While the planning and design of the first commercial real estate center was in full swing, Yuan Fangguo's road hardening project also began construction.
Li Chengming and his team conducted an assessment of the project, which is that there will be at least 30-40% profit after completion, which is quite good for a project worth about 15 million.
However, on the second day after entering the market, Li Chengming and his team encountered a difficult problem.
It was the same old extortion scheme, but this time it was a local thug.
This guy went straight to Li Chengming and explained his purpose, which was to pay protection money. If he didn't pay...
As for the consequences of not paying, this guy really didn't say anything, but looking at his malicious look, he was definitely not joking. Moreover, this guy also had a request, which was to only accept cash and not transfers.
Nowadays, everyone who works on a project has some ruthless people under their command, and Hongda Construction Company is no exception. As soon as they saw the local tyrant starting to make trouble the next day after they came in, dozens of young and strong men surrounded this guy.
They haven't even left the Jiangliu District yet, and someone dares to ask them for protection money. They simply don't want to live anymore.
This guy didn't seem to be intimidated by the dozens of strong young men. "Hehe, we are all adults. Don't try to scare us with this. I'll give you two days to think about it. I must have an answer before noon tomorrow."
After saying this, the guy calmly pushed away the strongest guy and walked out without any hurry.
Li Chengming soon learned about this and was quite surprised that these guys dared to ask them for protection money while still in the same city district.
However, since Jiangliu District is quite large and is located in a mountainous area, the people there are usually tough and there might be some stupid people there.
After listening to this, Li Chengming couldn't help but smile slightly. "Let them come as they please. If they dare to make a move, I will definitely make sure they don't get away with it."
Thinking that the boss's network of relationships is getting bigger and bigger, his subordinates naturally have gained confidence. Therefore, Li Chengming analyzed it carefully just now and concluded that this group of people should be fools with a "short circuit" in their brains.
At noon the next day, the same guy came to the meeting alone.
But this time he was stopped by the company's security personnel at the door.
"No entry."
"I'm looking for your person in charge." The guy said with a blink of his eyes.
"We in charge won't see you. You don't have the qualifications." The security guard was also a retired soldier, a tall man of 1.9 meters, with a face full of flesh.
"I made an appointment with him yesterday."
"Who are you?" The security guard knew this guy, so he spoke to him very rudely.
"I'm from around here."
"I'm telling you, our boss isn't seeing you, and you don't have the qualifications. Get out of here right now," the security guard shouted.
"I understand. Goodbye." The guy smiled slightly and turned to leave.
After his back disappeared from the security guard's sight, the security guard quickly notified Li Chengming, Guo Zhuang and others.
"The person has left?"
"right."
"Notify the brothers to be on high alert," Li Chengming said. "If anyone comes to cause trouble, show no mercy."
"I understand." The security guard nodded.
Soon, all the employees received the news, and they were all very excited, wondering what tricks these guys were going to play this time.
However, this time it seemed a little beyond their expectations, and no one came to make trouble at all.
There wasn't even any at night, and it was like this for the next few days.
This gradually relaxed the vigilance of Li Chengming and the others. In their opinion, this group of people were probably just trying to scare them, and they didn't have any other real abilities.
Just when their vigilance began to drop, something happened on the construction site.
After breakfast, the workers went to the construction site to prepare for construction. Unexpectedly, they found that there were footprints on the cement that had been laid yesterday.
When the manager saw that something was wrong, he quickly reported it to Guo Zhuang.
Guo Zhuang immediately brought people over and after a closer look, he concluded that these footprints were not from adults.
"It looks like a child of thirteen or fourteen years old." Guo Zhuang said.
"Manager Guo, will they do this to us?" a worker couldn't help but ask.
Guo Zhuang smiled and said, "If they use this method, it would be too low-level. Let's pay attention tonight. After work, we can hide and see if it's just some kids who did it."
Guo Zhuang's method was simple and practical. At around nine o'clock that evening, he indeed caught three children around ten years old.
When they were caught, they were jumping and jumping on the cement floor which had not yet solidified. The ground was covered with footprints. There was no way to repair the damage caused by this, so they had to knock it down and re-concrete it.
"Send them to the Public Security Bureau." Guo Zhuang said bluntly.
I originally thought that they would be dealt with properly after being sent to the Public Security Bureau, but these little brats were sent there at night and released before the early morning.
The reason is simple, that is, they are under the age of fourteen and can only be criticized for education.
After Guo Zhuang and the others heard the news, they couldn't help but feel angry and annoyed. "Damn, if I had known earlier, I should have locked them up."
The disgusting thing was yet to come. One morning when they went to the construction site, they found that someone had dumped several large piles of smelly and disgusting feces there.
This time they didn't even catch them in the act.
Not only that, two dogs on the construction site also died inexplicably, and several bamboo pit vipers also slipped into the construction site from somewhere, and directly passed through the circles of realgar powder in the project department.
Logically speaking, snakes are afraid of realgar, but he was surprised that it could fly in directly.
After being surprised, I finally understood what was going on.
Guo Zhuang felt that he had no ability to solve the problem, so he could only tell Li Chengming about the situation.
As Li Chengming got busy, he forgot about the threats from the local bullies.
After listening to Guo Zhuang's report, he couldn't help but slam his fist on the desk, which scared Guo Zhuang.
"Mr. Li, what should we do?" Guo Zhuang asked in a panic.
"Fight them." Li Chengming said with gritted teeth.
"How do I deal with it?" Guo Zhuang still didn't know the specific method.
"Give someone a taste of their own medicine." Li Chengming said with a determined look on his face.
This time Guo Zhuang was even more confused, but seeing Li Chengming's confident look, he stopped asking questions. If he asked too many questions, it would seem that his level was low.
