Chang Guofu pulled Old Man Chang into the yard, closed the door, and exhaled cold air: "Dad, where's the property certificate? Let's go transfer the ownership first! We absolutely can't let Second Sister-in-law get there first!"
Although Old Man Chang was biased, he wasn't so foolish as to not be able to distinguish right from wrong. He pulled Chang Guofu aside and pressed him for an answer: "Son, have you been scammed? You rushed to transfer the property without even checking the price! You must have been cheated..."
"Dad! Why don't you listen to me!" Chang Guofu said unhappily.
"I understand, but I also think 50,000 yuan is too little. And you're in such a hurry to transfer the property, so I'm just a little worried!"
Chang Guofu has always been good at coaxing people, and this old man is the kind of person who believes whatever he says.

"I just called your workplace, I was just thinking of giving you the money!"
Chang Guofu's face turned ashen as he watched the old man pull out his bankbook from his pocket.
