#88 - Chapter 88 Demolition! Hard Knife and Soft Knife!
Qin Lang thought that Chen Hao wanted to use his laboratory to research and develop that targeted drug.
But what happened?
In just three days.
The other party had already made the new drug!
Actually, during the last call, Chen Hao was indeed preparing to come to his laboratory in two days to do research and development.
But in the end, he changed his mind.
At least.
Only after formal cooperation and contractual constraints, he wouldn't need to be so defensive.
Subsequently, he handed the medicine bottle to Qin Lang, told him the dosage, and instructed: "Take it orally once a day, and let the researchers record the experimental data in real-time."
"Just like that?" Qin Lang asked.
Now, even if he was stupid, he understood that Chen Hao hadn't been late.
Without a legally binding cooperation, it was only natural for the other party to be defensive.
"Yes." Chen Hao nodded.
"How long will it take to see the effect?"
"Five days."
"So fast?!"
Qin Lang was shocked.
Then we'll see the results in five days!
At this moment, he felt both anticipation and anxiety.
Is this medicine really that magical?
"Let's go."
Walking out of the laboratory, Chen Hao looked at Xiang Yan: "I'll take you home."
Home?
Xiang Yan stared back blankly, unable to recover for a moment.
A few days ago.
After killing someone in anger, he fled.
But he found wanted posters of himself everywhere.
There was no escape.
He simply resigned himself to death!
Who would have thought there would be a chance to see his family again?
"Didn't you say..."
His lips trembled: "That I can't meet my family? How come again...?"
That day, Chen Hao claimed that for the next year or two, he shouldn't meet his family.
"So we're taking advantage of the dark," Chen Hao said with a chuckle.
......
It's now the year 2000.
As the largest city in China, Shanghai still cannot compare with later generations.
In later generations, those very prosperous areas are currently no different from rural areas.
For example.
A village called 'May Fourth'.
The Mercedes-Benz drove on a bumpy dirt road.
Chen Hao was driving.
Xiang Yan was giving directions.
When it comes to skill, he is much stronger than Lu Qingshan, with top-notch killing skills.
But in other aspects...
As an elite reconnaissance soldier, Lu Qingshan is an all-rounder, Xiang Yan can't even drive.
Gah!
The car made strange noises from time to time.
Obviously, the chassis was scratched again, this dirt road is too bad.
"Mr. Chen, we're almost there," Xiang Yan said in a low voice.
Chen Hao parked the car by the side of the road, got out of the car, and took a thick black plastic bag: "Let's go."
Can't continue driving!
Once the car is driven into the village, the sound may alarm the villagers.
Xiang Yan killed four people, and is essentially a criminal, so he can't be discovered.
On the way on foot, Xiang Yan introduced the village, and as the distance shortened, Chen Hao also saw a lot.
The village is home to more than two hundred households.
Nowadays...
Under a combination of soft and hard tactics, most of them have moved away.
As most of the villagers moved away, the houses were pushed down by the demolition company, filled with ruins and extremely desolate.
As if it had experienced a war.
"How much money did they give?" Chen Hao asked.
"Those beasts..."
Xiang Yan clenched his fists.
His knuckles cracked, and his eyes flashed with anger: "Depending on the size of the house and land, some were only compensated with a few thousand yuan, and the most was only ten thousand!"
"They want us to leave our hometown where we've lived for so many years, with our families, why?"
"With so little money, how will we live in the future?!"
The average price of houses in the urban area is two to three thousand.
Even in more remote areas, it's impossible to buy a house for ten or eight thousand.
The developers are simply eating people without spitting out bones!
Chen Hao didn't say anything.
As they got closer, he could see that there were still a few houses that had not been torn down, with faint yellow lights.
Not electric lights.
The power supply was forcibly cut off by the developers, and the villagers could only use candles and oil lamps.
"Go ahead," Chen Hao said in a low voice.
He followed into the village to see the current situation of May Fourth Village.
As for going to Xiang Yan's house...
First, he is an outsider.
When Xiang Yan reunites with his family, his presence will only be awkward.
Second.
The more people who go in, the easier it is to be discovered.
"Mr. Chen, how about... come in and sit for a while?" Xiang Yan hurriedly said.
"No need."
Chen Hao shook his head, and then said: "I have a task for you."
"Tell me!" Xiang Yan nodded.
"Let your family persuade the villagers to firmly disagree with the demolition!"
"But many people are afraid..."
"It's okay."
Chen Hao narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "As long as the villagers insist, I will send someone over tomorrow to ensure everyone's safety—you must not show your face!"
"Yes!"
"This, take it."
As he spoke, Chen Hao handed over the plastic bag he had taken when he got out of the car earlier.
Xiang Yan didn't know what was inside.
He opened it and took a look.
He was stunned on the spot.
Money!
Stacks of hundred-yuan bills!
"Mr. Chen, this... I can't accept it!" Xiang Yan's face changed drastically.
There was as much as one hundred thousand.
It was a huge sum for him!
"You saved me, and I saved you."
Chen Hao grinned: "Can we be considered to have a life-or-death relationship?"
He didn't need Xiang Yan to save him.
But Xiang Yan helped him, and that's a fact, right?
Xiang Yan was stunned.
A life-or-death relationship?
He didn't decline any further, put away the black plastic bag, gritted his teeth and nodded: "I understand!"
At this moment.
He had made a decision in his heart.
From now on, this life belongs to Chen Hao!
"Go ahead."
Chen Hao waved his hand: "I'll go back first, you can find me when you're done, no hurry."
He turned back the way he came.
Getting into the driver's seat of the Mercedes-Benz, Chen Hao dialed a number: "Sister Xia, have you found the information?"
"I found it."
Xia Qingyan nodded: "Shall I send someone to deliver it to you?"
"Are you at home?"
"I just left the company and was about to go home."
"Don't go home yet."
"Is something wrong?"
"Call Brother Lu, I have something to discuss—wait for me in the security department."
"Okay!"
Xia Qingyan vaguely realized that Chen Hao had something big to do.
......
It's now past nine o'clock in the evening.
Yunzhu Business Construction.
A local developer with a small reputation.
They still haven't gotten off work at this hour.
In the chairman's office, there were constant shouts and scoldings.
"You bunch of trash, you can't even deal with a few stubborn people, how dare you come and see me?!"
"I told you to use some means, but you caused several deaths!"
"Idiots! A bunch of idiots!"
"Now the police are involved, and even the higher-ups are alarmed, what should we do?!"
Gao Tianqiang was furious.
Several executives stood in a row, being pointed at and scolded one by one.
The May Fourth Village demolition project has encountered trouble.
It's a minor matter that they hurt the villagers.
The key is...
The people they sent to demolish were killed by a villager.
The murderer is wanted by the police.
This matter has blown up!
Once the situation seriously intensifies, many eyes will be on him, and he will not be able to continue violent demolition, otherwise, he may be caught.
The demolition progress will definitely be greatly affected.
"Boss!"
At this time.
A man with sneaky eyes stepped forward and said: "We can change the method."
"Speak!" Gao Tianqiang shouted angrily.
"Don't you know people? Those stubborn people, some of them have relatives and friends working here in the city, right? Or..."
Listening, listening.
Gao Tianqiang's anger disappeared.
Before, the method of using personal threats can't be used now.
What to do?
Hard knives won't work.
Then use soft knives!
After listening to the ideas of his subordinates, Gao Tianqiang laughed: "Not bad! You go and do this, and when you get rid of the remaining stubborn people, I'll give you a promotion and a raise!"
