Han Lin was the strong man who broke off an engagent in the past, and later joined the company. His family owned a farm in the old Developnt Zone, and they were not short on clout either.
"No need."
Tao Yu directly stretched out his hand to press the switch by his side, unlocked the compartnt, and didn’t wait for Panda; he straight up got up and walked over there.
Since it was confird that all five were Inner City Pioneers from the new Developnt Zone, there was nothing to worry about.
If there was soone Panda didn’t recognize, Tao Yu would have taken another look, but since they were all known, he could let loose a bit...
"Haha, let’s drink up everyone. I don’t think Panda and his group will last much longer. It’s impossible for them to keep all three plots of land; they don’t have the energy to keep it up."
"Right, listening to his tone last ti, it seems they’re ready to talk."
"We want the one next to the reservoir; it’s good for farming and breeding, and if there are aquatic products, we can handle that too."
"Do we also need to collaborate with the ’water snakes’?"
"..."
As they groped around with both hands, causing the won sitting beside them to giggle incessantly, they were also quite unabashed about starting to chat casually.
After all, it was an open secret; although they were a step late in entering the scene, the strength they gathered was not weaker than that of Dada Company.
As the proactive side, they had no fear of discussing things openly, unafraid of leaks.
In any case, you have to rip one of the three pieces of land away; it’s just a matter of which one you’re willing to give up.
Have you already signed an agreent?
Doesn’t matter. Can you ensure that you can successfully harvest from all three plots of land?
Can you protect all three plots well?
Not afraid of sothing happening one night? Not afraid of a fire? Not afraid of poison in the feed?
That’s impossible to imagine.
It’s better to divide one out and then focus on defending the remaining two!
The pioneers have the advantage of being first, but during the pioneering period, when the benefits haven’t started snowballing and both sides still have the support of their current families, the challengers actually have no pressure.
But at that mont, a figure wearing a partner’s cloak had already arrived at the entrance of the booth, causing the few people inside to freeze for a mont.
Shortly after, Bru looked at Tao Yu with a smile and spoke,
"Friend, is there sothing you need?"
Even in such a place, a mid-level partner had his own face value, easily exchanged for a smiling face.
Tao Yu looked back, then stepped aside, revealing the enormous Panda coming towards them, and then pointed at Panda saying,
"I am a major shareholder of Dada Company. I’ve heard recently that you’ve been causing trouble?"
The aggressive tone Tao Yu used, coupled with the sudden appearance of Panda, really did make Bru’s facial expression freeze for a mont.
Running into Panda wasn’t an issue; it’s normal to encounter acquaintances in entertainnt venues.
But to use such an aggressive tone right off the bat—what was that about?
This suddenly made Bru uncertain and suspicious of a potential plot.
A provocation? And then have their own people nearby, get enraged and want to do sothing?
Tao Yu’s assertiveness actually made Bru choose to swallow his anger and said in a deep voice,
"Friend, in the new Developnt Zone, everyone competes on their own rits, and I don’t believe I’ve seen you before."
He was also worried that Tao Yu was soone from the old Developnt Zone.
Seeing that they didn’t initiate a confrontation, as Panda had described at the start, Tao Yu was montarily taken aback; even Panda and Zhang Lei were surprised—could it be handled like this?
Could it be they were intimidated? They sure knew how to play...
Tao Yu noticed the script had gone awry and paused.
But then he thought, no, if they’re not picking a fight, can’t I initiate one myself?
After glancing around and spotting the beauties in their compartnt, he pointed at them and said,
"Now we’re acquainted. It’s such a waste for you to have so many ability points. Hand over half to ."
As these words landed, the scene fell into an awkward silence.
Even Panda, at the back, nearly stumbled over his own feet.
Man, aren’t you drawing too much hatred!
"You..."
Bru’s face flushed with a wave of red, as if it had ward up, but he quickly suppressed his emotions again and raised his hand to stop his companions who were about to curse, taking a long breath before gritting his teeth and saying,
"Fine, you ladies, go with him."
After he spoke, Bru closed his eyes.
This left Tao Yu a bit dumbfounded; he couldn’t believe Bru could endure so much.
"I’ve set my sights on those two beside you."
Tao Yu blinked.
"Good, you all go over there!"
Uncertain of the specifics and not wanting to take any risks, Bru decided to hold back and assert his dominance for now.
"Are you trying to investigate ?"
Tao Yu spoke again, and Bru remained silent.
"No answer is considered tacit consent."
With his rage simring, Bru opened his eyes once more.
"What do you want?!"
This was never-ending, wasn’t it? They had already made concessions!
"Give up the competition and sign the agreent."
Bru couldn’t help but laugh in anger at Tao Yu’s words, and then his mouth twisted into a grimace, revealing his chilling white teeth as he said,
"We have never competed with Dada Company. If you have occasionally encountered so troubles and harassnt, that’s your problem. You can’t bla everything on us. We need evidence to take action!"
As Bru said this, he was grinding his teeth, his words laced with a touch of vengeful satisfaction.
What now? Still couldn’t deal with us in the end, could you?
Even if it’s harassnt, what can you do?
Even if you know it was us, what can you do?
Everything is done within the rules!
If there’s no evidence, then it wasn’t us!
Thinking of his adversary’s frustration, Bru truly felt refreshed, as if all the previous restraints had been vented, and a slight smile appeared on his face.
"Friend, we can’t be hasty in our affairs in the new Developnt Zone. We are all people of the Developnt Zone. We’ll see each other again, so you should be responsible for your words."
Bru shook the wine glass in his hand, his face showing a look of confident victory.
The problem now was intractable. We are no weaker than you, without territory, barefoot and not afraid of those with shoes. What can you do to us?
Coming here brazenly is nothing but a display of impotent rage...
Slap~
Tao Yu delivered a resounding slap, not a hard one, just with the force of an ordinary person.
The damage wasn’t great, but it was extrely insulting.
"I don’t like the way you’re looking at ."
Having been slapped across the face, Bru was still sowhat in disbelief.
"You hit ?"
Slap~
The other side of his face got slapped by Tao Yu as well.
"I told you not to look at like that."
"What are you waiting for?! Get him!"
Bru, not yet nineteen, had shown great restraint up until now due to familial teachings, despite his concerns about potential problems.
But the two resounding slaps from Tao Yu completely drove him over the edge of reason.
Before Tao Yu’s forceful intervention, the hostess ladies who had been keeping company had already scattered either through the door or under the table; as they left, they didn’t forget to quickly tack on a reminder that ’you pay for anything you break’.
Their smooth exit was almost heartbreaking.
And it was only after the hostess ladies had left that Bru roared and lunged at Tao Yu, his body suddenly covered in tallic luster scales, his fingernails gleaming sharply.
His companions also made their moves, with one agile individual poised to entangle Panda and delay him, aiming to create a four-on-one situation to quickly resolve the fight.
But the next mont, in front of the one preparing to pounce on Panda, a red Gang Qi-imbued palm appeared.
"Are you kidding , still fixating on soone else..."
Gang Qi!
The agile figure’s scalp tingled, as he realized the strike was faster than himself and unavoidable!
Boom~
The force of the blow ravaged the area; the individual who had been about to delay Panda by attacking him rocketed backward into two of his companions, the three tumbling together.
After Airily sending one flying, Tao Yu moved in on Bru, whose expression had already soured, alternating left and right palms charged with Gang Qi, effortlessly shattering the last two companions’ defenses and almost simultaneously grabbing their throats and lifting them in the air.
"I was reasonable with you, yet you attack ?"
Bru, throat constricted and unable to speak, nearly wanted to cry out in misery, never before in his life had he suffered such indignity...
