After leaving the lake, when Fang Ming and Hu Fu arrived at the foot of Qingmen Mountain, they found that many people had gathered here and blocked the excavator that wanted to enter the mountain.
"What happened?"
Hu Fu was surprised and walked over there, followed by Fang Ming. His hearing was much better than Hu Fu's, so he heard the quarrel over there and probably knew what happened.
"I tell you, no matter who your boss is, you can't touch this mountain."
"Yes, this is our mountain in Qinghe Village. No one has touched this mountain for generations. We will fight with anyone who wants to touch this mountain!"
In front of several excavators, many villagers surrounded the path of the excavators, and one of them, a middle-aged man, shouted angrily.
"They took care of the government, but we didn't agree. This mountain is related to the feng shui dragon vein of our Qinghe Village. If it is destroyed, our entire Qinghe Village will suffer."
Hearing this, many villagers had angry looks on their faces.
"What are you talking about!"
Hu Fu approached and frowned after hearing this, "What are you doing? The development of Qingmen Mountain is agreed by the city, district and even your town."
"Those officials agreed, we don't have to agree." The middle-aged man waved his hand and glared at Hu Fu.
"You... After the development of Qingmen Mountain is completed, you will also benefit from the profits. When tourists come, you can also host a farmhouse to entertain them. Isn't it better than now?"
Hu Fu was a little helpless. These villagers are really short-sighted. How much income can a tourist attraction bring to them? If nothing else, people who come here must eat. When the time comes, these villagers will set up a farmhouse.
The price is a little cheaper than the above, but it still makes some money.
Even if this doesn't count, workers are needed for project development. If people in the village don't want to go out to work, they can come and do part-time work. In addition, after the project is developed, people will be needed for maintenance and cleaning. These jobs are naturally given priority to the people in the village.
Although the money is not a lot, for those women in the village who are in their forties or fifties, they can still earn more than guarding one-third of an acre of land because they do not go out to work.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Businessmen are all evil-hearted. What he says now is good, but when it is really developed, he will not be able to cash in on anything, whether it is a job or a farmhouse. These are all fake, but our mountains
It’s really broken.”
Hu Fu was so angry that he realized that these people were doing this on purpose, and they were the so-called village bullies.
The village tyrant is usually the most powerful family in a village. Because there are many people and big fists, they are used to being domineering in the village, and they want to take advantage of everything in the village.
Village tyrants exist in any mountain village in China. In mountain villages, sometimes the law is really not very applicable. They rely on their fists. Whoever has more men and bigger fists is the tyrant.
The reason is very simple. Even the police station cannot handle a fight between neighbors in the village. If they are arrested, detained for a day or two and then released, it is nothing at all. To the villagers who were beaten, they
He will become the laughing stock of the village and will not be able to hold his head up for a long time.
It is precisely for this reason that the phenomenon of favoring sons over daughters is very serious in rural areas. Many poor people are desperately trying to have sons so that they do not have to suffer in the future in the village.
"Then what do you want?"
Hu Fu asked directly. He wanted to see what these people would do.
"It's very simple. The development project must be contracted to people in our village. In addition, the village must be compensated with a sum of money. Only in this way will we let you develop it."
Ge Laoqi finally revealed his purpose. As a village hegemon, he still had his own source of information. He knew that the development rights of Qingmen Mountain had been bought by others, and he also inquired about the buyer, who was from another town in the same city.
The Hu family was not that powerful, so he came up with the idea of extorting money.
A tourist attraction development project costs at least tens of millions. If he contracts it and then subcontracts it, or sells the contracting rights, he can earn tens of millions at least.
Therefore, he brought his family members over to make trouble. As for asking for compensation, it was to incite other villagers to join in. As long as the whole village is united, even if the government comes, it can only come and follow
They negotiate.
Ordinary people are afraid of the government, but village tyrants like them are not afraid because they understand the government's style of doing things, which is to seek stability.
"Contract for you?"
Hu Fu sneered. If he really agreed, it would be a crappy project. You know, the Hu family had invested all their wealth this time, and it was also related to their fifth grandfather's Feng Shui. How could they agree?
"Don't even think about it. We have an agreement signed by the government. It is illegal for you to stop here. Believe it or not, I will call the police and arrest you!"
"Hey, did you hear that? This is what the capitalists said. They have no intention of compensating our village at all. I don't believe it anymore. I wonder how the police will come to arrest us?"
Ge Laoqi raised his arms and shouted, and a young man behind him swung an iron bar and smashed it towards the excavator in front of him.
"Kill these black-hearted capitalists and tell them to get out of our village."
Many villagers were incited, most of them were members of the Ge family, but there were also villagers from other families. These villagers were not all fools, but they were willing to serve as spearmen for the Ge family because they also wanted to take advantage of it.
For the villagers, they have not read many books and do not know what a tourist attraction means to them. They only see what is in front of them and that is to get compensation.
"you!"
Hu Fu was surrounded by people from the Ge family, and he was trembling in his heart. If these people really got the urge to beat him up, he wouldn't be able to deal with it. Even if the police came, there would be nothing they could do.
"What a bunch of stupid people."
A voice came, which was not loud but clearly reached the ears of every villager. These villagers all looked in the direction of the voice, and they saw Fang Ming walking towards this direction step by step.
"Mr. Fang, these villagers are ignorant, please leave first?"
There were too many outsiders here, so Hu Fu did not call Fang Ming master. He was afraid that Fang Ming would be besieged by these villagers, so he reminded him.
"Let's go, you can't go anywhere. If you don't give me an explanation today, we will smash the car!"
Ge Laoqi rolled his eyes. From Hu Fu's words, he heard that the identity of the young man in front of him seemed to be more noble, so he would not let him go.
"fine."
Fang Ming gave Hu Fu a reassuring look, and his eyes fell on Ge Laoqi. Ge Laoqi stared back without fear, "What are you looking at? Let me tell you, although we are poor and our lives are cheap, your lives are
There is only one thing, if you dare to force yourself into the project, we will fight for our lives with you."
Hearing Ge Laoqi's words, Fang Ming smiled happily. The next moment, without any expectation, a kick suddenly came out. Ge Laoqi was caught off guard and was kicked three meters away by Fang Ming.
Outside, it knocked down several villagers and then stopped.
"Someone is being beaten, someone is being beaten, everyone, come on!"
Ge Laoqi was beaten, and everyone in the Ge family was furious. However, except for the Ge family, the other villagers stopped making trouble because they were shocked by Fang Ming.
These villagers were not very courageous to begin with. They were usually honest and courteous people. This time they came to cause trouble with Ge Laoqi. Naturally, they became timid immediately when they saw Ge Laoqi being beaten.
The rest of the Ge family wanted to rush forward, but when they were glanced by Fang Ming's eyes, they all stopped moving because Fang Ming's eyes made them feel scared, and the eyes made them feel cold.
"What are you still doing?"
Ge Laoqi found that his family members were not moving, so he stood up holding his stomach with a look of confusion on his face. He was about to speak, but when his eyes met Fang Ming's, his eyes trembled and his mouth couldn't help but
blurted out a sentence.
"I want to blackmail the developer, get the project and then subcontract it to make money. As for the compensation, as long as the developer agrees to give me the contracting rights, I can help him get the villagers. I don't know how easy it is to fool these villagers. If they don't obey, I will directly
Just give him a good beating, Qinghe Village belongs to our Ge family."
Uproar.
Ge Laoqi's words caused an uproar on the scene. The non-Ge villagers all looked at Ge Laoqi with angry eyes. It turned out that they were being used by Ge Laoqi.
"This...this is not what I said."
Ge Laoqi covered his mouth first, and then quickly defended himself. He was about to cry, so why did he suddenly say what was in his heart?
"Ge Laoqi, luckily all of us really thought you were doing it for the benefit of the village. We didn't expect you had such a purpose."
"That's right, Ge Laoqi, you want to use us as gunmen. We quit and everyone leaves."
The villagers in Qinghe Village dispersed. At this moment, only a dozen people from the Ge family were left. These people all looked at Ge Laoqi. What should they do next?
"Let's just go. If there is no butcher Zhang, we won't eat mixed pigs."
Ge Laoqi broke the jar and looked at Fang Ming, "In short, you won't be able to develop this project without money. Even if the government comes, it will be useless."
Ge Laoqi has this confidence. As a village bully, he has a good relationship with the town, and he also has many friends in the police station. At worst, they will not cause trouble when the police come, but they will start making trouble again after the police leave. It is impossible for the police to keep guard.
of.
Not long after Ge Laoqi finished speaking, the siren of the police car rang, and then, under the dumbfounded eyes of the Ge family, a dozen police cars appeared at the entrance of the village.
"This... this doesn't seem to be the police station's car. It seems to be the county bureau's car?"
Someone from the Ge family recognized the license plate. It was not the police cars they were familiar with from the town police station.
