“Do you dig wells every year?”

It had been more than two years since Li Shijin’s family moved to the county town.

She thought that after more than two years, this problem would be resolved, but she did not expect it to be the same.

“I don’t even want to talk about it. Every year, we come to collect money to build wells, but we can’t pump out much water. Many crops have died of drought.”

“I don’t know what you’re thinking, but I don’t plan to pay this year.” A bald old man said.

“With this level of drilling, 1 might as well do it myself. Why don’t we pool some money and find a drilling team elsewhere to try? They’d definitely be better than those people.”

“I think it’ll work,” said the man with the hoe.

“We pay every year, and each time, it costs more than 300 yuan. If we give them money again this year, we’ll probably go bankrupt. It’s better to find someone else to do this.”

“Then let’s do it.”

The villagers spoke one after another, but Lin Yi and Li Shijin didn’t answer.

This was a matter for them to handle, and they couldn’t interfere. After all, they weren’t the ones who took the money.

“Uncle Wang, do you have some time later? I’d like to conduct a survey. Can you cooperate with me?” Li Si jin said with a friendly smile.

“Since you’ve said this, naturally we won’t object. Tell us what you need. We’ll cooperate with you.”

In the eyes of the villagers, Li Si jin was one of them, so they were very proactive.

“I have a few forms here. Just fill them out truthfully.”

“Okay, but I can’t read. Write them what 1 say for me.”

“That works too.”

Creak…

Just as Li Sijin was about to get to work, she saw a Jetta sedan stop in front of them, raising a thick cloud of dust.

Everyone was confused. They didn’t know who this car belonged to. It had been driving so fast after entering the village.

After the car stopped, four people got out. They were not old. One of them was in his forties, and the rest were younger; they looked to be in their early twenties.

“Yo, everybody’s here.”

Seeing that the villagers were gathered together, the middle-aged man leading the group said with a smile.

“Who are you?”

The villagers looked at him a few times and realized that they didn’t know him. He shouldn’t be from the village.

“Let me introduce myself first. My name is Liu Xilu. I’m from the county’s water plant. I’ll be in charge of digging the well this year,” Liu Xilu said.

“Everyone is familiar with this matter, so I won’t bore you with the details. However, there’s something 1 have to tell you again. This year, we’ve bought new equipment. They’re all imported. If we can dig deeper into the well, the effect will be better. However, the cost will be higher. The average arable land in the village is about the same, so 1 won’t charge you according to the land area. Every family will have to pay a fee of 480 yuan. Those with the money ready should come and pay now.”

Upon hearing that they were here to collect money for the well, the villagers’ expressions were not very good. They even looked a little hostile.

“That’s what you guys said last year when you dug the well. In the end, not much water was brought up,” the man with the hoe said.

“I heard about what happened last year,” Liu Xilu said with a smile. He was not angry at all.

“Those people were indeed not good. They took the money and didn’t do anything, so they were replaced this year. I’ll take over this matter completely, so don’t worry, everyone. I’ll definitely be able to handle this matter well and ensure that the village has enough water.”

“Forget it. That person said the same thing last year. Don’t lie to us.” The man carrying the hoe said,

“If there’s nothing else, leave quickly. We definitely won’t let you dig a well again this year. It’s the same story every year, yet there’s never any water.” “Didn’t 1 just say that the equipment has been changed this year? The well will definitely be okay.”

“Regardless, we don’t need it. We’re going to raise the money ourselves and find someone to dig a well in another area. You don’t have to stay here. Just go back.”

When he heard that the people from Kuanhe Village were going to find someone to dig a well outside, Liu Xilu’s expression changed and he said,

“You have to know that we’re from the county’s water plant. This is at the request of the officials. What you’re doing is illegal. If anything happens, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”

“Don’t try to fool us. We know the situation at the water plant. It has long been contracted out to individuals, and it has nothing to do with the government,” the man with the hoe impatiently waved his hand. “You better leave. We don’t need you to dig any wells this year.”

At this moment, Liu Xilu’s expression turned completely cold.

“Let me tell you, the county’s water plant has been contracted to Master Wu. You have to pay this money. This is a hard rule!”

‘Master Wu again?!’

Lin Yi muttered in his heart.

The people who stole the sand just now were in cahoots with that Master Wu.

Now, there was another group of people, and they were once again his people.

Was this guy so influential in Dongsan County?

Could he even get the water plant?

“I don’t care about any Master Wu or Master Pu. Anyway, we’re not planning to use you to dig wells this year. Just go back where you came from.”

Whack!

Liu Xilu slapped the man carrying the hoe.

The latter was caught off guard and was dumbfounded.

“What are you doing?! 1 didn’t let you dig the well, and you actually hit me. Is there any law?!”

Liu Xilu pointed at his nose and cursed,

“Let me tell you, in Dongsan County, Master Wu is the law. It’s useless no matter where you go to complain. I’m already letting you off easy by charging you 480 yuan this year. Even if it’s urine from the ground, you have to endure it!”

Faced with Liu Xilu’s harsh scolding, the people of Kuanhe Village did not choose to remain silent.

“You guys are too much. Are you bullying the people in our Kuanhe Village?!”

The man carrying the hoe called out, “Let’s move together. We definitely can’t let these people bully us!”

The people of Kuanhe Village were very united. With a shout, everyone moved. Regardless of whether they were men, women, old, or young, all of them glared at Liu Xilu angrily, looking like they would attack if there was a disagreement.

“You stinky old farmers actually want to fight us? Do you think we’re vegetarians?”

At this moment, the three people standing behind Liu Xilu took out three baseball bats from the car and stood in front of the villagers.

“I’m not afraid to tell you that in the morning, the people in Houjia Village were also unwilling to pay. After we beat them up, they all became obedient.” Liu Xilu said.

“1’11 say it again. If you don’t pay, I’ll strike you all down. Let’s see if the medical fees are more than the 480 yuan I’m demanding now.”

Even though Kuanhe Village had the numerical advantage, it was clear that the other party was a gang, and they were ready to attack, which instantly stifled their momentum.

They didn’t dare to make any rash moves and could only stare at them.

“You still don’t want to fucking pay, do you?” Liu Xilu scolded in exasperation.

“My time is limited. I still have to go to the next village to collect the money later. Don’t waste my time.”

“You guys shouldn’t go too far. Not everyone is like you!” Li Sijin said..
