Reborn in 85: Starting with a family split and becoming the richest man, the ungrateful wretch regre

The apartment is indeed very bright and airy. The moment you open the door, sunlight floods in. The balcony is large and well-ventilated.

Cheng Lin walked to the balcony and looked out: "This building only has seven floors in total, and the third floor has really good lighting."

"I'll buy a bigger one when I have the money!"

Lu Yang laughed and said, "We'll build our own villa when we have the money."

Cheng Lin's eyes lit up: "That's right, we'll build them side by side then."

They went around to each room, and then went to see Cheng Lin's 83-square-meter apartment.

Cheng Lin asked the salesperson directly, "How much is this one?"

The salesperson said with a smile, "Our apartments are 600 yuan per square meter, plus a handling fee of 51,000 yuan."

"House prices are constantly rising, so if you want to buy a house, you'd better do it as soon as possible."

Lu Yang calculated for a moment and said, "How much is 106 square meters plus handling fees?"

The salesperson's eyes narrowed with a smile: "A total of sixty-four thousand five."

Cheng Lin nodded: "I'll take this set. Let's go sign the contract."

Lu Yang nodded and said, "Let's sign the contract."

After the three of them went downstairs, the two of them readily signed the purchase contract, paid the deposit, and agreed to go to the real estate bureau early the next morning to complete the formalities.

Just as the two were about to leave the residential area, they heard a woman's shrill voice: "Your dilapidated houses are so expensive, six hundred per square meter, what idiot would buy them?"

The salesperson sneered, "If you can't afford it, don't complain. I just closed two deals, one for 10,000 and one for 50,000. If it's over 60,000, people will pay in full!"

Lu Qing immediately lost face and snorted coldly, saying, "Who knows if the money came from an honest source!"

Cheng Lin rolled his eyes, pulled Lu Yang and walked out from the other side, not wanting to run into this idiot.

When he left the sales office, his steps were unsteady.

Before they had gone far, the salesperson chased after them, saying, "Please wait a moment, you two."

Cheng Lin and Lu Yang stopped in their tracks, and the salesperson handed each of them a business card.

"My contact information is here. If you two are planning to buy a house in the future, please feel free to contact me."

"I guarantee I'll find you the most suitable accommodations, and they'll all be at discounted prices."

After the two took the business cards, Cheng Lin waved his hand and said, "Okay, got it."

The sales staff smiled and watched them walk away before returning to work.

Cheng Lin couldn't help but burst into laughter, revealing his back teeth: "Previously, real estate saleswomen wouldn't even bother with me, but now they're chasing after me to give me their business cards!"

Looking at him like this, Lu Yang couldn't help but find it amusing: "If you bought her five houses, she would be happy to be your girlfriend."

Cheng Lin laughed even more maniacally. Lu Yang couldn't bear to watch anymore, so he patted the guy on the shoulder and said, "Shall we go to the night market to sell goods, or go back and rest?"

Without even thinking, Cheng Lin said, "Selling goods! Brother Lu, I'll never complain about being tired again."

"It feels so good to spend money like water!"

Lu Yang reminded him, "You have to balance work and rest. If you spend the first thirty years working hard to make money and then spend the next thirty years working yourself to the bone for that money, then it's meaningless."

"Let's take less stock, sell it all in an hour or two and then head back!"

Cheng Lin nodded, humming "Tomorrow Will Be Better" as he drove, and Lu Yang unconsciously joined in the singing.

Lu Yang's good mood vanished instantly when he arrived at the entrance of the two-story house he had just bought.

"Holy crap, who the hell is so despicable!"

Cheng Lin was so angry that he jumped out of the car and stood at the door cursing loudly.

Lu Yang was a step behind him. Looking at the swill that had been splashed on the door, anger welled up in his heart as well.

But he quickly calmed down; Lu Yao and Lu Qing wouldn't find this place so soon.

The only person who would do such a thing is Qi Kang's uncle.

Lu Yang first went to a nearby convenience store to call the police, explained the situation, and then returned to wait for the police to arrive.

Cheng Lin calmed down a bit, put his hands on his hips, and said, "That old bastard is disgusting!"

Lu Yang said indifferently, "It's too cold outside, let's wait in the car."

After waiting for fifteen minutes, a police car drove up from a distance and stopped next to the truck.

Lu Yang immediately jumped out of the car and said politely, "Hello, gentlemen. I was the one who reported the case just now."

The leader was an older police officer in his fifties. He glanced at Lu Yang and asked, "What's your relationship with Tan Juan?"

Lu Yang vaguely guessed that Tan Juan must have called the police when Qi Kang's uncle tried to take advantage of the family's poverty.

But Tan Juan was eventually forced to sell her house and leave for another place, which shows that the police did not help her.

Lu Yang's expression changed slightly, but he said calmly, "She sold the house to me and moved away."

The old policeman's expression was a bit strange. He paused for a moment and said, "You're definitely not a local. You don't know anything about his family."

"Qi Yong, Tan Juan's brother-in-law, is a scoundrel who has been eyeing her house. Qi Yong will make sure you never have a moment's peace!"

Lu Yang took out a cigarette and handed it to the old policeman, saying, "He poured swill on my front door. This is disrupting public order and damaging other people's property."

"According to the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, he should be criminally detained and fined. Shouldn't you be arresting him now?"

The old policeman glanced at Lu Yang, somewhat surprised. He had a gut feeling that Lu Yang was a cultured person.

Moreover, they will present their arguments logically and based on evidence, and according to the law, this is indeed the proper course of action.

The old man rubbed his eyes and said, "Let's investigate first. If it's confirmed that he did it, we'll do what we should."

Lu Yang politely handed half a pack of cigarettes to the old man and said, "Then I'll trouble you."

The older policeman went to the door to check, not minding the stench, and even called over the younger policeman next to him with a distorted expression to take a picture.

After the two police officers drove away, Cheng Lin and Lu Yang cleared the door together before moving a lot of goods to their stall.

"Don't take it to heart. This penniless scoundrel never thinks about doing anything right and only wants to take advantage of others. He'll be finished sooner or later."

As Lu Yang drove, he looked at Cheng Lin, whose face was gloomy, and couldn't help but offer words of comfort.

Cheng Lin looked at Lu Yang strangely: "Why aren't you angry at all? If this were my house, I'd be furious!"

Lu Yang sped up and said, "The thought of earning several thousand yuan by setting up a stall later makes me not angry at all."

Cheng Lin scratched his head and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

The two of them stomped their feet and rubbed their hands together while selling clothes at the night market for two hours before hurrying back.

Lu Yang lit the stove, and Cheng Lin boiled water to cook noodles next to him.

By the time the house warmed up, the noodles were cooked, and the two of them ate a bowl of noodles to warm up.

In this season when water freezes instantly, the two of them crawled into bed with only their heads sticking out and fell asleep.

The next morning, the two went with the saleswoman to complete the property transfer procedures, and only set up their stall when it was almost dark.

Lu Qing hadn't started her holiday yet and still had to attend classes, so Lu Yao came to the square alone to find Lu Yang.

"You went to Wanhua Jincheng residential area yesterday?" Lu Yao asked coldly.

Lu Yang was busy serving customers. After everything was sold out, he collected the last bit of money, grimacing as he rubbed his back.
