a buying post, thinking it absurd how high the prices had soared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the forum kept this up, the prices on the trading platform would inevitably skyrocket eventually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after careful consideration, he still sensed something was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, with Star Ring now entering the Earth Cup and engaging in a life-and-death chase, a large number of players were dying or sailing away, causing the production of gold points and silver points to hit an all-time low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was important to know that the uses for gold and silver points hadn’t been unveiled yet; there was no need for them, so the major guilds certainly had some inventory left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no reason for the prices to fluctuate so terrifyingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no longer mere speculation; it was a reckless acquisition at all costs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With so much money flowing into the purchase of gold and silver points, something definitely felt wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about it, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo felt even more certain that his earlier decision to harvest and operate was correct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>….\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>————————————-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the old city center of Demon City,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the neighbors, armed with sticks, crowded together, confronting a group of white-collar workers in blue uniforms and safety helmets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you dare come any closer, we’ll fight you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, the leading manager in a suit and blue tie stepped forward and roared furiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You stubborn old fools, you are blatantly obstructing construction!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Talk about construction, this is our home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why don’t you go do your construction at your own homes?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you dare to take one more step today, we’ll fight you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Zhao cursed angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right, let’s fight them!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding neighbors shouted excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…..\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s a revolt, a revolt!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leading manager was also infuriated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Manager Zhou, what do we do now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They have too many people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this turns into a conflict, we might not stand a chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of security was also trembling with fear due to the large number of residents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We must proceed, regardless, this area is determined for demolition!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Manager Zhou gritted his teeth and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Since you say so, then we brothers are prepared to risk everything.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The head of security’s expression shifted, ready to go all in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as both sides were ready for a massive conflict, a loud shout came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stop!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene, which had reached a critical point of tension, suddenly quieted down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Zhao and the others turned their heads to see Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo walking over with a very upset expression on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo, all the neighbors shouted excitedly, “The landlord is back…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…..\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, everyone gathered around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Manager Zhou was also taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, the owner of the urban village has returned, making this even better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uncle Zhao, what’s the matter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo asked, suppressing the anger in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo, you’re finally back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people just showed up out of nowhere, wanting to demolish our entire old city to build some interstellar airport, with a very aggressive attitude, hell-bent on forced demolitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look, they’ve even damaged the walls of those buildings to the west and injured several of our people who were arguing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Zhao accused angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is everyone who got hurt okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They’re alright, we’ve had them taken to the hospital.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncle Zhao nodded in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Manager Zhou, with a smile plastered on his face, squeezed his way through and respectfully handed a business card to Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello, I am Zhou Huai of Rekeshield Company, and you must be the owner of this urban village.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am, what about it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo did not accept the other party’s business card, responding with a very cold voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s great, please have this mob cleared away quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This area is being expropriated for demolition to build an interstellar airport, and you’re about to get rich!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Huai said with a beaming smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who allowed you to demolish it, did I agree?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sir, you must be joking, the compensation is quite substantial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have a problem with money?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, this is a legitimate big official project, we cannot delay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m seriously warning you!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have never signed any demolition agreement, you are forcibly demolishing illegally and also injured my tenant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Withdraw your people immediately, apologize, or brace yourselves for a lawsuit that you will lose all the way to Imperial City, I can put each of you behind bars!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo said with utmost firmness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s words, Zhou Huai’s face instantly turned dark, yet this time he really couldn’t lash out or stand his ground as before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo was right, since they couldn’t contact him, they hadn’t signed any agreement at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forced demolition was indeed illegal, and moreover, this guy was not the poor average Joe they were used to dealing with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Owning such a large area meant he was likely an invisible wealthy man, who could likely make each lawsuit stick, possibly landing them in prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Huai wiped the sweat from his forehead and squeezed out an awkward smile, saying,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just wait a moment, please.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Huai then picked up the phone, quickly dialed a number, and walked to the side to murmuring a few words to the person on the other end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, a fleet of official buses arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The buses stopped nearby, and one by one, men in professional uniforms got off, led by a shrewd-looking fat man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo, noticing the logos on their uniforms, furrowed his brow slightly, “Isn’t that the Construction Bureau?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fat man walked up, all smiles, and said to Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You must be the owner here, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hello!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m Lei Jiang, the Director of the Construction Bureau.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding this matter, I ask for your understanding, after all, it is for public benefit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much are they offering you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo suddenly blurted out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jiang was also taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll give you twice that!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo said directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo, you have misunderstood,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jiang was somewhat flustered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Three times!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not that…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Five times!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing that, Lei Jiang’s expression became extremely animated, his forehead sweating profusely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo, please let me explain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten times!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo directly made a sky-high promise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jiang almost wanted to cry, hastily explaining, “Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo, you really have misunderstood, how could I dare to take any benefit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m truly handling this as public duty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place really needs to become an interstellar airport, and previously when we couldn’t find you, the project deadline came up too soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We had to act out of urgency, it really was for our own good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know as well that in Demon City, where space is incredibly valuable, there’s nowhere else suitable to build an interstellar airport.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Lei Jiang’s words, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo’s expression grew even more serious, realizing the trouble was bigger now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing his determination, it didn’t seem like a private corporation looking to profit, it truly might be about building an interstellar airport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it’s a top-level plan, I’m not uncooperative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are over a million tenants living here under my lease, how do you plan to resettle them?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This, this, how to resettle, Demon City has no space.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jiang also appeared extremely troubled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Manager Zhou Huai, seeing this, hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“These aren’t their houses, as long as your compensation is sufficient, it should be fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if resettlement is needed, it’s simple, just move everyone to another city.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why don’t you move to another city, would you like to live outside the city?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Mo immediately retorted, silencing him; who’d want to leave here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although life here was stressful, the facilities were good, including education, employment, and medical care, incomparable to those in other cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Manager Zhou Huai immediately clammed up, having no desire to concede.\u003C\u002Fp>",1351,"2026-06-09T07:18:15.017Z",1,"novelbin.me","047212f6da1cb9cc4944e194ee253075ca41175c86565fe2b0287b6343e0b10d","destiny-mission-of-game-star-ring-chapter-373","destiny-mission-of-game-star-ring-chapter-371",1771,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdestiny-mission-of-game-star-ring-cover.jpg"]
