Chapter 245: It’s in your hands
“Are all these going to be sold?”
Mike looked at the pile of property certificates in front of him with a fleshy look.
This was something that he had saved for a long time.
Clark sighed and said, “Dad, do you know where all these houses are?”
“Uh, too many to remember.”
Clark choked and said, “A lot of them here have no investment value, the houses have no hope of increasing in value at all, and the taxes these houses pay every year are a lot of money, at one and a half percent, you could buy at least one house with the taxes you pay for these houses every year.”
“So much!”
Mike froze, he has not been counting the taxes paid, are all hanging under the account directly deducted……
Now listen to Clark said so, in the heart of a rough calculation, indeed heartache.
Damn the Internal Revenue Service!
“Then let’s sell it!” Mike looked at the remaining property certificates and said, “How many more don’t need to be sold?”
The corner of Clark’s mouth twitched and he said, “Thirty-one.”
God knows how many houses his dad had bought, and the taxes he’d paid over the years were a fortune.
“That’s so little.”
Mike put them away and said, “Then I’ll leave it to you to sell the house and buy the store.”
Clark looked at the pile of property certificates and then at Mike: “Dad, didn’t you say you were bored? This is just the thing for you to do, and kill time, and……”
Mike mused and said, “That’s right, I was going to give you some of the money after the sale, but now it’s still ……”
“I’ll go! I’ve got time!”
Clark clutched the pile of property certificates and said, “Whoever steals from me, I’m in a hurry with him.”
“Then it’s all yours, son.”
Mike said, carrying his suitcase upstairs.
By the time Mike came downstairs, Clark had the property certificates all sorted out.
“Go ahead.” Mike waved his hand, “Oh, and by the way, it’s best to get the restaurant if it’s nearby.”
Clark said, “I know.”
With those words, Clark quickly left.
Looking at the closed door, Mike could not help but smile.
In the next second, the smile on Mike’s face disappeared, and with a sigh, he took out his cell phone, flipped out the familiar number, and pressed his finger on it for a few seconds, then put it down again, and couldn’t help but sigh.
Clark came back, he had wanted Charles and Eric to come home for a get-together, but remembered that they are now busy……
Or forget it.
Wait for them to finish, there will be plenty of time later.
……
An isolated island located in the vast ocean, located underground in a secret base.
This is the stronghold of the Brotherhood.
At this time, a temporary room used as a laboratory.
Eric looked at Victor, the sabre-toothed tiger in front of him, and said, “Are you sure you want to do this? This is a certain life-threatening thing.”
The sabre-toothed tiger laughed and said, “With your help, the success rate is already the maximum!”
He looked at the silver liquid metal that was in a high temperature state not far away, and his eyes were not a bit fearful, but filled with searing heat.
Edelman alloy.
He has been waiting for a day for too long.
Back then, Stryker turned him down because he couldn’t take it, but now he had another chance.
Some time ago, after they found this special alloy in a captured research base, the sabre-toothed tiger had it on his mind.
Eric let out a deep breath and said, “Okay, I’ll start.”
The sabre-toothed tiger grinned, casually ripped off his clothes, revealing a robust muscle and said, “Come on!”
His physique was so special that he could not be anesthetized at all, which saved him from this procedure.
However, this also meant that he had to carry it off by his own will.
Back then, he might not really survive this experiment, but now with Eric, the situation is different again.
Eric can use his own ability to do fine manipulation, which is unmatched by those machines infused with Edelman alloy.
Reaching out, the Edelman alloy began to tumble up under Eric’s control, rushing toward him under the sabre-toothed tiger’s hot gaze.
“Ah!”
A harsh scream rang out, and a few people outside the door, Fire Poison and Sound-wave, winced.
How painful would it be to make that crazy beast, who was used to being injured, scream like that?
Fortunately, the duration of the scream was not long, but in less than a minute, the scream was weakened, and then disappeared abruptly.
I’m really good, it’s worth installing, after all, there are many books, complete books, and fast updates!
The atmosphere was solemn, and the three waited quietly.
A few moments later, the door of the room opened, Eric came out, looking at several people concerned, his face showed a smile: “Success.”
The three people showed a smile.
“By the way, I’m going to leave for a while in a few days.”
Eric said faintly.
Fire Poison looked at Eric and wondered, “You’re not going to act alone, are you?”
“Just some personal things, you guys don’t need to ask.” Seeing several people still want to ask something, Eric smiled faintly and said, “After I leave, you guys are free to move around, but you are not allowed to cause trouble, you guys keep an eye on your own people.”
Several people nodded, Eric pointed inside and said, “He’s about to come out.”
With those words, Eric turned around and left, and the few people who were curious about the fire poison continued to wait.
A few moments later, the room door opened again and the sabre-toothed tiger walked out.
At this time, he was full of excitement, the madness on his body thickened, meeting the curious gaze of several people, his fingers slightly bent, silver nails shining with cold light from the fingertips.
It’s cold and dangerous.
Several people swallowed saliva, this thing can be very dangerous.
The sabre-toothed tiger grinned, can’t wait to give his brother a surprise.
……
X Academy, the principal’s office.
Charles was sitting at his desk, when a knock on the door sounded just in time.
“Come in.”
He said with a smile.
The door to the room pushed open and Emma walked in.
Maybe it was the love that made Emma more and more beautiful.
“What do you want from me?”
She sat down in front of Charles and asked in a low voice, then added, “Hurry up and say, I have a class later.”
Charles mused and said, “I’ll be away for a few days after a while, so I’m counting on you for those two days at school, and I’m afraid you’ll have something to do, so I’ll say hello to you in advance.”
Emma casually waved her hand and said, “Small matter, I know.”
With that, she got up and walked out the door, while walking to the door, but footsteps, turned back and asked, “You do not want to go on a date, right?”
Charles smiled slyly and said, “Guess.”
Emma laughed and shook her head, whispering ‘boring’ before turning around and leaving the office.
……
Clark entrusted all the house sales to the real estate agent.
To this day, he can’t forget the look on the face of the man who received him when he saw him pull out a stack of real estate certificates.
His mouth hung open so wide that his jaw looked like it was about to drop, and if he hadn’t reminded him, he suspected that the other man would have forgotten to breathe because of the overwhelming excitement.
Although it would take a while for the house to sell, he was well on his way to completing the task of buying it.
