Chapter 328 Invitation

Outside the villa, the sky had darkened, but a light drizzle was still falling. Perhaps because of the rain, the temperature seemed to have dropped a little. An Rushong, who had just come out of the villa, felt vaguely cold.

Coming out of the villa courtyard, on the sidewalk opposite Dongguang Road, a black Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle was parked quietly in the rain. In the driver's seat, Luo Minzhi, who had been paying attention to this side, started the car immediately and quickly approached, and then An Rusong got in the car.

"Let's go home," An Rushong got in the car, found a comfortable sitting position, and said casually while taking out his mobile phone from his pocket.

When he said going home, he meant going to Songquandong Mansion, but he probably wouldn't be able to live there for long. Considering the lack of adequate security measures at Songquandong Mansion, An Rusong had already thought about moving out and had recently started looking for a new place to live.

At present, An Rusong has three new properties that he is interested in purchasing, in Seongbuk-gu, Hannam-gu and Itaewon. The one he is most interested in is a house located in Hannam-dong, by the Han River. That house is also a single-family villa, covering an area of ​​more than 280 pings, yes, not 280 pings, but 280 pings.

In a place like Hannam-dong, and beside the Han River, such a house is naturally expensive. However, for An Rusong now, he can still afford such a sum of money. The most important thing is that due to the deepening of the subprime mortgage crisis, the real estate and property prices in Seoul are currently at a low level, and it is the most cost-effective to sell at this time. On the contrary, if we wait for another two years, until the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis weakens and people recover from the panic of the collapse of the real estate market, the market conditions of the Seoul real estate market will inevitably recover quickly. At that time, the price of the same property is estimated to be about 30% to 40% higher.

In other words, purchasing a property in Seoul right now can not only improve the living environment, but can also be considered an investment with great prospects.

In addition to buying a new residence for himself, An Rushong also planned to buy a property for Jiang Xiuyuan, the girl. As his de facto secretary, the girl had done a lot for him. Not only did she have to do work for him, but she also had to work for him. Although he had no plans to give her a family, he would always give her a home in Seoul.

Luo Minzhi had no idea what the boss behind him was thinking. He just drove obediently, preparing to rush back to his residence in Songquandong.

In the back seat, An Rushong picked up his cell phone, found Liu Shanyong who had called him before from the call log, and called him back directly.

The busy tone on the phone sounded twice, and someone on the other end pressed the answer button, followed by Liu Shanyong's voice: "Rusong, I finally got in touch with you."

"Brother Shanyong," An Rusong switched the phone to his other hand, crossed his legs, and said with a smile, "I didn't receive your call just now. I just saw that you had a missed call, so I called you right away."

After explaining lightly, he changed the subject without losing any time and asked, "What's the matter, Sunyong, is there something wrong?"

"If it's about the construction of the data center, you really don't have to worry." Without waiting for the other party to speak, he continued with a smile, "The company has already found a design institute to make the relevant architectural design plan, which will be ready before the end of the month, and then we will open it to the public for bidding. Well, if you are worried, Brother Shanyong, you can arrange for someone to go to Qingshan Design Institute to inquire. Our architectural design is done by them."

An Rushong was certain that the other party did not know what Qingshan Design Institute was, but he did not lie. Qingshan Design Institute did exist, and NGN Company did give the other party the architectural design plan of the data center.

"Haha, how could I not believe you?" Liu Shanyong laughed loudly on the phone. He said, "It's just that we haven't seen each other for a long time. It just so happens that I have a rare free time tonight, so I asked someone to open a stage at 'NOCTIS SEOUL' in Gangnam District. Let's get together and have a drink, how about it?"

"Now?" An Rushong subconsciously brought the phone to his face, looked at the time on it, and asked.

"I'm on my way," Liu Shanyong laughed, "I should be here in ten minutes."

An Rusong did not respond directly. He looked out the window and estimated. From his current location, it would definitely take less than ten minutes to get to Gangnam District, of course, assuming there was no traffic jam. As for the Noctis Seoul that Liu Shanyong mentioned, it was a very famous nightclub on Dosan Road, of high quality and high consumption. Although An Rusong had never been there, he knew the place.

"Oh, what's there to hesitate about?" Seeing that he didn't reply, Liu Shanyong urged, "Don't worry, there are no outsiders. There are only you, me, and Shin Sangyu, the three of us." After saying this, he seemed to think of something and added, "Ah, Shin Sangyu, do you know him? He is the nephew of Councillor Shin Jae-heon, and his mother is Namgoong Chae-yeon."

Hearing him say this, two people's information quickly emerged in An Rusong's mind. Shin Jae-heon, a senior member of the National Assembly of the Grand National Party, is based in the Seosan City and Taean County constituency.

In terms of constituency division, the election situation in Seosan City and Taean County is more complicated. Seosan City is a swing area, and the election situation between the conservatives and the progressives is relatively stalemate. However, in the past three general elections, Shin Jae-heon's vote share in the area has remained at around 80%, almost establishing an electoral barrier for the conservatives in Seosan City.

As for Taean County, it goes without saying that it is a gathering place for conservative supporters. In the last general election, Shin Jae-heon received nearly 6,000 votes more than the progressive candidate in the area. In the words of the media, the progressives "suffered a big loss" in the Taean County election.

It can be seen that Representative Shin Jae-heon is the mainstay of the conservative party in the Seosan City and Taean County constituency. Moreover, he is a low-key person, and his external image is humble and polite, with a Confucian demeanor. Therefore, he has always had a good image among the people. If there is any shortcoming in him, it is that he is a bit old. He was born before 1940 and is almost years old now. It is estimated that he will retire after serving one more term at most.

Because of this, the progressives seem to have set their sights on the Seosan City/Taean County constituency in the past two years. They have trained a young man named Cho Han-ki there, probably hoping to push him out to compete for conservative votes after Shin Jae-heon retires.

As for Nangong Caiyan, An Rushong had also heard of her. She was the fashion director of the Korean version of "ELLE" magazine and was also a well-known fashion critic in Korea. Of course, these two identities were secondary. Her most important identity was a famous female boxing activist in Korea. From time to time, you could see her cursing Korean men as trash in newspapers and on TV. Oh, no, these were her real remarks.

"You mean, this Shin Sang-woo is Ms. Nangong's son?" In Korea these days, a male like An Rusong, no, a male public figure, may not worry about provoking a national president like Lee Min-bo, but he must not provoke a female activist like Nangong Caiyan, otherwise, the next day, the door of NGN company will be blocked by others. Therefore, even behind the scenes, An Rusong had to show enough respect when mentioning Nangong Caiyan.

The reason why he asked this was because Nangong Caiyan seemed to be only about thirty-five or thirty-six years old this year. Even if she got married and had children at the age of twenty, this Shin Sangwoo would only be fifteen or sixteen years old, right?

"Stepson," Liu Shanyong said briefly on the phone, and then changed the subject, urging, "Okay, okay, I have a call, let's talk about it in person, come over quickly."

After saying that, he hung up the phone in a hurry without waiting for An Rushong to speak.

Hearing the busy tone on the phone, An Rushong subconsciously glanced at the screen, then spread his hands helplessly and put the phone back into his pocket.

"Let's go to Daoshan Road," after a little hesitation, he finally asked Luo Minzhi to change the destination.

In Seoul these days, there are three centers for nightclubs, namely Itaewon, Gangnam District and Hongdae. Among these three, Itaewon has many foreigners and is very chaotic, so accidents usually happen there. Hongdae is mainly populated by young people, especially those who have not yet graduated from college. The nightclubs are more fashionable and the consumption is not high. The real top nightclubs are mainly concentrated in Gangnam District.

Just like what Liu Shanyong said about this "NOCTIS SEOUL", this crappy place is very selective about its customers, mainly based on appearance. Those who are ugly or not dressed well will not be allowed in. Of course, those who are really rich or have status are excluded.

Nightclubs are open to good-looking women for free, and there are even free gifts available. But if men want to get in, they have to look good or pay a hefty opening fee. If you say you want to sit at the bar, sorry, even if you are allowed in, you still have to wait in line outside.

As for the private rooms with better locations, the table fee is basically around 150 million won. In other words, before An Rusong became rich, two months' salary was enough to spend in this nightclub once.

When the car reached Dosan Road and Luo Minzhi parked the car on the roadside opposite NOCTIS SEOUL, a young man came over immediately. He was a parking attendant who was eating near the nightclub.
