As for himself and his wife?
Old Man Li didn't think too much about it. He was old anyway, so renting a garage to live in would be fine.
At their age, they could rely on their sons to live together and help look after their granddaughter in the future.
Even living in an underground garage would be a blessing.
"Are you developers, planning to develop Gaohai Village?" His wife came out of the house with a stool in her hand, and asked curiously upon hearing Ye Yun's words.
"Yes, we have that plan. Auntie, let me be frank with you, the price I'm offering is the highest our company can afford. For a plot like Gaohai Village, this price is already very high, isn't it?"
"We're from the village too, so we won't deceive you. Actually, the project department sent me to talk and see if we can acquire everything. If we can't, and the price is too steep, our company plans to abandon the project development here," Ye Yun said.
"Sell! Sell! Everyone in our village will definitely sell!" The wife said anxiously, as if afraid Ye Yun would disagree.
At this point, Ye Yun gritted his teeth.
"Uncle, why don't you quickly help ask other families if they are willing to sell their houses and land? As long as one family is willing, I'll give you an extra ten thousand yuan privately!"
"What? You'll give me an extra ten thousand yuan for every family that agrees to sell? Are you sure you're not kidding me?"
Old Man Li's wife's eyes widened.
Gaohai Village had over fifty households. If calculated, wouldn't that be over five hundred thousand?
Combined with the 1.5 million in demolition compensation, that would be over two million?
Wouldn't that cover the betrothal gifts and cars for their two sons?
"Auntie, I traveled all this way. Do I look like I'm joking with you?"
Ye Yun wore a simple, honest smile.
He hadn't chosen to rush over so late and pick a random family. He had spent half the day sitting at the entrance of the village, chatting with the village elders.
Gathering intelligence by the village entrance was a characteristic of China.
He analyzed based on the economic situation of each family.
He determined which family would be the breakthrough point for the village.
Among them, Old Man Li was undoubtedly the best breakthrough.
Because he had two unmarried sons!
He was the one who needed money the most, bar none!
"Yes, yes! General Manager Ye, don't worry, I guarantee I'll handle this beautifully for you!"
After two cups of wine, Old Man Li readily agreed.
Damn it!
Wasn't this money being given away for free?
Unless someone was out of their mind, they wouldn't come to Gaohai Village to buy a house, let alone at a high price of 1.5 million yuan per house!
Remember, in the past, many villagers felt inconvenienced by the living conditions and had listed their houses for sale online.
But in this remote place, there were truly few interested buyers.
A house listed for 500,000 yuan for half a year, and no one bought it.
Let alone 1.5 million?
In reality, even if Ye Yun had offered seven or eight hundred thousand, he believed he could have resolved this matter.
After all, as he recalled, Hengda Group had acquired it for 800,000 yuan in his previous life.
But he didn't do that. Firstly, he wanted to resolve it quickly to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.
More importantly, he couldn't reconcile with his conscience doing something so unscrupulous.
"Oh, by the way, my friend, is it convenient to tell me which development company you're from?" Old Man Li asked as if he had just remembered something.
Ye Yun smiled and replied,
"Does it matter which company I'm from? After all, we'll settle with cash, and there won't be any delays. Why do you need to know so much detail?"
"Exactly, exactly. You old man, why are you asking so many unnecessary questions?"
Old Man Li's wife also chided him.
"Cough, cough... Yes, yes." Old Man Li scratched his head awkwardly.
Ignoring the awkward Old Man Li, his wife looked at Ye Yun with sparkling eyes and said,
"Sir, when will this matter be finalized? Are you sure you're not trying to trick me!"
It is said that women are more sensitive.
Old Mrs. Li wondered if he was trying to fool her.
After all, a house listed for 500,000 yuan online with no takers, and he was offering three times that price?
"Do you have WeChat?" Ye Yun asked.
"My son helped me set one up," the wife replied instinctively.
"Open your payment QR code, and I'll transfer you fifty thousand yuan as a deposit first. If I'm tricking you, this fifty thousand yuan will be compensation, alright?"
"Deal! Deal!"
The wife was ecstatic and eagerly opened her payment QR code.
WeChat payment had become the norm when going out. Although they were old, the couple knew how to use it.
Ye Yun didn't hesitate, took out his phone, and transferred fifty thousand yuan.
Currently, almost all the money he had was used to short Haixin Group.
With the remaining hundreds of thousands, twenty thousand yuan was given to A'Biao as a "tea fee" when dealing with Guangtou, and now another fifty thousand yuan had been given to Old Man Li's family, leaving him with not much.
Seeing the fifty thousand yuan in her account.
The elderly couple no longer doubted Ye Yun.
Old Mrs. Li excitedly said,
"General Manager Ye, when I convince the villagers, how can I contact you?"
"Auntie, just call my phone."
They exchanged numbers.
Old Mrs. Li urged Old Man Li not to eat, and rode her electric scooter to send Ye Yun a long way out of Gaohai Village to catch a taxi.
After all, in this place, waiting all night might not even get them a taxi.
As for Old Mrs. Li herself?
She held her phone, looking at the clear fifty thousand yuan in her balance, tears welling up.
"Heaven has opened its eyes! We finally met a foolish developer with lots of money! With that over two million, both Goudan and Erwa can get married!"
"No, wait! Why is he acquiring such a big project in Gaohai Village without driving his own car, and needing Grandpa to drive him?"
"Never mind! Anyway, the fifty thousand yuan is in hand, and no one can take it away from me!"
After sighing, Old Mrs. Li, ignoring the uncleaned table, went to the next house and knocked on the door, saying,
"Sister Zhao, I have some great news to tell you..."
