Two Realms Resale: I Use Core Crystals to Exchange for Antiques

In her previous life, Yu Bai was not only miserably killed by her boyfriend and his cheating partner, but her mother, younger brother, and four older brothers also suffered tragic fates, some dying...

Chapter 195 Hot Potato

Yu Bai always does what he says, and his ability to take action is amazing.

The day after the banquet, just as the sky was getting light, the roar of construction vehicle engines could be heard at the entrance of the village.

Several trucks loaded with sand, gravel and cement, as well as a small excavator, drove towards the dilapidated old house of Old Man Yu.

That's not a house at all, it's clearly a pile of ruins!

The strange heavy snow and huge rocks had already smashed the adobe and thatched houses into pieces. Now only broken walls and ruins are left, looking even more desolate in the morning breeze.

Old Man Yu and Wang Guifen were supported by Yu Dongshun and his wife. When they arrived at the scene tremblingly, their legs felt weak when they saw the scene.

Wang Guifen, in particular, turned pale and could hardly stand when she thought of the horrific scene that night.

If Yu Dongshun and his wife had not been there to hold them tightly, the old couple would have collapsed on the spot.

Even so, Old Man Yu's pitiful self-esteem and greedy nature emerged at this time.

He cleared his throat, trying hard to show the dignity of the head of the family, and spoke loudly to Yu Bai who was not far away.

"Well, that... Xiaobai, if you're going to build one, build it grandly, a five-story building!"

"Yes, five layers! We have to use the best materials, no sloppiness!"

He raised his voice very high, as if he was afraid that others could not hear him, as if he was the one who made the final decision on the house and Yu Bai was just a sucker who paid the money.

Yu Bai didn't even raise his eyelids when he heard this, but just said indifferently to the person in charge of the construction team beside him.

"Just as my grandfather said, three floors."

"As for the materials, just follow the normal standards for building houses in the village. Just use the same materials as everyone else. No need to be special."

The person in charge of the construction team was a shrewd middle-aged man, and he could naturally tell who in the family really had the final say.

"Okay, three floors!"

As soon as these words came out, Old Man Yu’s face froze instantly.

Yu Bai's move was naturally not due to excessive money.

She knew very well that now that she had been reborn, everything she did and every word she said would be infinitely magnified.

She agreed to build a house for the old couple, but it was just a face-saving project for outsiders to see.

The villagers would only see that Yu Bai had forgiven the past and repaid evil with kindness. She was even willing to pay for building a new house for her grandparents who had treated her so harshly in the past. What a broad mind and vision she had!

With this good reputation, many of the things she will do next will go much more smoothly.

This money can be regarded as advertising fees to pave the way for her future career.

As for what materials to use, as long as the house is liveable, safe and sturdy, who would care?

Old Man Yu didn't care about all this. He just felt that he had been humiliated in public. He immediately became furious and started yelling at Yu Bai.

"You damn girl, are you trying to fool us old couple?"

"Three floors? Using ordinary materials? Are you reluctant to spend money?"

Yu Bai then slowly turned around, looking directly at Old Man Yu with a cold gaze, a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Sir, I don't have that much spare money."

"I bought this house for my late father, as a token of my filial piety to you two. If you think the materials are not good and you don't want to live in it, that's easy."

She paused, her voice was not loud, but every word was clear.

"How about you pay half the price yourself and use the best materials?"

When he heard that he had to pay for it himself, Old Man Yu's arrogance, which had just been built up, instantly deflated like a punctured ball. He stuck his neck out for a long time and couldn't utter a word.

Wang Guifen was so anxious that she kept pulling his sleeve, signaling him to stop being stubborn.

In the end, Old Man Yu could only glare at Yu Bai fiercely and closed his mouth reluctantly.

He finally understood that his granddaughter was now too independent to be controlled by anyone!

After the dust settled, Yu Bai explained the follow-up matters clearly and paid the deposit to the construction team leader on the spot.

As for what Old Man Yu and Wang Guifen felt, she didn't even bother to spare them a glance, and simply turned around and left.

She has more important things to do today.

Speaking of which, the "bravery" medal that she and her third brother Yu Nian received was far more effective than expected.

The most direct benefit was that the business license for the supermarket she had been planning for a long time was obtained surprisingly smoothly with almost no obstacles.

During this period, under Yu Nian's personal supervision, the renovation of the supermarket has been nearing completion. Shelves, freezers, cash register systems, etc. are all available. It only needs the final cleaning and stocking before it can be opened on a certain day.

This time, Yu Bai went to the county to do the final acceptance.

The car drove into the county town and stopped in front of the door of the "Yujia Life Supermarket" which was about to open.

As soon as Yu Bai got off the car, he frowned slightly.

Inside the supermarket with its doors open, besides a few decorators who were doing the final finishing work, there were also two young figures who looked out of place.

Her second uncle's two sons, Yu Peng and Yu Xiang.

At this moment, the two brothers were rolling up their sleeves and helping the workers fix rows of brand new metal shelves to the wall with sweat on their foreheads. They were also shouting orders, looking like the ones in charge.

Yu Bai's cold gaze swept across the two of them, and finally landed on his third brother Yu Nian, who was holding a blueprint and demonstrating to the workers in the store.

Yu Nian seemed to sense something, and when he looked up, he met his sister's questioning gaze. He immediately spread his hands and mouthed silently, "I can't drive her away."

Yu Bai snorted in her heart. She could tell what these two cousins ​​were planning just by thinking with her toes!

It's simply because he sees that her family is now "rich", so he's trying to get in on the fun and get a piece of the pie.

But Yu Bai didn't want to have anything to do with them.

Let’s not talk about the brothers’ inherent bad nature of taking shortcuts and changing with the wind.

When they were young, they relied on their age and being boys to gang up on her and her brothers, and Yu Bai remembered every single one of them clearly!

What's more, not long ago in the old house, if she and her brothers hadn't been so strong, Yu Peng and Yu Xiang, two greedy guys, would have planned to snatch those "antiques" from her and sell them for money!

The current diligence and initiative are only because the situation is stronger than the people, and they have temporarily restrained their minions.

There was no guarantee that these two people would not stab her in the back for greater benefits in the future!

However, having said that, they are still blood relatives after all.

If we really act too ruthlessly and drive them away without any mercy, there is no guarantee that these two brothers will do something irrational.

For a moment, Yu Bai was in a dilemma.

It really feels like a thorn in the back when you use it.

No, I'm afraid they'll do something bad behind my back.

These are two hot potatoes!

After all, there is only a thief who can steal for a thousand days, but how can you guard against thieves for a thousand days?
