Chapter 703: The Missing Daughter
"Got it, I'll take notice." Jiang Chen said, a flash of confidence flashed in his eyes.
After eating, Jiang Chen went to the place where Old Man Wang was alone.
It was a dilapidated residential area with old and cramped houses that contrasted with the surrounding high-rise buildings.
Jiang Chen easily found Old Man Wang's home, which was a small and dilapidated courtyard with withered vines crawling on the walls.
As soon as he reached the door, he heard a commotion coming from inside.
"Old man Wang, you better move out, this place is really going to be demolished." A middle-aged man who looked like the person in charge of construction persuaded him bitterly.
"I'm not moving! I'm going to die here! Old Man Wang roared with full anger, his voice full of determination and determination.
"You're making it difficult for us to do this, there's a death order from above, and this place must be demolished." The person in charge of construction said helplessly.
"I don't care! If any of you dares to touch my house, I will fight with him! Old Man Wang said, and picked up a wooden stick from the corner of the wall, and put on a desperate posture.
Jiang Chen saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly in his heart.
He took a few steps forward and said loudly, "Stop!" If you have something to say, don't move your hands and feet. ”
The person in charge of the construction turned his head when he heard the sound and saw a young man walking over, and immediately frowned: "Who are you?" Don't be nosy! ”
"I'm from the Tang Group." Jiang Chen said lightly, "I'll be responsible for handling the matter here." ”
When the person in charge of the construction heard that it was someone from the Tang Group, he was immediately startled.
He looked at Jiang Chen carefully a few times, and suddenly recognized him: "You, you are President Jiang?" ”
"It's me." Jiang Chen nodded in acknowledgement.
The person in charge of the construction was so frightened that he almost didn't kneel.
Jiang Chen's name is thunderous within the Tang Group, who doesn't know that he is the real master of the Tang Group?
He hurriedly walked away with his subordinates, not even daring to say a word of nonsense.
When Old Man Wang saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
He glanced Jiang Chen up and down a few times and asked, "Are you really from the Tang Group?" ”
"It's like a fake." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
When Old Man Wang heard this, he didn't show a happy look, but looked at him a little vigilantly: "Then you are also here to demolish my house?" ”
"It's not." Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "I'm here to solve the problem." There must be reasons and ideas for your reluctance to move away, and I'd love to hear from you. ”
Old Man Wang was silent for a while when he heard this, and then slowly spoke: "I have lived here for most of my life, and I have a deep affection for this land. You said that if you want to dismantle it, have you considered our feelings? ”
Jiang Chen listened to Old Man Wang's words, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.
He knew that the development of the city needed to be constantly renewed and transformed, but also the feelings and needs of those who had lived on the land for most of their lives.
"Old man Wang, you are right." Jiang Chen said seriously, "But we also have to take into account the development and renewal of the city. The environment and facilities here are no longer suitable for modern life, and we need to renovate and improve this place. ”
"Then you can tear down our house at will?" Old Man Wang said with some excitement.
"Of course not." Jiang Chen quickly explained, "We will give you a reasonable compensation and resettlement plan to ensure that your life will not be affected." ”
Old Man Wang was silent for a while when he heard this, and then slowly spoke: "What you said is true?" ”
"Absolutely." Jiang Chen said seriously, "We can sign a formal agreement to ensure that your rights and interests will not be harmed." ”
Old Man Wang was silent for a while, and still said, "No, I can't accept it, this place is ...... I don't care how much I give. ”
Jiang Chen's heart moved, and he felt that Old Man Wang seemed to have some unspeakable hardships.
He decided to try to open the old man's heart in a different way: "Old man Wang, I understand your feelings for this land. But I'm wondering, are there any other reasons why you don't want to move out other than that? ”
Old Man Wang was silent for a moment, and a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes.
He sighed and spoke slowly: "Actually, I'm waiting for my daughter here. She got lost when she was a child, and I never found her. I'm afraid that if I move away, she won't be able to find her way home. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Chen finally understood the real reason why Old Man Wang resolutely refused to move.
An inexplicable feeling surged in his heart, this old man's thoughts and waiting for his daughter were so persistent and firm.
"I can understand your thoughts." Jiang Chen said softly, "However, you have been waiting here, and it is not a way." What if your daughter has come back but can't find it? ”
When Old Man Wang heard this, a trace of sadness and firmness flashed in his eyes: "Then I can't move." I'm going to wait for her here, what if she comes back and can't find a home? It was the only place she could possibly know. ”
Jiang Chen listened to Old Man Wang's words, and couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart.
He knew that the old man's thoughts and waitings for his daughter had surpassed everything.
However, he couldn't let Old Man Wang wait like this forever.
"Old man Wang, I understand your feelings." Jiang Chen said seriously, "However, it's not a way for you to wait like this." I think we can figure out a way together to find your daughter. ”
When Old Man Wang heard this, a trace of surprise and hope flashed in his eyes: "Are you serious? Can you help me find my daughter? ”
"I'll do my best to help." Jiang Chen nodded and said, "However, I need you to provide some information about your daughter, such as her photo, name, age, etc. ”
When Old Man Wang heard this, he quickly stood up and walked back to the room.
After a while, he walked out with a photo and handed it to Jiang Chen: "This is a photo of my daughter when she was a child, and this is the only photo of her." I don't know what she looks like now, but I've kept this picture in the hope that one day I'll find her. ”
Jiang Chen took the photo and looked at the delicate and cute little girl above, and couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart.
He imagined that the little girl might be an adult now, but he didn't know where his family was waiting for her.
"Old man Wang, I will bring this photo back and ask people to help find it."
Jiang Chen said seriously, "However, I need you to tell me your daughter's name and age, so that we can search for it in a more targeted manner." ”
When Old Man Wang heard this, a trace of gratitude and expectation flashed in his eyes: "My daughter's name is Wang Xinxin, and she should be thirty-two years old this year. ”
