Chapter 268 Request
"Ah Yu, I heard from Ah Xiang that your family's company not only does decoration, but also has a house construction business?"
"And now you're in charge of everything?" An Songxiang's friend asked after breakfast.
An Songyu nodded in response while casting a questioning glance at her younger sister beside her.
Unfortunately, An Songxiang turned her head away when her sister looked over.
She looked around, glancing at the sky, the ground, and her left and right, but refused to look directly at her older sister.
Now, An Songyu understood everything.
"Would it be convenient for you to help build my house?" Ah Ling asked earnestly.
An Songyu wasn't surprised by Ah Ling's request, but she was surprised by: "Including building a house?"
“Yes!” Ah Ling nodded affirmatively.
An Songyu subconsciously glanced at her younger sister, who still looked like she couldn't look her in the eye.
I knew then that this was not a simple matter.
After thinking for a moment, An Songyu asked:
Where are you planning to build your house?
"What kind of houses are you planning to build this time?"
“You guys are actually quite familiar with the place where my family is planning to build a house; it’s in Rongdi,” Ah Ling said, glancing at her friend.
Then he said, "It's about halfway from your neighborhood towards Chengdong Park."
"As for what kind of house to build... if the land is about three acres, what kind of house do you think would be suitable?"
"Wh...what?" An Songyu swallowed hard, unable to believe it.
She must have misheard.
Is the land measured in acres?
Ah Ling seemed to fully understand why An Songyu was shocked.
After all, An Songxiang's reaction was similar when she mentioned it to her last time.
So she explained carefully:
"Actually, that was a piece of land that wasn't very valuable to begin with. My grandfather's generation lived there."
"Back then, that area couldn't even be considered a city."
“My grandfather’s generation had many brothers, so they simply built a house to enclose the area, and used the land in the middle to grow their own vegetables.”
"Later, that area became a city, and everyone's houses changed from village collective to state-owned."
"But if you want to trade or transfer the land, you have to pay a land transfer fee."
“After discussing it, my grandfather and his family thought that they would have many children and grandchildren in the future, so they simply paid all the land transfer fees for that large piece of land.”
“But over the years, my dad and his family have started their own families and even their children have grown up.”
"But they had absolutely no intention of going back to build houses."
"In the last two years, as the old man has gotten older, they have wanted to rebuild their ancestral home."
At this point, Ah Ling couldn't help but twitch her lips.
What a cursed ancestral home!
According to her father, those single-story tiled houses were something that his generation completely avoided.
It was also because their family members were daring and hardworking, coupled with the favorable conditions of the times.
Over the years, their family has bought not only an apartment building, but also a villa.
But the elderly people in the family are very stubborn!
They even said they were destined never to be buried in their ancestral graves.
If you can't even go back to your ancestral home, then there's no hope for living like this.
So for the past two years, the dozen or so cousins have been figuring out how to rebuild their ancestral home.
The problem is, building an ancestral home is easy.
But actually building it won't be that easy.
Especially since they themselves had no idea what the actual building would look like, it has been delayed until now.
It's clear that we can't delay any longer.
She then remembered that Ashu had contacted the interior designer recommended by Xiang last time.
Later, when she asked Ah Xiang, she learned that their family originally did interior decoration, but built a house.
As for the reason for doing interior decoration.
It was simply that they wanted to renovate their own home and the homes of the villagers properly.
However, they couldn't find a suitable designer, so they decided to do it themselves.
Unexpectedly, An Songyu, a graduate of Nanjing University, grasped the specific style of the decoration.
And An Songyu's boyfriend, who also graduated from Nanjing University and studied architecture, personally drew the design drawings.
In addition, he had a classmate who was very talented in design.
Instead, they gradually developed their own style.
Judging from the design drawings of the four people who came from the past.
Ah Ling also felt that Ah Xiang's family did indeed have something special.
In addition, they came to Happiness Garden this time.
Yesterday, she took the opportunity to visit more than one interior design studio.
Then she discovered that even with the same template for the decorating style.
They also make some minor adjustments based on the different circumstances of each family.
I heard this wasn't even at the customer's request.
On the contrary, Anjia took the initiative to make the decision based on each family's situation.
This may indeed be partly due to the fact that everyone in Jiangcun is one of their own.
But Ah Ling also felt that being able to do this much might truly satisfy everyone in their family, young and old.
But An Songyu was only somewhat bewildered.
She glanced at Ah Ling, then at the other two, before asking uncertainly:
"So you mean you want to entrust your family's ancestral home's three acres of land to us, and let us handle everything from design to construction to decoration in one go?"
Ah Ling's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands happily:
"Yes, yes, that's it! One step at a time!"
An Songyu rubbed his forehead helplessly: "Ah Ling, we don't have any experience in this kind of construction!"
"This shouldn't be a big deal, right?" Ah Ling spread her hands, not thinking it was a problem at all.
“Our plot of land is quite large, but we can’t just build one house on it!”
“I heard from Ah Xiang that your family has a lot of experience in building houses in both good and bad areas.”
“I also went to see it myself. Although the houses in Liangdi are not very distinctive, they are obviously of good quality.”
“Over in Rongdi, I noticed that the houses your family built are quite distinctive.”
"Especially that apartment of yours, with the shop downstairs and the building upstairs."
"It not only makes reasonable use of the geographical environment, but also takes into account the aesthetics."
"I think it's not bad to have this kind of awareness."
After all, it's likely that the design concept for Anjia's project, though actually derived from Anjia, was indeed chosen by them.
But settling down also requires gathering information about their needs.
Wouldn't the houses designed then be different from the ones they're building now?
Seeing that An Songyu still didn't seem interested, Ah Ling smiled again:
"Ah Yu, I heard from Ah Xiang that your uncles have been spending a lot of time in Fengyin Bay lately?"
"Over there, you acquired a piece of land and plan to build a house with a basement, a shopping mall downstairs, and residences upstairs?"
An Songyu couldn't deny this point either.
But she couldn't help but secretly glare at her younger sister.
"Having witnessed the construction of such a tall building, surely your uncles and elders wouldn't have planned for your company to be built entirely in such small buildings, would they?"
Ah Ling looked at An Songyu with exceptional certainty.
She believes that it doesn't matter whether it's passive or active.
Since Anjia has established a construction and decoration company.
Sooner or later, it will definitely end up on this path.
