Super Tycoon: I Beg You, Stop Pulling Stunts

Chapter 82: Chapter 81: This Is Just Our Family’s Tradition

”Dad, what are you up to?”

Sitting in his car without the navigation on, Lin Chu was still processing the fact that he was now a billionaire. On a whim, he decided to call his dad.

Lin Haifu: ”Playing mahjong! What’s up?”

Lin Chu: ?

Hearing this, he immediately got a little anxious. ”It’s the damn morning, what are you doing playing mahjong? You’re not gambling, are you?”

That was a bottomless pit.

Of course, Lin Chu could definitely afford to fill that pit, but getting addicted to it would be bad for his dad’s health.

Lin Haifu: ”No, just a casual game. Um, AHEM, a matchmaker came by... said she wanted to introduce a woman to me. I’m just entertaining her...”

Lin Chu: ...

’Unbelievable.’

Sometimes, Lin Chu even wondered if he had inherited his playboy genes from his father.

The conclusion he eventually reached was this: men without the playboy gene had probably failed to pass on their lineage, while the rest had been tamed by society, Confucianism, and modern civilization.

”So, you’re getting married?”

Lin Chu asked with a smile. If his dad really were to get married, he wouldn’t mind. A woman in the house could take care of him.

Lin Haifu: ”There are people here, don’t talk to me about this. I’ll call you back later and we can talk properly. Damn! I won by self-draw!”

The sound of mahjong tiles clattering, SHUFFLE SHUFFLE, came through the phone.

Hearing this, Lin Chu couldn’t help but smile. If his dad found it inconvenient to talk about in front of others, it must be because he was embarrassed, which meant he wasn’t serious about getting married.

”Dad, I came into a bit of money recently. How about I buy you a house?”

As soon as he said it, he heard Lin Haifu shouting on the other end, presumably to the people around him, ”Hold on, pause the game! My son says he’s buying me a house! The little rascal, he’s so filial!”

He was showing off.

A few seconds later, Lin Haifu found a quiet place. ”Came into money? How much?”

Lin Chu pursed his lips, afraid of scaring him, and said with a laugh, ”Quite a lot. Several million.”

Lin Haifu immediately fell silent, sucking in a sharp breath.

”You should keep it. Buy a place in Peng City. I imagine the housing prices there aren’t cheap, right?”

”Dad, you don’t need to worry about that. Do you want to move to the city?”

Lin Haifu refused flatly. ”Nope. I’m having a blast here in the village. This year, I’m going to get myself elected village chief. That’s what I call bringing honor to our ancestors. You just worry about yourself.”

His voice dropped lower. ”And I’m not looking for a wife. No way. Right now, all the women in the village are my ’wives’—they cook for me, clean my house... If I get a real one, then I’ll only have the one, and she’ll be nagging and bossing me around.”

Lin Chu: ?

He couldn’t help but laugh.

’I give up.’

’I really give up.’

’What kind of family upbringing is this?’

”Alright, alright, have it your way. I’ll send you some money, then. Let’s start with two hundred thousand. But no gambling, you hear me? If I find out, I’m cutting you off completely. You won’t get another cent.”

Lin Chu’s tone became a little more serious.

Lin Haifu: ”Are you lecturing your own father now? Anyway, there’s something else. That little girl from the Jiang Family—her mom keeps calling me. Between the lines, it’s all about arranging a marriage. It’s up to you. I think the girl is pretty good, but her parents... they’re lacking. Their family’s character isn’t great.”

Lin Chu: ...

’You have the nerve to talk about another family’s character?’

’Don’t you have any damn self-awareness about our own family?’

”Okay, I get it. You don’t need to worry about this either. I know what I’m doing when it comes to my own affairs. That’s all, I’m hanging up.”

Lin Haifu said hurriedly, ”Stay safe, and lay off the prostitutes! Don’t catch anything nasty!”

BEEP BEEP BEEP...

Lin Chu heard his father’s last words and couldn’t help but shake his head and smile. While waiting at a red light, he took out his phone and casually transferred two hundred thousand to him.

’This is our family’s character, too.’

’So what?’

But Lin Chu didn’t think it was a big deal.

Wealth is justice, and power is king.

As for family character, you only earn the right to talk about that after your family has been rich for three generations.

...

He drove past a real estate agency with an open parking spot next to it. On impulse, he pulled over and parked.

The ”open parking spot” was the main reason.

As for which agency to choose, he didn’t care.

Wang Zhefei would try to save money by handling the process himself.

But Lin Chu was mainly interested in saving himself the trouble.

A small agent’s fee was insignificant.

The roar of the sports car’s engine echoed down the street. As he began to pull into the spot, people from the agency rushed out, ready to greet him.

Almost the entire staff ran out.

Two men and three women. Like old farmers praying for rain after a long drought, their eyes were full of hope and longing. They beamed at the potential client.

However, unsure if he was actually a customer looking to buy, no one approached him just yet.

Lin Chu got out of the car.

He walked toward them.

”Hello sir, welcome.”

”Sir, are you looking for a property?”

”Please, come in, sir.”

Lin Chu waved his hand. ”Not so many people, it’s too much. Just one of you is enough. You.”

He pointed to the prettiest woman there—one with delicate, fair features, lips like cherries, and an innocent look in her eyes.

The others dispersed.

”Hello, sir. Um, what kind of property are you looking for?”

The young woman was probably new to the job. She stuttered slightly as she asked, her face flushing red with nervousness.

Lin Chu said casually, ”A detached villa. In the South Mountain or Futian districts. But not Xiangmi Lake.”

Xiangmi Lake was too close to Chen Jinyu. If he really lived there, he’d have no freedom left.

’A detached villa?’

’A *villa*!’

The other agents, though they had stepped away, were all listening with ears pricked. Hearing his words, their eyes went bloodshot with excitement.

’A whale!’

’A super whale!’

In sales, being pretty really was an advantage. The client had picked her at first glance.

”Sir, would the Overseas Chinese Town area be acceptable?”

”In Overseas Chinese Town, at Swan Castle, there’s a property that just came up. It’s a detached villa, a rare floor plan. Three stories, with a building area of over four hundred square meters and a usable area of nearly fifteen hundred.”

She said, flustered. She wasn’t looking at a listing, but this one was etched in her mind. It was an absolute mansion.

’Hm?’

’Overseas Chinese Town?’

Lin Chu’s interest was piqued. What a coincidence. The property he had just bought was also in Overseas Chinese Town.

That area had always been a traditional wealthy district.

Even in Peng City, where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, there were quite a few villas there.

”How much? Get me the details. Actually, never mind the details. Let’s just go see the place.”

Lin Chu didn’t want to waste any more time.

She replied, ”The owner’s asking price is 36 million. It was just listed. You can go see it first, and if you like it, the price is negotiable with the owner.”

Lin Chu nodded and stood up. ”Let’s go. Time to see the house.”

He was the very picture of decisive action.

The saleswoman hurried to keep up, her voice trembling slightly. ”Sir, I need to contact the owner first to see if he’s available.”

Lin Chu said, ”Then call him, quickly. If he can’t be there within the hour, we’re not looking. If I like the house, I’ll pay in full.”

Hearing this, she felt a shock that resonated deep in her soul. She quickly took out her phone and started dialing.

’36 million!’

’Paid in full!’

Lin Chu got in his car, lit a cigarette, and waited.

’This was the joy of spending money.’

This time, he wasn’t buying a house for the rebate. He was just spending money for himself.

The pleasure was so pure, it was truly satisfying.

”Sir, I’ve contacted him! The owner said it’s fine. He’s heading over now. By the time we get there, he should be arriving too.”

She hurried over in her high heels, a wide smile on her face as she spoke.

”Then get in the car.”

Lin Chu started the engine.

She quickly walked to the passenger side, opened the door, and got in.

She felt like happiness had just hit her, sudden and fierce.

’I went to the Phoenix Ancient Temple to pray to the God of Wealth last weekend,’ she thought. ’Did he... actually bless me?’
