Zhou Xiang nodded. "Yes, that's what I mean. The key is that I can take over this section of the river. This section of the river is shared by the supply and marketing cooperative and the food station. Moreover, Ling Ran has gone to the town to negotiate and is determined to take over the northern end. We want to buy the section of the river behind the Yang family's house and the farmland to the east of the river, cut off the connection with the Tuo River, and form a lake."
After hearing this, Xie Lin finally believed that Zhou Xiang was really serious about doing this. This river is a small tributary of Tuohe River. Because Tuohe River often floods, the residents here suffer greatly, so they slowly dug out a river channel about 600 meters long and 15 meters wide.
If it is really turned into a beautiful lake park, the food station will become one of the few units in the town.
"Okay! I'll negotiate with the Yang family, and then go to the supply and marketing cooperative to discuss it."
"Thank you for your support, cousin."
"No thanks, you supported me too."
Yang family, when Yang Cheng heard that the food station was planning to sell his house to the Zhou family, he was stunned for a long time before he suppressed the grievance in his heart.
"Thank you, Station Master. So, how do you plan to accommodate our family?"
Xie Lin sighed in his heart, thinking that environment and time can really change a person! If it were the old Yang Cheng, he would have been furious.
"The Zhou family will buy your house at the current price. You can use the money to buy or build a house after leaving the food station. Or you can choose a piece of land in the food station and buy and build your own house."
When Yang Cheng heard this, the grievance in his heart disappeared. Now the housing prices in the county town have increased by more than 10 times, and in the town they have increased by 8 times.
Although his family lives in the staff quarters of the food station, Zhou Xiang should be able to get eight times the amount paid to his family in town, right?
After he figured it all out, he realized that Zhou Xiang had been holding back against his family, giving them chances time and time again. It was because he couldn't see through it that he caused so many troubles.
He softened his tone, "Stationmaster Xie, is Zhou Xiang planning something big? Do you think it's best for our family to stay at the station, or should we go out?"
Xie Lin sighed again, Yang Cheng has indeed changed a lot, now even uses honorifics.
"Yes, Zhou Xiang is going to make a big move, Yang Cheng! I also have something to say from the bottom of my heart. It would be better for you to stay at the food station."
Yang Cheng thanked him repeatedly with gratitude, "Thank you, thank you! Then, which location of the land can we choose?"
"Three choices." Xie Lin held up three fingers. "The land available for purchase in the family compound is behind the Zhou family's building, east of the Feng family's. That piece of land is larger, and because it's blocked by the Zhou family's building, it's very cheap.
There is also the half of the stinky ditch to the west of Zhou’s South Building. If you buy it, you need to dig and fill it, and it is also very cheap.
The third option is to go to the front yard and buy the small plot of land between the west side of the single dormitory and the gate wall. The unit price is twice that of the family compound."
Yang Cheng frowned. "Isn't there a large open space west of the pig pen to the courtyard wall? There aren't many pigs being moved out these days, so even if there are large trucks coming in and out, we can still save that large area by the west wall, right?"
Xie Lin shook his head. "We plan to build a processing room on that piece of land, and the Zhou family will also buy the existing processing room."
What did the Zhou family plan to do after buying the processing plant and their own house? Both houses are next to the river. Could it be that?
"The Zhou family's big move is this river?" Yang Cheng raised his hand in disbelief, pointing to the river to the west of his home. Every year during the flood season, his family hated this river.
Xie Lin patted his shoulder in appreciation and said, "Yang Cheng, you are actually very smart. You were overshadowed by your elder sister before and didn't pay attention to things."
Did Stationmaster Xie mean to admit his guess? He still needed to discuss this matter.
"I need to discuss this with my family."
"Okay! You'd better tell me tomorrow at the latest so I can arrange the rest of the matter."
"OK."
After Xie Lin left, Yang Cheng called his wife over and first told her about the grievances between his family and the Zhou family. He described what had happened in those two years very objectively, and then recounted the conversation between Stationmaster Xie and himself.
"Which piece of land do you think is suitable for us to choose?"
After Yang Cheng's wife digested everything, she said, "How much money do you think the Zhou family will give? Your brother has been working away from home for a few years. Let's not talk about him for now. As long as we have his house, I think he should have no objection.
The key is your elder sister and younger sisters, what do they think about this money?"
Yang Cheng waved his hand, "Who dares to object? If anyone dares to object, I will send my father to that person's house. Want a share of the money? Sure, I will also be responsible for my father's retirement."
Seeing that her husband had a way to deal with the sisters-in-law, Yang Cheng's wife no longer worried. "I think the land behind Zhou's house is suitable. It's large and cheap. We will also build a building. The first floor will be used as a public space, the second floor will be all bedrooms, so that my younger brothers and sisters will have a place to stay when they come home, and the third floor will be all for our own family."
Yang Cheng thought it was a good idea and said, "Okay! Let's choose that one."
Yang Cheng's wife said, "You ride your bike to your sister's in-laws' house to inform them, and then everyone sit down and write an agreement to avoid any disputes later."
"Yes, wife, you are right. I will go right away."
Yang Jin, Yang Xiu and Yang Juan were all called back to the Yang family by Yang Cheng.
When the four sisters heard that the Zhou family might buy their old house at 8 times the price, they were all tempted.
Yang Cheng looked at his eldest sister with disappointment. His eldest sister had completely changed. The elder sister who used to set an example and raise her younger siblings with all her heart was gone.
"If you want to split the money, then write an agreement. You will all share in my father's retirement. If you want to enjoy your rights, you must fulfill your obligations."
When the four heard this, they all stopped arguing. Their father already had Alzheimer's disease and sometimes suffered from incontinence, making him too difficult to take care of.
