392: Chapter 392 Pacification 392: Chapter 392 Pacification Su Mo was also slightly surprised, “Uncle, what illness did you contract?”

“Nothing much, just a minor issue with the nerves and blood vessels in the brain.”

Lin Wei was not very willing to talk too much about this matter.

Hearing this, Lin Zinuo quickly asked her mother, “Mother, how is the treatment going?”

“Not well, we’ve been several times and hit walls every time.

Alas, Dr.

Xiao hardly sees patients now.”

Lin He’s expression also turned somewhat dim and despondent upon saying this.

“Can’t we think of some other way?”

Lin Zinuo was getting anxious, too.

“We’ve thought about it and asked many people for help.

But it’s no use.

Don’t worry, we can handle these things ourselves.”

Lin He said kindly to Zinuo.

After contemplating for a moment, Su Mo said, “Uncle, Aunt, if you don’t mind, let me give it a try?”

“You have a way?”

Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, Lin He’s eyes sparked with hope.

In fact, they had almost given up.

Lin Wei frowned slightly and replied, “There’s no need for that trouble.

It’s just a stubborn issue.”

“Dad, don’t be so stubborn.

Let Su Mo give it a try,” Lin Zinuo said urgently.

This was no joking matter.

“At this time, you shouldn’t worry about pride.

Your health is the most important thing.

Let Su Mo try.

After all, he’s a local; maybe he really has a way.”

Lin He also hurriedly persuaded him.

“Alright, thank you.”

Lin Wei fell silent for a moment, which counted as a sign of accord.

“This is what I should do.”

Su Mo humbly replied.

He didn’t have many friends to begin with; Lin Zinuo counted as one, so her concerns were his concerns.

Buzz, buzz.

At that moment, Lin Wei’s phone started ringing, and he picked up the call.

“Yes, I am.”

“Alright, I understand.

I’ll be right there…”

…

Lin Wei then rose to his feet and said, “You all continue eating.

There’s been an issue with the site survey, so I need to rush over and take a look.”

“There’s a problem at the site?”

Su Mo was startled.

His phone also began to ring at that moment.

Su Mo looked at his phone and answered the call.

“Hello, Uncle Zhao.”

“I understand.

Keep it under control; I’ll be right over.”

Su Mo had a brief conversation and then hung up the phone.

“Uncle, I need to go to the site as well.

How about we go together?”

Su Mo also stood up at this point.

Lin Zinuo and Lin He were both a bit at a loss, asking with confusion.

“What’s happened?”

“Let’s talk about it when we get there.”

Lin Wei had no mood to explain.

They were supposed to have a good meal, and such an issue occurred at this crucial moment.

Moments later, Su Mo and the others returned to the old city district.

The streets of the entire old district were crowded with a throng of tenants, confronting a group of survey and security personnel.

Scattered on the ground was a pile of equipment.

“Make way, everyone!”

Su Mo and the others made their way through the crowd.

“What happened, Master Cheng?”

Lin Wei asked the lead surveyor, an old master.

The old master, with a face full of grievance, replied, “Old Lin, we came down here today to conduct the demolition survey according to the instructions from above, but these people have been unreasonably resistant and even smashed our equipment.”

Su Mo turned to Uncle Zhao and the others and inquired, “Uncle Zhao, what happened?”

“These people barged in without permission.

We told them not to survey, but they wouldn’t listen.

In desperation, Old Chen and a few others lost their temper and started shoving them, and accidentally knocked over their equipment,” Uncle Zhao simply explained.

“I’ve already told them that a demolition agreement has been reached here,” Master Cheng said angrily.

“Bullshit, the landlord didn’t notify us at all, you claim an agreement has been reached just like that,” the numerous tenants on the scene cursed, enraged.

After listening to the explanations, Su Mo more or less understood the situation, and his brows were deeply furrowed.

Just then, Su Mo’s phone rang again, but this time, it was Cao Wen calling.

He hadn’t expected Cao Wen to call personally.

So he answered the phone.

“Lord Cao Wen.”

“Mr.

Su Mo, sorry to disturb you, but it seems there’s been a conflict between our survey team and your people.”

“Yes, I’m aware of it.

But, Lord Cao Wen, your people are a bit too hasty.

We only just signed the contract yesterday, and I haven’t notified the people here yet, and you’ve already started?” Su Mo said with a slight frown.

“I understand that we’re in the wrong on this, but we really are pressed for time, there’s no helping it.

This was an oversight on our part, but could you please help out?”

“Okay, I’ll handle this matter.”

“Thank you for your trouble.”

“It’s nothing.”

Su Mo then hung up the phone.

Lin Zinuo looked worried and asked, “Su Mo, is everything okay?”

Demolition issues have always been tricky since ancient times; mishandling them can make one unwelcome on all sides.

She was very concerned that Su Mo might not be able to handle it well, as there were just too many people involved.

“You don’t need to worry, I know what I’m doing,” Su Mo said to Lin Zinuo in a low voice, figuring that since things had come this far, he might as well use this opportunity to settle the matter.

Thinking of this, Su Mo spoke to Uncle Zhao.

“Uncle Zhao, could you please notify the tenants who aren’t here to gather on Central Street right now?

It’s essential that a representative from each household attends.

Also, prepare a set of loudspeakers; I have something to say to everyone.”

By the end, Su Mo felt a bit heavy-hearted, but in this world, there’s no such thing as a feast that doesn’t end; it’s time to face reality.

“Alright, I’ll go take care of it now,” Uncle Zhao replied.

…..

Lin Wei quietly watched Su Mo; he was curious to see how Su Mo would resolve this incident.

By observing how someone handles a situation, he could judge whether a person was truly capable, assess his character, and determine whether his heart was dark or pure.

Before long, the number of tenants gathered on the streets of the old city district grew.

Every household sent a representative, some bringing their entire family.

Everyone’s face showed a deeply anxious expression; it would be a lie to say they were not scared.

The general rumor that an interstellar airport was planned for this area seemed set in stone, meaning demolition was inevitable.

They would all have to leave this place, but once outside Demon City, how would they survive?

They might even have to move to a city below to make a living.

At this moment, Su Mo cleared his throat, which he temporarily made hoarse, and began to speak solemnly, “Hello everyone, I’m Su Mo.

I’m thankful that all of you could take time out of your busy schedules to come here today.

Everyone present is a neighbor and part of the community; many of you have even watched me grow up.

For that, I am very grateful for all your care over the years.”

As Su Mo said this, he bowed deeply to the crowd.

Seeing Su Mo bow, many in the audience, including aunts and uncles, had tears in their eyes.

To tell the truth, they had watched Su Mo grow up, but Su Mo had also always taken care of them in return.

“There’s a saying that goes, ‘all good things must come to an end,’ and as much as I hate to part with all of you, the plan from above has been finalized, and the old city district has to be demolished in the end.

I feel deep remorse that I can’t keep everyone’s familiar homes.”

“Su Mo, you don’t need to say that, you’ve done well enough,”

“If it has to be demolished, so be it, don’t make it hard on yourself,”

“That’s right, we can’t make things difficult for you just for our sake,”

…

The crowd started shouting out one after another.
