The Physician Tycoon

The bodyguard tilted his head to the side, dodging Ding Ergou's punch, and then landed a backhand punch on Ding Ergou's chin, causing Ding Ergou to fall to the ground.

The three rascals of Peach Blossom were usually as close as brothers. When Ding Ergou was knocked down, his crooked mouth and red eyes blazed with anger. He rolled up his sleeves and charged forward, cursing under his breath.

"Damn it, how dare you hit my brother! I'll kill you!"

The bodyguard was highly skilled; with two quick punches, he knocked the crooked-mouthed man down.

Although these two have done their share of bad things, they've mostly been petty thieves and thieves, not truly heinous criminals. After all, they're from Peach Blossom Village, and it's not their place for outsiders to teach them a lesson.

When the villagers saw Ding Ergou being beaten down, they were filled with righteous indignation and swarmed around him.

"Folks, Guo Xiaogui is bullying us! He even dared to hit people! Attack him!"

"Beat that son of a bitch!"

Seeing that things were going badly, Guo Xiaogui quickly fled into the store, where four bodyguards lined up to block the crowd.

Ye Erniang rushed forward and started fighting with a bodyguard. The two exchanged blows, and Ye Erniang was surprisingly not at a disadvantage.

Ye Kai used his One-Finger Divine Skill to remotely press the bodyguards' pressure points, causing all four bodyguards to feel a numbness in their bodies, and their strength vanished without a trace.

They were terrified and watched as the crowd surrounded them. They tried to escape, but their feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, unable to move an inch.

They could only watch as the angry crowd swung their fists, raining blows on their faces, before collapsing limply to the ground.

Hundreds of feet trampled wildly on them, and the bodyguards were quickly beaten unconscious.

Fearing someone might die, Ye Kai shouted, "Folks, stop fighting! It'll be a disaster if someone dies!"

The crowd stopped and looked at the four bodyguards, who were lying on the ground like dead dogs, foaming at the mouth, their eyes rolled back, and convulsing.

Still not satisfied, Ding Ergou kicked each of the bodyguards, cursing, "You son of a bitch, you called me a dog? I think you're the dogs, you dead dogs! I'll curse your ancestors eight times over!"

Someone shouted, "Where's Guo Xiaogui? Come out and die!"

Then everyone remembered that Guo Xiaogui was the person they were looking for, and they rushed into the store!

Just then, sirens blared, and two police cars pulled up and stopped behind the group.

Seven or eight policemen got out of the car. The leader was a middle-aged man with a square face and big ears. He was Qi Longdong, the director of Taohua Town Police Station.

Holding a large megaphone, he shouted, "Fellow villagers, don't act recklessly! Killing someone is punishable by death, and causing a disturbance is illegal. Everyone, come out and stand in line!"

When everyone saw the police arrive, they all came out of Guo Xiaogui's shop.

Qi Longdong said, "What are your demands? Elect a few representatives and come with me to the police station!"

Wai Zui and Ding Er Gou stepped forward. Qi Longdong waved his hand when he saw the two of them.

"You're all frequent visitors to the police station, so you shouldn't go anymore. Find some other people!"

Ye Qingshan stepped forward, "I'll go!"

Ye Erniang also stepped forward, "I'll go too!"

Qi Longdong nodded. "Okay, you two come with me."

Ye Kai stepped forward as well, "I'll go too."

Qi Longdong sized up Ye Kai. "What's your name?"

"My name is Ye Kai."

"Ye Kai?" Qi Longdong felt the name was somewhat familiar, but couldn't quite place it.

Ye Qingshan said, "He is my nephew from the same clan, a college student."

Qi Longdong remembered: there was a bright student in Peach Blossom Village who got into a prestigious university, but later became mentally challenged and was sent back by the school.

"Oh, so you're Ye Kai, the one who went mad from practicing martial arts!"

"Yes."

"Weren't you supposed to be out of your mind? What are you doing at the institute?"

"I'm better now, I'm perfectly normal."

"Alright then, you can come along too."

At this moment, Guo Xiaogui came out of the shop, "Chief Qi, these troublemakers are causing a disturbance and extorting money from me. You must stand up for me!"

Qi Longdong patted Guo Xiaogui on the shoulder, "I was just looking for you, you should come with me!"

Qi Longdong and the others got into the police car and sped away.

"Let's go to the police station!"

Someone said something, and everyone climbed onto tractors, tricycles, bicycles, and donkeys and headed straight for the police station.

More than a hundred people, plus onlookers, completely surrounded the police station.

Mediation room at the police station.

Guo Xiaogui spoke with a red face and a thick neck, spitting everywhere.

He accused the villagers of making baseless accusations, claiming they had no evidence to prove his watermelons were genetically modified.

As a famous emperor once said, they were nothing more than shrewish and unruly people from a poor, remote place.

Guo Xiaogui countered, claiming that the villagers had gathered to cause trouble, severely impacting his business and reputation, and had even injured his bodyguard.

It dealt a heavy blow to his fragile soul, causing him immense spiritual loss.

He demanded that the villagers compensate him for his business losses, emotional distress, and miscellaneous expenses such as his bodyguard's medical expenses and lost wages, totaling 500,000 yuan!

Qi Longdong also sided with Guo Xiaogui, saying there was no evidence to prove that Guo Xiaogui's melon seedlings were problematic.

He has a very good relationship with the Guo family and often takes food and drinks from them. His son, Qi Xiaodong, is dating Guo Tingting, the daughter of the Guo family.

Although it's not finalized yet, there's a good chance, and he'll naturally side with the Guo family at this crucial moment.

It's all the fault of those American companies; they didn't even indicate whether their seeds were genetically modified on the packaging.

The situation is very unfavorable for the villagers.

Ye Qingshan and Ye Erniang looked at each other in bewilderment. Ye Qingshan was an honest man who would not argue; Ye Erniang was good at fighting, but not good at talking.

They all looked at Ye Kai, hoping he could come up with a solution.

Ye Kai used his Soul-Capturing Technique, staring into Qi Longdong's eyes. Two beams of white light shot into Qi Longdong's eyes, taking control of his brain.

Qi Longdong suddenly slammed his hand on the table and shouted angrily, "Guo Xiaogui, you're still trying to argue! Your watermelons are genetically modified!"

You have harmed the villagers, leaving their land barren for a whole season. Your crimes are heinous! If you weren't so young, I would have shot you dead!

Qi Longdong's attitude suddenly took a dramatic turn, leaving not only Ye Qingshan and Ye Erniang speechless, but also Guo Xiaogui dumbfounded.

He couldn't understand what was wrong with Qi Longdong. He had just been on his side, but suddenly he made a complete 360-degree turn.

"Chief Qi, you're mistaken. They're the ones framing my family!"

"You brat, do you want your family to be framed again? Your dad is a big swindler, and now he's become a big traitor!"

He sells seeds and fertilizers from the US and the UK—a heinous crime! If we weren't all from Peach Blossom Town, I would have arrested and executed him long ago!

Qi Longdong spoke indignantly, these were his true feelings. As the director, he knew right from wrong.

However, he has a vested interest in Guo Dafu's family, which he cannot disclose.

He usually kept these thoughts to himself, but today Ye Kai used his soul-capturing technique to bring them out.

Qi Longdong spoke with righteous indignation, his face red and his neck thick, looking as if he could jump up at any moment and beat Guo Xiaogui up.

Guo Xiaogui was intimidated by Qi Longdong and dared not argue further, so he could only try to persuade Qi Longdong.

"Uncle Qi, calm down."

Qi Longdong's eyes widened, and he roared, "What did you call me? Who's your uncle! Call me Chief!"

Ever since Guo Tingting started dating Qi Xiaodong, Guo Xiaogui has been calling Qi Longdong "uncle" whenever he sees him. He got used to it and today, without realizing it, he called him that in front of everyone.

Realizing he had misspoke, he quickly replied, "Yes, Director Qi!"

Qi Longdong, still furious, slammed his fist on the table. "Give me one million!"

Guo Xiaogui asked, puzzled, "What are you doing?"

"Compensate the villagers for their losses, 10,000 yuan per family!"

Guo Xiaogui frowned. "I can't make that decision; I have to ask my dad!"

"Don't you dare ask your dad! Call home right now and have them send you money! If you utter another word, I'll shoot you dead!"

Qi Longdong pulled out his pistol and slammed it heavily on the table.

Guo Xiaogui shuddered in fright. Looking at the dark muzzle of the gun, he dared not speak again. He quickly called the store and asked them to send one million yuan in cash to the villagers.
