Chapter 309 Three Mu of Homestead Land
Although the person had left, An Songyu and the others were still troubled.
Yuan Qionghua looked at An Songyu: "I don't think they'll give up on this so easily!"
An Songyu was also extremely helpless, as she hadn't yet discussed Ah Xiang's friend's matter with her family.
Another matter came up urgently here.
After thinking it over, An Songyu decided to take this opportunity to confess everything.
To avoid the village chief and the others going directly to my uncle, who only considered the situation here.
So, after dinner, when everyone in the family was present, An Songyu solemnly said to everyone, "Today I have something I want to discuss with you all."
Yuan Qionghua had just finished tidying up the food on the dining table.
She thought An Songyu was going to talk about what happened in the afternoon, and fearing that Bi Lizhu would criticize An Songyu again, she sat down as well.
However, after An Songyu spoke...
"Dad, Mom, Aunt, Fourth Aunt, Aunt, there's something I'm not entirely sure about. I originally planned to discuss it with you after I was more certain."
"But given today's situation, I've decided to let everyone know first."
As she spoke, she glanced at An Songxiang before continuing:
“When we held our housewarming banquet in Jiangcun last time, A Xiang’s friend came over and made a suggestion.”
“Her family lives in Rongdi and has a plot of land that is three acres in size. They want to entrust us with rebuilding it.”
"But because we had never done such a project before, I declined at the time."
"However, later, based on some information that Ah Heung brought back from Hong Kong Island, Ah Yu, Ah Nian, and I are studying the feasibility."
"By now, I've figured it out a little bit."
"So I've arranged to meet with Ah Ling in the next few days to talk, and at the same time, I need to collect some information on high-end building materials on the market."
Yes, in the construction of these luxury homes, there are really not many places where ordinary building materials are actually used.
An Songyu has actually been communicating with more than just Jian Ziyu recently.
Even Ah Ling has been communicating with them since a few days ago.
Now, she has roughly gathered information about the preferences of Ah Ling's elders.
Next, after she and Ah Ling finalized things, she will have further discussions with them.
Aside from An Songxiang, who was helping to collect information, only a little bit knew about what An Songyu was doing.
The rest of the family had never even heard of it.
An Songlin was young, and he was the first to react.
She couldn't help but look at her two younger sisters, asking with some disbelief, "A total of three acres of land for building a home, and you're only building one ancestral home?"
One mu of land is equivalent to more than 600 square meters.
How much is three mu of land?
Nearly 2,000 square meters?
It was just to build an ancestral home.
Wait, he seems to vaguely remember this area.
Their Fengyin Bay land is only slightly larger than this.
This is really... Fengyin Bay is going to be built into a two-story commercial center.
But the family only built their ancestral home on this land.
At that moment, An Songlin's long-held belief that his family's assets would be quite good after the demolition began to waver.
"It's not entirely certain how this ancestral home will be built—whether it will be just one house or several," An Songyu replied rather cautiously.
According to what Ah Ling said, strictly speaking, the land wasn't just owned by her grandfather's family.
It was jointly owned by Grandpa and his brothers.
So it's really hard to say exactly how this house was built.
"I see!" An Songlin and the rest of the An family finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.
But An Songxiang said leisurely, "Although it doesn't necessarily mean building just one house, this ancestral home does require to be built as a whole."
"Just like traditional gardens, there can be front and back yards, left and right yards, pavilions and small courtyards, and so on."
"But in general, they all have to be integrated into one large courtyard."
"A small door or side door can be opened, but there must be a main gate, artificial hill, garden, etc."
"Isn't Western-style architecture all the rage now?" Xuan Ying said softly.
"That's about right, main building, annex, front garden, back garden, outdoor swimming pool, and so on!" An Songxiang has been looking at a lot of luxury homes lately, so she can rattle off all of them off easily.
Come to think of it, they seem to have obtained quite a few blueprints for luxury homes.
But that was just a basic version.
That is, only the main building and initial decoration are included.
After the actual homeowner moves in, every house undergoes a year or two of high-quality renovations.
Besides these, there are also many renovations and additions.
Therefore, these blueprints were not as important as An Songyu and the other two thought.
Of course, even with the abilities of just the three of them, or even an ordinary construction company, it would be difficult to obtain such a contract.
"An outdoor swimming pool?" Jiang Shanshan repeated blankly, then clicked her tongue in amazement.
She's never even seen a swimming pool in the city before!
Even before this, she had never heard of having to find a special place to swim.
In their village, the fishponds, large and small, serve as natural swimming pools for the village children from childhood to adulthood.
However, city dwellers are not only particular, but also extremely expensive.
Indeed, unless you build your own swimming pool, there's little hope of finding a pond to swim in like the village kids do.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Shanshan calmed down.
“I’m just giving a brief example; that thing isn’t standard equipment in all luxury homes.” An Songxiang shrugged slightly.
What she didn't say is that outdoor swimming pools aren't necessarily a standard feature in all luxury homes.
However, it is true that many luxury homes have swimming pools.
It's just that theirs is more high-end, with an indoor heated swimming pool.
The rooftop outdoor swimming pool, etc.
The variety and complexity that can be achieved are far greater than those of an outdoor swimming pool!
However, after hearing An Songxiang's words, the other members of the An family also understood what An Songyu meant earlier.
Yes, if this were them, they would probably have rejected it just like An Songyu initially thought.
But looking at An Songyu now...
"Xiaoyu, what are your thoughts now?" An Jianping looked at his daughter solemnly.
An Songyu glanced at her younger sister, who was already quite nervous, before speaking:
"After thinking about it carefully, I realized that this was an opportunity."
"We really don't have any experience in building luxury homes."
"But Ah Ling wasn't unaware of our situation when she approached us."
"But we are not without advantages either."
"First of all, we will definitely respect their opinions more than other companies."
"Secondly, we must also maintain the construction quality that Ah Ling values."
"Furthermore, to build such houses, we certainly can no longer rely solely on our own people."
"The next steps, such as finding a designer and communicating with them, are all things to consider."
"However, I plan to see Ah Ling first before worrying about these things."
"After all, we haven't had any initial communication yet, so I can't be sure if we can really do this project."
"We can't be sure what Ah Ling's attitude is."
Such a project would certainly cost a lot.
Is Ah Ling truly able to make complete decisions?
