Due to Mr. Yang's affairs, Qin Chuan only stayed at his home for one night before leaving this "scene of sorrow" the next day.
Teacher Yang had returned to his hometown in the provincial capital. He didn't even know where he lived, so there was no way to find him even if he wanted to.
Moreover, he was really busy recently and could only find a breakthrough from his elder brother-in-law after this period of busyness.
Qin Chuan was accompanied by his parents.
His eldest brother, sister-in-law, and their family would send their parents to the city, and then Qin's second brother would come back to pick them up. Now Qin Gang could also drive, although he didn't have a license.
It's worth mentioning that Li Ya was very efficient. In less than a day, she had already rented a house, but not a connected one, as connected ones were too hard to find.
However, the two houses were not very far apart, only a few hundred meters.
Furthermore, the location was slightly off from the main urban area, but the place was very spacious. It was a cave dwelling with a unique northern style, warm in winter and cool in summer, with its own courtyard, almost resembling rural life.
Living here, if there was time, one could also grow vegetables and raise chickens in the outer courtyard.
Qin Shuren and Jiang Cuihua fell in love with it at first sight.
Especially since the various furniture and appliances were all very complete, there was almost nothing to buy, and they could move in directly.
According to the owner of the house, their children all worked and settled down in other cities, and the elderly couple were also planning to move to a big city with them soon, so the house would be empty.
Since it was idle, it was better to rent it out and earn some income.
"Uncle and Aunt, I've also added some new quilts and bed sheets for you. A washbasin, toothpaste, toothbrush, towel, and I've also bought two sets of new clothes for each of you. If you think anything else is missing, I'll buy it for you!"
Li Ya was naturally also accompanying them. Today, Li Ya was dressed very simply and beautifully. The light-colored cropped jeans made her beautiful legs look straight and slender, smooth and plump.
She wore a pair of sports sandals and a milky white small suit on top, with a white short-sleeved shirt underneath. Her long ponytail, paired with her delicate face, made her look not like a twenty-seven-year-old mature woman, but like a female university student of similar age to Qin Chuan.
Such an outfit would subconsciously evoke a sense of closeness, let alone Li Ya's thoughtfulness and virtuousness.
Looking at Li Ya, who stood gracefully beside Qin Chuan, Qin Shuren and Jiang Cuihua were extremely pleased.
If their son could really marry a daughter-in-law like Li Ya, the old couple would wake up laughing in their dreams. This was simply the perfect daughter-in-law image in all parents' minds.
The only drawback was that their troublesome son was a philanderer. Even with a beautiful woman like Li Ya, he was not satisfied and was still thinking of getting involved with other women.
Thinking of this, the old couple got angry and glared fiercely at Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan was confused by his parents' glare, not knowing what he had done to displease them again for no reason.
"Xiao Ya, please don't bother!"
"We don't lack anything!"
Qin Shuren said quickly.
Jiang Cuihua even waved her hand, inviting Li Ya to sit beside her. She gently held one of Li Ya's small hands and kindly asked about her recent work.
Li Ya smiled and sat aside, chatting with Jiang Cuihua, while Qin Chuan seemed like an adopted child, busy moving things around and sweating profusely.
Two hours later, Qin Gang brought over his eldest brother, sister-in-law, and their family. Everyone helped to tidy up the house.
By the time everything was almost sorted, it was already twelve o'clock noon.
"Uncle and Aunt, and Eldest Brother and Sister-in-law, I've already booked a meal at a restaurant in the county town to welcome you!"
Li Ya said.
"Oh my, child, you've done so much running around, how can we let you spend more money!"
"We must pay for this meal!"
Jiang Cuihua and Qin Shuren both objected. Sister-in-law Wu Yanyan met Li Ya for the first time, although she had already heard her name many times.
Looking at Li Ya, who looked like a movie star, and her dignified and generous demeanor.
Then she thought about her being a beautiful factory director, already worth hundreds of thousands at such a young age, and couldn't help but feel inferior.
"Sister, we really can't let you pay for this meal anymore, I'll treat!"
Qin Chuan said to Li Ya.
Li Ya looked at Qin Chuan's serious expression and obediently nodded: "Okay! It doesn't matter who treats!"
A lunch ended amidst laughter and joy.
After lunch, Qin Chuan first took his family to his construction site.
Looking at the towering building that was already under construction for the fourth floor, and the enthusiastic workers on the site, Jiang Cuihua, Qin Shuren, and Wu Yanyan covered their mouths in surprise, feeling that their eyes were not enough!
This was not just building houses, but truly building apartment buildings!
A one-word difference, a world of difference!
Although the three of them had already heard about all this from Qin Chuan's three brothers, hearing was one thing, and seeing it with their own eyes was another.
Such tall buildings, built with steel and cement, had unparalleled visual and spiritual impact.
At the same time, a strong sense of pride arose spontaneously!
Because this was their son's endeavor!
"Xiao Chuan, how many floors are you planning to build?"
Qin Shuren couldn't suppress his excitement and asked loudly.
"Six floors!"
Qin Chuan replied. This standard was also set by him recently.
He had previously planned for five or seven floors, but after much consideration, Qin Chuan felt that six floors were the most suitable.
Because the country had explicit regulations in this regard, exceeding seven floors or when the height of the building from the ground exceeded 16 meters, an elevator would be required.
Once an elevator was added, it would be a significant investment. When Qin Chuan chose to build apartment buildings at that time, he did not plan to install elevators.
In this era, especially in small county towns, elevator buildings were a luxury that many people could not afford.
A six-story building was a regular and standard design that suited the consumption concept of Chinese people.
"If it's a six-story building, doesn't that mean it will be completed soon?"
Wu Yanyan asked in surprise.
"Approximately, it will take at most another month for this front row to be completed!"
Qin Chuan explained.
"After the front floors are completed, there is still a row behind to be constructed!"
"Another row?"
"Is it also the same size?"
Qin Shuren and Jiang Cuihua were startled again. The old couple had always thought it was just this front row, but they didn't expect a second row.
"Of course!"
Qin Chuan smiled: "If the scale were too small, it wouldn't be worth me investing so much energy. You don't know, Li Ya and I have invested all our assets!"
"Son, Mom is going to say something unpleasant, please don't mind!"
Jiang Cuihua hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but say.
"Mom, say whatever you want!"
Qin Chuan's expression remained unchanged, and Li Ya standing beside him had the same attitude.
Jiang Cuihua gritted her teeth and said, "You've invested so much, what if no one buys the houses?"
"Your money is all from bank loans. If the houses can't be sold then..."
Jiang Cuihua didn't finish her words, but everyone understood what she meant.
As Jiang Cuihua said, all the money invested by Qin Chuan and Li Ya in this real estate project was obtained from bank loans. If they couldn't sell the houses, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Not to mention repaying the bank a huge sum of two million yuan, even the interest on the two million yuan loan would be enough to crush them.
