152: Chapter 151 Deterioration 152: Chapter 151 Deterioration “A man of the mountains has his tricks!
You can mull it over at your own pace!” Liu Hun teased, tossing out a parting line before turning away.
Cai Yan was so furious she stamped her feet, causing her chest to quiver, and pointed at Liu Hun’s back, seething, “Go on and be smug!
Sooner or later, I’ll expose you!
Just you wait!”
While Liu Hun mobilized the villagers of the forr village to buy shares and invest collectively, he also began planning pig farming land.
The villagers of the forr village weren’t of the sa breed as those of Wanbao Village.
Many in Wanbao Village had watched Liu Hun grow up from a child in split-crotched pants, which made it really tough for him to establish credibility there.
However, the forr villagers were different; they had turned from enemies to beneficiaries under Liu Hun, following him step by step out of the quagmire.
Therefore, this investnt mobilization eting was warmly received by the entire forr village, as if they were offering incense at the temple every fifteenth day of the month; they almost put Liu Hun up on a pedestal.
Ultimately, every household in the forr village collected two thousand yuan each, while those whose land was used to build the pig farm offered land value as their share.
For those without money, Liu Hun loaned them so.
The matter was sorted out swiftly.
After the pig farm was completed, the black piglets, selected by Cai Yan for Liu Hun, were delivered.
These black pigs were a crossbreed between wild boars and dostic pigs; their at was lean and of high quality, and notably, they had strong disease resistance.
Cai Yan was eager to see how long Liu Hun could keep the pigs alive on this polluted land.
Not only were the forr villagers excited about Liu Hun leading them in black pig farming, but even idle folks in Taiping Town showed a keen interest.
“Hey!
Did you hear?
That godforsaken place, the forr village, has started pig farming!
I’ve heard that it’s Liu Hun, the talented guy from our town, who’s leading it.”
“Get outta here!
The forr village used to ss with so drugs that killed more than a dozen people!
I’ve heard that the place is troubled everywhere, grass can’t even grow.
Keeping pigs there is just nonsense!”
“Seriously!
I saw it clearly that day, several big trucks parked at the station.
Those folks from the forr village were taking pigs like it was a share-out; those pigs were pitch black, competing with each other.
Soone ntioned they were so new breed!
I bet it won’t be long before they’re knocking on King Yan’s door.”
“…”
On a small street stall in Taiping Town, chatter about the foolishness of the forr village was in the air.
anwhile, a man with a slightly sinister look sat quietly in a corner, occasionally glancing at the crowd, as if waiting for soone or searching for sothing.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in a leather jacket with a bit of stubble sat down across from him.
Ordering a bowl of noodles, he smiled and said, “Never thought you had such influence.
Even our forr town mayor and a deputy county magistrate both got taken down because of you, and yet here you are back!
Impressive!”
The man lifted his eyes, revealing his whole face — none other than Huang Xiaofeng!
“Tang Dejun, let’s cut to the chase.
I’m only back for one reason: to destroy Liu Hun, to make him wish he were dead!
I asked around about you; you’ve suffered at his hands before.
Since you know how capable I am, I won’t mince words.
Will you team up with to ruin Liu Hun?” Huang Xiaofeng asked Tang Dejun quietly, with spite in his eyes.
Tang Dejun rely chuckled and said, “Mr.
Huang, do you think Liu Hun is like dough to be pinched as you please?
Do you know what kind of impact he’s had here?
Just ask anyone if they know Liu Hun and whether they’d dare to cross him?”
Huang Xiaofeng sneered coldly and said, “Even the most capable people have flaws, and flaws can be exploited.
Besides, by aligning with …
you won’t suffer!” He then reached into his coat and pulled out thirty thousand yuan, placing it on the table.
Tang Dejun stared at the stack of money, montarily stunned, then grabbed it quickly.
Glancing around to make sure no one was watching, he grinned and said, “Money can move mountains, while without oil, even the King Yan’s lamp won’t light!
Mr.
Huang, you’re a man who gets it!
Count in!
Tell what’s next!”
Seeing his monetary lure had worked, Huang Xiaofeng felt assured.
After all, as an outsider, he wasn’t familiar with Taiping Town.
To take on Liu Hun wasn’t easy.
He needed Tang Dejun’s help.
“It’s simple.
You heard them talking here; everyone’s talking about Liu Hun leading the forr village in black pig farming.
We’ll start with these pigs!” Huang Xiaofeng said with a sly grin to Tang Dejun.
“Black pigs?
Why not just deal with Liu Hun directly and save the trouble?” Tang Dejun asked Huang Xiaofeng, puzzled.
To him, it seed like an unnecessary move.
Huang Xiaofeng shook his head and said, “First off, Liu Hun is cunning and ruthless; even the martial arts champion I brought couldn’t beat him, let alone street thugs like you.
Secondly, would you rather kill a man with a single knife or slice him slowly, making him painfully die?”
“Tsk!
Genius!
True genius!
We can’t handle Liu Hun for now, so let’s systematically destroy everything around him!
Leave this black pig business to , no worries!” Tang Dejun said, standing to leave when Huang Xiaofeng stopped him.
“Hang on!
How do you plan to do it?” Huang Xiaofeng asked Tang Dejun.
Tang Dejun scoffed, “Isn’t it simple?
Sneak in at night, a packet of rat poison will take care of it all!”
“Brother!
That’s not the way to handle it.
Listen to first,” Huang Xiaofeng said slowly, with a teaching posture, but from a crooked monk reciting skewed scriptures, “If we act now, we’ll only cause Liu Hun a financial loss, too small a blow.
Think about it.
If he raises these piglets to market size, then they all die, what’s the impact?”
Tang Dejun’s eyes glimred with evil delight, “Brilliant!
Absolutely brilliant!
I, Tang Dejun, yield to you!
This way, Liu Hun loses more money, and not only that, he’s wasted months of hard work.
More importantly, the forr village will surely be in an uproar, and Liu Hun will be nothing but dog shit there!
No one will trust him!”
“Brother, you’ve only grasped part of it.
There’s another.
This task shouldn’t be done by you personally but by others,” Huang Xiaofeng smiled, giving Tang Dejun another sche.
“Who will do it?” Tang Dejun didn’t get it.
“You’ve been around Taiping Town for so ti, should know familiar faces in the forr village, right?
Bribe a couple of greedy and traitorous ones.
First, they can monitor the pigs’ growth.
Second, when we make our move, it won’t require you or to step in.
Even if sothing goes wrong, they’re the ones in trouble.
Also, it’ll incite conflict with Liu Hun!
Once trust is lost, nothing will work!” Huang Xiaofeng thoroughly instructed Tang Dejun.
Listening to Huang Xiaofeng, Tang Dejun felt like he was witnessing sothing foul spill from a waste treatnt plant.
The two chatted more enthusiastically, as if they’d already trampled Liu Hun.
Finally, Huang Xiaofeng told Tang Dejun, “I’ve rented a yard on the western side of town.
From now on, look for there, I’ll see only you, no one else.
Go bribe two people in the forr village soon, and set up the network.”
After saying this, Huang Xiaofeng left.
Tang Dejun touched the thick stack of money in his pocket, smiling and muttering, “Liu Hun, let’s see if you can survive this ti!”
So ti later, the pig farm in the forr village gradually settled down, but as Cai Yan had initially predicted, the pollution hadn’t subsided.
So black pigs began showing signs of illness, but luckily, Liu Hun was diligent.
Over ti, the pigs at the farm all received Qi Force infusion, growing so strong they could knock down pens.
While Qin Yue managed affairs in Wanbao Village, Liu Hun gradually handed over the forr village tasks to Geng Erzhu.
Seeing Liu Hun’s trust, Geng Erzhu worked with full effort.
As Liu Hun lifted his teacup that day, Geng Erzhu arrived, holding a notebook.
“Brother Hun, here’s this month’s pig farm roster.
As per your instructions, I’ve clearly divided responsibilities for feeding, cleaning, and night watch.
Everyone able-bodied has a task.”
Liu Hun took it and carefully examined it, unwilling to be sloppy.
Upon finishing, he noticed sothing amiss.
Quickly retrieving last month’s roster for comparison, he detected the issue and called Geng Erzhu, “Erzhu, look at this.
Why do Liu Erhu and Zhang Daniu have all the night shifts this month?”
Geng Erzhu scratched his head and smiled, “They’re young and vigorous.
More night shifts an helping out others.”
“Alright, I understand.
Get back to work, and update promptly if anything arises,” Liu Hun waved Geng Erzhu off, eyeing his back with sharp intensity.
As soon as Geng Erzhu left, Liu Hun had Mao’er rush to the Lin Family troupe to find Li Tou.
Within an hour, Li Tou arrived in Wanbao Village on a tractor.
Unaware of why Liu Hun urgently summoned him, Li Tou exchanged brief pleasantries upon entering.
After sitting down, Liu Hun asked, “Li Tou, you’re from the forr village, right?”
Li Tou’s square face showed a bit of a startle, then quickly nodded, “Not hiding from you, Brother Guan, I am indeed from the forr village.
You know the poverty there.
So I had to join the opera troupe.
Though the old house remains, it’s probably unlivable by now.”
“I’d like you to do a favor,” Liu Hun cut straight to the point.
