"What idea?"
Hearing that Du Chen had a new idea, Comrade Lao Du's eyes lit up. He hoped that Du Chen could come up with a good solution. The repair shop in the living area could not open during this period, causing many units' cars to come to the city for repairs. The back and forth between the living area and the city wasted time and was inefficient. Comrade Lao Du was under a lot of pressure.
"Draging it on like this isn't a solution. If they want us to move out, they can pay us money. They can find a bunch of excuses like lost work for renovations and ask them to pay us! We'll move if they pay us..."
Comrade Lao Du was very happy at first when he heard that Du Chen had a solution, but the more he listened, the more he frowned.
"Second brother, wait a minute, are you saying we should give up now?"
Comrade Lao Du's tone was somewhat dissatisfied, he didn't want to admit defeat just like that.
"How is that possible, Dad? This is just a delaying tactic."
Du Chen quickly explained to Comrade Lao Du.
"Oh, how about a delaying tactic?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen with a squint. He was already furious when he heard Du Chen say he wanted to take a step back.
"Dad, if we ask for compensation, will Liu Duan agree?"
"That's not necessarily true. I think he has a very tough attitude and probably won't agree."
Comrade Lao Du thought about it and felt that the other party would not agree to the compensation condition.
"What about the precinct?"
"The branch office should agree to smooth things over, right? After all, I'm there every day, and it doesn't reflect well on them. And I've already said that if they don't resolve the issue, I'll go to the railway bureau and complain. Several branch office leaders have spoken to me and that bastard separately recently. If we're willing to compromise and offer compensation, they should agree!"
Comrade Lao Du pondered for a long time and felt that the branch leaders would agree to their request for compensation in order to settle the matter.
"So, is the compensation paid by your unit or by the branch?"
“This…”
Comrade Lao Du frowned and thought for a while, feeling that Du Chen's question was a bit difficult.
"Given that this old bastard and I are on such a horrible terms right now, I'm sure he won't be willing to pay this. The prefecture certainly won't be willing to pay this either. I really can't imagine who would pay this!"
Comrade Lao Du thought for a long time but couldn't figure out who could pay the money, so he could only say to Du Chen helplessly.
"Dad, what you said makes sense. In my opinion, in the end, the unit may pay part of it, and the branch office may pay part of it."
"You have a point, but I just want to vent my anger. How much compensation can I get?"
Comrade Lao Du still spoke to Du Chen somewhat reluctantly.
"Dad, don't worry. I'm doing this to stabilize the other party. Even if we can't defeat them, we won't suffer any loss. Besides, I have a deeper reason for making them pay."
Du Chen looked at Comrade Lao Du with an indignant look on his face and could only express his dark thoughts, hoping to comfort Comrade Lao Du.
"Oh, tell me what else you have in mind."
Hearing that Du Chen had deeper thoughts, Comrade Lao Du became interested and asked Du Chen.
"Dad, let's talk about our current relationship with him. Even if the branch leaders asked him to pay compensation, I don't think he would be happy to pay, right? And he just came here and sought benefits for his brother-in-law. Doesn't it seem like he's not a clean person?"
Du Chen expressed his guess.
"Yes, you're right. I asked someone to find out. He was not a clean hand when he was the union chairman of the Shuofang City Depot. He's already been involved in corruption since he was transferred here as the section chief."
Last time Du Chen asked him to inquire about the other party, Comrade Du became concerned and found out through his former comrades and some colleagues. Unfortunately, there was no concrete evidence, otherwise he would have reported it to the railway bureau in his real name long ago.
"It's good that they're not clean. Then, do you think they'll do anything with the compensation we receive?"
Du Chen expressed his thoughts with a smile, and Comrade Lao Du's eyes lit up at that moment.
"Second brother, what do you mean?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen excitedly.
"That's right, right? If he dares to reach out, we'll chop off his claws! Isn't this ready-made evidence?"
Du Chen said to Comrade Lao Du with a smile, but this smile was extremely sinister.
"That's a good idea! Judging from the old bastard's behavior, the possibility of him extending his claws is basically 100%!"
Comrade Lao Du clenched his fists and muttered to himself excitedly, "As long as I can make the other party unlucky, even if I lose a little money, I won't hesitate." Ever since his family opened a shop at the school gate and then contracted a repair shop, Comrade Lao Du has always been successful. However, this incident was a blow to Comrade Lao Du, leaving him feeling very upset. Now that Comrade Lao Du has money and connections, he naturally can't swallow this humiliation.
"Dad, wait, I'm not finished yet!"
Looking at the excited Comrade Lao Du, Du Chen had to interrupt Comrade Lao Du's mumbling.
"Oh, what else is there? Tell me!"
"Dad, we can't take this lightly. Even if this city really does become what I predicted, it won't matter to the other party. After all, there must be someone behind them, and this is a personal matter between us. It's a big deal, but it's also a small matter!"
Du Chen saw things very clearly in his heart. He knew that such a small matter would not have much impact on the other party, and he had to find solutions from many aspects.
"Do you have any other suggestions?"
After hearing Du Chen's words, Comrade Lao Du calmed down. He knew that Du Chen was right, and the railway system was internally autonomous, so he naturally understood some things.
"Dad, please bring some to visit your old leader tomorrow!"
"Old leader? Are you talking about Mi Duan?"
Comrade Lao Du immediately realized that Du Chen was talking about Mi Duan.
"Well, isn't Mi Duan also at the branch office now? Ask him who's behind Liu Duan now. We need to be prepared, and maybe we can even get Mi Duan to join our side. You also need to continue to inquire about Liu Duan's former unit. It would be best if you could find some evidence of his corruption. If we're planning on taking action against him, we'll have to skin him alive!"
By the end, Du Chen was already filled with murderous intent. After his rebirth, Du Chen wanted most to make up for the regrets of his previous life and make his family happy, healthy and safe. Since the other party made Comrade Du unhappy, Du Chen decided to ask the other party to go!
"Tsk! Second brother, why are you so murderous?"
Comrade Lao Du was also shocked by Du Chen's last words, and asked Du Chen with some concern.
"Dad, we don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of it either! Just because we're easy to talk to doesn't mean we're easy to bully! Since the other party has made you unhappy, I wouldn't dare say I'll destroy their family, but I can definitely make their whole family live in turmoil!"
Du Chen expressed his true feelings to Comrade Lao Du.
