After the Republic of China

Chapter 973 Chaos
Now that Shao Lanxiang is involved with her son and has temporarily returned to her family, she has become much more thoughtful.

Everyone was satisfied with her change. In this era, as the wife of a general in a war zone, it would not be wrong to do nothing.

On the other end of the phone that Shao Yunshi heard, her aunt was coaxing her little cousin not to scratch things. One can imagine how gentle and how irritable her aunt was.

Thinking about this, her depressed mood improved a lot, and her tone became lighter, "It's indeed a bit chaotic here. But, we are all staying in the concession, so it won't be a problem."

Shao Lanxiang thought that the concession was still very safe, so she felt relieved and said, "Don't worry about whether the business is good or bad. We are not short of money anyway. By the way, I heard that your grandfather's family is moving to Hong Kong?"

This must have been said by sister Lingzhu. Mom and the others treat Lingzhu as their own daughter, so they must have informed sister Lingzhu about such a big thing as moving.

After figuring it out, Shao Yunshi smiled and said, "Yes, but grandpa and his family are reluctant to go to Hong Kong immediately, and they will probably stay in Shanghai for a while."

Shao Lanxiang was happy to hear this. "If they stayed in Shanghai, I would feel more at ease. I'm always worried about you being alone."

Shao Yunshi's eyes turned and she asked, "Aunt, the housing prices in Shanghai have dropped sharply now. Do you want to buy one?"

Shao Lanxiang knew that her husband had some money, which was given by her father. Although she didn't know this until some time later, she was not angry, but only felt grateful for her father's love.

After thinking for a while, she said, "I'll discuss this with your uncle. If we want to buy it, you can help Zhang, okay?"

Shao Yunshi also knew that her grandfather had given money to her uncle, so she did not tell her aunt that she was paying, and only asked, "If you want to buy it, where do you want to buy it?"

Shao Lanxiang treated her niece as her own daughter, so she was naturally not polite and said directly: "I'll buy one near you. If there is none, I'll try to buy one in the concession so that we can all get along better."

Buying near my home, Shao Yunshi thought about her annoying grandmother and was scared. She decided not to buy, "I'm afraid it's hard to buy near my home."

Shao Lanxiang thought about the layout of the concession. Her niece's house was full of luxury homes, and no one would sell their house for money, so she said, "That's right, so try to buy one in the concession."

Whether Shao Lanxiang's compromise was based on reality or out of consideration for the future relationship between her mother and niece, it was a good thing for Shao Yunshi and everyone.

Shao Yunshi smiled happily, "Aunt, from what you said, I'm afraid my uncle will agree?"

Shao Lanxiang was also happy when she heard this, "Yeah, we are talking about the excitement, but your uncle is still a bit confused."

Shao Yunshi knew that her uncle was a government official and there were some things he could not control.

"Aunt, don't worry. I'll watch over here for you and you can talk to uncle over there." Shao Yunshi was afraid that her aunt would make things difficult for her uncle.

Shao Lanxiang stopped her son's naughty hands and scolded him with a smile: "Girl, how could I be so ignorant? Okay, just look for a house, I'll let you know when I have any news."

Perhaps because her little cousin was too naughty, Shao Yunshi had to hang up the phone with her aunt in a hurry.

The two of them did not avoid everyone in their conversation.

Luo Cheng first said: "It's really not urgent to buy a house at this time. Wait, maybe the house price will go down."

Xiaodong's eyes flickered a few times, "Senior Sister, do you think we should buy some more houses?"

Luo Cheng and his family all have houses, so they think it is unnecessary. "Why buy so many houses? Do you think the price of houses can still increase?"

Luo Cheng’s words stunned everyone.

Bu Erlao said, "Miss, do you think it will really rise again?"

Shao Yunshi did not study economics in college, but she had managed household finances in her previous life, so she did know a thing or two about it.

After thinking for a while, she said, "You can buy it, but don't be in a hurry. Just look at it first."

Xiaodong was shocked. "Senior sister, what you mean is that the housing prices can really go up."

Bu Erdao said: "Everything has its ups and downs. House prices will naturally rise, it just depends on when." This time difference determines whether it is worth buying.

Everyone in the room knows this except Xiaodong.

"Then, should we still buy it?" Xiaodong asked anxiously.

Luo Cheng laughed and said, "Whether you want to buy it or not, do you have the money?"

Xiaodong was stunned by the question and said awkwardly: "I don't have money, but my senior sister does."

Shao Yunshi laughed and said, "If Xiaodong wants to buy a house, I can lend you money."

Xiaodong was very happy now, and said proudly: "Look, now I have money."

Luo Cheng was very convinced, "You are awesome."

Shao Yunshi was not joking. She glanced at the people in the room and said, "If you all want to buy a house to store, just tell me."

"Ah?!" Luo Cheng shouted directly, "There's also a share for us."

Bu Er kicked his nephew with a smile, "What are you yelling about? When has the young lady ever treated us differently?"

After Luo Cheng got excited, he scratched his head and said, "That's right, but I don't plan to buy it. I just want to follow the lady."

Bu Er nodded in agreement, "Miss, we are not buying a house, we just need to follow you closely."

Shao Yunshi was very generous to his subordinates, offering them very good salaries and benefits, and everyone had some savings.

People like them, who own houses and have high salaries in Shanghai, are so envious.

According to Uncle Ge, they have fallen into a blessed place and there is no need to have any other extravagant hopes.

Shao Yunshi really wanted to pull everyone together, but seeing how they were, she didn't say much. Anyway, if she had it, everyone had it too.

After a few small talk, Shao Yunshi arranged the task, "It's chaotic outside, it's best for girls not to go out. So, Luo Cheng, you can go out with someone and take a look every day."

Luo Cheng said hurriedly: "I go to the nursery every day to help with the flower arrangement. I don't need to cooperate with anyone."

Shao Yunshi shook her head, "No, it's not safe to be alone. Besides, you should go out of the city."

At this point, Shao Yunshi became worried. "Gang members have been very active recently. It won't work if there is no one guarding the suburbs."

Bu Er said: "That's right, I mentioned it to my elder brother, but he didn't care."

Uncle Bu Yi probably has great confidence in his abilities, so he doesn't care.

Shao Yunshi said directly: "Well, I will only keep Asen and Feihong by my side, and the rest of you can go to Uncle Bu Yi's place."

House prices plummeted, businesses went bankrupt, and debt collectors and debt collectors were everywhere.

Bu Er thought of the chaos on the street and sighed, "That's true. But the young lady has to say this to the eldest brother in person."

Luo Cheng pouted and said, "That's right, my master is very stubborn now."

Shao Yunshi laughed and shook her head, "Uncle Bu Yi feels that he has not made much contribution by staying in the nursery for a long time, so he insists on managing all the affairs by himself."

Xiaodong thought about what his mother and father said every day, and nodded in agreement: "That's right. Now that my mother is alone at home taking care of my younger brother, I feel bad about it."

Bu Er sighed, "Brother feels guilty towards Miss, so he wants to do more."
