Chapter 591: Luxurious Manor

“Second Uncle, this Chen Ju is now in cahoots with Xu Shaochen. Doesn’t that complicate matters regarding the Special Medicine Formula?”

Right after Chen Ju left, Kong Tianjing frowned and spoke to Kong Biao.

Kong Biao’s expression was unpredictable, and he said coldly, “Xu Shaochen asked Chen Ju to come here just to warn us. If that’s what you’re thinking, then he’s achieved his goal.”

“So… Second Uncle, what should we do next?” Kong Tianjing asked.

“We proceed as planned. Both the Chen Family and the Kong Family are in Jingcheng. I don’t believe Chen Ju would really fall out with us just for Xu Shaochen.”

Kong Biao said coldly. The allure of the Special Medicine was too great; no matter what, they had to obtain the formula.

………

More than half an hour later.

Xu Shaochen and Sun Hai arrived at Hua’e Mountain.

The car drove into the Hua’e Mountain Villa Area, where villas with swimming pools and small courtyards lined the road. The distance between the villas was about five meters.

The car came to the end of the villa area, and the first thing that caught their eyes was a tall, iron gate.

On either side of the iron gate, brick walls extended outward. Inside the walls, many trees and bamboo could be seen growing.

Through the iron gate, a marble-paved road that could accommodate one car led straight to a large, three-story villa at the end.

The rest of the area was obscured from view, requiring entry to see more.

But at a glance, Xu Shaochen was already impressed by the place. It was spacious, and the environment was pleasant.

“Clang, clang, clang…”

Soon, a middle-aged man in a suit ran out from the manor to open the iron gate.

Presumably, because the manor was up for sale, the master had already dismissed the bodyguards and servants, so the man had to come and open the door himself.

At the same time, Xu Shaochen and Sun Hai got out of the car.

“Chairman Sun, Mr. Xu, I apologize for the delay. Without any servants, it took me a while to come out and open the gate for you.”

The middle-aged man approached Xu Shaochen and Sun Hai, his face full of apologies.

“Mr. Chen, you’re too polite. Having you personally open the gate for us is a rare opportunity,” Sun Hai joked, pointing to the middle-aged man and introducing him to Xu Shaochen: “This is the owner of the manor, Chen Sheng. Since Mr. Chen has shifted his business focus abroad, he no longer needs this manor in the country.”

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Chen. I really like this manor,” Xu Shaochen said as he extended a hand to Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng quickly shook his hand and, smiling, said, “I’m glad you like it, Mr. Xu. How about I take you inside for a tour? If you’re satisfied, we can sign the contract right away.”

“Please, Mr. Chen.”

“This way, Mr. Xu, Chairman Sun. Please follow me.”

Following that, Xu Shaochen and Sun Hai, led by Chen Sheng, entered the manor.

After entering, Xu Shaochen saw a few willow trees planted on the left and a small bamboo grove on the right. There was also a small pavilion with tables and benches inside.

In front of the main villa’s entrance, there were two fountains on either side.

“Mr. Xu, the main villa features a living room, a dining room, twelve bathrooms, three master bedrooms, six secondary bedrooms, and a study. The basement has been converted into a gym and entertainment room.”

“To the left of the main villa is the house for the servants, consisting of twelve small rooms, each floor with a living room and two bathrooms.”

“On the right side of the main villa is the garage, which can easily accommodate six cars.”

Along the way, Chen Sheng provided Xu Shaochen with a detailed introduction as they walked into the main villa’s living room.

The living room was spacious and open, offering an elegant simplicity rather than the ostentation Xu Shaochen had expected.

The backdoor of the living room led straight to the backyard.

In the backyard, there was a large swimming pool and a small garden filled with a variety of exotic flowers and plants, offering a burst of colors that attracted many bees and butterflies.

Behind the garden was a small golf course. Although it was labeled ‘small’, even the smallest golf course is still sizable.

After the tour, Xu Shaochen couldn’t help but be amazed. Compared to this manor, could the places he previously lived in even be called houses? This was the true definition of extravagance.

A main villa with twelve bathrooms, each of which was almost the size of a guest bedroom in an average household.

“Mr. Xu, how do you find it? Are you satisfied?”

After the tour, the three of them sat down in the living room, where Chen Sheng personally brewed tea for both men.

Xu Shaochen nodded, “Mr. Chen, I’m very satisfied with this manor. Name your price. Whatever it is, I want this place.”

“Mr. Xu, since you genuinely want it, and I’m also looking to finalize things before moving abroad, let’s consider this a gesture of friendship. How about an even one hundred million? What do you think, Mr. Xu?”

Chen Sheng said with a smile, looking at Xu Shaochen.

Xu Shaochen and Sun Hai were both surprised, not because the price was too high, but because they found it surprisingly low.

“Mr. Chen, that won’t do. I can’t take advantage of you like this.”

Realizing the situation, Xu Shaochen looked at Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng raised his hand, interrupting what Xu Shaochen was about to say, and smiled, “Mr. Xu, please let me finish. My offer is intended to express friendship and because I’ll be counting on you in the future.”

“Oh? Please, go on, Mr. Chen. If there’s anything I can do to help, I won’t refuse,” Xu Shaochen said, feeling a sense of relief. He would have felt uneasy if he had taken the deal without knowing the reason.

Clearing his throat, Chen Sheng explained, “Mr. Xu, my current business focus is mostly in Mg Country. There’s a good chance I won’t be returning to China.”

“I understand that the Xu Corporation’s headquarters is also in Mg Country. It can be difficult for us Chinese to establish ourselves abroad. I hope that in the future, Mr. Xu could lend me a helping hand; I would be very grateful.”

“Mr. Chen, there’s no need for such formality. It’s only natural for us fellow countrymen to support each other overseas. Rest assured on that.”

This was an easy condition for Xu Shaochen to agree to.

“Mr. Xu, the contract is already prepared.”

Chen Sheng smiled as he placed the contract in front of Xu Shaochen.

Xu Shaochen picked it up, skimmed through it briefly, and then signed and stamped it.

After signing, Chen Sheng stood up and looked at Xu Shaochen, saying, “Congratulations, Mr. Xu, on becoming the new owner of the largest manor in Jiangzhou.”

“Chen Sheng, get out here!”

At that moment, a woman’s voice suddenly rang out from outside.
