Having spent the afternoon correcting errors in ancient medical books for Hu Guojun, Su Wen was exhausted by evening, yawning non-stop. Hu Guojun invited Su Wen to his home for some soup to restore energy before taking a nap.
The next day Mr. Su Wen was woken up by a persistent phone call from a real estate agency. They were eyeing the several million in commission, working with unbelievable efficiency. Astonishingly, they had managed to call the property owner back within a day.
"You've already contacted the owner?" Mr. Su Wen was somewhat taken aback. Wasn't it said that the owner had recently suffered business failures and was busy dealing with imported cosmetics at the port?
"Yes, the owner is in urgent need of money. Upon hearing that someone is ready to make a down payment of one billion, he immediately took the earliest flight over," the real estate agent explained.
