Chapter 73 The Black-Hearted Real Estate Traders"Yes . " w.a.n.g Feng nodded, his eyes being a little moist . This was the first time he came back here after graduation for more than a year . He had gone back to the Zhu Hai University with Bei Yunxue, but they didn"t come here . Thinking of this, a sense of shame filled up his heart .
Living in the Hong Zhu district, Gu Ping was lucky to meet good people like Aunt Cai . The same went for w.a.n.g Feng—when he was studying at Zhu Hai University, he also met good people like Uncle Li .
He couldn"t even remember how many times he had scrounged free meals here . And Uncle Li had dealt with his wounds dozens of times after he was beaten to bleed .
In his heart, Uncle Li was a family member of his .
"Who is this?" Li Zhenglin suddenly noticed Bei Yunxue who aroused a trace of surprise and envy in his eyes .
The fine appearance of Bei Yunxue could attract the attention of all ages . Li Zhenglin was no exception .
"This is my girlfriend, Bei Yunxue . " w.a.n.g Feng answered, and then turned to Bei Yunxue, "This is Uncle Li . He helped me a lot when I studied in university . I"ve always regarded him as one of my families . "
"Nice to meet you, Uncle Li . " Bei Yunxue understood w.a.n.g Feng"s words, so she immediately greeted Li Zhenglin with a sweet smile .
"Haha, good . Let"s go . I"ll take you to the private room . " He led the way in front while speaking . It could be told from the smile on his face that he felt happy because w.a.n.g Feng suddenly came back to see him .
"Oh? What"s that smell?" Bei Yunxue abruptly asked with her eyebrows slightly knitted .
"Oh gosh! The food is overcooked . " Uncle Li cried out, and rushed to the kitchen, leaving it undone to take w.a.n.g Feng and Bei Yunxue to the private room .
"Well, let"s go to the private room first . " w.a.n.g Feng uttered . Obviously, he knew where the private room was .
After a while, Uncle Li had finished cooking, and came to the private room where w.a.n.g Feng and Bei Yunxue stayed as well . This room was still the same as before . But coming here again had stirred w.a.n.g Feng"s emotion .
Time flew fast; the past years would never come back . Such a thought made w.a.n.g Feng melancholy .
"You haven"t been here for more than a year . I didn"t expect you"re willing to come back today . " Li Zhenglin said ironically .
"Uncle Li, don"t say that! I left Zhu Hai as soon as I graduated . And I came back only recently . " w.a.n.g Feng explained with a smile . But there was still some shame in his heart .
"You know . I didn"t mean it . Then, will you leave again?" Li Zhenglin glanced at w.a.n.g Feng and asked .
"Perhaps, no! I"ll develop my career in Zhu Hai in the future . And maybe I will come to you often for free meals!" A smirk climbed on w.a.n.g Feng"s face .
"Alas . " Uncle Li made a long sigh, "I"m afraid that you can"t find me here anymore . "
"Oh? Why? Did something bad happen?" w.a.n.g Feng discovered the problem keenly .
"Yes . " Uncle Li nodded at him, and then explained, "This area was sold to a real estate boss . And we should move out after another month . "
"But isn"t it a good thing?" w.a.n.g Feng got stunned for a second, and then asked .
Although this area was not a prime location, with Zhu Hai University, the money tree here, it was certain that the developers would aim at it . A shop here would definitely receive a large sum of compensation .
"Good thing?" Uncle Li shook his head with a gloomy face, "The total compensation I can receive is less than two hundred thousand yuan . What can you do with only two hundred thousand yuan in Zhu Hai?! It"s far less than the price I bought this store!"
"What?" His words shocked not only w.a.n.g Feng, but also Bei Yunxue .
The present house price in Zhu Hai was fifteen thousand yuan per square meter . Uncle Li"s store occupies at least 70-80 square meters . Even if to sell it, the price should be far more than two hundred thousand yuan .
And even if the compensation was lower than the basic house price, it was still far from two hundred thousand yuan . There must be something fishy .
"Uncle Li, why? How can it be possible to just compensate so little money?" It was Bei Yunxue who asked . Although she didn"t charge in real estate in her family, she still knew that Uncle Li might have been cheated from his description .
"Not just me . It"s all the same in this area . This is not our decision . " Uncle Li replied, and his face became more bitter .
It was impossible for him to live in Zhu Hai with such a low compensation . Therefore, he was planning to go back to his hometown after receiving the compensation .
Without any power and influence to fight against the developers, he could only accept his fate .
"What happened exactly?" Bei Yunxue continued to ask .
"Well, let me explain to you . . . " Uncle Li revealed a bitter smile, and then told everything .
This area would be demolished, including shops and dwelling houses . And it would be a large-scale demolition . All the buildings needed to be rebuilt into mansions to save the land .
This should have been a good thing for the residents, because they could get a large sum of compensation, with which, they could choose to continue living here or take the money to other places . Therefore, many residents of old houses were eager for real estate developers to buy their houses .
However, this area was a special case . The compensation for the vast majority of people was only two hundred thousand yuan, and for those with small houses was less than two hundred thousand yuan .
Such a small amount of compensation was like a handout for beggars . So, the announcement of the compensation plan had aroused public indignation of all people .
The residents here had sued the developers to the government, but they were told that it would not be accepted . After that, they were even beaten by some unidentified people, and now, many of them were lying in the hospital .
In the end, they could only come to the conclusion that the developers seemed to have a great background . Since the government and businessmen were colluding together, they ordinary people could only accept the result .
"Why don"t you call the police?" Bei Yunxue was confused, and her complexion became gloomy as well .
"We did, but it was useless . And when we came back from the police station, we were, once again, beaten by the thugs they hired . Now everyone gets scared . " Uncle Li answered, and shook his head with a sigh .
They were just a group of ordinary people . How could they be able to compete with those developers who were rich and had a great background?
"Humph . " w.a.n.g Feng hit the table mercilessly and stood up .
He had heard a lot of black-hearted developers . But how dared they have the nerve to damage Uncle Li"s interests?! This was absolutely what he couldn"t tolerate .
The store of Uncle Li was worthy of nearly a million yuan, but it would be compensated with only two hundred thousand . These two numbers were quite different! How could the developer be so black-hearted?
"What are you going to do?" Freaking out to see that gloomy face of w.a.n.g Feng, Uncle Li cried out .
"Uncle Li, what is the name of this developer?" w.a.n.g Feng asked with a sullen face . He was now overwhelmed by a violent killing intention .
Do harm to other people, w.a.n.g Feng could ignore it; but to Uncle Li, he couldn"t . He would never sit by .
"Don"t be impulsive! You can"t afford to provoke those people . " Uncle Li hurriedly grabbed w.a.n.g Feng, because he was quite familiar with w.a.n.g Feng"s impulsive temper .
"Haha, Uncle Li, why do you think so?" w.a.n.g Feng smiled coldly, "Tell me the name of their real estate company, Uncle Li!"
"w.a.n.g Feng, forget about it! I can get at least two hundred thousand yuan . It is better than nothing . " Making a bitter smile again, Uncle Li loosened w.a.n.g Feng"s hand, and then sat down on a chair .
"Uncle Li . " Uncle Li"s att.i.tude made w.a.n.g Feng a little bit angry . How could Uncle Li be so cowardly, even after his interests was damaged?
"Alright, if you don"t tell me, I"ll go to ask other people . " w.a.n.g Feng said angrily, and turned around, leaving the private room .
"Xiao Feng, come back!" Seeing that, Uncle Li shouted out .
"If you really want to know, I"ll tell you . But I hope you do nothing to me . You can"t defeat them . They are so many . "
"Just tell me, which company?" w.a.n.g Feng stopped, and asked again .
"Long Yuan Estate, one of the several large developers in our Zhu Hai City . " Uncle Li seemed to be compromised, and answered with a sigh .
"Long Yuan Estate?" This name was a little familiar to w.a.n.g Feng . But at present, he couldn"t remember where he had heard of it .
However, no matter what kind of real estate company it was, he wouldn"t let it damage the interests of ordinary people . They turned nearly a million yuan into two hundred thousand . How black were their hearts?
"Uncle Li, don"t worry about this matter anymore . I"ll handle it . " Then he went to his chair, sat down, and took out his phone .
The first call he made was to Yao Cheng whom he hadn"t contacted for a long time . Yao Cheng was not only a famous dude in the Zhu Hai City, but also an official in the government .
So, he was the most appropriate one to deal with such collusion between government and businessmen .
The phone was connected soon, and Yao Cheng"s sounded unexpected on the other side of the phone . After all, w.a.n.g Feng hadn"t contacted him for a long time indeed .
"Brother Yao, can you do me a favour?" Having no time for chattering, w.a.n.g Feng went straight to the point .
"What?" Yao Cheng was obviously outraged after knowing what had happened to Uncle Li .
Government should have been a place to work for the citizen"s grievances . But now, there existed collusion between officials and businessmen, which was a humiliation for government .
"You wait there for me, and I"ll get here in twenty minutes . " Then, Yao Cheng directly hung up the phone .
Hearing the toots coming from the phone, w.a.n.g Feng dialed another call to He Tian .
"Brother He, I don"t know among your people, who is responsible for the area near the Zhu Hai University . " w.a.n.g Feng went right to the point again .
"A man named A Liang . What"s up?" He Tian was somewhat confused .
"Not a big deal . Let him go to the Zhu Hai University later! I need his help . " Finishing speaking, he hung up the phone directly . He was confident that He Tian wouldn"t refuse him .
This dark Long Yuan Estate! w.a.n.g Feng would let them take out all the black money they had earned .
"Li Uncle, do you know where is the person in charge of the Long Yuan Estate?" He turned to Uncle Li who got a little stunned, asking .
Uncle Li didn"t know whom w.a.n.g Feng just called . But from w.a.n.g Feng"s tone, he seemed to have known something . Perhaps, the ones whom w.a.n.g Feng just called were both high-standing people in the Zhu Hai City .
"They set up an office at the end of the street, and all their people are there . " Uncle Li answered, without concealing .
"Okay . Then, Uncle Li, don"t do your business today . Please go to take those people here . I"d like to see how powerful this Long Yuan Estate is . " After a sneer, w.a.n.g Feng pushed the door open and walked out of the private room . He spoke to the diners in the store, "Dear students, there will be a meeting here . Can you please leave now? And you don"t have to pay . "
Although being kicked out of the store for no reason made them uncomfortable, they still left after noticing the indifferent expression on w.a.n.g Feng"s face . Anyway, they didn"t have to pay, and they were happy to receive a free meal .
