Chapter 009: Manager of the Demolition Office

In the past, engaging in businesses such as sand mining, coal mining, quarrying, operating large trailers, running billiard halls, dance halls, gaming halls, and internet cafes required certain connections in the market

Say he is a good-for-nothing, a 15-year-old demolition project in a quality neighborhood, where a stubborn household relies on connections to refuse to move out, demanding an exorbitant price.

No matter how one puts it, Lin Shengwen is also a small leader in Tazhai, and above him, there is an older brother who is the big leader.

The captain is angry

Shengwen, do you know what the background of Hei Lao Wu is?

Lin Shengwen leaned against the car door and handed him a cigarette after Lin Yao arrived. While lighting it for him, he said: "Brother Yao, you just got back and are unaware of the complicated situation at home"

He went to someone else's house in the evening to negotiate terms, carrying a short knife in his briefcase. When the other party disagreed, he cut off his own little finger in front of them, frightening the family into agreeing to move out immediately, leaving no room to label him as timid or afraid of trouble

Due to the urban demolition, one must be particularly meticulous; the matters that require attention and those that need to be addressed cannot be clearly articulated in just a few words.

This person's situation is quite complex; one could say he is a tough character. In 2013, he got into a dispute over a romantic interest at a bar and was stabbed three times by two children around the age of fifteen or sixteen, which scared him so much that he lost control of his bladder

Early the next morning, as Lin Yao stepped out, he saw Lin Shengwen waiting at his doorstep in a Toyota Land Cruiser.

Brother Yao, you are now in charge of the demolition on Victory Road. Whatever you do, Uncle Hui is watching closely.

Without a word, a manager was parachuted down from above. Can this money still be earned easily

While in the car, Lin Shengwen briefly explained the situation of the demolition office to Lin Yao

Captain, it is already 8 o'clock. Manager Lin will be arriving soon. Should we make some preparations?

With a loud crash, the ashtray fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, startling the demolition workers present, who did not dare to breathe a word.

Lin Shengwen had done his homework before coming and stated directly: "Heih Lao Wu's original name is Zhang Youquan, he is 43 years old this year, and because he has a dark complexion and is the fifth child in his family, he is nicknamed Heih Lao Wu.

Where can I go? Shall I accompany you on a trip down Victory Road? Do you still wish to attend the meeting alone?

On the surface, they certainly would not dare to act overtly, but it is likely that they will engage in covert disobedience.

Captain, we are not familiar with the new Manager Lin. What do you think about...

Lin Yao is truly curious whether such a black old five would really be loyal and devoted to the second house

Lin Yao listened quietly, occasionally asking a couple of questions.

Frustrating, truly frustrating

When the reform and opening-up began, these audacious ruffians could be considered among the first group of individuals to venture into the sea of commerce

In general, once the demolition order is issued, it cannot be completed in less than three to five months

There is no need to mention it; others only regard our relocation office as a quiet government office. Who knows the benefits hidden within? Those residents who moved out left behind many items they did not want, such as old sofas, appliances, discarded trash, and even kitchen faucets, all of which are worth money.

In this old district of Victory Road, there are as many as 3,000 households. If each household dismantles one security door to sell as scrap metal, they could sell enough to buy a Mercedes-Benz 350. It is indeed surprising that the team leader is willing to share power with others

Can you not be angry? What wrong have I done to have an extra grandfather on my head? In the future, it will be difficult for us to enjoy delicious food and drink!

At this time of day, Lin Shengwen absolutely cannot get up; without any pressing matters, he can sleep until noon, and his wife does not even dare to wake him up

Dalong Real Estate has been stationed at the demolition office on Shengli Road for more than two months now

"What are you looking at? Am I the captain or are you the captain?"

Upon further inquiry, this matter was settled last night, yet there was not even a single person to inform him, leaving him bewildered with an unexpected title of Emperor Emeritus added to his head

Brother Yao

The demolition team leader of Victory Road, Hei Lao Wu, is someone brought in from outside by the second wife. Uncle Hui has arranged for you to go down, but Hei Lao Wu is likely to be dissatisfied

Lin Shengwen also lit a cigarette and said softly: "I will go with you today to see the situation over there. If it doesn't work out, we will replace him with someone from our third branch.

Among those who have mingled well, it is not surprising that their net worth has reached over 100 million now

Indeed, Captain, this person with the surname Lin seems to have come out of nowhere, suddenly becoming the manager. We are completely unaware of his background, so we must be cautious not to be put at a disadvantage.

Hehe, you probably haven't heard yet, but the manager who came this time is from the Third Room of the Taizhai. Our team leader is closely associated with the Second Room. Given that the team leader is so displeased, shouldn't anger account for half and surprise for the other half?

The personnel from the relocation office are discussing Lin Yao, while Lin Yao is also speaking about them.

Victory Road, this old urban area, was built in the early 1980s, consisting of buildings that are around forty years old, with windows made of iron

"Not satisfied?" Lin Yao lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and said: "I am the demolition manager of Victory Road, and Hei Lao Wu is just a team leader. What can dissatisfaction change?"

Uncle Hui will not concern himself with how many difficulties you face; he only cares about the results. You have just returned, and it is precisely the time to get things done, so you must not leave a bad impression on Uncle Hui

Heih Lao Wu, the leader of the demolition team, is responsible for both the demolition and the transportation of debris afterward. The back-and-forth process alone generates at least several million in profit

There was much discussion among the crowd; those responsible for the demolition not only drove people away but also had to address the issue of demolishing the old buildings after the residents were relocated

Calculating, he has held the position of demolition team leader for over four years, and the demolition team members beside him are all social idlers he recruited from outside

If you cannot suppress him and he constantly opposes you, your position as manager will also be difficult to maintain

As the demolition team leader of the Victory Road Office, Hei Lao Wu sat behind his desk, smoking one cigarette after another, allowing those below him to discuss among themselves.

When calculating, during the peak of Hei Lao Wu's power, the three giants of Ta Zhai were still uncertain about their purpose. However, today the situation has reversed; a rogue like Hei Lao Wu would probably find it difficult to even meet the uncles of Ta Zhai, and his status is even lower than that of Lin Shengwen, a mere underling.

A white small building near the intersection is the demolition office of Dalong Real Estate located on Shengli Road

Soon, an image of a once-dominant thug born in the early 1970s, who later gradually fell from grace, appeared in Lin Yao's mind

"This statement is indeed reasonable." Lin Yao nodded in understanding, realizing that rescuing Lin Shengwen was the right move. Without the life-and-death bond from last time, what reason would they have to help you and treat you as a brother

"Who says otherwise? But what can we do? Their surname is Lin, and they come from Tazhai. Who can afford to provoke them?"

Lin Yao glanced at the watch on his wrist; it was still not yet 7 o'clock

Of course, it is much like the saying about the black old five; standing by the river often leads to wet shoes

The matter of demolition is, in fact, quite profound.

He, Hei Lao Wu, is a prominent figure on the streets, commanding dozens of brothers under his leadership, yet he only received the order from Ta Zhai this morning

In a fit of anger, Hei Lao Wu waved his hand and knocked the ashtray off the table, sending it crashing to the floor

Shengwen, where are you going so early

In summary, it is all just various forms of procrastination. To clear out thousands of households in a few days is not relocation; it is akin to the Japanese invaders entering a village

Not looking at the monk's face but at the Buddha's face, Lin Shengwen personally provided him with protection, and Hei Lao Wu had to be somewhat cautious.

In 1998, he was sentenced to fourteen years for intentional injury. By the time he was released, he could no longer keep up with the changing circumstances. At that time, the second faction was recruiting, and considering his past reputation, they brought him into the demolition team.

In his earlier years, he was quite a notorious figure, having opened a karaoke hall in the 1990s, and he was quite well-known in the Dongshan area, regarded as a senior figure among the delinquents.
