Will Chapter 74 become another Xiaojiang Village?
As An Jianping said this, he also felt a little guilty.
After all, this afternoon, the whole family went over, and each of the siblings got three sets!
Although it's only 60 square meters, there are four units on each floor.
Even including their siblings and the elderly couple, it only amounts to three stories.
But it really can't be called buying a house!
With this in mind, An Jianping spoke with even more confidence when he spoke again.
The Jiangcun residents who called to verify the information already knew the situation.
Despite An Jianping's efforts to deny it, the truth was indeed as his brother and the others had said.
They settled down!
Those who were among the first to sign have already bypassed them, received the first compensation payment for the demolition, and even bought an apartment!
With that thought in mind, the person on the other end hung up the phone without hesitation.
An Jianping was slightly stunned, and it took him a while to recover from the busy tone on the phone.
After thinking about it, he simply made a phone call to his older brother's house.
Just like in their afternoon, the phone rang and rang, but no one answered.
Later, An Jianping tried calling his younger brother's phone, but still no one answered.
Even mobile phones are the same.
As for the fourth son's family, An Jianping didn't even want to think about it anymore.
Today he drove his car with his sisters-in-law and a few others; I wonder if they've gotten home yet.
Thinking this, An Jianping dialed the village chief's number and called out, "Lizhu, where are your sisters-in-law?"
"How's it going? I haven't heard any news about it."
"What are they doing now?" Jiang Wenlin's rather complicated voice came through the phone.
An Jianping breathed a slight sigh of relief and replied with a smile, "There were some things to take care of at Lao Si's family's place, so they went over to handle them together."
"Are you going to buy another house?" Jiang Wenlin asked, almost as if possessed.
After asking the question, I couldn't help but chuckle.
He was also influenced by the people in the village today.
Even though they clearly knew that this was probably the effect the demolition office staff wanted to achieve, they still joined in the commotion.
An Jianping was completely stunned.
No, are the people in Jiangcun really that well-informed?
Did the whole village find out about what they had decided on at home?
An Jianping's silence stunned Jiang Wenlin, who had just finished comforting him.
He was somewhat incredulous, yet also felt an inexplicable urge, which made him subconsciously ask again, "You really went to buy another house?!"
An Jianping then came to his senses and vehemently denied it:
"Uncle Wenlin, really no, they were just there to run errands?"
"Why would you need several sisters-in-law to do something together?" Jiang Wenlin was completely unconvinced.
However, he already had some ideas in his mind.
There's no need to find out the answer over the phone.
So he bluntly asked An Jianping the purpose of his call: "Jianping, why are you calling at this hour?"
Hearing Jiang Wenlin mention this, An Jianping was also extremely helpless: "I just received a call from the village. They heard that several of our families bought apartments in the city?"
"Then you didn't buy it?" Jiang Wenlin was also extremely surprised.
An Jianping opened his mouth, as if it wasn't something he could directly deny.
So he explained the difference between buying a house and buying an apartment building again, with a bit of a headache.
Jiang Wenlin nodded dismissively.
The villagers are saying that several families bought apartments. Is it really possible that they bought them one building at a time?
That must just be buying an apartment!
But think back to the beginning of the year, when An Jianping wanted to sell his village homestead in order to buy a house for his son's wedding.
Now, on the very first day the demolition compensation is received, people can directly buy apartments.
But considering the money that had arrived in their account today, Jiang Wenlin wasn't surprised.
After all, back then, An Jianping handled all the paperwork for the mulberry-fish ponds and orchards that his family contracted in the village, as well as the houses they built.
While not everyone knew all of An Jianping's assets, they had a general idea.
By doing a little calculation based on their own demolition compensation, they can roughly know how much money their family received.
It needs to be compared to a single company.
Among An Jianping's brothers, there really isn't anyone who can compare to the village committee members.
But there's nothing we can do; the An family just loves to split up.
Thinking it over, Jiang Wenlin said decisively, "It's all thanks to your family buying the apartment; the demolition office is packed with people now."
"I reckon by today, everyone in the village who can register will have done so!"
As for those who really didn't want to register, Jiang Wenlin didn't mention them again.
"That satisfies the demolition office!" An Jianping lowered his voice and said with a light laugh.
Jiang Wenlin chuckled as well.
The fact that their first batch of demolition compensation came through so quickly is thanks to the demolition office.
As for the remaining demolition compensation, it probably won't be so easy for it to arrive.
Thinking about it, Jiang Wenlin suddenly felt a little regretful: "Jianping, I was originally planning to come and see you tomorrow as well."
"But judging from the current situation, the village will probably be completely busy starting tomorrow."
"It's good to be busy!"
"It's better to end things when they should end them!"
"That's true!" Jiang Wenlin agreed wholeheartedly, thinking about the recent troubles in Lin Village.
The two were not in the mood for any more small talk. After exchanging some more information, they hung up the phone.
An Songyu and the others, who had already gone back to their rooms to tidy up, quickly came over after seeing that the phone call had ended.
An Jianping first reassured everyone not to worry before carefully explaining the situation from the phone call.
"So, the village knows that my aunt and her two aunts bought an apartment in the city, and many people called our house this afternoon to inquire about it?" An Songyu summarized the general situation.
After seeing An Jianping nod, the group exchanged bewildered glances.
So, where did this news actually come from?
After a short while, An Jianguo and An Jianmin, who hadn't answered the phone before, also called back.
An Songyu's family finally understood the situation.
Originally, shortly after the demolition compensation was received.
The demolition office then spoke with them.
According to the demolition office, this time it's being handled as a special case.
Therefore, they will directly announce that they have received the first demolition compensation.
But we received this information this morning along with the village committee members.
It was basically impossible to keep it a secret from Jiangcun anymore.
After discussing it, the two brothers realized that what the demolition office wanted was to motivate everyone to register and expedite the demolition process.
They simply spread the word that Yuan Qionghua and her group had bought houses in the city as soon as they received the demolition compensation.
The rest of An Songyu's family knew what happened next.
"What do you think the captain meant by what he just said?" An Songxiang suddenly asked.
The An family members exchanged glances, and An Songyu couldn't help but smile:
"Won't Happiness Home become another Xiaojiang Village in the future?"
“That’s quite possible!” Bi Lizhu nodded thoughtfully.
"After all, the reason why my sister-in-law and the others chose Happiness Home was because they valued the fact that each family had enough usable space."
"Moreover, once you get used to living in a village, the idea of a house with a duplex and a park behind it becomes even more appealing."
