Chapter 836: Red Hood (Part 2)

"Have you heard?! We are going to be renovated here too!

!" A child rushed into the cellar, waved the newspaper in his hand and said: "Look! We are in the first phase plan!"

Other children gathered around one after another and said: "What renovation? What renovation?"

The child shook the newspaper and said: "It seems that we are going to build overpasses here, but in order to build overpasses, we have to change the buildings here into... that is... have you been to the Living Hell? It's the kind where all the houses are in one big building, and then connected by passages, becoming especially tall and big, and everyone can have a house!"

"Really? I heard my uncle say a long time ago that the houses in the Living Hell are especially expensive, because everyone there can have a single room, and some rich people can even have a living room!"

"If it really becomes like that, can we also have a room?! And overpasses, is it the same as the bridge next to our street?!"

"Forget it, that bridge over the stinky ditch. How can it compare to a large overpass! If you have been to the city center, you will know that the overpasses there are taller than the buildings here!"

"I like the Living Hell place very much!" A little boy raised his hand and said: "When I went there to deliver things, the people there were very arrogant, but that's also true. They all live in new houses, drink clean water, and there are shops to buy things downstairs. Even the children there are dressed cleaner than us!"

"Great, if it really becomes like that, I must live in a room with a window, the kind that can see outside. I also want to raise a pot of flowers..."

The children were very excited and imagined the scene of the future. At this time, a voice with sleepiness came from the room next door. He said: "What's wrong? Noisy and noisy?"

"Oh! Boss, come and see, look at today's newspaper!" The children immediately surrounded him and said: "Boss Jason, look, we are going to be renovated here!"

Jason tried hard to open his eyes. Last night, he read books too late and only slept for four or five hours. Now he was still very sleepy.

He took the newspaper and saw that it was written that the second phase of Cat Getan's road renovation plan was about to be put into construction, and the second phase plan included their street. Moreover, the content of the renovation included building renovation and traffic renovation, and building renovation would start in three days.

"Boss, you are well-informed. Do you think it will become like the Living Hell, where everyone lives in a big house, everything can be bought in the house, no longer need to be rained on, and no longer need to worry about street water accumulation?"

"Can we also have a room with a window? Hmm, four in a room, or six in a room is fine, as long as there is a window, I can raise a pot of flowers..."

Jason's face gradually became solemn, because he not only paid attention to the news that the renovation was about to start, but also paid attention to the way of renovation.

This renovation was no longer jointly funded by gangs and the Wei En family, but led by the government, with the Wei En Group injecting capital and contracting the project. From design to construction to putting into use, it was all controlled by the Wei En Group, without the gangs needing to send a person or spend a cent.

Jason was different from these children. He could more clearly recognize how much investment such a large project required? Was the Wei En Group crazy?

Last time the Living Hell was renovated, besides the Wei En Group, the Falcone family and the government all participated, and the heads of the twelve families also injected capital. The effect achieved in the end was quite good.

The secondary industry there was quite prosperous, providing a lot of supporting services for the logistics industry. And after the people there became wealthy, the gangs that ruled there could also pay more protection fees.

But this time. It was completely borne by the Wei En Group for the renovation costs, but the gangs could use the buildings and roads here completely for free. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a sugar-coated bullet.

The few books Jason just finished reading told him. Never expect capitalists to be merciful, but he had just finished reading these books, and the biggest capitalist in this city was merciful, intending to improve the lives of everyone here, and not charging any reward.

Jason narrowed his eyes, appearing a bit vigilant, and said in a deep voice to all the children: "Cheer up, there may be big changes recently. Go, let those who are running around outside come back quickly..."

"Boss! Boss! It's bad!!" A very young child rushed in and screamed. Jason's face immediately sank.

Jason hurried out and saw that the Cookie sisters were bandaging the arm of the Six-Fingered Big Sister. The smell of blood permeated. He walked up, looked at the wound of the Six-Fingered Big Sister and asked: "What's going on? How did it get hurt?"

"It's okay, had a fight with someone, accidentally scratched it." The Six-Fingered Big Sister turned her head to one side and then said: "Have you heard the wind? It's going to be renovated here recently. I think we should change places."

"Why?!" Another child raised his voice and said: "It's because of the renovation that we should stay here. We will be assigned houses!"

The Six-Fingered Big Sister showed a painful expression and said: "Have you read the resettlement plan? I'm afraid we must leave here to survive..."

Jason turned back, took the newspaper he just put down, and continued to read. He saw that the resettlement plan was unexpectedly generous. All residents here, regardless of whether they have a driver's license, can get a room quota.

The minimum standard for a room is a single room without a kitchen or bathroom, but with a window, the daily sunshine duration is not less than three hours, and it will be equipped with good furniture.

However. If you want a better single room, such as a one-bedroom or with a kitchen and bathroom, you need to pay extra.

If you don't pay extra, it's a single room that can almost only fit a bed, but the floor where the single room is located will have a public bathroom and an open-air kitchen.

But this is also an incomparably superior living condition for these children. After all, they are now twenty or thirty people crowded in the cellar, not only without windows, but also occasionally windy and rainy.

As for bathrooms and kitchens, let alone. Even the beds in the room are made of crates. On Jason's small bed, there is a mattress picked up. Others have mattresses, and some even only have a thin sheet.

The resettlement plan says. Each room is equipped with a bed, a mattress, a lamp, a small bedside table, and even a flower pot on the bay window of the room, and there is even a hanging painting at the head of the bed.

Jason saw that the contractor for the building renovation and decoration part was Wei En Decoration Engineering Company. This company was the company that did decoration for the Wei En Hotel. The materials and the degree of refinement can be imagined.

But Jason's face became worse and worse, because according to the gang's rules, these things were not what they could possess.

Just at this time, a "bang" sound came, and the cellar door was pried open directly. Several gang members jumped down, pointed guns at all the children and said: "All go out! Hurry! All go to the ground, don't stay here anymore!"

The children all climbed up tremblingly, and after arriving on the ground, they stood against the wall, including Jason.

The leading gang member said: "Give you an afternoon to move away, don't appear in our gang's territory again. No matter who asks, you must say you have never been here. If someone asks you, you say you moved from someone else, understand?"

The Six-Fingered Big Sister covered her arm and said hatefully: "You only gave us an afternoon to move, and we can't even take our things!"

"This is not my business, it's the boss's order. In short, before tonight, you must leave here. After all, it will start in three days. If you are seen by those wealthy people here, I don't know what they will say!"

That gang member flicked the gun barrel with his finger and said: "You'd better be sensible. Letting you stay here for so long is already enough. Get out!"

After several gang members left, the children were all pale. The younger sister among the Cookie sisters asked: "Why, why do we suddenly have to move away from here? Why do they want to drive us away?"

The Six-Fingered Big Sister squatted down with tears in her eyes, covering her arm and said: "Don't you know? A single room in the Living Hell can be rented for a high price of 10 dollars a week..."

"We have more than 20 people here, and we can be assigned more than 20 rooms. If we don't live there, the gangs here can have more than 200 dollars in income every week. A month is close to 1000 dollars..."

"As long as we are driven away, and then the houses assigned to us are rented out, they don't have to do anything every month, and they can earn three times more money than before. Everyone knows how popular the Living Hell is now, and it will be the same here..."

Jason held the newspaper tightly in his hand and said "

"As long as they can earn money, they won't care about anything. They won't care where we go, how we will live next, and whether we will die on the street..."

Jason's arm began to tremble constantly. He took a deep breath and then said: "Pack your things, prepare to move."

Tears were in the eyes of all the children. There was nothing sadder than despair after getting hope.

But Jason became calmer than ever. The Six-Fingered Big Sister looked at him and said: "Jason. You have changed a lot. If it were in the past, you would definitely be very angry. Say something about finding trouble with them."

"Because, I have understood a truth recently." Jason's tone was calm enough to be scary. He said: "Talking is useless. No one will be afraid of me because I roar louder."

After finishing, he pursed his lips and walked toward the cellar entrance. Before going down, he said to the Six-Fingered Big Sister: "There will be such a situation, it must not be just us. The three streets nearby are all going to be renovated. That is to say. All the children gangs will be driven out."

The Six-Fingered Big Sister heard some bad premonitions. She asked: "What do you want to do? Jason! Jason... don't do stupid things, we can also go to other places to live..."

Pressing the manhole cover of the cellar, Jason smiled and said: "Go to other places? What if other places are also renovated?"

"If the entire Cat Getan is to be transformed into such a city bit by bit, transformed into a city that can allow everyone to have a place to live, do you think this will make our lives better?"

"No. Even if those houses can accommodate everyone, people with money and guns will occupy them. Even if the houses are left empty, even if we freeze to death on the street, they won't let us live in."

Jason closed his eyes and said: "In Cat Getan, we can't live on the mercy of others... and we don't need mercy anymore." ===== CHAPTER 837 =====
