An aunt, as if she had received the best news, ran towards the group of women.
"Hey, I heard they're building new houses here, did you know?"
"I saw it. Big trucks are coming and going over there every day, and they've even fenced it off so people can't see it!"
“Let me tell you, my little nephew rented a house there, right? Now, they’ve actually given him priority to buy it. Once the house is built, he can go and pick a good one first.”
"Such a thing really happened? Is it true?"
"Of course it's true. I'm telling you all. Call everyone over. I have something important to tell you."
"What's up?"
Soon, quite a few people arrived.
The women's curiosity was piqued by her serious face.
Look at her, waiting for her to explain.
“It’s extremely difficult for our factory to get a quota for a large house now, because there are too few houses and too many people.”
"This isn't a secret, everyone knows it!"
"So guess what I overheard when I passed by the factory manager's office?"
"What?"
"Just say it! Stop beating around the bush."
"Speak quickly."
Everyone was extremely anxious, waiting for her to explain herself!
"That real estate developer approached our factory manager and gave him two layout plans..."
"They said they knew our factory had a housing shortage, and since they happened to be right next door, they could offer some of their quotas to our factory!"
The woman said excitedly.
What does this mean?
The crowd was puzzled.
"Oh my, you guys still don't understand? It means that if we manage to snag this spot, we can buy a big house and live in it, right?"
The aunties were a little taken aback.
"No, that's not cheap, is it?"
"I didn't hear this part clearly, but I heard the parts before that perfectly."
"If such a good thing really exists, I'd be willing to settle down immediately."
"Really...?"
“There are thirteen people in my family, and we’re all crammed into that tiny house. We can’t even stretch our legs out. I’ve wanted to move for a long time. If this ever happens, I’ll be the first to participate.”
Some of the older women understood immediately, their eyes lighting up with excitement, as their families were among the hardest hit.
She felt her house was too small; it was difficult to even turn around in it. She had long wanted to buy a bigger house.
"Keep a close eye on things, and let me know as soon as you hear anything!"
The auntie started having sweet dreams as she listened.
Whispers of secrets are more popular than public announcements.
Yang Ziye had no idea that such a small matter as priority had actually caused a huge argument behind the scenes.
They even started calling him.
"Xiao Ye! I just want to ask, were you building that house?"
"What's wrong?"
Yang Ziye was surprised that an elder would actually call him.
"I just wanted to ask if you still have any of those priority vouchers. Could you give me two?"
"Uncle Wang, since you've asked, I'll definitely save one for you, but that's all I have."
"You know, there are only a few houses in total. Some people have priority for the good houses, and some people will definitely not be happy about it."
Yang Ziye said earnestly to Uncle Wang.
Xia Lan said that coupons can certainly be given out, but people should know that these coupons are rare and not everyone can get them.
Yang Ziye receives different calls every day, asking him for priority access, but he keeps his mouth shut and won't give it to anyone except those he can't refuse.
After a few months, people paid more and more attention to the houses, watching the community slowly rise from the ground, layer by layer.
Just as everyone's attention was on the house, a man suddenly started yelling at the construction site.
"It's all a scam, just something to fool kids. What priority rights? Five hundred for one ticket? Is this robbery?"
"What makes this house so special? It's not worth the money at all!"
"You've all been fooled by them. They're not the only ones building houses. They've built houses in the city center next door too!"
"That's the city center, of course people would buy a house there. Who would buy a house in this remote, godforsaken place?"
The man's words sparked other thoughts in many people's minds, and Yang Ziye immediately launched an investigation upon receiving the news.
Sure enough, it was those men from Hong Kong who did this, using the Wu family to extract resources. The Wu family had poured all their money into building this house.
The house is already half-built, and now they're suddenly throwing mud at them.
When Yang Ziye found Xia Lan, Qin Ming had already received the news and returned.
"Girl, what do we do now?"
Qin Ming looked at Xia Lan. If this mudslinging wasn't explained, it was very likely that they would have steered it to their houses in the city center.
Xia Lan shook her head.
"Let them brag! They'd be better off if they just boasted themselves out of the sky..."
Xia Lan smiled at Qin Ming and Yang Ziye.
"You can still laugh? This is slapping us in the face."
Yang Ziye didn't understand what Xia Lan found funny, or why she could still laugh at a time like this.
"They originally had priority, but now they all want to return it to me."
Yang Ziye had never felt so frustrated.
"Then take them all back!"
Xia Lan chuckled softly.
"You really want them all?"
"certainly."
Xia Lan affirmed.
He glanced at Yang Ziye.
"Don't worry! You'll be able to get your revenge soon enough for the grievances you're suffering now."
Xia Lan checked the date; the government would soon be stepping in.
The houses in the city center are absolutely not going to be demolished.
"What kind of location is that? Demolish it? Those are all antiques."
Xia Lan smiled lightly at the two of them.
Qin Ming and Yang Ziye glanced at Xia Lan.
"Yang Ziye is definitely dead now!"
"Need I say more? They're just a bunch of rich fools. They dare to talk to us? Are they even worthy?"
"With just a few words, they turned all their advantages into ours..."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Several people, holding glasses of red wine, had already begun their celebration.
When will we wrap up filming?
A man asked with a smile.
"Once we collect the funds, we can wrap things up. No matter what they do, they won't be able to mess with us."
The leader laughed triumphantly and raised his glass.
"Cheers~"
Cheers!
The group exchanged smiles, their eyes gleaming with greed.
"Once we pull off this job, we can retire."
"Hahahaha..."
Several people laughed smugly, waiting for the property development to open so they could take their money first and then split it equally.
Then you can just pack up your food and leave without a care in the world.
Everyone has already woven their own beautiful dream.
Little did they know that their beautiful dream would be shattered three days later.
And he even got slapped back.
