Chapter 331 Shirogane Miyuki Wants to Buy a House
Little Flower ran away and ran to the giant pudding, where she started eating again.
Uchiha Ryo felt confused, but he thought it was just a child's temper being unpredictable and that he would probably be fine in a while.
"Shirogane, tell me about your situation. Why did you suddenly decide to move?"
Carrying the pudding back to the boys' table, Uchiha Ryo asked with some curiosity.
"Speaking of which, Shirogane-senpai's house isn't very close to Shuchiin Academy, is it? Shouldn't you move closer? That way you can save time commuting to and from school."
Yuichi Ishigami said that Ryo Uchiha also remembered that the two siblings from the Shirogane family would get up at five or six o'clock every morning to go to school. Kei took the train, while Miyuki Shirogane rode a bicycle, which took at least an hour to get to school.
Miyuki Shirogane smiled. "That's certainly one of the reasons, but the main reason is my dad's side."
Miyuki Shirogane's father, Dior Shirogane, recently discovered that YouTube is really profitable. He was just posting his experiences as a rant, but he ended up attracting a large number of fans.
After starting live streaming, he used his persuasive skills to connect with viewers, creating a very entertaining show. Naturally, he made a lot of money... but recently, Silver Dior discovered a problem.
A few days ago, a female viewer who had given a lot of virtual gifts during a live stream spotted the Silver Dior in the vicinity and greeted it warmly.
According to Shirogane's father, the woman was dressed somewhat provocatively and, after greeting him, even secretly followed him, trying to find out his address. Fortunately, Shirogane Dio noticed in advance and chose to take a detour...
Miyuki Shirogane thought it was unbelievable that someone could actually be infatuated with this kind of older man; the world was truly terrifying.
So Shirogane's father suggested moving. Since they had already made their first fortune with YouTube, they planned to move closer to the Tokyo metropolitan area, where there were many rich people and celebrities, so it should be safe.
"Is it safe? I remember a few years ago there was a report about a popular idol dying in front of his own house," Yu Ishigami muttered to himself.
Miyuki Shirogane gave an awkward laugh, while Ryo Uchiha patted Yu Ishigami on the head.
"Relatively speaking, it's definitely safer there, and it's also closer to Shuchiin. As for the news you mentioned... idol groups certainly have many die-hard fans. Uncle Shirogane is just a news anchor; there won't be that kind of situation."
Miyuki Shirogane continued, "So Dad is planning to take out 200,000 yen, hoping to rent a 3LDK (three bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen, and one bathroom) apartment."
Thinking about it carefully, because of their meager living conditions, the two siblings in the Shirogane family had to squeeze into one room, separated by a curtain. Now, they can finally have their own room!
So the three of them hit it off immediately and started looking for suitable houses separately.
"Renting a house... I don't know much about that. What about Ishigami?" Although Uchiha Ryo was renting a luxury apartment, he was looking for places suitable for one person to live in. The Shirogane family's situation was obviously not suitable.
Yu Ishigami seemed thoughtful. "If three people are living here, a regular apartment definitely won't do. A typical luxury apartment, like the one in Uchiha-senpai's house, would be a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment."
Shirogane's father works from home, so there aren't many location requirements, as long as it's not noisy. Also, the closer to a core area like Shuchiin, the higher the security, but it's a bit expensive.
"Actually, we found a lot of houses that met our requirements, but the rent was basically over 200,000 yen (per month)."
That's normal. This is the Tokyo metropolitan area, and Shuchiin is located in the heart of this region. If you want to buy a house here, you simply need to prepare tens or even hundreds of millions of yen.
"It's still really expensive..."
Shirogane Miyuki, a child from an ordinary family, once again realized the importance of money.
"Shirogane-senpai, but if you think about it carefully, buying a house near the school would save you the cost of train tickets and almost two hours of travel time each day."
Two extra hours every day... For Shirogane Miyuki, his days are already very full. What would he do if he had two extra hours?
If you were to use that money for part-time work, the minimum hourly wage in the Tokyo area in recent years has been 1013 yen. Working two hours a day from Monday to Friday would earn you 10,000 yen! Working six hours a day on weekends would then amount to 22,000 yen a week!
Wow! Four weeks a month, plus both siblings can work. Theoretically, they alone could almost cover the 200,000 yuan monthly rent for the house.
However, this is only in theory; when they don't lack money, the Silver Brothers and Sisters wouldn't work so hard.
But no matter how you look at it, those extra two hours each day are definitely worth it!
Miyuki Shirogane gritted his teeth. "I've decided. I'll go look at houses this afternoon and try to move in by the weekend!"
"Have you already found someone you like?" Uchiha Ryo asked casually.
"Hmm! You two want to come and take a look?"
Yu Ishigami waved his hand, "I'll pass, I'll go back after I finish my pudding."
"Interesting, then I'll go with you to take a look." Uchiha Ryo didn't have any other plans today. He originally wanted to accompany Kohana, but Kohana just ran away shyly, so he'll accompany Shirogane to look at houses instead.
Upon hearing Uchiha Ryo's agreement, Shirogane Miyuki suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's great! I was worried I'd be going alone..."
"You're alone? Aren't Xiao Gui and Uncle Baiyin going to look at houses with you?"
Miyuki Shirogane sighed. "The three of us have each chosen three different houses, and Secretary Fujiwara knows about this. She'll be accompanying Kei to look at houses today."
The boy didn't lower his voice intentionally. Fujiwara Chika turned her head and said with some pride.
"When Xiao Gui wanted to move, I came up with quite a few ideas. Today, we're determined to get this house, especially since it's not far from my house! That way, Xiao Gui can come over to play more often!"
Please! Our goal is to be close to the school, not close to your house... Shirogane Miyuki didn't say it aloud, after all, Fujiwara-san meant well.
But he wouldn't easily give up the house he had his eye on! After all, in terms of value, the house he had his eye on was far superior to the ones Xiao Gui and his father had chosen!
"In that case, let's not delay! I'll pack some pudding and take it back to find Xiao Gui!"
Fujiwara Chika picked up the plastic box and put it in, then said goodbye to Yukino and the others before running out of the gymnasium.
"Shirogane, let's go too. Ishigami Yu, go home and continue your studies, don't forget the homework I assigned you. Yukino and the others, don't forget to take Hinata and the others back!"
Yukinoshita nodded, indicating that the three children wouldn't get lost.
"Alright, Silver, where's the location?"
"I'll send your location to your phone."
Uchiha Ryo took out his phone and glanced at it. "Oh, it's not far from my hometown. I'll call Natsume to come along too."
