"Yes, yes, I don't know anything."
The secretary saw through it but didn't say anything. The task Li Junyang had given him was, to put it bluntly, to play the bad cop, so that Li Junyang could become the good guy, gain Jiang Yu's trust, and then slowly lure the prey into the trap.
The secretary knew exactly what to do; he had done the same thing for Li Junyang many times before.
"Okay, that's settled then. I'll go inside first. If there are any more dissatisfied people causing trouble here, you can help me deal with them. Once we get all these people together, I'll handle it all at once."
Li Junyang gave a cold laugh without showing any emotion. His family was in the real estate business, and he had seen the same situation far too many times. He had plenty of ways to deal with these troublemakers.
Whether it's a literal solution or a more abstract one, Li Junyang can do it.
"Yes, young master!"
The secretary bowed respectfully, "Young Master, please take care."
Only after Li Junyang walked into the street office and disappeared from sight did the secretary dare to straighten up and let out a long sigh.
Looking back at the crowd, the secretary found Jiang Yu's location, her eyes filled with pity.
"Another girl is going to be ruined. Sigh... Come to think of it, the young master is really quite wicked."
The secretary shook his head. Although he knew what kind of scum Li Junyang was, to him he was just a worker. The Li family paid a lot of money and had good benefits, so the secretary was willing to help the wicked and do some shady things.
The so-called pity was just a fleeting emotional fluctuation. He who eats another's food is bound to do the same; since he accepted the Li family's high salary, he should help deal with these dirty tricks.
As for those girls who were harmed by Li Junyang, aren't they pitiful?
The secretary hadn't even considered it.
If I felt sorry for them and then helped them betray the Li family, then...
The only one who's pitiful is yourself.
And if you pity them, who will pity you?
Soon, the secretary regained her composure and turned to walk into the street office, but in a different direction from Li Junyang.
The sun gradually rose higher and higher in the sky, and before we knew it, it was around ten o'clock, almost noon.
The long queue finally reached Jiang Yu.
"Hello, please follow me."
Looking at the staff member leading the way, Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she had finally reached the front of the line. She then quickly followed after him in her wheelchair.
Having queued for the entire morning, Jiang Yu felt she was about to faint from the sun if it wasn't soon her turn.
Jiang Yu didn't take the incident that just happened seriously.
She's just here to go through the motions; she doesn't intend to take the house, just want some money.
For Jiang Yu, her home had lost all warmth after her grandmother's passing and burial in the cemetery. She wasn't the type to dwell on memories of her grandmother; on the contrary, continuing to live in the house would only make her more depressed.
The deceased is gone, but she has to live in the place where her grandmother lived every day. Everything she comes into contact with and sees becomes a burden for Jiang Yu, weighing heavily on her heart and making it hard for her to breathe.
Jiang Yu found a small jade pendant that her grandmother had worn before her death, carefully put it around her neck, and planned never to take it off again. As long as the jade pendant was there, her grandmother would always be with her.
Grandma lives on in her heart.
...
Urban village subdistrict office.
This place was temporarily requisitioned by the Li family to handle the demolition compensation issue. Jiang Yu came to an office and looked at the man in a suit and tie in front of her, who was flipping through his own documents over and over with a furrowed brow. Her heart gradually tightened.
Although I don't care about the amount, judging from this situation...
Hopefully nothing unexpected will happen.
"Miss, your paperwork is not quite complete."
As Jiang Yu had predicted, the ominous premonition seemed to have become a reality. The person in front of her looked up at Jiang Yu. He was Li Junyang's secretary, and at this moment he was playing the good cop as Li Junyang had instructed.
"How could that be? I prepared the materials exactly according to your requirements, where is the problem?"
Jiang Yu quickly asked.
After receiving the news, Jiang Yu had already obtained all the necessary documents from the neighborhood committee, and everything was complete. Why did they still say there was a problem with the documents?
"The area of your house does not match the data we obtained from the on-site inspection. You lied about it, didn't you?"
The secretary adjusted her glasses, then pointed to the documents Jiang Yu handed over and said slowly, "We need to calculate the actual area, not some small courtyards, corridors, or anything like that. You can't add those in, don't you know?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu was somewhat dumbfounded, "No...can't we add it?"
She really didn't know that.
But Jiang Yu also asked other residents in the urban village who were being relocated. Everyone had added extra square meters and no one had any problems. Some even added as much as 50 square meters and were not found out. Why was it that only she was not allowed to do it?
"Absolutely not. Our money at Qingshan Real Estate doesn't grow on trees. How could we let you add it just like that? We have to pay for every extra square meter, do you understand?"
"I'm telling you girls, why don't you ever study properly? All you do is think about is how to take advantage of others."
"Speculation and profiteering!"
The secretary righteously rebuked Jiang Yu, but secretly she was overjoyed.
He could tell at a glance that Jiang Yu was a naive and innocent student.
In her case, it's really not a big deal.
—Who says your own yard isn't considered part of the actual area?
However, it was also Jiang Yu's bad luck that she was targeted by her young master. Even if the secretary let it go this time, she would find other ways to nitpick and cause trouble for Jiang Yu.
"I'm sorry, I really don't know. I'll just remove it then, you can continue calculating."
Jiang Yu's face flushed slightly. This feeling, similar to being caught red-handed stealing, made her feel a little flustered. "Anyway...anyway, I just need the money. You don't need to buy me a new house."
I should have asked Xia Che first...
Jiang Yu felt somewhat regretful.
There was nothing Xia Che didn't understand, but Jiang Yu felt that Xia Che was already busy enough every day, and it was best not to bother him with things she could handle herself, so she didn't say anything.
"What? You want money too?"
The secretary's eyes lit up, and an idea came to her. "Why don't you do what the others do and choose to exchange your property for a house of equal value?"
"No change."
Jiang Yu shook her head decisively.
She was waiting to finish this matter so she could move to Lishiquyuan and become Xia Che's neighbor.
We can go to and from school together, and we can also go out and play together during holidays. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
Why choose a replacement house when you can't eat or drink from it...?
