Seeing that the villagers seemed to be swayed, Zhao Datang's face turned darker than the bottom of a pot. He quickly took out his phone and started a frantic operation.
Since the soft approach didn't work, he had to resort to the hard way!
At worst, he'd run away after this. With the vastness of China, he didn't believe they could catch him!
"This is just a temporary project. Next, I plan to develop more wealth-generating projects to make everyone rich beyond their wildest dreams!"
Seeing that the crowd was tempted, Er Zhu spoke again, adding fuel to the fire.
Zhao Datang's alliance with the villagers to block the merger seemed difficult to resolve, but it was merely a paper tiger.
As long as the villagers' worries were addressed, most residents would be willing to cooperate. After all, who wanted to be poor forever!
"Okay, I'll go!"
"Me too!"
"And me!"
...
As soon as Er Zhu finished speaking, more than a dozen villagers raised their hands, their eyes gleaming as if they saw a bright future!
Witnessing this scene, a hint of admiration flashed in Accountant Jia's surprised eyes.
No wonder Uncle Liu admired Er Zhu so much; this fellow truly had talent!
With just a few words, he had solved this long-standing problem. He was indeed fit to be a village chief!
"Who dares to try!"
Just as someone was about to raise their hand, Zhao Datang's angry roar was suddenly heard. The villagers who had just raised their hands instantly had their faces darken.
They had forgotten about Zhao Datang!
This guy was more troublesome than a ghost!
"Anyone who dares to go to Liuliu Village, don't blame me for digging up your ancestors' graves!"
Zhao Datang roared at the villagers with a ferocious expression, his attitude extremely arrogant!
Although Accountant Jia was angry, he dared not make a move when he saw Zhao Datang's muscular arms. His old bones couldn't handle a fight with a young man. If he got injured, he would be the one to suffer!
Er Zhu remained expressionless, his gaze only growing colder!
"This world must have Linyuan Village, and I must be the village chief of Linyuan Village!"
At this point, Zhao Datang no longer wanted to hide his intentions. He directly revealed his true desires.
Hearing this, the villagers of Linyuan Village finally understood that Zhao Datang had not been acting for their benefit before, but to satisfy his own selfish desires!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
As some villagers were about to protest, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from afar. Er Zhu looked up and saw fifty to sixty martial artists in martial arts uniforms running from a distance like a swift wind.
"Perfect timing! Beat them to death, and the cost is on me!"
Upon seeing the newcomers, Zhao Datang seemed to have found his backing, pointing at Er Zhu and Accountant Jia with a contemptuous expression.
Accountant Jia was so scared he almost peed himself. He quickly hid behind Er Zhu, but Er Zhu remained calm.
Although the villagers of Linyuan Village were angry, they dared not move when they saw the martial artists.
They had some strength, but they wouldn't dare to fight martial artists!
Moreover, it was for an outsider...
Just as the martial artists were about to make a move, their fierce expressions instantly vanished upon seeing Er Zhu.
"Go on, what are you waiting for?"
Seeing that the martial artists hadn't attacked, Zhao Datang frowned and shouted impatiently.
He had spent a lot of money hiring them. What was the point of taking the money and not doing the job?
"Hurry up and attack, don't you want to make money?"
As soon as Zhao Datang finished speaking, another voice came from not far away. The person looked up and instantly froze in astonishment.
Big Brother!
"Big Brother, I'm sorry. I, Lin Dazhi, didn't know it was you. I'm truly sorry!"
Lin Dazhi fell to his knees with a thud, his face full of panic as he begged Er Zhu for forgiveness.
In an instant, the other martial artists also knelt and begged for mercy. The scene was filled with wails, and some timid ones were even scared into tears!
This was their Big Brother!
The Big Brother who could easily destroy the Zhao Martial Arts School!
Damn it, it was good that they were smart; otherwise, they would have been screwed over by this Zhao Datang!
Big Brother?
The villagers of Linyuan Village looked at the scene before them, completely bewildered. They discussed among themselves and looked at Er Zhu in shock.
Zhao Datang, in particular, was full of question marks, completely clueless about what was happening.
"You idiot, how dare you offend my Big Brother! Are you tired of living?"
As Zhao Datang stood there in a daze, Lin Dazhi suddenly stood up and angrily slapped him.
Instantly, a bright red palm print appeared on the side of Zhao Datang's face, making him grit his teeth in pain!
Slap!
"You son of a bitch, can't you open your dog eyes and see who you're offending!"
Just as Zhao Datang was about to question him, Lin Dazhi, filled with rage, slapped him again. Zhao Datang's face instantly began to swell visibly.
"Lin Dazhi, have you gone mad? You took my money!"
Zhao Datang was so disoriented by Lin Dazhi's blows that just as Lin Dazhi was about to strike again, he roared in anger.
"I'll return the money to you. Let's all go up and teach him a good lesson on behalf of Big Brother!"
Lin Dazhi quickly pulled a wad of red bills from his pocket, scattered them into the air, and then said to his subordinates behind him.
The subordinates quickly got up and charged at Zhao Datang at the fastest speed. Before long, the sounds of punches and kicks could be heard.
"Big Brother, we're truly sorry. We really didn't know the person we were supposed to teach a lesson was you."
Hearing Zhao Datang's moans, Lin Dazhi nodded with satisfaction and ran to Er Zhu, bowing and apologizing again.
Instantly, all eyes focused on Er Zhu, their eyes filled with shock!
Er Zhu was the Big Brother of these martial artists!
Damn, who would have thought he had such skills!
Rich and capable of fighting, Linyuan Village actually had such a talent!
A hint of admiration flashed in their shocked eyes, but at the same time, they also felt a sense of lingering fear.
Fortunately, they had agreed to the merger just now. If they had persisted in their stubbornness, they might have been the ones getting beaten.
Seeing Zhao Datang being beaten by a crowd, their hearts pounded, and fine beads of sweat broke out on their foreheads.
"Lin Dazhi, you little bastard, let me go immediately!"
Suddenly, Zhao Datang's curses could be heard. Lin Dazhi's face turned dark with anger, and he ordered the crowd:
"Still daring to curse? Beat him harder!"
Boom boom boom!
Upon hearing the order, the sounds of fists and feet colliding grew louder, even drowning out Zhao Datang's curses.
"Just don't kill him."
Just as Lin Dazhi was about to curry favor with Er Zhu again, Er Zhu glanced at Zhao Datang and slowly reminded him...
Although Zhao Datang was hateful, he was far from deserving to be beaten to death, especially at this time.
"Okay, Big Brother, don't worry. I'll definitely leave him with a breath!"
Before Er Zhu could finish speaking, Lin Dazhi nodded repeatedly, his eagerness to please evident.
Seeing this, Accountant Jia, who had just recovered from his shock, looked at Er Zhu with adoration.
He only knew that Er Zhu had good martial arts skills, but he didn't know that Er Zhu was actually a martial artist!
And, a master among martial artists!
A fool turning into a master, who would believe such a thing?
But this was the reality!
