Hearing that sentence from Third Uncle, "lend it or not, you have to lend," Shen Qiang's temper flared. To put it simply, for Shen Qiang now, thirty million and three hundred bucks are the same, so Shen Qiang doesn't care about the money, but he does care about the matter itself.
After not contacting for over a decade, Third Uncle ran over here to force Shen Qiang to lend thirty million to Ma Jiyong in exchange for getting his own son to work as a manager at Ma Jiyong's car shop.
He didn't even consider whether Ma Jiyong would return that thirty million to Shen Qiang.
Perhaps in his view, it's Ma Jiyong who's borrowing money, whether it gets paid back or not has nothing to do with him. It's Shen Qiang's problem if the money goes out and doesn't come back, also unrelated to him, he just wants to see his son become a manager. As long as his son can become a manager, why would he care if Shen Qiang lives or dies?
Not only that, what made Shen Qiang even angrier was...
If Third Uncle merely wanted his son to have a decent job.
He could have just asked directly.
Heshenghe Group has over one hundred and forty subsidiaries.
Don't mention one person's job issue, even one hundred people's jobs would be no problem.
But what's Third Uncle's mindset?
My son became a manager, not relying on you, Shen Qiang, that was through his own ability.
Yet, he completely neglected to consider, if not for the purpose of borrowing money from Shen Qiang, would Ma Jiyong let his son become a manager? And start working next week?
Shen Qiang got angry, his face turned stern.
But before Shen Qiang could speak.
The door opened, and Shen Qiang heard the voice of the village security liaison captain: "Yo, lend it or not you have to lend, isn't that just robbery? Who said that, stand up and let me see, who's so awesome to dare home invasion and robbery under the broad daylight?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed. The village security liaison captain is actually what's commonly referred to as the militia captain in the past; the former militiamen are now the security liaison members.
As soon as he said this, if Third Uncle pretends any further, he's definitely going to get beaten up and then be sent to the police station.
"Oh dear, Captain Li, what are you talking about? This is our Shen family's private matter." Third Uncle was not convinced.
At this moment, the Village Chief who followed behind the village security liaison captain got angry.
"What the hell are you talking about, it's your Shen family's matter? Weren't you the one who said Old Shen the Honest was dirt-poor in the village and didn't know him? Now, what's with the act?"
Third Uncle immediately went silent,
Second Sister-in-law laughed: "Yo, Old Shen's done this before? Haha, hilarious."
Aunt Xiu Lian sneered: "Oh my, what Old Shen said just now, I heard it clearly, 'lend it or not, you have to lend' — isn't that a village tyrant? Village Chief, didn't you say the county is going to crack down on village tyrants? I think Old Shen's qualified."
Upon hearing this, Third Uncle was stunned and then he got mad.
"Yo, Ma Xiulan, don't spew nonsense, I see, you guys are teaming up to bully me! Alright, you guys think you're great, I'm leaving."
With that, Third Uncle got up to leave.
Slap!
The village security liaison captain raised his hand and slapped him hard on the back of the neck.
Then pointed his finger at him, saying: "Sit down, have you explained the issue clearly? You're leaving? To where? Sit down properly, understand? Yingbei Village does not allow the existence of a village tyrant, sit down!"
Third Uncle was dumbfounded.
His son quickly said: "Uncle Li, you..."
"I'm not your uncle!" Captain Li interrupted, then glanced at Ma Jiyong's mohawk, his expression cold: "Just like that, you dare to bring small ruffians to Yingbei to cause trouble?"
Ma Jiyong was unhappy when he heard this, furrowed his brow: "Who the hell are you? Speak nicely to me, my name is Ma Jiyong, have you heard of me?"
Listening to this, the security liaison captain laughed: "Oh, now, this is pretty bold."
Saying this, before Shen Qiang could even react, Captain Li stepped forward and boom, kicked Ma Jiyong in the face directly.
The crew-cut standing aside sprung up, wanting to hit Captain Li.
But right at that moment,
seven to eight village security members dashed in.
They were standard northern strong men.
All over six feet tall, broad and stocky.
"What do you want to do, sit down, do you believe if you make a move, I'll knock you out!"
The crew-cut dared not move.
Watching Ma Jiyong, nose bleeding from the kick.
Captain Li grabbed his hair and pulled him to the coffee table, saying: "Squat down properly, you dirty up the sofa, I'll kick you to death!"
Upon seeing this situation, Ma Jiyong didn't dare to speak up.
Aunt Xiu Lian clichéd on some sunflower seeds, chuckling and said: "Yo, just looking at this kid's hairstyle, he's not a good one, and he looks a lot like the one who came to our back street to steal dogs!"
Hearing this, a security member next to him kicked him twice: "Say, is it you who took my missing dog?"
"No, it wasn't me!" Ma Jiyong panicked.
"Shut your mouth, did I tell you to speak?" The security liaison captain scolded.
Ma Jiyong didn't dare to make a sound.
Shen Qiang chuckled softly.
Because without guessing, Shen Qiang knew it must've been Aunt Xiu Lian who called the Village Chief and security liaison captain.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have coincidentally arrived like this.
Moreover, Yingbei Village is very close to the county town, inside the county town, there are always some small rascals, little hooligans, thinking they have lots of friends, a bit of drink and they forget their own names.
But, unless they are those truly ruthless and highly connected super gangsters, any so-called notorious rascals and scoundrels are just paper toys before the village's security liaison team, easily crushed.
Because the security liaison team, to put it bluntly, are the former militiamen.
The Village Committee has only a few people.
But the minimum requirement for the village's security liaison team is more than five people, and as Yingbei Village is relatively large, there are over twenty security members, usually not many, but now it's the second day of the new year, all gathered at home to celebrate, let alone Ma Jiyong's few, even with dozens, it wouldn't make a difference.
Moreover, the situation now is clear, they came to Shen Qiang's house asking for money, saying that he has to lend it, therefore, the kicks Ma Jiyong received were for nothing, no reasoning could alter that anywhere.
This made Shen Qiang, who was originally very angry, even ragingly wanting to finish them off, just feel like laughing because in this condition, there wasn't any need for Shen Qiang to get involved; the village's security liaison team alone was enough for Third Uncle and Ma Jiyong to have a hard time.
If unlucky, they'd get beaten up and sent to the police station.
Suddenly Shen Qiang realized, his dad was right, sometimes maintaining good neighborly relations could be more advantageous than anything, if people from the village hadn't come, and Shen Qiang had acted, the way things might have developed wouldn't be predictable.
But just as Shen Qiang thought the matter was resolved and was smiling, waiting to see them make fools of themselves.
The well-dressed young man sitting next to Ma Jiyong made a call, saying: "Mayor Hu, it's me, Secretary Xiao Ma from the County Committee, eh, I'm at Yingbei and had a little misunderstanding with the Village Committee, they don't know who I am, yes, right, okay."
Saying this, he handed the phone to the Village Chief with a smile: "You're the Village Chief of Yingbei, right? We met once, but maybe you forgot, this is Mayor Hu's call, he wants to talk to you."
