Chapter 123 It's All Zhong Jianshe's Fault!
The cursing sound could be heard. Those were loud, angry and malicious words.
At this moment, these villagers perfectly interpret the word 'unruly people'.
Even though the cops themselves gone dumbfounded on this situation, they managed to get a view on the whole story.
Nevertheless, this wasn't Zhong Jianshe's fault at all... Just like the Chinese proverb, 'Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai, one is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer'. If they refuse to sell it, no one can buy it from them.
Besides, as for the estate in the Jingzhong Village; if it weren't the government wants to extend the subway there, nor the Hengda Group wants to develop it- not to mention 1 million dollars, nobody would want to purchase it even if it's half a million dollars!
Noticing that the area was going to be developed and the land price was going to rise, they pointed their fingers to Zhong Jianshe, vented their anger on him, blaming him that he'd helped the other party to cheat them.
Did any of these make sense?
Besides, if Zhong Jianshe was actually bribed by the other party, and kept the money all by himself, wouldn't he hide himself after receiving it in the first place? How could they locate him?
"Everyone, I didn't conspire with the other party! I really didn't! From the beginning till the end, never once did I lie to you. I was just bragging and boasting about myself! On that day, I was sitting at the entrance of the village. Then, the man suddenly approach me and asked about the land in Jinzhong Village. He was asking if there's any land for sale, and I agreed to sell mine. But the other party said that he wanted to buy a large amount of land, mentioning that he wanted to build a large factory here. If it weren't selling a large amount of land, he wouldn't buy it..."
"Only then, I went to you guys and asked whether you want to sell it or not. You all happily agreed to sell it in the first place, and kept urging me to implement this matter every day, reminding me to let the other party collect it! When the boss dragged on for a few days, and you all were in a hurry, worrying that he would stand you up! Did you all forgotten?"
"To be frank, with your conscientious, can you blame me for this matter? Was it solely my fault? Yes, each of you gave me 3 thousand dollars as a thank you fee, and now I will return them to you. I don't want it anymore, okay?" While trembling hardly with his knees kept knocking together, Zhong Jianshe was so anxious that he was about to break into tears.
He felt so wronged!
"Returning us 3 thousand dollars?! You fucking think that this matter could be resolved in merely 3 thousand dollars?!"
"Zhong Jianshe, didn't you say you didn't conspire with the other party? Fine, then go and help us get our land back! As long as you help us get our houses and land back, we wouldn't blame you anymore, and will remember your great kindness!"
"In short, if it weren't you Zhong Jianshe, we wouldn't have sold the houses and land! No matter what, there's only 2 choices for you to choose! Either giving our houses and land back, or ask the other party to add on another 4 million dollars to us! The rest was nonsense!"
The villagers didn't accept his explanation at all. In fact, they were still fuming with anger.
This situation had truly portrayed the true nature of humans.
1 million dollars versus 18 million dollars- These 2 figures were good enough to make these villagers ignoring what was right or wrong.
Anyway, in a word, it's all Zhong Jianshe's fault!
"Can you all make some sense? You sold the land and your house all on your own, did Zhong Jianshe forced you? What are you blaming him for? Just because he asked you if you want to sell it? Does it make sense? The person who bought your house and land has gone through the official procedures and paid enough money to you, in black and white. This is like 'Zhou Yu beat Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer'. If you guys refuse to sell it in the first place, how can the other party buy it from you? Do you think you're allowed to mess around under the law?!"
"You all wanted Zhong Jianshe to help you get the house and land back. Ask yourself, is this even possible? Taking a few steps back, if it were you, can you return those houses and land at the original their original price?"
"In other words, whether you're looking for Zhong Jianshe, or the person who purchased your house and land, was not only unreasonable, but it's also an excuse for ignoring the law! If you really want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself!" The leader of policemen couldn't stand it and said coldly.
Afterwards, another policeman added on. "This is like this house built by Zhong Jianshe. For example, if he sells this house tomorrow; a few days later, the house price increases. Can he ask the other party to pay back the price difference? Can the other party pay the price difference to him? Villagers, you have to be reasonable!"
"Besides, this is all thanks to the government wanted to connect the subway to the outer suburbs and also the Hengda Group who planned to develop here. so that the value of Jinzhong Village will only increase. Presumably at that time, when the other party used the price of 1 million dollars to buy from you, you weren't only happy, but also thought that the other party was a fool to spend such a large sum of money on purchasing the land, don't you?"
The policeman's words silenced the villagers.
It was as what he said. Indeed, they all thought the other was a fool with lots of money. Nonetheless, who would have known that the land price in Jinzhong Village would fluctuate in just a few days?!
"Sir, it hasn't been half a month since we sold off our houses and land! Who can stand it?!" the leader of the villagers yelled.
"Even if you can't accept it, you still need to accept it! This can only mean you're unlucky! The rest can't be blamed on anyone else! All right, return to your home at instant! Don't make trouble here, let alone disturbing other residents of the community!" The policeman ordered.
"What?! Are you helping Zhong Jianshe? You're speaking out for that black-hearted bastard who sold off our houses and land?" A young man from Jinzhong Village shouted.
"Are you messing with us? We don't even know who purchase your house and land. How could we speak up to him? We're teaching you morality!" The policeman yelled angrily.
"I'm warning you, leave here at instant! If you want to continue to harass the residents, don't blame us for bringing you all back to the police station!"
Getting scolded by the policeman, the villagers in Jinzhong Village also stopped making ruckus.
The representative of the Jinzhong Village fell into his deep thought. After a short while, he asked the police, "Sir, so do you mean we need to accept all of this?"
"I don't care whether you accept it or not. If you refuse to, it's your own business. However, our duty is to maintain the peace in the community, and you're disturbing the peace of other people by making riots here. We will never allow it to happen!" The head of the policemen exclaimed.
The representative of Jinzhong Village gritted his teeth. Then, he ordered, "Everyone, return home first. Er Shu, San Shu, Qi Ye, Liu Ge, Wan Zi, Xiao Shuai, and Lao Wu; you guys stay here. Let's have a good chat with Zhong Jianshe!"
After that, he asked the police, "Sir, I'll let them return. Some of us will stay here to talk with Zhong Jianshe. Is this okay?"
"As long as Zhong Jianshe agrees, then no problem!" The police ansewered.
"Jianshe, can we have a talk?" asked the representative of Jinzhong Village.
His brows knotted in hesitation, but Zhong Jianshe ended up nodding his head.
He won't be at peace if this matter wasn't resolved.
"Sir, he agreed!" The representative of Jinzhong Village said.
The policeman did not say anything more. They looked at Zhong Jianshe, "Call the police if anything happens. The police station is just a few hundred meters away!"
This sentence was not only said to Zhong Jianshe but also to those unruly and unreasonable villagers.
Then, he shot a glare towards the villagers in Jinzhong Village and commanded, "Leave here immediately! If someone calls the police and says that you're disturbing the residents, all of you will be sent to the police station!"
Under the command of the police, and the instructions of the representative of Jinzhong Village, those villagers left hurriedly.
As soon as the policemen and villagers left, only then did the villager representative showed his true nature to Zhong Jianshe.
"Jianshe, since the situation has become like this, let's not talk about anything else. Just contact the person who bought our houses and land now, at instant! Turn on the phone speaker and call him now!" The representative of Jinzhong Village ordered.
Sigh-
Letting out a long sigh, Zhong Jian has no choice.
He could only nodded in response, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Ye Chen's phone number.
