The village beauty and me!

The area around the ruins of the houses that had been bulldozed was crowded with all kinds of vehicles.

Although I didn't see any thugs or security guards, two of the cars were particularly conspicuous.

Because it was clearly an official vehicle, which means that there were even officials present this time.

No wonder you, Village Chief Xu Huifang, are so anxious and uneasy.

If we're talking about dealing with capitalists individually, Chen Huan's endless stream of methods might actually be effective, making them want to back down.

But now that officials are stepping in to support them, this matter is probably going to be very difficult to resolve.

"Chen Huan, what should we do now?"

"There are town leaders over there too, some I know and some I don't, they're probably quite influential."

Xu Huifang was still tugging at Chen Huan's sleeve, extremely nervous.

Chen Huan clicked his tongue. "You're supposed to be the head of Lotus Village, can't you be a little more assertive?"

"Those guys used illegal contracts to cheat us out of the right to use our houses, and they even wanted to build a factory on our land. That's wrong."

"So what if officials are present? They can't distort the truth."

Ultimately, it still comes down to the law and reason.

As he said this, Chen Huan's gaze gradually turned fierce.

He then added, "If reasoning doesn't work, I have unconventional methods up my sleeve."

"Just watch from here. Anyway, I promise you I'll resolve the problem within two days, and I'm not just bragging."

After saying that, he broke free from the other person's hand that was holding his sleeve and strode towards the crowd in front of him.

He had already decided that no matter who came, he would just have to improvise.

Having ventured out and seen the world, I've come to understand many things. Sometimes, certain people and situations aren't as difficult to deal with as I imagined.

Before he even got there...

Suddenly, someone appeared out of nowhere and blocked his way.

"Mr. Chen, may I speak to you in private?" A bespectacled, refined-looking man with a hint of shrewdness smiled and pleaded in his voice.

"Liu Zhiyuan?"

"What are you doing here?" Chen Huan recognized the other person immediately.

Previously, regarding the restaurant matter, the other party who had been in contact with me was an official in the town.

The position isn't very high, but the person handles things with a sense of propriety.

Now I see him here, and he's even blocking my way.

Chen Huan couldn't help but wonder what this guy's intentions were.

Without saying a word, Liu Zhiyuan dragged him to a secluded place.

First, he took out a cigarette and handed it to him.

Chen Huan didn't take it at all. Instead, he took out a cigarette and lit it. "I'll give you ten seconds. Speak quickly if you have something to say, or shut up if you have something to say."

Just by looking at Liu Zhiyuan's expression, one could tell that his stopping him was no good.

Since they weren't there to help, Chen Huan didn't give them a friendly look at all.

If it weren't for the restaurant incident, where Liu Zhiyuan helped a lot later and the two had some relationship, Chen Huan wouldn't say a word to him now.

Liu Zhiyuan awkwardly put the cigarette away and said with a forced smile, "Our village is really a blessed place. It is said that a high-quality underground mineral water vein with high nutritional and economic value has been discovered."

Chen Huan snorted. "You have five seconds left."

Liu Zhiyuan was so anxious he was almost in tears. He hurriedly added, "I stopped you just now because I was afraid you would recklessly cause trouble."

"Did you know that the Jin Group invited leaders from the city?"

"This is no ordinary level. If you accidentally offend them, you'll ruin your future."

Liu Zhiyuan's words really piqued Chen Huan's curiosity.

"City leaders?"

Liu Zhiyuan nodded repeatedly, then quietly pointed and said, "Do you see that bread truck over there? That's the one used here."

"The person is in the car right now; I would never lie to you about something like this."

"Besides, the discovery of high-quality groundwater in the village is a good thing."

"If used properly, it could be incredibly profitable..."

Chen Huan ignored his nonsense and glanced at the location of the official vehicle.

Then he frowned. "What did you just mention about the Jin Group? What's that all about?"

Liu Zhiyuan quickly explained, "Haven't you heard of the Jin Group?"

"This is a very famous conglomerate in our province, with a very prestigious family reputation."

Do you still remember the Ma family in Dongjiang City?

"You used to be a big shot in Dongjiang City, right? But in front of the Jin Group, you're just a nobody."

"The company that discovered the high-quality mineral water source beneath the village is a subsidiary of the Kim Group."

"Their company is taking this matter very seriously right now..."

Liu Zhiyuan intentionally mentioned the Ma family and deliberately made comparisons with both sides.

The point was to tell Chen Huan that although it was impressive that he had single-handedly overthrown the Ma family, the people in front of him, whether they were officials or people from the Jin Group who had invited them, were not on the same level as the Ma family.

You'd better not make things difficult for yourself.

Chen Huan immediately understood Liu Zhiyuan's little scheme.

While feeling surprised, I also felt a sudden surge of anger.

He snorted and said, "Trying to scare me?"

"Are you bringing in government officials and big conglomerates from within the province to gang up on our Lotus Village?"

"Who opens a factory in a village where people live? Isn't that just ripping them off?"

Chen Huan's voice became much louder.

Moreover, his arrival had already attracted a lot of attention.

Now, even those who were originally standing in the ruins have turned their attention to this place.

"Who is this person? Why are they shouting here?"

"Are you a villager? Are the village chief and other village officials here? Come and handle this immediately." A man who looked like an official stared intently at Chen Huan's location and loudly issued the order.

The leadership team of Lotus Village, headed by Xu Huifang, was filled with trepidation.

Upon hearing the order, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward, attempting to get closer.

However, Chen Huan simply waved his hand at them, saying, "It's none of your business, I'll handle it."

Xu Huifang is relatively obedient to advice.

She knew very well that even if she, as the village chief, insisted on standing up in this situation, it wouldn't make any difference.

Since we've chosen to trust Chen Huan, we must trust him to the end.

So they immediately led everyone back.

"What happened?"

"Who really calls the shots in Lotus Village?" The man who had been so imperious earlier walked over with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of superiority.

Chen Huan went straight up to him and calmly replied, "Don't you know who's in charge here?"

"The people's world belongs to the people, so of course the people have the final say."

"I happen to be one of the many villagers in Lotus Village."

"You can tell me directly if there's anything you need."
