“Please sit.”
“My name is Mrs. Violet Pink. May I know how to address you two?”
As the woman introduced herself, she politely took off her sunglasses.
Jacob could finally see her appearance; she was very beautiful, with well-defined features and striking eyes, but her aura was different from the few women Jacob knew. She carried a sense of cold pride, and her gaze was sharp.
“I’m Jacob, with the character ‘Jac’ meaning vast.” Jacob introduced himself.
Vienna followed suit with her introduction.
After a few polite exchanges, Mrs. Pink took the initiative to get to the point: “This shop is mine, and it’s for sale. If you want to buy the shop along with the property, the price is 8.5 million.”
Mrs. Pink hadn’t planned to mention the sale, but when she saw the Benz GLS Class parked outside, she figured someone who could spend over a million on a toy wouldn’t be short on cash, so she brought it up directly.
However, as soon as she spoke, Vienna was taken aback. The scale of this coffee shop had already exceeded her expectations, let alone buying the property along with it.
Although her family was well-off, she couldn’t come up with 8.5 million.
Just as Vienna was about to ask how the sale would work, she heard Jacob beside her say, “Fixed price, 8 million.”
“Huh?”
Vienna turned her head in shock, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Although she had accepted that Jacob might be wealthy, given that he drove a luxury car worth over a million, she couldn’t believe he would just buy an 8 million coffee shop on a whim!
Mrs. Pink was also taken aback; she hadn’t expected him to give such a straightforward offer.
Although asking for 8.5 million wasn’t unreasonable, as she had spent a million when she bought the property, and with the shop’s renovations and various equipment, her total investment had reached 11 million.
She quoted 8.5 million mainly because the real estate market was currently sluggish; not only had residential properties dropped significantly in price, but commercial properties were also declining, so she wanted to cash out and exit, even if it meant selling at a loss.
Even so, an 8 million property wasn’t something that could just be sold off easily.
At this time, cash was king, and liquidating assets was the hardest.
Before this, there had been inquiries, but none had resulted in a deal.
“Can we sign the contract for 8 million today?” Mrs. Pink asked.
“Yes!” Jacob replied affirmatively.
“OK!”
“Deal!”
Mrs. Pink extended her fair hand.
Jacob smiled and shook hands with her, then turned to Vienna beside him and asked, “Did you bring your ID?”
“Uh, yes.”
Vienna didn’t understand why Jacob asked this but nodded nonetheless.
Mrs. Pink understood, raising her eyebrows in surprise as she carefully scrutinized Vienna, then glanced at Jacob, silently thinking: So he’s just an old man with money and no sense!
With countless people under her belt, Mrs. Pink could tell at a glance that Jacob and Vienna were not a married couple.
There was a familiar yet strange feeling between the two, an indescribable state.
However, as the owner of a bar, Mrs. Pink was used to such relationships.
Thus, she could keenly sense that the two were likely either friends who played cards together or involved in a sugar daddy arrangement.
At first, she leaned towards the former, as Vienna didn’t look very young and might even be a bit older than her, possibly already in her thirties.
And a “big uncle” like Jacob, who drove a luxury car worth millions, should be surrounded by many young and beautiful girls, giving him plenty of options.
But now, it was clear that Jacob wanted to buy the coffee shop and give it to this woman.
That was 8 million!
A girl in her twenties could easily support several of them.
Yet this wealthy uncle was giving it away to the woman beside him without batting an eye!
Even if this could form a long-term sugar daddy relationship, Mrs. Pink felt the cost-effectiveness was low.
She even thought to herself: “Big brother, if I had known you were into this, I could have introduced you to a few cheaper options.”
“Let’s draft the contract.”
“I’ll transfer you a deposit of 500,000 first, and on Monday, we can go to the real estate bureau to handle the transfer procedures. Then I’ll transfer the remaining 7.5 million to you.”
Just as Mrs. Pink was lost in thought, Jacob spoke up.
“Okay, no problem!”
Mrs. Pink nodded, then took out her phone to make a call, instructing the other party to prepare two copies of the contract.
“Miss. Vienna, let’s add each other on WhatsApp. Please send me your identity information so I can prepare the contract.”
After hanging up, Mrs. Pink said to Vienna.
“Ah?”
“My identity information?”
Vienna finally reacted, looking at Jacob in surprise: “Big Mr. Jacob…”
“This shop is a gift for you.”
Jacob interrupted Vienna, casually waving his hand.
“This…”
Vienna was completely stunned. When Mrs. Pink asked her for her identity information, she only had a suspicion, but now she had Jacob’s confirmation.
