Chapter 305 - Country Protection Fee
“Don't start a fight so suddenly. Do you have any discipline? Let's go check out the situation first!” As a leader, Liu Zhongjun naturally had to reprimand her.
“That's right.” Qu Moyao also scolded, “Starting a fight so suddenly, who knows what will happen? If others hear us, they will think that we are a disorganized army.”
Gao Loong chuckled, “Will we know that they are here to cause trouble? Uh… After understanding the situation, will we be able to fight?”
“If they are here to cause trouble, we should use the fastest time to subdue them.” Liu Zhongjun scolded again. This brat was good at everything except for his hands. “Do you not know what our duty is? How can we tolerate the slightest mistake in this kind of place?”
“Yes, we have to subdue them.” Qu Moyao nodded in agreement, “At the same time, we should teach them a lesson. Let them know what a military place is. Who has the time to fight with them?”
Gao Loong's face was full of tears. He thought that he was still a little lacking in terms of cultivation. Look at Dr. Qu, he could even say such dignified words when he was beating people up. This was the difference between them!
While they were talking, Zhang Xiaolong and the others had already arrived at the door. They saw that the people in the lead were all unfamiliar faces. They wondered where these people came from.
Lee Xiulian was following the other party and talking. When she saw Zhang Xiaolong walking over, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. “Alright, you can tell him. Zhang Xiaolong is the boss here. If you can persuade him, we will pay the money.”
“Ms Lianzi, what's going on? Do we owe someone money?” Zhang Xiaolong asked.
“No,” Lee Xiulian felt it was funny even when she was talking to herself. She pointed at a burly young man and said, “That Heizi, he said he is from Liang Village. He established a security team and wants to protect our vegetable garden. I said no, but he insisted on coming.”
Zhang Xiaolong was amused when he heard that. So there was someone who came to the countryside to collect protection fees?
Furthermore, Liang Village came to the Clear River Village to collect protection fees. Did they have a screw loose in their heads?
The biggest difference between the countryside and the city was that every household had a connection with each other. Unlike the city, where one could not even know the name of the opposite family if they lived in the same house for half a year.
Although neighbors could quarrel over small matters and even fight, if someone from the other village wanted to bully someone here, as long as they stood on the street and shouted, a large group of people would immediately rush over.
Regardless of whether there was a conflict between the two families, they would not raise it up at this time. They could not let outsiders bully them. If that really happened, the entire village would be looked down upon. They would be a cowardly village.
It was also because Wang Tiehzhu did not come here today. If he had such a bad temper, he would probably have already picked up his weapon and started fighting.
“I don't have any security guards here for the time being. You guys should go back now. If you want to hire any, I will post the advertisement again.” Although he was happy, Zhang Xiaolong still wanted to send them away.
Although they were not from the same village, he did not want to make their relationship awkward. He could not possibly let Gao Loong have a taste of his own medicine, could he?
Speaking of which, there were so many military officers standing behind him. How could Heizi not know how to be afraid?
When he turned around, he realized that these three people had changed into casual clothes to avoid attracting attention. From the looks of it, other than Qu Moyao, who was exceptionally beautiful, the rest of them looked like ordinary people.
“Boss Zhang, right? Congratulations on your fortune.” Heizi stepped forward and cupped his hands, looking like a gangster. “We are not ordinary security guards. I heard that Boss Zhang's business is doing well, and his family has even built a two-story building. Such a big business must require protection, right? Look at our brothers. All of us have been through the streets, and our skills are not ordinary. Even five or six ordinary people wouldn't be able to get close to them. It would be perfect for Boss Zhang to use them as a show of force.”
“You mean to say that you guys are not here usually? If you have time, you can come over and take a look. You can help me keep this place safe, right?” Zhang Xiaolong smiled. He was indeed not a security guard, but a person who collected protection fees.
“Right, right, right. Boss Zhang is a businessman, so he knows everything about these things.” Heizi also smiled and said, “The fee is not high. There are only fifteen people here, and each of us will receive three thousand yuan per month. Including me, it will be fifty thousand yuan. What do you think?”
“With your kind of attitude, you are afraid that no one will want you as a security guard, yet you still want to work here for a measly three thousand yuan?” Gao Loong was a tall man, and he took a few steps forward and roared.
When Heizi heard this, he was displeased, “Even Boss Zhang didn't say anything, who do you think you are?”
He then turned around and tried to get closer to Zhang Xiaolong, “Look, we are all from the countryside, and we are not far from each other. You should know that the villagers are greedy for cheap things, and if you are not careful, someone might come and steal your chicken or dog. Boss Zhang is a big boss, and he doesn't care about that little bit of money, but he won't hurt you. With us brothers here, no one will dare to cause any trouble.”
Zhang Xiaolong was a little displeased, “First of all, I don't know what the Liang Village is like. At least in the Clear River Village, there is no such thing as stealing chickens and dogs here. Secondly, I don't need to find someone to be my guardian. Even if I do, I will consider the people in the Clear River Village. A salary of three thousand yuan per month is given to the villagers, and that is what I want.”
Zhang Xiaolong could just take the money and leave. If Zhang Xiaolong were to give it to the villagers, and they claimed that it was used to monitor the people in the village, then he would be an idiot.
If anyone in the Clear River Village knew about this, even if it was to vent their anger, they would still come and cause trouble. How could there be such a heartless boss?
“Thirdly, do you know that there is a military camp in the Clear River Village?” Without waiting for the other party to speak, Zhang Xiaolong added, “You don't need to worry about the safety of this place. You people, don't think that after living in the city for a period of time, you will still want to bring that kind of thing back to your home. In our place, we don't care about that.”
“Tsk tsk, Boss Zhang, you were praising me just now. Why can't you understand it now?” Seeing that things were about to go south, Heizi hurriedly went forward to persuade him again. “Even if there are more troops, what can they do to him? It's just like the police station. They will let you go out after two days. After all, it's not a big deal. Do you still want him to be in jail? It's not me who said that. Boss Zhang's business is so big. If you don't find some people to watch over the place, it will be very easy for problems to arise. At that time, even the army won't be able to do anything. They can't watch over your place 24 hours a day. Do you think that the garrison is owned by your family?”
“Don't talk nonsense. If you have the ability, knock me down first.” Gao Loong was already impatient. This thing in front of him was simply here to get beaten up.
This time, Heizi did not avoid it. He suddenly pointed behind him and said, “Look at the flying saucer!”
Taking advantage of the moment when Gao Loong turned his head around, he fiercely kicked the other party.
Gao Loong sneered. He was just giving him face and pretending. Did he really think that he was so easy to fool? He turned his hand and punched the other party's leg bone, then kicked again.
