Chapter 160
They found the prices of these dishes, and after totaling them according to the prices online, they found that the meal cost at least a million dollars.
This made them more reluctant to waste food.
After eating, they rested for a while as well.
David had the hotel manager check them into a few high-class suites so that everyone could rest for the night.
It was already too late to look at houses tonight as the sales department would have already clocked out for the night. They could not sign any papers today either, so the only option would be to wait until tomorrow.
After breakfast the next day, David brought everyone to South River International Residence.
David’s G-Wagon drove into the residence easily but Jude’s family’s cheaper car worth around a hundred million was held back by the security guards outside. 1
These security guards have been working here for a couple of years already, and they have never seen any cheap cars drive into the Residence. David’s G-Wagon was already considered the cheapest car there was among the tenants who lived inside, so it was only right that they stopped and checked the visitors.
“Hey! What are you people doing? Leave! This isn’t a place for you!” A security guard walked over to Jude’s parents and shouted.
He might not be able to afford such a car, but he did not feel the need to be respectful to people who drove such a “cheap” car.
The guard might not have much savings since working here, but his standards have surely skyrocketed.
“Here, man, have a smoke. We’re following the car in front of us, we’re with them,” Jude’s gather said politely as he passed the security guard a cigarette.
He still seemed rather awkward, since this was a huge city and he was a stranger here.
The guard took the cigarette and spoke into the walkie-talkie, “No. 6, No.6! A Benz G-Class drove in just now, have the driver bring his proof of residence, and come to the main gates! There’s a visitor here!”
“Copy! Copy!” Came a voice on the other end of the walkie-talkie.
Then, the security guard told Jude’s dad arrogantly, “Stop your car by the side first and don’t run off! This isn’t a place you guys can simply enter as you wish!”
Both Jude’s mom and aunt were infuriated. They had never been subjected to such arrogance back in Shu City! This man was just a mere security guard, he had no right to act so arrogantly with them.
“What are you implying, huh? What do you mean it’s not a place people like us can simply enter as we wish? You’re just a security guard! We’ll have property management fire you once we become tenants!” Jude’s mom shouted at the security guard.
“That’s right! You’re just a security guard! Who are you to act so arrogant? I’ll have you fired!” Jude’s aunt helped out.
“Hah! You, a tenant? You’ll have me fired? Do you even know where this place is? This is the most expensive housing area in South River Province! The cheapest house in here costs fifty million and prices can range up to four hundred million dollars! As if you can become a tenant here! Keep dreaming, why don’t you!” The security guard mocked mercilessly.
This shocked the people in the car.
‘The cheapest house here costs fifty million? And prices can range up to four hundred million?’
This had completely exceeded their imaginations.
Their house in Shu City only cost around four to five hundred thousand. Bigger houses in better areas might cost more, but prices never exceeded one million dollars.
It was a drastic difference from houses like these which cost at least fifty million.
Seeing how his words had shocked these visitors, the security guard further believed that he was talking t o people from the villages.
Thus, he continued to mock, “Go drive your car to the side. Don’t block the entrance, everyone who comes here is a big shot! You can’t afford to waste their time by blocking the way!”
Jude’s dad quickly drove his car to the side and waited for David and the others to come and fetch them.
The others in the car also suddenly remembered that David was here to show them the house.
Was the house in this residence?
A house that cost at least fifty million?
He was going to gift this house to their son after marriage?
The three in the car shared a look of shock and surprise.
They were stunned by the sudden arrival of such great luck.
