“I did have this thought when I was younger, but back then I had a family business to inherit, so of course I couldn’t go to that place,” the old man said. “I know why you want to buy this house, but if you think this way, others probably think the same way. It’s also because I’m going abroad and don’t want to stay here, otherwise such a nice house might not have ended up in your hands. You two—which one wants to buy it?”
Lu Qingyan isn't short of money, but if she were to buy this courtyard, she wouldn't have much left, and she probably wouldn't be able to find a job in the short term.
Besides, there was a gentleman eyeing her intently; if he raised the price, she was afraid...
The man next to Lu Qingyan was none other than Ye Li.
Since Ye Li had already decided to stay here, she naturally wouldn't live in Rong Qing's mansion. After inquiring around, she found that only this family was about to move out, so she came here to ask about the price. Unexpectedly, she also met other buyers.
You should know that prices in this place are definitely not cheap, and truly wealthy people would never look down on such a small place.
The seller wanted to see the two of them raise the price, but was Ye Li the kind of person who was willing to suffer a loss?
“Mr. Zhang, this isn’t how you do business. As far as I know, you only paid five small yellow croakers for this building back then. More than twenty years have passed, and it’s understandable that the price here might rise a bit more. But you’ve quadrupled the price, which is not fair. It’s not that there aren’t other places to sell next door, but several people have died in that house, so the feng shui is bad. If you really want to sell it, it’ll only cost two small yellow croakers. Ten, no bargaining. That’s the highest price I can offer.”
Ye Li said, looking at Boss Zhang with a half-smile.
“I won’t sell that building,” Mr. Zhang said firmly. “If you don’t like this place, then go buy the burial house next door.”
As they were talking, Boss Zhang looked in Lu Qingyan's direction, signaling her to speak.
Lu Qingyan wasn't familiar with the person selling the house, so why should she speak up for him? Besides, Ye Li looked extremely dangerous right now, and Lu Qingyan didn't want to run into anyone's crossfire.
“But I really don’t like that place. I prefer Boss Zhang’s little building.” Ye Li said, pulling out his gun and throwing it on the table.
Seeing that Lu Qingyan was useless, Boss Zhang had no choice but to step in himself. He looked at Ye Li with a forced smile, as if confirming something with him: "Mr. Ye, are you threatening me?"
"How can this be considered a threat? Mr. Zhang himself has said that he yearns for a free and unrestrained life in the mountains. I think Mr. Zhang probably hasn't seen this kind of thing much, so I'd like to let him take a good look at it."
"Ha, after all these years of traveling all over the country, what haven't I seen?"
“Since you’ve seen it before, you should know how to use it, right? One bullet and ‘bang,’ and your head explodes. I’m willing to pay for this house to give you face, but what you’re doing seems to be your way of wanting me to take my men and raid this place.”
“I, Zhang, have also made great contributions to Nancheng. How dare you! This is on Commander Rong’s territory. Do you dare to do this?” Boss Zhang brought up Rong Qing, thinking that it would make the person in front of him restrain himself.
But he didn't know what the relationship was between Ye Li and Rong Qing, or whether they would fall out because of him.
What is he anyway?
Ye Li looked at the gray-haired man in front of her, as if she had heard an extremely funny joke.
