Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After waking up, Lin Fan prepared to sign in for the day.

“Twonder what I can get after the system upgrades to 2.0. I hope it won’t be a cash lottery ticket again,” said Lin Fan as he put on his clothes.

He had already drawn too many cash lottery tickets, and he could only get a few yuan each time.

The highest he received was 100,000 dollars in cash. To the current Lin Fan, this was too worthless.

He had to pick up the cat and dog for dinner at his house. Driving the Bugatti would definitely not work. The Bugatti only had two seats, and Lin Fan urgently needed to buy a new car.

Although Lin Fan had over two million dollars in savings and didn’t lack money, he couldn’t afford a luxury car.

The dividends from the company’s shareholders and the remuneration from the filming of the show weren’t small but the settlement still required a period of time. Therefore, Lin Fan needed to receive something valuable.

“Ding… Signed in successfully. Congratulations Master for obtaining seven floors of the technology building.”

“The relevant title deeds and information have been issued to the system inventory. Master, please take note.”

Lin Fan listened to the system’s voice and retrieved the title deed and some information about the technology building.

He knew about the technology building. It was right beside the Blue Wave Bay district. It had a total of 37 floors, and he had obtained seven of them. They had a total of 38,000 square meters.

Even if the average price was 100,000 per square meter, seven stories of the technology building could be worth 3.8 billion!

Indeed, after upgrading the system, the value of Lin Fan’s prizes had increased many times over.

Although he still could not sell them, if he rented out all seven floors, it would be a considerable income.

At this moment, his phone rang. It was an unknown number.

“Hello.” Lin Fan picked up the phone.

“Mr. Lin, hello, I’m the manager of Yunhang Technologies, Zhang Jinxiu. You can call me Xiuxiu.” A girl’s voice sounded.

“May I know why you’re looking for me?” Lin Fan asked.

“It’s like this, Mr. Lin, Previously, we had been renting seven floors of the technology building. Now that the rental period is almost up, we want to invite you to have a chat,” Zhang Jinxiu said politely.

“Sure, I have time at 3 pm,” said Lin Fan.

“Alright, Mr. Lin. Our company has a car. Do you need me to bring you to the technology building?” Zhang Jinxiu asked.

“No need. I have my own car. See you at 3 pm,” said Lin Fan.

“Understood, Mr. Lin,” Zhang Jinxiu said.

After hanging up, Lin Fan didn’t expect the company to renew the rent so soon.

If the renewal was successful, Lin Fan would become really rich.

Lin Fan packed up and went to the restaurant to work for two hours. Unknowingly, it was already three in the afternoon.

Lin Fan drove the Bugatti and stepped on the accelerator, preparing to head to the technology building.

The passers-by were shocked again. After all, a sports car would attract attention on the road.

‘When they reached the entrance, a girl in a formal outfit was already welcoming Lin Fan.

Yunhang Technologies’ manager, Zhang Jinxiu, was dressed formally and politely.

At the entrance of the technology building, there was a red carpet of nearly 50 meters.

Zhang Jinxiu was waiting here personally because she was waiting for a bigshot today, Lin Fan.

When Lin Fan drove the Bugatti over, Zhang Jinxiu’s beautiful eyes flashed with surprise. She restrained herself very well.

Ata young age, Lin Fan already had the property rights to seven floors of the technology building. It was equivalent to having 3.8 billion yuan worth of assets!

He was also driving a Bugatti worth hundreds of millions. Lin Fan’s assets were unfathomable.

Most importantly, Lin Fan was really handsome. Zhang Jinxiu was only a girl. After working for so many years, this was the first time she was impressed by someone’s looks.

Lin Fan was… too handsome.

Zhang Jinxiu had a good first impression of Lin Fan since he was so handsome.

‘When Lin Fan drove here, he knew that Yunhang Technologies would be sending people to welcome him. This scene made Lin Fan have a better impression of Yunhang Technologies.

“Hello, are you Mr. Lin Fan?” Zhang Jinxiu walked over and took the initiative to extend her hand.

“Mmm, yes. You must be the manager of Yunhang Technologies.” Lin Fan shook hands simply to show his friendliness.

“Please come with me.”

“Mr. Lin, you really surprised me. You’re so young and handsome, but youre already so successful,” Zhang Jinxiu praised politely.

“Tm still far from success.” Lin Fan smiled.

“You’re too humble. To have the property rights of seven floors of the technology building is enough to prove that you’re better than most people,” Zhang Jinxiu said.

Zhang Jinxiu welcomed Lin Fan into the office and he sat down.

After receiving him, Zhang Jinxiu sat opposite Lin Fan.

The serious business was about to begin.

Lin Fan didn’t speak first. He waited for Zhang Jinxiu to speak first.

This time, he came to the technology building mainly to discuss the renewal of the rent. To put it another way, it was to negotiate.

If the negotiations were successful, everyone would be happy. If they were not successful, the manager of Yunhang Technologies, Zhang Jinxiu, might be in a terrible state.

In the technology building, once one rented it for business, they would have really high profits.

Every year, countless companies wanted to rent houses in the technology building. This place symbolized high-end grandeur, and gave customers a perfect experience. Companies that could rent levels in the technology building earned a lot of money every year.

“It’s like this. We’ve signed a five-year contract before, and it’s about to expire this year. Therefore, we came here to discuss the new rental fee with you. How much do you think would be a suitable amount?” Zhang Jinxiu asked.

Lin Fan wanted to understand the rental situation here first. He asked, “When you signed the contract previously, what was the rent?”

Zhang Jinxiu said without hesitation, “The rent I signed last time was 72 million a year. I’ll sign the contract for another five years according to the original contract this year. I’ll pay the rent every year. What do you think?”

Lin Fan didn’t say anything.

Before he came, he had already checked the information. The technology building had become more and more competitive in the past few years, and the profits it could earn were increasing.

In other words, the technology building was even more popular than the school district houses in Begonia Garden.

‘When he spoke to Yunhang Technologies about the renewal of the rent, the other party sent manager Zhang Jinxiu.

The moment Zhang Jinxiu spoke, she expressed Yunhang Technologies’ attitude.

Zhang Jinxiu looked like a girl in her early twenties. She was good-looking and she was smart.

If they continued to sign the contract for five years without changing the rental fee, it would definitely be beneficial to Yunhang Technologies.

Lin Fan smiled. Zhang Jinxiu was sent by Yunhang Technologies. She was pretty good at negotiation and protected the company’s interests.

However, it was impossible for him to be a sucker.

After some thought, Lin Fan looked at Zhang Jinxiu.

“My suggestion is… to increase the rent!”
