"No way, Fifth Brother!" Zeng Wangcai thought for a moment and said, "I remember you used to have a house with four courtyards, very luxurious."
"I had more than one house back then!" Old Five said proudly when he heard this topic, "There were many houses with three or four courtyards, but since I couldn't fill my stomach, I followed the example of the old folks and slowly vomited them all out in exchange for food."
"No, can the house be sold?"
"How fresh! If we can't sell it, we'll starve to death!" Lao Wu said with a smile, "That's from my ancestors... I understand what you mean. You mean the higher-ups don't allow it, right? Hey, nothing is absolute. If you have money, you can buy it, and no one can find fault with it."
