A 50-year-old man is reborn and becomes a complete slacker, leaving his scumbag children completely

Yan Yuming didn't speak. He crossed his hands and placed them in front of his forehead, his eyes fixed on the red landline phone in front of him.

He believed that his superiors would soon call him and give him relevant instructions.

A few minutes later, the phone rang.

Yan Yuming answered the phone, first complaining for a while, then agreeing repeatedly.

Finally, he hung up the phone, looked at Li Ruochun, sighed helplessly, and said:

“The archaeological team from above has already come and studied it. They said that the ancient tombs here cover a very large area. Not only will your land be lost, but even the West Bus Station will be affected.”

"So it's not just a matter of work stoppage for you anymore, it's a matter of it being completely unusable."

Upon hearing this, Li Ruochun staggered back several steps, exclaiming, "How could this be? How could this be?"

He slumped into his seat, his eyes vacant, muttering to himself.

"Mr. Li, there's nothing we can do about it. None of us wanted this to happen, but since it has, we still have to deal with it seriously."

Yan Yuming thought for a moment and said, "Now we have two options for you. The first is that you choose another piece of land of about the same size, and I will switch it for you."

"There is another way, which is to compensate you for the land at the original price. Since there are no buildings on your land, it is truly a case of land expropriation, and the compensation standard for land expropriation is currently lower than your purchase price."

"As you know, the price you paid for this land was already a bit high. But I don't want you to feel bad, so I will refund you the money you paid for the land, based on the original purchase price."

Yan Yuming's words were very tactful, but Li Ruochun immediately became agitated after hearing them.

Li Ruochun, who had been slumped in her seat, suddenly stood up.

"what?!"

Li Ruochun's voice rose several octaves due to her excitement.

At this point, Li Ruochun had lost his usual elegant demeanor and nonchalant attitude.

"What's wrong?" Yan Yuming was startled by Li Ruochun, and his expression turned somewhat grim.

"Ahem." Li Ruochun realized that he had lost his composure and coughed awkwardly. He calmed down and said, "Mayor Yan, can you please understand me? I gave Huang Renfa a 20% premium, and I also gave compensation to those farmers, as well as money for the construction team I hired."

"This money represents my net loss! If you don't help me share some of it, I'll be losing a huge amount of money for nothing!"

Li Ruochun's hands trembled slightly as he spoke. He had come to Hangzhou this time hoping to make a fortune from this land, but instead of making money, he ended up losing a large sum of money.

He also thought of Huang Renfa, who did nothing but give him the land, thus avoiding risks and earning 20% ​​of the profits.

In the end, Huang Renfa, whom he had once ridiculed, became the biggest winner, while he himself became a huge joke.

"Mr. Li, you've built such a large business, you must know our difficulties. We can't possibly subsidize you with extra money. We can only say that next time you see a piece of land in Hangzhou that you're interested in, I'll try my best to give you a lower price, a preferential price."

"Besides, when it comes to investing, there's no such thing as 100% profit. There's bound to be some fluctuation. We need to broaden our horizons. As long as we're in Hangzhou, there's always some opportunity."

Yan Yuming spoke with a forced smile. He seemed to be telling Li Ruochun that there would be opportunities for future cooperation, but in reality, he was warning Li Ruochun whether he still wanted to work in Hangzhou.

Li Ruochun had no choice, after all, he had really brought this trouble upon himself. He was the one who found this land, and he had paid all the money voluntarily.

To be honest, Li Ruochun is indeed impeccable.

Li Ruochun didn't even know how she got back from Yan Yuming's office that day.

Disappointment, frustration, and regret filled Li Ruochun's mind, making her feel that even the sun was cold today.

It's just different from Li Ruochun's side.

When Huang Renfa got home, he was all smiles.

After he told his family about what had happened that day, Huang Renfa's wife suggested that he immediately go to see Hu Dahai to express his gratitude.

"Yes, yes, I'll go find Hu Dahai right now!" Huang Renfa suddenly realized.

He immediately got in the car, bought a lot of good things, and headed towards the Qunyi Brigade where Hu Dahai was located.

Meanwhile, in the Qunyi Brigade...

Hu Dahai had just returned from delivering fish to the textile factory and the food factory.

He saw two people waiting for him at his doorstep, and a large truck was parked in front of his house.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the two people were none other than Hu Dahai's sister, Hu Xiawen, and her son, Ding Xin.

Hu Dahai frowned.

Hu Dahai knew his younger sister better than anyone else.

This Hu Xiawen is quite snobbish and an extreme egoist. When she got married, in order to be worthy of her husband who had a local household registration, she kept asking her family for this and that.

After getting married, she would take every opportunity to come back and show off. However, she would never show up when the family needed money. For example, when Hu Dahai and Hu Xiawen's parents passed away, Hu Xiawen didn't even come to the funeral, for fear of making her pay for it.

Hu Dahai knew with his toes that if she came to see him now, it couldn't be anything good. She was either showing off or trying to get something out of him.

Sure enough, as soon as Hu Dahai got closer, he heard Hu Xiawen bragging to the villagers nearby.

"Our Ding Xin is quite capable. He bought his own big truck a long time ago and now he drives it to deliver goods to those large state-owned factories!"

"Every time I bring back a shipment, I make a fortune."

The villagers nearby listened with envy, because in their minds, these days, anyone who owns a large truck or lorry for transportation is already considered a superior person.

In normal times, if you own your own hand tractor, you're someone who can hold your head high in the brigade.

Many of them had never seen such a large truck in their lives.

So many villagers touched the truck as if it were a precious treasure, while saying enviously:

"Xia Wen, you're so lucky! You'll be able to enjoy life from now on. People in the transportation business are making a killing these days."

“That’s right. Back when you were still in the brigade, we thought you two were promising. Now it seems that you two siblings are both promising people.”

"Hu Dahai is still more capable than Xia Wen. I doubt Hu Dahai can afford this big truck."

"makes sense."

Hu Xiawen thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.

But before they could finish speaking, Hu Dahai had already arrived.

"Dahai, would you like to ride in the big truck your nephew bought?"

Some villagers joked with a smile.

Hu Dahai ignored everyone's teasing and went straight home.

Hu Xiawen and Ding Xin were immediately taken aback when they saw Hu Dahai like this.

Is this... is this still the Hu Dahai they know?

In the past, whenever Hu Dahai saw them, he would immediately run over to them, and then treat them to warm greetings and delicious food and drinks.

Hu Dahai had always hoped that his children could receive help from Hu Xiawen so that they could develop their careers in the city. In particular, he had been hoping that Hu Xiawen could introduce Hu Wangfei to a potential partner from the city.

But why does Hu Dahai act like he's seeing strangers when he sees them now?
