The tranquil and elegant Courtyard stands in stark contrast to the opulent and vividly colorful European Architecture, yet the clever handling in between allows them to blend together naturally.
Everything seems so effortless; the initial forms reveal a strong contrast between the two types, yet it feels entirely reasonable.
Adding a bit more would seem extravagant, while taking away a bit would feel lacking.
Naturally, different buildings come with different prices. Compared to construction costs, traditional Courtyards are certainly cheaper.
However, what is truly valuable is the interior decoration and daily living facilities, which are thoughtfully designed for both the young and the elderly, considering convenience for nighttime trips and the cold of winter as well as the heat of summer.
These advantages, introduced by Young Men or young women, unfold like scenes before people's eyes. Coupled with realistic renderings, the impact on people is beyond words.
As for those seemingly strange yet undeniably luxurious European Architecture styles, some may find them extravagant, while others appreciate such aesthetics.
"This is designed to cater to different preferences of our guests, with various styles being developed continuously. Every detail in the design is intentional. We also consulted the best feng shui master for the chosen location and its orientation."
The atmosphere grew increasingly lively. Listening to Yang Quanyong and others' explanations, potential buyers displayed expressions of longing. Many had initially come due to Liu Qingxi's reputation, and now it seemed truly worth purchasing.
"Buddy, forget it. Just for the Heating and not having to go outside at night, I want one of those new buildings." The term "building" refers to the European Architecture.
After all, this term sounds quite strange in this era; "building" is much easier to accept.
"Alright then, sir, please register here."
Seeing someone so decisively pay a deposit made everyone else restless; what if they missed out if they waited too long?
In an instant, the scene became uncontrollable as each person seemed oblivious to money's value, handing over banknotes as if they weren't their own.
The Young Men and the girls were extremely busy, never before had there been so many customers and such a bustling scene. The Account Room was filled with the sound of abacuses clicking non-stop, yet they still couldn't keep up with the speed at which the customers were bringing in silver notes.
The atmosphere resembled that of a modern housing market under purchase restrictions.
Everyone was frantically competing as if their lives depended on it, but for the sake of money, the hustle was worth it; they felt happy despite their exhaustion.
By afternoon, the crowd began to thin out. Those who secured houses left satisfied, while those who didn't were disappointed and asked when the next opportunity would be.
Only after receiving a reassuring answer did they leave with hope.
Finally, after sending off all the customers, the staff at the sales office were too tired to stand straight. However, looking at the bountiful results, their hearts felt sweet.
Even if they were exhausted, it was worth it; this was the result of the hard work of the Village people and their fellow villagers. All the efforts and contributions over these eight years had not been in vain.
"Wow, I really didn't expect us to sell so many at once."
"Isn't that right? We should go ask the village chief for a reward later." The Young Men winked, eager to share this good news with everyone.
After all, no matter how well-built the houses were, they needed to sell them one by one and then distribute the profits to the Fellow Villagers who participated in the construction.
They slumped into chairs to recover their energy. After a whole day of work, they had only eaten a couple of snacks for lunch, and now that they stopped moving, their stomachs began to rumble.
Half an hour later, the Account Room finally calculated the final results: "Today we sold a total of eighteen houses, all with a 40% deposit paid in advance, totaling an income of thirteen thousand five hundred taels of silver."
Wow~~~ The girls looked at the Account Room in astonishment: "Really? Is there really that much?"
Silver notes passed through his hands one by one, without much thought; no one knew exactly how many there were. However, when the final tally was completed, even the Account Room was taken aback.
He had lived half his life and worked in the Account Room for twenty years, yet he had never handled so much silver, let alone these young people from the Village.
By evening, the earnings from the sales office had reached Liu Qingxi.
Looking at the thirteen thousand five hundred taels of silver notes, she smiled; her efforts during this time had finally paid off.
Although she had made quite a bit of money over the past two years, most of it came from construction wages for building houses. This time was different.
This time, she had become a real estate developer.
No matter how much money it was, in her previous life as an architect, Liu Qingxi lived comfortably—she could neither become rich nor poor—and she never imagined herself as a Boss.
After all, that kind of investment was no small matter; it was already impressive to buy a house with a lifetime's earnings.
Unexpectedly, after being reborn in another world, she became a big Boss. The feeling was simply wonderful.
However, with hundreds of people under her management, monthly expenses were considerable. Coupled with the initial costs of materials, while this first profit looked substantial, it still fell short of covering material costs.
But that was okay; achieving such results in the first pre-sale was already quite good. At the very least, it proved that her decision was correct and that her determination to push through difficulties was justified.
That night, Liu Qingxi visited Zhang Wuliang's home. "Village Chief, our houses have shown initial results. Tomorrow, please gather all the kids together. They have worked hard during this time and deserve some rewards."
"Sure! The kids will be thrilled to hear this," Zhang Wuliang said, unable to hide his joy for the villagers. "By the way, do you have anything else? If not, I’ll notify them right away."
Well, he couldn't wait to see the excited performance of the Kid.
Liu Qingxi shook his head, "It's fine, Village Chief, you should hurry along."
As night fell, people rushed to share the news.
At Zhang San's home: "Did you hear? Miss Liu has notified the Kid to gather tomorrow for rewards."
"What? Really?" The woman's needle and thread fell into the basket with a clatter, her lips trembling with excitement.
At Li Si's home: "Just letting you know, there will be a reward tomorrow, so don't be late."
"Oh my, really? Tomorrow we'll definitely get up early and go together."
Thus, the people who were supposed to extinguish their oil lamps and drift into sleep were now wide awake with excitement.
In the night, in a certain room, a couple lay side by side in bed. The woman suddenly turned over and asked, "Dear, how much will Miss Liu reward each person?" Her eyes shone brightly in the darkness, filled with joy, excitement, and anticipation.
The man replied foolishly, "I don't know, but Miss Liu is usually generous; it can't be less than a hundred wen." This was his conservative estimate.
Even this was enough to make the woman restless with joy; after all, this was a reward, equivalent to something received for free.
However, what kind of surprise awaited them tomorrow?
