Liu Xincheng put away his angry expression and nodded, "Everything is arranged. I'll call them now and tell them to go straight to the orchard!"
"Alright, my dad and I will head back first. We still need to take the driver there to guide them." Liu Yifeng then left with his father.
On the way back, Liu Chunsheng couldn't help but sigh, "How did they get so lucky? They just bought a house and now it's being demolished. Isn't that like pie falling from the sky?"
"Dad, don't you suspect they knew something insider information? Aren't you angry about that?" Liu Yifeng asked.
Although the information wasn't provided by insiders, it was calculated by Tongtong, which led them to buy the house there.
It was as if he had known the news in advance, otherwise, he wouldn't have bought the house there, which was why he didn't refute Liu Xincheng's words.
Liu Chunsheng shook his head, "Whether they knew some insider information in advance or not, the houses were bought voluntarily by those people.
Moreover, the reason they bought the houses was definitely because they felt it was worth it, and even sold them with the mindset that they had made a profit.
If they had been cautious from the start and not tried to take advantage of such small gains, they wouldn't have sold their houses.
Since they sold their houses, they should bear the corresponding responsibility."
After hearing his father's words, Liu Yifeng realized that his father, despite appearing simple and honest, was a man who understood principles. He couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
Liu Chunsheng smiled, "I'm just speaking the truth. Liu Xincheng said that because his relatives are the ones who suffered losses. If it were outsiders, you'd see if he'd still be fighting for justice, and would only wish he had bought a house there himself!"
Liu Yifeng looked around to make sure no one was watching, then whispered to his father, "Dad, there's something I've never told you.
Actually, the group of people that Liu Xincheng and his son were talking about, it was me!"
"What..." Liu Chunsheng exclaimed, then quickly recovered and whispered, "You mean, you bought houses there?"
Liu Yifeng nodded, "Yes, I'm the one who bought twenty houses!"
After hearing his son's words, Liu Chunsheng was completely flustered, speaking with a stutter, "You... you really... bought twenty?"
"Yes, twenty in total!" Liu Yifeng replied seriously.
Liu Chunsheng gasped, "That's a lot of money!"
"Not that much, just about twenty-five million!"
As soon as Liu Yifeng finished speaking, Liu Chunsheng quickly covered his mouth, "Keep your voice down. Don't reveal your wealth, lest someone overhears!"
"There's no one here, Dad, who can hear!" Liu Yifeng smiled and pried his father's hand away.
His father's startled reactions were more likely to arouse suspicion!
"Fortunately, you didn't admit just now that you were the one who bought houses there, or Liu Dabao would have fought with you!" Liu Chunsheng said with a sense of relief.
Liu Yifeng explained, "I didn't say it because I was afraid he would fight me. He can't beat me anyway. I just didn't want his father and son to cause trouble for you after I left!"
"You're still pretending to be tough. What's Liu Dabao's build like, and what's yours?
He's as strong as an ox. Two of you might not be able to beat him.
Please don't mention this again, just pretend it never happened.
And next time his aunt comes, try not to go out if possible. If she recognizes you, there'll be trouble!"
Liu Yifeng didn't want to cause himself trouble. He nodded, "Dad, I understand. You might not know, but it wasn't just me who bought houses there. Kai Chen also bought two houses with me and made over two million!"
Hearing that Kai Chen had also made money, Liu Chunsheng was overjoyed, "That's great! But you must remind him to come back as little as possible in the future and avoid encountering Liu Dabao's aunt.
But speaking of which, why did you suddenly think of buying houses there? It wasn't because you knew about insider information, was it?"
He couldn't believe his son would go and buy houses without knowing anything.
But he didn't know any leaders. Who could have told him such confidential information?
Liu Yifeng smiled mysteriously, "Actually, Tongtong told me. He calculated that the area would be demolished, so I used all my savings to buy houses.
The reason I bought them in two installments was because I couldn't come up with that much money at once!"
Thinking of the all-knowing Tongtong, Liu Chunsheng's face lit up, "Our grandson is so smart, he can even calculate this.
Will our family be able to get rich by buying houses in the future?"
"Such acts of revealing heavenly secrets are punishable. Tongtong had a headache last time because he told someone about this matter."
Liu Chunsheng immediately said, "Then we must never ask Tongtong about these heavenly secrets in the future. We don't need that kind of wealth; Tongtong's health is the most important thing!"
Liu Yifeng was fortunate that his father wasn't a greedy person and prioritized him and Tongtong in everything.
He smiled and nodded, "I understand. Let's go back quickly. I'll teach you how to operate the drone in the yard later, and then the task of spraying nutrients and growth agents on the fruit will be yours."
"Okay, leave it to me. You go about your business!"
Upon returning home, Da Hei and Da Bai started circling Liu Yifeng again, seemingly wanting him to play with them.
Seeing this, Liu Chunsheng said, "They haven't eaten well these past few days you were away, and they've been listless. I thought they were sick.
But when they saw you at noon, they ate heartily. I realized they missed you."
Hearing this, Liu Yifeng was deeply touched. He commanded Da Hei and Da Bai, "Da Hei, Da Bai, sit!"
The two cheerful dogs immediately sat down properly.
"Lie down!" Liu Yifeng followed up.
Then the two dogs obediently lay on the ground, their eyebrows furrowed, looking very wronged.
Liu Yifeng squatted down and gently stroked their foreheads, saying, "The little master and I went out for something important, and it wasn't convenient to bring you.
So, during these days we're away, you must listen to Grandpa obediently, eat and drink as usual. When we return, I hope to see that you've grown a bit. Can you do that?"
"Do you think they can understand you when you say so much to them?" Liu Chunsheng asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, Da Hei and Da Bai nodded in unison.
Liu Chunsheng's pupils widened in shock at this sight.
He knew these two dogs were intelligent, but he didn't expect them to be so understanding.
What Liu Yifeng had just said might not even be understood by ordinary two or three-year-old children.
Yet, Da Hei and Da Bai not only understood but also responded. Their intelligence was exceptionally high!
Seeing his father's astonished expression, Liu Yifeng couldn't help but laugh, "Dad, these two dogs can't speak, but they're very human-like.
So, if you feel lonely or bored when you're alone at home, you can talk to them. They'll respond to you.
You don't know, yesterday during the filming of the program, when they showed Tongtong's story, they were also in the frame.
Countless people liked them, and some wanted to buy them from me at a high price. The highest offer was twenty thousand!"
Hearing that someone wanted to buy them, Da Hei and Da Bai whimpered fearfully and looked nervously at Liu Yifeng, afraid they would hear that their owner had agreed to sell them for a high price.
Liu Yifeng looked at the two little ones in front of him and comforted them, "Don't worry, let alone twenty thousand, I wouldn't sell you for two hundred thousand.
From now on, you are part of the family. You must guard the house for Grandpa, understand?"
The two dogs, who were still nervous, leaped up excitedly after hearing that their owner wouldn't sell them, wagging their tails.
"Dogs this intelligent really shouldn't be sold!" Liu Chunsheng agreed.
"I said I wouldn't sell them, but those people insisted. If they don't sell them, they'll sell their puppies."
Liu Chunsheng didn't understand for a moment, "Ours are male dogs, where would puppies come from?"
Liu Yifeng smiled and explained, "It's the female dogs they mate with, and the puppies they give birth to!"
Liu Chunsheng then realized, "So that's what you mean. But Da Bai is still young, so she probably won't go into heat so soon. I don't know about Da Hei. He runs around the village all day. I wonder if he's hooked up with any female dogs!"
