‘When Yue Qilin saw Zheng Wanli’s puzzled look, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a trace of a mocking smile as he said in a cold voice, “I don’t care who you are or what your identity is. Get lost immediately!”
Not to mention Zheng Wanli, even Hong Qing and Liu Jian’s hearts burned with anger when they heard this.
However, Liu Jian didn’t show his anger. Instead, he smiled coldly and said to Hong Qing, “Deputy Leader Hong, I didn’t know there are so many hidden talents here. Even a small villager can learn not to respect the county leaders. They don’t even give you face.”
Hong Qing was also very embarrassed.
He really didn’t expect that to hit a roadblock in this poor village. His anger immediately soared to the sky.
However, he first comforted Liu Jian and said, “Chief Liu, please calm down and watch from the side. I’ll deal with these people.”
Then, he walked to Yue Qilin’s car and shouted at them with a gloomy face, “Who are you? How dare you obstruct the economic development of Xingyin County? If you know what’s good for you, drive the cars away as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’ll sue you for obstructing official business and arrest all of
you.”
Yue Qilin said with a smile, “Deputy Leader Hong, please do call your people. My brothers will wait here. But…” Having said this, his smile disappeared. His expression was solemn as he said with a stern expression, “If you insist on not following the proper procedure and want to enter the village to
demolish the houses, you have to get through the three of us first.”
The three men honked their horns at the same time.
Yue Qilin’s eyes shot sharply at Liu Jian as he said with a sneer, “I say, President Liu, you’d better call your big boss Liao Guohui. If he goes too far, there will be consequences.”
Zheng Wanli didn’t feel anything, but Hong Qing and Liu Jian were shocked.
‘This man knows us? No, not only does he know us, but he also knows our big boss, Liao Guohui. How is that possible?”
However, before Liu Jian could think about it, Yue Qilin gave him another stunning blow.
Yue Qilin said, “Also, President Liu, please tell Chairman Liao that not everything is fine and dandy after he found the head of the Yan Family to be his backer.
“On top of that, my master said that he would overlook Liao Yiging’s mistake out of deference to Old Master Yan and Yan Siming.
“However, if he still refuses to come to his sense, my master will not give face to anyone anymore.”
This made Liu Jian’s expression changed drastically. He subconsciously took a few steps back and looked at Yue Qilin in disbelief.
‘What does he mean? Does his master know about the cooperation between Chairman Liao and Master Yan? That has to be it! Or else why would they set up the blockade here”
Hong Qing frowned when he heard Yue Qilin’s words.
He was very confused. ‘Who are these people, and how did they know so much? When did such a big shot appear in Taoyuan Village? How come I haven’t heard anything”
Of course, Hong Qing also suspected that this person was just bluffing. They wanted better compensation because they were dissatisfied with the demolition plan.
But what if these people were telling the truth?
Hong Qing was conflicted.
However, Zheng Wanli didn’t hear the warning in Yue Qilin’s words. He really thought the man was just bluffing.
He said sternly with a dark face, “You backward villager, how dare you threaten us? Do you know who we are? Do you know who you’re talking to?”
Yue Qilin looked at him like he was a clown.
He said coldly, “Of course, I know who you are. One of you is Deputy County Leader, Hong Qing, and the other is the general manager of the Taoyuan Village Development Project Department from City Z’s global tourism development company, Liu Jian. And you are the town council leader, Zheng Wanli,
who has been in office for less than three hours.”
Zheng Wanli was dumbfounded when he heard that. He asked in disbelief, “How did you know all that?” This time, his heart was beating a little faster.
His official position was not high, but he could be considered a tactful person. He was not stupid.
When he heard this man list out their identities so casually, he was frightened. These men came from powerful backgrounds. They had the power to investigate everything clearly.
Yue Qilin ignored Zheng Wanli. Instead, he looked at Liu Jian, whose face was already pale, and said indifferently, “Chief Liu, we heard that the previous person-in-charge, Li Jianmin, was in a car accident. He is still unconscious. I wonder… Is he getting better?”
Although his tone was indifferent, the meaning in his words was so sharp and terrifying.
Liu Jian was so scared that his face turned pale on the spot, and he couldn’t help but stagger back a few steps.
He was in high spirits when he came, but now, he was wilting.
He opened his mouth and wanted to ask something, but it was as if something was stuck in his throat, and he couldn’t make any sound.
Yue Qilin didn’t care. With an aggressive tone, he said coldly, “President Liu, I advise you to relay my words to your Chairman Liao as soon as possible. Otherwise…” Yue Qilin raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch. He was the Grim Reaper sentencing someone to death, “Otherwise, if it were
any later, with my master’s hot temper, your boss’ company might go bankrupt.”
‘When Yue Qilin said this, Liu Jian immediately reacted.
He took out his phone from his pocket and made a call.
‘When the call was connected, he shouted in panic, “Boss, there’s someone here that warns us from touching Taoyuan Village, or he’d bankrupt our company.”
However, the other party replied weakly, “It’s too late.”
‘Then, Liu Jian could only hear the dial tone.
Liu Jian stared at the phone in a daze.
‘It’s too late!”
‘What did he mean by that? Did that mean they shouldn’t touch Taoyuan Village for now? Or the company had already gone bankrupt?
Yue Qilin’s ears were very sharp. Even though Liu Jian didn’t put the call on speaker, Yue Qilin heard everything clearly.
He chuckled and said, “I said that my master has a short temper. You delayed, and he made his move.”
‘When Hong Qing heard that, he was dumbfounded and asked, “You… What do you mean by that?”
Yue Qilin spread his hands and said, “Actually, it’s nothing much. It means that Liu Jian’s head office, Global Tourism Development Company, has just declared bankruptcy.”
“What?” Hong Qing’s eyes widened in disbelief when he heard that. He said in shock, “How is this possible?”
Global Tourism Development Company was a very big company in City Z. How could it go bankrupt so easily?
More importantly, this company had connections with the county council. They would receive news if the company went bankrupt.
Yue Qilin sneered and said, “Nothing is impossible for my master. If you don’t believe me, then call and ask.”
But before Hong Qing could make a call, his phone rang.
‘When Hong Qing heard the ringtone, his heart panicked. He had an uneasy premonition.
He didn’t dare to pick up the call.
Yue Qilin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “Deputy Leader Hong, why aren’t you answering the call? Maybe this call of yours will give you a surprise!”
Hong Qing’s hands couldn’t help but tremble as he took out the phone. The Caller Id showed that it was his assistant. His heart slightly relaxed. “Hello…”
“Deputy leader Hong, something bad has happened. We’ve received the notice that Global Tourism Development Company has just declared bankruptcy. Taoyuan Village Development Project has to be stopped immediately.
“Also, leader Lin asked me to inform you to return to the county as soon as possible. There is an emergency meeting to be held,” Hong Qing’s assistant shouted.
Dang!
Hong Qing’s phone fell to the ground.
