First there was a muffled "thunk" sound, then a crisp "pop" sound. A lump appeared on the back of Ling Cang's head. The entire right half of his face became swollen.
Hong Xue didn't care who it was, but she let out all her anger. She grabbed Ling Cang by the collar and hit him in the lower abdomen.
Ling Cang screamed "Oh!" and fell to his knees with a "plop". He muttered: "It's broken... it's broken..."
Hearing the voice, Hong Xue and Tong Tong reacted and hurriedly helped Ling Cang up from the ground. As soon as Tong Tong touched Ling Cang's shoulder, Hong Xue pushed him away: "Crawl away. This is my husband."
"You..." Tongtong was startled for a moment. Then he grabbed Lingcang's collar and pulled her up forcefully: "You really want her to be your wife."
"It's broken..." Ling Cang grinned and said in pain, "It's over now..."
"What's broken?" Hong Xue wanted to check and found that Ling Cang was covering that spot with his hand. His face immediately turned red.
Ling Cang felt a sharp pain. He subconsciously touched down and felt that the precious part was still fine. Then, Ling Cang lowered his head and carefully looked down. Only then did he realize that the person who had been hit was his lower abdomen. .It’s still a few centimeters away from there.
"It's okay..." Ling Cang finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I said, please give me some face. Stop arguing."
The two girls snorted together. Hong Xue pointed at Tongtong's nose and said, "If you talk to this woman again, I will not be your wife from now on."
"I knew it would hurt..." Tongtong pointed back at Hong Xue and said, "If you find a girlfriend like this, you will be in bad luck sooner or later."
The two girls glared at each other. After a moment, they both snorted and turned away together. No one paid attention to Ling Cang.
Ling Cang struggled back to the apartment. He applied a piece of ice on his lower abdomen. He felt better. He called the two girls respectively.
The two girls were still very angry. They swore that they would kill each other and not allow Ling Cang to interact with each other in the future. Ling Cang tried hard and spent more than three hours. Although it failed to calm down the two girls' karmic anger, it was good. I roughly clarified the matter.
It turns out that the city government made a decision a few days ago to renovate a shanty town in the city. And any urban construction project has to face a long-standing problem of demolition. Especially the residents of the shanty towns have poor economic conditions and poor quality. And it's not high enough. This makes this problem particularly prominent.
Although there are always various conflicts and various conflicts accompanying various demolitions, there are still many people who have embarked on a prosperous road through demolitions, especially various gangs.
Hong Xue didn't know where he learned about the renovation plan in advance. He sent Hong Ming's gang to go to the shanty towns to build various houses and wait to earn compensation for demolition.
The current situation in the country is that information disclosure is poor and there is a lack of transparency. Therefore, gossip news is often more timely and accurate than official news. Before the residents of the shanty town hear about the renovation plan, the Hongming Gang has already obtained the planning map.
As for the amount of demolition compensation, it is said that a house with complete certificates and certificates is about more than 4,000 yuan per square meter. If a house with incomplete certificates works hard, you can get about 2,000 yuan.
The Hong Ming Gang just wanted to make this money. The houses they built were not intended to be inhabited. So it was absolutely unambiguous to cut corners. As a result, the buildings were all filled with junk VIPs. If the wind blows harder, they can all go down. Drop bricks.
This is normal. Many gangs rely on demolition compensation to survive. It can even be said that all matters related to land and real estate are monopolized by various gangs. This kind of business is semi-open and the officials are well aware of it. But because There are certain objective factors. No matter how determined you are to stop gangs from making profits, in the end a large amount of money will flow into the hands of these gangs.
As soon as the Hong Ming Gang took action, naturally no one dared to rob it. Now the shanty town was completely theirs. In terms of the profits that could be obtained this time, it was worth Hong Xue's personal control.
On the day Hong Xue and Shen Fanlei returned from the capital, the demolition officially began. Conflicts also broke out. The Hong Ming Gang mobilized a large number of people to station in those rubbish houses and stayed there 24 hours a day. Many of them were school students.
The reconstruction of shanty town is considered as a government image project. The demolition department and related developers cooperate in the demolition. Faced with the extremely high price offered by the Hong Ming Gang, both of them disagree. However, the latter two dare not force the eviction. Because the Hong Ming Gang's name is so famous, and as soon as they use force, the Hong Ming Gang members immediately lie down on the ground and pretend to be dead dogs. At the same time, they shout: "He's been beaten. He's been beaten to death."
It would be okay if Hong Ming's gang had fewer people, and the police could be mobilized to arrest them. However, there are hundreds of them, and the police would not dare to act rashly.
Generally speaking, developers and demolition departments usually also hire some gangs. It can be said that many gangs make a living in this way. But this time, all other gangs did not dare to come forward because coming forward meant confronting the Hongming Gang.
So after several failed negotiations, the two sides fell into a stalemate.
There has been a stalemate for several days. The demolition department is still negotiating. The developer can't sit still because he has to meet the construction deadline. They mobilize some workers and start work in the middle of the night. They plan to demolish two smaller houses first.
Clinker. The Hong Ming Gang actually had an undercover agent inside the developer. They got the news in advance. As a result, the two sides fought hard and alerted the police.
To be honest, the Hong Ming Gang went too far at the time. They mistook two passers-by for demolition workers and gave them a concussion. No matter why these two passers-by went for a walk in the shanty town at such a late hour, it was anyway. This incident angered the police. More than 20 people from the Hong Ming Gang were arrested at one time.
Although the tofu still stood there, this situation had never happened before. Hong Xue was furious.
It's a coincidence that the son of the owner of the developer is also in No. 1 Middle School and has a very good relationship with Tongtong. Today Hong Xue went back to the apartment to stay and happened to meet Tongtong. As a result, the two girls started to quarrel.
Tongtong was very sensible. First he accused the Hong Ming Gang of going too far. Then he suggested that he could use personal connections to invite the developer to come out and talk to Hong Xue in private.
But Hong Xue was not so considerate. She shouted to Ling Cang on the phone: "Your son is my boyfriend. If you don't protect me, I will stab you to death with a knife."
"I didn't say I wouldn't protect you..." Ling Cang reminded helplessly: "But don't forget. This conflict is between you, the developer, and the police. It has nothing to do with Tongtong directly."
"Tch, you kid has forgotten who Tongtong's father is." Hong Xue snorted heavily: "If Tong Haizhou hadn't spoken out, who would have dared to arrest so many of our Hong Ming Gang members at once..."
"Tong Haizhou is only performing official duties after all..."
"Bah." Hong Xue interrupted Ling Cang: "You really are crawling inside and outside. Why don't you say nice things to others?"
"I am just seeking truth from facts. Even if it was just acting at the time, the police must do this. Besides, can Tongtong control his father? How Tong Zhengrong arranges his work needs to be explained to his daughter."
"I didn't say Tongtong was in charge. I was just angry and took it out on her."
"But Tongtong has taken a high profile now and is willing to use personal connections to let you talk to the developer. If you can reach an agreement in private, then the next thing will be easier to handle."
"In that case..." Hong Xue hesitated for a while and finally agreed: "Let her set a time and place."
Ling Cang immediately called Tongtong back and quickly determined the specific details of the negotiation between the two parties.
The time was noon the next day. The place was in a private room of a high-end hotel. Ling Cang and Hong Xue went together. Tong Tong arrived early. A middle-aged man accompanying him was Qin Songbai, the owner of the development company. There was also a chubby man , the girl wearing a pair of glasses is Qin Ling, the daughter of Qin Songbai.
Qin Ling is a sophomore in high school and is a good friend of Tongtong.
Hong Xue and these people have known each other for a long time. After introducing Ling Cang, Qin Songbai said straight to the point: "According to the regulations, if you don't have a house without a license, you won't get a penny."
"Then you take it apart and show it to me." Hong Xue sneered and said nonchalantly: "But you are responsible for all the consequences."
"I know Hong Ming has a lot of help. But let me tell you, we have decided to resolve this matter within the scope of the law." Qin Baisong told Hong Xue in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "According to the law, you will not get a penny. If you dare to resist Law. That's fighting the entire state apparatus."
"Calm down for a moment." Ling Cang hurriedly smiled and said: "Everyone is here to solve the problem. It is not about comparing who is more powerful. It is not about showing off one's words."
As her boyfriend, Hong Xue had to give Ling Cang face in front of outsiders. In addition, what Qin Songbai said was the truth. So Hong Xue softened her tone: "It's hard for us to build a house. You guys take some I should use the money to make up for it, shouldn’t I?”
"We have already made concessions. We agreed to pay part of the construction costs for the house that we should not have paid a penny for. What else do you want?"
"Your fees are too low."
"The price you offered is just blatant extortion." Qin Baisong said, getting angry. He slapped the table: "You might as well go out and rob."
"Stop banging the table with me." Hong Xue also got angry: "I'm telling you, I'm stronger than you and I have more people than you."
Qin Ling wanted to persuade her father, but she didn't know how to speak. At this time, Tongtong spoke: "Today is a society ruled by law. Everything can be resolved according to the law. This is not a problem of more people and fewer people. If someone wants to override the law, Go up. I’m afraid the result won’t be too optimistic.”
Hong Xue immediately asked: "Who do you think is above the law?"
"Who builds a house illegally but still wants compensation?" Tongtong retorted: "Who beat people up when they went to demolish them? Who is this?"
