“No… this South City District is a huge area and there are so many people. How do we rebuild it?” w.a.n.g Yunmei asked.

Wu Shaoqi smiled and explained, “It's impossible to demolish South City all at once. Director Yang said that they would demolish it bit by bit and rebuild it bit by bit. The sooner they start, the sooner they will be demolished. Our area is the closest to Zhonglou District, so we would be one of the first to be demolished.”

“Then I won't be able to open this breakfast stall anymore?” w.a.n.g Yunmei muttered.

“Even my tofu stall that has been open for decades has to be moved, let alone your breakfast stall. That's why I'm telling you now so that you can plan. Xiao Ai is studying at a good school like Erzhong. She would need to spend quite a bit of money!”

As Wu Shaoqi spoke, he stood up. His gaze landed on w.a.n.g Yunmei as he said, “Yunmei, think about it first. If you have any difficulties, feel free to ask me. I will help you if I can.”

w.a.n.g Yunmei immediately said gratefully, “Old Wu, you've been helping our family in secret all these years. I feel really bad about it.”

“Let's not talk about this. I've raised my son all by myself, so I know how difficult it is. It's naturally even more difficult for a woman like you to raise two children. If I can help, I'll help.” As he said that, Wu Shaoqi waved his hand. “Alright, I'll go back first. Liangzi will be leaving at nine. The stall can't have no one there.”

After sending Wu Shaoqi off, w.a.n.g Yunmei sat down and sighed. She muttered, “Why did they suddenly want to demolish the place? There was no news at all.”

Jian Ai and Jian Yu looked at each other and then at w.a.n.g Yunmei. Jian Ai then said, “Mom, it's a good thing for our family that they are demolis.h.i.+ng South City at this time. The timing is just right.”

w.a.n.g Yunmei froze, not knowing what her daughter meant.

Jian Ai explained, “You're the manager of Yaochi Club now. Although you don't have to drink as much as you used to, you still have to get off work very late, even later than before. You have to wake up early for this breakfast stall. Even if you don't want to be the manager of this club, I don't plan on letting you continue to open this. Now that there are demolition works, the breakfast stall definitely can't be opened. I don't have to say much anymore. This is the first reason.”

“Secondly, the good thing about the demolition is that we can receive a demolition fee and a relocation house as well. Our house is not small. The front and back yards are a few hundred square meters. We can get a lot of money. When the new neighborhood is built, we can still receive a relocation house.”

“Xiao Ai, how did you know about all these?” Jian Yu was surprised to see his sister talking so much.

Normally, a child of Jian Ai's age would not know anything about demolition. However, she was very clear about it. There were some things that even he, her brother, did not know.

Jian Ai knew very well that she was a real estate tyc.o.o.n in the capital in her previous life. She knew about this area very well. Demolition was a good thing for the commoners, and it was also a good thing for city construction unless they met unscrupulous developers. It was precise because of these unscrupulous developers that there were so many demolition disputes.

“Isn't that something everyone knows?” Jian Ai blinked at Jian Yu.

Jian Yu didn't argue with Jian Ai about this. Instead, he looked at w.a.n.g Yunmei and said, “Mom, if that's the case, demolition is indeed a good thing for our family.”
