Chapter 337 Apartment Renovation
Although he was stopped, Li Qin showed no dissatisfaction.
He had always intended to personally verify the security situation of the apartment building.
The fact that the security guard stopped him immediately upon seeing his unfamiliar face shows that the security here at least met his minimum standards.
Looking at the security guard blocking his way, Li Qin casually took out a contract;
"Hello, I am the new owner of the apartment upstairs. This is the apartment purchase contract."
The security guard looked at Li Qin with some suspicion before taking the contract from Li Qin's hand.
Those who can work as security guards in high-end apartments are naturally of high caliber.
Therefore, the contract is understandable.
After reviewing the contract, the security guard immediately returned it to Li Qin and then apologized with a smile.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were a homeowner, that's why I stopped you."
The security guard spoke with a tone full of awe.
He only realized while reviewing the contract that this young man had actually bought four apartments on the 21st and 22nd floors in one go.
As a security guard here, I naturally know the approximate prices of the apartments.
Someone who can easily come up with hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars is definitely not someone a mere security guard like him can afford to offend.
Li Qin took back the contract and did not blame the other party. Instead, he smiled and said;
"It's okay, you're just doing what you're supposed to do. It's your responsibility to stop and ask questions when you see a stranger."
"The fact that you stopped me shows you're responsible, and that makes me feel more at ease staying here."
Upon hearing Li Qin's words, the security guard immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Li Qin smiled and said again at this moment;
"But now that you know me, don't stop me next time I come back."
Li Qin was obviously joking when he said that.
The security guard understood immediately and patted his chest to assure him.
"Mr. Li, please rest assured, there will definitely not be a next time."
Li Qin nodded in satisfaction, and then said:
"That's good. Then I'll stop chatting with you for now. I need to go upstairs and check on the apartment."
The security guards immediately made way for Li Qin.
After passing through security, Li Qin took the elevator directly to the 21st floor.
All of these are upscale residential areas, so elevators are naturally a must.
Moreover, for people of that era, this type of elevator was considered a relatively advanced model, but for Li Qin, it was simply an antique.
Li Qin felt quite uneasy as he rode in the carriage.
I'm worried it might break down at any time.
However, Li Qin was clearly overthinking things.
The elevator arrived at the 21st floor very smoothly without any problems.
As soon as Li Qin stepped off the elevator, he saw two doors on each side.
This apartment building consists of high-end apartments, all with two units per floor.
The four apartments that Li Qin bought are located on the 21st and 22nd floors respectively.
In other words, both floors now belong to Li Qin alone.
Li Qin took out the key that Hong Guang had given him earlier and first opened the door to the apartment on the left.
What comes into view is a room of about 80 or 90 square meters.
This area wouldn't be considered large in later times, but in this era, it was definitely a high-end apartment.
Furthermore, Hong Kong people are accustomed to using square feet to measure house area:
One square meter is approximately equal to 10.76 square feet;
Therefore, a 90-square-meter apartment is converted into approximately 900 square feet, close to 1000 square feet, and is therefore often referred to as a "thousand-square-foot mansion".
This is the set of rules that Li Qin is facing.
After touring the entire apartment, Li Qin discovered that although the apartment was small, it was cleverly designed and made full use of the limited space.
Moreover, the water and electricity supply is also complete.
Li Qin only needed to modify it slightly according to his own ideas to use it directly.
After viewing the first apartment, Li Qin went to see the remaining three and found that they were all in similar condition.
"Although it's a bit empty now, it makes it easier for me to start making changes later."
Only then did Li Qin realize that the prices of these three high-end apartments were lower than he had expected, possibly not only because Hong Guang had helped him negotiate the price.
Another reason could be that all the furniture and items inside have been removed.
All that's left is the apartment itself.
However, this also made it easier for Li Qin to carry out the subsequent modifications.
Li Qin casually conjured a sofa and placed it in front of the large French window, then sat on it and looked at the scenery outside.
Looking out the glass window, you can also see the tall HSBC building not far away.
At this moment, Li Qin's mind had once again entered his own sea of consciousness.
"We've inspected all the apartments; now it's time to redesign them and begin the renovations."
Although Li Qin did not have powerful office design software, he also did not have a computer.
But he possesses a divine quality even more wondrous than a computer.
Using the powerful computing capabilities of the divine entity, Li Qin transmitted his needs, ideas, and some thoughts.
Soon, a series of different apartment renovation plans were formed.
After much deliberation, Li Qin finally made his final decision.
He chose one of the options from among many.
This outfit combines current trends with a modern feel, presenting an overall sophisticated and comfortable look.
Moreover, according to this plan, Li Qin can connect several apartments directly.
For example, if the living rooms of two apartments on the same floor are separated by only one wall, Li Qin could completely remove the partition in between.
In this way, the living room area will become much larger.
It's so pleasing to the eye.
The two-story apartment can also be connected vertically, requiring only the installation of a staircase.
To match the style of that era, the renovation plan also included a fireplace in the living room.
However, the fireplace in the proposed design is far more scientific, safer, more aesthetically pleasing, and more practical than fireplaces of this era.
A fireplace can even heat all the rooms in both floors of an apartment.
This is inspired by the design concept of modern fireplaces.
After finalizing the plan, Li Qin turned around and entered the suitcase space.
He began making the necessary parts according to the renovation plan.
For example, fireplaces, pipes, tiles...
Under normal circumstances, it would naturally take a considerable amount of time to create these problems.
However, Li Qin was no ordinary person, and he did not use ordinary methods.
With the help of magical, even mysterious, magic, all the necessary raw materials and other items were completed in just one hour.
"Never mind, let's wait until the apartment renovation is finished before we eat."
It was already lunchtime, but Li Qin had no appetite at all.
He just wanted to renovate his house as soon as possible.
Only after finishing this task would he be able to focus on eating.
Otherwise, if this matter remains weighing on his mind, he won't be able to enjoy his meal properly, even if he goes out to eat.
Li Qin suddenly reappeared in the apartment.
By this time, it was already getting dark outside.
Then, all the colorful lights came on.
Central is a relatively prosperous area, and the location of Lee Chin Apartments is also near the core area.
Therefore, the scenery is quite beautiful when the lights are on.
