The wetland park in Qixiang City has welcomed a large number of waterbirds. Swans on the lake, along with the distant mountains and nearby water, create a beautiful scene.

As evening falls, swans dance in the sunset, a breathtaking sight.

The setting sun streamed through the window, casting a warm, golden glow on the kitchen tiles.

Li Fang stood by the pool, holding fresh vegetables in her hands, rinsing them under the running water.

Xu Hongzhi came in and brought out the dishes: "A-Jing is back."

"Sizzle!" Li Fang put the vegetables into the pot: "That brat finally decided to come back. He's been out gallivanting all day!"

Faced with his wife's complaints, Xu Hongzhi didn't respond, but just smiled, put the dishes on the dining table, and called to Xu Tai in the living room, "Atai, go and call Grandpa and Grandma for dinner."

"Okay!" Xu Tai put down the TV remote and went to his grandparents' room.

Before long, Li Fang had also finished stir-frying the vegetables.

"Mom, dinner is delicious tonight!" Xu Jing walked over and looked at the dishes on the table, flattering his mother: "Thank you for your hard work, Mom!" He then ran behind Li Fang and massaged her shoulders.

"Hmph, all you know is how to flatter." Li Fang slapped his hand away, looking impatient, but the smile in her eyes was undeniable; she was clearly pleased with her youngest son's behavior.

"Did A-Jing go to your great-aunt's house to play with Qingxu today?" Grandma Xu asked as she sat down with Grandpa Xu, looking at her grandson whom she hadn't seen all day.

"Yes, I went to the real estate agency to look at houses with Lao Yang." Xu Jing and Xu Tai served rice to their grandparents, and Xu Jing handed the full bowl of rice to Grandma Xu as he spoke.

"Qingxu wants to buy a house?" Grandma Xu was a little surprised.

"Does Qingxu want to buy it or Aheng want to buy it?" Xu Hongzhi asked after hearing this.

"It's Old Yang, from our old neighborhood. Didn't he, Yingying, and Yanyan get a huge amount of New Year's money from our cousin? Our cousin wants them to spend it all." Xu Jing finished speaking and started eating heartily.

"He took the money to buy a house? But he couldn't have bought one in an old neighborhood, the houses there aren't worth much," Li Fang said while picking up some food.

"Yeah, what are you thinking? You haven't bought it yet, have you?" Xu Tai rarely spoke up, afraid that the children might misbehave without knowing any better.

"I can't buy it!" Xu Jing mumbled, his mouth full of food.

"You really bought it?" Xu Hongzhi was surprised. He put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Jing seriously.

"Buy, woo..." Xu Jing quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "We bought it, but we didn't buy it randomly. Qingxu heard that Cousin Heng was going to buy land to build a factory, including the area in our old neighborhood, so he invested in advance!"

"You mean, when will the old neighborhoods be demolished?" Xu Tai put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Jing with a hesitant expression.

"Yeah, doesn't Qingxu have some money on hand? After buying the house, he can get a lot of compensation or several resettlement houses after the demolition. He's making a fortune!" Xu Jing said with envy.

The Xu family members looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Is this news reliable?" Xu Tai asked doubtfully.

You have to understand that their old neighborhood is not a large area, but it is densely populated and located in a remote area. Unless a large ancient tomb is discovered underground, no one would be willing to go there to carry out demolition work that is not worth the effort.

"Of course! Qingxu has already given all the money. He bought two houses today, and he's going to go see them tomorrow! I'll go with him then," Xu Jing said, seemingly oblivious to the situation.

Sitting next to him, Li Fang finally couldn't hold back and slapped him hard on the back of the head: "Such big news, didn't you even think about telling your family?"

Xu Jing was completely bewildered after being hit: "What's there to say? Besides, don't you all know now?"

He complained tearfully, "Mom, you hit me so hard!"

"Serves you right!" Li Fang ignored him.

“Now that it’s confirmed that the old neighborhood can be demolished, Mom and Dad, let’s buy two apartments! Not many people know about it yet, so the prices there are still quite cheap.” Xu Tai was very tempted.

"Brother, we already have two houses, why would we buy another one?" Xu Jing said, expressing his incomprehension.

"Qingxu has one too, doesn't he? He bought one too," Xu Tai said speechlessly.

"Qingxu is investing!" In Xu Jing's mind, Yang Qingxu was only buying a house because his cousin asked him to. His family didn't have any money, so why would they buy a house?

The family stopped paying attention to him and started discussing the demolition of the old neighborhood.

"Let's ask Ah Heng after dinner and see what he says. Didn't Ah Jing say that he's the one who wants to build the factory?" Grandma Xu said definitively.

When the Xu family rang the Yu family's doorbell, the Yu family had just finished dinner.

"Sister, I'm sorry to bother you." Grandma Xu walked into the house with a smile and went straight to Grandma Yu.

"Oh, come on in, come on in, come sit down." Grandma Yu happily took her sister's hand and waved warmly to the Xu family.

"Why did you all come today? Is there something you need?" Grandma Yu asked, pulling Grandma Xu down to sit.

Yang Qingxu and his two siblings were still students. After finishing their meal, they went upstairs to do their homework.

Dong Senyao and Gao Zhiyuan stayed at a hotel with the people from Lingjiu Technology.

Now, only Grandma Yu Heng and Uncle Yu and his wife are left in the living room.

"We have something to ask Aheng." After saying that, Grandma Xu looked at Yu Heng: "Today Ajing said that you're going to demolish our old neighborhood? We came over to ask."

Thinking about what Yang Qingxu had done today, Yu Heng roughly knew what was going on: "There is indeed such a plan, but the old residential areas will definitely be demolished."

Hearing Yu Heng's affirmation, the Xu family members were quite excited.

"Well, well, it's like this, Ah Heng, we're planning to buy two more apartments in the old neighborhood now. Do you think this... will it interfere with your plans?" Xu Hongzhi asked Yu Heng, rubbing his hands together with a mix of excitement and embarrassment.

Yu Heng was a little surprised: "Of course not, our demolition compensation is based on the original property certificate, so it's the same no matter who bought it."

"Cousins, you can buy a few more sets. The higher-ups will probably issue a notice in two or three months." It was Yu Heng who hadn't expected to inform the Xu family about this.

After all, for him now, a house worth four or five hundred thousand is nothing to worry about.

Even Dong Senyao, who always complains about being poor in front of him, has a high salary. Moreover, he owns 5% of Lingjiu Technology's shares. Once the company's products are launched, his shares will bring him so much dividends that he won't know what to do with them.

So he only mentioned it briefly in front of Yang Qingxu and the others because he knew they needed to spend money to learn how to invest.

Wen Zhao, who was serving tea to the guests, was also surprised to hear their conversation, as she also owned a house in the old neighborhood.

She put the empty tray down, walked over to Yu Heng, and asked somewhat cautiously, "Heng, what do you think about me having Wen He buy another apartment in the neighborhood?"

Yu Heng smiled somewhat helplessly; this was a rather awkward question…

"Auntie, cousin, buy as much as you can. Don't worry, it will definitely be demolished within six months. If you buy a lot, then I'll keep the profits within the family."

The Xu family and Wen Zhao were instantly encouraged; demolition compensation was the biggest way for ordinary people to get rich.

They can get advance notice and buy several houses at low prices, and then make several times their initial investment when the properties are demolished!

The atmosphere immediately became lively as the two families excitedly gathered together to discuss buying a house.

Yu Heng sat to one side, watching the scene with a smile.

Indeed, no matter how much someone else gives you, it's not as satisfying as earning it yourself. Although the developer is Yu Heng, they paid for the house themselves, and that feels completely different.

Xu Jing walked over to Yu Heng, feeling out of place in the atmosphere, and asked Yu Heng with some confusion, "Cousin, isn't this just a matter of money going from one pocket to another?"

"Go upstairs and play with Qingxu!" Yu Heng patted his head. This silly kid!
