Not only did they acquire two shops in excellent locations, but they also gained a large resort with an attached mountain. It should be noted that Xiaotangshan in later years was a gathering place for the wealthy.
Seeing Lin Qing's happy expression, Gu Nanxun couldn't help but rub Lin Qing's head, and a smile appeared on his lips.
Upon seeing this, the man surnamed Jin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, feeling much more relaxed.
…………
After saying goodbye to the man surnamed Jin, as well as Wang, the clerk from the Housing Management Bureau, and Director Li, Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun drove away.
"This Comrade Lin is really rich, that's 60,000 yuan!"
Watching Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun's departing figures, Clerk Wang couldn't help but murmur.
"What? 60,000? Wasn't it 50,000? How come there's an extra 10,000?"
Director Li asked in confusion, "When Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun came to the Housing Management Bureau to trade in the commercial property, Director Li was not there."
"Director Li, you don't know, besides buying the house in Xiaotangshan, Comrade Lin and Comrade Gu also bought two shops, spending a total of 9,000 yuan. That adds up to quite a lot, doesn't it?"
Upon hearing Director Li's question, Clerk Wang said with a sigh, "It's true what they say, comparison is the thief of joy. I'm still crammed into a small house with my family, while they already own several properties."
Before Director Li could reply, Clerk Wang sighed and continued in a low voice, "Well, it's good that we're in a good time now. If it were before, their methods would have been reported long ago!"
"Thump..."
Director Li was still shocked by the 60,000 yuan when he heard what Clerk Wang said. He couldn't help but pick up the documents on the table and throw them at him.
"You brat, what are you saying? Do you think that money just appeared out of nowhere? To be able to have such a large sum of money and to have survived such a difficult time, it seems like you're doing quite well. You're no ordinary person. Watch your mouth from now on, or you'll offend someone without even realizing it."
"Yes...yes...Director Li is right. I was blinded by jealousy today. I will definitely be more careful in the future!"
After listening to Director Li's words, Clerk Wang couldn't help but think of the car Gu Nanxun drove and his conversation with Lin Qing. He remembered that Lin Qing said her husband was a retired soldier who then took the military academy entrance exam. What kind of position would allow the state to retain his position for military academy?
Don't ask him how he knew it was a military academy where the position was retained. Do you think anyone can just assign a car these days? Thinking of this, Clerk Wang couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead. It seems that if he has the chance to see Comrade Lin and Comrade Gu again in the future, he must show them more respect.
Indeed, experience counts! Thankfully, Director Li reminded me today; otherwise, my jealousy might have led me to offend those two again, which would have been disastrous. Luckily, I was in a state of shock all day, so I hope I didn't offend them...
In fact, what Clerk Wang didn't know was that Director Li was also in shock at the moment, amazed by Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun's extravagant spending. Although he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he could imagine just how good the house in Xiaotangshan must be from Clerk Wang's description.
Perhaps inspired by Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun's generosity, both Clerk Wang and Director Li simultaneously thought, "Should we also buy a house for our families so they can live more comfortably?"
What they didn't know was that, precisely because of their thoughts at that moment, years later they would be incredibly grateful that they had bought the house with those two people.
…………
At this moment, Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing returned home. Throughout the journey, Lin Qing held the house deed and smiled broadly.
"So happy?"
Seeing Lin Qing's happy expression, Gu Nanxun couldn't help but smile as well.
"Of course, this is such a great opportunity! I wouldn't even dare to dream of owning a house in Xiaotangshan!"
Lin Qing said happily.
"Sir, Madam, you're back!"
As soon as the two entered the courtyard, Gu Bei went up to greet them.
As the housekeeper, Gu Bei always lived in the back room of the front yard when there were no gatekeepers, so he was the first to see Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing.
The second to see Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun were Tiaotiao and Naonao. Gu Nanxun had taken some time to go back and brought Tiaotiao and Naonao over. Lin Qing had prepared a house for Tiaotiao and Naonao in the front yard. At this moment, Tiaotiao and Naonao were resting in the house. When they heard the noise, they looked up and saw Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing. So they ran over and kept rubbing against Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun.
"Alright, Jumpy and Noisy, you can go back and rest now!"
Lin Qing patted Tiao Tiao and Nao Nao's heads one by one and said with a smile.
After hearing Lin Qing's words, the sensible Tiaotiao and Naonao went back to their nest to rest.
"Where are my mom and the kids?!"
Lin Qing turned to Gu Bei and asked.
"The old lady is in the kitchen, and the young masters are playing in the back garden!"
Gu Bei replied with a smile.
Lin Qing nodded upon hearing this, and walked to the back with Gu Nanxun. Lin Qing went directly to the kitchen, while Gu Nanxun went to the back garden.
"Mom, Xixi, what are you doing? Do you need any help?"
As soon as Lin Qing entered the kitchen, she saw Dong Xiulan and Zhao Xi busy at the stove, so she asked with a smile.
Originally, Gu Bei was in charge of the kitchen, but Zhao Xi took over it as soon as she arrived. In her words, with her around, no one else could take the kitchen from her. So Dong Xiulan would go to the kitchen to help from time to time.
"No need for immediate return. You're back quite early today. I thought you wouldn't be back until tonight!"
Dong Xiulan quickly handed the chopped vegetables to Zhao Xi, then said with a smile.
"Hehe...Isn't it all done? I came back as soon as it was done. Where's my dad? Is he back yet?"
After hearing Dong Xiulan's words, Lin Qing said with a grin.
"No, your dad hasn't come back yet."
Dong Xiulan said.
"Then I'll have Nanxun go pick him up!"
Lin Qing glanced at her watch; it was almost 7 o'clock. She smiled and said...
"Why isn't Nanxun with your dad?"
Upon hearing this, Dong Xiulan stopped what she was doing and asked in confusion.
"No, he had something to do and left early today..."
"oh!"
Dong Xiulan didn't say anything, and Lin Qing left the kitchen and went to the back garden.
"Nanxun, Dad hasn't come back yet, let's go greet him!"
As soon as Lin Qing entered the back garden, she saw Gu Nanxun playing with the children, so she shouted loudly at Gu Nanxun.
"Sister, I'll go, you guys rest!"
