Chapter 315: Angry Li Jianmin
Translator: Lonelytree
‘When the villagers heard this, they were instantly shocked.
“What? Will they demolish our houses and claim our lands? How is that allowed?”
The villagers relied on the farmland to survive. Like what the village chief said, without the farmland, how could they survive?
“No. We can’t let them do that!”
Finally, everyone understood the severity of the situation. No one was willing to agree to the demolition anymore, even if there was compensation.
The village chief let out a deep breath and said, “That’s why I rushed back.” He looked around, and then, as if he had thought of something, he asked, “Oh, right, what exactly happened just now?”
Xiao Chengbang said, “Village chief, the demolition team came here with a forklift, but they were stopped at the intersection by Xiao Yue and the others.”
The village chief was puzzled. “Huh? What happened? I saw those people driving away on the way back.”
Xiao Mingyang smiled, “Village Chief, you may not know this, but those people were scared away by these three cars.”
“Scared away by the cars?” The village chief was even more puzzled. “They drove a big forklift here to scare us. Why would they be scared away instead?” For him, the bigger the vehicle, the scarier the car. So why would a person who drove the big forklift be scared away by the smaller cars?
Someone covered his mouth and said with a smile, “Haha, Village Chief, when the demo team’s leader came and saw the three cars, he came down to have a look.
“When he found out that the cars are worth millions, or even tens of millions, he was so scared that his knees went soft and he couldn’t get up.”
Someone immediately continued, “Then his subordinates came to help him up. They wanted to take revenge for him. The leader immediately stopped them. He said they couldn’t afford to offend the people inside these cars.
“Then Xiao Yue and the others got down. Xiao Yue praised the leader for having a good eye. These cars were given to Xiao Yue and his friends by Mr. Gong.”
Yue Qilin’s identity as a bodyguard wasn’t deliberately hidden. To the villagers, it was normal for the Gong Family to hire bodyguards. Moreover, the bodyguards were all handsome and muscular. They were all very pleasing to the eye.
If one of them fancied a villager’s daughter, the villager would buy firecrackers to celebrate.
When the village chief heard this, he was surprised. He pointed at the three cars, and his hands trembled. He stuttered and asked, “What… What did you say? This is a car worth millions, tens of millions?”
This was the first time he had heard of such an expensive car.
Xiao Chengbang immediately smiled and said, “Village chief, Xiao Yue said that this car is actually not that expensive. There are two cars worth more than 600,000 RMB and one car worth more than a million.”
When the village chief heard that, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. But then he reacted, “What, a car worth more than 600,000? A car worth more than a million?” That was still very expensive. He would never be able to earn this amount of money in his lifetime.
Xiao Chengbang nodded and said, “That’s right. That’s what Xiao Yue said.”
The village chief patted his heart and said, “That’s still very expensive.”
Speaking up to this point, he paused for a moment and sternly instructed everyone, “In the future, all of you should warn your children not to climb onto these cars. If it’s damaged, we won’t be able to pay for it.”
“Of course. We’ll give the children a stern warning!”
“That’s right. Even if I work my whole life, I won’t be able to earn so much. I can’t even afford a spare part of this car, much less the whole car.”
Li Wendong secretly thought, ‘Naturally. These two cars cost more than six million, and the middle car is 36 million. Their spare part is at least ten of thousands.”
Yue Qilin clenched his fist, put it to his lips, coughed twice, and then said, “Villagers, it’s okay. These cars are not made from glass. They won’t break so easily. Since the children like to play, then they can continue to climb over them.”
‘When the villagers heard this, they agreed somewhat embarrassedly.
“alright!”
However, they had already decided to warn their children to stay away from the cars.
Yue Qilin shook his head slightly and did not continue to dwell on this issue. He said, “Those people won’t be returning so soon. Everyone should return to their work.”
Then, Yue Qilin said to the village chief, “Village Chief, Mr. Gong is looking for you.”
When the village chief heard that, he immediately nodded and said, “Yes, okay. I’ll go look for him now. Young Master Gong has helped us so much. I should thank him.” Then, he said to the villagers, “Everyone should disperse. Since Mr. Yue said it’s fine, then it should be fine.”
At this time, some villagers said, “Village chief, can you tell us what’s going on with Taoyuan Village being developed into a tourist destination?”
The village chief frowned slightly and said, “I’ll go to Young Master Gong’s place first. After I return, I’ll have a meeting with everyone.”
“alright!”
However, no one was in the mood to return to work. After the villagers knew their village was about to be demolished, they felt uneasy. They wanted to know what was happening so that they could deal with it in the future.
On the other side, Captain Hu and the others had just walked out of Taoyuan Village when Li Jianmin’s call came.
“Hu Hansan, what’s the situation now?” Li Jianmin asked loudly.
Hu Hansan said, “CEO Li, we might not be able to do anything today.”
Li Jianmin frowned and asked, “What’s going on?”
Hu Hansan said truthfully, “CEO Li, do you know how much are the cars blocking the village road cost? The two cars cost at least six million, and the one car is about 36 million.”
“What?” Li Jianmin was also very surprised. “How is this possible? How can such a high-end car appear in the small mountain village?” When he heard from Hu Hansan that the cars were expensive, he thought they were only around ten million. He didn’t expect them to go up to 36 million.
Hu Hansan wasn’t done yet. He continued, “And these three cars are leftovers given by the master to his bodyguards.”
“What?” Li Jianmin had just come out of the hotel and was about to go down the stairs when he heard this. He was extremely shocked and stopped in his tracks. He almost fell down. “These are only for the bodyguards?” Li Jianmin could not believe it.
Which boss was so rich that he bought a car worth tens of millions for his bodyguards to drive?
Hu Hansan nodded and said, “Yes, that’s what they say. CEO Li, these people are professional bodyguards… When I face them, my whole body goes soft. I’m so nervous and scared.”
Li Jianmin asked, “Where are you now?”
“We just came out of Taoyuan Village and have arrived in the town.” Hu Hansan looked around.
“You bunch of useless things!” Li Jianmin cursed angrily, “You’re scared off that easily?!”
Li Jianmin’s scolding made Hu Hansan very dissatisfied. He said, “CEO Li, you can’t blame us. If those were just three ordinary cars, my brothers and I would run them over.
“But those are cars worth tens of millions. We can’t afford to offend them. Their master has to be someone extraordinary.”
LiJianmin said sharply, “I asked you to find the master’s identity. Did you find that out?”
“No!” Hu Hansan answered directly. The three bodyguards were enough to make their legs go weak. How would they have the courage to demand their master’s identity?
Actually, they didn’t even need to ask. They knew that the mysterious master was more powerful than their boss, Liao Guohui. Liao Guohui couldn’t afford to drive a car more than thirty million, so how could he compare?
When Li Jianmin heard this, he really wanted to give Hu Hansan two big slaps. He cursed loudly, “Cowards!” He continued, “Hu Hansan, you’re a sissy. I only asked you to investigate the identity of the person behind this. I didn’t ask you to do anything impossible. Why are you such a pussy?”
This angered Hu Hansan, He retorted, “That’s right, I’m a coward. If you’re that brave, you can go find it out yourself!”
“You!” Li Jianmin was also very angry.
“You what you? I’m only telling the truth!” Hu Hansan said loudly..
