Du Xiaojuan said:
"Then we'll go this Sunday. At that time, please trouble Yang Dashi to come over early and help us find a good Feng Shui Treasure Land!"
"Sure sure, no problem!"
Yang Dashi answered with a laugh:
"I'll set off at first light then, guarantee I'll be there early!"
Du Xiaojuan said with a smile:
"Alright Yang Dashi, then it's settled!"
Du Xiaojuan hung up Yang Dashi's phone, turned back to look at Wang Dashan, and immediately pulled a long face:
"What's the big deal? I asked you to go do it and you actually weren't willing to go do it!"
Wang Dashan also wore a long face, and coldly threw out a line:
"You agreed on a time then made me go change it, so I don't want Face (reputation) anymore?"
Du Xiaojuan was so infuriated by Wang Dashan's temper she wanted to beat Wang Dashan up!
But in the end she still accepted it, only saying:
"I've already helped you communicate with Yang Dashi's side. Notifying your Second Brother and Third Brother about this matter, don't say I still have to help you go do it!"
Wang Dashan just coldly said:
"This I'll go do myself!"
Although Wang Dashan said this, he didn't call to notify Wang Erhai and Wang Xiaohua that very day.
Instead he kept dragging it out.
Until Du Xiaojuan couldn't bear to watch anymore, came over to urge him, only then did he reluctantly go do it.
Actually in his heart he still had a child's temperament. The more Du Xiaojuan treated him like this, the more rebellious he became, not wanting to do things according to what Du Xiaojuan said.
Until Du Xiaojuan pressed him to where he couldn't delay any longer, only then did he do it according to Du Xiaojuan's requirements.
Now, he called Wang Xiaohua, and then said:
"Everything was done according to what you said, satisfied now?"
Du Xiaojuan was rendered speechless to the point of laughter:
"What do you mean 'done according to what I said'? Wasn't I doing it for your own good? Wang Dashan I'm telling you, if you do this again next time, like a square block of wood that only rolls over after I kick it, don't blame me for losing my temper!"
Wang Dashan however said:
"Okay okay okay, I know. Everything according to what you say. You earn more money, whatever you say is right. Satisfied now?"
Du Xiaojuan heard Wang Dashan's words and was truly sad, truly disappointed.
To the extent that her affection for Wang Dashan had already, unknowingly, been completely worn away in this mode of getting along.
To tell the truth, she now had almost none of the affection she had when they first became Acquaintances. What she had was only Responsibility for this Family, Responsibility for this child Wang Dujin.
At this moment Wang Dashan coldly threw out a line:
"Do you know how much House prices have risen now?"
Du Xiaojuan couldn't help but be Stunned:
"What do you mean by that?"
Wang Dashan then said:
"I was originally Qiang Lou-ing quite well, but you took back control of the economic authority. Now House prices are rising so fiercely, yet I didn't continue Qiang Lou-ing, instead becoming a stay-at-home dad at Home. Do you know how much less money I've earned?"
As it turned out, this was the most Important Reason for Wang Dashan's heart full of complaints against Du Xiaojuan.
Ever since Wang Dashan willfully caused that major Car Accident with 7 dead and 11 injured in Shangou Village, Du Xiaojuan helped Wang Dashan wipe his butt clean, then took back all of Wang Dashan's economic authority, making Wang Dashan squat at Home as a full-time stay-at-home dad. Originally at the start Wang Dashan was still willing to follow Du Xiaojuan's arrangements.
After all, that huge Car Accident with 7 dead and 11 injured, in his own heart he also recognized he was the chief culprit. He harbored Guilt, he needed Du Xiaojuan to come out and help him settle everything.
But as time passed, this matter gradually faded. And Wang Dashan, bored out of his mind, often paid attention to the Real Estate industry. As a result, recently House prices have been climbing steadily. Many Real Estate people in his Moments have earned bucketloads, while he Wang Dashan could only stay at Home playing toys with the kid.
In human nature, there is a huge weakness.
That is: what originally could have been earned, but wasn't earned, makes a person feel that is a loss.
Wang Dashan naturally thought this way too.
Although Du Xiaojuan didn't sell the properties he had purchased earlier, but kept holding them, this made him unable to continue expanding his Qiang Lou scope, which also meant earning a lot less money. If this isn't a loss, what is?
So Wang Dashan grew angrier the more he thought, and the angrier he got, the more dissatisfied he became with Du Xiaojuan.
"So, you think your initial Gao Lv Qiang Lou was right?"
Du Xiaojuan frowned, questioning Wang Dashan.
Wang Dashan just coldly said:
"Right or wrong, the market's Reaction has already explained everything. Hu Wanjia and those Qiang Lou Ke used even higher leverage than me, and now they've long since earned bucketloads!"
Du Xiaojuan said:
"I admit I didn't expect House prices would rise to this level. But I can tell you clearly, Wang Dashan, this should be Real Estate's final carnival. In a few years, the Real Estate industry should start moving sideways, even going down!"
Wang Dashan however treated Du Xiaojuan's statement with utter disdain:
"Every year there are people singing doom for Real Estate. How many years has it been? Year after year singing doom, year after year rising. Look back at our Country's economy all the way here — has there been a time House prices dropped? Even the 08 economic crisis didn't make them drop, okay! With the Country backing it, what are you Afraid of?"
Du Xiaojuan was momentarily unable to Refute Wang Dashan's argument, because her research into Real Estate wasn't deep. Only her Intuition told her, with Birth population decreasing, fewer and fewer people to take over, the housing market would naturally follow and go down.
This is a Necessary fact, not shifting due to national regulation.
After all, no one is taking over the properties anymore, yet you insist on pushing house prices higher—the economy will only die faster!
"I'm just going by my intuition, feeling that we shouldn't use high leverage to flip houses. I still say what I said before: I wasn't against you flipping houses before, I was against your high leverage. Now, those houses you bought earlier—I'm still holding them, aren't I? Wait another year or two, and it'll be time to sell them off."
Wang Dashan disagreed with Du Xiaojuan's statement:
"You do e-commerce, and you come to tell me, someone in real estate, what to do? Where do you get your confidence?"
Du Xiaojuan asked:
"Then what do you want?"
Wang Dashan then stated his demand:
"Give me a sum of money, and I'll keep flipping houses."
"Are you crazy? House prices are already very high. Entering the market to flip houses now—do you know how risky that is?" Du Xiaojuan said with a surprised face.
Wang Dashan said instead:
"Anyway, I can't stay at home anymore. If I keep staying here, I feel like I'm about to get moldy. I must do something, otherwise you'll think I'm a good-for-nothing. I want to prove to you that I can also achieve great things! I'm no worse than you!"
Du Xiaojuan looked at Wang Dashan, her expression complex, and did not immediately speak to state her position.
Wang Dashan said again:
"Before, our son was still very young and hard to take care of. Now he can already walk and say simple words. He can be completely entrusted to my mother and Kang Yi to take care of together. I'm a grown man—I can't be stuck at home forever. I need to go do something. This is my demand!"
Du Xiaojuan finally relented:
"Fine. Wait until you go back and move the grave, then we'll carefully discuss the matter of work."
