Chapter 1259 Demolition of the old ancestral hall

The driver was very good at chatting and said, "That's right! How can I sell such a good house? It's in a good location. There are markets, squares and parks nearby. You can't find such a good place even with a lantern."

Father Xue echoed: "Yes! If you don't need to live in it, you can keep it. I can't bear to sell it."

The driver was afraid of being left out, so he quickly asked: "Old man, are you going to Lao Yuan Road? You should be a native of the Imperial Capital, right?"

"Yes." Father Xue said: "A local old man from the old imperial capital."

The driver laughed and said: "I really envy you locals! Old man, do you have an old house on Lao Yuan Road? I heard that a small shabby house there can now be sold for several million! Short In just a few years, 100 million and 100 million are added up, rising almost every month. Especially after the villa area and several courtyard houses were built, people in the entire imperial capital went crazy for it! No one cared about it before The old shabby house, in a blink of an eye, becomes the most high-end demolition tenant in the imperial capital, and anyone who walks out becomes a multi-millionaire!"

"Oh." Father Xue pretended to be dumbfounded and asked, "Is it so good? The place used to be very old and the roads were small. Except for a few courtyard houses outside, which were barely beautiful, the rest were shabby low houses. They don’t even look the same!”

The driver sighed several times and said, "If I had known this, I should have spent the RMB [-] saved a few years ago to buy two shabby houses. Now I am a multi-millionaire!"

Father Xue laughed loudly and said: "You are not a prophet, how can you predict the future! In the past few years, it was possible to buy a shabby house with more than [-] yuan, but it was not possible to buy a large courtyard house outside."

"One room is okay!" the driver said bitterly: "If you put all your money in the bank, it will be of no use except the interest that is not enough to cover your meals. The money left in the bank will depreciate year by year, but the house price is a My energy soared. It was okay if I didn’t save money in the bank, but the more I saved, the less I could afford to buy a house.”

Dad Xue said "oh" twice and said the truth: "The imperial capital has developed too fast in the past 20 years. We old imperial capital people are locals and have a small advantage. After all, we have owned real estate and land here in advance. Foreigners Successful people have a lot of money on hand, so they naturally don't care how high the house price is, they can afford it anyway. It is really not easy for working people, after all, it costs money to live and support a family. The speed of making money is far slower than that of soaring house prices. Speed, so it’s quite difficult.”

"Old man, your words have touched my heart." The driver sighed deeply and whispered: "It is really not easy to rent a house and support a family. Birds need a nest, otherwise no female bird will be willing to do so. Just lay eggs for it to live. It’s the same with people. If you don’t have a nest, you’ll always feel uneasy. Every time I’m busy going back to my hometown during the Chinese New Year, I’m most afraid of receiving a call from the landlord, either evicting you or raising the house price. I have to spend the New Year. I’m so scared!”

Father Xue chuckled and whispered: "It's not easy, it's not easy."

The driver stopped and waited for the red light, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "When I went back to my hometown, I told my parents that the old urban area in the imperial capital was being demolished, and every household was at least a millionaire. A small shabby house, It can be sold for more than 100 million. My parents don’t believe it at all, no matter what they say, I can only laugh and laugh helplessly.”

Dad Xue thought for a while and said, "If it were 20 years ago, I wouldn't believe it either."

The driver put the gear in gear and stepped on the accelerator, and asked: "Old man, you must have an old house in the imperial capital, right? The place where you lived when you were young is now an old house. Is it included in the demolition category? I heard that the old district is now included It will be a demolition zone, it only takes a few years, sooner or later. Even if you are not a millionaire now, you will definitely be in the future."

Dad Xue, who had become a multi-millionaire many years ago, was not happy at all. He sighed: "This is the general trend and cannot be changed. My old house was later converted into a family ancestral hall. The ancestral hall was indeed included in the demolition area. I My cousin and all my relatives are very sad.”

This was announced more than two months ago, and the large ancestral hall would have to be demolished by next spring at the latest.

"Wouldn't it be better to live in the old house in a brand-new and bright suite?" The driver was very envious and said, "If it were changed into a luxurious suite, it wouldn't be great!" Xue's father looked sad and explained: "That's our whole family. The ancestral hall belongs to all of our descendants, 23 households in total. According to the arrangement of the neighborhood committee, some compensation will be paid based on the construction area. I am the oldest person in our family, so I will receive it at that time, and it will be divided into 23 equal parts, one for each Every household gets a share. The big ancestral hall is gone, and I feel so empty inside. It’s really uncomfortable.”

The driver couldn't help but comfort him: "Old man, you are wrong to think that way! Society is constantly developing, and there is too little land in new urban areas, so we can only renovate old urban areas. This is the trend of development, and nothing can stop it. You can’t make a fuss... I guess other people won’t compromise, after all, what a good thing this is!”

"This is the general trend. There is no point in making trouble, but it is definitely troublesome." Father Xue whispered: "I asked my daughter to think of a way to see if she can fight for it."

After everyone in the Xue family learned the news, they specially gathered for a short meeting to discuss what to do.

Naturally, everyone is reluctant to part with the old ancestral hall, but many young people are even more reluctant to part with the huge demolition money.Based on the spacious area of ​​​​the old ancestral hall, it can be divided into more than 1000 million. Including the second-floor attic in some places, the total is over [-] million.

If you break it down carefully, one family can probably get about 100 million.For many people, this is a huge sum of money, so most descendants of the Xue family agreed to follow the general trend of demolition.

No matter how reluctant the older generation is to give up, they cannot go against the trend. No matter how reluctant they are to give up, they can only endure and conform to the younger generation.

Xue's father knew that his daughter had close contacts with other real estate developers in the imperial capital, so he asked her to find a way to see if she could try to keep a small courtyard house to enshrine the memorial tablets of the Xue family's ancestors.

Xue Ling agreed without saying a word, saying that she would do her best to find a solution.

The old man believed in his daughter's ability the most. Although there was no definite answer yet, he believed that Xue Ling would not let him down.

The driver pointed to the front and explained: "Old man, there is still a short section of 'Laoyuan Road' you want to go to. Go around this street and it will be right ahead."

"Oh." Father Xue said warmly: "Don't be in a hurry, drive slowly."

The driver chuckled and asked: "Uncle, you should have heard of the 'Sanxinyuan' over there, right? A very popular TV program recently filmed that yard - it couldn't be too beautiful! The newspaper the day before yesterday I also specially reported on this garden, saying that it is the largest courtyard building in the imperial capital at present, and also adds some garden designs from Jiangnan water towns. It is the work of an international master architect. It has first-class design and first-class workmanship. It is a priceless architectural masterpiece!"

"Oh." Dad Xue said, "I just want to go to this yard."

"Haha!" The driver couldn't help laughing and said: "Many people like to look inside when passing by, but this house is a private residence and is not open to the outside at will. I heard that the owner of the garden is the big boss of Ronghua Mall. I heard that the owner of the garden is the big boss of Ronghua Mall. If the designer hadn't wanted to take pictures of his works for competition, the host would have refused! The newspaper only took pictures of certain corners, not the entire garden. Even if you were interested, you wouldn't be able to go in and take a look, at most. I can take a look outside."
