These days, garbage trucks have been working non-stop on the land they bought, and have already cleared most of the site.
Because Lin Chen had instructed the drivers that they could only work during the day and take a break at noon so as not to disturb the neighbors, he felt at ease and did not keep an eye on them every day.
I didn't expect to get into trouble again.
"I'll go with you to take a look," Lin Chen said to the person who had tipped him off.
Jiang Ning quickly stood up as well, "I'll go with you to take a look."
Gao Baoliang and Gu Hu also put down their chopsticks; they wanted to go and see as well.
The other party is clearly looking for trouble; having more people means having more strength.
Jiang Ning told Wang Xiufen to put the children to bed after dinner, and to close the door tightly so that no one could open it.
"Okay, be careful. Try not to resort to violence if you can avoid it," she warned them, sensing the tense atmosphere.
Lin Chen nodded: "Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Several men rode two motorcycles to the land and saw a group of thugs surrounding a truck, beating and smashing it. The young man in the driver's seat was so scared that his face turned pale and he didn't dare to get off the truck.
Not far from the car, a person was lying on the ground with blood flowing from their head, looking horrific, clutching their stomach and groaning.
"stop!"
Lin Chen rushed over and stood in front of the truck.
"Have you no laws at all? You beat someone up like this for no reason?"
The crowd stopped what they were doing and looked at him with a sleazy air.
The crowd parted to make way, and the bald man walked over with a smile.
"You've come at the right time. You hired this garbage truck, didn't you? They ran over my dog and won't pay compensation, so you'd better pay!"
Lin Chen frowned and followed their gaze to see a blood-soaked duck lying under the truck.
It turns out that just now, when a garbage truck was turning into the road, a duck suddenly crawled under the truck. He quickly braked, but still ran over the duck and killed it.
The other party claimed that the duck was a superior breed, bought from Guangzhou for 1,000 yuan, and demanded that they pay 1,000 yuan in compensation.
The young man in the passenger seat argued with them and was severely beaten.
The driver was so frightened that he didn't dare get out of the car.
“It’s true that they were wrong to crush the duck to death, but it’s also wrong of you to injure people. Besides, it’s just a duck, you don’t have to pay a thousand yuan in compensation.” Lin Chen tried to reason with them.
The bald man suddenly changed his expression, "What? Isn't a duck a life too? I've raised it like my own son. Let me tell you, if you don't pay me back today, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Standing behind, Gao Baoliang clenched his fists and spoke angrily:
"Baldy, you're really persistent. You tried to ruin our business a while ago, and now you're deliberately causing trouble again. You're charging us a thousand yuan for just one duck? Are you trying to use that money to buy your own coffin?!"
Upon hearing this, the bald man's face contorted in pain, like a round glutinous rice ball that had fallen to the ground and gotten dirty.
He gave a look to the people behind him, and they were eager to fight Lin Chen and his group.
Last time at the ice rink, there were managers there, and we still couldn't decide a winner. This time, I'm determined to beat them into submission.
Lin Chen told Jiang Ning to stand a little further back and got into position.
He was a Sanda champion in the army and was never afraid of fighting.
"Since you want to fight, then it's settled. If you lose, you'll have to pay for that brother's medical expenses, and you'll never be allowed to set foot on my territory again," Lin Chen warned the bald man.
The bald man chuckled, "I, the bald man, have never lost a fight. You'd better get someone to raise the money quickly!"
As he spoke, he swung his fist at Lin Chen when Lin Chen was completely unprepared.
Fortunately, Lin Chen reacted quickly, dodging his punch and kicking him hard in the stomach.
That kick caused him to stumble and fall heavily to the ground.
His underlings, seeing their boss being beaten, all rushed towards Lin Chen.
Gao Baoliang and Gu Hu immediately joined the battle.
Soon, the two sides were locked in a fierce battle.
The thugs who followed the bald man were all selected through countless fights and brawls; they were all burly men.
However, Lin Chen and his group were stronger. They took on three opponents at once, knocking them to the ground one by one, and finally pressed the stick against the bald man's chest.
"So? Do you submit?" Lin Chen sneered.
The bald man trembled slightly, still trying to argue: "The duck was indeed run over by the car, so let's just cancel the medical expenses!"
Anyway, they won't lose money, and they probably won't dare to do anything to them.
At this moment, Gu Hu, who had been fighting silently, spoke up.
"Bald guy, take a good look at me. Do you still recognize me?"
The bald man didn't take him seriously at first, but now he's really looking him over.
Upon seeing this, he immediately felt his legs go weak and needed to hold onto someone to keep his balance.
"You came out from inside?" the bald man asked timidly.
He witnessed Gu Hu kill someone with his own eyes. He was only about ten years old at the time, and he was following the group of thugs when he watched Gu Hu slash the leader of the thugs twenty times with a knife.
At that time, both the thug and he were covered in blood, a scene that haunted him for the rest of his life.
"Good that you recognized me. If you hadn't still had your bald head, I almost wouldn't have recognized you. Let me tell you, Lin Chen and Gao Baoliang are my brothers. If you cause them any more trouble, it's the same as causing trouble for me..."
Gu Hu issued a warning.
Before he could finish speaking, the bald man hurriedly declared, "Brother Tiger, whatever you say goes. I will never cause them any more trouble in the future."
As he spoke, he took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and gave it to him so that he could pay for the medical treatment of the injured person.
"roll!"
Seeing that they were somewhat sensible, Lin Chen told them to leave quickly, since it was a group fight and they would be questioned if the police came.
That scoundrel didn't care; he had nothing to do and wasn't afraid of wasting time, but their wasted time would result in significant losses.
Watching the bald man and his gang flee in disarray, Gao Baoliang patted Gu Hu on the shoulder and thanked him, "It seems that leaving you behind was the right decision."
Lin Chen gave the two hundred yuan to the driver and told them to go back and take good care of their injuries and rest for two days.
When he turned around, he found that Jiang Ning was no longer there.
"Ningning~" he called out in fright.
Jiang Ning walked gracefully over from a short distance away, carrying several bottles of soda in her hand.
"I bet you guys will be thirsty after the fight."
She handed them the soft drinks.
The driver got out of the car, helped his injured companion into the vehicle, and opened the door.
Lin Chen looked at the pool of blood on the ground and asked in confusion:
"Where's the duck?"
He clearly saw the duck lying there almost crushed into a pulp!
"Maybe Baldy and his gang picked it up," Jiang Ning said, touching his nose.
She didn't pick up the duck; she put it in a plastic bag after entering the space and placed it in the backpack that the bald man had hung on his bicycle.
Within half a day, a foul stench would permeate the room.
