"Indeed, Chairman Hua, acquiring land at market price is far too low. There’s only so much land in the city. It’s unrealistic to think one could buy it at market price, don’t you think?"

"At the very least, it should be twice or even three times that amount, right?"

"If it’s really at market price, it’s not impossible, but to take all the land we have at once, isn’t that too harsh?"

"Exactly, Chairman Hua, we’ve known each other for quite a few years and have always got along well. Why would you turn against us like this?"

"Chairman Hua, could you put in a good word for us with that chairman? We won’t let you do it for nothing."

Everyone began speaking up one after another.

As the saying goes, a wise man doesn’t suffer immediate losses. If it came to it, they could just sell off a portion first.

Hua Jun shook his head and said, "I’m sorry, but there’s no room for negotiation on this matter."

The atmosphere fell silent once again.

Everyone clenched their teeth in anger.

That guy was too merciless. Was he determined to take everything from them?

Without the land, how would they be any different from others in the city?

"Chairman Hua, does that person behind you really intend to go through with this so ruthlessly?" At this moment, Yan Hao, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

"Chairman Hua, this Anshan City was founded by my elder brother and his associates. The land we own is rightfully ours. Now that my brothers are gone, some stranger emerges to rob us of our property. Can you say this is just?"

The previously silent crowd immediately found their voices, echoing his sentiment.

Hua Jun sighed lightly and looked at Yan Hao, saying, "Brother Yan, I didn’t want to bring this up, but you’re forcing my hand. Yes, your families do have the right to own large plots of land in Anshan City.

However, there were many families who were allocated land back then. Why is it now that other families’ lands have all ended up in your hands? You currently own half the land in Anshan City. Do I need to elaborate on what happened?"

"You!" Yan Hao’s face showed a hint of guilt.

Not only him, but most of the people behind him lowered their heads.

Hua Jun was right. When Anshan City was first established, their families were not very well-known.

The ones who seized large portions of land were others.

But later, the key figures of those families either died or were incapacitated. Naturally, their land was transferred to other families through various means.

A few years passed, and they transformed into the most powerful families in Anshan City.

Heaven’s cycle never misses; now, the retribution for their past deeds had come.

However, their opponent was far more tactful than they had been.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have said what I should and shouldn’t. If you still refuse to cooperate, don’t blame me for disregarding our past relationships."

Hua Jun scanned the room as he spoke.

Although the chairman had said he could call him any time if there were difficulties,

the people present were not that powerful. If he couldn’t handle it, wouldn’t that be too incompetent of him?

Sure enough, when he said this, everyone’s faces showed signs of fear.

As the saying goes, the situation dictates the approach.

No matter how resentful they felt, what could they do?

If they refused to cooperate, they might end up losing both their properties and their lives, which would be a total loss.

"Sigh."

Yan Hao suddenly sighed, looking as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

"Chairman Hua, if we give up the land, would that person really stop troubling us and even protect us afterwards?"

Hua Jun’s eyes showed a hint of surprise. He hadn’t expected the usually proud Yan Hao to succumb to reality so quickly.

But with him taking the lead, the others would be much easier to deal with.

He nodded and said, "Rest assured, the chairman is not a petty person. As I’ve mentioned before, he’s reclaiming the land from you not for personal use, but to allow people outside the city to move in."

"What? Let people from outside the city move in?"

"Give our land to them to live on?"

"On what basis?"

For the first time, the group seemed to realize the intended use of the land, each of them staring in astonishment.

To them, those outside the city were inferior, by definition beneath them by several levels.

How could these inferior people be allowed to live in the same city as them?

"Enough, this is the chairman’s decision, and you don’t need to know why."

Hua Jun waved his hand. He didn’t fully understand either.

But his job was to execute the chairman’s orders, not question them.

"In any case, once you sell the land to the chairman, you won’t need to worry. He doesn’t have the time or need to harm you. If there are no other objections, let’s sign the transfer contracts now?"

Two Awakeners behind him immediately produced the prepared documents.

The people inside the room looked at each other.

They finally understood that they had no choice in the matter; unless they signed the contract, they wouldn’t be able to leave.

Hua Jun was truly ruthless!

"Brother Yan, why don’t you start?" Hua Jun said with a smile.

All eyes turned to Yan Hao, some glaring, others swallowing nervously.

"Alright."

Yan Hao responded with a faint smile. He stepped forward, glanced at the pre-drafted contract, signed his name, and pressed his thumbprint.

"Chairman Hua, is this fine?"

"Yes, thank you, Brother Yan. The money will be transferred to your account within three days. Please be patient."

Hua Jun replied with a smile.

"Well then, thank you, Chairman Hua. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now."

"Please, Brother Yan."
