Chapter 1167 1169 [Selling ancestral property]
In addition to instructing techniques in the pharmaceutical factory and teaching Wing Chun in the martial arts hall, the rest of Xiang Nan's energy is basically devoted to his wife and children.
In addition to eating, sleeping, and chatting with my wife, I also accompany her shopping, attending receptions, and dances.
Xiang Nan is now a well-known figure in Macau.
One, his boxing skills are superb, one against a hundred, really amazing; two, his Renji Dan has miraculous effects in treating cholera. Because of his free medical treatment and medicine, thousands of people in Lingnan survived. And this also made him famous, not only as a miracle doctor, but also as a great benevolent person.
Because of this, the local people in Macau have associated with him one after another, and many of them are famous people.
Although the local people in Macau live in poverty, suffering from pornography, gambling and drugs, the oppression of Portuguese colonists, and the blackmail of gang forces, the life of the upper class is still extravagant and dreamy.
Like the Fu family and the Gao family who operate the gambling industry, they monopolize the gaming industry in Macau, and because of this, they are making a lot of money and making a lot of money. Incoming wealth is like the flowing water of the Yangtze River, and losing wealth is like wind and clouds. Ill-gotten wealth comes quickly, and it doesn't hurt to spend it.
Therefore, the high society in Macau often has receptions and dances.
And Zhang Yongcheng came from a famous family, after the Minister of Western Affairs Zhang Yinheng. Because of this, she likes the life of the upper class very much, is very adaptable, and is very comfortable.
This can be seen from "Ip Man 3", she likes to dance.
Xiang Nan knew what she was thinking, so whenever there was an invitation to a reception or dance, he would take her there and happily dance with her, which made Zhang Yongcheng very happy.
…
"Husband, how can you dance?" Zhang Yongcheng couldn't help being surprised when he saw that Xiang Nan danced so well.
"I know you like to dance, so in order to avoid being timid, you secretly asked someone to teach you." Xiang Nan explained with a smile.
"My husband, you are so kind to me." Zhang Yongcheng smiled happily after hearing this.
Before, Ye Wen only cared about practicing martial arts, learning martial arts with friends, and didn't particularly care about her and her son. She rarely pays attention to what she and her son think, do, and like.
But in recent months, he seems to have opened up, and he is by her and her son's side every day. She is no longer as obsessed with martial arts as before, which really makes her happy.
"You are my wife, if you are not good to you, who is good to you." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
In the movie, Zhang Yongcheng can be called a good wife. Although she doesn't like her husband fighting, she has never stopped her, and she still supports her silently behind her back.
With Ye Wen, we share weal and woe, whether we are poor or rich, we have no complaints. It can really be said that he is virtuous and virtuous, gentle and considerate, what more can a husband ask for if he has a wife like this.
It's a pity that although Ye Wen is devoted to Zhang Yongcheng, he doesn't take concubines, and doesn't recruit tricks, but he still cares too little for Zhang Yongcheng. So that when it is lost, it is too late to regret.
So, Xiang Nan wants to make up for her and treat her better. This made Zhang Yongcheng naturally very happy.
…
Xiang Nan also carefully taught his son Ye Zhun.
In the movie, Ip Man has never been very concerned about his son's study and life, so the relationship between father and son was once very tense.
In comparison, Xiang Nan has to pay more attention to the cultivation of the next generation.
Not only do homework with him every day, but also English, Chinese, mathematics, history, politics, geography, and even piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, are willing to teach his son.
In addition, I often play with my son, play games with him, and buy toys for him. Ye Zhun was coaxed to get closer and closer to him, and the relationship between father and son was very happy.
In the third and sixth years, Xiang Nan took the time to go back to the mountain, planning to sell all the Ye family mansion and the fertile land of the Ye family.
His behavior was unanimously opposed by the Ye clan.
Because in their view, selling ancestral property is the work of prodigal sons.
The Ye family mansion has a history of 60 years, and it was built by Ye Wen's great-grandfather. The Ye family's fields are also the ancestors of the past generations. They have been hard-working and diligent. They bought one acre by one acre, but now they have to sell it. It is really bad.
"Ah Wen, your pharmaceutical factory is running well now, and you are not short of money, why do you want to sell your ancestral property?"
"Do you know what your great-grandfather said when this house was built back then. He hoped that the descendants of the Ye family could live and thrive in this mansion. Now you want to sell it, how can you be sorry Grandpa?"
"Ah Wen, the ancestral property can't be sold. It can't be sold even if it's a big deal, absolutely can't be sold."
The elders of the Ye family all stopped him.
"Uncles and brothers, there is a reason for me to sell my house and ancestral property. Please listen to me." Xiang Nan waved his hands and explained, "I have already established a foundation in Macau, and I can't take care of it here. In order to avoid It is abandoned, so I have to sell it. If my uncles and brothers are willing to take over, I am willing to give you a half discount."
Hearing what he said, the clan elders who were strongly opposed to it immediately changed their expressions.
Buying the Ye family's mansion and the fertile land of the Ye family at a 50% discount is a great deal. Now the good paddy field on the mountain is 90 silver dollars per mu; the medium paddy field is 60 silver dollars per mu.
Xiang Nan holds as many as 560 mu of paddy fields, worth about 40,000 silver dollars. If you fold it in half, it will be 20,000 silver dollars. If anyone is willing to take over, he will pick up a bargain of 20,000 yuan for nothing.
Such a big temptation, no one will not care.
For a while, those who originally wanted to persuade Xiang Nan to keep his ancestral property changed their minds one after another.
"Awen, are you really willing to sell it at a 50% discount?"
"Ah Q, will all the fields, including this mansion, be sold at a 50% discount?"
"You can count on what you say?! Will it not change again?"
Everyone asked.
Xiang Nan nodded, "It's hard to follow a gentleman's word, but I, Ye Wen, will never go back on my word."
This house, if he doesn't sell it now, it will be occupied by Orientals in the future. Even if the Japanese were expelled after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the mansion might not return to him, and it might be taken over by the Nationalist Mansion in the name of adverse production.
Just like in "Ip Man 2", even if Ip Man takes back his ancestral house, he will not be so poor that he can open a martial arts gym on the rooftop. The whole family is worried that there is not enough money to spend.
So sell as much as you can now, and take back a little bit.
Sold in half, not only to block the mouths of the tribesmen, so as not to keep them from babbling, but also to get money back faster.
After all, the mountain will fall in another year, and he doesn't have much time to ink.
Hearing what he said, the clan elders couldn't help showing joy, and they were all moved by the Ye family mansion and the fertile land of the Ye family.
…
"Uncles and brothers, I will only stay in Fushan for seven days. Anyone who is interested in buying, please come to the inn to find me. First come, first served." Xiang Nan said again, "After this time, I will return to Macau. After all There are still many things over there. At that time, if anyone wants to buy it, they will have to find me over there, and the price will not be the current price."
After speaking, he got up and left the ancestral hall.
After he left, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and then they all went home one after another to raise funds and prepare to make a fortune.
