Hongji and his father took a sip of their tea, and he explained the purpose of their visit to the father and son.
Upon hearing that they wanted to buy the homestead land, the father and son simply fell silent for a moment. As the father, he nodded and said:
"We're both bachelors, so we don't need an extra homestead. If you want to build a house, feel free to use it!"
The son, without much thought, also nodded in agreement.
"Uncle, we can't just take this homestead land without proper compensation. We have to pay a fair price for it,"
Hongji, seeing how hard the situation was for the father and son, did not want to owe them a lifetime of favor on behalf of his father.
His father might be okay with it, but he did not want to have the reputation of bullying others.
"My son is right. We must pay you for the homestead land. We are building a house and cannot owe you money!"
