"Village Chief Jin Hai, it's me, Lao He, from the docks. Why do I have to pay to enter your village with my car?"
Chen Jinhai sneered, thinking to himself, "I'm taking you in so you can find sales channels for Ye Cheng."
"Boss He, there's nothing I can do. This is a village regulation, not something I made on my own," Chen Jinhai said slowly and methodically.
He has now seized Ye Cheng's Achilles' heel, so he's not in a hurry.
"No, I came to Ye Cheng to buy clams. Why do I have to pay for this?" Boss He was speechless. I came to buy clams, and you're charging me?
"We're just following the rules. We don't care what people do, we just have to collect money when we pass by."
"No, this road is hundreds of years old, you can't just take it away as you please." Boss He's temper flared up, and he retorted defiantly, ready to start a fight.
He dared to be tough, and the Chen family dared to be even tougher.
Chen Jinfa shoved Boss He aside, pointed at him, and said sternly.
"What do you want? Let me tell you, this is Baiyun Village. If you come to our village, you have to follow our rules."
"You want to fight, huh? Come on then."
The Chen family members then rushed up and surrounded Boss He in an instant.
Seeing this, Boss He understood that things were not going to end well.
"Okay, you name your price, I'll pay the toll!"
Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. Old He has to admit defeat today, having run into this group of people. He'll get his revenge later.
"Ten thousand!" Chen Jinfa held up one finger.
"How much? Ten thousand? Why don't you just rob us?" Boss He simply couldn't believe it. Ten thousand.
I thought I would just pay a few dozen yuan, maybe a hundred at most, just a toll.
Now they're asking for 10,000 right off the bat? That's practically robbery!
"Hey, we don't rob you, we only charge a toll of ten thousand yuan. You can pass if you want, or not if you don't."
Chen Jinfa spread his hands and said to the others, "Come on, come on, make way for our Boss He, so we won't be accused of robbery."
Mr. He would never give him ten thousand yuan, so he could only take out his phone and call Ye Cheng.
"Ah, you've arrived."
"A toll? Ten thousand?"
"They must be obsessed with money. Okay, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Cheng greeted Ye Guowei, saying he was going to pick up the car, and then rode his motorcycle alone towards the road leading into the village.
When we arrived at the village entrance, we indeed saw the Chen family standing in the middle of the road, blocking a wooden post to prevent cars from passing.
hehe!
Ye Cheng suddenly twisted the accelerator!
The motorcycle sped up and rushed past.
Beep beep beep—
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Someone's been hit and killed!!!"
Seeing Ye Cheng yelling and rushing over, the Chen family members were so frightened that they hid behind a piece of wood. Ye Cheng took the opportunity to drive past them and stop next to Lao He.
"Second brother, what's going on in your village? They want 10,000 yuan for a toll? Isn't that robbery?" Boss He grabbed Ye Cheng and started complaining. He was so frustrated that he couldn't stand it.
"Boss He, don't worry, just wait a moment, it'll be approved soon, and you won't have to spend any money," Ye Cheng reassured him.
As he spoke, he took out two packs of cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to the driver.
Then he pulled Boss He aside and started chatting.
"Do you have a solution or not? Let me tell you, I've already made arrangements with them today. They've already secured the sales channels. If there's no stock, you'll have to pay compensation!" Boss He was already being very rude.
That's for sure; if the deal falls through, he'll lose money too.
If it were for other reasons, that would be one thing, but damn it, it's because of a toll fee.
Moreover, it's Ye Cheng's own village. If Ye Cheng is only this good, I won't cooperate with him again in the future.
Boss He was as anxious as an ant on a hot tin roof, but Ye Cheng remained calm and composed, pulling Boss He to sit down by the roadside.
"Oh, don't worry, it'll be taken care of right away."
"Then go and communicate with them. What kind of solution is it for you to sit here and smoke with me?" Boss He was speechless. How could he have encountered such an unreliable person? Did he expect the Chen family to back down on their own?
Ye Cheng smiled and said, "Boss He, you make it sound like I can succeed just by trying to communicate with them. You know the relationship between the Chen family and me."
"Then you have to figure something out!" Boss He shouted anxiously.
Over there, Chen Jinfa, who was blocking the road, was secretly delighted to see the two of them like this.
He turned around and gave Chen Jinhai an OK sign.
We must win today!
Our Chen family will also have some meat today.
Chen Jinhai sat in the back, completely unperturbed.
Ye Cheng.
Let you fight me.
If you're not convinced, then bring your people and come fight me.
We are a clan, and your men are all hired; how many of them actually know how to fight?
Therefore, my Chen family is still guaranteed to win.
...
Ye Cheng fell silent. Boss He's words were useless, so he could only sit down and sulk.
Ye Chengyan had smoked two cigarettes in five minutes, but he was still taking his time.
Boss He couldn't hold back any longer.
"How long are you going to wait? It takes time to load the truck, no matter how late it is."
Ye Cheng took out his phone and checked the time; it should be about time.
He looked up at the other side of the road, his face lit up with joy, and he patted his bottom as he stood up.
"Alright, the savior has arrived."
"What savior has arrived?" Boss He looked over in bewilderment, following Ye Cheng's gaze.
Then another car drove up the road and headed towards Baiyun Village.
Is this the savior Ye Cheng was talking about?
Boss He followed Ye Cheng with some skepticism.
Ye Cheng was already waving from the roadside. The car soon pulled up in front of Ye Cheng, the door opened, and a person got out.
"Deputy Township Head Li, I've finally been waiting for you!" Ye Cheng stepped forward warmly to shake hands.
The person who came was none other than Deputy Township Head Li, the great master that Ye Cheng had invited from the township yesterday.
Upon seeing that it was Li, the deputy township head, Mr. He quickly came over and shook hands with him.
"Boss, this is Mr. He, also from our Shiling Township. It was Mr. He who helped me find the sales channels this time. What a good comrade!" Ye Cheng praised him highly.
Upon hearing that he had come to buy clams, Deputy Township Head Li proactively extended his hand to shake hands with Boss He, his face all smiles.
"Our township needs talents like you to help revitalize the local economy."
Although a deputy township head isn't exactly a high-ranking official, Mr. He was still somewhat flattered that someone would speak to him like that.
"Boss, this is what we should do."
After exchanging pleasantries, Deputy Township Head Li pointed to the truck ahead and asked with a puzzled expression,
"Are you waiting for me to enter the village together?"
Before Ye Cheng could speak, Boss He spoke first.
"No, boss, I'm here to collect clams, haha."
Damn it, that bastard Chen Jinhai found out and actually hired people to block the road, saying he wanted to collect a toll.
