Pei Zhiqiang swallowed the biscuit in his mouth and asked quickly: "Brother Changlong, how much money will the government pay for this?"
Liu Changlong's smile grew even brighter. "It should be several million, after all, your land is so big."
Pah, someone's chopsticks fell.
Wan Cuilan was the first to stand up, her eyes wide open: "What? Millions!"
"Yes, there should be several million."
"Oh my God, oh my God, did you hear that? Doesn't that mean our family is going to get rich?" Wan Cuilan's face had an expression that looked like she was both crying and laughing. She excitedly grabbed Zhou Wanhong's hand and spoke hurriedly. Zhou Wanhong hurriedly comforted her, even though she was also very excited.
Pei Tiantian blinked her grape eyes.
She was the calmest one in the Pei family. After all, this was a plot in a novel and she had known it for a long time.
The government ended up paying a full five million yuan in compensation for the demolition of that saline-alkali land.
It is now 2001, and five million is considered a huge sum of money. After all, the current housing price in Beijing is only 5,000 yuan per square meter.
The Pei family was dazzled by this unexpected surprise and were struggling to digest the news.
A week later, after the government announced the scope of the demolition, the families involved, and the corresponding compensation, the entire Huangsha Village was shocked.
Everyone in the village prepared to run to Pei's house, but when they opened the door, they found that there was no one in the house.
Only then did they learn that two days ago, the entire Pei family had returned to the city.
Those who came here excitedly returned disappointed.
After Liu Changlong told the Pei family the news, Pei Tiantian realized that people in the village would definitely come to ask questions, and some would even come to borrow money.
It would be better for them to leave here and go back to the city to take shelter.
So Pei Tiantian told Wang Ruizhen about her idea, and Wang Ruizhen immediately agreed.
The Pei family packed their bags and returned to the city the next day, perfectly avoiding the villagers' endless questioning.
With the help of Liu Changlong, the procedures were completed quickly. Around the beginning of April, the 5 million yuan in demolition compensation was received. The Pei family was a little overwhelmed and didn't even know what to do with the money. After all, they had never seen so much money before.
They were also very worried that others would know that they had so much money at home.
After Pei Tiantian knew what the Pei family was thinking, she felt helpless and amused.
It's 2001 now. There are already billionaires in the Guangzhou and Shenzhen stock markets. What does their 5 million mean?
So Pei Tiantian told the other members of the Pei family not to be afraid. If they felt uneasy about keeping the five million, they could just spend it.
"Tiantian, how do you say I should spend it?"
Pei Tiantian smiled and said, "Of course, we're going to buy a house. We'll use this money to buy a house!"
Pei Tiantian's words instantly awakened the Pei family.
Yes, buying houses. Can’t they just buy a few houses and spend the money?
The current housing price in Yu City has doubled compared to before, now reaching 1,500 per square meter.
At Pei Tiantian's urging, the Pei family bought a large villa of more than 200 square meters in Yunduan Garden and two Audi cars, spending about 1.5 million yuan.
Yunduan Garden is a project developed by Huaxing Real Estate Company. It will become a well-known wealthy area in the future. Although it is a bit far from No. 1 Middle School, it is near the suburbs and is a good place to buy for investment. It is also suitable for the Pei family to live in.
After buying the house in Yunduan Garden, Pei Tiantian also asked the Pei family to buy multiple houses in various developed areas of Yu City.
As a result, Pei Zhiwen and Zhou Wanhong had a house under their names, and Pei Zhiqiang and Wan Cuilan also had a house under their names, spending a total of 300,000 yuan.
Seeing that there was still so much money left in the card, Wang Ruizhen thought of buying a house for each child.
Zhou Wanhong and Wan Cuilan had no objections, but the two brothers of the Pei family did not quite agree with Wang Ruizhen's idea. If they bought so many houses at once, what would they do if the housing prices fell and they were left with nothing?
Besides, the oldest in the family, Pei Zihao and Pei Tianyu, are only sixteen years old now. It might not be a good idea to let them have a house at such a young age.
Pei Tiantian wholeheartedly agreed with Wang Ruizhen's approach. Anyway, there was no purchase restriction on houses now, so it was a great time to speculate in real estate. "Uncle, you are worrying too much. House prices will not fall, but will only go up. Three years ago, the house price in Mingshan Community was only more than 800 yuan per square meter, and now it has risen to 1,500 yuan per square meter. How can you say that buying a house is too much!"
Seeing Pei Tiantian's firm words, the Pei brothers were finally shaken.
Buy it, buy it!
Anyway, these five million are only available because of Tiantian, so let’s do whatever Tiantian says!
When Gu Rong learned that the Pei family was going to buy him a house, he was also a little stunned.
A house is not like other things. It costs at least 100,000 or 200,000 yuan.
How could he ask for it for nothing?
So Gu Rong’s first reaction was to tell Wang Ruizhen that he couldn’t have it.
Wang Ruizhen said to him, "Gu Rong, grandma plans to buy a house for each of the children in the family. Although it's a little early, it's better to have one than not. In grandma's heart, you are my grandson just like Zihao and Tianyu, and you are also a child of our Pei family. In short, if everyone has one, you must have one too."
Wang Ruizhen's tone was very firm.
The Pei family gave him a house worth one or two hundred thousand yuan without blinking an eye. This move still moved Gu Rong deeply, and he met Wang Ruizhen's kind eyes.
Gu Rong was stunned.
He used to think that he had never been blessed by God, but now he found out that he was wrong.
Soon, all the children bought houses in the same community in the city center.
Pei Zihao bought a house, Pei Tianyu bought a house, Pei Tiantian bought a house, and Gu Rong bought a house, spending a total of 800,000 yuan.
On the eve of graduation from junior high school, the four children of the Pei family all achieved their small goal of owning a house.
There are currently 2.4 million left out of the 5 million. The Pei family took out part of the money to expand their small supermarket and plan to transform it into a large supermarket.
Wang Ruizhen and Pei Zhiqiang were worried that they would not be able to handle the workload in the future, so they planned to recruit a few more people from the market.
Originally, Wan Cuilan and Zhou Wanhong were planning to resign and come back to help take care of the supermarket business, but Wang Ruizhen asked them not to resign.
Zhou Wanhong and Wan Cuilan are both veterans of Xie Jiagui's restaurant. Xie Jiagui has opened many branches across the country over the years, including Yushi. Zhou Wanhong and Wan Cuilan are now managers at the Yushi branch, and their annual income is not bad. It would be a pity if they gave up this job just like that.
