Chapter 573: Killing Three Birds at Once
Shang Ruoting was still a little surprised that Shang Lifeng didn't know about the Li family's old house.
After all, he was Old Lady Shang's son, and his grandmother didn't even tell him these things.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt relieved. After all, they went to Sihe Village to seek refuge, and the fewer people who knew about their past, the better.
Now that grandma can tell me everything about the Li family's old house, I guess the old lady no longer intends to hide anything.
"That house is on the previous street. It was my grandmother's home before she got married."
"It is true." Shang Lifeng has been imprisoned for the past twenty years and does not have a good understanding of many market conditions.
"Tingting, how much is your grandmother's ancestral home worth now?"
Shang Ruoting didn't understand Shang Lifeng's intention of asking about the price of the Li family's old house. After all, she knew that he had returned from the boat penniless.
However, he still replied: "That yard is bigger than where we live now, and it will probably cost around 30,000 yuan!"
Shang Lifeng widened his eyes. This price was simply an astronomical figure for him.
Shang Ruoting was a little confused: "Why are you suddenly asking about the Li family's old house?"
Shang Lifeng didn't think too much about it: "Just now your uncle came over and said that the house was for sale, so I wanted to know the price."
However, the more Shang Lifeng spoke, the less confident he felt. If he worked as a top chef in Hong Kong, it would take him several years to earn 30,000 yuan. If he worked in mainland China, he would probably never earn that much in his lifetime.
Shang Ruoting didn't know what Shang Lifeng was thinking at the moment, she was just interested in the courtyard.
First of all, it is my grandmother's ancestral home, which is of great significance to the old lady. Secondly, the yard is much larger than the three courtyard houses I have bought so far. After it is renovated, it will definitely have a different style. Thirdly, the courtyard houses in Beijing have great potential for appreciation.
It can be said that buying this yard is killing three birds with one stone.
"I'll go find my uncle and ask him to help me find out the price of that yard."
Shang Lifeng was shocked. What was his daughter going to do?
Do you want to buy that yard?
Helping his mother buy back the old house should be his job as a son.
Although he knew that his daughter and son-in-law were rich, this was inappropriate.
Thinking of this, Shang Lifeng suddenly had an idea, which was to find a way to make money to buy the yard.
As for how to make money, he hasn't figured it out yet...
"Tingting, can you give Dad a chance?"
Shang Ruoting had just stepped out of the threshold when she heard Shang Lifeng's voice and turned back.
"Chance?"
Shang Lifeng said seriously, "I've been away from home for twenty years, and I don't know how to make up for what I owe you and your grandmother. If I could buy that house back for your grandmother myself, I'd feel better."
Shang Ruoting didn't think Shang Lifeng was bragging. With his superb cooking skills, it would definitely not be difficult for him to make money in the future.
She had already made a plan. Once Liu Dingbing's problem was solved, Shang Lifeng could go out openly and open a restaurant.
Especially as the domestic situation gradually improves, more people will start doing business in the future, and it will not be a dream to build a restaurant to a certain scale.
Therefore, Shang Ruoting can conclude that if Shang Lifeng is willing to follow his own plan, he will definitely become rich in the future.
At the same time, she was also willing to give Shang Lifeng the opportunity to make up to Old Lady Shang.
"But, what if this yard is sold?"
Even though Shang Ruoting didn't say it too directly, Shang Lifeng still understood it.
It's just a matter of waiting for him to earn enough money to buy the yard, but no one knows how long that will take. By that time, other people's yards will have been sold long ago.
Shang Lifeng was speechless for a moment. He really didn't feel confident about the current situation.
"Once Liu Dingbing's problem is resolved, I will go to Gangcheng to work as a chef. I believe I can earn enough money in a few years."
In fact, when Shang Ruoting said that just now, she did not mean to attack Shang Lifeng, but just thought of another way.
"How about I lend you the money first? And then you can pay me back when you have money." In this way, Shang Lifeng has a courtyard house in his hands, and after it appreciates in value, he will have a certain amount of capital.
Shang Lifeng refused without even thinking about it.
"That won't do. You're already married. Dad can't borrow money from you. You won't be able to hold your head up in front of Tan Chen."
Shang Ruoting didn't expect that Shang Lifeng was so thoughtful.
In this era, many people still maintain traditional ideas. If a daughter's family always asks for money, she will be looked down upon by her in-laws.
Shang Ruoting does not have such conservative ideas. What's more, she knows the character of Tan Chen and his family best, and no one will have any opinions about her.
However, she didn't want to explain too much to Shang Lifeng.
"I'll go and inquire about the price of the yard first. As for borrowing money, I'll discuss it with Tan Chen tonight."
