Chapter 76 The Lion's Big Opening, Hong Xiaohei's Dignity and Dream
Hong Yu was also confused by Li Fenghuang's enthusiasm.
What's happening here?
What a big change in attitude!
Is it because I made a fortune recently?
Just as she was about to wave down Li Fenghuang's warm invitation, she had already walked over, took Hong Yu's arm and dragged him into the house.
While pulling, he also said: "Xiaoyu, have you had breakfast? If not, aunt will cook noodles for you. The chickens at home just laid a few eggs yesterday, and aunt will cook them all for you to eat. Do you think it's okay?"
This sudden enthusiasm made Hong Yu feel a little embarrassed, and he hurriedly said: "Aunt Li, I just had it at home."
"Have eaten it!"
Li Fenghuang smiled and said, "That's okay. Come over tomorrow and Auntie will cook it for you."
"Okay, thank you Aunt Li."
Hong Yu said perfunctorily.
Li Fenghuang forcibly dragged him into the house and sat on the Eight Immortals table in the living room. Li Fenghuang was busy serving tea and water to Hong Yu.
Hong Guoxiang asked curiously at this time: "Xiaoyu, do you have something wrong with you coming to our house?"
Hong Yu nodded: "Yes, Uncle Guoxiang, I do have something to do with you."
"What's going on?" Hong Guoxiang asked.
"Xiaoyu, if you have any questions, just ask. As long as my aunt and your uncle can help, I won't be vague."
Li Fenghuang followed.
People who don't know, think that she, Li Fenghuang, is a kind-hearted person who is willing to help others.
Hong Yu didn't make any detours at the moment and said straightforwardly: "Aunt Li, Uncle Guoxiang, it's like this. I want to build a new house next to my house. I'm afraid the little homestead land left by my house is not enough."
"So, I want to buy the homestead next to your family. Do you think you would like to sell it to me?"
When it came to such a big matter as selling land, Hong Guoxiang did not dare to say anything.
He is a strict wife.
At home, I have no right to speak at all.
Whatever I say, I basically listen to my wife.
"Xiaoyu, of course I am willing."
Xiao Hei agreed, "Anyway, those homesteads are of little use to our family. If you want them, just take them. As for the money, you can just give us whatever you want."
Li Fenghuang glared at his son and signaled him not to talk nonsense.
Then, he immediately showed a smiling face, looked at Hong Yu and said with a smile:
"Xiaoyu, our two families have been neighbors for many years. If you want a homestead, of course we are willing to sell it to you. But you also know that our Xiaohei has reached the age of marriage. Nowadays, the bride price is very expensive.
Starting from two to three hundred thousand."
"So, look at the price, is it..."
Hong Yu smiled and said: "What Aunt Li said is, you can tell me the price."
"Well."
Li Fenghuang was overjoyed, thinking that Hong Yu was now a multimillionaire and knew the richest man in the county. He had plenty of money and could not afford less.
She stretched out five fingers and said with a smile: "This number, Xiaoyu, what do you think?"
Hong Yu said: "Okay, fifty thousand is fifty thousand, I will transfer the money to you now."
He reached for his cell phone from his pocket.
Unexpectedly, Li Fenghuang's expression suddenly changed, his tone rose several degrees, and he said sharply: "Xiaoyu, what's fifty thousand? I mean five hundred thousand."
Five hundred thousand?
Hong Yu looked stunned.
The hand holding the phone was still in his pocket, and he forgot to take it out.
He really didn't expect that Li Fenghuang would be so open-minded.
The homestead of Li Fenghuang's family that he wants to buy is only about three-thirds of a field. Even if it is land in the center of the county, it cannot be sold for such a high price of 500,000.
Hong Guoxiang and Xiao Hei were also stunned.
Five hundred thousand, they didn't even dare to think about it.
"Mom, aren't you blackmailing Xiaoyu?"
Xiao Hei looked unhappy, "This is rural land. You think it's land in a big city. Xiaoyu is willing to pay 50,000 yuan, which is already a lot. Isn't it just a lot of money for our house to be built on?"
Did you buy it for 20,000 yuan?"
"Now you ask Xiaoyu for 500,000 yuan, why don't you go and grab it?"
Xiao Hei was holding back his anger.
He knew that his mother, Li Fenghuang, saw that Hong Yu was now prosperous and wanted to kill Hong Yu severely.
Li Fenghuang glared at his son, "Why did I blackmail you? I didn't force him to buy it."
"Also, have you ever talked to your mother like this?"
Hong Guoxiang scolded: "Xiao Hei, tell your mother you're sorry quickly."
Xiao Hei didn't want to talk to Li Fenghuang, who was jealous at the sight of money. He took Hong Yu's arm and said:
"Xiaoyu, let's go and leave them alone. I will help you find a solution regarding the homestead."
Xiao Hei said, "That's enough." Hong Yu felt very relieved.
He pressed the hand that Xiao Hei stretched out to pull his, and said with a smile: "Xiao Hei, your mother is right, she didn't force me to buy it, so it's not considered blackmail."
Xiao Hei was really speechless, "Xiao Yu, why are you still helping her to speak?"
Hong Yu said: "Because I think what your mother said makes sense."
As he said that, Hong Yu looked at Li Fenghuang and said, "Aunt Li, as you said, five hundred thousand is just five hundred thousand."
Now that he is prosperous, he will naturally not forget his good friends.
This 500,000 yuan should be considered as an advance wedding for Xiao Hei, my best friend since childhood.
"ah???"
Li Fenghuang was dumbfounded and looked at Hong Yu with wide eyes, a look of disbelief on his face.
She shouted out a high price of 500,000 yuan, but she didn't expect Hong Yu to be willing to pay it.
Whoever gives it is a fool.
According to the market price in rural areas, her family's little homestead cost at most 30,000 yuan.
The reason why they shouted such a high price was that they were just asking for more money, and they were waiting for Hong Yu to counter-offer.
Even if it comes back to 100,000 yuan, isn't that still 50,000 yuan more than the 50,000 yuan proposed before?
However, what she never expected was that Hong Yu would not pay back even a cent of the price.
Hong Guoxiang and Xiao Hei were also dumbfounded.
Jun looked at Hong Yu as if he were looking at a fool.
You can't be so willful if you have money.
"Xiaoyu...are you telling the truth?"
Li Fenghuang reacted, his voice trembling with excitement.
Hong Yu nodded and smiled: "Of course."
Xiao Hei hurriedly stopped him and said, "Xiao Yu, are you stupid, spending half a million just to buy a piece of shabby homestead land?"
"Listen to me, don't buy it. This money is enough to buy a commercial house in the county."
Seeing that he was about to get half a million yuan, Li Fenghuang didn't want to be disturbed by his son, so he scolded: "Xiao Hei, Xiaoyu is rich, but he doesn't care about half a million yuan at all. He is happy to build a house at home. You are a child."
What do you know, stop talking."
Xiao Hei was about to refute, but was interrupted by Hong Yu: "Xiao Hei, I understand your thoughts, but your mother is right, I just like to build a house at home."
Xiao Hei didn't know what to say for a moment.
Li Fenghuang said quickly: "Xiaoyu, starting from today, my homestead will be given to you. The contract can be signed at any time, but will you also give me the money today?"
Hong Yu said: "Of course, I can transfer five hundred thousand to you now."
As he said that, Hong Yu had already taken out his mobile phone.
Seeing Hong Yu agreeing so readily, Li Fenghuang suddenly felt that when he called for five hundred thousand just now, was he too short?
I should have asked for a little more.
Anyway, Hong Yu is rich, so he is not short of that.
Your family should seize this opportunity.
The more I think about it, the more I regret it.
Along with greed, she mustered up the courage and regretted:
"Xiaoyu, Aunt Li just thought about it and I'm afraid this five hundred thousand is not enough."
"You also know that the government does not easily approve this homestead now. If my son Xiaohei makes money in the future and wants to build a bigger house, what will he do if he doesn't have this homestead?"
The smile on Hong Yu's face suddenly froze.
He is rich. In order to make his good friend's family live a better life, he doesn't care if it's only 500,000 yuan.
But Li Fenghuang treated him like a pig, killing him again and again, which was a bit too much.
"Mom, you are really pushing your limits. Five hundred thousand is still too little for you?"
Hong Xiaohei felt ashamed for Li Fenghuang.
If the other person was not his mother, he would definitely curse her.
Li Fenghuang did feel that he was a bit too greedy, and looking at Hong Yu's expression, something didn't seem right, so he immediately said:
"Xiaoyu, half a million is just half a million. After all, we have been neighbors for so many years. How can we ask for more money from you?"
Hong Yu's expression softened.
If Li Fenghuang hadn't relented just now and insisted on asking for more money, he would have left immediately.
For good friends, there will be plenty of opportunities to take care of them in the future, and there is no need to give someone a slap in the face.
"Aunt Li, if that's the case, take out your phone and I'll transfer the money to you."
Hong Yu said.
"Okay, okay."
Li Fenghuang couldn't wait to take out his mobile phone and opened the payment code on the WeChat interface. His hands were shaking.
She and her husband Hong Guoqiang have worked hard for most of their lives, but they have not yet earned half a million.
Who knew that by selling a piece of land, I could earn half a million yuan.
I feel like I’ll wake up laughing from my dreams today.
Just when Hong Yu was about to scan the QR code to transfer money, Hong Xiaohei suddenly snatched Li Fenghuang's mobile phone.
"Hong Xiaohei, what are you doing? Give me your phone quickly."
Li Fenghuang said anxiously.
Five hundred thousand was just around the corner, and he didn't want any trouble.
Hong Xiaohei said: "Mom, we can't take this money."
Li Fenghuang yelled: "You idiot, what do you know? Give me your phone back quickly, or don't enter my house again."
Hong Guoxiang shouted angrily: "Xiao Hei, return the phone to your mother quickly, or your mother will really kick you out of the house."
"Let her drive away. I'm not willing to stay in a home like this."
Hong Xiaohei roared angrily and threw his cell phone to the ground on the spot.
"Okay, Hong Xiaohei, you are now braver. If you dare to throw my phone, I will beat you to death."
Li Fenghuang became angry and pinched his son Hong Xiaohei's arm several times.
Hong Xiaohei ignored the pain in his body. He looked at Hong Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, I know that you are willing to spend such a high price to buy my homestead because of my face."
"First of all, I thank you. Now that you are prosperous, you have not forgotten me as a good friend."
"But, I don't need such mercy from you. If you still consider me a friend, don't do this, otherwise none of us friends will have to do it."
After that, Hong Xiaohei rushed out of the house.
"Xiao Hei, come back."
Hong Yu shouted and chased after him.
"Okay, if you have the ability, you will never come back."
Li Fenghuang put his hands on his waist and was still cursing.
But when he thought about it, he still hadn't received the 500,000 yuan, so he immediately chased me out, "Xiaoyu, wait a minute, you haven't given me the money yet."
Hong Yu said without looking back: "Sorry, I won't buy it."
Not buying it?
Li Fenghuang was dumbfounded on the spot.
It felt like the half a million that I had in my pocket was gone in the blink of an eye.
That feeling is indescribable.
"Xiaoyu, I'll sell it to you for three hundred thousand."
"Xiaoyu, two hundred thousand."
"One hundred thousand!"
"fifty thousand!"
"..."
In the end, she shouted for 30,000 yuan, and then, Hong Yu still didn't look back.
She instantly collapsed on the ground, completely exhausted.
"Fifty thousand, my half a million."
Li Fenghuang sat on the ground and cried bitterly.
"Mom, are you okay? Get up quickly. If it's gone, it's gone. Our homestead isn't worth that much anyway."
Hong Guoxiang came over and comforted him.
"You know nothing."
Li Fenghuang slapped Hong Guoxiang in the face, "It's all because of that stupid son you gave birth to. If it weren't for him, I would have gotten the 500,000 yuan a long time ago."
"With that five hundred thousand, I will be able to go back to my parents' home to show off with my head held high."
Hong Guoqiang covered his old face and thought, wasn't that silly son born to you too? Why did you hit me?
...
After chasing for several hundred meters, Hong Yu caught up with Hong Xiaohei.
"Xiao Hei, it was my fault. I shouldn't have helped you in such a superficial way without considering your feelings."
Hong Yu apologized.
Hong Xiaohei is one of the few good friends he has had since he grew up.
He didn't want the relationship between the two of them to have cracks for many years because of a trivial matter.
Hong Xiaohei waved his hand and said: "Xiaoyu, I won't mention the past, and I'm not really angry with you."
"I just hate that I grew up in such a family with such a mean and greedy mother."
Hong Yu sighed and comforted: "At least, you still have a mother and have enjoyed maternal love, but I have never even seen my mother's face since I was a child."
Hong Xiaohei said in a deep voice: "I would rather not have such maternal love. You don't know how suffocating my life is in such a family every day."
"Okay, it's okay not to talk about these things. Xiaoyu, I have to leave."
"Walk?"
Hong Yu frowned: "Where are you going?"
Hong Xiaohei said: "I'm going to work outside. Anyway, I can't stay here for a day."
Hong Yu said: "Have you thought about it?"
Hong Xiaohei nodded: "Think about it, our junior high school classmate Huang Botao, do you remember?"
Hong Yu had some impression and nodded, "Remember."
Hong Xiaohei said: "This guy has done well in the past two years. He has opened a big bar in Jiangzhou City. He is short of manpower. I want to join him and gain experience by the way."
"Speaking of which, I have grown up and I have never been alone outside. Maybe I can carve out a world of my own."
Hong Xiaohei's eyes were shining with little stars, full of longing for the outside world.
Hong Yu said: "Okay, I support you, when will you set off?"
Hong Xiaohei said: "Today, I was kicked out of the house anyway."
Hong Yu looked at the time and found that it was already nine o'clock. Yesterday, he promised Zhou Wanrou that he would accompany her to the antique market in Jiangzhou City to help appraise antiques.
"Xiao Hei, I happen to have something to go to Jiangzhou City. Let me give you a ride."
