"Since you can make the decisions, I'll be straightforward. My terms are simple: you give the land at Qingfeng Ridge unconditionally. I've brought the contract today; as long as you're ready to sign, I'll return this little box to you."
After speaking.
Zhou Tong tapped the urn in the hairy man's hand.
Chen Fang nodded slightly, turning to Tan Xiao, "Young Master Zhou's terms seem very reasonable to . Since we have no use for that land at Qingfeng Ridge, let's just give it to Young Master Zhou."
Upon hearing this.
Tan Xiao felt bewildered.
Chen Fang had initially insisted "not an inch of land," which led to the prolonged standoff. How could he agree at the first eting?
Zhou Tong smiled and said, "I knew it, there are sensible people here. We're all making a living in the sa county, crossing paths frequently. What's the benefit of offending ? Co on, bring the contract for Mr. Tan to sign."
As soon as he finished speaking.
A subordinate handed a contract to Chen Fang.
Chen Fang took the contract and examined it carefully, which took about a minute, then he closed the contract and said, "I've reviewed it. The contract doesn't have any major issues. But Young Master Zhou, I have a question. May I ask?"
At this mont, Zhou Tong.
Had already let down his guard towards Chen Fang.
He waved his hand and said, "Brother, feel free to speak."
"I'm a bit confused. I see you're in good health, though there's a slight darkness on your forehead. But it's not urgent. Once I give you the land, when will you be burying soone there? Or are your parents nearing the end and you plan to bury them there?"
As soon as this was said.
Tan Xiao, who was previously baffled, burst into laughter.
It was clear.
Zhou Tong didn't understand the aning of the statent.
He turned to ask, "What's this talk about parents? What does he an?"
But there was soone who understood.
A younger brother leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Boss, he's mocking you. He's asking if your parents are about to die soon."
Upon hearing this.
Zhou Tong's smile stiffened.
Just as he was about to curse angrily.
Chen Fang said, "Young Master Zhou, don't be angry. I'm just soone who speaks directly. You want this piece of land—isn't it for burying people?"
"Bury your mother! Fuck!"
Zhou Tong exploded in rage.
Throwing a punch towards Chen Fang's face.
Chen Fang, already on guard, stepped back and easily dodged it.
He said, "See, Young Master Zhou? Why are you so hot-tempered? I've already said the land is yours unconditionally, yet you're being unreasonable. How can we conduct this business?"
After missing.
Zhou Tong felt humiliated.
He threw another punch at Chen Fang.
This ti, Lin Youyu intervened.
With a swift hand movent, he caught the punch in his palm with a clap.
Lin Youyu stood firm, unmoved, while Zhou Tong was knocked off balance, staggering back and hitting a tombstone, groaning in pain.
"Boss, boss..."
Just as Zhou Tong was about to rally his subordinates to fight.
A panicked voice erged from the crowd.
The blond guy who had been beaten on the mountain hurriedly ran up, clutching his cheek.
At the sight of Chen Fang.
He instinctively stepped back.
"Speak!"
Zhou Tong barked.
With a trembling voice, the blond pointed at Chen Fang, "They... they just beat... they beat our brothers down the mountain..."
"Alright, you dog! I get it now. You're not here to resolve things; you're here to cause trouble, huh? Fine then, if that's the case, I have no reason to negotiate. You want to play tough? I'll show you whose head is harder in Changming County, yours or my fists. Brothers, beat them to death for !"
Zhou Tong waved his arm.
And the fifty or so subordinates beca agitated.
They noisily surrounded Chen Fang and his companions.
In the midst of this oppressive crowd, Chen Fang and his two companions appeared quite frail.
"A bunch of blind dogs, daring to provoke Young Master Zhou in Changming County? Seems like you don't want to live well anymore."
Now the blond gained confidence.
Pointing at Chen Fang, he kept taunting.
Despite the overwhelming odds.
Chen Fang remained unflustered.
Having experienced all kinds of challenges over the years.
Just as the opponent was about to attack.
Chen Fang's phone suddenly rang.
"Young Master Zhou, hold off on fighting, let take this call first."
Chen Fang gestured dismissively.
Amid Zhou Tong's surprise.
Chen Fang pressed the speaker button.
"Hey, Brother Cheng, where are you? If you don't co soon, little brother won't be able to hold on."
Chen Fang said jovially.
On the phone, Zhang Cheng chuckled, "Don't rush, look behind you."
With the speaker on.
Everyone heard the conversation, and instinctively turned to look downhill. One glance, and everyone was stunned.
On the steps.
A middle-aged man led the way.
Followed by two won, Fang i and Fang Gui.
Behind them, thirty or so uniford security personnel wielding rubber batons marched grandly. Though not as nurous as Zhou Tong's n, their presence was overwhelming.
Zhou Tong noticed this too.
He squinted as he stared for a while.
Until Zhang Cheng ca into full view.
Fear crept onto his face.
Zhang Cheng was a notable figure in Changming County, his reputation lingering even though he had long stepped away from the underworld.
"Well, if it isn't the illustrious Young Master Zhou! Haven't seen you in a while."
An old general with the presence of one.
Zhang Cheng walked over calmly, hands clasped behind his back.
The gangsters naturally parted to make way.
In front of Zhou Tong, Zhang Cheng greeted lazily, appearing relaxed.
Zhou Tong saw this.
And scoffed, "No wonder this brat is obnoxious; he has Brother Cheng backing him. Brother Cheng, why not settle into retirent at your age? Why ddle in societal affairs unnecessarily?"
With Zhang Cheng.
Zhou Tong rarely interacted.
Heard of his reputation, knew him as an old hand, yet since their paths seldom crossed, he paid little heed.
"Can't help it, I heard soone bullied my brother, how can I ignore it as his elder?"
Zhang Cheng laughed coldly.
Zhou Tong sighed deeply.
Dismissively he said, "Zhang Cheng, I acknowledge your reputation, but tis have changed. You know my status now, and I don't want to argue. Sensibly, take your people and leave, or in future Changming County, earning a living won't be easy for you..."
