"Isn't 500,000 too much? That's someone's ancestral grave. You're asking them to move the grave, and not only do you not compensate them, but you're also making exorbitant demands. Heh, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Tang Ping lit a cigarette and said calmly.

Chen Dafa smiled and said, "Whether it's suitable or not isn't up to you. Young man, I know you have some ability, but in Chenjia Village, I am the one in charge, understand?"

He's a wolf in sheep's clothing.

On the surface, they seem friendly and amicable, but their words carry a hidden threat.

"Okay, let me present a plan, and we can all study it together."

Tang Ping paused for a moment, then continued, "It's not really a study, just consider it giving me face. I'll give you ten thousand yuan, and we'll call it even. As for the fishpond, it doesn't really matter where we dig it, right?"

"Ten thousand yuan? Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar?" Chen Fei glared at him, his voice filled with malice.

Sitting at the head of the table, Chen Dafa also sneered: "Young man, your plan is putting me in a difficult position."

Tang Ping smiled faintly, stood up, and said, "It's difficult. Then let's not do it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Ping flipped the table over, sending all the dishes flying into the air and smashing bowls and plates all over the floor.

"Are you fucking here to cause trouble? You're asking for it!"

Chen Fei was the first to rush forward, and the other members of the Chen family also grabbed stools with menacing air.

"Aping, hide behind me!"

Zhao Wei immediately stepped in front of Tang Ping. He was about to make a move, but Tang Ping was faster than him. He punched Chen Fei in the face, knocking him to the ground. Then, Tang Ping stepped on Chen Fei's head and rushed forward, grabbing a stool and charging into the crowd.

"Holy crap!"

Zhao Wei was dumbfounded. He didn't expect Tang Ping to be even more fierce than him. He didn't dare to be idle. He grabbed a stool and stood back to back with Tang Ping, waving it around continuously.

Tang Ping and Zhao Wei, facing the Chen family's group, were surprisingly evenly matched.

At the head of the table, Chen Dafa's face was covered in vegetable soup.

He was somewhat taken aback. He hadn't expected Tang Ping, who seemed like a gentle and refined young man, to turn so ruthless when he turned hostile. He hadn't been prepared at all.

At the same time, Chen Dafa was also very angry.

In Chenjia Village, no one had ever dared to treat him like this.

Tang Ping was the first person to overturn a table in his own home.

"Beat them! I'll take responsibility if they die!"

Chen Dafa wiped the vegetable soup off his face and said viciously, then looked at his wife beside him and said, "Go, go to the village and call people. Everyone from Chenjia Village, come over here. If we don't kill this little brat today, he won't know that Lord Ma has three eyes!"

The woman nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, then turned to leave. But to her surprise, a dilapidated Santana police car was parked at the door, and Chief Liu arrived with several officers.

"What are you doing? Stop! All of you, stop!"

Upon seeing the situation inside, Director Liu was shocked and immediately shouted loudly.

But nobody listened to him.

Both sides were enraged and neither was willing to admit defeat.

Director Liu looked at Chen Dafa, who was standing there with his arms crossed, watching the show, and said, "Dafa, give me some face and get them to take action quickly. If this gets out of hand, no one can afford to take responsibility!"

"It's too late. Today I have to teach this little brat a lesson. How dare he bare his teeth in my Chen family? What does he think I, Chen Dafa, am?" Chen Dafa's face was cold, showing no respect whatsoever.

Left with no other choice, Chief Liu drew his police pistol from his waist, fired a warning shot into the air, and then roared, "All of you, stop right now! Damn it, just because I'm not showing my teeth doesn't mean I'm made of clay! I'll count to three, and whoever dares to lay a hand on me again will be the first one I shoot!"

At that moment, everyone stopped.

Having a gun makes all the difference.

In rural police stations, officers are not usually armed when responding to calls, but Chief Liu, as the head of the station, is qualified to carry one.

Moreover, at this moment, he finally understood why Tang Ping had asked him to bring a gun.

To put it bluntly, this is a form of deterrence.

Without some serious force, it's really not easy to intimidate the Chen family.

Everyone stopped fighting, but Tang Ping and Zhao Wei were still surrounded.

Director Liu waved his hand and said, "Take all the troublemakers away!"

Several policemen stepped forward and arrested Chen Fei and several of his cousins, handcuffing them.

When it was Tang Ping and Zhao Wei's turn, they weren't brought along; they were simply put into the police car.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Chen Dafa quickly stepped forward and said, "Director Liu, is this really necessary? We're all from the same hometown, please give me some face."

Director Liu's face was grim. He said coldly, "I'm giving you face. Who gave me face just now? Stop talking nonsense and wait for the punishment!"

One police car wasn't enough to fit everyone, so Tang Ping and Zhao Wei sat in the back seat, while Chen Fei and the others from the Chen family had to walk behind them.

Fortunately, the police station is located in the township, which is not far away.

The fact that Director Liu was able to arrive so promptly was naturally due to Tang Ping's prior arrangements.

It wasn't that he was bribed by Tang Ping, but when Tang Ping called, he was genuinely afraid that something serious had happened, and that he, as the head of the township police station, would be the first to suffer.

When they arrived at the police station, due to the poor conditions, they could only be interrogated in a detention cell.

Tang Ping sat in the chair and said honestly, "He extorted me! I came to visit them respectfully, but they tried to blackmail me, demanding 500,000 yuan in compensation. When I refused, they started beating me, taking advantage of their numbers to bully me."

Chen Fei got angry and shouted, "Bullshit! You were the one who overturned our table first! You son of a bitch, you stinking outsider, I'll kill you sooner or later!"

"Officer, look, he's still threatening me. I'm so scared. I need to request 24-hour protection from your police."

Tang Ping spread his hands, pretending to be scared.

"I'm protecting you, my ass! You beat me up like this, and you're the victim now? You little brat, come here, I'll kill you!"

Chen Fei was furious and shouted arrogantly.

In the chaotic battle at the Chen family's residence, Tang Ping didn't suffer any losses at all, and although Zhao Wei was injured, it wasn't serious.

On the contrary, all of Chen's brothers were injured, especially Chen Fei, whose face was bruised and swollen, and whose head had been stomped on by Tang Ping several times. He was still seeing stars.

The police officer in charge of the interrogation was also annoyed with Chen Fei, and shouted, "Chen Fei, you better behave! What do you think this place is? If you talk nonsense again, I'll handcuff you and put you in jail, you believe me?"

Chen Fei opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't dare to say anything more, only glaring fiercely at Tang Ping.

But a look can't kill.

Tang Ping continued speaking nonchalantly, shifting all the blame onto the Chen family and insisting that he had been blackmailed.

Since there are no security cameras in Chen Dafa's house, these kinds of things just end up with both sides blaming each other and eventually nothing comes of it.

Tang Ping and Zhao Wei were not released until midnight.

It was Chen Shuting who came to protect them!
