Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1526: Chapter 1314: The House Is Not ”Peaceful”_2

Lei Ying rubbed his nose and looked at the car roof.

Bai Xiaosheng looked out the window with a sense of helplessness.

”Girl, what you said makes sense!” The driver, seeing such a beautiful woman, was pleased to agree with his view and was quite delighted.

The taxi carrying Bai Xiaosheng and the others drove into the county town.

Seeing his small hometown also building roads and constructing buildings everywhere, Bai Xiaosheng was filled with emotion, thinking maybe in another two years, he wouldn’t even recognize the roads when he came back.

Back in the day, Bai Xiaosheng had participated in the initial city planning and understood the development direction of Zhongjing. On his way here, he had reviewed numerous pieces of information regarding Zhongjing’s development in his mind.

With keen insight, Bai Xiaosheng knew through various information and the old plans that the county’s location was perfectly aligned with the future development direction of Zhongjing, making its future potential truly immeasurable.

However, it hadn’t been advertised yet, probably to prevent real estate speculation.

”Young man, you all are from here, right? So am I.”

The taxi driver glanced at Bai Xiaosheng’s expression in the rearview mirror and laughed, ”I see you carrying big and small bags of things, coming back from outside, right? Our place here, a lot of changes, huh. Everywhere is under construction, buildings going up all over. But, many are selling poorly, too many buildings. Also, while other places have clear plans, nothing heard here yet. Oh yes, the villa group you are heading to is quite something! You’re visiting relatives, right?”

This driver was quite curious.

Seeing the fellow countryman enjoying the conversation, Bai Xiaosheng smirked and humored him.

Seeing they were almost home, unexpectedly, they encountered a traffic jam at an intersection.

The road ahead was crowded with people and cars, and there seemed to be some kind of commotion.

”What’s going on there?” Bai Xiaosheng asked curiously, sitting up to look forward.

Of course, with something happening near home, he paid special attention.

It wasn’t far from where he lived.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying also looked over curiously.

”Hey, up ahead is a neighborhood under construction for the past couple of years, but it’s still not finished. Some say the developer ran out of money. The project couldn’t be completed.” The taxi driver explained casually, seeming to know the situation well.

”So, is it the homeowners making a fuss?” Bai Xiaosheng asked.

”Not just the homeowners, but also the local residents,” the taxi driver replied.

What does it have to do with the local residents?

Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback, and Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying were also curious.

”The developer is from Anjiang, not a local. Initially, they weren’t into real estate, but logistics. Since funds were insufficient, they started using the construction site as a warehouse, hoarding building materials and peddling them to Zhongjing City District and other places. Quite impressive, huh? Since the project is ongoing, the materials moving in and out, the county level government doesn’t say anything. But, here’s the problem—”

After a brief explanation, the driver sneered, ”The project’s heavy vehicles coming and going make the road the most congested and chaotic, and not long ago, someone even got hit fatally.”

”Sometimes, in the middle of the night, there’s construction and unloading of goods, making it hard for people to sleep with all the noise.”

”You might ask, no one cares about it? Someone—yes, but they just go easy on them, and every now and then they resume.”

”Such a big enterprise, bringing so much benefit to us, they dare not offend.”

”Plus, with the unfinished building, homeowners are also causing trouble, so it looks like what you’re seeing now.”

Such a surprising situation?

Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but glance at Bai Xiaosheng, who also frowned slightly.

”The neighborhood where your relatives live, the location and scenery are great, but unfortunately, it got caught up in such a mess. The villa area has become a noisy place next to the train tracks, rough to deal with.” The taxi driver lamented, ”But who can do anything, right, for such a huge real estate developer, they are very powerful.”

Listening to the taxi driver’s account, Bai Xiaosheng furrowed his brows.

They hadn’t yet reached home, uncertain if they were affected, so he didn’t say anything.

While they were chatting in the car, the traffic started moving.

The taxi driver quickly shifted gears to go, and Bai Xiaosheng heard an unusual engine growl.

Following that, Bai Xiaosheng saw a ruggedly contoured vehicle forcefully coming up from behind, it was a Hummer.

The taxi they were in almost got sideswiped by it, the taxi driver was obviously startled.

The Hummer’s driver was a young man, in his twenties, quite good-looking but with a defiant expression. While overtaking, he even threw an empty drink can directly at Bai Xiaosheng’s taxi and cursed, ”Move aside! Asshole!”

The empty drink can hit the taxi’s passenger-side window where Lei Ying happened to be looking, the can striking right in front of his face.

Lei Ying’s eyelids didn’t even twitch as he coldly watched the other vehicle.

Clearly, it was the other party cutting in line, yet they still cursed.

The taxi driver, after the initial shock, muttered under his breath, ”Damn bastard!”

Bai Xiaosheng sharply sensed something unusual, by common sense, a taxi driver being provoked like this, even if they wouldn’t race up to confront and exchange curses, they would at least curse out loud in their car, especially since they had the right reasoning.

Yet this driver, in his own car, in a place where the others can’t see or hear, was muttering curses under his breath, showing how stifled he felt.

Was it because the other was driving a Hummer, a rich person not to be trifled with?

Immediately, Bai Xiaosheng dismissed this thought.
