"Ouch, my face, my teeth, my teeth."
Feng Zhigao clutched his bloodied mouth, feeling sothing strange inside. When he opened his mouth and spat, two molars were knocked out.
"You, you fucking hit , you’re rebelling, you’re causing a rebellion!"
Feng Zhigao shouted furiously.
A few lackeys imdiately rushed towards Zhang Xiaoshan.
"You brat, daring to hit our Director Feng, you’re done for."
"Who dares?"
"Take them down!"
By that ti, Wu Biao and Li Erniu had arrived with their n.
More than fifty sturdy n, wielding weapons, circled Feng Zhigao and his group.
These strong n were now hired security guards employed by Zhang Xiaoshan—they truly dared to fight.
Seeing this setup, Feng Zhigao’s group imdiately chickened out.
They were no match for the others; they were just filler for the gaps in their teeth. If a fight really broke out, they would certainly be the ones to suffer.
"No, no, let’s talk this out, don’t get physical, don’t get physical."
Feng Zhigao cried out weakly.
"Little Shan, after all, they’re wearing that uniform; hitting them might cause trouble. Maybe we should just let it go?"
Yu Xiuxiu said to Zhang Xiaoshan, sowhat worried.
Zhang Xiaoshan hesitated.
Then he asked Li Erniu and the others to back off.
"You guys step back."
Only then did the crowd relent, but they still maintained an intimidating posture.
Zhang Xiaoshan faced Feng Zhigao and said,
"I know you’re governnt officials, but that doesn’t an you can bully people at will. This slap is for what you owed. If you have any complaints, you can call the cops now or try slapping back, see how it feels?"
"You..."
Feng Zhigao was infuriated.
Calling the police was out of the question, considering he was in the wrong to begin with. Fighting back was even less likely; given the current situation, he would probably get pinned to the ground and brutally hamred the mont he made a move.
Of course, he couldn’t just take the slap without retaliation. He had to avenge himself on Zhang Xiaoshan within the scope of his official powers.
"Fine."
Feng Zhigao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said sinisterly.
"Alright, you’ve got guts, kid. I’ll take the loss for this slap. But I’m here on official business today, and I declare that your agritainnt business must suspend operations for rectification due to incomplete procedures, illegal wastewater discharge, and damage to farmland as reported by soone. Additionally, you are to pay a fine of two hundred thousand yuan."
"What?"
The villagers exploded upon hearing this.
"Two hundred thousand, why don’t you just rob us?"
"Exactly, you can’t control us up in the mountains—get lost!"
Currently, the entire White Dragon Village was depending on Zhang Xiaoshan for their livelihood; everyone was bound together by mutual interests, and they certainly wouldn’t just stand by and watch the agritainnt business go under.
Feng Zhigao sneered.
"Hmph, I’m just following the law. If you have any issues, sue in court. But today, you must close this door."
"Also, your vegetables are growing suspiciously. I think it’s necessary to conduct a thorough investigation. Zhang Xiaoshan, right? I hope you’ll cooperate."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan’s expression turned cold.
"My agritainnt business is registered with the town office. Manager Ma personally promised that I could start operation first and the procedures were being completed."
"How is it suddenly illegal?"
"Also, two hundred thousand, don’t you think this fine is excessive?"
"It seems to you’re just looking for trouble."
"Registered?"
Feng Zhigao scoffed in disdain.
"What does it matter if you’ve registered? Isn’t it a fact that you’re currently lacking the proper docuntation?"
"Operating without the paperwork is unacceptable; you must suspend your business for rectification."
"Furthermore, you’ve been officially reported for privately discharging wastewater and polluting others’ land. Compensation must be made for that."
"Who did I pollute the land of?"
Zhang Xiaoshan was very discontented.
"!"
At that mont, Liu Qingchun stepped out from the crowd and accused Zhang Xiaoshan.
"The land beneath Wu Damming’s house, where all the wastewater has flowed, how am I supposed to farm it next year?"
"Nonsense."
An old man from the village stood up and spoke.
"You’re talking nonsense. Below here is a triangular piece of wasteland, not even a full third of an acre. If anything, it’s Wu Damming’s vegetable patch. How did it beco your land?"
"I distributed all the village land back in the day. How could I not know?"
"I..."
Liu Qingchun said with so guilt.
"That was later promised to by Wu Damming."
"I don’t care, it still encroached upon my interests regardless."
Throwing a tantrum and acting shalessly.
Looking at the way Liu Qingchun was behaving, and then at Feng Zhigao and his group.
Zhang Xiaoshan imdiately understood that they were colluding, inside and out, creating trouble for him.
"Very well, Liu Qingchun, you’ve gotten bold, daring to collude with outsiders to wreak havoc in the village?"
Zhang Xiaoshan’s gaze was cold as he stared at Liu Qingchun.
The villagers were also very agitated.
"Damn Liu Qingchun, so you went to snitch. You won’t die a good death."
"I hope your son is born without an anus."
"You, don’t you ss around, huh."
Seeing that the villagers seed ready to get physical, Liu Qingchun quickly took refuge behind Feng Zhigao.
"What’s going on? Do you want to commit murder to silence soone?"
"I think your village’s collective consciousness is problematic. You need to strengthen your study sessions."
"Since this issue has been reported, we must carry out an investigation. Regardless of the outco, this agritourism business must cease operation until we have thoroughly investigated."
"And when will you have investigated thoroughly?"
Zhang Xiaoshan asked with a cold face.
Feng Zhigao smirked with malicious satisfaction.
"That’s different. After all, this matter is complicated, especially the ownership issue of that wasteland below. We need to check that thoroughly. This way, we wouldn’t be wronging you, right? If it’s fast, ten days to half a month, but it could be as slow as a year or even two. We surely have to follow the necessary procedures. We are just acting according to the rules, so understand."
"What?"
"A year or two?"
The villagers burst into an uproar.
"This is the hope of our whole village. Are you joking with us?"
"I think you didn’t co to work on the case; you specifically ca to cause trouble."
Even a fool could see there was sothing fishy at this point.
"Hmph, Zhang Xiaoshan, you want to fight with , trying to force to send my wife away, I’ll let you see what I’m capable of first."
"Let’s see what you do now," Liu Qingchun said with a face full of smugness.
Zhang Xiaoshan’s expression was icy at that mont.
He of course knew sothing was off, but with Feng Zhigao and his crew in uniform, spouting righteousness and morality, taking direct action himself would probably just invite trouble later on.
"What nonsense!"
Just then, a commanding voice ca from the entrance to the courtyard.
Instinctively, everyone turned their heads to look, only to see a group of people standing at the doorway.
Leading them was a man and a woman.
The man was in his fifties, with a square face and an imposing presence.
The woman was about thirty, with a graceful figure and a chilly deanor.
It was none other than Jiang Hanwen and his daughter, Jiang Man.
Behind them were staff mbers from the Yang City governnt and Wanshan County governnt, as well as a group of guards dressed in black.
