Hearing Du Jianyang's question, Li Yiyang shook his head slightly. Even he, an aboriginal living here, didn't know about this, let alone himself.
"I think you still need to tell your grandparents about this first, maybe they know about it."
After hearing what he said, Du Jianyang stood up slowly, as if he had done some mental preparation, then stood up and walked into Grandpa Du and Grandma Du's house.
Not long after, I heard the surprised voices of two old people coming from inside the house, and then Grandma Du started crying.
After a while, the two of them walked out of the room, and a moment later they knocked on Du Kangjian's door.
Seeing his elderly parents so sad, Du Kangjian felt extremely sorry.
He plopped down and knelt down to the second elder, "I'm sorry, parents, but my son is unfilial! He even sold the place where you raised your children!"
Hearing what he said, even Li Yiyang, who was standing aside, felt a little sad. He just hoped that Du Kangjian would really realize his mistake.
After a while, the two old men shook their heads and smiled.
"Okay, the two of us have finally figured it out. You are our son. If you do such a thing, we have not educated you properly."
"Since the house has been sold, forget it. What Yangyang said makes sense. We don't need to spend more money to buy this house back."
"Anyway, he is going to work in Qingcheng City. This child has never left our side since he was a child. Why don't we go with him?"
"When you get there, find a job, be a decent person, and never get involved in these things again in the future."
Hearing his father's words, Du Kangjian nodded solemnly, then stretched out three fingers and swore an oath.
"I will never get involved in gambling again, and I will definitely find a serious job. If I touch these things again, I will be struck by lightning!"
Although this is a bad thing for this family, it also means some changes.
After settling this matter, they finally felt a little more at ease. Grandpa Du and Grandma Du also went to busy cooking, while Du Kangjian followed to help.
Du Jianyang walked towards Li Yiyang, "Brother Li, I asked my grandparents just now."
"The two of them didn't know why the other party paid three times the price to buy this house, so they didn't say anything more."
"Anyway, this matter has been resolved. I hope my uncle will stop gambling and be able to have a serious job."
Li Yiyang patted him on the shoulder, "Yes, I think his confession just now was quite sincere, but I wonder if you have a backyard here?"
Du Jianyang nodded, "We have villages like ours, and we usually grow fruits and vegetables in our backyards."
"Actually, this place was originally a bungalow. Although my brother-in-law was gambling and not doing his job, he later made some money."
"After he made money, he converted this house into the building it is now. In the backyard, there are only some vegetables grown by my grandma."
"If you want to take a look at the back, I can take you there, but the back there is full of dirt and it's not very clean."
Li Yiyang shook his head, "It doesn't matter. I just discovered that you may have a backyard here. I think your grandma seems to go directly to the garden to cook."
"In this way, if this house is sold, your yard will also belong to others."
Du Jianyang nodded, "That's for sure, but even with the yard, this house is not worth 1.5 million."
"It's just a small yard. If it were built with a few more houses, it might still be worth some money, but now it's just growing some vegetables."
As he spoke, he led Li Yiyang towards the backyard. At this time, the vegetables in the garden were ripe this season.
But Li Yiyang's eyes were not on the vegetables in the garden, but on the tree behind.
I saw him taking a few steps closer, observing the tree for a while, and then studying it carefully.
Then Li Yiyang showed a smile on his lips and shook his head slightly.
He said that people these days have no money and cannot afford to be early. It is impossible for someone to spend three times the price and buy a yard inexplicably for no reason.
Seeing him standing here, Du Jianyang looked a little confused, "Brother Li, is there anything special about this tree?"
Li Yiyang shook his head, "Has this been planted when you were a child?"
"It seems that my grandparents said it existed when they were young. This tree is nearly a hundred years old."
"It's a pity that it has been sold to other people now. Speaking of how they miss this house, perhaps they can't miss it more than this tree."
"My grandma said that when they were young, they would often eat and chat under this tree. This tree also gave them a lot of memories."
Having said this, he couldn't help but feel regretful and let out a long sigh.
Although Du Jianyang firmly believes that with his current efforts and talents, he will definitely be able to let his grandparents live a good life again.
It's just that they have to leave their hometown and the environment where they grew up. It's really sad to think about it.
After he finished speaking, Li Yiyang shook his head slightly and said nothing more.
"Let's go! After I finish taking care of things here, I'll go back to Qingcheng City and show you a house with a small courtyard."
Hearing his words, Du Jianyang was extremely moved, "Thank you, Brother Li. After I make money, I will never forget your great kindness to me and will pay it back to you!"
Li Yiyang smiled and said, "I didn't do these things to get your gratitude. I know you have talent."
"Use your skills to your advantage! Qu's Jewelry Store may be waiting for you to flourish in the future."
Soon the two of them entered the house, and Li Yiyang didn't say anything more.
The tree just now is golden nanmu. It is precisely because it has a history of hundreds of years that its price has increased.
It's just that none of the Du family knew about it, and there was no need for him to tell it. Telling it would only cause trouble for them.
Although the other party made a profit, for the Du family, this is not a bad thing.
However, Li Yiyang felt a little sad in his heart. The Du family had missed an opportunity to make a fortune.
If they could recognize the value of this tree, maybe Du Kangjian wouldn't have to gamble at the beginning.
But some things are just like this, and you won’t know until they happen.
