Chapter 515: Local Tyrant? (b)
"You, you...... You're going too far!! β
Walking out of the riverside mansion, Chen Mu shook hands with the landlord with a smile, while listening to Iguodala "denounce" not far from his side.
"Do you want to be such a tyrant? Say buy it, just buy it, you have a lot of money! β
Although the words sounded like complaining, Chen Mu knew that the good brother was expressing his congratulations in his unique way.
When the landlord looked back, Iguodala was really looking at him with a smile, his finger still pointing at Chen Mu, and his mouth kept babbling.
"What a house, what a house!"
Chen Mu believes that if he hadn't suddenly made up his mind today and signed a contract of intent with the landlord on the spot, Iguodala would have taken the house after saying that he would have to think about it again, but it wouldn't be long before he would have taken the house.
"Haha, you've been in Philadelphia for a long time, there are many doors, and there are many good houses, so why don't you buy another one?" Chen Mu smiled and patted Iguodala on the shoulder: "I think the building next door is good, in the future, we will live next door, and when we are free, the two families will sit down and play mahjong together!" β
"Nope."
Who knew that for Chen Mu's joke, Iguodala actually shook his head with a serious face.
"Why?"
Chen Mu asked puzzled.
"Mahjong is so difficult!"
Chen Mu fainted.
Buying a house in the U.S. is not the same as we are back home. Although the two parties will also sign a contract and have a general price range, the price fluctuation range is more frequent than in China.
Unlike in China, if the two parties agree on the price, they cannot go back. Even if the price of the house skyrockets the next day after signing the contract, the landlord cannot unilaterally tear up the contract, which is legally responsible.
In the United States, buyers and sellers typically sign two or three contracts. The first is the preliminary intent, which determines the information of the buyer and seller, the intention and other information.
The second is the upfront agreement. Agree on the transaction time, relocation time, handover time and other information.
The third is the formal contract, which is usually signed on the day of handover, and the price marked on it is also determined according to the latest price trend.
The housing prices in Philadelphia are not very high, and compared with cities of the same grade in China, it can be said that it is a jump price. But as a major eastern town, Philadelphia's home prices fluctuate quite widely. Often, it is a price today, and a different price tomorrow.
Chen Mu is not very clear about the approximate range of housing prices in Philadelphia. Fortunately, with Iguodala, an all-powerful guy by his side, he didn't get too much of a pit from this landlord and suffered a bloody loss.
But then again, the landlord himself is a super sports fan, and the price given to Chen Mu will not be too dark. Of course, the spirit of contract in the United States is still very strong, feelings are feelings, and transactions are transactions. Even if the object is Oba, it's time to officially sign the contract. There won't be too many concessions on price either.
"The price is decent, it's not bad!"
Finally, Iguodala commented on Chen Mu's intention to buy.
The house is done, according to the original landlord's room decoration to a fine degree. Chen Mu can basically move in with his bag. It's just that moving to the river, it's a little farther away from the team center and the Wajovia Center arena. If you really want to live here, you can't keep walking.
And Chen Mu's rented place before. Just between Iguodala's house and the stadium, Iguodala's car can be used to get to the stadium from time to time. Now that the route has changed, let the good brother take a special detour to pick him up every day. Chen Mu can't do this kind of thing, so another thing is very important.
"Let's go, watch the car!"
Although Iguodala is very arrogant, he is definitely not a fool, and even has more contact with Iguodala, Chen Mu knows that this guy just looks direct. In terms of IQ, there is no one in the alliance, and it belongs to the type of wise and foolish.
Seeing that Chen Mu had finished the house, Iguodala of course knew what to do next, so he got in the car and pulled Chen Mu directly to the car dealership.
"When will I get my driver's license?"
On the way, Iguodala asked Chen Mu.
"...... after the end of the season?" Chen Mu himself is also a little unsure, and it seems a bit of a waste of energy to learn to drive during the season.
"Whatever you want, anyway, you won't move over immediately in a short time, look at the model today, and I'll talk about the price for you." Then pay a deposit and wait until it's time to use the car! Iguodala gave advice.
When he came to the Cadillac comptoir that he had been to once before, at the suggestion of Iguodala (Chen Mu even doubted for a while that Iguodala had a stake in the firm, and that he could get a commission for selling a car - this was of course a joke), Chen Mu set the model, which belonged to Cadillac's new luxury car, but the appearance looked relatively low-key than the old one, but it looked sharper.
After completing the formalities and several major things, Chen Mu let out a sigh of relief and returned to the rented residence with Iguodala talking and laughing.
"It's a lot of money for a day today, local tyrant!"
Coming downstairs, Iguodala said with a smile to Chen Mu.
"The money has to be spent, otherwise why keep it?" Chen Mu smiled.
"You Chinese not very particular about that...... Filial piety? Don't leave some for your parents? "Iguodala is sowing discord.
"Nonsense, do you still need to say this?" Chen Mu rolled his eyes and said: "Every year, part of the income is given to my parents, and the house and everything are bought for them!" β
"Yo! A tyrant is a tyrant! Ha ha! Iguodala smiled and slapped Chen Mu and said, "It's also a villa?" β
"They can't get used to that." Chen Mu shook his head and said, "Apartment, community apartment building." β
"You are such a tyrant, have you bought several mansions and opened up a big mansion??" Iguodala smirked.
"No, the house can't be knocked on randomly, in case it affects the safety of the structure. The housing prices in my hometown are very cheap, the town is small, the economy is not developed, and there is not much money. Chen Mu shook his head and said, "I bought them a building." β
After saying this, ignoring Iguodala's shocked look, Chen Mu got out of the car, waved his hand to his good brother, and walked upstairs.
ββ¦β¦ Local tyrants! β
It wasn't until Chen Mu went upstairs and couldn't see the shadow that Iguodala came back to his senses and scolded resentfully.
Back home, Chen Mu couldn't wait to take out his mobile phone, click on Su Yin's text message list, and send a few photos taken in the new house today.
"Wow! Mansions! Who's going to be a guest? Is Aaron back? β
Xiao Nizi replied with a text message, followed by a star-eyed expression.
"The Chen family's mansion. Vacant seats. β
Chen Mu replied to the text message with a smile, adding a victorious expression.
"Brother Mu has become a family with a house, congratulations!"
Xiao Nizi came back with a text message, accompanied by a clapping emoji.
"I haven't completed the transaction yet, so I'm not going to move in a short time, so I'll talk about it later."
Chen Mu returned.
"When I come to Philadelphia, Brother Mu will invite me to my new home to play!"
Little Nizi returned.
"I don't."
Chen Mu replied, and after a while, Su Yin's text message back only had a crying expression. Chen Mu smiled, his fingers tapping on the screen. I edited the text message, but I didn't send it for a long time.
Do you want to send it?
It's going to be sent!
If you coax it at this time, it's too bold!
Hair!
With a "drop" click, Chen Mu immediately put the phone aside, closed his eyes, and didn't even dare to look at the phone screen.
"Ding Ling"
After a while, a reply came.
"Play your game, big bad!"
Although an exclamation point is used, it is after the exclamation mark. But it was followed by a blushing expression.
Is it done??
It's done!!
But I still haven't answered very clearly, next time...... Looking for a chance to confess?
No matter, no objection anyway!
βYESοΌβ
Chen Mu raised his arms and shouted, as if he had thrown into a lore. Throwing his phone aside, he didn't stop swinging his fist on the bed like a madman.
On the mobile phone screen, the last text message sent by Chen Mu was not long, only one sentence.
"I'm not going to invite you to play. Because I want you to come over. β
Across the globe, in the east and west of the United States, the hearts of young men and women are pounding.
this night. It's so intoxicating, the air seems to be all sweet, full of tenderness and sweetness.
The next day, Philadelphia Airport.
βREADY-TO-SAILοΌβ
Carney walked at the front, shouting like a leader, drawing laughter from his teammates.
10 days, 6 away games, the grueling road trip begins.
The Philadelphia 76ers are about to fly all over the United States and challenge tough opponents in a row. This included a brutal back-to-back (a rarity in a non-shrinking season due to the weather) that put the players up in a great physical challenge.
With 12 straight wins to start the season, the Philadelphia 76ers got off to the best start in franchise history. Now, whether this winning streak can continue has become the focus of everyone's attention.
The most eye-catching thing on this road trip was to challenge the Nuggets, who got Billups on the Denver Plateau, with soaring records and explosive combat effectiveness. The rivalry between two teams with brutal firepower and physical talent got the opportunity to broadcast live across the United States.
Soon after, there will be a major battle that will attract the attention of fans all over the world.
On Christmas night, the Philadelphia 76ers participated in the Christmas War for the first time after the advent of the Chen Mu era.
Although according to the schedule, everyone can imagine, the focus of the Christmas game will definitely be two big battles between East and West: the Celtics vs. the Suns, and the Cavaliers vs. the Lakers.
Especially in the game between the Cavaliers and the Lakers, the 23VS24 drama was staged, which attracted countless eyeballs.
It can be said that the official attitude is obvious, and based on the performances of the teams last season, these two games on Christmas Eve were the most eye-catching. Compared to the other games of the day, it can only be regarded as an embellishment.
But being able to occupy a place in it, in addition to the progress of the 76ers last season, is naturally inseparable from Chen Mu's super popularity.
It's just that in comparison, the opponents faced by the 76ers seem to have a certain gap with those four teams. But Chen Mu knew that the opponent he was about to face was not easy to deal with at all.
Let's talk about the rest later, let's focus on the present and win all the games that should be won one by one!
Putting on the headphones, Chen Mu closed his eyes. (To be continued.) )
PS: The daily routine is excessive, and it is a difficult task to compete for MVP this season! After all, it's the season when LeBron broke out strongly, so let's work together!
