The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 606 - 0: Forced Demolition

Originally, this area was to be developed by Wuu Corporation, which also had its share of forced demolitions.

But being a large company with a reputation to uphold, they didn’t dare to be too reckless.

After the dissolution of Wuu Corporation, this location became a bit problematic and a bit thorny to deal with.

Lin’s Group did not take over, and in the end, an outsider snatched it away.

This company bore some grudges against Long Fei and was none other than Zheng Corporation from Qingdong City.

They had been eyeing the real estate market in Binhai City for a long time and seized this opportunity, not willing to let it pass.

At the bidding meeting, they even bid higher than the prices of the surrounding property projects, entering the market at all costs.

One can imagine the compensation for the villagers in the urban village, with the budget already exceeded, naturally, they had to start cutting from the compensation.

When Wuu Corporation was around, the compensation they offered was ten thousand per square meter.

At that time, the surrounding area was thirteen thousand, and the villagers stood firm and did not allow demolition.

Now that Zheng Corporation has taken over, they directly pressed the price down to five thousand per square meter, a full half less.

The villagers would have to be out of their minds to agree to them, and the conflict between the two sides was even more intense than before.

The demolition team called by Zheng Corporation were all from Qingdong City, with no connection to Binhai City.

The demolition team hired by Wuu Corporation had their families in Binhai City and therefore had some restraint in their actions.

When people from Qingdong arrived, they did not care about consequences and resorted to brute force demolition.

Su Yiyi’s father, Su Laicai, liked to take the lead; he had just been beaten two days ago and still had gauze wrapped around his head.

When Long Fei drove to the entrance of the village, the villagers blocked him from entering, and it was Su Laicai who came out to meet him.

He was clearly a big brother figure among the villagers now.

A group of young men showed respect as they handed him cigarettes, each calling him Brother Su.

He grew more pleased with himself, feeling that the injury he suffered was worthwhile, and kept introducing Long Fei to everyone, almost calling him son-in-law.

Long Fei saw the look in these villagers’ eyes, clearly pushing him to be a human shield.

In such matters, the person who sticks out their neck without having any real say is usually the one who doesn’t end well.

If they won’t negotiate with you, even if it comes to a deadlock, in the end, they will look for someone who has a say.

The ones who benefit are those who have a voice.

Like the village head, the director of the residents’ committee, and the like.

Long Fei parked his car in front of Su Laicai’s house.

Su Laicai couldn’t bear to get out of the car and touched it excitedly, "Is this the taxi that Yiyi was talking about? For me?"

"Yes, it’s for you to use," Long Fei responded, nodding as he got out of the car.

Su Laicai’s eyes shone; he hadn’t thought such good fortune could really come his way.

A car given for free, and not just any—it had a commercial license plate!

Its market value, at the very least, started at half a million.

The car was the latest model of KIA, worth at least a hundred thousand or so.

He got out of the car, excitedly hurrying to invite Long Fei inside.

In the kitchen in the courtyard, Su Yiyi was cooking, and the smell of meat wafted out as soon as Long Fei entered.

Upon seeing Long Fei, she cheerfully called out, "Brother Long, please have a seat! I’ll just fry a couple more dishes and they’ll be ready."

She wore the uniform of No. 2 Middle School, her long ponytail swaying, and her little face beamed with joy.

Long Fei nodded in acknowledgment and sat down in the house with Su Laicai. freēwēbnovel.com

The table was already set with five or six dishes, including cold dishes, steamed, and fried ones.

Su Yiyi felt it wasn’t enough and stir-fried three more dishes.

Su Laicai took out a bottle of Erguotou, pulled out a cup for Long Fei, poured it, and said to him, "Brother Long, you came just in time. The village chief just gave me a ten-year-old bottle of Erguotou a couple of days ago; I’ve been saving it and didn’t have the heart to drink it. Now that you’re here, let’s enjoy it to the fullest."

Long Fei looked at the bandage on his head and asked, "What happened to your injury?"

Su Laicai briefly recounted what had happened over the past few days to Long Fei, and they clinked their cups together.

His tone was rather proud as he told Long Fei that he was now officially the vice-captain of the village’s Guard Squad.

In the village, that was a position of some influence.

Curious, Long Fei asked, "Wasn’t this place supposed to be ready for demolition already? How come the negotiations aren’t settled yet?"

Su Laicai cursed, "Damn it, it’s all Wuu Corporation’s fault. They didn’t go bankrupt earlier, they didn’t go bankrupt later, but just at this time, they go bankrupt and pass the project to an outsider. We were close to a deal, but after this outsider took over, things got completely deadlocked."

"Which outsider?"

Long Fei lifted his cup and clinked it with him again.

After downing his drink, Su Laicai raised his head and pondered for a moment before saying, "It’s some Zheng Corporation from Qingdong City, a company that plays dirty, utterly heartless."

"Zheng Corporation?"

Long Fei frowned and asked him, "Then why don’t you try to solve this with the government?"

Su Laicai complained, "Forget it, the government is eager to wash their hands of it. It’s already good enough that someone is willing to take over this place. When we went to petition, they said it was an economic dispute and told us to negotiate with Zheng Corporation directly."

The real estate industry is quite complicated, with too many interests involved, to the point where even the mayor can’t have the final word.

Unless the situation escalates to a point where the whole country knows about it.

Otherwise, such matters are unlikely to be dealt with by anyone.

He wasn’t a superhero; these issues still had to be dealt with by the villagers themselves. At most, he could help the Su family out and try to secure some additional benefits for them.

Su Yiyi came in, bringing the freshly stir-fried dishes to the table.

A plate of garlic sprouts stir-fried with pork, a plate of chili peppers with pork, and a plate of Kung Pao chicken.

Long Fei told her to sit down and stop fussing. After she went outside to get the stew, she came back in and sat down properly.

Not having seen her for a while, this girl had become even more charming than before.

Mainly, she had matured a bit in some areas, they were slightly fuller, giving her more of a womanly appeal.

After sitting down, she clearly wanted to talk to Long Fei, but with her pretty face blushing, she didn’t know what to say.

Long Fei asked her, "How have your studies been lately? Are you adapting to the new environment?"

"Not bad, my classmates are all very caring. My grades slipped a bit when I first got there, but these past few days, I’ve caught up!"

Su Yiyi nodded, took a small bite of rice with her bowl and chopsticks.

Su Laicai proudly said, "Yiyi got third place in the class on the recent practice test! That’s third place in a key high school. Her class teacher called me over specifically to give her lavish praise. Our Su family is going to produce a top scholar in this lifetime."

Both Long Fei and Su Yiyi laughed at his remark, and they were enjoying their meal when there was a sudden loud knocking outside, with a young voice shouting, "Brother Su, come out quick, the demolition team is attacking again!"

"Damn, they don’t even let people eat in peace!"

Su Laicai sprang up, telling Long Fei and Su Yiyi to keep eating. He grabbed a long stick from the yard, opened the door, and went out.

Anxious, Su Yiyi chased after him, calling out from behind, "Dad, your wound hasn’t healed yet!"

Su Laicai didn’t heed her and disappeared from sight.

Knowing Su Yiyi was worried about her father, Long Fei went out and had her lead him over to see.

This Zheng family had some connections with him, the last time Zheng Bin died on Devil Island.

Tan Liu from the streets had given him a heads up, saying that the Zheng family was preparing to settle scores with him!

He was also interested to see how the Zheng family would deal with him.
