Chapter 194: Going Too Far
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
For the entire day, Qin Xi ignored Han Shi, especially at night. Han Shi could only curl up on the sofa and sleep.
Initially, he wanted to wait for Qin Xi to fall asleep before crawling back to bed. However, Qin Xi said to him, “If you don’t listen to me, from now on, you’ll sleep outside.”
Helpless, Han Shi could only stay on the sofa for the night.`
The next day, the two of them took the train back to Shangwan Village. When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw hundreds of villagers surrounding a big car and making a ruckus.
Before Qin Xi could figure out what was going on, she heard Han Shi say angrily, “It must be Yang Wei and the others again.”
!!
Qin Xi was enlightened.
Wasn’t Yang Wei the profiteer who monopolized the tea leaves of Shangwan Village, Pingluo Village, Zaohua Village, and a few other nearby villages?
She recalled that the village chief had once said that Yang Wei had a strong background and that he had monopolized the tea market for a long time. As long as the teas were not sold according to the price he set up, he would ask the surrounding buyers not to buy the tea leaves.
In short, over the years, Yang Wei had been oppressing the villagers, making them suffer. Fortunately, there were no natural disasters or man-made disasters in the past few years. Otherwise, the villagers might have starved to death.
“Let’s go and take a look.” Qin Xi narrowed her eyes and smiled evilly.
The two of them came to the periphery of the crowd and listened to the villagers’ dissatisfied protests and complaints, as well as the angry and hateful gazes of the hooligans in the big car.
“Yang Wei, don’t go too far. You lowered the price to 50 cents in the first half of the year. Now, you still want to lower the price to 30 cents. These are all tea leaves that we painstakingly planted, not weeds. Do you even have a conscience?”
“That’s right. Not only did you lower the price, but you also owe us money. Are you still human?”
“If you don’t give us an explanation today, we’ll fight you to the death.”
“Yes, this is all our hard-earned money. We can’t let you take advantage of us.”
The villagers shouted indignantly, looking like they wanted to skin Yang Wei and the others alive.
“Village Chief Liu, are you not going to do anything? Have you forgotten the lesson you learned before?”
Yang Wei took a puff on his cigar calmly. The way he smoked was very annoying. He smiled smugly. “If I don’t buy your tea leaves because I’m angry, your hard work for the past six months will be in vain. Instead of soaking your feet in tea leaves, you might as well sell it to me for 30 cents.”
His tone was quite condescending, as if the villagers should be thankful that he offered 30 cents.
Liu Shuan was so angry that his face turned green. He clenched his fists tightly. “Yang Wei, I heard that you gave Pingluo Village 60 cents. Why did you cut it in half in Shangwan Village? The price you offered is unfair.”
“Fair? Hahahaha.”
Yang Wei seemed to have heard a good joke. He and his lackeys laughed out loud. He pointed at Liu Shuan and mocked, “You want fairness? Hahaha, Village Chief Liu, are you stupid or did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?”
His expression immediately turned extremely gloomy. “To tell you the truth, I just don’t like you all. I lower the price because I want you to suffer. What can you do to me?”
Liu Shuan was so angry that his chest rose and fell rapidly. It was as if Yang Wei was certain that Shangwan village couldn’t fight back. Every time, he would offer a lower price than the other villages. If not for the fact that he had gone overboard this time, Village Chief Liu would not have stood up and challenged him openly.
“Yang Wei, you’re going too far!”
