Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

"Indeed, I know this as well, comrade, I really don't have the authority, I'm not lying to you, I think even our leaders don't have this authority."

"Comrade, speaking up a bit, let's go back together and ask what the leader thinks, if it can be lowered a bit, I can spend more to find someone to repair the houses,

as you can see, both these houses need major repairs."

"Alright, if you're not going to give up, I'll go with you to ask."

Yuanyuan looked at the time, it was almost three o'clock. Better hurry up, Tan Shaoting was scared yesterday. Better get back earlier to save him from worrying.

The four of them headed to the housing management office again. This person was also an enthusiastic fellow, "Comrade, I'll go see our leader, you wait here for a moment."

Yuanyuan nodded, of course, she had no objections. That's how things should be, otherwise, others might think she has a lot of money? That wouldn't be normal either.

"Mom, when are we going home?"

"Waiting for news here, if possible, we'll buy it today. We can come back again tomorrow."

"I miss dad." Qi Yan was the most sensitive child. He sensed Tan Shaoting's unease.

"Alright, let's wait a little longer for this uncle's news."

After about five minutes, he came out. Yuanyuan saw the smile on his face and knew there must have been a reduction.

To be honest, this person is really nice, nowadays people with such formal jobs aren't this enthusiastic.

"Comrade. Our leader said, at most, a reduction of one hundred yuan per house.

I thought it wouldn't be possible. Didn't expect our leader to agree."

"Thank you so much, comrade, the remaining two hundred yuan can hire someone to patch up the houses. It can buy quite a few tiles.

Comrade, let's get all the paperwork done today, and also transfer the house I bought yesterday to my child's name."

Yin Shudong smiled, "Comrade, it's possible to transfer the ownership of these two houses today, but transferring to the child's name isn't allowed, it can only be in your name or your husband's name."

"Can't it be in the kids' names?"

Yin Shudong shook his head, "That's the regulation."

"Alright then, I'll be someone with three houses now, but there's no problem with that, right?"

Yin Shudong laughed, "As long as it's recorded here, there's no problem."

"That's good, comrade, I'll go get the money and be back in ten minutes. You go ahead with the paperwork."

Yuanyuan took the three kids home. She put the money in her purse and returned to the housing management office.

It was already three-thirty, truth be told, time was a bit tight. Without a mobile phone, it's really troublesome. Wouldn't a call have sufficed?

Thinking of the phone, Yuanyuan looked at the phone on Yin Shudong's desk.

"Comrade, can I make a phone call? The four of us have been out too long, I'm afraid my husband is worried."

"Hmm, it's not a long-distance call, right?"

"No, don't worry. I can pay for the call."

"If it's not a long-distance call, there's no problem, my phone here can't make long-distance calls."

Tan Shaoting was listening to Da Biao report on Cao Mingjun's capture situation when the phone rang.

"Hello, this is Tan Shaoting."

"It's me, I bought the two houses next to the one we bought yesterday. I'm handling the paperwork now, might be home a bit late."

"I'll come pick you up."

"No need, once the paperwork is done, we'll head back, don't worry.

Alright, I'll hang up now, this is a colleague's office phone, it's not convenient."

Tan Shaoting looked at the silent phone and helplessly put it down.

His wife isn't someone who likes to show off. Didn't expect her to buy two houses together today. And listening to her voice, there's a hint of excitement, haven't seen her like this in a long time.

Da Biao continued his report.

"Do you want to interrogate or let someone else do it?"

"Leader, let me handle it."

"Go ahead, no need to have concerns."

Da Biao understood what the leader meant. A look of excitement appeared on his face.

The seven of them had been with Tan Shaoting for several years, coming to this place together.

The first lesson they received here was not to use extreme methods.

The seven of them really couldn't adapt. Now the leader tells them they can follow their instincts, that's great.

Actually, he didn't know the leader's actions couldn't even be described as extreme anymore.

Half an hour later, two trucks came in.

And now Zeng Zhenqing had learned of Tan Shaoting's actions.

He gritted his back teeth, good, really good. He's now cleaning up after him, oh boy, he isn't afraid of making a fuss, he's stirred up a big mess again.

At this moment, Secretary Xiao Chin hurriedly came in.

"Leader, the second leader is over there. Went straight to the big leader's office."

Zeng Zhenqing nodded and waited until Xiao Chin went out before he laughed, thinking to himself this matter had nothing to do with him anymore. Let the leader worry now. If it wasn't for the leader's protection, he would've been summoned yesterday, today such a thing wouldn't have happened.

Cao Mingjun, even if there are issues now, don't you still need approval for a direct capture? You swaggered over to grab him directly. I heard the Cao Family was also taken together.

Truly daring. Let the big leader handle it.

But it's really known. Xiao Su is Tan Shaoting's restricted area. Is he mad?

In the big leader's office, "So arrogant?"

"Just young and impetuous. But what could be the reason?"

Pretending not to know, that's classic, making you unable to speak about grievances.

"I also want to know the reason. I called him, yet he didn't answer. You still have to handle it."

The big leader tugged at his mouth corner, "Probably not deliberately avoiding the call, right? I'll have Xiao Lee call him."

Tan Shaoting wasn't in the office at all. He knew someone would call him, but he had no mood to respond now.

So it was his orderly, Zhou Cong, who answered the calls.

"Hello, this is Tan Shaoting's office.

Hello, Leader, our leader is not in, he went to the interrogation room.

Alright, I'll immediately notify him, but we can't just enter the interrogation room; we have to wait for our leader to come out himself.

Yes, I understand, I'll go wait outside, as soon as the leader comes out, I'll notify him to go over.

Yes, yes."

Zhou Cong hung up the phone, thinking, the leader really understands them well. Not answering now is the right move.

Tan Shaoting was indeed in the interrogation room, though he was just sitting there, listening to Da Biao interrogate Cao Mingjun.

Just sitting there, he exuded a strong presence.

Cao Mingjun went from being arrogant at the start to now just lowering his head, saying nothing.

Tan Shaoting suddenly stood up. "Da Biao, what about your methods?"
