Chapter 157 - 157: 153: I Want Them All – Part 2
“How much?” Sophie Lee took a sharp breath. She knew her younger brother was always good at study, and they had a pretty good relationship, but the number still shocked her. Twenty million! What does it mean? It’s just a car! There must be something fishy on his side.
“How much did you earn from that program in the end? I won’t believe it if you tell me it’s just millions,” Sophie Lee said, staring at Finn Lewis. Just a few millions, you gotta be kidding me? If you only sold it for a few million, would you buy a car worth twenty million?
“Uh, hundred million.” Finn Lewis stifled, deciding to tell the “truth”. He wasn’t lying, he really did sell it for a hundred million. He had sold it to Zero. But now he regretted it a bit, he had sold it too cheap.
“Federal coins, right?” Sophie Lee added quickly, staring at Finn Lewis. “Don’t tell me it’s Flame Nation coins, you started a company and bought a car for twenty million, you definitely should have some money left. A hundred million Flame Nation coins isn’t even enough. Also, Company A announced in a press conference that their next-generation phone might be delayed by a year or two because they’ve made a groundbreaking technological breakthrough. Does this have anything to do with you?”
“When was this press conference held?” Finn Lewis blinked. Damn, he is the biggest individual shareholder of Apple, why didn’t he receive this news?
“Probably two weeks ago.” Sophie Lee pondered, then replied.
“Alright, you got it.” Finn Lewis nodded, admitting happily. He could fool his parents but it’s not an easy thing to fool someone like Sophie Lee who’s about his age. They’re all young and understand lots of stuff, so naturally, they would know about the prices.
“Really? What did you sell? It’s so valuable.” Sophie Lee was taken aback when she heard Finn Lewis’s confession, and she couldn’t help but ask.
“A software, it’s a major update for Apple’s system,” Finn Lewis replied, “But I can’t say more than that, I signed a non-disclosure agreement.” Finn Lewis quickly found an excuse to stop Sophie Lee’s further questions.
“Okay.” Sophie Lee glanced at Fishy Wells in the back seat, opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn’t say anything. She just changed the subject: “What are you going to buy?”
“Of course, a house. Going to East Coast International,” Finn Lewis nodded naturally.
Sophie Lee was about to say that the houses there are expensive, but then again, her younger brother has a hundred million Federal coins in hand, which converts to more than six hundred million Flame Nation coins. Even though East Coast International houses are expensive, it’s nowhere near as expensive as Celeston City. The average price was only over ten thousand.
East Coast International is located on the bank of the East River in Hello City. It’s one of the most expensive and luxurious communities here, and of course, its infrastructure, property management, and greening are the best. East Coast International’s Phase Two just started selling. His parents don’t have a house to live in yet, and Finn Lewis had already checked out these houses before he came.
Just as Sophie Lee started the car, it lurched forward, which frightened Sophie Lee and stopped the car right in its tracks. Luckily, Finn Lewis and Fishy Wells had both buckled up.
“Hey, big sis, can you even drive?” Finn Lewis laughed wryly, and asked.
“Of course, I can. It’s just that, um, I’m used to driving my brother-in-law’s car.
Who knew your car was so powerful, and I put the pedal to the metal.” Sophie Lee was also sweating a bit, she just started the car like she’d start her brother-in-law’s Peugeot 308, who knew his car would leap out.
After restarting the car, Sophie Lee gently stepped on the gas, the car started very smoothly this time. Finn Lewis wasn’t worried Sophie Lee would get into an accident. Olivia Thatcher was there and nothing could go wrong. If there was any danger, Olivia Thatcher would activate the emergency control at the first time.
“Wow, your car is so awesome! Worth the twenty million, but what brand is this? I’ve never seen it before.” Once they arrived at their destination and got out of the car, Sophie Lee couldn’t help but praise. A good car can be felt once you start driving, even a rookie driver can feel it. Especially the powerful force, Sophie Lee several times unintentionally went over 100. She didn’t even feel it.
“It’s a more private brand, not for public sale, but they accept custom-made orders. So, you definitely have not heard of it before.” Finn Lewis shrugged his shoulder and said.
“I see. It wasn’t until now that I found out, I’ve always thought that Flying Horse, Eldora, and Fari were considered good cars. But I now discovered, those cars are just ordinary as can be.” As the saying goes, it’s not the ignorance of goods but the comparison of goods. After this comparison, Sophie Lee felt that cars like Flying Horse and Eldora she used to envy are not all that.
Finn Lewis shrugged again, without saying anything. The three of them walked together towards the sales department. In Hello City, there are not many people in sales departments of high-class communities like this. After all, the average house price here is only around 7000 to 8000. Even in downtown, the prices are only around that, and the price for houses here rises to over 15,000. So, naturally, there won’t be too many people who can afford houses here.
“Hello, are you here to look at the houses?” A sales lady came over with a smile. The number of sales department staff wasn’t very much, so the sales ladies were rather free. As a result, they were eager to serve Finn Lewis and the group.
“Mm, can you introduce me to your second phase?” Finn Lewis nodded and said nonchalantly.
“Phase Two?” The sales lady hesitated a bit. This sales department is the main one for the whole East Coast International. The first phase of houses had already been sold out, but the second phase has already started selling. However, half of the people who came like Finn Lewis were there to buy the third phase because the third phase is a high row block.
The second phase, on the other hand, is a group of connected villas, and the price is quite high.
After taking a glance at Finn Lewis, the sales lady said with a full smile: “Of course, sir, over here, our houses’ sand table is here. My surname is Liu, Grace Liu. May I have your name?
Finn Lewis nodded. While answering this sales lady, they went straight to a large sand table in the front. The sand table includes the entire housing estate, including the first, second, and third phases. From this sand table, Finn Lewis saw that the location of the whole second phase is very good, located in the most prosperous place in the whole area. It is also the place with the best greening. Moreover, it is separated from the third phase which is still under construction by a large artificial lake, so it will not have any adverse effects here..
