That day, Li Zhe also followed Li Jianbing to Zhangjia'ao. He often passed by this place in his small shabby van when driving back and forth between Jiangcheng and Lijiaji. It's the narrowest section of the road, and it's the only way you can go.
On both sides of the road are disorderly and unplanned houses built illegally by the villagers. Most of them are blue brick houses, and only a few are one-story buildings. Li Jianbing also pointed to those one-story buildings and said:
"That's the house they spent half a million to build!"
Li Zhe followed Li Jianbing's finger and saw people standing outside those one-story buildings. They must be the owners of these houses.
In the distance, several middle-aged men wearing Chinese tunic suits walked towards Li Zhe. Li Jianbing also said in time:
"This is local village and town staff."
When those people arrived in front of Li Zhe, they also greeted Li Zhe:
"Hello, Mr. Li, hello, we are really famous for a long time!"
"Hello."
Li Zhe also said hello casually. Now Li Zhe can be said to be an absolute celebrity in the surrounding areas. Everyone knows that the development of Lijiaji today is all due to this young man, and this is also due to this young man. The villagers in Lijiaji continue to publicize Li Zhe's glorious deeds, which is the pride of the entire Lijiaji!
The staff in those villages and towns looked at Li Zhe in front of them and sighed in their hearts. It is really infuriating that he has achieved such great achievements at such a young age. He has single-handedly built the entire Lijiaji from a poor and backward mountain village. Nowadays, it has become a behemoth with an output value of more than billions. Even though I and others are still living a mediocre life in the township government for a long time.
The previous Lijiaji was considered to be at the bottom of the villages and towns in this radius, but now it is completely different from before, and this road construction was also proposed by the young boss of Lijiaji, so They also rushed over after hearing that Li Zhe was coming.
"Guys, I believe you all know the purpose of my visit this time. Please tell me the situation!"
For some reason, the staff members felt a sense of pressure when they heard Li Zhe's faint voice. They had never felt this kind of feeling even when they went to the district for a meeting. There was also a faint pressure on them, so they hurriedly He opened his mouth and said:
"The owners of these one-story buildings are several cousins, and they are considered powerful in this family's area. I heard that they lived outside when they were young, but later they came back to our country to work as farmers, but that kind of The hooligan habit has not been changed, and people in the village are often bullied. However, because these brothers are really ruthless, one family suddenly offended the family of these brothers, and these brothers forced the whole family to be killed. He was beaten up! So now no one dares to mess with him in the village."
"This time for road construction, a few of them did not agree with the conditions we gave. They refused to move the house and compensated 500,000 yuan. Our village and town definitely cannot afford such a large amount of money and will not be able to come up with it, so this matter is deadlocked. If you’re here, please go there in person.”
After listening, Li Zhe nodded and said, "How can an honest person get out of such a money extortion thing? It seems to be a bit of a thorn in the side."
Five hundred thousand, this is blatant blackmail. Li Zhe is rich, and even these millions of dollars are nothing in his eyes, but it does not mean that he will blackmail these Zhang brothers. !
Li Zhe also said to the township staff:
"Their house was originally built illegally. Didn't you tell them? Logically speaking, it is only right to demolish their house without paying a penny as compensation."
"I told you, but..."
The township staff also looked embarrassed, obviously there was nothing they could do about this behavior.
Li Zhe understood at a glance that most of the staff in this township were nearby villagers. If the Zhang brothers' houses were really demolished, they would inevitably be afraid of retaliation based on the Zhang brothers' behavior, and it was illegal. This kind of construction is also very common in rural areas in the countryside. It is really difficult to explain clearly.
"Okay, take me over and take a look!"
Li Zhe had already seen the people in the one-story buildings looking towards him, so he simply asked the township staff to take him there to see what kind of thorn he was, daring to extort 500,000 yuan!
When the township staff heard Li Zhe's words, they also led the way. Li Zhe and Li Jianbing followed behind. The human township staff from the several one-story buildings walked over with people and gathered together.
As he got closer, Li Zhe also saw the Zhang brothers. There were five of them, all of whom were in their thirties. They were young and strong. The tattoos exposed on their arms also showed that these brothers were not good. Sign of trouble.
The township staff took Li Zhe and Li Jianbing to the building where the Zhang brothers gathered and said:
"Zhang Mingren, Zhang Mingyi, this is Mr. Li of the Li Group. He is here specifically to talk to you about road construction."
There are five brothers in the Zhang family, and they are all cousins of the same generation, so they were named according to benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, and trust, with Zhang Mingren and Zhang Mingyi descending in order.
"The name is good, but what I do has nothing to do with benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust..."
Li Zhe looked at the five brothers of the Zhang family and cursed in his heart. These people have not learned anything about benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, and trust. These five words are simply insulting.
When the Zhang brothers heard the introduction from the township staff, they did not appear as ferocious and ignored their arrival as Li Zhe believed. Instead, they showed a flattering look and said:
"Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Li. I have admired you for a long time! Our brothers heard your name like thunder!"
Li Zhe also nodded to say hello, and Zhang Mingren, who spoke, showed no anger at all on his face, but still greeted Li Zhe and the township staff to come and sit in the room.
Akihito looks very kind on his face, but the township staff all know that this person is a smiling person. He is so polite to Li Zhe only because Li Zhe is their big benefactor. Each family has 500,000 yuan. It comes from him,
The township personnel quickly said:
"There's no need to sit down. The main thing is to talk about the road construction and the compensation for your brother's house."
Zhang Mingren still said with a smile on his face:
"What's there to talk about? Didn't I tell you that if our conditions are met, our brothers will demolish the house immediately without you having to do anything. This road construction is a great thing and our brothers also want to Let’s watch this road get repaired.”
"But your conditions are too high. How can this five hundred thousand be possible!"
"Why not? Our brothers spent five hundred thousand when we built the house. Isn't it reasonable to compensate us now for five hundred thousand?"
When he said this, the expression on Zhang Akihito's face had turned very gloomy, and there was a slight hint of threat in his tone!
When Li Zhe saw this, he also said:
"Zhang Mingren, right? You see, you said this road construction is a good thing. Why do you want to make this good thing so unpleasant?"
Li Zhe's tone was just a light one, but people who are familiar with Li Zhe know that usually Li Zhe is already impatient when he speaks like this, but when Zhang Mingren saw that Li Zhe's tone was so gentle, he smiled again on his face. He said with a serious look on his face:
"Mr. Li, you are such a big boss. Just a little leakage from your fingers is enough for us brothers. The five of us brothers combined are only 2.5 million, which is nothing to you. Yes, look at how much it will delay your road construction if it continues like this, don’t you think so?”
The brothers of the Zhang family were sure that as long as they and others did not demolish the house, the road would not be built! If Li Zhe doesn't agree to his brother's conditions, he and others will have nothing to lose if the road is not repaired. Then what's the point of the small compensation from the township? If you want to take it, just take 500,000!
"It seems that you have figured out that your house cannot be built without demolishing the road. But what does it have to do with me? The worst I can do is not build the road. Then the people along the road will be all because you brothers have no road. Now, aren’t you afraid of offending the public?”
"Hey, please don't scare me. We brothers are just fighting for our legitimate rights and interests. No one can control us!"
This is a piece of meat, a complete scoundrel!
Zhang Mingren is not afraid that Li Zhe will not build the road at all. Who dares to blame their brothers? Don’t want to live anymore!
"Roads still need to be repaired and houses need to be demolished, but you can't get the money!"
Zhang Mingren immediately became anxious when he heard this, and said to Li Zhe:
"Mr. Li, what do you mean by this? Our brothers can't understand it!"
"These houses of yours are all illegally built, which means that even if your houses were demolished, you wouldn't get a penny! I have already given you the opportunity to choose to get compensation. This is something you don't want. of!"
Li Zhe's words were very clear. Everyone present could understand what Li Zhe meant, that is, he did not intend to give any money to the brothers of the Zhang family...
Seeing that Li Zhe was so embarrassed, the Zhang Mingren brothers stood up and said directly:
"Li Zhe and our brothers have made it clear to you that it's okay if you don't give us the money. But if anyone dares to demolish our brothers' house, we brothers will fight to the death!"
Only then did the vicious look of the five Zhang brothers appear.
It's just that in Li Zhe's eyes, they are nothing at all! He still said calmly:
"Desperately? Are you just telling the truth about your fate?"
Hearing Li Zhe's words, the Zhang brothers showed angry expressions on their faces. Some of the more impulsive ones were already planning to rush up to teach Li Zhe a lesson, but were stopped by Zhang Mingren who was at the front.
"Hmph! I want to see who dares to demolish our house. As for whether this road is repaired or not, it's none of our brothers' business! Go away, Mr. Li, I won't give it away!"
Li Zhe also turned around and took Li Jianbing away. The township staff also hurriedly followed behind. Li Zhe also said directly to Li Jianbing next to him:
"Call the bulldozers here this afternoon and remove these buildings!"
