-trip airfare and accommodation. We will send you a link shortly; please fill in your information and wait."
"Okay, got it."
Before the call even ended, the message had already been sent.
Lin Yang hung up the phone, filled in the information, and began to anticipate.
In two days, he would have a million-dollar luxury car in hand.
Before, every time he returned to his hometown, he envied others, with small cars parked outside every household.
His was the only family in the entire village that hadn't bought a car, and his family couldn't hold their heads high in the village.
Now he finally had a car, and it was even a million-dollar luxury car. Just thinking about their shocked expressions when they saw this car felt incredibly satisfying.
...
The next morning.
The first thing Lin Yang did after waking up was to open the panel and receive the intelligence pushed by the daily intelligence system.
Today, the system pushed a total of 8 pieces of intelligence, which meant he could get 80 experience points after reading all of them.
With these experience points, the system could be upgraded to a weekly intelligence system.
【Daily Intelligence 1: Xing City Zoo chimpanzee throwing feces at tourists goes viral. Filming videos there can gain a large wave of traffic.】
"Uh..."
This was another 'smelly' piece of intelligence. Lin Yang directly chose to ignore it and continued to read the next one.
【Daily Intelligence 2: A cigarette butt was found in the stone pot bibimbap at table 109 at the West Gate of Jinling Community. Order before 7 PM to find a cigarette butt and receive 1,000 yuan in compensation.】
Another useless piece of intelligence. Lin Yang admitted he couldn't bring himself to eat a cigarette butt spat out by someone else for 1,000 yuan.
【Daily Intelligence 3: Top Toy's new blind box release is incredibly popular. Waiting in line can earn 140 yuan/day.】
Lin Yang was speechless when he saw this information.
A total of 7 pieces of intelligence were pushed today, and the first three were almost worthless.
【Daily Intelligence 4: In the bathroom ceiling of Building 7, Room 601, Jinling Community, 20 gold bars, each weighing 100 grams, are hidden. The owner of the gold bars passed away many years ago, making them ownerless. No one knows of their existence. You can take them out directly and rightfully own them.】
Building 7, Room 601?
Still Jinling Community?
Lin Yang couldn't believe his luck was so good.
This house containing gold bars was the very house where the murder had occurred, which he had bought for 180,000 previously.
Now the house was his, so taking out the gold bars would be very easy.
Moreover, the intelligence indicated that these gold bars were ownerless and no one else knew about them except him.
Since that was the case, he definitely had to retrieve them.
The current gold price was eight to nine hundred per gram; even for recycling, it wouldn't be lower than 700 yuan per gram, right?
A 100-gram gold bar was 70,000 yuan, so 20 bars would be 1.4 million yuan.
He had only spent 180,000 to buy this house, and the gold bars inside were worth 1.4 million. Not only did he get a house for free, but he also earned at least 1.2 million.
Just thinking about it felt incredibly satisfying.
Fortunately, this intelligence was received before the demolition.
If he had received the intelligence only when the demolition was about to happen, then they would belong to someone else.
Lin Yang glanced at the system level.
Daily Intelligence (260/300).
The system could be upgraded with just 40 more experience points.
There were exactly 4 pieces of intelligence left to browse; once he finished browsing them, the system could be upgraded to weekly intelligence.
At that time, these intelligence reports would come from the next week, and the value of each piece of intelligence would also greatly increase.
Lin Yang pulled his thoughts back and continued to browse the remaining 4 pieces of intelligence.
