Chapter 330: Chapter 330: If Entrepreneurship Fails, Return to Inherit Tens of Billions of Assets (Three More Chapters)

"What’s going on?"

"Not leaving?"

Chu Chen asked Xiao Liangcai.

Being called out by Chu Chen snapped Xiao Liangcai out of his shock.

Isn’t it just a five-million Ferrari? It’s not like he couldn’t afford one.

"I’ll lead the way ahead."

Xiao Liangcai and Gao Qiqin got in the car and drove ahead of them.

After about ten minutes, Xiao Liangcai stopped in front of a large complex.

"I’ve rented a whole floor of office space here."

Looking at the massive complex, Xiao Liangcai said proudly.

"Isn’t this the International Financial Center in Shanghai?"

Gao Qiqin exclaimed in surprise.

"Yeah, it’s the legendary International Financial Center. Every inch of land here is like gold. A lot of Fortune 500 companies have their domestic headquarters right here."

Xiao Liangcai boasted.

"Shanghai’s International Financial Center,"

Chu Chen muttered. Although he had bought this place, he had only visited once and saw just a small part of it.

Coincidentally, this was a chance to take a look around.

With that in mind, Chu Chen and Xiao Liangcai made their way up to the 55th floor.

As they walked in, everyone was a bit surprised.

It was completely empty in there, where was the company?

"Ahem, my company is still under construction. I talked it over with Manager Liu from Shanghai’s International Financial Center yesterday."

"I spent twelve million to rent this place for a year."

Xiao Liangcai bragged.

Twelve million?

Gao Qiqin gasped, and even Su Chuqing was taken aback.

Who would have thought property prices in Shanghai were this insane?

Truly, every inch is gold.

Just to rent one floor, and only for a year, costs twelve million.

In another city, you might get a villa for that kind of money.

Only Chu Chen remained silent. If he wasn’t mistaken, this floor was relatively small among the office buildings in Shanghai.

Seeing Gao Qiqin’s shocked expression, Xiao Liangcai put on airs again:

"Sigh, my family only gave me two hundred million to start up. If the company goes bankrupt, I’ll just have to go back and inherit a billion-dollar estate."

Xiao Liangcai said with a helpless look.

Two hundred million startup funds, and that’s not enough?

Go bankrupt and inherit a billion-dollar fortune!

Listen to yourself. Do you even hear what you’re saying?

Even Gao Qiqin didn’t expect Xiao Liangcai’s family to be this wealthy.

"Just one floor costs twelve million, with so many floors, how much is the total rent for a year?"

Su Chuqing muttered to herself.

"Definitely a terrifying number."

Gao Qiqin was deeply impressed.

"Not that much."

Chu Chen replied casually.

The total rent for all of Shanghai’s International Financial Center could reach several billion a year.

But you also have to exclude property fees, various repair fees, renovation costs, and so on. That’s also a massive expenditure.

"Haha, not much. You think you’re the owner here?"

Xiao Liangcai sneered, retorting to Chu Chen:

"The annual rent here is at least seven or eight billion!"

"That’s almost as much as all our family assets combined. And you say that’s not much?!"

Just as Xiao Liangcai finished speaking, his phone suddenly rang.

Answering it, it turned out to be Manager Liu calling, he was supposed to sign the contract with him today.

"Manager Liu, I’m on the 55th floor."

Xiao Liangcai said.

"55th floor, okay, I’m on the 62nd floor, I’ll come over."

Manager Liu said.

"We’re about to sign the contract soon, and for the next year, this floor will be all mine."

Xiao Liangcai said, full of pride.

Soon, the elevator doors opened, and Manager Liu stepped out.

"President Xiao, shall we sign the contract?"

"The money can only be that amount, I can’t give any more discounts."

With the contract in hand, Manager Liu spoke.

However, when he noticed who else was standing there, he was stunned.

"Boss, what are you doing here?"

Manager Liu hurriedly approached Chu Chen, speaking courteously.

"I’m just here with some friends to take a look."

"President Xiao, I didn’t know the boss was your friend. Otherwise, I would’ve offered a discount."

Manager Liu said regretfully.

"Boss?"

"Chu Chen is the boss here?"

"Isn’t the owner here supposed to be Xinji Real Estate Group?"

Xiao Liangcai asked, his heart filled with shock.

"Yes, but President Chu recently acquired this place from Xinji Real Estate Group."

Manager Liu replied.

Chu Chen really was the owner here!

Xiao Liangcai wished he could smack himself right then.

His mouth really was a bad omen!

Back at Prada, he’d said "if it’s gone, it’s gone," and it really was gone.

Just now, he had sarcastically said Chu Chen wasn’t the owner here.

It turns out, Chu Chen really was the owner!

Xiao Liangcai felt like crying.

Su Chuqing and Gao Qiqin were even more shocked.

So, this place belonged to Chu Chen!

Chu Chen collected rent up to several billion a year!

Compared to him, even the supposedly unfortunate Xiao Liangcai with his billion to inherit didn’t seem like much!

Finally, under Manager Liu’s supervision, Xiao Liangcai signed the contract.

From what Xiao Liangcai had just said, Manager Liu realized that Xiao Liangcai wasn’t really a friend of the boss, so no discount was given.

"Ahem."

Watching Manager Liu leave, Xiao Liangcai cleared his throat to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Xiaoqin, I confessed my feelings online before, but now that you’re here in Shanghai,"

"I plan to give you a proper proposal."

Xiao Liangcai deliberately shifted the topic.

"You are my first love, and I will love only you forever."

Xiao Liangcai displayed a look of "sincerity."

Gao Qiqin was instantly moved.

But Su Chuqing slowly turned to look at Chu Chen, feeling a bit forlorn.

"I just remembered where I’ve seen you before."

Without looking at Su Chuqing, Chu Chen suddenly spoke up.

Everyone’s focus shifted to Chu Chen.

"Your proposal scenes were quite classic and were posted on the proposal wall at Wangjiang Pavilion."

Chu Chen explained.

When he first met Xiao Liangcai, Chu Chen felt like he’d seen him somewhere before.

It was only now that he finally remembered.

Wangjiang Pavilion was a top-notch restaurant in Shanghai, known for its beautiful and romantic ambiance, making it a famous spot for proposals in the city.

For promotional purposes, Wangjiang Pavilion had taken photos of some classic proposal scenes that happened there and posted them on a large wall.

Previously, Chu Chen had seen several photos of Xiao Liangcai on that wall.

Others only had one photo, just once.

But Xiao Liangcai had several, each with a different female lead, which is why Chu Chen remembered.

"What’s that?"

Hearing this, Gao Qiqin flew into a rage, berating Xiao Liangcai.

"Don’t listen to his nonsense, Xiaoqin, you’re really my first love."

Xiao Liangcai hurriedly explained, now feeling extremely flustered inside.

Damn Wangjiang Pavilion!

Who told you to put those photos up, for god’s sake!!!

Xiao Liangcai hated Wangjiang Pavilion to his core.

"Nonsense? No, I have photos here."

With that, Chu Chen took out his phone, opened the photos just sent by a Wangjiang Pavilion staff member, and handed them to Gao Qiqin.
