Gu Weiwei said with a smile.
“We all know the value of that land. Now that I’ve bought it, it’s not appropriate for you to want it back.”
“But it actually cost over 300 million when it was auctioned off. You bought it for 90 million, which is not in line with the market,” Madam Qin said anxiously.
It was bought for over 300 million back then, and now it's worth more than 300 million.
“But Mr. Hou sold it to me at this price. Doing business is just a matter between the buyer and seller.” Gu Weiwei smiled gently and spoke softly, but she was unwilling to back down even a little.
Unable to persuade him, Madam Qin tugged at Old Master Qin's sleeve, signaling him to think of a solution.
Old Master Qin sighed with difficulty and looked at Gu Weiwei.
"Mrs. Fu, the Qin family has suffered a great loss by selling this land at such a price."
“But when I bought this land, it already belonged to Mr. Hou according to the agreement. Our transaction was normal. As for the Qin family’s losses… that’s none of my business,” Gu Weiwei said with a smile.
After thinking for a moment, Old Master Qin conceded and said...
"In that case, you bought this land for 90 million, and I will buy it back from you for double the price."
Although there was a slight loss, being able to get that land back meant that the loss wasn't too great.
Gu Weiwei smiled. At first glance, she did seem to have the upper hand with this offer, but now that the land deed was in his hands, whether to return it or how to return it was entirely up to her.
So she also took a step back and said...
“Grandpa, it’s not easy for you to come all this way, but I really can’t give up this land. If you think I’ve gotten too much of a bargain, then I’ll make up the difference for the price you paid when you bought it.”
“This…this won’t do. We don’t want the money, we just want the land deed back,” Madam Qin said resolutely.
That piece of land was bought for over 300 million, but its value has more than doubled since then.
She still wants to pay them the original price, and since her eldest daughter-in-law has already taken a sum of money, even if she makes up the difference, it will only be a little over 100 million.
“I think the same way, I don’t want money either,” Gu Weiwei insisted.
Once she acquired that land, it would be a highly profitable venture after development; how could she possibly return it to them?
"Mrs. Fu, you can't be so unreasonable." Seeing her firm attitude, Mrs. Qin couldn't help but get a little anxious.
After remaining silent, Old Madam Fu spoke in a deep voice.
"Who are you calling unreasonable? Weiwei has already bought this land, and you're coming here to want it back. You're the unreasonable ones."
"Besides, the Fu family helped us acquire that land back then."
...
Fu Shengying also chimed in, "Weiwei is willing to make up the difference for you. You can decide for yourselves whether to accept it or not."
The implication is that regardless of whether you want the money or not, the land deed will not be returned to you.
Madam Qin was unwilling to give up, but Old Master Qin had no desire to stay here any longer.
"Let's go back and discuss it with them."
"Alright, think it over carefully before you talk about it," Gu Weiwei said with a light smile.
After the servants saw off Old Master Qin and Madam Qin, Madam Fu glanced at Gu Weiwei.
"Are you really planning to keep that land?"
"Yes, the profits from the development can be used for charity," Gu Weiwei said.
Give the land back to them; she's wasted her time.
She felt uncomfortable keeping it if she didn't return it to them, so she decided to develop it, make money, and do something meaningful.
Grandma Fu listened and expressed her deep agreement.
"Tomorrow I'll have someone go back to the old house to get my bankbook and seal. You can just go ahead and do it."
Fu Shengying listened and echoed her sentiments.
"Bring ours along too."
Gu Weiwei was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this; what did it mean that everyone was prepared to hand over their life savings to her?
