Chapter 774: A Thousand Feet Mansion

At the beginning of night, Xia Ruofei and Ma Xiong arrived at Guo Hongjiang's villa on Peak Road.

It is said to be a villa, but in fact it is almost a manor.

In addition to a three-storey detached house, there are several outbuildings as well as huge front and rear gardens, private swimming pools, etc.

It is a quiet and private environment, with a panoramic view of Victoria Harbour, which is almost the best location in Hong Kong.

With such a vast manor-style villa in the top luxury residential area, Guo Hongjiang's financial strength can be seen.

Guo Hongjiang attached great importance to Xia Ruofei's visit, not to mention that there was a Ma Xiong with a similar status to him in the car, so he came to the door of the villa in advance to wait.

As soon as the car stopped steadily, Guo Hongjiang greeted him with a smile.

"Ma Dong, Mr. Xia, you can come, it's really brilliant!" Guo Hongjiang said enthusiastically.

"If Guo Dong's place is all 'Pengli', then my house is directly a wild land!" Xia Ruofei joked.

"Mr. Xia is a master, but he is not like us laymen who pursue material comforts. Guo Hongjiang said with a smile, "Ma Dong, Mr. Xia, dinner is ready, please two of you!"

The two followed Guo Hongjiang to the villa's restaurant.

The long table has been filled with delicacies, and the decanter contains red wine that has been decanted in advance, this is a bottle of wine from Bordeaux, France, which has been more than 100 years old, and Guo Hongjiang has treasured it for more than 20 years.

The neatly dressed waiters lined up in a row, and there was a foreigner in a white chef's suit, a private chef in Guo Hongjiang's family, who specializes in French cuisine.

Although there were only three of them at dinner, it was a family banquet, but Guo Hongjiang made it very grand, not only did the service staff have a lot of them, opened a lot of rare red wine, but also took the best white truffles from the auction a few days ago to enjoy.

Xia Ruofei couldn't help but have a weird feeling as he watched the French chef shave off the pieces of fresh white truffles with a knife and put them on the dinner plate.

The white truffles sold at a high price were finally enjoyed by themselves, although only a small part of the white truffles were eaten in one meal, Xia Ruofei still felt weird.

Guo Hongjiang held the wine glass and said: "Mr. Xia, thank you for your kindness, I won't say anything more, Mr. Xia will be my Guo Hongjiang's most expensive guest in the future! Come, let's have a drink first!"

Guo Hongjiang is a smart person, Xia Ruofei saved the life of the "Hong Kong Island Star", which is originally a great favor.

Of course, the more important thing is that through this incident, Guo Hongjiang has keenly discovered Xia Ruofei's extraordinary, for this kind of strange people, especially strange people who are good at medical skills, super rich people like Guo Hongjiang are definitely eager to go.

Regardless of whether Guo Hongjiang has a utilitarian heart or not, at least his attitude is very sincere, so Xia Ruofei also smiled and picked up his wine glass and said: "Guo Dong is polite, just a little help, Guo Dong doesn't have to mind." ”

"This is a great kindness!" Guo Hongjiang and Xia Ruofei clinked glasses and said with a smile.

After drinking, Guo Hongjiang toasted Ma Xiong again, and then greeted him warmly: "Come on, come on! Ma Dong, Mr. Xia, try Bliss's craftsmanship! Mr. Tosha's blessing, this kind of top-quality truffle is not common!"

Everyone chatted while eating, and the atmosphere of the dinner was very warm.

After three rounds of drinking, Guo Hongjiang gestured to the housekeeper behind him, and the housekeeper immediately sent a document that had already been prepared.

Guo Hongjiang took this document in his hand, handed it to Xia Ruofei across the dining table, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xia, this is a little bit of my heart, and please don't dislike Mr. Xia." ”

Xia Ruofei took the file a little strangely, he opened it and immediately closed the clip, and said, "Guo Dong, this is not good!

"Mr. Xia, don't be busy refusing!" Guo Hongjiang said with a smile, "I did this for a reason......

Seeing this, Ma Xiong put down his wine glass and asked with a smile: "Yo! It seems that Guo Dong has given a big gift! Look at the ...... that scared Xia Sheng."

Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Ma, see for yourself!"

Ma Xiong took the folder, opened it and took a look, and couldn't help but exclaim with a "whoa", and said, "Guo Dong is really generous!"

This is a transfer instrument, the transfer is nothing else, it is Guo Hongjiang's beloved horse "Hong Kong Island Star", and the transfer price is a symbolic 1 Hong Kong dollar.

In other words, Guo Hongjiang wants to give the "Hong Kong Island Star" to Xia Ruofei.

Xia Ruofei said: "Guo Dong, I really can't ask for this! I know you want to thank me, but I did you a favor, that is, I just healed the injury of the 'Hong Kong Island Star', and you gave me the 'Hong Kong Island Star'...... It's also too ......."

Guo Hongjiang said sincerely: "Mr. Xia, if you hadn't stopped me that night, the 'Hong Kong Island Star' would have been euthanized; if you hadn't come to the rescue, the 'Hong Kong Island Star' would have been so seriously injured and would not have had a chance of survival, so there is actually no loss for me, and this horse is what you deserve." And ......"

Speaking of this, Guo Hongjiang paused, glanced at Xia Ruofei deeply before continuing: "And I think Mr. Xia has a relationship with the 'Hong Kong Island Star', and he can tame it in just two or three days, which is not something ordinary people can do, BMW gives heroes, this horse is the most suitable for you......"

Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and said, "Dong Guo, I thank you for your kindness, but I can really only understand ......it from my heart."

Guo Hongjiang opened his mouth, but Xia Ruofei stopped him and continued: "Guo Dong, I don't know anything about horse racing, and the 'Hong Kong Island Star' gave me that is called Mingzhu Casting Dark! In addition, the horses have to be transported back to the mainland, and all kinds of customs clearance procedures are also very troublesome, and ...... I've heard that the daily cost of raising a racehorse is sky-high, and I can't afford it!"

After speaking, Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "So, such a good horse, it's better to keep it to yourself!

Guo Hongjiang said: "Mr. Xia, these are not difficult things, after the 'Hong Kong Island Star' is transferred to your name, you can continue to live in my horse training base, and all the expenses are mine! And it can continue to compete in the future, such a good horse will definitely earn you a lot of championships!"

"Don't don't!" Xia Ruofei waved his hand again and again and said, "Guo Dong, I know that the 'Hong Kong Island Star' is your favorite, and a gentleman doesn't take the favor of others!

Ma Xiong also admired Guo Hongjiang's courage, and he vaguely guessed that Guo Hongjiang should have seen Xia Ruofei's magical methods, so he deliberately made friends.

Rao is like this, being able to give away a first-class racing horse worth at least tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, and I have to say that Guo Hongjiang is indeed quite generous.

Ma Xiong said with a smile: "Guo Dong, Xia Sheng has said this, I don't think your horse can be sent out today!"

Guo Hongjiang looked at Ma Xiong and said with a wry smile: "Ma Dong, how do I think you have a bit of a schadenfreude?"

"Is there one?" Ma Xiong turned to Xia Ruofei and asked with a smile, "Is it really so obvious?"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said nothing, while Guo Hongjiang said angrily: "It's quite obvious!"

Ma Xiong couldn't help but laugh.

Xia Ruofei resolutely refused to accept it, and Guo Hongjiang had no choice but to take this document back.

However, this situation was obviously expected by him, so he had already made a backup plan.

The butler, who had been waiting on the sidelines, immediately stepped forward and handed over another folder, and at the same time took back the paperwork for the transfer of the horses.

"Mr. Xia, since you don't want the 'Hong Kong Island Star', then you must not refuse this gift of mine!" Guo Hongjiang handed the folder to Xia Ruofei and said with a smile, "Mr. Xia still wants to give me a chance to express my gratitude!"

Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly, these rich people are really generous! High-quality racing horses worth tens of millions of dollars were sent out directly without blinking an eye, and when Xia Ruofei saw the transfer documents just now, he couldn't help but be startled.

And, in all fairness, he still had a momentary impulse.

However, he also knew that it would be inappropriate to accept the "Hong Kong Island Star" by himself no matter what.

It's like if an expensive sports car breaks down, and an experienced maintenance master successfully repairs the sports car, and then the sports owner backhands the sports car as a thank you gift to the maintenance master, which is a bit ridiculous to think about.

No matter how great the favor of treating the "Hong Kong Island Star" is, can it be greater than the value of the "Hong Kong Island Star" itself?

If there really is, then there must be other things mixed in this favor, which Xia Ruofei is unwilling to accept.

So when Xia Ruofei refused, his attitude was also very resolute.

For Guo Hongjiang's thank you gift again, Xia Ruofei also had a trace of curiosity, so he quickly reached out and took the folder.

He flipped it over and saw that it was also a transfer agreement.

This time, it is no longer the "Island Star", but a penthouse on Repulse Bay Road.

Xia Ruofei took a brief look at the housing information, and was immediately taken aback.

It said that the construction area was 1,788 square feet, and Xia Ruofei hurriedly said: "Guo Dong, don't be joking, how can I accept such a valuable gift?"

Ma Xiong's gossip heart couldn't help but burn, and asked curiously: "Xia Sheng, what good things did Guo Dong send to you? Tell me quickly!"

Xia Ruofei said: "See for yourself! I really can't accept it, this is too precious......

Ma Xiong flipped through the documents and glanced at them, and said with a smile: "It seems that Guo Dong is full of sincerity today!"

Guo Hongjiang smiled and said: "Mr. Xia, I don't mean anything else, I just thank you for saving the life of the 'Hong Kong Island Star', and I, Guo Hongjiang, am also sincere in making friends with you! I have been idle and useless this house, and giving it to Mr. Xia can be regarded as making the best use of everything!"

Xia Ruofei said: "Guo Dong, if you really want to thank me, just change it to a gift of moderate value! How dare I accept such a mansion?"

Seeing this, Ma Xiong smiled and said, "Xia Sheng, I think you might as well accept it!"

"Mr. Xia, you see, even Ma Dong said so, you better accept it! This is my heart, nothing else!" Guo Hongjiang said.

Then he said to Ma Xiong: "Ma Dong, you finally said a fair word today, you didn't fall into the ground, not bad!"

Xia Ruofei ignored the jokes between these two old friends, he shook his head at Ma Xiong and said, "Mr. Ma, don't follow the coaxing! You have also seen the documents, a mansion of nearly two thousand square meters!"

Ma Xiong was stunned for a moment and said, "Mansion......? It must be considered a luxury house for ordinary people, but in Guo Dong's industry, this is just so!"

Guo Hongjiang also nodded again and again, and said in time that he was quite disdainful of this house.

Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly: "Of course, it is average compared to Guo Dong's manor, but you have also seen the documents, it is a house of nearly 2,000 square meters......! I'm afraid the value of this house is enough to buy several 'Hong Kong Island Stars'! How can I accept it?"

Ma Xiong and Guo Hongjiang were both stunned, and then they glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.

Xia Ruofei was confused, and couldn't help asking: "What's the situation? These two are respected celebrities on Hong Kong Island, so don't sell them to me!"

Ma Xiong said with a smile: "Xia Sheng, you may have misunderstood, the area of this house is 1788 square feet, pay attention, it is square feet, not the 'square meter' you say in the mainland, this is a big difference!"

Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be stunned, opened the document and took a look, and saw that it was indeed written in square feet, because the document used traditional characters, and Xia Ruofei lived in the mainland all the year round, so he subconsciously regarded the unit of measurement of this area as square meters.

"That'...... How many square meters is this?" Xia Ruofei asked a little embarrassedly.

As a real estate tycoon, Guo Hongjiang and his real estate group have also developed many projects in the mainland, so he is quite familiar with the conversion between the two units.

Soon he gave the answer: "Mr. Xia, in fact, it is equivalent to about 167 square meters, a very small house!"

Xia Ruofei looked at Guo Hongjiang with some suspicion, feeling that Guo Hongjiang's words might not be reliable, so he simply took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet.

It turned out that square feet are actually square feet, and the unit of feet is based on King John's footprints, which is about 30 centimeters, and 1 square meter is equivalent to 10.7 square feet.

In other words, this 1,788-square-foot house is about 167 square meters.

And what is very interesting is that the so-called "thousand-foot mansion" often seen in Hong Kong Island TV dramas is actually only about 100 square meters, which is a small apartment in the mainland.

On Hong Kong Island, where every inch of land is valuable, housing prices are the most expensive in the world, higher than those in New York, USA.

This kind of "thousand-foot mansion" is really something that most people can't afford to live in.

Guo Hongjiang was not in a hurry, and after Xia Ruofei finished checking, he asked with a smile: "Mr. Xia, I didn't lie to you, right? It's really a small house, it's just a little bit of my mind, you can accept it!"
