324 Buying a house

After finishing the transfer in Manchester, Raiola got up and left England. Raiola's destination was still Spain and Barcelona.

After Florentino took office, he signed Kaka and Ronaldo in two consecutive big moves, which made Real Madrid, who was clearly empty this season, once again the focus of the world, and also made Barcelona, ​​who won the first triple-champion honor in La Liga, look particularly unpresented.

This made current Barcelona chairman Joan Laporta full of uneasiness.

As a Phoenix man who started his business with his wife's family, Laporta's campaign path is exactly the same as Florentino. Therefore, he cannot accept that the arch-rivaled enemy of Derby enjoys exclusive glory this summer.

Although Guardiola said that the team's current lineup is very good and basically does not need to be adjusted. In addition to the "African Cheetah" Etoo is a bit disobedient, and the contract is also the last year and needs to be handled.

But Laporta still decided to make a big move. It was this news that made the entire transfer market busy.

There are not many high net worth players on the market.

In the German transfer market, the top ten players in the previous list of value were Messi, Ronaldo, Kaka, Chen Qing, Gerald, Iniesta, Xavi, Ibrahimovic, Torres and Lampard.

Needless to say, Messi, Iniesta and Xavi are Barcelona players themselves.

Ronaldo and Kaka's transfer to Real Madrid is the root cause of Laporta's restlessness.

As for Chen Qing, he has already gone to Manchester United, so there is no need to say more.

As the soul of Liverpool, Gerrard is definitely not a product, and Barcelona doesn't need it.

As for Lampard, after the Stamford Bridge tragedy, Barcelona will not be able to buy players from Chelsea in the short term.

In this way, Ibrahimovic and Torres are the most suitable. As Ibrahimovic's agent, Raiola naturally does not want to miss this opportunity to sell his customers.

Ibrahimovic is tired of life in Milan, and at the same time, he is full of desire for the trophy of the European Champions League. Since Real Madrid doesn't want him, Ibrahimovic doesn't mind joining Barcelona.

Such a temporary negotiation will inevitably require a long time of communication. In a short period of time, Chen Qing probably won’t see his agent.

Fortunately, the contract with Manchester United has basically been negotiated. If there is a temporary commercial endorsement, Raiola can also provide Chen Qing with some early communication work.

However, business matters still have to be put aside, so Chen Qing went to London first to meet Clark.

Clark is 16 weeks pregnant and it is time for the second systemic property insurance.

In addition to basic routine examinations, Clark also drew blood for screening of Down syndrome, which mainly judged the risk factor of congenital silence and neural tube defects in the fetus. As a young mother, Clark's risk in this area is not very large, and the test results are very good. The doctor said that amniotic fluid puncture does not require a follow-up examination.

Four months pregnant is in the middle of pregnancy, so Clark can run around, which is better for the two babies in his belly.

After the physical examination, Clark pulled Chen Qing to see the house in Manchester.

Chen Qing signed a five-year contract with Manchester United, obviously he wants to live in Manchester. Moreover, Clark has two babies in his belly, and it is a bit inappropriate to rent a house like before.

As for the signing fee of 10.71 million pounds that Manchester United just gave, it is naturally more than enough to buy a villa.

For professional matters like the buyer, he naturally wants to find a real estate agent.

Through the recommendation of Nigel DeJong, Chen Qing found a real estate agent named "ヒロハル", who is a relatively thin Asian.

It is said that when Gareth Southgate first entered the industry, he was still led by him.

Well, that's right, it's the current head coach of Middlesbrough. A few years ago, he worked as a part-time real estate agent when he was playing football at Aston Villa.

ヒロハル first took Chen Qing to see Ronaldo’s villa in Alderley Corner, Cheshire. After joining Real Madrid, the first-time footballer in today’s football market listed his house in England.

This villa is located next to a remote path with an enclosed entrance. It was purchased by Ronaldo when he joined Manchester United in 2003 and cost £3.85 million.

After the purchase, Ronaldo once planned to demolish and rebuild, but the plan received complaints from local residents. In the end, Ronaldo was only allowed to rebuild the villa.

The converted villa has a total of 5 bedrooms, an indoor swimming pool, a steam room, a wine cellar and an independent sports venue.

Moreover, around this villa, Chen Qing's teammates at Manchester United are also around.

For example, Wayne Rooney's house is next to this villa, but Rooney's villa looks bigger. Rooney spent £4.5 million to buy the land. At that time, it was also a five-bedroom villa, but Rooney completely demolished and rebuilt. This behavior once caused many players' neighbors to follow suit, but was hated by the locals, calling this thing the "Rooney Effect".

Chen Qing was very satisfied with the house. The only problem was that this villa was in the suburbs. Although there was a car, the transportation was not difficult. But Clark had decided to study at the University of Manchester, so it was not very convenient.

After learning about Chen Qing and Clark's needs, Yu-Haru recommended a villa located in Trafford to the two.

This is a Victorian-style red brick villa with two-story buildings, but there is also a basement underground, so it is actually a three-story structure.

The villa also has 5 bedrooms, and they are all large, each with separate bathrooms.

Next to the master bedroom on the second floor, there is also a very spacious study room.

The kitchen is designed to be professional and modern, with 6 professional stoves and even two fireplace ovens. Along the Victorian-style floor tiles, it leads to the dining room.

The front hall of the villa uses large area of ​​floor-to-ceiling glass, which makes the lighting very high-quality. Through the glass, you can see the British flower bed outside, which is very large and very beautiful.

Because it is Victorian architectural style, the vestibule also has a fireplace design. Of course, in modern with air conditioning and floor heating, this may be more of a decoration.

Overall, the design style of the villa is very good at Chen Qing and Clark's appetite, and they both fell in love with it at first sight.

The villa is also very good. It is less than ten minutes away from the University of Manchester, and Clark can walk to school. It is only about 7 kilometers away from Manchester United's Carrington training base. Chen Qing can choose to drive or go to the team to train with a more environmentally friendly bicycle.

Moreover, close to the urban area, public security is relatively safe. At least, there shouldn't be any news that Chen Qing played well on the court and then the family was looted.

The only regret is that this villa is not like the previous one, with an exclusive indoor swimming pool and an independent sports venue, but it can be remodeled.

Without too much hesitation, Chen Qing and Clark decided on this villa.
