Sijiucheng was much more prosperous than the imperial capital. Walking through the city center, luxury cars were everywhere along the streets.
Before leaving, Di Mingjue had contacted a real estate agent in advance. Upon arriving at the agreed location, the agent recognized Di Mingjue at first glance.
"Mr. Di?"
"Yes, I am."
"I'm Xiao Zhang, the agent. I'll take you both upstairs now."
Led by Xiao Zhang, they passed through the commercial center building and took the elevator to the top floor.
Stepping out of the elevator, they were greeted by a messy office area. According to Xiao Zhang, this place used to be a small startup company that went bankrupt due to poor operations.
As soon as the previous tenant vacated, Di Mingjue happened to choose this location.
Xiao Zhang took a set of keys from his waistband, flipping through the tags to select the key for the lock in front of them.
Pushing open the glass door, scattered papers were all over the floor. Ye Ziyu bent down to pick one up and, looking at the content, determined that this place used to be an insurance company.
As Di Mingjue was talking with Xiao Zhang, she walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the building opposite.
"Ye Group?"
Xiao Zhang's ears were sharp and he caught her words. "Yes, that's the famous Ye Group of Sijiucheng across the street."
Di Mingjue walked over and looked at the tall building opposite.
If they chose this location, they would frequently encounter the young masters of the Ye family in the future.
"Mingjue, what do you think of this place?" Ye Ziyu asked.
Fearing they wouldn't like it, Xiao Zhang quickly praised the office building. "Don't mind that the previous company went bankrupt here. This is a prime location, one of the best in Sijiucheng. The surroundings are all office buildings, and the Ye Group is right in front of us. If you want to cooperate with the Ye Group in the future, communication will be very convenient."
They would be living together, so they could see each other every day.
"Where is the other address?" Di Mingjue asked.
Xiao Zhang took out his iPad from his briefcase and found the map for the other address through their chat history.
From their current location, it would take an hour, even without traffic.
After briefly describing the situation, Xiao Zhang offered Di Mingjue a suggestion. "Between the two addresses, I still recommend you choose the current one. It's not only for your future convenience but also for ease of hiring employees. Suburban locations are too remote and not suitable for running a company."
Ye Ziyu understood that a good address would reduce a lot of trouble.
"We'll consider it," Di Mingjue said.
As they were going downstairs, Xiao Zhang was still trying to persuade them. When they exited the building, Di Mingjue saw Ye Shaoting coming out of the building opposite.
Their eyes met, and Ye Shaoting saw them as well.
He waved his hand, and the car door that was opening in front of him was immediately closed by his assistant.
"What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"
Xiao Zhang stared at Ye Shaoting from head to toe, looking at Di Mingjue in disbelief. "So you know each other!"
Ye Shaoting raised an eyebrow and asked curiously, "Who is this?"
Rubbing his palm vigorously on his clothes, Xiao Zhang immediately introduced himself. "I'm Xiao Zhang from the real estate agency. Mr. Ye, feel free to contact me if you need anything in the future."
He handed his business card to Ye Shaoting with both hands.
"Have you decided?" Ye Shaoting ignored Xiao Zhang and looked up at the tall building behind them.
Ye Shaoting was aware of the specific situation in the surrounding area. He hadn't expected Di Mingjue to find a place so close to the Ye Group right from the start.
Good, being under his nose would allow him to observe Di Mingjue's every move.
"No, no rush," Di Mingjue replied politely.
Ye Shaoting agreed with his words and added, "Indeed, you can't rush such matters. If you need any help, feel free to ask."
"Thank you for your kindness, elder brother," Ye Ziyu said gratefully before Di Mingjue could respond.
Time flew by, and it was already afternoon. Ye Shaoting glanced at the sky, raised his hand, and waved, signaling the car behind him to drive over.
"Shall we go back together?"
