When I got out of the subway station, I looked up and saw a Grade A office building next to me.

The building is tall and has blue glass throughout, glowing in the sun. Senior white-collar workers in professional attire shuttled through it, and tall and handsome doormen smiled politely at them.

I called the man named Gao Jian, and after telling him who he was, his originally casual attitude suddenly changed:

"Wait a minute, I'll send someone down to pick you up right away!"

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the top-floor office building, looking at the traffic downstairs, I was a little dizzy.

Sitting at the desk behind me was the owner named Gao Jian.

His exterior is very incompatible with his name "Gao Jian", bald, looks only a little more than 1.6 meters, and has a beer belly, very greasy.

The beautiful female secretary put down the teacup, and Gao Jian motioned for her to leave.

After the office door was closed, he walked up to me and pointed to the houses that were being built not far away:

"This real estate was developed by our company, and the land price at that time was very cheap, and I have been holding on to it without development, and this year the house price has risen, and I started construction. The opening price will start at 20,000 next week, and I will sell some leftovers first......"

It can be seen that he is a little proud, and he is gearing up.

I was not very interested in what he said, I just asked him:

"Where the ghost is?"

I don't know if businessmen like to detour when they talk, and in the face of my straightforwardness, Gao Jian is obviously a little unaccustomed. Putting away the smile on his face, he sat down on the guest sofa next to him and made a "please" gesture to me.

I sat down and looked at the glass teacup on the coffee table, the tea leaves in it stood up, this tea should be the best "bamboo leaf green".

Gao Jian took out a Chinese stick and handed it to me, I shook my head and said no. He also reluctantly, he lit one and smoked it, and after a while, he squinted his eyes: "You, really know how to catch ghosts?" ”

I nodded and said sure.

"But......" he looked at me, "you don't look like that." ”

I stood up, a little displeased: "Since you don't believe me, what are you looking for me for?" ”

Seeing that I was leaving, he quickly stopped me, said sorry and explained to me that he had been deceived several times, and he was a little scared, looking at me like an office worker, different from the master in his impression, so he asked.

I asked, "Did the masters you invited, who looked like people touching dogs, solve the problem for you?" ”

"Of course not, if it is solved, I will not look for you......"

Gao Jian was a little embarrassed, and seeing that his attitude had changed, I didn't care about him and sat back on the sofa.

I looked at him with my hands: "Tell me first, what went wrong, and what's going on?" ”

Taking a deep breath, Gao Jian looked at the other side of the floor-to-ceiling window, he pointed somewhere and said to me, "Look there." ”

Looking in the direction of his finger, I saw that it was an old urban village, surrounded by high-rise buildings, and it was hidden in it, and it looked a little out of place from a distance.

This place, I'm not a stranger, I just walked from there last night.

At that time, a dark shadow flashed, and an uncle told me to pay attention to safety, and when I turned around, he was gone.

Gao Jian said: "In the past few years, our company won the bidding for that part, but it is not a planning land, it belongs to a residential community, and I have to personally negotiate with the property owner about the compensation payment." ”

I looked at that place, I didn't think it was anything special when I passed by it yesterday, but now from this position, it's really good, surrounded by large supermarkets and office buildings, and not far from Central Park.

Building a house in such a place is definitely much more expensive than the 20,000-square-meter lot just now.

I took a sip of tea, and the green buds stuck to the water, and the tea tasted really good.

After a sip, some tea leaves floated in my mouth, ripped off and thrown into the ashtray, and I asked, "I won it a few years ago, why hasn't the construction started now?" ”

Gao Jian also threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray: "Because, there are ghosts!" ”

I raised my eyes and looked at him calmly: "Tell me about it." ”

His eyes wandered, and at that moment, I could clearly see the panic in his expression, and after a pause, he took out another cigarette and lit it.

After taking a deep puff of his cigarette, he said, "That place, it's a bunch of people!" Insatiable, lazy, ignorant, backward, just thinking about getting rich overnight! ”

I remained silent and motioned for him to continue.

He said as he smoked, and I got a general idea of what was going on in that urban village.

It turned out that three years ago, Gao Jian's real estate development company, through some "means", successfully won that prime location and had the courage to open a large-scale commercial and residential real estate.

After learning of this disappearance, the residents of the urban village rushed to tell each other and were overjoyed.

After all, in the city, the word "demolition" has the same effect as "getting rich overnight".

Gao Jian's company convened a meeting of the villagers to discuss the compensation plan, after all, the property law has come out, the house belongs to others, and the price must be reasonable.

In fact, Gao Jian didn't want to do too much, the location of the urban village is good, as long as the price of the village is not outrageous, he will agree, after all, as long as this place is developed, it will be a golden treasure.

Businessmen always only look at profits, especially as a successful businessman like Gao Jian.

In his eyes, nothing that can be solved with money is a problem.

In the solution, there are many villagers who form gangs in order to take out two more money from Gao Jian's pocket, but those are small profits, and Gao Jian doesn't care.

But he never expected that among these mercenary citizens he thought, there was a person who couldn't be impressed.

This person is Wei Ping.

Wei Ping, who has stayed in places like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou for a long time, is considered a knowledgeable person among the villagers.

After leaving the first-tier cities, he returned to his hometown with his wife and children, and renovated and decorated the house left by his ancestors, which not only solved the needs of his own residence, but also rented out the spare rent and enjoyed the rent income.

He is in his forties, and he doesn't want to leave anywhere, so he wants to live in this house.

After seeing the announcement of the demolition, he was not as happy as the other villagers, so he went straight back to his house and said to his family: "Even if the king of heaven comes, he will not move!" ”

Seeing that all the villagers had signed the contract, only Wei Ping's family was left, and Gao Jian, as a developer, was a little unbearable.

So, he asked Wei Ping to be invited here in person.

Sitting in the top-floor office building, Wei Ping's eyes were always fixed on the area where his house was located.

"Do you have a condition?" Gao Jian asked him.

After taking a sip of tea, Wei Ping turned his eyes to look at Gao Jian and spit out a few words faintly: "In addition to money, I want a whole floor." ”
