FID – Chapter 403

Chapter 403: He Almost Pissed Himself in Terror

  After squeezing back into the small consultation room, Dafu heard An Cai ask, “Dafu, what did you find when I asked you to search them?”

  ”Right!” Dafu slapped his head and quickly fished out two black tokens from his bosom: “I almost forgot, they both had these on them.”

  Liu Yusheng took the token and examined it. The black half palm-sized wooden token was carved with a claw pattern, nothing more.

  She’d take it to Aunt Hong later and see if she could recognize it.

  ”Nannan, this incident is certainly not simple. Someone must be jealous of our prosperity and want to play tricks on us!”

  ”We have to be more careful in the future. Perhaps because they can’t ferret out anything in our village so they can only go to Xiapo Village.”

  ”Yes, we have to be on guard. Now that several new wineries have opened, there are so many people doing the work. If someone mixes in to make things happen, we can’t guard against it.”

  The Xinghua villagers heard everything from the start, so they figured out the purpose.

  In short, the people behind had one purpose, and that was to ruin the Liu family.

  Could someone just go and investigate information regarding the Lius ancestors? Those people must be planning to dig something bad and hold it against the Lius!

  ”Uncles, aunts, don’t worry, I will see that this matter is resolved.” Liu Yusheng smiled and reassured the villagers. But honestly, she had already guessed who was targeting them inwardly.

  So who racked their brains to deal with her family? Except for the Liu family in the capital, she couldn’t think of a second.

  The two people who were sent out this time were probably just unimportant minions. They must have come to explore the way. 

  They didn’t resort to direct means, probably in fear of startling the snake. They probably never imagined that they’d capsize in the gutter of Xiapo Village.

  The people behind the scenes must be disappointed.

  Liu Jinfu mused and said, “From now on, anyone who goes out for a walk outside the village must be more alert. If you see a raw face entering the village, report it immediately.”

  ”These two people probably came to explore the way. Now that they haven’t gone back, the people behind them will certainly not stop and will continue to send people.” An Cai also lowered his face. He turned his head towards Dahua and instructed, “Go and tell the boys in the town that if a stranger asks for information, divulge some information. Tell them that some people went missing in Xinghua Village.

  The Liu family: “…”

  Xinghua villagers: “…”

  Liu Jinfu cursed, “An Cai, can you have some face? At your age, you are still so unkind! How is it that people disappear in our village? Are you not putting the blame on us?”

  ”How is it putting the blame on you? Didn’t they come to your village?” An Cai laughed coldly: “If I want face, should I sacrifice more than a hundred lives in my village? Our village does not have a female bodyguard who can fly over the wall, a poison doctor who is highly skilled, or high officials backing us up! If you don’t take the blame, should we have to take care of the mess ourselves after we helped you? Who is shameless!”

  Liu Jinfu’s face turned red, and he couldn’t refute it.

  That seemed to be indeed the case.

  However, he had always been proud for more than a decade and could never show weakness in front of An Cai and bow. It took a while for him to string a rebuttal, “Then at the beginning, you could have lured them away and told us the news later, too. You just had to crack their heads open. Be gentle with your tactics, and we’ll surely think of a way to deal with…”

  ”Petty kindness. They have made it clear they came to beat you, yet you still want the tiger to return to the mountain? That’s why we should beat anyone who comes one by one, or two by two, and let them never return! After three or two times, do you think the people behind them will still dare to send people rashly? In any case, there’s a fixed number of enemies. Shed all pretense of cordiality and f*ck with them. They treat you better than a dagger, yet you still smile and think about a gentle solution. Are you stupid?” 

  The Xinghua villagers were subjected to a bloody scolding.

  An Cai’s words were on point. Not everyone in their village had this problem.

  They were used to prioritizing peace and harmony, and being neighborly. They really couldn’t come up with An Cai’s tactics. 

  ”Nevertheless, Village Chief An Cai, thank you this time,” Liu Yusheng said.

  ”I heard that you will build a second batch of wine shops in the future. When that time comes, can you give a quota to Xiapo Village?”

  The spectators didn’t expect a person like An Cai to take the opportunity to make such a request. Thus, they froze.

  Liu Yusheng also froze for a moment, then smiled: “No problem.”

  Laughter soon filled the entire consultation room.

  The two villages that had been fighting for decades finally truly put aside the bad blood between each other and smiled at each other.

  Grandpa Liu went over and patted An Cai on the shoulder. In terms of age, he was older than An Cai, so he did the action smoothly. “You really impressed me this time. From before to now, you do things harshly and unreasonably. I have never seen you afraid, but this time, your violence is good.”

  ”I got furious when they only bribed me with ten taels of silver, as if bestowing it to a beggar. They’re insulting country folks as if we’ve never seen money.”

  In the consultation room, another burst of laughter erupted, and An Cai rubbed his neck.

  The five finger scar there tingled.

  Never been afraid?

  When that little brat locked his throat.

  He almost pissed himself in terror.

  While the bunch was laughing, Dahua inched close to Dafu and asked him in a whisper, “How much silver did you get during the body search? Remember to give my share later.”

  ”Why should I share it with you? The Village Chief beat them, while I tied them up and sent them here. If there’s any share, it’ll be divided by the village chief and me. What does it have to do with you?” Dafu turned his face away.

  Dahua bristled: “I also carried the Village Chief and asked for help!”

  ”Then you ask the Village Chief for money. It’s not me you carried.”

  ”…” If they weren’t on someone else’s turf, he would have had a fight with this bastard, Dafu.

  Why the f*ck is he so dark? Everyone in the same village must be shady!

  The two villages were close to each other, and to heal An Cai’s injury, all he had to do was to stay in bed and wait for his bones to heal. After his medicine was prescribed, the Xiapo villagers took An Cai back.

  Liu Jinfu also dispersed the Xinghua villagers.

  Once the door of the Liu family compound was closed, the family along with Liu Jinfu sat in the hall and began to discuss what happened today.

  ”Nannan, is this matter related to Axiu?” Grandpa Liu asked.

  If anyone wanted to deal with their family, most of them would have only been jealous of their business, and they would have only started with the wine shops and the wine recipes, and would never have investigated the exact details of their ancestors for no reason.

  Before Liu Yusheng answered, Qian Wanjin replied, “I’m afraid this matter is not only related to Feng Qingbai, but also related to my family. If my guess is right, it should be the Liu family in the capital jumping over the wall in desperation.”

  ”The Liu family in the capital?” Grandpa Liu and the others frowned. They had heard Nannan mention this family with Xiao Jinzi more than once.

  Liu Jinfu was astonished: “The capital’s Liu family, they’re the richest family in Nanling. How did you get involved with them?”

  ”Grandpa Village Chief, you just need to know that the capital’s Liu family is in a hostile relationship with us.”

  ”Then you have to tell me what’s going on in between! Is it because our business is so prosperous, making them jealous?”

  Qian Wanjin laughed: “It’s exactly because they’re jealous! Now that our wine and nourishing tea in the capital is in high demand, they can not win, so they want to hit us from somewhere else.”

  ”But they are only jealous, they should just make moves in the business field. Why are they investigating our ancestors?” Grandma Liu asked. This was what puzzled her the most.
