Chapter 106 Demolition can make generations rich!
Early the next morning, Liu Mang left the house in a hurry. After eating breakfast, he drove straight to SD Province, Hou Jie's hometown.

It takes six or seven hours to take the high-speed rail, and naturally it takes longer to drive. I didn’t arrive in SD Province until around five o’clock in the afternoon when I went out in the morning.It wasn't that Liu Mang didn't want to drive fast, but it happened to be at the end of the month.

The end of September is approaching the National Day Golden Week, and there will be inexplicable traffic jams on the highway around the holidays. If Liu Mang is not an old driver, whether he can reach SD Province safely is still a problem.

Liu Mang was not in a hurry, he came to the town of Hou Jie's hometown, found a hotel to check in, and went out for dinner after cleaning up his tired body.

It is said that the people in Shandong are tough and drink very boldly. This is the first time Liu Mang has come to Shandong. When eating noodles in a small restaurant, a few old men made two bottles of Red Star Erguotou just by eating noodles.

Seeing this scene, Liu Mang, who was eating noodles, looked back from time to time.

It seems that people in Shandong are very good at drinking, and it really is not just a legend. The noodles are always drunk, and the appetite is too strong!
After eating, it was less than seven o'clock in the evening.According to the address on Hou Jie's ID card, Hou Jie is not a countryman, but lives in a small village next to the town.

Smartphones hadn't appeared more than ten years ago, so there was no mobile phone Baidu or Gaode map navigation at that time.Now Liu Mang searched on Gaode map on his mobile phone, and he directly found the address and route map on Hou Jie's ID card.

Navigating along the mobile phone's AutoNavi map, Liu Mang slowly drove the car to the place specified by the map.

After more than ten years of development, this place is a village, but it is actually close to the road. There are shops on both sides of the road. Liu Mang frowned as he looked at the house number on a shop.

The address on Hou Jie's ID card is the shop number.

The first floor is a shop, and there are four floors above it. This building has five floors in total. If the address is correct and Hou Jie's family has not moved, then this building should belong to Hou Jie's parents.

This shop should also belong to Hou Jie's parents.

In the evening, there were not many people going out to shop in the town. Except for the stores selling daily necessities, some hardware stores and clothing stores were all closed.

Liu Mang parked the car next to the shop, got out of the car and walked towards the shop.

This is a grocery store that sells a lot of things. In addition to daily necessities, rice, oil and salt, there are also some dry food and fruits.

Liu Mang walked to the refrigerator in the grocery store, opened it, took five bottles of Red Bull and two 1.5-liter bottles of C'estbon mineral water, and asked the boss to weigh two catties of peanuts.

The boss is an old man in his 70s. His temples are white, but his complexion is ruddy and he is in good health. He seems to pay much attention to health preservation, or in other words, the living conditions are good.

Liu Mang is wearing simple casual clothes at the moment. Although he is very ordinary, he should be from the city based on his temperament. The boss is also secretly happy when he sees Liu Mang buying so many things: "Young man, are you here to visit relatives or travel?"

Liu Mang, who was about to strike up a conversation with the boss, had a slight smile on his face when he heard the boss's question: "Neither of them, passing by! I don't know what the boss calls you?"

"Me! My surname is Hou. I'm not a monkey. I'm alone..." The boss said while helping Liu Mang pack the things he bought.

Upon hearing that the surname was Hou, Liu Mang couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing an excited smile, but it was only a moment, and Boss Hou didn't see the clue.

"Boss Hou, your business here is good! This shop and this building are all yours!" Liu Mang insinuated quietly.

In fact, in his heart, he really wanted to ask Boss Hou directly if he knew Hou Jie.

The surname is Hou, and the address of this grocery store is also on Hou Jie's ID card.

But it doesn't mean it's Hou Jie's father.

Because in some villages, just like his hometown and Yu Boshi's hometown, the whole village may have only one surname.

So Liu Mang didn't dare to ask the other party if he knew Hou Jie abruptly, as that would scare the other party.

"You have a good eye, you can see it all."

Speaking of this house, Boss Hou was very proud. On his wrinkled face, he showed an uncontrollable excited smile: "My daughter built this house for me with the money she earned, and this store was built with her help. I just Take care of it."

Listening to Boss Hou's words, Liu Mang couldn't tell that Boss Hou was showing off to him that he had a good daughter who could make money and take care of his family, and knew how to honor his parents.

After earning money, he built a five-story house for his parents and opened a store on the first floor.

For the parents in the town or the countryside, if the children can build a building and make the house beautiful, and marry a beautiful wife, or marry a rich man, the parents feel honored, I feel very relieved and satisfied.

In fact, the requirements of parents in the countryside are not high. Liu Mang also understands his parents. They are married, have a house to live in, the family is safe and sound, and they have some spare money.

If you have a car and a career, your parents will be proud.

"Your daughter is really capable!"

Liu Mang praised Boss Hou, and then smiled like a flower: "Boss, the five-story bungalow is too extravagant! I'm not satisfied with it!"

Viewed from the outside, the house is about 120 square meters on the first floor.Five floors means more than 600 square meters. If the house design is reasonable, the first floor can be used as a suite with three bedrooms and two living rooms.

The house was built by the owner's daughter, which means that the owner's son is not very promising, and he has to take care of the store when he is old, without a son or daughter-in-law.

Liu Mang speculated that Boss Hou may not have a son, but only a daughter.

"I'm not satisfied, the fourth and fifth floors are empty!"

Speaking of this, Boss Hou had a bit of bitterness on his face. The daughter built a building for them to live in as parents. They were really happy in their hearts, but the building was too high, and they were also worried.

Usually, the two elders live in a five-story house, how do they live?
Moreover, they are also old, and their legs and feet are inconvenient. The old woman has rheumatism in her knees and is often uncomfortable. Climbing upstairs is a problem.

"Where are your sons and grandchildren?"

Liu Mang was not in a hurry to move things into the car, but lit up a cigarette and chatted with Boss Hou: "In fact, building a high house is also beneficial. When it develops in the future, it will be rented out, or the road planning will need to be demolished in the future." And so on, there is a lot of compensation, you say."

"Whatever the demolition, this piece of land was left by our ancestors, and it is the root of our countryside. Without land, there is no home. I would rather be poor all my life, and I don't want the land left by my ancestors to be demolished."

Boss Hou seemed a little disgusted with the demolition, "Don't take money too seriously. If you can earn it, you can earn it. If you can't, forget it. The demolition can indeed make a lot of money. How many generations might be rich? One generation? Two generations? Three generations? What about the third generation? If the descendants of the third generation are worthless, they don’t even have the opportunity to farm, and they don’t even have a home of their own, how pitiful it is.”

"Don't just sell the property left by the ancestors to future generations for the sake of money. I never thought that one day when the road is planned, it will be planned by me. I would rather not plan for the rest of my life." The boss sighed, His expression became depressed in an instant.

"Boss, I'm just talking casually, don't be serious."

Boss Hou said that Liu Mang, who was smoking, was said to be stupid.

"Young man, it's really not easy to make money. Everyone hopes to get a windfall, or win 500 million in the lottery. Don't just want to get rich through demolition. Maybe you don't understand it now, but when you reach my age I know." Boss Hou said lightly.

　Ha ha!Ask for a recommendation ticket!
