Before Huang Hongwei came, he had thought that the Feng family would definitely retaliate. After all, it was a large family with deep roots. How could they not have any complaints? This was a slap in the face.
Of course, he also knew that the Feng family would eventually agree to his request.
When you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
In the face of the general trend, the Feng family cannot go against the government.
Unless everyone in the Feng family is out of their minds.
Of course, the Feng family has achieved what it has today because of the smart people there, such as the father and son in front of us, who are definitely smart people.
However, he did not expect that Old Master Feng would make a decision so quickly.
This actually made him feel shocked and impressed.
He is indeed Old Master Feng.
This kind of courage is not something that ordinary people can match.
Moreover, they didn't say anything about compensation.
Huang Hongwei thought to himself that the compensation was really too low.
"Thank you, Mr. Feng, for your understanding of the righteousness of the cause. On behalf of the government and the people, I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to you for your strong support for the government's work."
Huang Hongwei stood up and bowed to Old Master Feng.
This attitude is very good.
Old Master Feng waved his hand and said with a smile, "You're too polite. This is what we should do. Only when there is a country can there be a home. Every Chinese person will do this. You don't have to be polite, and you don't have to thank me."
After a pause, he said, "Do you have anything else to say?"
See, this is an order to expel you.
Huang Hongwei naturally knew that Old Master Feng must be holding a grudge. If he continued chatting like this, it would be too cruel to him. He was probably waiting for him to leave so that he could vent his anger.
So he asked to leave.
"Gongji, please see the guests off."
Old Master Feng said, "I'm not feeling well, so I won't be able to see you off in person."
"Mr. Feng, please don't send me off. I can't bear it. Only when you are healthy can we, the younger generation, feel at ease."
Huang Hongwei is gone.
It was Feng Gongji who sent him there personally.
When Feng Gongji came back, he heard a loud crash from a distance.
When I walked into the living room, I saw broken pieces all over the floor.
The housekeeper stood anxiously by the side, waiting. The two teacups on the table had been smashed to pieces, and some tea leaves were still on the ground.
"That's too much!"
Old Master Feng slammed the table with his hand, his face terribly gloomy.
Feng Gongji waved his hand, signaling the housekeeper to go out first.
He made another cup of tea for the old man, then sat down in Huang Hongwei's seat and sighed, "He's really going too far. I didn't expect him to do this. I thought he would just let it go. It seems I underestimated Tang Xiaobao's influence."
"Do you think Tang Xiaobao is behind this?"
Old Master Feng asked in a muffled voice.
Feng Gongji shook his head. "Not really, but without his influence, the government wouldn't have made such a decision. Actually, this piece of land of our old house has been coveted by many people for many years. This time, they finally got the chance. There's nothing we can do about it."
"So what do you think now?"
"idea?"
Feng Gongji paused for a moment before speaking, "Since he's brought this up, we have no right to refuse. We know this is a slap in the face to our Feng family, but we have no choice but to go along with it. He's in the right. There's nothing we can do. First, our Feng family must keep a low profile in the future. To put it bluntly, we have to keep our tails between our legs. Second, since this place has to be demolished, we can't just do it like that. We have to find a way to compensate us and gain greater benefits for the family."
"You're just going to behave like a human being with your tail between your legs?"
Old Master Feng shook his head bitterly: "I never thought that after decades of roaming across China, I would be slapped in the face like this when I am old, and forced to behave myself like this. This is really the biggest irony——"
"dad!"
Feng Gongji also felt uncomfortable.
Waving his hands, Old Master Feng said, "Don't comfort me. I understand the principle of knowing shame and then being brave. Besides, things are far from over. Maybe there will be a turning point."
When he said this, a hint of cruelty and a hint of hope flashed in his eyes.
"What if Tang Xiaobao died suddenly?"
Feng Gongji was shocked and his face changed drastically: "Dad, Uncle Weng--"
"Yes, he went to Bazhong."
Old Master Feng didn't want to hide this from his youngest son, the only one still intact and the one he cherished the most. However, he didn't want to dwell on this matter and immediately changed the subject, saying, "You're right. You should keep your tail between your legs. Then how do you plan to gain more benefits and profits for the family?"
"It's simple. We have to be involved in this urban renewal project. Coincidentally, this falls within our scope of business."
In just a short while, Feng Gongji had come up with a solution.
Old Master Feng frowned and said, "Will the government let us do it? That seems unlikely. If it were in the past, there would definitely be no problem, but now, it's hard to say."
Feng Gongji replied, "I have a few friends who should have a say in this matter. I also believe that Mr. Huang won't go too far. This is also thanks to your straightforward agreement just now, Dad. He should be grateful for this favor. Besides, we are just participating and don't take the lion's share. In his eyes, it's not a big deal. But for us, the benefit is not just the profit. More importantly, it can increase our industry reputation. You know, projects like this are hard to come by. Once they are done well, they become qualifications."
After saying that, he looked at his father.
Old Master Feng looked at his youngest son in front of him and suddenly felt infinite emotion.
After a while, he suddenly sighed and said, "If you had come out to work earlier, the Feng family wouldn't be in such a mess. If I had known earlier, I would have handed this family over to you earlier."
"No, Xiaoxiao is more suitable than me, and you know, I'm not really interested in these things."
Feng Gongji immediately expressed his opinion, and he spoke very seriously.
Old Master Feng hesitated to speak and could only sigh in his heart.
Having such a son is his pride, and he should also be the pride of the Feng family. He can lead the Feng family to new glory. Unfortunately, a hero cannot resist the temptation of a beautiful woman. He cares so much about the old things in the past. It is really a bad fate.
At this time, the old man's thoughts were very complicated. Many past events came to his mind one by one, making him feel mixed emotions.
Suddenly, the butler came out from behind the screen and said respectfully, "Master, there's a call for you."
"Go get it."
The old man was stunned, but still gave the order.
The housekeeper went back to the backyard.
Feng Gongji moved an old red telephone from the corner of the table in front of the old man.
Old Master Feng answered the phone and only listened to a few words.
Bang!
The phone fell from his hand and hit the table, and he seemed to have suddenly lost all his strength and collapsed to the ground.
