NovelEnglishChapter 1406 Using Their Schemes Against Them Cyrus was momentarily stunned by Wynter's words. He had always heard from the Montclairs that they were doing things for his own good, that they wouldn't hurt him by trying to teach him everything.
As the Whitman family's eldest grandson, he needed to be well-rounded and competent in all areas.

Think carefully about what these people have said. Is this land really worth pursuing?" Hearing that, Cyrus was momentarily dazed. "Aren't they currently demolishing the urban villages?" Wynter thought of Tamia. She had mostly introduced Cyrus to people from the Wray family. This made Wynter suspect that Tamia might also be working with the Wray family behind the scenes.
She decided it was better to be straightforward. "Yes, urban villages are being demolished. There are returns, but the cash flow is slow. It could take years before you see any substantial return.
"Of course, these aren't the most troublesissues. You might not have dealt with people from urban villages before." Wynter then continued with a question, "Do you have the latest printed map of Hawford? I need to examine it closely." Although Cyrus was pretty much a mama's boy emotionally, he was reliable in other matters. When Wynter mentioned wanting to acquire land, he had prepared everything she might need.
However, it was true that he hadn't interacted with people from urban villages before. After all, he was sent abroad.
Wynter didn't shy away from pointing out his shortcomings. "You're too detached from ordinary people. You might think everything is better when you are overseas. Be it systems, education, or democracy.
"But now that you're back, you think that connections and relationships are key. At the dining table earlier you were indeed led to believe that connections are useful." Cyrus didn't know what Wynter was trying to say. "Then what should we do?" "Letexplain human relationships," Wynter continued in a calm tone. "If they genuinely wanted what's best for you, they wouldn't let you invest in a place like the urban villages.

Wynter pointed at the urban village's location on the map. "Speaking of the people in the urban village, you should know that I cfrom the countryside. So, I understand the local ways of doing things. I've even been to villages involved in trafficking.
"Of course, I won't compare a civilized settlement with a remote mountain village, but there are fundamental truths you can't avoid. More people mean more thoughts. You'll find it hard to defend yourself if they decide to use any means against you.
"Plus, they all listen to the village chief and are unusually united. This isn't entirely a bad thing, and there are positives as well. But who do you think can persuade an entire urban village to accept your demolition conditions?" Cyrus responded quickly, "We can find the urban village's chief."

"Quite clever." Wynter slightly raised an eyebrow. Her expression didn't seem particularly admiring" Check the village chief's background. If he were easy to deal with, the village would have been demolished long ago." Cyrus stiffened his neck. "We're in a society governed by law."
“That's true, but the buyer still needs to ask the seller if they're willing to they sell." Wynter tapped tapped her fingers on the table. Her analysis of human nature was sharp.
"As long as the urban village isn't demolished, the village chief essentially has the final say on the land. He gets to enjoy the best welfare benefits and will certainly receive his share of the benefits during the demolition process." X
