While waiting for the funds to come back, Qiao Xia and her father became very busy. Upon learning that the unfinished building had been redeveloped by a different developer, the residents all kissed each other.
They had paid all the money for the house to the previous real estate developer, and it was clearly not allowed for Qiao Zhaoxing to demolish the building or build something else on the land first.
Faced with homeowners who sit downstairs every day holding banners painted in red paint to protest, the only thing they can do is to finish building the house and hand it over to the homeowners as soon as possible.
To ensure her father's safety, Qiao Xia hired thirty bodyguards in suits.
Qiao Zhaoxing, who had just experienced the joy of success, broke down again, "Xia Bao, does my existence have no meaning to this society at all?"
Qiao Xia patted his shoulder and comforted him, "How could you think like that? I heard that the real estate developer was about to go bankrupt before you bought this unfinished building."
"You not only took over his mess, but also gave him 12 billion yuan, single-handedly reviving a company. How can that not be considered charity?"
Qiao Xia's sincere words of comfort were like two sharp knives stabbing into her father's chest, making Qiao Zhaoxing cry even louder.
Qiao Xia truly couldn't understand Qiao Zhaoxing's suffering at all. After all, in her opinion, with the system around, they would never lack money, so they should enjoy life to the fullest.
It's good to pursue dreams like her mother. If you only think about making money, you become a slave to money. Money controls them, not the other way around.
Helping those whose money was embezzled by developers to build their houses is a way of giving back to society and doing a great deed.
Seeing her father so heartbroken, Qiao Xia could only comfort him, saying, "Even though we can't collect money for the house now that it's built, we can collect money for other things."
"?" Qiao Zhaoxing looked at her in confusion.
Qiao Xia led her elderly father to the rooftop. "The reason this land was so expensive when it was first put up for sale was because the new subway line the government is building next year will pass through here."
"With improved transportation, there is more foot traffic. People are money. If a developer sells only one residential building, the remaining space can be used to build a shopping mall, an amusement park, or a commercial street. It's a sure-fire way to make money."
Qiao Xia gave a thumbs up, "Dad, you have a good eye. There must have been a lot of people eyeing this land, but you have the guts to take it so quickly."
"Is...really? Actually, I'm not as good as you say." Qiao Zhaoxing was flattered by the praise and waved his hand shyly, but his body betrayed him as he threw himself back into real estate construction.
Seeing that her father had been fooled, Qiao Xia silently breathed a sigh of relief. What she didn't know was that someone was really furious about this land.
Mu's family
"Are you all useless? You can make mistakes even with well-arranged plans, and let the duck that was about to be eaten fly away!" The slick-looking young man slammed the documents heavily on the table, and the middle-aged executives sitting around the table were so afraid that they didn't dare to breathe.
"That's enough, Xiaoze," the person sitting in the main seat said.
The previously aggressive boy immediately sat back down like a docile kitten, explaining with a face full of resentment, "I just feel sorry for my brother's hard work. That brat Mu Xiaozhu was already on the verge of bankruptcy, and now she's going to make a comeback."
Mu San glanced at him indifferently, "Xiao Zhu is not good at management, but the Mu family still has the backing of her companies. Xiao Ze's words make it sound like the Mu family has some ulterior motives."
Mu Xiaozhe's face turned pale, and a little sweat appeared on his forehead. "Yes, I misspoke."
Mu San stopped looking at him. "Have you found out which group bought that piece of land?"
“Miss Xiaozhu has done a good job of keeping it confidential. We haven’t found out which company it is yet, but there is an old man and a young boy there every day monitoring the construction site. I have already informed the homeowners who bought the houses.”
The man responded casually, "No rush. Most of the businesses under the Juling Group have been taken over by the Mu family. The rest are just small-scale operations. Since Xiaozhu likes it, let her continue to have fun outside."
"As for that piece of land, it's fine to take it back before the government officially starts construction."
"yes."
*
Qiao Xia and Qiao Zhaoxing spent three days eating dirt at the construction site, proving with the excavator that hadn't rested for a single day that they genuinely wanted to finish the abandoned project and had no intention of being perfunctory.
Seeing this, the homeowners felt hopeful and stopped causing trouble in front of the construction site.
Qiao Xia looked at the extra balance in her account and quickly transferred five million to herself, determined to go see handsome men and beautiful women to relieve her physical and mental fatigue.
Qiao Zhaoxing naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
Just as Qiao Xia was getting ready to head to the battlefield, she suddenly received a phone call. The person on the other end spoke unclearly, and in the end, all that was left was hysterical crying.
Looking at the IP address on the other end of the phone, Qiao Xia had a bad feeling. She called the police while rushing back to the small county town.
Upon arriving at the hospital, she was told that Jiang Xiaomian's mother had already been discharged, and she had no idea where Jiang Xiaomian lived.
Just as she was at her wits' end, Zhao Yuncheng called, "Did you call the police? Come to the police station now."
Qiao Xia immediately drove there. As soon as she entered, she saw Jiang Xiaomian lying on a chair covered in blood, with her wounds simply bandaged.
Jiang's mother had regained consciousness, but she was still in poor condition. She kept reaching out to Jiang Xiaomian, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Opposite them stood a group of burly men led by Jiang Tianci. Upon seeing Qiao Xia, their eyes widened in fury. "It was you! You did it!"
They lunged at Qiao Xia with all their might, but were held firmly in place by the handcuffs.
Hearing the sound, Jiang Xiaomian managed a weak smile and said, "You've come."
Qiao Xia frowned. "What's going on?"
Jiang Xiaomian burst out laughing, a hearty laugh, while Jiang Tianci roared, "I'll kill you! I'll definitely kill you!"
They bought Jiang Xiaomian's house for 100,000 yuan. When they learned that Jiang Xiaomian's house was on the main railway line, the compensation could be as high as 20 million yuan. Jiang Tianci became greedy and refused the developer's offer to pay the difference. He just waited for the government to come and demolish the house so he could get a good price.
Despite Jiang Tianci and others' best efforts to restrain themselves, the thought of soon having money made them unable to resist overspending, and once the door was opened, they couldn't stop.
The real estate developer harbored resentment because of Jiang Tianci's rejection, but on the surface, he opened a mahjong parlor and even took the initiative to invite him to play mahjong.
At first, it was just small-scale gambling, but provoked by the real estate developer's words, Jiang Tianci and his group started playing bigger and bigger games. By the time they realized what was happening, the IOUs they had written had already gambled away the compensation money for the house.
But what's even more of a nightmare is that the railway was re-routed, bypassing Jiang Xiaomian's old house, and they won't get a single penny.
