Chapter 377: 377 Is Not Ideal
Chapter 377
Even her parents felt annoyed when disciplining her, let alone Yun Yan who was just an outsider they barely knew and wasn't yet mature.
Like the last time she had made plans to go to grandma's house, she had also pulled on her arm to stop her from going. There were many other instances like this where she always tried to interfere with her decisions, hoping that she would act according to her thoughts.
It was really strange. She had her own freedom, so why did she have to listen to her?
If it was really an ordinary child, perhaps she would have truly been influenced by Yun Yan.
But Pei Wanqing had also grown up pampered and doted on, whether it was at home or at grandma's house. No one didn't dote on her, especially Zhou Nan. In order to make up for not being by Zhi Xia's side when she was little, she was even more affectionate to her than her own grandchildren on that side of the family.
Children who grew up pampered tended to be a little temperamental, with their own thoughts and persistence. Of course it wasn't so easy for them to be influenced.
"Anyway, she's just an unimportant person. Come together if suitable, go separate ways if not. Don't worry and get annoyed because of others, there's no need for that." ChenYe looked up at her and asked, "School starts tomorrow, have you finished your homework?"
"I finished it already. Brother, you're more annoying than our teachers!" The little bit of annoyance brought by Yun Yan was instantly dispersed by this question.
She and Pei ChenYe were twins, so inevitably they would be compared by others.
Although she felt that she wasn't too bad herself, when compared to her genius brother known as the study god, she was clearly lacking.
Including her younger brothers below, they had all been suppressed by big brother, as if there was no chance of turning the tables.
How annoying!
She didn't even know why she felt so annoyed.
So annoyed that now even seeing the big yellow dog made her want to kick it.
Fortunately she still had reason and didn't actually do that.
The situation in Shen City had stabilized, especially after exploring the overseas markets. Zhi Xia had specially designed some lady styles and sold them overseas. Money was flowing in like water every day.
Hu Zhou called. "Sis An, I feel like I'm not needed here anymore. I don't really understand the subsequent management, Wu Ge can handle it himself, so I want to go back to Jin Cheng's side, okay? Can you help me see if there are any houses for sale near you?"
Actually it didn't matter which side he was on. It was mainly because of his daughter.
Yue Ya had started school too. Originally he wanted her to go to school in Shen City, but this girl didn't want to be with her dad after being with Zhi Xia for so long.
He could only bring her over to stay for a few days every year during vacation. When school started she had to go back, saying she would miss her brothers and sisters.
Hu Zhou was very helpless, but he doted on his daughter. Seeing her sad, he could only go along with her wishes.
The factory was very stable now, so there wasn't much meaning in him staying. He wanted to go back to Jin Cheng and reunite with his daughter.
After all, he had dividends from this side. With the money currently in hand, even if he did nothing he had enough to eat for a lifetime. When he went back to Jin Cheng, he could think about starting something.
Earning money initially was so that his daughter could have a good life. Now that the goal was achieved, there was no reason to separate father and daughter for money.
"Okay, I'll keep an eye out for you. When do you plan to come back?" Zhi Xia would definitely help with this, but houses were hard to find now, especially in this area.
"Whenever you can get the house settled on your side, I guess. Me and Yue Ya are different, she can stay at your place, but when I go back I have to have somewhere to stay." Hu Zhou said.
Zhi Xia joked with him, "You don't have anywhere to stay? I remember last time you came back you were staying at Huasheng the whole time."
"Hehe, I have to say, that Xiao Xuan Liu really knows how to treat people well. Huasheng's black gold card, and Sis An is still a major shareholder, don't tell me you don't have one huh."
Zhi Xia had invested the most in Huasheng, followed by Wu Xiaohua, but it had always been managed by Liu Xuan. He had put in the most effort, so his and Wu Xiaohua's ownership stakes were the same, both slightly lower than Zhi Xia's.
After chatting with Hu Zhou for a few more sentences, Zhi Xia hung up the phone.
The residents here were all long-time locals. Generally no one would sell their home unless they were in dire straits. In previous years there were some families wanting to sell, but she hadn't even heard the news before the homes were sold. So buying a house now really wasn't easy.
The location downtown that was originally planned for a shopping mall ultimately did not become one due to the government being unable to overcome the Hong Kong businessman, and instead agreed for it to become residential housing.
With the government's various support policies, plus many idle people looking for jobs now, the project was progressing quite quickly. Zhi Xia had gone to take a look before; the residential buildings were six to seven stories high, only accessible by stairs.
The first phase had finished construction by the end of the year. However, the recent launch was not ideal and only a few units were sold.
As for the second phase, the foundations were laid but construction had stopped for several days already. They were probably observing the sales situation of the first phase, which was clearly not ideal.
In Zhi Xia's opinion, there was nothing wrong with the government's plans.
Building a large shopping mall first would attract a constant stream of people, and the stores in the mall could also be rented or sold, which would definitely be more popular than the residential housing.
The Hong Kong businessman still didn't understand the domestic situation and was being too presumptuous.
Although that area was considered the city center, if it was really a prosperous area, such a large vacant lot wouldn't have been left empty.
The real estate era was about to come. Almost all of Jin Cheng would be affected.
"Little Sixth, I heard your family wants to buy a house?" After running out crying last time, Yun Yan came back again after less than two days.
Recently Wanqing realized that the little friends she used to play with were all busy. Every time they would have something going on, so she could only calm her heart and focus on studying.
Upon hearing Yun Yan ask Little Sixth this question in the yard, she came out and said, "How did you know about it?"
"Auntie An herself said so, it's being spread outside already, isn't it?"
"Then there's no difference. My mom did say she wanted to find a house."
"But your family already has such a big house, it's not like there's nowhere to live. Why do you still need to buy a house?" Yun Yan wondered.
"It's because one of my uncles is coming back to live, so we have to buy a house." Perhaps because she hadn't been able to find friends to play with recently, Wanqing no longer found Yun Yan's clinginess annoying.
This person wasn't completely without merits either. At the very least, her grasp on the local situation was stronger than someone like herself who had lived here longer.
"What does your uncle do? Didn't he live here before?"
Yun Yan always seemed to have a lot to say. Wanqing didn't want to talk about these things. These were issues between adults. She simply called her to go watch TV together.
After a few days, Zhi Xia finally found a house.
It wasn't too far from her place, just a 10 minute walk.
After going to see the house, she was quite satisfied overall. Although it wasn't very big, it was perfectly sufficient for Hu Zhou and Yue Ya's two people to live in.
Besides, they wouldn't be staying here for too long. The real estate era was about to arrive, and almost the entirety of Jin Cheng would be affected.
"The house is pretty good, uncle. How much are you looking to sell it for?" Zhi Xia asked.
The uncle laughed merrily. He looked very honest, but the number he uttered made Zhi Xia's heart sink. "ChenYe's mom, you saw it too. I just renovated this house not long ago. If you sincerely want it, I'll give it to you for 10,000 yuan. Look at the location, just a few steps out the door and you're at the main road. The yard is big and spacious, and the ground is paved with green bricks..."
