Looking at the more than a hundred villagers in simple clothes in front of him, almost all of whom were elderly, Brother Wu sighed.
Behind the prosperity of Xiangjiang is endless evil!
Although small villages like Dashaling Village are close to the city center and less than two kilometers away from the westernmost edge of Central, their living conditions are not that good. Most young people have gone out to work.
So, the more than 100 villagers in front of us are all elderly people left behind.
The entire Dashaling Village is said to be filled with people who fled the war decades ago. They slowly gathered here to form a small village. Although there are only a few hundred people in the village, there are dozens of Surname.
Because Dashaling Village is close to the city center and has a superior geographical location, it should develop well. It should be able to live well by relying on rental income.
In fact, since the villagers in Dashaling Village are not very wealthy, the buildings here are basically one-story, and some are even just built with adobe bricks. Occasionally, there are only a few buildings with three or four floors. Lou, this is already the best-off family in the village.
How many wealthy homeowners can be found in such a small village by renting out their homes?
The villagers here mainly make a living by growing vegetables. Many villagers will take the vegetables to the city center to sell them. However, there is not much arable land in Dashaling Village, so they cannot make a fortune by growing vegetables.
Originally, demolition is a good thing for many people.
When Real Estate first started communicating with them about the demolition, many villagers had imagined that they could move to the city through the demolition fees.
However, after the final demolition plan came out, the villagers completely lost their illusions.
The demolition plan of Real Estate, let alone demolition at a premium, does not even reach half of the market price of the land value. Such demolition compensation will not allow them to buy houses in the city, let alone in the suburbs. rise.
Therefore, they decisively and collectively rejected Land’s demolition plan.
The Land Real Estate Group is not a vegetarian. Jardine Taipan directly found the leader of Xin Yian and asked them to deal with this group of villagers who were regarded as unruly villagers by the British within a month.
As a result, the hard days for the villagers of Dashaling Village came.
Being targeted by a society, especially since Xin Yian is one of the four major societies in Hong Kong, wanting to deal with this small village is nothing more than a small matter for Xin Yian.
Intimidation, beatings, arson and making trouble, in just a few days, the villagers suffered a lot.
There was even an old man who was so intimidated that he fell to the ground and took advantage of him.
After being harassed and threatened every day, the villagers had no choice but to call the police.
But every time the police came, they were just going through the motions and didn't take them seriously at all. They basically just looked at them casually, said a few words and left.
As soon as the police left, these gangsters quickly received the news and continued to harass the villagers.
After several times, the villagers already knew that the Royal Police was working with a British-owned enterprise like Land, so what was the use of them calling the police?
Furthermore, because the villagers all knew how powerful the Xinyi'an Association was, they did not dare to call the young people back.
If young people get into a fight with Xin Yian when they come back and end up dying, they, the elderly, will definitely not be able to bear it. These old people can only bear such oppression silently.
This was the beginning of the scene. The villagers collectively went to the Shanghuan training base to see if they could get help from the martial arts instructor. Although the chance is slim, as long as there is a chance to change the status quo, they all want to try.
If they agree to land and receive a meager demolition fee, then the final result will be that they have no choice but to wander, lose their home, and cannot afford to buy outside. Old people like them want to work but they can’t afford it. No one wants me, so what can I do if I don’t wander?
"Everyone, I already know about your matter. If I can help, I will definitely help. You go back first. I will find a way to investigate what happened and see if I can help. , if you gather here, it will affect our normal work, and I hope everyone can understand our difficulties," Brother Wu said loudly.
Brother Wu can actually understand the thoughts of these villagers. Their current situation is that they are in urgent need of medical treatment.
After all, even calling the police is useless, so what should I do? I can only see if there is a chance to get help elsewhere.
After Brother Wu finished speaking, the scene finally became quiet.
After a while, an old man came out, stood in front of Brother Wu, and said solemnly: "Instructor Wu, I am Zhang Aiguo, the head of Dashaling Village. I know this matter and It doesn't matter to you, but we are really desperate and don't know who to look for anymore.
I also understand that it is a matter of friendship for you, Coach Wu, to help. It is natural for you not to help. No matter what, I will disturb you. You are really sorry, and I hope that if you are able, you can help us.
We will not let the martial arts instructors do it for nothing. There are nearly two hundred households in our village, although most of them are poor. , but we can raise money. How much money do you want to help us? We will try our best to raise enough money. As long as Xinyi'an no longer deals with us, we will be satisfied."
After the village chief Zhang Aiguo finished speaking, he knelt down directly.
After the village chief knelt down, more than a hundred elderly people behind him also knelt down.
"Old people, please get up quickly. If you do this, my life will be shortened. In addition, I don't have the final say in the company. I have to ask the boss. If the boss doesn't agree, don't embarrass me. You Go back first!" Brother Wu hurriedly walked aside, not wanting to stand in front of them.
These old people are now kidnapping him with morality. This makes Brother Wu helpless even though he has seen the world, but he can't say anything.
After all, from their affairs, Brother Wu can also feel that these villagers are desperate. If they were not forced to have no choice, they would not ask for help as a strange neighbor.
He had seen this kind of thing many times before.
Before he could, he had stayed out of the matter, so there was not much pressure. After all, he was not a savior.
But now, these people are all coming for him, which makes it a little difficult for him.
However, no matter what, he will investigate the incident first and then ask his boss for his opinion.
He is not an impulsive person and will not take the initiative to cause trouble for his boss.
Of course, if the boss is willing to take on such trouble, Brother Wu who can help will certainly do it.
Because, in fact, in Xiangjiang today, Brother Wu basically has no one to fear.
"In that case, let's ask Coach Wu. These bullies torture us old men and women like this day in and day out. I'm afraid our bodies won't be able to bear it any longer." Village Chief Zhang Aiguo sighed and took the lead. He stood up and bowed slightly to Brother Wu.
Looking at the departure of more than a hundred elderly people, Brother Wu stood for a long time without turning back. (End of this chapter)
