“Hearing all of this, they finally understood what was going on. Indeed, it made sense.

In such a poor area, people can’t possibly survive here indefinitely.

Young people are sure to venture out to cities to make a living and earn more money.

And once they have money, they might not want to return to their hometowns.

Mainly because their folks aren’t there anymore, what would be the point of returning?

A big city is definitely different from a hometown.

Indeed, some aspects of city life are far more convenient.

In ordinary rural areas like these, you might have to walk quite a distance to find a convenience store.

Whereas in the city, there’s almost always a convenience store under each residential block.

Moreover, the lifestyle and pace preferred by young people are definitely different from those favored by the elderly – the younger ones generally prefer faster lifestyles.

So, chances are that they wouldn’t even think to reclaim the houses here.

You would think there’s a different reason, but there’s none other than this.

If that’s really the case, Yigol Novak thought that the houses nearby could be put to good use.

So, a spark shone in his eyes at this moment, as he excitedly started to speak to the crowd.

“I have an idea.”

After hearing him speak, everyone naturally turned their gaze towards him, curious about what kind of solution he had come up with.

Yigol Novak had a subtle smile on his face, then he raised his hand intending to further elaborate.

“I think those young people probably won’t come back to their hometown, otherwise these houses wouldn’t be left rundown and uncared for in the first place. Besides, it’s not easy to rent them out, so why don’t we just buy them out-right?”

Upon hearing this, Suri Drew gave a nod of sudden realization.

Yes, why hadn’t she thought of such a solution?

She was just thinking about how crowded it is here. Would it get even more crowded if others were to come?

Now it seems this idea might indeed be quite practical.

And this way, they wouldn’t even have to look for another place. They could stay here, just with more space.

“Oh my gosh, honey, you’re so clever to have thought of this! I think it’s a very feasible plan, this way, our grannies won’t need to move elsewhere.”

She figured that these grannies had all grown accustomed to their surroundings here. If they were to move elsewhere, they might find it difficult to adjust.

Instead of having them move away, why not spend some money to refurbish this place a bit, fixing up anything that needs repairs?

Perhaps then, they could have things a bit more comfortable and convenient.

All the grannies were noticeably shocked when they heard this. They hadn’t expected Yigol Novak to come up with such a solution.

After all, you can’t just get these houses at your beck and call.

No one knew what the price of these houses would be.

But with housing prices constantly on the rise, even these dilapidated houses might cost quite a hefty sum.

This sum might be peanuts for Suri Drew and Yigol Novak, but not for the grannies.

They probably wouldn’t be able to accumulate such an amount even if they saved up their entire lives.

So their perception of the situation does vary to some extent.

“My goodness, there’s no need for all this, it’s already crowded enough here. If we buy up all the houses nearby, won’t it be a bit too much?”

“Yes, I also feel like that would be a waste of money. You’ve already spent so much, there’s no need to waste it any further.”

Seeing the grannies argue these points, Yigol Novak shook his head and explained.

“No, not quite. The foundation I’ve set up is to help more elderly people. If I can buy the houses on both sides, they would have places to stay too. Because this place is getting a bit too crowded now.”

Seeing his point, it occurred to the grannies that indeed, this was the case.

On closer thought, the place was indeed getting a bit too crowded.

If they didn’t get more places, there might not be anywhere for new arrivals to stay. It wasn’t like they could squeeze two people to a bed.

That would be quite unbearable indeed.

In the end, they could only nod their heads in agreement.

After seeing their nod of approval, Suri Drew and Yigol Novak exchanged glances, a pleasant smile appearing on both their faces.

With that settled, they would have to process this matter properly now.

Yigol Novak then signaled his assistant, who had consistently been standing by the doorway until now, to come in.

The duo then whispered something to each other before going outside.

All eyes naturally followed them.

Everyone found it immensely intriguing.

It wasn’t until their figures gradually disappeared from sight, that the grannies shifted their gaze back to Suri Drew.

They felt a bit awkward about this.

“We really can’t thank you enough for considering this so thoroughly. We hadn’t thought it all out so clearly.”

“Yes, we thought it would indeed be a waste of money, but once you think about it, if people really do move in, it wouldn’t really be a waste.” Suri Drew nodded while brewing tea for them, and replied.

“Yes, if you come across any elderly folks in need, you can definitely bring them here to stay.”

This place is actually a kind of small nursing home.

But there’s no need to pay to stay here, and everyone is so kind and nice, so there’s pretty much no room for disputes.

Because Suri Drew knew just how wonderful these grannies were.

Not only that, but she had also noticed that some of the grannies were rather smart and savvy.

Conflicts and friction are inevitable among people, due to differences in character and ways of doing things.

But during her time interacting with them, Suri Drew had been observing them.

She noticed that a few of them seem quite adept at handling these situations and defusing any potential conflicts..
