The Strange Adventure of a Broke Mercenary

Chapter 449 Jake Vacations 1



Chapter 449 Jake Vacations 1

And Jake was like that too, he was not arrogant, but he didn't like it when he had to buy a house in Miami and they said to and showed him only the cheapest houses for him, of course, Jake wasn't picky and would probably choose one of the houses that were for sale.

The real estate agent showed Jake homes in Beverly Hills, Beverly Park, Hidden Hills, Malibu Colony Beach and many other neighborhoods, Jake saw incredible homes and also saw smaller houses and very expensive and small apartments just because they were in a prestigious neighborhood.

So Jake made it clear that he just wanted to buy mansions and didn't want small houses and apartments, Jake was not against buying apartments, but for him, it wouldn't do because he wanted to buy a mansion in an upscale Los Angeles neighborhood just for the sake of security.

He didn't want to live in a place that had little security so as not to risk that what happened in Miami would be repeated again, and he knew that the most prestigious neighborhoods were safer.

So after two days of a lot of searching, Jake found the house that was perfect for him, it was a mansion in Bel Air that the real estate agent just showed Jake to impress him because this was one of the most expensive mansions in Los Angeles.

But he didn't expect Jake to be enchanted by this mansion and ask to see it, the real estate agent luckily was really a man with many contacts and got the keys to the mansion to show the land to Jake.

It wasn't just the mansion that was big, the lot was also very big and that's why the mansion was so expensive, after all, it was in a prestigious neighborhood in Los Angeles and was even on a lot that was a kind of condominium with high security.

But Jake wanted this mansion precisely because of that, it was much bigger than in Miami and Jake thought what he wanted to do with this mansion as soon as he saw it, as the real estate agent saw that Jake was really interested in the mansion he decided to say the price of the mansion.

It was a Mansion in Bel Air, 73,000 m², 15 million dollars, the house had 7 large rooms with one bathroom in each room, 13 bathrooms throughout the house, the house had an elevator and a garage for seven cars.

Seeing this Jake started to imagine how he could use all this land for him, Jake saw that he had a house for employees and a large area, Jake also looked inside the mansion that was as big as it looked and started to think about what he would do.

On the ground, there were two houses for employees, an office, a swimming pool and a free area that Jake would order to build a basketball court and an Olympic running track just as it was at his home in Miami.

The house would still have a cinema room, library, and gym, in addition to a soundproofed musical studio and completely assembled like the professional, Jake naturally thought of Kate when he thought of buying this house.

Even if he didn't end up dating her, Jake could return to playing the piano and the instruments he enjoyed playing in his past life and had no opportunity and time to play on his second chance.

$ 15 million could certainly seem like a lot of money, but Jake didn't think so because he remembered looking at house prices in the future and a mansion like this would cost close to $ 40 million in 2019.

"I am going to buy this mansion, if you can prepare the mansion purchase contract and the land deed as soon as possible I would appreciate it, I need to travel in a few days and I will hire some companies to prepare some renovations in the house for the next months."

The real estate agent was even more shocked when he heard that Jake said he would buy the mansion, but he was smart and realized that Jake had the money to buy the mansion and was not kidding.

If this mansion were to be sold he would not receive a large percentage of commission because of the high value of the house, but would still receive 5 percent which was $ 750,000 on the sale of this mansion.

Because of that, the real estate agent was very efficient and in a few days he was able to prepare the sales contract and Jake paid to receive the contract for the house, the real estate agent was very happy with this because he had guaranteed an income to make him well for two years until.

So he was smart and left his contact to Jake in case he wanted to buy another mansion in the future, Jake would definitely buy other houses in the future, especially when he had billions of dollars that he was not sure where to spend.

After buying this mansion Jake still had one more thing to do, he always wanted to buy a great car, but he always had to save money to invest, but this time Jake didn't have to worry about it because he knew he would still receive the money NBA and Matthew's company profits.

So Jake didn't want to hesitate any longer and decided to buy a car that he always wanted, but Jake had a problem that he didn't find almost any car from that time really beautiful, and a car other than a house was not a good investment.

Unless he wanted to buy an old car that always appreciated, but Jake didn't think about doing it, so Jake thought that in the future he would have to buy some cars that he really dreamed of buying.

Luckily for Jake one of the cars he liked the most even in the future was still sold, it was the McLaren F1 that was always one of the fastest and most praised cars of that time, it was one of Jake's favorite cars that were very beautiful.

In addition to being beautiful, it was fast because it could easily reach 221 mph (356 km / h) at full speed, it could reach 0–60 mph (97 km / h) in 3.2 s, in addition, it was practical because it had three places different from others cars that reached that speed.

Of course, Jake wasn't going to accelerate much because of what happened to him in the past, he was lucky to have overcome his trauma with cars, so he didn't intend to go over 80 mph even in places that it was safe for him to accelerate more.

But a man's pride was a strange thing because even though he knew he couldn't accelerate, a man sometimes liked having a car that he knew could reach 221 mph.

Jake really liked that car and didn't think about selling it or thought of the car as an investment, but he knew that this car would become a collector's dream and could be worth up to $ 20 million at auction.

This was the last year that this car would be manufactured because it was too expensive even for the wealthy who liked a car, but Jake didn't think it was expensive because in the future a $ 3 million car would not be considered as expensive.

Jake was lucky to be in Los Angeles and easily found a place of imported cars that had contact with McLaren, Jake didn't take long and chose a yellow McLaren F1 that he liked a lot.

In a few hours, Jake bought the car for 1.2 million dollars, so Jake had a car that he always wanted and also had a house that he always wanted to have, it was two more dreams that had come true in just one day.

Jake would have to wait a few months before he could receive the car and be able to drive with him, but he was in no hurry and asked them to leave the car at the import store and he would come back to get the car right there.

After solving his house and his car Jake still had $ 24.4 million and had to save that money to make the investment next year in the Google company, next year Jake would receive the money from the NBA and also from the company from Matthew even when it was to invest in the Google company, so Jake was cool.

The other day Jake finally traveled to Miami and would stay with his mother until the day of the Chicago marathon would be in October, so Jake had less than a month to stay home, but after the marathon, he intended to stay home until that he be called to start training on the Los Angeles Lakers team.

Eva was very happy when she saw that Jake had come home, it was almost 3 months since the last time they saw each other, Eva didn't think Jake would still come home that year, she thought that after filming he would go to Los Angeles to play in the NBA.

Jake had said he would come home and did as he promised, Jake told Eva that maybe he would still be there for another 3 months and she was happy with that, Jake had called Coach Frank Davis to say he was in Miami and would be in Miami for a few months.

Jake had to train before the Chicago marathon in which he would run with Zack, otherwise, he would be suspicious if he won the marathon even though he had not trained for almost 6 months after the marathon Jake would ask to improve his time in training the marathons and also for modalities of 10,000 meters and 5,000 meters.

Jake would not allow Davis to deny his training again, after all, he almost missed his chance in the last year because Coach Davis thought it was better to wait a little longer, Jake didn't even know what could happen in the next few years.

If a director asked him again to shoot another movie he liked or a movie he thought could be a success then Jake would do it, so Jake had to enjoy this end of the year which would probably be his last chance to improve his training.

Jake was concerned because they were almost at the end of 1998 and he was less than 2 years old until the Sydney Olympics in Australia that Jake wanted to at least compete in the marathon, in the 5000 meters, and in the 10,000 meters.
