Grandpa Liao slammed his hand on the table, startling Chen Rui, who was keeping accounts nearby.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Chen." Grandpa Liao smiled gently at Chen Rui, who quickly waved his hand.
"Who dares to call you a dictator? Who can say you're a dictator? Without you, how many of these people would survive? Have they all lost their conscience? Stand up! We, the old folks who have followed you, are absolutely on your side! Look outside!"
Fang Zhiyi approached the window and looked out. There were quite a few people standing downstairs, and they all raised their hands to greet him.
Chen Rui also came closer, his face showing some emotion: "These are all survivors we picked up back then... ugh, those who followed us..."
"Just say the word!" Grandpa Liao exclaimed, his face flushed with excitement. "If you can't handle it, we will!"
Fang Zhiyi quickly shook his head: "No, no, no, if you go, won't that cause division?" He knew that if these people were mobilized, there would definitely be conflict, and things would escalate into a large-scale conflict.
"Don't worry, Uncle Liao, you can let them go back first. I have my own plans for this."
Grandpa Liao looked at Fang Zhiyi's face, but saw no emotion. After a moment, he said, "Okay, if you ever need us, just let us know. We'll always support you."
Thank you.
Watching those people leave, Fang Zhiyi's face darkened: "Notify Zhao Hu to cut those damned bastards' rations in half again!"
Chen Rui nodded meaningfully, then pushed open the door and left.
The moment he pushed open the door, he saw a girl he had rescued from the bandits' hideout standing angrily at the door. Chen Rui knew that she was another one who had come to complain.
"Leave this headache to Fang Zhiyi," he nodded quickly, then hurriedly ran toward Zhao Hu's office area.
Wang Qian had become extremely arrogant. For several days, she hadn't seen Fang Zhiyi and his associates show up, and the so-called victims hadn't stood up to oppose her either. She felt it was time. Looking at her supporters around her, she shouted her slogan: "Fang Zhiyi step down! We want democracy! We want autonomy!"
She now has enough supporters, and they believe the promises she makes. Now she's going to lead them directly to Fang Zhiyi's office building, which is actually just a two-story stilted building designed by Fang Zhiyi herself.
Fang Zhiyi likes to hide, so she'll force him to come out and face the situation! She wants him to know that this base doesn't belong to him alone! If he knows what's good for him, it would be best if he handed over the leadership position to her.
As they ventured deeper, a guard appeared on the street, but when they saw the group, they simply stood to the side, which inflated their egos to the extreme.
Even the guards didn't dare to stop them!
As they approached Fang Zhiyi's location, they encountered some people dressed in tattered clothes.
Wang Qian recognized them at a glance; these were the criminals being forced into hard labor by the guards.
She watched the criminals approach, her face beaming with joy: "It's so good to see you! It's me! We fight for your rights every day! Together we resist that tyrant's rule!"
She turned to her supporters and shouted, "See that! They're scared! They've released these criminals! This is our victory!"
But only a handful of people responded to her.
"It's this bitch! She's making it so we're almost out of food!"
"We used to only work ten hours a day, but because of their commotion, we have to work fourteen hours a day!"
"Holy shit! Kill her!"
