Chapter 176
Lishui Village, brigade headquarters, the small conference room was packed with people, and even the courtyard was densely filled with people, and more were still rushing over.
They all worked in the city; upon receiving notice from home or hearing the news, they all ran back. This was a major event and could not be delayed. The house was worth tens of thousands, and they could also be allocated two apartment units; even if they weren't given leave, they had to come back, at worst they would just forgo this month's salary.
Yao Jun entered the conference room with Wu Cheng and the others, and immediately felt the atmosphere was somewhat tense. This surprised him a little; how could they make the atmosphere so tense just after starting the talk?
When he saw the negotiation representatives from Tenglong Company, he understood. There were seven people in total, wearing suits and ties, looking like human beings, but only one of them looked somewhat normal, wearing glasses and sporting a center-part hairstyle.
The other six were all burly men, two had shaved heads, one was missing an ear, and the remaining three had faces full of fierce flesh; who the hell wouldn't be afraid seeing this.
Seeing Yao Jun arrive, Guo Changjiu and Wan Shuhui let out long sighs of relief; the pressure the other side put on them was too great, and if Yao Jun hadn't come, they really didn't know if they could hold out.
Xu Ziwai was a newborn calf unafraid of the tiger, glaring at the other side with a face full of disdain and contempt.
"Section... Da Da Jun Ge!" Guo Changjiu just wanted to call him Section Chief, but hurriedly changed his words, "You're here, they don't agree to give compensation, and the house area must be replaced at a 1 to 1.5 ratio, but it doesn't include the houses we newly built."
Yao Jun smiled, glanced at the village party secretary and village head hiding in the back, and shook his head helplessly. If they didn't want to take advantage of this, they wouldn't have appeared here, then it wouldn't matter.
But since you have come, it proves that you also want benefits; as the village party secretary and village head, you should have come forward to represent the villagers to talk to Tenglong Company, but now you are hiding in the back, throwing the negotiation matter to Guo Changjiu and Wan Shuhui.
In this way, if the matter succeeds, they get the benefits without offending the developer. If the matter fails, they don't offend the villagers either; they are truly old and cunning.
"Have you thought it through?" The guy wearing glasses smiled, but his tone was very arrogant, "I am talking to you nicely here, you must seize the opportunity, don't let the opportunity pass, and then cry and howl begging me, by then you won't even have these conditions."
"Oh?" Yao Jun raised an eyebrow: "Can you tell me who you are? Can you represent Tenglong Company?"
Wan Shuhui cleared a space: "Da Da Jun Ge, you sit here."
The glasses-wearer lit a cigarette unhurriedly: "My name is Yan Shi, I am the Deputy General Manager of Tenglong Real Estate, responsible for this demolition and clearance work, as long as it is within the work I am responsible for, I can make the decisions."
"Good!" Yao Jun also lit a cigarette and sat down, "Since you can make the decisions, then I will state my conditions."
Yan Shi waved his hand and said arrogantly: "If it's the same as what they said, then don't waste my time."
Yao Jun took a puff of his cigarette: "Then we have nothing to talk about, you go back and tell Zhao Jianlong, if he agrees to our conditions, then sign the contract, once the money arrives, we will move. If he doesn't agree, it doesn't matter, you go build houses somewhere else."
Yan Shi's face suddenly turned cold: "You really don't know what's good for you."
Yao Jun smiled: "Face isn't given by others, but earned by oneself."
"Bang!" A bald man slammed the table heavily, "You're fucking courting death."
"Fuck your mother!" Xu Ziwai stood up and kicked the table, with a creak, the table legs rubbed against the floor, making a harsh sound.
The few people opposite hurriedly pressed the table with both hands, stood up at the same time, and looked at Xu Ziwai fiercely.
Xu Ziwai said fearlessly: "Come on, if you have the guts, carry me out of here."
Yao Jun patted Xu Ziwai on the shoulder and said to Yan Shi and the others: "Don't you dare act like hooligans with us, Lishui Village has over one hundred and thirty households, with nearly four hundred young and middle-aged people. If you think you are so badass that you can handle and kill all four hundred of us, then I have nothing to say."
"Right!" Someone shouted from the back, "Who are you trying to scare, I wasn't scared growing up either."
"Damn it!" Someone else shouted, "Coming to our Lishui Village to act tough, you didn't even bother to ask around."
"Fuck your mother, I'm courting death, come on and kill me."
"Acting like hooligans, actually acting like hooligans in our Lishui Village, who gave you the guts?"
In an instant, angry curses rose one after another in the small conference room, and even outside, curses could be heard.
The corners of Yao Jun's mouth curled into an imperceptible smile; if it weren't for the later investment in building houses, these villagers' hearts definitely wouldn't be united.
As long as Zhao Jianlong's attitude was tough, some people would think, forget it, exchanging a broken house for an apartment is already a profit, what more money do you want, better to avoid trouble.
But now it's different, every family has taken out real money to buy bricks and build houses, with some investing a few hundred, others two or three thousand, especially those who sold their houses to rebuild.
They really built as big as they could, even if they didn't use cement, they used yellow mud, the roof beams were trees cut from the mountains, and the roof was covered with straw, but buying bricks and hiring people, nearly ten thousand was thrown in.
It can be said that Zhou Andong's move kidnapped all the villagers, binding their interests together. You can't retreat even if you want to, because if you retreat, this money will go down the drain. If you don't want it to go down the drain, then charge forward and fight for your own interests.
Seeing that public anger had been aroused, the faces of the few guys also changed; Yan Shi put away his arrogant face, but still said toughly: "Then don't blame us." After finishing, he waved his hand, "Let's go!"
"Get lost!"
"Get lost!"
"If you don't agree to our conditions, don't come back."
Amidst the jeers and curses, Yan Shi and the others got into the car, their faces suddenly turning gloomy: "Ignorant bumpkins, do they really think I dare not do anything to them?"
One-Ear asked: "Brother Yan, what should we do next?"
Yan Shi snorted coldly: "Brother Xing said, within ten days, no matter what method is used, these bumpkins must be made to get lost. After going back, you gather people, bring bulldozers, come over at dawn, tie people up house by house, and then flatten the houses."
One-Ear gave a sinister laugh: "Damn it, you remember, that little brat who was shouting at us, tie him up tonight and give him a good bone-loosening."
Yao Jun left the conference room and said to the villagers surrounding him: "This developer, the big boss who is buying land to build buildings, is named Zhao Jianlong. Maybe some people know him, some don't, but regardless of whether you know him or not, I want to say one more thing, this person is the biggest hooligan boss in our Jiangzhou."
He never has a bottom line in his actions, today the negotiations didn't go through, and looking at Yan Shi's intention, they don't want to talk anymore, so they will definitely arrange for some thugs to carry out forced demolition.
Do you know what forced demolition is? It means not giving you a single cent, without any agreement, using violent means to demolish your house. By then, even after the building is built, there won't be a share for you.
Therefore, if everyone wants to protect their own interests, they must be united as one; if you are afraid of trouble and don't dare to stand up, what awaits you is homelessness."
