Siheyuan: Domineering life

After breakfast, the group went to the living room to chat.

"Qiu Nan, what brings you here?" Yang Jun asked.

Ding Qiunan was whispering to Yi Qiushui when she heard this and turned to look at Yang Jun.

"And you're talking about me! I told Sister Qiushui to bring me along, but you all forgot about it in the blink of an eye and came secretly on your own. If I hadn't come soon, you probably would have taken all the good spots, right?"

Yang Jun was taken aback upon hearing this.

"What good spots?"

"A good location is a good location."

Seeing this, Yi Qiushui smiled and said, "The good location that Qiu Nan mentioned is the good location for building a manor."

After listening, Yang Jun suddenly understood.

Now that the shelter is nearing completion, and there are plans to build a manor on the ground, this group of women, now retired, are thinking about enjoying their retirement. In fact, they are thinking more about their descendants. Who wouldn't want to have a chance to live when that day comes? So they are thinking about finding a good location here to build a manor so that they can enter the shelter as soon as possible.

After hearing this, Yang Jun smiled slightly, then turned to look at Wang Erwa, who was squatting by the door smoking.

"Old Wang, is that what you mean too?"

While smoking, Wang Erwa said calmly, "If you don't give me a good spot, I'll stay in your house and never leave."

"Scoundrel."

Yang Jun laughed and scolded, then said, "I was talking to Xiao Wu about this yesterday. We were planning to build a batch of manors around here and give them to you. I didn't expect you guys couldn't wait and all came here."

"Brother-in-law, thank you so much, thank you for still thinking of us." Ding Qiunan said.

"No need to thank me, we're all family." After saying that, he continued, "You should learn from Old Wang, look at how he acts like I owe him something." Yang Jun.

Wang Erwa said, "I'll be counting on you to take care of me in my old age."

"Get lost! I'm your father, you're responsible for my old age," Yang Jun said with a laugh.

Upon hearing this, Ding Qiunan and the other women all covered their mouths and laughed.

"Enough with the small talk, Lao Yang, when do you plan to start construction?"

Wang Erwa simply walked in, plopped down next to Yang Jun, and stared intently at him, saying, "I checked out the surroundings early this morning. That bastard Xiao Wu is your neighbor now, so I have to be on the other side, or I'll fight you to the death."

“Okay, you can have the other seat. After all, you're my son.” Yang Jun said.

"Damn it, I'm your father."

At this moment, Ding Qiunan became anxious.

"Brother-in-law, if the seats on the left and right are all taken, then you have to leave me one in the front or back, otherwise... hmph!"

"Why are you getting so worked up?" Yi Qiushui laughed. "You've chased me all this way, so of course I'll save you the best spot."

"Thank you, Sister Qiushui." Ding Qiunan smiled upon hearing this.

Afterwards, since they were already chattering about the construction of the manor, they simply called Yang Chengwu over to discuss the specific details of building the manor.

None of them were short of money, so Yang Jun certainly couldn't be asked to pay for the construction of the manor. Ding Qiunan was very generous and transferred 2 billion yuan on the spot as construction funds.

From the very first day the shelter was built, Yang Chengwu was in charge of the construction, so he knew exactly how to build it and how much to build.

"By the way, Lao Yang, we haven't visited the shelter yet. Can you show us around?" Wang Erwa said.

"Okay, no problem."

Yang Jun thought that he had only had a brief visit yesterday and hadn't really explored the place properly. When Wang Erwa made the suggestion, he agreed without hesitation.

“Brother-in-law, I want to go visit too.” Ding Qiunan said.

“We’ll go too,” Yi Qiushui and the others said.

"Alright, let's all go together," Yang Jun said. "Xiao Wu, lead the way."

Afterwards, the group went to the underground shelter.

This time, instead of going down the secret passage in the study, we entered the shelter through the main entrance.

The secret passage in the study was originally intended to allow him and his family to enter the safe haven as soon as possible, so he would not easily expose it.

Upon exiting the manor, several cars were already waiting at the gate.

The manor is not far from the shelter in a vertical distance, but since it is in the mountains, you have to take a detour along a winding mountain road to reach the shelter's gate.

The car ride was quick, and they arrived at the shelter gate in just a few minutes, even faster than when he entered the shelter through the secret passage. Yang Jun secretly vowed to install an elevator in the secret passage.

As usual, Yang Jun and his group put on masks before entering the shelter. There were many people and suspicious people there, and he didn't want to reveal his identity too early to avoid causing trouble for himself.

Yang Chengwu acted as the tour guide, patiently explaining the various functional areas to everyone. After Wang Erwa and the others entered the shelter, their expressions of surprise never stopped. They hadn't expected the shelter to be so large, enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people living at the same time.

They paid particular attention to the tenth floor, as it was where they would be living in the future.

After about three or four hours of sightseeing, the group returned to the ground.

Afterwards, they took a car back to the manor.

Upon entering the manor, I saw that there were quite a few guests, and the whole courtyard was bustling with activity.

"elder brother."

"Uncle Yang."

"Godfather."

"Uncle."

"uncle."

"Lao Yang."

As soon as Yang Jun entered the courtyard, a large group of people surrounded him.

Yang Anguo, Ma Juzi, Ma Xiangxiu, Shi Tou, Bang Geng, Li Lixin, Ma Zhihua, and others surrounded Yang Jun and greeted him warmly.

"Good good."

"Well... it's quite hot outside, let's go inside and cool off." Yang Jun was surrounded and sweating profusely.

Then, the group went to the living room.

The living room is very large, even larger than that of Pengyuan, and can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time.

A group of people were crammed into a room, and even with the air conditioning on, it was still unbearably hot.

Afterwards, Yi Qiushui took all the female guests to the side hall, leaving only a group of male guests in the living room.

"You guys... came here by smell?" Yang Jun looked at them with a smile.

The group of people were a little embarrassed by what was said, and they all blushed and smiled.

“Hehe, nothing can be hidden from Godfather.” Stone, the eldest of Yang Jun’s godsons, spoke up: “That’s right, we came for the manor.”

“Yes, Godfather, that’s exactly why we’ve come.” Everyone echoed in unison.

We're all friends here, and we often get together, so there's nothing to hide, and we just said what we were here for.

The shelter is now complete, and everyone wants to build a manor here. Even if they don't need it now, they can't be without it. That's their purpose in coming here. Most of them are now in their forties or fifties, and they know they'll be able to retire in a few years. They're also thinking about having their own manor here, just in case.

They heard that Yang Jun was coming to inspect the shelter, so they followed the scent and came here.

“Godfather, since Fifth Brother is your left neighbor, I’ll be your right neighbor. What do you think?” Stone was the first to raise his hand.

“Why should you be our neighbor? We’d like to be neighbors with our godfather too,” Sun Zhaodi was the first to object.

Yang Chengwu was in charge of the entire shelter construction. Now that he had finished building the manor, no one else could take it away. As for the other neighbor... they all wanted to get involved.

Who wouldn't want to be closer to Yang Jun?

“This is none of your business, younger generation.” Yang Anguo stood up, glanced at everyone and said, “Do you know the importance of respecting the elderly and caring for the young? Of course, it’s our older generation who should choose the houses first.”

“Yes, Anguo is right.” Ma Juzi was the first to jump out and agree, saying, “Why are you young people meddling in this? The reason we’re arguing about this is because we’re going to retire. After we retire, we’ll settle down here. You guys have plenty of time. We can talk about retirement later.”

“Uncle Komako, you can’t say that, can you?” Sun Xiaopeng said, “How can this be based on seniority? You yourself said to respect the elderly and care for the young. You’re only thinking about yourselves. Why don’t you think about us younger generation?”

"Brothers, don't you agree?"

"Yes, so you can't show love to children normally?"

"You call yourselves elders? You don't act like elders at all."

Yang Anguo and Ma Juzi's words immediately drew rebuttals from a group of younger people.

It's rare for everyone to get together today, so we're not being very polite in our conversations. Besides, we can't follow any rules today; everyone wants to be as close to the shelter entrance as possible.

"you……"

Ma Juzi and his group were, after all, a minority, and being elders, they naturally couldn't argue heatedly with the younger generation. So, they turned their attention to Yang Jun.

Yang Jun watched them arguing, smiling but saying nothing.

"Brother, say something, everyone's waiting," Yang Anbang said.

Upon hearing this, Yang Jun smiled and said, "Listen to me?"

Does that mean whatever I say goes?

"Absolutely, whatever you say goes, who dares to disobey?" everyone said in unison.

"Alright, since everyone wants to listen to me, then I'll draw a line."

After a slight pause, Yang Jun continued, "Xiao Wu built his house right next to mine a long time ago, so we definitely can't ask him to move again."

“Of course, we definitely can’t let Xiao Wu move. Xiao Wu has worked so hard for the shelter all these years, we should let him benefit a little, shouldn’t we?” Ma Juzi said.

“Yes, we’re not envious of how much of a benefit Brother Wu gets; it’s what he deserves,” the younger generation chimed in.

“Okay, since everyone agrees with Xiao Wu’s decision…” Yang Jun.

At this point, I paused for a moment, then glanced at everyone.

"As for the other neighbor... Old Wang already made the decision yesterday, do you have any objections?"

When everyone heard that Wang Erwa had taken the best spot from another neighbor, their faces showed strange expressions.

However, everyone knows the friendship between Wang Erwa and Yang Jun, so if he were to speak up, no one could take that position away from him.

"We have no objection."

After a brief pause of a few seconds, everyone spoke in unison again.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, that makes things easier."

Yang Jun laughed and said, "You are all the people closest to me. It would be unfair if I gave it to some and not others. So let's do something fair."

"Draw lots."

Then, Yang Jun asked Xiao Wu to bring over the manor's construction plan.

This manor construction plan was discussed and finalized last night by Xiao Wu, Wang Erwa, Ding Qiunan, and Yi Qiushui, and the design team worked through the night to create it.

Now that everyone is here, let's take this opportunity to let them draw lots and settle the manor issue directly, so as to avoid their endless annoyance.

Then, under Xiao Wu's guidance, everyone began to line up to draw lots.

Those who caught someone close to Yang Jun were naturally overjoyed, while those who were far away were naturally dejected. However, distance was never the problem; family ties were the key.

With Xiao Wu's help, the house was finally decided.

Yang Jun's manor is the closest to the entrance of the shelter, followed by Yang Chengwu and Wang Erwa. As for Ding Qiunan... Yang Jun had Xiao Wu cheat and arrange for her to be placed at the back, so her home is very close to Yang Jun's manor.

As for the others, they were all arranged to live on the mountain behind the manor. However, in order to prevent natural disasters, it was ultimately decided to level the mountain behind the manor before starting construction.

In fact, the distance between each manor and the entrance to the shelter is about the same, so there's no need to worry about that slight difference in distance, since everyone's reaction time is different.

As for the shelter having another entrance, Yang Jun wouldn't tell them; he had to keep it for himself and his family.

As for his sons, he also left each of them an estate, but it was done by drawing lots fairly; he couldn't make exceptions for everyone.

"After the lottery, each of you will transfer 200 million to Xiao Wu later," Yang Jun said.

"OK, no problem."

No one had any objection to Yang Jun's suggestion.

In this day and age, two hundred million is no small sum, but it's nothing to them. After all, they've been following Yang Jun for so many years and have already made a fortune.

Two hundred million seems like a lot, but it's not actually that much. You have to understand that leveling a mountain is no small project. In addition, each person is building a manor. Although none of them are as big as Yang Jun's manor, each manor costs a considerable amount. So, two hundred million can be said to be neither too much nor too little.

Afterwards, Yang Jun asked the nanny to settle them in.

After they finished washing up, they went to Yang Jun's yard again.

A banquet had already been prepared, with dozens of tables set up throughout the courtyard. Men and women sat separately and began to drink and eat.

"Anguo, your wife said you had a stroke?"

During the meal, Yang Jun noticed that Yang Anguo was frequently drinking with the younger generation and couldn't help but ask him about it.

"Um...yes, a mild stroke." Yang Anguo smiled sheepishly.

"Then why are you drinking so much?" Yang Jun said with a stern face.

"Just... a few cups."

"Don't drink any more after you finish this one."

"Yes, brother, I'll listen to you."

Yang Anguo downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, then slammed the glass face down on the table and refused to drink any more.

He never listened to other people's advice; he drank and smoked as he pleased. But Yang Jun was different. He would listen to Yang Jun's advice, and he knew that Yang Jun was doing it for his own good.

"Oh, right, Anbang."

Yang Jun suddenly remembered something and turned to Yang Anbang, saying, "Leave a house for Second Aunt and her son as well."

Since her second uncle Yang Dong passed away, her second aunt Ma Juan has been raising her child alone and has not considered remarrying. Yang Anguo and his brother have accepted their stepmother from the bottom of their hearts and have often helped them out, so their life is still relatively comfortable.

"Brother, I've remembered it, I've kept it all this time," Yang Anbang said quickly. (End of Chapter)
