At that moment, there was a knock at the door.
Lin Ping turned around and went to open the door. She saw an elderly man dressed formally and exuding an air of affluence standing at the entrance. "Who are you?"
"I'm here to discuss purchasing your house," Yang Housekeeper said.
Lin Ping's eyes lit up, and she quickly ushered Yang Housekeeper inside. "Dad! The head of the household, come out quickly, someone's here to buy our house."
Li Xing, Li Yuan, and Li Old Man heard this and all ran out from the hall, seeing Lin Ping leading an old man inside.
Yang Housekeeper glanced around disdainfully. This courtyard was truly filthy; how could the young master consider buying this house?
"Are you here to buy our house?" Li Xing approached Yang Housekeeper, his facial muscles quivering slightly with excitement. When his wife mentioned it earlier, he didn't quite believe it, after all, their house wasn't worth that much money.
"Yes," Yang Housekeeper nodded nonchalantly. He naturally had to carry out the young master's instructions.
"You're really here to buy our house?!" Li Old Man exclaimed in response, pinching his thigh hard. He felt like he was dreaming.
"Move out today, and ten million will be in your account immediately, with an additional one million as compensation," Yang Housekeeper said bluntly, as he always did.
The people present were dazed by the mention of ten million. They never imagined such good fortune could befall them.
"We'll move out right now. Old One and Old Two, go pack your things quickly," Li Old Man made the decision immediately, afraid that the opportunity would slip away if they delayed.
Li Xing and Li Yuan didn't hesitate, rushing toward their respective rooms.
Lin Ping's smile was radiant. Ten million! She had never seen that much money in her life.
The Li family moved quickly, taking only two hours to pack up all their belongings. They had just discussed that the whole family would stay in a hotel for a few days first. After all, they were wealthy now and didn't mind spending a little money.
As agreed, Yang Housekeeper gave them the money, and as soon as the Li family moved out, he immediately called people in to clean up the courtyard.
Ling Yue emerged from her space and heard the commotion next door. She stepped outside. She had never been to the neighboring courtyard, but she knew a large family lived there, and she would sometimes encounter them when going out.
"Yue Yue," Lan Ji had just returned from next door. Seeing Yang Housekeeper, he understood what was happening. Qin Lie's move truly opened his eyes.
"Why is it so lively next door?" Ling Yue asked, hearing people moving things.
"I'm not sure either," Lan Ji didn't intend to tell Ling Yue that Qin Lie had bought the neighboring courtyard. Qin Lie was his brother, so he had to keep it confidential from her. As for his sister, he could only apologize in his heart, because he really wanted Qin Lie to call him 'brother.' Just thinking about it felt great.
Ling Yue didn't pry further, as she never liked meddling in other people's business.
"Cousin, I need to go out for a trip tomorrow. I might not be back for a week."
"Where are you going? Let me accompany you."
"A friend invited me to attend a gambling stone exchange event in Myanmar." Ling Yue hadn't planned to go initially, but after attending the auction, she felt she didn't have enough money. The stock market had been stable lately with no significant ups and downs, so gambling stones seemed like the fastest way to make money.
"Myanmar is very dangerous. I should go with you," Lan Ji had been to Myanmar once, and it was very chaotic, with looting, arson, and robbery being commonplace, along with various black market dealings. He wasn't comfortable with his sister going alone.
"It's fine, I can protect myself," Ling Yue decided to research Myanmar online after deciding to go. It was indeed chaotic, with various factions battling for territory, constant wars, and death being a daily occurrence.
"Alright, it's decided then," Lan Ji made the final decision.
Ling Yue smiled and didn't say anything further.
The next day at dawn, Ling Yue and Lan Ji bid farewell to Granny Xu and set off for Myanmar.
At the airport, Older Tang was already waiting for them. Seeing Ling Yue and Lan Ji, Older Tang greeted them with a smile. "Little friend Ling Yue, little friend Lan Ji, let me introduce you. This is Zhu Yang, the president of the Gambling Stone Association, and this is Older Jiang. Any original stone he approves is without a doubt. And this is my granddaughter Tang Xin. These are Ling Yue and her cousin Lan Ji, the little friend who unveiled the top-grade Emperor Emerald glass species last time."
"Hello!" Ling Yue and Lan Ji nodded at everyone.
"Ling Yue," Tang Xin approached Ling Yue with a happy smile. "I didn't expect you to be the one who sold the Emperor Emerald glass species to my grandfather."
Ling Yue smiled faintly. "I didn't expect you to be Older Tang's granddaughter, either." Tang Xin and the original owner attended the same school and were in the same class. They had a very good relationship, and Tang Xin was the original owner's only friend.
"You two know each other?" Older Tang was somewhat surprised.
"We're classmates and good friends," Tang Xin smiled, taking Ling Yue's hand. Ling Yue was often bullied at school, which Tang Xin couldn't stand, so she stood up for her. Over time, they became good friends.
The last time Tang Xin heard that Ling Yue had been burned in a fire, she rushed to the hospital to see her after returning from a trip, only to find that Ling Yue had been discharged. She wanted to visit the Ling family to see Ling Yue, but the next day, the Ling family issued a statement saying that Ling Yue was not a member of their family and had no blood relation to them.
At that moment, there was a knock at the door.
