Chapter 153 Add some block to Mei Tianfu
According to Xuan Ruilin, Dingrong Company's demolition at the urban-rural fringe of Changshui District this time was an old method in the past, which was to significantly lower the price and use violent means to force them to "voluntarily leave" the unsubmissive residents. The residents all knew that the demolition compensation given by Dingrong Company was too low, and no one was willing to accept it. But unfortunately, the power of the individual was too small in the face of the violence of hooligans.
Some people signed an agreement with Dingrong Company against their will to avoid disasters due to financial loss and left with impoverished compensation. The remaining residents wanted to fight to the end, but the harassment of the gangsters became even worse, and even directly threatened the residents' personal safety.
"Their usual method is to take advantage of the night when everyone is sleeping, suddenly break into the door, tie up everyone in the family and carry them out, and then demolish the house. When the neighbors rescued the people at dawn, the house is gone, and it is impossible not to accept their demolition conditions." Xuan Ruilin explained to Li Yu.
"Isn't this a king's law?" Li Yu said in surprise, "Isn't anyone calling the police?"
He Shijia, who accompanied Li Yu, said: "These residents called the police a lot, but the police came very late every time. The criminals had already run away and could not catch any handle. These old residents were honest people, so how could they beat these hooligans? During this period, Principal Xuan was helping them collect evidence and prepare to protect their rights through legal channels, so these hooligans attack Principal Xuan."
"I understand." Li Yu understood the cause and effect of the matter, and then fell into deep thought.
Xuan Ruilin looked at Li Yu and said slowly: "Xiao Li, you saved the school today. The school wants to thank you. However, this matter has nothing to do with you after all, and you should not be involved in such disputes. You must know that although you know a little martial arts, the other party has a very powerful force, and it is not something you can handle alone. What's more, it is easy to avoid open guns and hidden arrows are hard to prevent. I can't let my students take this risk. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Li Yu nodded, and then said, "Principal Xuan. I'm not entirely for you. Mei Tianfu and I have a little personal grudge. It would be fine if we didn't have the chance to meet in the past. Since we met this time, I won't be polite to him."
"Do you have a personal grudge with Mei Tianfu?" Xuan Ruilin stared at Li Yu with wide eyes. He really couldn't imagine any personal grudges like Li Yu and a high-ranking real estate company boss.
Li Yu did not explain, but just said, "Principal Xuan, this time I scared that group of hooligans away. I believe Mei Tianfu will definitely not give up."
"Of course, he still has to demolish this piece of land." Xuan Ruilin said.
"Yes." Li Yu said, "He would either let the gangsters continue to cause trouble, or he would find someone else to do this. Since I have intervened, I will take care of it to the end. However, I need to get the cooperation of those old residents. Otherwise, I will be no longer accused of Wuming."
"This is not difficult." Xuan Ruilin said, "Just... are you sure you want to intervene in this matter?"
"A gentleman's words." Li Yu said calmly.
"Mei Tianfu is not easy to deal with. He is also very famous in the city. Whatever he wants to do, the city leaders will also give him some face." He Shijia reminded.
Li Yu said: "Teacher He is right to remind me that I also need to find someone with status to compete with him. If he wants to find a leader to support me, I will not be able to find a bigger leader."
"Li Yu, what are you doing?" Xuan Ruilin was shocked. Li Yu's words clearly didn't look like they could say something an ordinary migrant worker could.
Li Yu smiled and said, "Actually, I am a migrant worker, but because I have some martial arts and several prescriptions in my ancestors, I also made friends with a few people with a good reputation. Last time, a real estate boss fell ill. I cured him. If I ask him for help, he should agree."
"The boss of real estate?" He Shijia said curiously, "Which company belongs to?"
"Ribo." Li Yu said.
"You mean... Mr. Ma?" He Shijia was also shocked. Ma Lei of Ruibo was a big entrepreneur who was as famous as the prosperous Mei Tianfu. The two had similar status in the city. If Li Yu could get the support of Ma Lei and fight Mei Tianfu, he would have a chance of winning.
Li Yu thought more than He Shijia and Xuan Ruilin. Ma Lei wanted to make things difficult for Mei Tianfu, but only Li Yu knew about this. If Li Yu wanted to make some trouble for Mei Tianfu, Ma Lei would definitely help him with all his strength after he knew it. This is not a problem of Li Yu asking Ma Lei for Ma Lei to do things, but Li Yu was helping Ma Lei vent his anger. To put it bluntly, if Ma Lei wanted to charge Ma Lei for hard work, Ma Lei would happily pay it.
With Ma Lei as the backing, Mei Tianfu's foreign aid on the government can be offset. At the least, the government will also adopt a method of mixing things and will not make things difficult for Li Yu. What Li Yu wants to do is to help the residents here fight for legitimate rights and interests, and have the upper hand in morality and law. As long as the government does not take the lead, Mei Tianfu cannot do anything to Li Yu.
Li Yu naturally would not tell Xuan Ruilin and the others about these things. After asking about Xuan Ruilin's injuries, he said goodbye and left, and went into the dark room to interrogate the two members of Zhang Xiaolong's gang who were captured by him.
As the slaughter, the two gangsters dared not speak stubbornly. Before Li Yu asked, they confessed everything about themselves and Zhang Xiaolong's gang, just like pouring beans.
These two gangsters, one named Ke Qinghua and the other named Mao Jianxing, are both natives in Changshui District. They have been following Zhang Xiaolong for two or three years. Because of their timidity and weak physical strength, they are cannon fodder in Zhang Xiaolong's gang. They stand behind and shout when fighting, but are not valued by Zhang Xiaolong. In contrast, the two who injured Xuan Ruilin are Zhang Xiaolong's capable generals and do many bad things.
Zhang Xiaolong's gang is a second-tier gang in Changshui District, mainly engaged in activities around Liushu Village, and has done a lot of things like stealing, but the most profitable business is to help real estate companies carry out violent demolition. This time, the one who hired Zhang Xiaolong was a business unit under Dingrong Company. Strictly speaking, Mei Tianfu was not their direct employer. Dingrong Company did not give them much money, and it was allocated to each gangster, which was a thousand dollars. Everyone was not motivated enough.
"Brother, we really didn't beat your principal. We were just making soybean..." The two gangsters defended Li Yu with aggrieved expression on their faces.
Li Yu nodded and said, "I know, I don't plan to make things difficult for you either. Let me ask, if I let you two go, what are you going to do? Will you go back to Zhang Xiaolong?"
The two gangsters shook their heads together. Ke Qinghua said, "The grandson has just returned to Zhang Xiaolong's place. This coward has sold us both."
"That's it!" Mao Jianxing echoed, "Zhang Xiaolong has always bullied good and feared evil. The bosses on the road look down on him, so we can't follow him. This time, you saw it too, we scolded him, it's impossible for us to go back."
"If you don't go back to Zhang Xiaolong, where are you going?" Li Yu asked.
Ke Qinghua said in frustration: "Who knows, if it really doesn't work, I'll go home and squat down first."
"Yes, look for somewhere to work." Mao Jianxing said, "But it's not easy to work now. You're either tired or you can't get much money, and you really can't make it."
Li Yu looked at the two of them and was very contemptuous. This is a typical lazy and greedy guy who wants to spend money and don’t want to work hard. Apart from being a gangster, there is really nothing more suitable for them.
"I have a suggestion, do you want to hear it?" Li Yu said.
"Brother, tell me." The two gangsters responded at the same time. They were not interested in Li Yu's suggestions, but Li Yu said that they could not flatter him. They remember Li Yu's feat of bent an iron rod.
Li Yu pointed to his nose and said, "What are you willing to do with me?"
"Fuck you?" Both of them were stunned.
Ke Qinghua asked dumbly: "Brother, what are you doing?"
Li Yu smiled and said, "What do you think I'm doing?"
Ke Qinghua thought for a while and said, "Brother, you are also on the Tao, right? I heard you tell Zhang Xiaolong that you and Mr. He have had tea together. Your good kung fu must be on the Tao."
Li Yu smiled and said, "You can think this way, that's fine, what, what do you want to do with me?"
"What else can I say!" Mao Jianxing rushed to express his opinion, "Fuck you with your elder brother, that's much better than following Zhang Xiaolong's bastard. Brother, you have good kung fu, righteousness, and... and know Mr. He too. Zhang Xiaolong doesn't even have to carry your shoes."
"Yes, yes, what's Zhang Xiaolong in front of you?" Ke Qinghua also flattered.
"Okay, since you both are willing to follow me, you will be my people in the future. Now I need you to find 20 people for me, and I have something to leave to you." Li Yu ordered.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Ke Qinghua asked carefully. He said he was willing to hang out with Li Yu. Half of it was worshipping Li Yu's martial arts, and the other half was because he was still Li Yu's prisoner, so he could only speak in his tone. But when he was looking for someone to do something, he still had to ask clearly before talking.
Li Yu said: "What are Zhang Xiaolong busy with these days?"
"Demolition." Ke Qinghua replied.
Li Yu said: "That's fine. What I want to do is to prevent him from demolition. You can hire 20 people for me now, each person costs 100 yuan a day, and they are responsible for guarding Liushu Village for me. Whoever dares to make trouble will deal with him, do you understand?"
"This..." Ke Qinghua and Mao Jianxing were both stunned. What's the matter? They spent thousands of dollars a day just to stop Zhang Xiaolong's violent demolition. What is his new boss trying to do?
