Chapter 57 Courtyard Turmoil, The Monkey Becomes King



Ying Liu took out the land deed Jing Le had given him, showed it to everyone, and then said:

"Can someone tell me where the manager of this villa went?"

“Sir, I’d like to say that I, Xu Dazhuang, am from the neighboring Xu Family Village.”

There were a dozen or so people down there, all villagers from the surrounding area, who had signed long-term contracts with a group of workers.

The speaker was a middle-aged man in his forties, very thin, but with a very upright gaze.

"The previous manager was named Xu Dahai, and he died a month ago. The current manager is named Xu Daqiang, and he is Xu Dahai's younger brother..."

Xu Dahai was originally an upright and honest person who treated everyone with courtesy.

However, the deaths of Xu Dahai and his wife seem too abrupt. Xu Daqiang and his mother arrived, and the couple died not long after. Who would believe there wasn't something fishy going on?

Jing Le looked thoughtful.

The Third Prince and Duan Feibai agreed with Jing Le's statement; it was all too much of a coincidence.

Anything that seems too coincidental must have been deliberately orchestrated.

Just then, a rude and sarcastic shout came from the gate.
