Chapter 333: Who?
Translator: Lonelytree
Gong Tianhao returned to the Xiao family after answering the phone. There was quite a crowd at the Xiao Family, including the village chief and some people who were close to Xiao Zhengyang’s family.
As soon as Gong Tianhao entered the courtyard, the village chief said excitedly, “Young Master Gong, what’s the situation now?”
Gong Tianhao told the village chief earlier that another demolition team was coming to the village. They were a different group, but they were equally aggressive. The compensation fee was the same as before. When the village chief heard this, he instantly became angry.
However, Gong Tianhao said that as long as the entire village cooperated, the problem would be easily resolved. The cooperation he needed was for all the villagers to stay at home and stay away from the village entrance.
This time, the demolition team was accompanied by the town officials. They could easily instill fear into the villagers and force them to sign the agreement. That would add trouble to Gong Tianhao.
After all, Gong Tianhao hadn’t exposed his true identity. He didn’t want the villagers to drag him down due to their fear of the officials. So he had them stay at home instead. If they wanted to see the demolition team, they could only watch them from afar.
Honestly, if not for his wife and grandfather, Gong Tianhao wouldn’t have bothered. But since this was his wife’s hometown, he had to protect it.
The matter had been settled. The villagers didn’t know anything, and the demolition team had already retreated.
Gong Tianhao glanced at the village chief and said lightly, “They have returned. Don’t worry. There won’t be another demolition team coming in the future.”
The village chief and Xiao Zhengyang were shocked when they heard this. They asked, “Is this true?”
Gong Tianhao nodded and said, “It’s true!”
Everyone else present was also very happy. “That’s great!” They didn’t have to worry about losing their houses anymore.
Even though there was compensation if they agreed to the demolition, the money was not enough for the farmers who had to rely on the land to survive.
At the same time, Hong Qing received a notice from the county ordering him to go back immediately, and Liu Jian received the news that the global tourism development company had gone bankrupt.
This was like a bolt from the blue for Liu Jian.
A moment ago, he was still feeling smug, believing he was cleverer than Li Jianmin. However, the next second, he received the news that the head company had gone bankrupt. He knew that his future was ruined.
These men’s master had to be behind the head company’s bankruptcy. Liu Jian was so scared that he could not control himself.
Yue Qilin sneered and asked, “Director Liu, I told you to inform your big boss earlier, but you insisted on wasting time with us. This is the consequence.
“My master got impatient and dealt with your big boss.”
Yue Qilin shouted at the demolition team, “You can go back home! Your head company is gone. Your big boss is in big trouble! Why are you still wasting time here?”
The demolition team members looked at each other and then at their chief manager, Liu Jian. His face was pale, and his body swayed.
A moment later, the demolition team leader came over and asked, “Chief Liu, are we still demolishing the houses?”
Liu Jian immediately jumped up like a startled bird. He was so frightened that his hair stood on end. He looked at the team leader in shock and anger and said loudly, “What demolition? Our company has gone bankrupt. If we demolish these houses, who will pay for them? Will you pay?”
‘When Captain Han of the demolition team heard this, he was shocked. They heard from the side about some company bankruptcy. They didn’t think it was their company. If that was true, what would happen to their salaries? Were they going to work for nothing?
A wave of anger surged out of Captain Han’s heart.
Immediately, he thought of his nemesis, Hu Hansan. He heard from Hu Hansan that their big boss had offended a big shot at Taoyuan Village, and it was only a matter of time before the company went bankrupt.
Hu Hansan was prescient and sold the demolition tools at a low price. Then, his team took the money and left.
Captain Han’s team was going to end up the same way. Captain Han pursed his lips tightly and ignored the shocked and angry Liu Jian.
He waved his hand and said loudly, “Brothers, there’s no demolition today. Let’s leave!” Then, the demolition team left in a hurry.
Liu Jian and the other two were left dumbstruck.
Then, Hong Qing ignored Liu Jian, jumped into his car, and drove away.
Zheng Wanli and Liu Jian were left. Zheng Wanli looked around with a baffled expression. He did not know what to do.
However, he had a very bad premonition. They came in a large group, but they had all left in a panic.
Now, only Zheng Wanli, Liu Jian, and the three luxury cars remained.
Zheng Wanli was very sensible. He did not question Yue Qilin anymore.
Zheng Wanli walked toward Liu Jian and asked carefully, “Chief Liu, are you alright?”
However, Liu Jian glanced at him as if he was crazy. Liu Jian tumed around and ran to his car. He drove away.
Zheng Wanii, “…” Am I that scary?
Everyone had left. There was no point for him to stay. However, he turned around and realized there was no vehicle left. He came in Hong Qing’s car. They had abandoned him.
Zheng Wanli looked around and found that other than the three luxury cars in front of him, there wasn’t even an ox-cart.
Zheng Wanli hesitated for a few moments before walking toward Yue Qilin. Then, he still displayed a bit of official authority and said with a bit of arrogance, “Send me back to the town!”
The three men answered by turning their cars around!
A major event had happened in City Z. It was as if a magnitude 8 earthquake had struck the business and political circles. It was terrifying and shocking.
First of all, global tourism development company was considered a little famous in City Z. But the company declared bankruptcy in a short period of time, with a debt of 300 million.
It was rumored that the boss was captured when he was trying to escape from a hotel. He was involved not only in economic crimes but also in illegal coercion, murder, and more than a dozen other crimes. The crimes were so serious that they shocked City Z.
Liao Guohui’s reputation soured overnight.
Secondly, an investment company of the Yan family was investigated.
Everyone knew that the Yan Group, the leading company in City Z, had always been a company led by morality. So why were they suddenly a subject of an investigation?
This confused many.
Lastly, and also the most serious matter, everyone in the prefecture capital, who was involved in Global Tourism Development Company’s matters, was investigated.
This included Lin Lihui.
As the head of the Yan family, Yan Yiging was naturally shrewd.
After he connected the dots, he knew these occurrences had to do with Taoyuan Village’s development. His company was targeted because of his investment in Taoyuan Village.
Yan Yiging frowned and gave his son a call.
“Son, who is this big boss living in Taoyuan Village?” Yan Yiging asked curiously.
Yan Siming smiled and said, “Dad, now you know I didn’t lie to you. Fortunately, we have always been good businessmen who abide by the law. Otherwise, I’m afraid that our entire Yan family would be destroyed this time.”
Yan Yiging said in surprise, “Is it that serious?”
“Yes!” Yan Siming nodded and said, “Dad, don’t have any greedy thoughts about Taoyuan Village anymore. We can’t afford to take down this place!” With that said, Yan Siming directly hung up the phone.
Yan Yiging,
“Son, you haven’t even told me who is this big boss living in that small mountain village…
