Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 508 Precious Wife (9)
Gu Nuan was very clear that for those big players accustomed to swallowing up acquisitions, merely devouring a company was not enough to satisfy their sense of victory. They always aimed to completely crush their opponents by obtaining the most cherished possession of their rival.
If she could get her hands on this house first—
It just so happened that Fu Yubo worked in the finance department, which could provide the operational leeway to pave the way for her.
As for the specifics, she and Fu Yubo did not plan to explain in detail to others. Zhan Dapeng could only guess that she had managed to secretly redeem the house with money before Changda ran into trouble. Without discussing how she circumvented the company’s oversight, dealt with the bank, and managed to pull off this feat under Xiao Jianming’s watchful eyes, there was only one thing to say.
That house must be very valuable, right?
The market price was certainly over a hundred million. Where could Gu Nuan find such a huge sum of money to redeem it?
Regarding this, Fu Yubo said, "The market valuation for this house is several billion. But as collateral at the bank, it definitely wouldn’t be that much. If the original owner of the house were to apply to buy it back, the price would be lower, but still, it would be around a hundred million."
A hundred million?
How could Gu Nuan come up with such an astronomical sum? Wasn’t Gu Nuan just a poor family’s child?
Facing the questions of the group, Gu Nuan was actually afraid they would get the wrong idea and honestly said, "While working part-time at school, I had saved up some money, a substantial amount of savings, and then, just recently I managed a few big deals, and there was a generous boss who had invested with me in a property in the city center. Because of its great location and the rise in this year’s property prices, when we sold it, it went for about seventy to eighty million. The boss said that all the money was mine to keep, and that I could invest it for him later. With his consent, I borrowed this money first. I borrowed a bit more from others, scraped together just enough."
The other two listening to her words clearly sensed her struggles and hardships. Why had she been so determined to save, to work so hard? Certainly, it hadn’t been for this house from the start. Because at that time, she and Xiao Yebai had not even met.
Indeed, Gu Nuan admitted to herself, she had always been saving for Xiaosheng. It’s just that now the situation was urgent, forcing her to dip into these savings she had never intended to touch.
If that big white dog at home, always jealous of her care for Ou Yanan, knew that for his sake, she had taken out the money meant for Xiaosheng to use first, the little guy would probably be ecstatic.
Zhan Dapeng smiled slightly at the thought.
Fu Yubo simply expressed his envy, "The man who marries you is truly picking up a treasure."
A treasure of immeasurable value. Not just any woman could do so much for a man.
A hundred million. Who would have thought Gu Nuan could come up with a billion?
Not even the Xiao Family’s tigresses could manage it.
Xiao Shumei and Xiao Shuzhu, upon realizing that their mother’s house might be targeted, immediately tried to raise funds to redeem it before the other party took action. However, the two of them didn’t have enough money on their own and so they approached the youngest sister for consultation.
The youngest, Xiao Shuju, upon hearing that her mother’s house was at risk of being taken away, was equally anxious. But she too couldn’t produce a vast sum. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
The three sisters each declared their available amounts to pool together.
Being the eldest and owning her own company, Xiao Shumei should have had the most money and mentioned a realistic figure, "Even if I find a buyer to sell off my company right now, at the fastest rate, I could only manage to gather several tens of millions."
