At the age of five, a fortune teller said that I would be able to see through other people's thoughts when I grow up.
My parents thought I was a genius and devoted the whole family's ...
Chapter 258 How to subdue Er Mengzi?
Lao Jin said, "Xiao Ming was away on a business trip for ten days. When he came back, he was as happy as a newlywed. Then the downstairs neighbor knocked on the door. Xiao Ming opened the door and asked what was going on.
The neighbor was furious and said, "I tolerated it for a day or two, but it's been like this every night for ten days. Do you think I should go to sleep?"
Everyone laughed.
Mayor Tian said, "Drink it all in one gulp, and then watch Master Wan perform some tricks."
While speaking, he stared at Qingruo, but to his surprise, Qingruo remained calm and showed him the bottom of the bottle after she finished drinking.
Mayor Tian said sarcastically, "Not bad. It seems like you really want to discuss work with me this time, and your attitude is very sincere."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank.
Lao Jin said, "Master, it's up to you."
I smiled and said, "Let's talk after we finish eating."
As a result, everyone worked hard to eat, and soon everyone said they were full.
I told them my request, and Xiao Wu went to get paper and pen. Everyone went to write it down, and then handed it to me. For the 1,000 yuan bonus, they kept a close eye on me.
I stood up, grabbed two folded pieces of paper, put one to my ear with my right hand, and opened the other with my left hand under the cover of the table.
He retracted his right hand, swapped it with his left, and threw the one he had looked at onto the table: "I love you. Whose is it?"
Xiao Wu came out to admit his mistake. He opened it, and everyone was astonished. The paper ball in my left hand folded again, and I grabbed a piece with my right hand and listened. "It's fake! Who wrote it?"
A young man admitted it, and everyone rushed to look at the words.
This went on and on. I listened to it all. Even Qing Ruo, who was sitting next to me, didn't realize there was any trick.
Mayor Tian said, "You can't tell by listening, but you're so quick. I admire you. I admire you."
Some people say that Liu Qian's magic can be seen clearly under a high-power camera.
Mayor Tian said, "What's the point? Why do women wear bikinis? It's because imagination is far more attractive than reality."
Everyone looked at Qing Ruo and laughed wildly.
Qing Ruo said, "As expected of a Chinese language graduate, the mayor must have a very rich imagination."
Everyone chuckled. The waiter came in and cleared the table.
Mayor Tian said, "Open a clean room and make tea."
After a while, the waiter came to Mayor Tian and leaned over to whisper something in his ear. Mayor Tian stood up and everyone followed him to the next room.
Everyone sat down. Mayor Tian said, "Let's discuss this. Previously, Xuri only signed a letter of intent with us. Now that we're ready to sign the formal contract, something strange has happened again. One wants to grow vegetables, and the other wants to take on the project. Xiaowu, tell us first, you're from Bainiao Lake."
Xiao Wu cleared his throat and said, "Speaking of many people, the key is actually one person, his name is Er Mengzi.
He's been to the palace, been to jail, and claims to have the Plum Blossom Palm. He's made some money over the years, and has become even more rampant. People in the nearby villages are afraid of him.
Mayor Tian said, "I've heard of him. I've only been transferred to Dongli for a short time, and I haven't met him yet. Why should others be afraid of him?"
"First, he's rude and unreasonable, hitting people at the drop of a hat. Second, he has this Plum Blossom Palm attack. I heard several people died from it."
Mayor Tian stared at me.
I said, "Whether it's the Plum Blossom Palm or the Gu, it's all fake. To kill someone, it must be poison, or what we call the power of medicine. If he really was the one who poisoned them, he deserves the death penalty.
My guess is that he deliberately spread rumors among the elderly, the infirm, and those who are already seriously ill, so that if one out of ten people dies, others will be afraid of him."
Xiao Wu nodded: "It should be the situation you described, because if anyone offends him, he will say, 'I'll give you a plum blossom palm.'"
Mayor Tian said, "Go on."
Xiao Wu took a sip of tea and said, "Others are afraid of him, but he's loyal. His last name is Wei, and many villages near Bainiao Lake have the same surname. So he has a lot of supporters."
He often gave small favors to others, and some villagers, who were short-sighted, were encouraged by him to go to the island to grow vegetables.
Mayor Tian said, "I'll go meet him."
Xiao Wu stood up hurriedly, waved his hands and said, "He has a Tibetan Mastiff at home, and it's very ferocious. If we need to find him, we can only stand outside the yard and shout.
He would come out when he was happy, but ignore us when he was unhappy. In those villages, some work couldn't be carried out because he was the one who was hindering it."
Mayor Tian asked, "Is that all?"
Xiao Wu said, "The key is that he doesn't break the law, so you can't do anything to him. He looks big and strong, but he's actually very cunning, always hiding behind the scenes and directing others."
"Who in the town has a good relationship with him?" Mayor Tian looked at everyone.
No one spoke. Xiao Wu moved his mouth, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
I said, "Xiao Wu, speak boldly. We must explain this matter thoroughly before we can get started."
Xiao Wu said, "Mayor, you're new here, and I'm going to tell you the truth. He looks down on the people in this town."
Mayor Tian looked embarrassed when he heard this.
There was a moment of silence, and Qing Ruo's face changed color.
Mayor Tian slammed his hand on the table and said, "The development of Dongli Town cannot be stopped because of one or two village tyrants. Sign the contract, start construction on the island, and anyone who interferes will be arrested."
The whole audience was silent, no one responded.
I stood up in a snap and said, "Mayor, I'll go with you to meet him!"
It was like a loud thunderclap, and everyone looked at me.
Xiao Wu said, "Teacher Wan, he won't give you face, and you haven't caught him obstructing the project."
Xiao Wu's words were actually meant for the mayor to hear.
Mayor Tian's face flushed crimson. He put his hand down and said, "Teacher Wan, please sit down first. It's too early to go now. The main thing is that you haven't stopped the work. Besides, you're a boss, and if he doesn't let you in, you'll be in a dilemma."
I knew the mayor was starting to back down. He smiled and said, "Mayor, first of all, we're not going there to cause trouble, we're going to have a drink with him. Build a relationship. If we can truly turn an enemy into a friend, won't future work be much easier?"
Secondly, if he doesn't come out, let's go in and make that Tibetan Mastiff, Wan Shanhong, kneel down. "First, kneel down before your Lord Mayor."
Mayor Tian looked at me in surprise.
I asked, "Where are the dogs in town? Some are particularly vicious."
Lao Jin said, "I have two at home."
"Let's go. Watch me subdue the dog first, then I'll subdue the people. Lao Jin, when we get to your house, don't get out of the car. If you get out, it will be obedient."
Everyone was also interested. They stood up and walked downstairs. They each got into their own car, with Lao Jin leading the way, heading south.
Qing Ruo sighed, "It's so nice to be a key account manager. You get to deal with civilized people and civilized things."
Hearing her sigh, I couldn't help but shudder. I was the one who recommended her to this company, and I really didn't expect the reality to be so complicated.
So, I said with great pride: "Qing Ruo, I will take care of your affairs. I will help you. Even if there is a bottomless abyss ahead, I will not let you jump. If you want to jump, I, Wan Shanhong, will jump."
Her nose felt sore, she sniffed and said, "Thank you."
It took ten minutes to reach Lao Jin's house. As soon as the car stopped on the ground, two big dogs, half a person's height, rushed out from under the eaves and barked at the car.
No one dared to get off the car unless Lao Jin got off.
I opened the car door and walked towards them without fear.
They felt offended and rushed towards me head-on, with all four legs raised and their bloody mouths opened wide.
Just when their front paws were about to reach my shoulders, I shouted: Kneel down!
The two dogs fell from mid-air, rolled over a few times on the ground, and lay on the ground like two obedient cats, unable to move.
Three or four car doors opened at the same time, and warm applause broke out on the ground.
Mayor Tian said, "Since the master has such great skills, our group will gather at Bainiao Lake tomorrow."
