Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

"Have all the land been taken down? It's pretty fast!" Li Weidong asked and answered himself as if nothing had happened.

Gao Anbang looked as if this was indeed the case, and said with a smile: "I knew it was related to you, otherwise who would use more than 70 acres of land to build a few villas!"

Then Gao Anbang took a cup of water and drank a cup of tea, and continued to sigh: "I have visited the castles where nobles live in Europe, and your castle is larger than most of their castles. This is life!"

Gao Anbang has also traveled abroad, especially to some places in Europe. He is engaged in architecture, so he is naturally interested in those European buildings and has visited many medieval castles.

"What villa, castle, and seventy acres of land?" Li Chengwen, who had been sitting next to him silently until he heard this, finally showed curiosity and asked.

The discussion between my son and son-in-law about work just now was a business matter, and he didn't understand those things, so it was hard for him to interrupt.

Later, he talked about his second uncle's nephew. Although it was a private matter, it was the matter of his wife's family, and he was too lazy to answer. Besides, he was an elder and did not want to get involved in the affairs of the younger generation.

Moreover, my son and son-in-law are not ordinary people, so there is no need for him to give instructions on how to handle these things. He can just not cause trouble, and there is no need for him to worry about it.

But now that his son wanted to use more than 70 acres of land to build a villa and a castle, he became interested because it was directly related to him and he would live with his son in the future.

People cannot accept old age. In the past few years, I have gotten older and enjoyed more blessings, but my body has become a lot weaker. In the past, no matter how tiring I was at work, my strength would come back after sleeping.

Since the two sons got married and became prosperous, the old couple took care of the children and did less strenuous work. Now they occasionally do some strenuous work in their hometown, but their waists and backs are sore. They work harder and they are sweating.

Li Chengwen knew that without two or three months of adaptation, he would never regain his original strength. This made him depressed for a while, but the actual conditions no longer allowed him to go back to do these jobs. He wanted to do something more

There is no chance for physical work.

If there are seventy or eighty acres of land, in addition to building a villa, there will definitely be a large area of ​​land. After all, Li Weidong's villa on Hong Kong Island only covers an area of ​​a few acres, and there is a large area of ​​land for the couple to mess around.

So Li Chengwen looked at him with hope, a little bit confident that the old couple would not be lonely.

"There are more than 70 acres of land, it's just a hillside!" Li Weidong understood what his father meant and explained.

On his way back from Hong Kong Island last time, several people persuaded Li Weidong to move. Although Li Weidong refused to move to the villa built by Chen Gu at that time, he also had the idea of ​​moving.

But after I came back, things came one after another, too many things piled up, and I was very busy, so this idea has been suppressed in the back of my mind.

One day, Li Weidong suddenly had a whim, and the idea came to him again, so he asked Ding Yuan to drive to the villa in the southern mountainous area to have a look.

Although Li Weidong did not like the community with 108 high-end villas built by Chen Gu, he was very satisfied with the hillside next to it.

We even hiked to the top of the mountain and conducted an on-the-spot inspection of this hillside, and found that the location, slope, and view were perfect.

As long as a road is built up the mountain and a villa is built in this place, it would be ideal. Li Weidong couldn't let go of this idea and immediately decided to give it a try.

Fortunately, at this time, the country has not yet begun to restrict villas or golf projects that cover a relatively large area, and does not pay much attention to ecology, making this possible.

Li Weidong had the idea, so he naturally had subordinates to take care of this matter. According to the normal land acquisition procedures, a company would be needed to operate it.

Anxia Real Estate is a real estate company under the name of Li Weidong, so it is naturally the first choice, and there is a villa area they built next to it, so they have full experience and capabilities.

It took just over two weeks for the land to be obtained. This speed and efficiency were indeed beyond Li Weidong's expectations.

Of course, when Anxia Real Estate was handling this matter, it would definitely be under the banner of Li Weidong, otherwise things would not have gone so smoothly.

Moreover, the province and the city were afraid that Li Weidong would no longer be in Qizhou, so they naturally met Li Weidong's requirements as quickly as possible, not to mention that it was nothing too excessive, just normal business operations, and no one was responsible.

After all, Li Weidong came from later generations, and he still had the idea of ​​​​green waters and green mountains, mountains of gold and silver, so according to his original idea, he should try to maintain the original appearance of the mountain and integrate the buildings and the mountain as much as possible to achieve the goal of human and nature.

of harmonious symbiosis.

Under this idea, the smaller the area of ​​the villa, the better, but for the sake of safety, the larger the area of ​​the plot, the better, and a safe boundary distance can be left.

Therefore, in the commercial planning, the entire project is composed of several villas forming a building complex, similar to a European castle.

This can also meet the accommodation needs of staff such as nannies and security guards, and health doctors must also be equipped to live in such a place.

As for the area outside the villa, it naturally belongs to the green area. According to Li Weidong's request, what is the best or what is the best. Things like opening up wasteland and farming are not in his consideration at all, but he ignores the hobbies of his parents.

.

"What's wrong with the hillside? The land in the south mountain of our village was not reclaimed a few years ago!" Li Chengwen said nonchalantly. Although he was not willing to serve the land, he loved the land so deeply that he felt guilty without it.

This is all a matter for the future, and it is obviously too early to discuss it now. Li Weidong said openly: "No problem, after the construction is completed, you can move over and do whatever you want!"

Of course, if at that time, Li Chengwen and Shen Yueying really insisted on getting some land to grow some fruits and vegetables, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Gao Anbang shook his head listening to the conversation between Li Weidong and his father-in-law. He just heard Liu Jianguo say that although this land is in the suburbs, the price per acre is not lower than that in the urban area. If other costs are taken into account, it is still

Be high.

If it were used to grow food, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to recoup the cost in a hundred years, but as a pastime, the cost is not high no matter how high it is.

"That's a good relationship. Let Xiao Ding take me over tomorrow to take a look and make some plans!" Li Chengwen was very happy and said in an imposing manner while holding a tea cup.

The movement of drinking tea was too big. Li Chengwen drank all the tea leaves in his mouth, then spat the tea leaves into the cup skillfully, and then said: "The house you have now is pretty good, but it's a bit small!"

When Gao Anbang heard this, he almost spat out the tea he just drank. His father-in-law's demands were getting higher and higher.

He still remembered that his father-in-law was very satisfied with this house a few years ago. It was much more comfortable than living in a building. It was warm in winter and cool in summer, and it was grounded. It also had a yard, water, soil and trees, and the feng shui was good.

Now I'm starting to dislike being small again, and people's desires have indeed increased.

Thinking about it, it's not the same for him. When he first got married, he was very satisfied just thinking about building three tile-roofed houses in the countryside, where he would have food and drink, and his wife and children would have a warm bed.

Now more than ten years have passed, and I live in a big house in the city, drive a car in and out, and have a seven-digit savings. I could never imagine such a life before.

But now I am still not satisfied. I am thinking that the company will grow bigger and bigger, the money will be earned more and more, and the cars will become more advanced. In short, there will never be an end on this road.

Li Weidong naturally ignored his father's death. From time to time, if Gao Anbang and Li Weidong did not mention this matter, and if others said that the yard was small, Li Chengwen would definitely not agree.

Li Weidong dissuaded: "It's just a small hillside with nothing but trees and grass. It's not as beautiful as the back hill of our hometown. Besides, there are no roads being built now. They are all small roads. I will sweat all over the place every time I go up there. It will take a while."

, I’ll let you take a look after the design institute’s renderings come out!”

Li Chengwen said disdainfully: "What are you afraid of when you climb a mountain? In my hometown, I used to go up the mountain to pick pepper on hot days. My clothes were soaked and I didn't even come here. You young people have never experienced hardship!"

Gao Anbang and Li Weidong looked at each other, and they both saw the meaning in each other's eyes. Li Chengwen was a professional carpenter and part-time bricklayer. He was a craftsman. Even if he endured hardship, it was not the hardship of the field.

Li Chengwen didn't notice the eyes of the two brothers, and kept talking about his old almanac, which eventually attracted several children to listen to the story.

"I think back then, when I was fourteen or fifteen years old, I started to learn crafts from my master. It happened to coincide with the three-year disaster. All the leaves of the elm money trees on the mountain were eaten up, and many of the trees were knocked down!"

"My master is greedy. These are old trees, perfect for making furniture, but they belong to the government. He doesn't dare to move them during the day, so he secretly lifts them down from the mountain at night!"

"We didn't have enough to eat at that time, and we didn't have much strength, but we still had to bite the bullet and lift the two- to three-hundred-jin bar in three steps and a rest, and two steps and a pause!"

"Later, the master made a lot of tables, chairs and benches with the scraps from the old elm trees, and secretly exchanged some grain for it. Then I had a few full meals. I ate seven of those big steamed buns in one meal!"

When Li Chengwen said this, his eyes were full of admiration for his master. In that era, it was such a luxury to have a full meal, but his master relied on his skills to let him have a few full meals.

"Grandpa, it's wrong to steal things!" When Li Chengwen was lamenting, Li Rui next to him said crisply.

The people next to me all laughed!

Li Chengwen corrected him: "That's not considered stealing. Later, those trees that were not lifted down were burned by the production team. Now that I think about it, that is a waste!"

"Okay, it's been eight hundred years and it's not over yet. Look at what time it is and go to bed quickly!" Shen Yueying, who was sitting in the restaurant next door chatting with her daughter, pointed to the clock on the wall and said.

"Why is it endless? If it weren't for that bag of sorghum noodles, you wouldn't have the good life you have today!" Li Chengwen said angrily.

"I didn't have a good life following you. The good life I have today is only given by my daughter and son!" Shen Yueying's words clearly showed a lack of confidence. This was different from the past.

The brothers and sisters looked at each other and understood the meaning behind the words. They looked at Shen Yueying and Li Chengwen gossiping. Is there another story in this?

This kind of story can be heard a lot in dramas. The exchange of a steamed bun, a bag of dried sweet potatoes, and a bag of millet for a wife was not uncommon in the era of fleeing famine.

But the Li Weidong brothers and sisters have never heard that their mother was bought back by their biological father with a bag of sorghum noodles. Besides, his grandfather's family was not that difficult.

Li Weihong asked gossiping: "There seems to be a story here?"

"What's the story? Go to bed quickly. Everything will be fine tomorrow!" Shen Yueying didn't have a good temper towards Li Weihong.

"That's right, we don't go to work, we will be at home with you tomorrow!" Li Weihong said coquettishly.

"I still want you to accompany me. If you don't make me angry in front of me, I will be satisfied!" Shen Yueying said.

"Okay, I'll leave tomorrow. I won't make you angry if I don't stay at home!" Li Wei rolled his eyes and said immediately.

"Where do you want to go? If you're not a good teacher, why are you running around with nothing to do?" Shen Yueying immediately asked, her attitude changing so quickly that it was almost unprepared.

"I'm going on a trip. I asked you to go, but you won't go. Why don't I go by myself?" Li Weihong answered simply.

It has always been Li Weihong's wish to travel and see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, but there are too many things to do and he has been putting them off again and again, and he has never been able to make the trip.

Now the school has suspended her from classes and asked her to only do scientific research projects in the future. Li Weihong was unwilling, so she tactfully raised objections and even resigned.

But the school told her to study it further and asked her to think about it again. Although the words were euphemistic, the meaning was also very firm.

The school's research results haven't come out yet. Since I asked her to think about it, she might as well think about it for a few more days, travel, relax, and realize her dream.

At that time, I didn't know if my brain was out of control. When I mentioned this matter to my parents, I casually told Shen Yueying that I had a disagreement with the school and even had the determination to resign.

Shen Yueying immediately aroused strong opposition and even vetoed her going on a trip, let alone Li Weidong's proposal to take his parents on a trip.

Now that Li Weihong has brought up the old matter again, the two naturally have another argument, and this time they have Li Weihua as a helper.

In fact, Li Weihua knew about this matter right away. In her opinion, Li Weihong was a liar. She also called and lectured, but this time she criticized him in person.

"Wei Hong, you said you are already a grown-up, so why can't you settle down? What's wrong with being a university teacher? Look at Wei Ying, who is still a primary school teacher. Isn't she doing a pretty good job?" Li Weihua said sincerely. said.

"Sister, I didn't say I didn't want to be a teacher. I'm considering it now. Look, my brother-in-law is drunk and stunned. Let him go back to bed quickly. Let's talk about it tomorrow!" Li Weihong said in a loud voice.

Sure enough, Li Weihua's eyes turned to Gao Anbang. Gao Anbang's face was red and he had indeed drank a lot, but he was not stunned. Li Weihong was obviously exaggerating, and his intention was self-evident.
