Fu Changgen and his son were detained for two days. When they were released from the police station and went back to Fu Yuanlin’s place, they found that her house had already been sold, and the new owner was there with the front door wide open, busy cleaning.
Fu Yuanlin had split the proceeds from the house sale with Zhao Dafa—she had little choice in the matter, as he had caught her in the act of selling it. Fearing she would abscond with the money, Zhao Dafa had followed her everywhere. Fortunately, the property was in a prime location and was quite spacious; since housing prices had more than doubled over the years, the home she had originally purchased for 300,000 yuan sold for 680,000. Each of them took 340,000 yuan, and with their 80,000 yuan in savings split between them, they each had over 400,000, which was enough to buy a hundred-square-meter apartment.
True to her nature as a protagonist, after receiving the money, Fu Yuanlin went to a low-cost housing complex and purchased two sixty-square-meter apartments from other owners at a very low price. She lived in one and rented out the other to collect the income, while the remaining 150,000 yuan was deposited in the bank to earn fixed-term interest. With a three-year fixed interest rate of 8%, the interest alone was more than Fu Yuanlin and her son could ever spend.
