Chapter 431 The Father and Daughter Who Rebel Against Heaven

"Such a big thing, why didn't you discuss it with your family first!" Qiao Xiaoyun frowned and scolded him as soon as she heard that he wanted to buy three more acres of land.

In Qiao Xiaoyun's eyes, even though Qiao Changdong is an adult and has children, she still thinks he is young and should discuss such important decisions with his family before making them.

"I'm here to discuss this with you all." Qiao Changdong didn't care about Qiao Xiaoyun's reproach and just said with a smile.

"How can this be the same? What price is it?" Qiao Xiaoyun glared at him irritably, and then asked.

"The price is the same as last time." As Qiao Changdong answered, he took out seven or eight blueprints from his pocket and placed them on the high table in the main room of the Mo family.

These are the architectural drawings of various courtyard houses that he specifically sought out from Wang Zhenhua when he was in Tianjin.

He explained, “Look at this. This is what I saw in Jinshi this time. My uncle’s family also lives in this kind of house. I think the layout of this kind of house is particularly good, and I want to build a similar one here.”

After looking at a set of architectural drawings for a while, Meng Zhengcheng gave an affirmative answer: "This is good, this is good."

The others also took a copy and looked at it with great curiosity.

"Houses can be built like this? It looks pretty good."

"It looks good. Is this how they build houses in Jinshi?"

"This house is really grand; it must be able to house quite a few people."

In recent years, apart from Qiao Changdong, who drives his truck all over the country, most of the Qiao family members have lived in Hongfeng Town. The farthest they have ever been is Baoyi City, and it was only because Qiao Changdong bought a hotel there that they had the opportunity to go.

The houses in Baoyi City are almost identical to those in Hongfeng Town.

For poor families, building a single-story house is considered quite good. A better house might be a two-story building or something similar. In short, in Huajiang Province, a good house is one that keeps adding more floors.

This was the first time they had ever seen a house built not on top, but around the perimeter, with rings upon rings.

"It's good, but building this will cost at least tens of thousands." Qiao Xiaoyun didn't quite understand the blueprints, but she felt that adding so much land must cost a lot of money.

Qiao Changdong's current house, including the cost of the land, has cost about 30,000 yuan so far. This does not include the soft furnishings and decorations to be done later.

Now they want to add three more courtyards like this, wouldn't building a house cost over 100,000 yuan?

Building a house in the countryside doesn't require buying a foundation, and even building a multi-story house rarely costs tens of thousands of yuan.

As a result, it cost Qiao Changdong over 100,000 yuan to build a house, which was an astronomical figure for Qiao Xiaoyun.

"It's alright, it's alright, I'll pay for it." After Qiao Xiaoyun finished speaking, Old Master Wang, who was discussing martial arts with Old Master Mo, immediately patted his chest and said in a very generous manner.

“There are five siblings in total, so let’s build a courtyard house with five courtyards. Your uncle hasn’t helped you much over the years, so consider this house as a gift from your uncle to you when we first meet.”

"Originally, your uncle planned to give you 200,000 yuan. Now, it's perfect. You can use this 200,000 yuan to build a house. Build it in one place so the whole family can live together in harmony and happiness, and let your mother enjoy her retirement."

Mr. Wang's words were sincere.

He wanted to make it up to Grandma Qiao. He had previously planned to let her stay in Jinshi and hire a nanny and maids for her so that she could spend her later years comfortably.

But Grandma Qiao was unwilling; she couldn't stay for more than a few days.

One minute she'd say the chickens and ducks at home were unattended, the next she'd say the fields were overgrown with weeds. As the end of the month approached, she became even more anxious, unable to stay still for a moment, pacing back and forth in the house, saying the rice seedlings needed to be planted and if she didn't go back, the family wouldn't be able to manage.

In short, being with him was uncomfortable and unpleasant in every way.

Grandpa Wang knew that it was unlikely he could keep his sister.

There was no other way but to come back with her.

When he returned to Qiaojia Village with them yesterday, he was so upset by the sight of those few houses that he almost burst into tears.

If Qiao Changdong hadn't later mentioned that he had already built a house in town, he would have brought up the matter of building a house for the Qiao family separately today.

After Grandpa Wang finished speaking, Yan Xiaoqing, who was sitting next to him, did not say anything to refute him.

She simply smiled, and her expression remained unchanged, clearly indicating that she agreed with her husband's suggestion.

However, this suggestion was rejected by Qiao Changdong.

He knew that Grandpa Wang felt sorry for Grandma Qiao and wanted to make up for the suffering she had endured over the years. He wouldn't interfere if he gave money to Grandma Qiao separately; that was a matter between him and his sister.

But he can't take Old Master Wang's money.

Moreover, he felt more at ease spending Qiao Qiao's earnings than spending Old Master Wang's money.

He said in a very proud tone, "You don't need to worry about money. My daughter can earn money and she will support me."

Qiao Qiao, who was squatting down picking vegetables, heard Qiao Changdong's words and actually raised her little head, showing the same matter-of-fact expression as Qiao Changdong, and nodded in agreement: "Yes, I am very capable. I can earn a lot of money for Dad. I can support Dad."

Last time, Qiao Changdong and Qiao Qiao placed a total of ten raw stones with Mo Haijun.

When they were in Nanzhou, they sold two of them and made 100,000 yuan, which they haven't spent yet.

When they went to Kyoto, Mo Haijun called them and said that he had sold four more, bringing in 180,000. He said that 18,000 would be given to Mo Haijun as commission at a rate of 10%, leaving them with more than 160,000.

This money was transferred to them when they returned to Baoyi City.

They earned over 260,000 yuan from just the six raw stones they sold, enough to build a house without any problem.

Moreover, she still has at least a hundred high-quality raw stones left in her bracelet space. If she can sell them, she can make countless amounts of money.

Even if they can't sell them, the revenue from Dongqiao Hotel over the past two months will be enough for the father and daughter to live a good life.

Therefore, Qiao Qiao was 100% confident that she could support her father without relying on the assets Yan Liti gave her.

"..." The others who heard Qiao Changdong and Qiao Qiao's words.

They were all speechless and choked with emotion.

I just felt that this father and daughter were completely upside down!

Seeing that Qiao Changdong was adamant, Grandpa Wang had no choice but to regretfully compromise. He thought to himself that he would have to make it up to Grandma Qiao in other ways.

At noon, the Mo family set up three large tables.

With Chef Wang around, the dishes on the table are no longer all from Hongfeng Town; there are also quite a few from Jinshi.

Around 12:30, Xiang Dongyan also picked up her sons who were in junior high school and brought them back.
