CHAPTER 437: CHAPTER 428: LIU FAMILY TAKES ACTION

So, in this situation, we cannot drag Huang Wenhai into it, otherwise, Lin will face the unfavorable scenario of Huang Wenhai joining forces with Liu’s Family. Now, Lin Mu plans to use his personal strength to kick Liu’s Real Estate Company out of the picture, and do so without Huang Wenhai noticing.

To kick Liu’s Company out of the picture, the first step is to rely on the community. If the community refuses to cooperate with relocation, Liu’s Company will inevitably deploy underground forces to respond. This is no longer surprising, but Lin Mu’s goal is to deliberately amplify the impact of this incident, letting the entire Wancheng, even the national media, know about it.

"Okay, starting from tomorrow, we’ll all stay at home and follow Boss Lin’s arrangements!" Hearing Lin Mu’s decision, the crowd sided with Lin Mu.

Seeing this result, Lin Mu was very satisfied. This is exactly the effect he wanted. In the current environment, the attention on the grassroots by the media and the authorities is increasing. If the interests of the people are severely damaged, in an era where information is swiftly spread by online media, once it is released, it will attract nationwide attention.

"I, Lin Mu, on behalf of Flying Dragon Group, thank all the elders and fellow townspeople. Rest assured, we will give everyone the benefits they deserve in the future!" Lin Mu said generously.

After Lin Mu finished speaking, Yang Dacheng and those grassroots officials led the applause. Under the leadership of the officials, the people below also clapped and cheered. Now they have unknowingly stood on the same front as Lin Mu!

After the Situong Town people’s meeting, Lin Mu and Su Jinzhi drove back to Wancheng. On the way, Su Jinzhi praised Lin Mu repeatedly, admiring Lin Mu’s performance very much. Unexpectedly, Lin Mu could find a way by enlisting the help of the Situong Town people to deal with Liu’s Real Estate Company after offending Huang Wenhai. Of course, currently using the collective power of Situong Town people to bid was also the only strategy left for Lin Mu and his team!

Su Jinzhi had to admit that the young people’s minds were more flexible than hers, so she praised, "Ah, Lin Mu, I didn’t expect you to come up with this good plan. You’ve given this old lady hope again!"

As a strong person from the battlefield, Lin Mu, whether on the battlefield or in the business field, had never suffered a loss. In front of him was such a huge fortune, he naturally couldn’t just watch it be taken by others. He had to find a way to get it in his hands first.

"Haha, Auntie, this is really nothing. We’ll have even bigger actions next!" Lin Mu smiled.

Indeed, this is merely the first link in Lin Mu’s entire chain plan, with bigger schemes to follow. Everything is under Lin Mu’s control!

"Even bigger actions? What kind of big actions?" Su Jinzhi looked at her future demon-like son-in-law curiously and asked.

"Ho ho, it’s a secret, I want to surprise everyone by then!" Lin Mu said mysteriously.

"Haha, playing surprises with Auntie, huh? Well, alright, Auntie will wait and see how big your actions really are!" Su Jinzhi said with a great deal of anticipation. Actually, today’s events were already surprising enough for Su Jinzhi. Lin Mu said this was just the first step, so wouldn’t the next actions be even bigger and more exciting? After thinking for a long time, Su Jinzhi still shook her head, unable to figure out what big move Lin Mu could make!

Two days later, Liu’s Real Estate Company began preparing for relocation, but when they tried to sign agreements from each household, the response was frustrating. Somehow, conditions previously agreed upon with the community suddenly took a 180-degree turn today, and no matter which house they entered, they were driven out by the community!

In the course of one morning, Liu’s Company failed to sign a single one of the 300 contracts they had prepared. Without signed agreements, they couldn’t proceed with demolishing houses, and if they took forceful actions, it would be considered illegal demolition, which was severely cracked down upon by Mr. Yu, the number one leader of the central government. So they were at a loss.

Liu’s Company’s public relations department quickly devised alternative plans, sending thugs to the community to threaten members, a common tactic employed by real estate companies. Some of the more timid community members couldn’t withstand the intimidation and were forced to sign demolition agreements.

Lin Mu quickly learned about this situation and correctly guessed that it was their usual tactic. By catching Liu’s Company in the act of intimidating the community, he could then find Qi Shangjing and Liu Yuanzhong to file a complaint. No matter how formidable Huang Wenhai was, he wouldn’t be able to protect Liu’s Company from legal consequences. Crime is like a raging fire, and protection is as thin as a sheet of paper, which cannot shield the fire forever. Sooner or later, the fire will turn the protector to ashes.

After Liu’s Company’s PR personnel reported the relocation situation of Situong Town to General Manager Liu Shengyi, he immediately ordered the use of underground forces to threaten and intimidate, determined to deal with those villagers in Situong Town.

Liu Shengyi had been in the real estate business for many years and faced non-cooperative relocation situations countless times. The usual solution had always been to use underground forces for intimidation, as there was no better method, and this was the most straightforward and effective one.

However, this time, Liu Shengyi encountered a demon-like opponent, and his decision became the magic weapon for Lin Mu’s counteraction and toppling of Liu’s Real Estate Company.

That night, Liu Shengyi gathered more than twenty flower-covered thugs at the company’s headquarters. These thugs were all gold medallists kept by Liu’s Company, accustomed to handling these matters with their extensive street experience, making it nearly impossible for average community members to withstand their intimidation.

Lin Mu, through Yang Dacheng, learned about Situong Town’s condition and also through deployed informants discovered Liu’s Real Estate Company’s intention to act against the community. Hence, Lin Mu contacted Qi Manlin and led a group of police officers to head towards Situong Town in a police car!

"Lin Mu, is your information reliable? Will Liu’s Company really send underground forces to intimidate the community of Situong Town?" On the way to Situong Town, Qi Manlin asked Lin Mu in confusion.

"Of course, don’t forget my informants are everywhere, and besides, Liu’s Real Estate Company is like a hungry dog; can a dog change its nature?" Lin Mu laughed.

"Tch, I think you can’t change your nature either!" Qi Manlin glared at Lin Mu and said.

"Damn, sis, why bring me into this?" Lin Mu asked, feeling a bit awkward.

"Hmph, you can come up with such a demonic plan, really makes one wonder what this sneaky brain of yours is thinking all day?" Qi Manlin snorted lightly.

"Ho ho! You don’t know what my brain is thinking?" Lin Mu grinned, reaching out to place his hand on Qi Manlin’s thigh.

Qi Manlin quickly brushed Lin Mu’s hand away, "Get your paw off; stop fooling around. If you keep this up, I’ll shoot you, sis is packing heat right now!"

"Damn, you’re ruthless!" Lin Mu reluctantly retracted his hand, "Why carry a gun around like a man?"

"What? Can men carry guns around?" Qi Manlin asked in confusion.

"Of course," Lin Mu gave a wicked smile pointing down at himself, "This is something every man carries with him, and it’s something you can’t get rid of even if you want to!"
