Chapter 147 The Flourishing Clivia
Now Liu Weidong understood why Liu Qiang had come to him; he had come to beg for mercy. It seemed that Tiger had indeed frightened them.
However, if apologies were effective, there would be no need for the police. Liu Weidong said expressionlessly, "You've got it wrong. This has nothing to do with me. It's Liu Guoxing who owes money to someone else. You need to talk to the creditor. It's no use coming to me!"
Seeing that Liu Weidong refused to budge, Liu Qiang, that old bastard, tried to act shamelessly again, bending his knees and sitting down on the ground.
Liu Weidong knew exactly what Liu Qiang was planning, so he grabbed the old man by the collar and lifted him up again.
"Listen to me carefully, I'll only say this once!" Liu Weidong grabbed Liu Qiang's collar and warned him in a low voice, "You're not young anymore. If you still want someone to take care of you in your old age, then don't get involved in this, otherwise... hehe!"
Although Liu Weidong only sneered, it had already terrified Liu Qiang, who turned and left in a panic. He was afraid that if he delayed even a second longer, Liu Yongfu and his son would lose their lives.
Liu Weidong glanced at Liu Qiang's retreating figure, a cold smile playing on his lips. This old bastard still wants to act tough because of his age? Well, let's give him a little shock and see if he dares to come back again!
After scaring Liu Qiang away, Liu Weidong leisurely walked to the private plot behind the house. There he saw Wang Shujuan, Aunt Zhao, and several elderly people from the village, all busy watering the clivia.
Although Liu Weidong said he would leave all the clivia to his sister, he was worried that she would get tired. So he asked several experienced old farmers in the village to help Wang Shujuan take care of the clivia.
Anyway, the clivia plants are all planted. Apart from the daily management such as watering, fertilizing and weeding, there is no heavy work to do, which is quite suitable for elderly people like Aunt Zhao.
With so many people helping, Wang Shujuan's workload will be much lighter. Moreover, the old farmers' experience in farming will also be of some help in cultivating clivia, so it's a win-win situation.
The only cost Liu Weidong paid was twenty yuan per person per month. Including Aunt Zhao, Liu Weidong hired a total of five villagers, and their monthly wages were exactly one hundred yuan!
After everyone learned about this, although they didn't say it outright, they all concluded that Liu Weidong was a spendthrift. Who spends so much money hiring people to take care of flowers and plants? Even if someone is rich, they shouldn't waste them like that!
Only Liu Weidong knew in his heart that this amount of money was nothing. He had already calculated that even if these clivia plants took a whole year to grow, the labor cost would only be 1,200 yuan. Once he sold one or two clivia plants, he could easily earn back the money.
Liu Weidong has a full eight hundred clivia plants. Even if most of them die in the following year, it will still be a profitable business!
Busy Wang Shujuan saw Liu Weidong and quickly came up to him with a smile, saying, "Weidong, what brings you here?"
It was already late April, and it was getting quite hot working in the sun.
Seeing his sister's rosy cheeks, Liu Weidong's mood improved, and he said with a smile, "Nothing much, just came to see you. How are you?"
"The clivia are all doing very well!" Wang Shujuan said happily, her face beaming. "Uncle Zheng originally said that planting so many clivia together would definitely cause dozens of them to die because they wouldn't adapt to their new pots. But two weeks have passed, and only three have died. Everyone says that's a great result!"
Actually, Liu Weidong didn't care whether a few dozen clivia plants died or not, but seeing his sister so happy, he smiled and said, "That's really amazing, sis, you've successfully earned yourself a few thousand more yuan!"
"Is it really worth that much money?" Wang Shujuan asked in surprise, her beautiful lips parted into an oval shape in shock, making one want to kiss her.
However, Liu Weidong knew that if he did this in front of others, his sister would run away from home tomorrow, so he could only suppress the thought and whisper, "That's a must. When have I ever lied to you?"
“Then I need to take even better care of these clivias!” Wang Shujuan said earnestly, and then told Liu Weidong, “Uncle Zheng can fertilize the clivias now, preferably with fermented sheep manure. So tomorrow we plan to go to the sheepfold in the neighboring village and ask them for some sheep manure to ferment.”
Liu Weidong whispered, "Sister, didn't I ask Aunt Zhao and the others for help? Let them do the dirty and tiring work!"
But Wang Shujuan shook her head and said, "How can that be? Clivia is so precious, I can't just ignore it!"
Seeing Wang Shujuan's enthusiastic expression, Liu Weidong chuckled inwardly. However, since his sister was enjoying herself so much, Liu Weidong didn't intend to stop her, only reminding her not to overexert herself.
Feeling Liu Weidong's concern for her, Wang Shujuan smiled sweetly at him and said, "Don't worry, I'll be careful!"
Just as the two were talking quietly, Wang Deli arrived with two men, looking menacing and clearly up to no good.
Seeing that this old man still dared to cause trouble, Liu Weidong couldn't help but frown. It seemed that the lesson he had given him was not enough!
Wang Deli approached the two men, glanced at Liu Weidong smugly, and said, "Liu Weidong, after discussion by the village committee, it has been decided to take back your private plot and allocate another one to you!"
Wang Shujuan became anxious as soon as she heard this. The village had just allocated this piece of land to her family, and now they wanted to take it back so quickly. This was clearly a deliberate attempt to make things difficult for them!
Liu Weidong was not surprised at all. Given the deep-seated hatred he had forged with the Wang family, it would be strange if Wang Deli didn't seek revenge.
However, Liu Weidong was no longer going to let Wang Deli lead him by the nose. He simply crossed his arms and said coldly, "Wang Deli, Hexi Village is no longer your personal fiefdom. You think you can take away my family's private land with just a word? Don't even think about it!"
"You...you're openly making an enemy of the village committee!" Wang Deli immediately accused Liu Weidong of this serious offense, then loudly told the two men he had brought with him, "That piece of land now belongs to the village. You two go and clean it all up!"
This is Wang Deli's real purpose. You, Liu Weidong, love to grow these flowers and plants, right? Well then, I'll smash them all, pot and all. My main goal is to make things difficult for you!
"Let's see who dares to come to my land!" Liu Weidong suddenly shouted, grabbing a wooden stick at his feet and coldly saying, "If the left leg comes in, I'll strike the left leg; if the right leg comes in, I'll strike the right leg; if both come in at the same time, I'll break them both!"
The two men immediately stood still, afraid to move, lest they cause Liu Weidong to misunderstand.
"Liu Weidong, if you continue to disobey the village committee's arrangements, you'll regret it!" Wang Deli flew into a rage, urging the two men loudly, "What are you two standing there for? Go and smash his flowerpots!"
