Chapter 192: Chapter 183 Second Update
After briefly eting his relatives, Qin Ye quickly morized all of them.
He had a pretty good idea already, since Qin Zhen had told him about them several tis.
And Qin Zhen had described each person’s appearance and personality to him.
With a short introduction, he rembered everyone.
Then, he took out the gifts his wife had prepared.
Not only was there sothing for each household, but every individual got sothing too.
Including Qin Heng’s six-month-old little girl.
Rong Yan had prepared a lovely little dress for her, so when Qin Heng’s wife received it, she truly adored it.
The local supply and marketing cooperative actually had such beautiful children’s clothes, even prettier than the styles she saw at the Overseas Chinese Store.
Moreover, the gifts for her and her sister-in-law were a bottle of face cream, which was not only in a beautiful container but also slled wonderful when opened.
Old Sir Qin and Qin Wuchong each received a ginseng root.
Such gifts were valuable, costing about US$200 to buy.
The gifts for Qin Zhen’s parents and Qin Heng’s parents were also quite nice.
Everybody was content and pleased.
Especially when they heard that all these gifts were prepared by Qin Ye’s wife, they gauged her level of wealth, as the total cost was no small sum.
The family banquet that evening was lavish, with many dishes served, and it went on late into the night.
Even Qin Ye, who normally didn’t drink, was persuaded by Qin Zhen to drink quite a bit, and in the end, he got a little drunk…
Rong Yan felt a bit uneasy the first night after Qin Ye left, since from the ti they’d slept together, they had always shared a bed.
But the discomfort disappeared the next day, as she was quite busy.
She harvested the grains from her space every night.
Because the day after Qin Ye left, the black soil in her space inexplicably expanded.
So, she thought about it and started planting cereal crops, beginning with rice.
She had a harvest within a day, and this space was ideal – the crops would automatically thresh into grains with just her thoughts.
It couldn’t be more convenient.
She began to believe that she was Heaven’s favorite daughter.
Otherwise, how could she be so lucky?
If she harvested this plot once a day, that was 200 pounds of rice.
She truly felt she had struck it rich.
The next day, she planted wheat, which after harvesting was directly ground into flour, also yielding 200 pounds.
In her next batch, she planted corn… and again, 200 pounds.
After several days of testing, she figured out that whatever she planted, she would get 200 pounds a day.
Whether it turned into flour or grain depended on what she had in mind at the ti of harvest; otherwise, secondary processing needed to be done elsewhere.
So, she was very busy every day, leaving no ti to think about Qin Ye.
anwhile, Qin Ye, who thought he’d stay just for a day, ended up visiting the cetery the second day and on the third, was taken around Jing City by Qin Zhen.
He wasn’t in a hurry to leave anymore.
Then, realizing he wasn’t familiar with the place, he asked his elder cousin about buying a house.
Qin Zhen was really surprised to hear it.
“You’re saying you want to buy a house?”
Qin Ye nodded, “Yes, my wife gave eight thousand to bring, so what kind of house can I buy with that?” It was not just eight thousand; she had also given him the three gold bars from last ti, insisting that if the money wasn’t enough, he should just sell the gold bars.
Qin Zhen: …
My goodness, so his younger sister-in-law is this wealthy?
It looks like the foundation of his family’s younger sister-in-law is really solid.
“You actually don’t need to buy this house. If you all move to Jing City in the future, just live in the family ho, it would be perfect. If Old Sir Qin finds out you’re not staying in the family ho, he’s going to be heartbroken.”
The family house is so big that it wouldn’t be a problem not just for Qin Ye’s entire family, but even if you brought his father-in-law and mother-in-law over to live together.
Qin Ye looked at him, “We won’t be living here. We’ll live separately.”
When Qin Zhen heard his words, he knew that he was serious.
He guessed that if he didn’t take him house hunting, then he might go looking on his own.
So, he changed the subject and asked:
“Has your wife ntioned what kind of house she wants?”
Qin Ye: “Preferably a detached house with a yard, sothing bigger. If there’s a four-sided courtyard, that would be even better because my wife likes courtyards a lot.”
Qin Zhen’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
“Asking about this, you’re actually asking the right person. If you want a courtyard house, I can really introduce you to one.” It’s just that 8,000 won’t be enough.
But that’s okay. If Qin Ye doesn’t have enough money, isn’t there still Old Sir Qin?
The old man’s money will eventually be Qin Ye’s anyway, and he probably has quite a bit, maybe tens of thousands!
If Old Sir Qin knew Qin Ye wanted to buy a house, he would definitely want to provide financial support.
“Let’s go, let’s head over right now to take a look.”
Qin Ye, of course, had no objections. His heart was set on returning ho, eager to sort things out here and head back as early as possible.
It also ant reuniting sooner with his wife.
He initially thought Qin Zhen would take him sowhere else, but they ended up leaving the Qin Family’s residence… just down one road from the Qin Family.
“Is this the place you ntioned?”
Qin Zhen nodded, “Yeah, right here. They want to sell, but the asking price for the house is quite high, so there haven’t been any buyers. Take a look and if you like it, we can go ahead and buy it. Don’t worry about the money.”
As soon as Qin Ye heard him, he directly asked, “How much is this place?”
Qin Zhen didn’t intend to hide anything from him.
“The lowest is fifteen thousand. If you only have eight thousand, Old Sir Qin will give you the other seven thousand.”
“No need, I have sothing else in my hand.” Qin Ye glanced at the house. From the outside, it indeed looked quite big.
“Is the owner of the house here? Will he co?”
“Wait here for a while; I’ll go find him.” After saying this, Qin Zhen rode away on his bicycle.
Qin Ye stood rooted to the spot, silently calculating the price of the gold bars in his mind.
Since he had never sold such items before, it was hard for him to judge their price. But he had a rough idea. He just didn’t know how to sell them.
Seems like a trip to the black market was in order for tomorrow.
Qin Zhen returned quickly, with another person riding a bicycle along with him.
It was a middle-aged man in his forties.
After the two parked their bicycles, the man gave Qin Ye a glance and then greeted him with a smile, “Are you the one who wants to buy the house?”
Qin Ye nodded, “Let’s see the house first.”
“Alright. I’ll open the door for you.” The man unlocked the door. “My house is very new and big, with a two-entry courtyard. If I wasn’t in urgent need of money, I wouldn’t even be thinking of selling it.”
Qin Ye walked in… After checking it out, he was indeed quite satisfied.
Seeing the look on his face, Qin Zhen knew that he liked it.
“What do you think?”
Qin Zhen pulled him aside.
“I have two gold bars. When you go back, could you help see how much they’re worth? If…”
He hadn’t finished speaking when Qin Zhen cut him off, “You don’t need to sell any gold bars. If you don’t want to take Great-Grandpa’s money, I’ll lend you what’s missing. You can pay back whenever you want.”
