Chapter 238 [Move to welcome the first battle]
On the 16th, the team continued to have a holiday, and Wang Jun called Abby Leying to see the house together.
Before playing the playoffs, he wanted to change apartments first, prepare for the arrival of his cousin and for the long summer holiday.
Wang Jun had long planned to move to a wealthy area to live. Although he was a little distance from Columbia University, the security and air would be much better in all aspects.
Speaking of the formation of the wealthy New York area, an important factor is Central Park. Among the tall buildings where every inch of land is valuable, Central Park is embedded in it like a green gem.
The park is amazingly large, with 843 acres of land, which was originally a nearly wilderness, but now it is a large idyllic hunting area with dense woods, lakes and lawns, and even farms and pastures, with sheep grazing. The creation of a park in such a noisy and prosperous metropolis was praised by the world.
Central Park retains its original landform, which is in sharp contrast to the prosperity of the metropolis. It is also the only super-large green park in Manhattan, so along Central Park and New York's famous Fifth Street is the first choice for wealthy people to live in, and it has also become the place with the highest price of apartments in New York.
Wang Jun is frugal when he has no money, and becomes extremely generous when he has money.
When moving, he thought it would be beneficial to his sister's illness. When he woke up, he would feel very happy when he saw the green outside the window.
Originally, Wang Jun’s plan was to buy an apartment directly, but later he gave up on the idea when he inquired about the housing prices nearby.
In 2004, Manhattan housing prices were very high. Even if it was possible that it would continue to rise, the houses in this area were not affordable by ordinary wealthy people.
For example, a luxury decoration apartment with a swimming pool on 61st Street in Central Park, with an area of 188 square meters, worth $9.7 million, and the property fee is nearly $3,000 a month. The real estate tax is also 2,000 a month, which is really terrifying.
Although many methods such as installment payment can be tax-deducted, Wang Jun doesn't want to lose his brain.
Under Xia Baowen's introduction, Wang Jun easily subleted the house from his family, about 220 square meters. It has three bedrooms and one living room, two bathrooms and two bathrooms. It has an open kitchen with a fully furnished and a terrace.
Residents in this community can also enjoy many conveniences, such as gyms, dining in the hotel's Blt Bar, and digital lounges where you can play TV games, watch movies, drink coffee, exercise, etc.
Wang Jun took two girls to visit the apartment on the seventh floor. The decoration style is simple and fashionable, clean and bright, with a preference for American modernity.
On one side of the living room is a row of snow-white storage cabinets. Replacing the blank wall space is a large mirror with a whole wall. Such a mirror setting makes the originally large public space of the living room look more empty and wide. The mirror setting near the door is also used to organize clothes before going out, which can be said to be a multi-purpose thing.
As soon as Abby saw this mirror, he fell in love with the apartment and praised Wang Jun for his good vision.
Beauties like to dress up and look in the mirror. Of course, the narcissistic Abby is no exception. It is simply prepared for her.
Wang Jun was not so careful? The front owner of the apartment had done it. He couldn't take it away, as it was cheaper.
Walking to the other side of the living room is the dining area, and the simple set dining table is also ready-made. It's just that there are no tableware.
The layout of the master room in the living room is also satisfactory. It is a big bed of two and a half meters wide, and it will never be crowded even if the two sleep together.
On the other end of the room are large-scale floor-to-ceiling glass windows on both sides. When you open the curtains, bright light will shine in.
There is also a small terrace connected to the master bedroom. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass door, you can walk out of the bedroom and directly connect with the city view.
The bathroom and bathroom have also been decorated, making people unable to find fault.
Such a good apartment. The monthly rent costs $7,300, which is quite luxurious. But Wang Jun can afford it.
Le Ying was a little unacceptable after knowing that the rent was in danger and frowned. "Brother, do we really want to move here? I can buy two houses in Huaizhou for a year."
At this time, the housing prices in Huaizhou were less than 3,000 yuan. Wang Jun had long since compared with the country. He smiled and said, "What, do you still want to go back to Huaizhou to live? The housing prices are very cheap, but it is not suitable for going out for half of the year. You can absorb smog when you go out. How can you compare with this place?"
“But it’s too expensive.”
"It's not expensive to live in a comfortable place. My next contract will be better, and there will be more advertising endorsements. It would be too unreasonable if you still squeeze in that small place." Wang Jun said seriously.
"Oh well."
Le Ying looked at Abby. If she couldn't hold on, both of them would be disappointed. She wouldn't be able to use this method to save money from her brother.
After seeing the house, Abby liked it very much and was close to where he worked, so of course he had no objection.
Wang Jun had already negotiated before, and asked the two women to nod and give them a surprise. If there was no problem, he called the household owner and officially signed the agreement.
On the 17th, Wang Jun contacted the moving company and moved some personal belongings to his new home, and missed the morning training.
Some old items are left directly in the past apartment to facilitate the next tenant.
The three of them chose the room. Although Abby was in a good mood and had a strong love, he still did not agree to have sex with Wang Jun.
With Le Ying here, she is always a little shy and can't let go.
In the evening, Wang Jun went to the stadium to report that he would play against the Celtics at home.
Lawrence was doing mobilization work in the locker room and said bluntly: "Everyone, we only have one goal in the first round, that is, sweep our opponents and advance to the second round first. The Celtics competed with us many times in the regular season. They were very bad. If we defended two outside scoring points, we would definitely win."
"It will win," Kidd shouted.
"Must win" others respond together.
There is no need to say much about morale. If a player does not fight hard at this time, he will not be qualified to become a professional NBA player.
Mo Ning returned to the team and played with the team. Even if he didn't play, he would cheer for his teammates on the bench. This would greatly enhance home morale and drive fans to cheer.
In the visiting team's locker room, Celtic people were a little down, and the two sides had a huge gap in their regular season strength.
Because the management was dissatisfied with the team's record, head coach John Carroll was fired, and general manager Danny Angie played the head coach in the second half.
Pierce is not satisfied with the team's lineup, so he's almost here to stay.
The only good news in the team is that Ricky Davis plays well, averaging 144 points, 42 rebounds and 26 assists per game, willing to be the sixth man, completely obeying Pierce's boss status.
As long as he doesn't mess around, he is a good role player and can play a role.
Anji boosted morale and said: "We have rich game experience and the fighting spirit that we are not inferior to anyone. Everyone should strive to exert all their strength. Even if they lose, they should leave the playoffs proudly with their heads raised their heads."
You can tell that you can't win by looking at Anji's tone. The subtext is clearly "Everyone must work hard and try to lose less, don't embarrass yourself."
The Celtics were swept by the Nets last season. Players, including Pierce, had no confidence and could only do their best. To be continued.
