Chapter 332 A bit of a misunderstanding
Taking the Shinkansen in the morning, Sawayama Haruno and Mine Shiori returned to Tokyo without spending much time.
Unlike his counterpart who could still take a day off, Haruno Sawayama went to the bank non-stop to handle the procedures for unfreezing his bank card after returning to Tokyo. After the matter was finally settled, he had to tell Kodansha about his situations encountered.
After completely settling the huge remittance matter, he was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Looking at the series of numbers in his bank account, the smile on Haruno Sawayama's face became increasingly difficult to conceal.
"It's really different whether you have money or not," he murmured to himself.
Although I haven't had much financial pressure before, having a large amount of money in my card still makes me feel more confident.
The next thing he has to do is very clear, first use the money to buy the house.
As a time traveler, it is undeniable that Haruno Sawayama still carries some of the conservative ideas from his previous life. Having a house of his own is still a little different from a rented house.
What's more, he now has enough ability to buy a house, so after confirming his account balance, he quickly called Riho Morikawa.
"Hello, Miss Morikawa?"
As soon as the call was connected, Haruno Sawayama couldn't wait to say hello.
".Where are you?"
Riho Morikawa's tone sounded a little helpless, but she seemed to already know the purpose of Haruno Sawayama's call, and said straight to the point: "Give me your address, and I will take you to find an agent later."
< br>
"Okay."
Seeing that the other party was so straightforward, Sawayama Haruno happily reported his address.
This is something they had agreed upon before. After Haruno Sawayama's royalties come down, Riho Morikawa will find his connections in the agency industry to help him buy a suitable house in the port area.
Of course, Riho Morikawa knew exactly when Haruno Sawayama's royalties would be paid, so she had been waiting for this call all morning.
Of course, Riho Morikawa also has her own little thoughts.
It's rare to get a publishing fee, so you have to treat yourself to a meal. The last time the two of them went out to eat, she paid the bill.
Riho Morikawa has been waiting for the opportunity to kill Haruno Sawayama, and what could be more suitable at the moment than the publication fee?
In order to be able to kill Haruno Zeshan, she even used her little willfulness of power again and ran out to help Haruno Zeshan solve the house problems when it was still a working day.
Of course, isn't it the editor's job to help the authors under his name solve problems?
Solve it early so that Haruno Sawayama can start writing a new book earlier. Therefore, Riho Morikawa feels that this is not called absenteeism, but at most called attendance.
At noon, the warm sun shines.
The streets of Tokyo are full of pedestrians wearing bloated winter clothes. Haruno Sawayama is standing next to the bus stop at the agreed place, waiting patiently for Riho Morikawa to appear.
Fortunately, the other party did not keep him waiting for too long. After a while, a small black taxi stopped at the bottom of the bus stop.
Riho Morikawa, who was wearing white leather boots and dressed up like a British noblewoman at the end of the last century, quickly walked out of the car.
She also specially put on an off-white elongated windbreaker. The goose-yellow lining made her look cool and cute. Especially the way she tied up her hair and hid it in a light-colored gauze hat made people feel eye-catching and simple. Without losing elegance.
But having said that, why does this guy's makeup make me look younger every time? I remember when they first met, Riho Morikawa was still in the pure-sex-sister style, the type who didn't hide her proud figure. .
Recently, I have become unexpectedly conservative and cute
Sure enough, would even a strong woman like Riho Morikawa care about her age?
Haruno Sawayama cursed a few times in his heart, and then stepped forward to say hello.
"Please make a special trip again, Miss Morikawa." Haruno Sawayama said with a smile.
"Have you troubled me enough times?"
Riho Morikawa glared at him angrily.
"Can you treat me to dinner tonight?"
"Of course, if you don't tell me, I will find a chance to ask you to dinner."
Sawayama Haruno agreed without hesitation.
After all, the other party has helped me with so many things, and he can be regarded as his boss. Of course, he must be willing to pay the royalties.
Hmm. In addition to this, there is another reason. Esaki Suguha has something to do and cannot come back for dinner at night. He is the only one left at home, so he still has to find a substitute rice partner, Riho Morikawa.
I hope the other party won't be angry when he finds out that she is the alternative. At worst, there will be more blood in his wallet tonight.
"I have already contacted the person. Now go to him. You can tell him the type of house you want first. I will send it to him in advance so that I can show you the house information later." Riho Morikawa said casually.
"What type of house do you want?"
Zeshan Haruno pondered for a moment and said: "First of all, it should be big, preferably more than two floors, and try to have more than seven rooms. Then the environment should be as good as possible, preferably in some high-end villa areas."
"Seven rooms??"
Riho Morikawa looked at him in surprise.
"What do you want seven rooms for?" she asked in confusion.
Seven-room luxury villas are quite rare in island countries, especially in Tokyo where land is at a premium. Even if you go to Ota District or Minato District, it is rare to see many luxury houses like this.
Normal people wouldn’t think of having so many rooms
".I have my own arrangements. First of all, there must be four rooms for me and my family to live in, right?"
Sawayama Haruno said helplessly: "Secondly, the study must have a room, otherwise it will be very troublesome to deal with it when working. In addition to this, it is best to have a room in the game room, or a room in the screening room. A rough calculation , seven is already the minimum.”
He shares a room with Maki, Suguha shares a room, and future Mana will also have to keep a room.
If future Mana is included, then Shiori has to be included as well.
In addition, I don’t know what Ayano Yui’s plans will be in the future. This guy may also go to live in his own house. After all, even his hometown in Osaka has a bedroom of the other party. To be on the safe side, it is best to stay. It would be better to give her a prepared guest bedroom.
Needless to say, the study room is used for working. The game room and the theater are completely designed to take care of Maki's playful character.
The guy will definitely be very excited when he finds out, and Sawayama Haruno plans to give it to him as a surprise.
"Seven Rooms."
After hearing Haruno Sawayama's explanation, Riho Morikawa looked at him with a complicated expression.
"Have you ever thought about how big a villa with seven rooms is? Although you have a lot of royalties this month, it would be difficult to buy a house like that. You don't plan to spend all the money in one go, right?"
"Instalments."
Haruno Sawayama said matter-of-factly: "I'm not in a hurry. Anyway, after the copyright income comes in, there will definitely be enough money to repay the loan."
"That's right." Riho Morikawa rubbed the center of his eyebrows and said a little tangledly, "But with such conditions, there are probably not many houses that can be found."
There are still some luxury villas in Tokyo, but the problem is that these luxury villas are rarely sold directly to the outside world, and most of them are rented out. House prices in the island country have also been falling in recent years. People who own luxury villas are definitely not willing to sell their houses at a discount. They would rather let them live there for four or five years than sell them easily. After all, in the middle The losses were simply too great.
After thinking about it, Riho Morikawa said reluctantly: "I know, in short. I'll send you your requirements first, but it's hard to say what kind of house I can find. Do you have any alternatives?" Plan? ”
"No more."
Sawayama Haruno shook his head.
"The environment is good and the house is big."
"What about transportation? Don't you care about transportation?"
"If you buy a car, you don't have to worry about this. It doesn't matter even if it's farther from the station." Haruno Sawayama said without hesitation.
Most luxury houses are not close to the station. In the end, you have to rely on transportation such as private cars to travel. He has carefully considered it before, and transportation can be considered as a secondary option.
Seeing that Haruno Sawayama insisted on this, Riho Morikawa did not persuade him too much.
She first sent all her requests to her agency friend, and then took Haruno Sawayama to Minato.
When the two arrived at the agreed upon location, the agent, who had already prepared in advance, had been waiting in the cafe for a long time.
Seeing Riho Morikawa's appearance, he greeted him enthusiastically.
"Morikawa, it's been a long time since I last saw you."
"Saito, long time no see."
Riho Morikawa turned slightly sideways and said with a smile: "This is Sawayama, he asked me to contact you this time."
"Hello, Mr. Zeshan."
After hearing that the young man in front of him was the main customer this time, Saito Keitaro's eyes suddenly lit up.
He took out a business card from his pocket and said politely: "My name is Saito Keitaro. You can call me Saito or Keitaro."
"Hello."
Out of etiquette, Sawayama Haruno put away the other party's business card.
Riho Morikawa on the side seemed to know that he was not good at this kind of social activities, so he spoke first: "How about the message I just sent you? Is there a suitable house?"
"House. To be honest, yes, yes."
Hearing Riho Morikawa's words, Saito Keitaro couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"There are still a few villas that meet the conditions, but the location is not very good, or there may be other problems. Sit down and chat slowly."
He took the initiative to invite the two of them to sit down, and then politely helped order two cups of coffee drinks, and then began to retrieve the information he had prepared early on the tablet he carried.
"Here, Mr. Zeshan, here are the houses that have been temporarily found based on your conditions. You can take a look at the situation."
He pushed the tablet over, and Sawayama Haruno glanced at it curiously.
They are all luxurious flat floors. There are also duplex villas in the back, but the area may be smaller, and it is far less than the level of seven rooms.
"Is that all?"
Riho Morikawa came over, and after taking a few glances, she said with some dissatisfaction: "Why are all the unused villas on the top of the mountain taken out? It must be convenient for driving, right?"
You don’t need to look at the villa on the top of the mountain to know how remote it is. You have to take a long detour to get to the city center.
Unless you are in a rural area, living in such villas is very inconvenient.
"Generally speaking, most houses with more than seven rooms are villas for leisure and vacation. I also included the mountaintop villas at the request of Mr. Zeshan."
Saito Terutaro paused, and then asked with some confusion: "Morikawa, are you two dating?"
In fact, he had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
This was not the first time for Riho Morikawa to introduce a friend, but this time the other person was particularly attentive.
Moreover, the action of leaning forward to look at the tablet together just now seemed a bit too intimate. People who didn't know better thought she was looking for her new house.
Such an intimate behavior made it difficult for him not to doubt whether the other party was dating this gentleman named Zeshan. Apart from that, there was no way to explain why the other party was so concerned about buying a house for others, right?
"Eh"
Riho Morikawa leaned back subconsciously.
"No, you are thinking too much."
She quickly reacted and explained calmly: "He is actually an author under me. I will introduce it to you this time simply because of his consideration."
"Ah, really."
Seeing this, Saito Keitaro couldn't continue to ask questions.
On the other hand, Haruno Sawayama, who was reading with great interest on his tablet, asked with slight curiosity: "There are also houses in Ota District, but I haven't seen a high-end residential area similar to Denen Chofu?"
"Denen Chofu?"
After hearing what Haruno Sawayama said, Saito Terutaro suddenly felt troubled.
“To be honest, houses in wealthy areas like Denen Chofu are almost never listed for sale by intermediary companies like ours.”
Saito Terutaro explained helplessly: "The people who can live in that kind of place are not just rich. If you want to buy a house in that kind of place, most of them have to find personal connections to negotiate. ”
"That's it"
Sawayama Haruno shook his head with regret.
He thought he could buy a house similar to Esaki's house.
But yes, the house Ezaki Suguha lived in before was obviously a Japanese-style retro mansion. There were very few such buildings in Tokyo. The average rich man could not afford to live in such a house. To explain it in terms of the house in his previous life, It is roughly equivalent to a courtyard house in the capital, and it is also a courtyard house in a pretty good location.
After thinking for a moment, Sawayama Haruno no longer struggled with whether he could buy a house similar to Denen Chofu.
He focused on the tablet in front of him, and when the time came, he didn't forget to take a few photos and send them to Maki Miyazawa and Suguha Esaki.
