Chapter 2254
Lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot
If someone gets scammed a lot, they'll eventually learn a lesson.
Of course, this excludes Liu Haizhong and Shazhu.
These two are in a state of "you lied to me a thousand times, but I still treat you like my first love."
No matter how many times Yi Zhonghai lies to them, they will continue to believe him.
The only thing Liu Haizhong is better at than Sha Zhu is that he doesn't believe Qin Huairu's nonsense.
Apart from these two, everyone in the courtyard was shrewd. It wasn't that they couldn't see through Yi Zhonghai's true colors, they just didn't dare to resist.
These days, they won't believe Yi Zhonghai's words.
Geng Guangjian and his group held a private meeting and unanimously concluded that Yi Zhonghai had ulterior motives for buying the house.
The plenary session was successfully held.
Yi Zhonghai received support from Jin Qihao, who even bought peanuts and melon seeds for him.
"Alright, let's begin the meeting. I don't need to elaborate on the purpose of today's meeting."
You should all have thought it through.
Once everyone signs the agreement, they'll get their money.
"Grandpa, what kind of agreement do you want to sign?"
Yi Zhonghai replied matter-of-factly, "Of course it's an agreement to sell the house."
"Since none of you live in the courtyard, keeping the house is useless. You might as well sell it and buy an apartment."
“We never said we were going to sell the house.”
"Yes, we didn't say we were going to sell the house."
Everyone unanimously refused to sell the house.
Yi Zhonghai was stunned, and also furious.
He felt that these people were deliberately causing him trouble.
"Shut up, all of you! What are you trying to do? We told you to come back and live here, but you won't come back."
Now, the three of us old men have connected you with a big boss who will help you sell your house.
What are you unhappy about?
When Yi Zhonghai gets angry, it's indeed quite frightening, but that's all it is—quite frightening.
Geng Guangjian and his group had already reached a consensus and would not compromise easily.
"Just because we're not coming back to live here doesn't mean we're going to sell the house."
"Exactly. To put it another way, even if we were to sell the house, we might not necessarily sell it to Jin Qihao."
"Yes. Selling the house is possible, but it depends on who offers the highest price."
We'll sell to whoever offers the highest price.
Yi Zhonghai understood. These people in front of him didn't not want to sell their houses; they just wanted to take the opportunity to inflate prices.
These were the tricks he used to deal with these people in the past; he never expected them to be used on him.
Liu Haizhong slammed his fist on the table: "Are you trying to rebel?"
"Second Uncle, don't say that. How did we rebel?"
Do you think you're the emperor? You're even rebelling.
If you dare to say you're the emperor, we really will rebel.
"Yes."
Geng Guangjian and his group were very united and had a strong morale.
There's nothing Liu Haizhong can do now.
Yan Bugui had no choice but to step forward: "Everyone, listen to me. We understand how you feel."
However, the price of housing is finite.
What you're doing is unreasonable.
"The house is ours, and we can sell it for whatever price we want."
If you think it's too expensive, then don't buy it.
Three old men took turns trying to calm things down, but none of them could control the situation.
Yi Zhonghai winked at Bang Geng, wanting him to bring people to threaten him.
However, Geng Guangjian and his men were not to be trifled with and refused to back down.
The two sides almost came to blows, but Qin Huairu stopped them in the end.
Bang Geng is her own son, and Geng Guangjian and the others are not young anymore.
If something goes wrong, Bang Geng's future will be over.
Yi Zhonghai's seemingly certain victory at the college-wide meeting resulted in immediate bankruptcy.
Geng Guangjian and his men left angrily. "Let's go find He Guoqiang and ask him if he wants to buy a house."
After leaving those words, Geng Guangjian and his group left the courtyard.
Qin Huairu looked helpless: "Zhonghai, what do we do now?"
"If we can't buy a house, how are we going to explain this to Jin Qihao?"
Yi Zhonghai's face was ashen, and his eyes could kill.
Before the meeting, he did anticipate that Geng Guangjian and his group would not sell the house easily.
He was also prepared to raise some prices.
But he never expected that Geng Guangjian and his group would have such big appetites, exceeding his bottom line.
Although he didn't pay for the house, he still couldn't agree to this request.
This is a matter of his dignity as an old man.
As for how to explain it to Jin Qihao, this problem is not difficult for Yi Zhonghai.
He could easily pin the blame on He Yuzhu and tell Jin Qihao that He Yuzhu knew about the news in advance and deliberately caused trouble.
Yi Zhonghai shared his idea with everyone, and they reached a consensus.
They all decided to go see Jin Qihao together and play the victim.
Geng Guangjian and his group weren't intentionally trying to scare Yi Zhonghai. They genuinely went to He Guoqiang and told him that Yi Zhonghai wanted to buy a house.
Their goal was simple: to sell the house to whoever offered the most money.
He Guoqiang asked in detail, but did not make any promises to Geng Guangjian and his group.
"Mr. He, from what we've heard, it seems they want to buy all the houses in the courtyard house complex."
If you really want to buy a house, you need to find a way as soon as possible.
The so-called solution is to raise prices.
He Guoqiang isn't stupid; he won't fall for their tricks.
"Alright, I understand. I'm busy right now, but I'll have someone contact you when I'm done."
This is my business card. Please take it and let me know if you have any news.
I will not treat you unfairly.
"Mr. He, aren't you going to buy the houses we have?"
He Guoqiang said with a smile, "If you want to sell it at a high price, so do I."
If Yi Zhonghai really offers a high price to buy my house, why wouldn't I sell it?
If he contacts you, just say so. Wouldn't it be better if we worked together to sell it for a higher price?
Geng Guangjian and the others were taken aback, but then thought He Guoqiang's idea was good.
They have no objection to who the house is sold to; their only requirement is that it be sold at a high price.
In that case, cooperating with He Guoqiang is not out of the question.
The group left He Guoqiang's side satisfied.
He Guoqiang turned around and found Xu Damao, and told him the news.
Xu Damao was also taken aback. Having lived in the courtyard house for so many years, he had never heard of the deaf old lady having a son.
"This can't be fake, can it?"
He Guoqiang said, "I've had someone inquire about it. Some time ago, a wealthy person did indeed visit the courtyard house."
Those people in the courtyard were still making a big fuss about preparing things for the grave-sweeping ceremony.
That Jin Qihao should be real.
Xu Damao still couldn't believe it: "This isn't right. How could the deaf old lady suddenly have a son who wants to buy a courtyard house?"
He Guoqiang shook his head: "I don't know about that. Oh, right, there's another piece of news."
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, who used to follow you, have returned to the courtyard house.
The three sons of the Yan family also returned to the courtyard house.
They lived in Yan Bugui's temporary housing.
Xu Damao was starting to believe it. Putting aside others, the Yan family's children would absolutely not easily return to the courtyard house.
The only thing that could bring the Yan family children back was enough profit.
Xu Damao chuckled: "Those old bastards are really tough."
We were barely scraping by when this deaf old woman's son showed up.
He Guoqiang then asked, "President Xu, what do you think we should do next?"
They approached Geng Guangjian and his associates, wanting to buy a courtyard house.
Should I sell to them, or not?
Xu Damao thought for a moment and said, "Don't rush, let me discuss it with He Yuzhu first." (End of this chapter)
