Su Xiaotian clearly heard the discussions of these people and the arrogant words of those opposite.
She felt even more distressed for the elderly Grandpa Su and Grandma Su, who were confronting a group of people like bullies at this moment.
Su Xiaotian walked over and stood in front of Grandpa Su and Grandma Su.
However, Grandpa Su pulled her behind him.
"Xiaotian, you stand behind. I've already gone to find your father!"
Su Xiaotian shook her head firmly.
How could she hide behind the elders when her white-haired grandfather and grandmother stood so resolutely in front of a few people to protect their property from invasion?
Besides, these people appearing here must mean something.
If she didn't step forward and clarify things today, these people would definitely not reveal their true intentions.
"Speak, what is your purpose?"
As Su Xiaotian said this, the few people opposite exchanged glances and smiled.
"Here comes someone sensible. Since you asked, we won't hide it from you." The leader was clearly a minor official.
"Speak!" Su Xiaotian said expressionlessly.
It was almost as she had guessed. Someone was behind this, and these people were merely pawns.
"Don't blame us. Someone arranged for us to do this."
Seeing Su Xiaotian's indifferent expression, the man suddenly felt a little guilty.
Opposite them stood only two elders and a young girl, yet this combination suddenly made him feel fearful.
It was as if the person in front of him was not to be trifled with.
"No need for so many explanations, just state your purpose directly!" Su Xiaotian said impatiently.
She didn't know why, but she suddenly felt so disappointed.
Perhaps it was because these people were also government officials, yet they were acting as lackeys.
A good society was ruined by people like them.
Su Xiaotian's calm words made the other party even more ashamed, but since they had come this far, no matter how embarrassed they felt, they had to speak with a thick skin.
"Someone has taken a liking to your building and wants you to sell!"
Su Xiaotian sneered.
So that was it. They had been targeted.
Su Xiaotian snorted and said, "They like it and want us to sell, so instead of negotiating with us, they directly threaten us?"
"We sent someone to ask before, and your two elders said they wouldn't sell."
Su Xiaotian was not aware of this.
Grandpa Su and Grandma Su also exchanged glances.
Someone had indeed asked before if the building was for sale, and they had refused at the time.
After all, this building was the hard work of their grandchildren, and they would never sell it.
They never expected that something they hadn't taken seriously would lead to such big trouble.
"The other party has people who want your building. If you are not sensible, we can only use this method!"
"Aren't you afraid of being investigated by higher-ups for doing this? It's not easy to have this job, is it?" Su Xiaotian still didn't show much emotion.
"You don't need to worry about that. The other party is willing to pay fifty thousand yuan. If you are uncooperative, you might not even get this fifty thousand yuan."
The person who spoke to Su Xiaotian was always the one who looked like a minor leader standing at the front.
As for the others, they stood behind this person without a word.
Su Xiaotian scanned the faces of these people. She couldn't see any guilt for bullying ordinary citizens.
This was probably not the first time they had done such a thing.
She wondered how many people had been oppressed by these malignant tumors before.
"Fifty thousand yuan? How can you even say that? And in front of so many people?"
Su Xiaotian was almost amused to the point of anger.
She had already invested over a hundred thousand yuan in this building from its construction to its renovation, not to mention the recent addition of a lot of equipment. Yet, the other party was only offering her fifty thousand yuan.
This was clearly a move to force them to their deaths.
She really wondered what kind of person the person with "backing" in their words was!
Su Xiaotian had to marvel at how bold these people were!
In front of so many people, they spoke so openly and unscrupulously, saying things that should never be said in public.
This showed that they had no regard for the law or rules.
"Fifty thousand yuan is good enough. Young lady, I advise you to accept it gracefully. We've inquired about your family's background; you're just country bumpkins with no foundation, relying on some skills to establish yourselves in the capital!"
Su Xiaotian hadn't expected that the other party would even bother to inquire about their family's situation.
However, their understanding of the situation was clearly not thorough enough!
They hadn't even found out that their family had some protective umbrella.
Since they hadn't found out, they were destined to suffer a loss.
Su Xiaotian didn't think there was anything wrong with seeking help at this time.
After all, it would be foolish not to seek protection when being bullied at such a critical moment.
"Then you can proceed with the demolition!" Su Xiaotian said coldly. "If you're not afraid of the consequences, neither am I!"
Su Xiaotian's words were quite impolite, which stunned the people opposite.
This was not what they had expected. Shouldn't she have proactively asked for more money to compensate?
Why would she directly allow them to demolish it?
Such a good building, once demolished, would be gone!
The surrounding people were also dumbfounded. How could this young girl say such a thing so easily?
It was as if she were casually saying to have a flower plucked or a blade of grass pulled, not asking them to demolish this magnificent building.
Among the onlookers, some recognized these people and knew that they had connections and had done many wicked deeds in this area.
Since the development of this area began last year, these people had been active here.
Many families were forced to sell their old houses cheaply and consider themselves unlucky.
After speaking, Su Xiaotian directly said to Grandpa Su and Grandma Su, "Grandpa, Grandma, let's go inside and wait for them to bring official documents to forcibly demolish our house!"
Su Xiaotian was calm, but Grandpa Su and Grandma Su were not as calm as Su Xiaotian.
The two elders had lived for decades and had seen all sorts of things!
They had seen plenty of people like these bullies.
They were truly worried that these people would directly destroy their good building.
Let alone demolishing the building, even if it were slightly damaged, the two elders would be heartbroken to the point of losing sleep.
But Su Xiaotian insisted on pulling the two elders back into the house, and then called out to the others, thanking them and telling them to continue their work as usual.
As for those who chose to watch instead of protecting them at a crucial moment, Su Xiaotian didn't say much, but she had already decided that starting tomorrow, these people would no longer be hired.
As for those who were willing to stand behind Grandpa and Grandma and face the situation together, Su Xiaotian would not treat them unfairly. From now on, they would be formal employees here.
Although most of these people were laborers with low levels of education,
With such a large building, there would surely be suitable jobs for them.
Regardless of anything else, their attitude alone was enough to make people feel at ease and reassured!
The temporary workers Su's family had hired these days did not know that because of today's events, their futures would be vastly different.
When Fan Shufang got out of the car, she saw Su Xiaotian leading Grandpa Su and Grandma Su into the house.
Seeing that Su Xiaotian and the two elders were all right, Fan Shufang finally felt relieved.
This child Xiaotian was really something, not even informing her at such a critical moment.
It was fortunate that Tang Ping took the initiative to explain the situation, otherwise, they wouldn't have known that the old and the young were destined to suffer!
She glanced at the few people who were stunned by Su Xiaotian's actions, and a hint of disgust crossed her lips.
People like them were malignant tumors, the black sheep of the flock.
These people looked at Su Xiaotian returning with an air of fearlessness and still hadn't figured out why the young girl had such confidence.
"Director Zhu, what do you think? This young girl might not know anything, right?"
A tall, thin man behind the oily-haired minor leader, Director Zhu, asked.
Anyone who was sensible would not be so calm at this moment.
Director Zhu clearly didn't understand why this young girl spoke with such confidence.
"Perhaps. However, if she's uncooperative, don't blame us. We'll find people later and at least put on a show to scare her!"
The other party had promised them a large sum of money after the job was done.
Speaking of which, they had iron rice bowls, but the monthly income was so little that it was all spent on food, drink, and daily necessities. They couldn't even afford a good pack of cigarettes!
Several people nodded in agreement.
Fan Shufang, Director Cai, and Tang Ping got out of the car.
Fan Shufang walked up to those people and asked, "Which unit are you from?"
Director Zhu hadn't expected someone to suddenly appear at this moment, looking like a superior official inspecting the area.
"We are from that unit. You have no right to know!"
Fan Shufang didn't waste any more words with these people and turned to walk towards the main entrance.
Although Xiaotian and her elder brother and sister-in-law didn't seem to be harmed, they must have been frightened. She needed to go in and comfort them.
Director Cai glanced at these people who were still smug, thinking they were the best in the world, and felt pity for them!
These people would not only lose their jobs this time but might even end up in jail.
Alas!
As the old saying goes, self-inflicted misfortune is hard to escape. Aren't these people living examples?
They clearly had good jobs and lived comfortable lives, so why would they choose to collude with evil?
After Fan Shufang went inside, she saw Su Xiaotian talking to Grandpa Su and Grandma Su and quickly walked over.
"Big Brother, Sister-in-law, are you alright?"
Hearing Fan Shufang's voice, Grandpa Su and Grandma Su were startled.
Why had Fan Shufang come at this time?
They glanced at Su Xiaotian. Could it be that this child had called for reinforcements?
Seeing Tang Ping, Su Xiaotian understood. Tang Ping must have overheard her conversation with her grandmother and spread the word.
"Second Grandma, why are you here?"
"You child, if Tang Ping hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have known that something so big had happened at home!"
Fan Shufang glared at Su Xiaotian reproachfully.
"Second Grandma, I was in such a hurry that I forgot?"
"You say, if your grandfather and grandmother were harmed even a little, how heartbroken and sad would your second grandfather be? If you were harmed even a little, wouldn't your second grandfather go crazy?"
Fan Shufang dared not imagine what her protective old man would do if this old, old, and young trio suffered any harm. Su Dan Novel Network
Her old man had been strong his entire life and had never used his power to oppress others, but that was because no one had touched his bottom line.
"Second Grandma, you haven't told Second Grandpa already, have you?" Su Xiaotian felt her eyelids twitching.
Her Second Grandma's words clearly meant that she had already informed her Second Grandpa!
"Naturally, I told him. I can't resolve this matter myself. The house is about to be demolished, so how could your second grandfather not step in to resolve it?"
Just as Fan Shufang and Su Xiaotian were talking, they suddenly heard a commotion outside.
Su Xiaotian guessed that the people who were going to resolve the issue had arrived.
She had no intention of going out to see.
Since her Second Grandpa was stepping in, she would let him handle it.
If these tumor-like people remained in this circle, it would only cause more people to become disillusioned with society and alienate the people.
It would be good to deal with them this time.
"Xiaotian, aren't you going to take a look?" Tang Ping asked.
She also guessed that there must be chaos outside now.
"No need to look. No matter what punishment these people receive, they deserve it."
"When they were committing evil deeds, why didn't they think about how helpless the people they harmed must have felt?"
Su Xiaotian said these words very calmly!
In any case, she was just a victim. If needed during the handling of the matter, she would cooperate, but going out now might cause trouble.
Su Xiaotian remembered the saying "curiosity killed the cat" very clearly.
Tang Ping found Su Xiaotian's behavior rather unfathomable.
How could a young girl look so mature and old-fashioned?
Shouldn't this be the time when curiosity is at its peak?
Didn't she want to see the scene of the villains being taken away?
Or perhaps, Su Xiaotian had already seen such scenes before?
However, from today's situation, she could also see that Fan Shufang truly doted on Su Xiaotian, and their relationship with the Su family was genuinely good.
She just didn't understand why Director Fan kept calling them "Big Brother" and "Sister-in-law" when their families weren't even of the same surname.
Well, these were not things she should be considering.
"Shufang, why did you let her Second Grandpa know about such a small matter?"
Grandma Su said somewhat sheepishly.
Dong Yuanzhong was a man who did great things, so why should he be busy with their small family matters?
"Yes, Sister-in-law, quickly tell Yuan Zhong not to ruin his reputation for our small family matters."
Grandpa Su also quickly spoke up, firmly stating that they should not let Dong Yuanzhong worry about their family's affairs.
"Big Brother, please rest assured. This matter will be handled, and it won't ruin his reputation. On the contrary, many people might applaud!"
The existence of some evil forces in this area had already been noticed, but because it hadn't caused too much trouble, they hadn't had time to deal with them.
Or perhaps, the people below were hesitant and had never dealt with these people.
In any case, with Dong Yuanzhong taking action this time, the matter would surely be resolved quickly and efficiently. How many people would applaud!
