Reborn in 95, I unearthed a gold mine after the family split up.

Otherwise, conducting geological surveys outside the village would definitely lead to endless troubles.

Since this Zhang Laizi is going to jump out and become the chicken, then we have no choice but to make an example of him.

Intimidated by Zhang Dong's arrogance, these hooligans immediately backed down.

I dared not go forward again.

Zhang Laizi was startled when he saw this.

He had already made arrangements with the local hooligans beforehand to stage this accident, so they would support him and extort a large sum of money from Zhang Dong.

But now, seeing that even his helpers were frightened, he became anxious.

"What the hell are you afraid of? What are you capable of? This is our village's land. Do you think he can kill you or something?"

Zhang Laizi's outburst made these hooligans lose face.

One of the young men cursed, "That's right, damn it, that's exactly what happened. You have to give Old Zhang an explanation for what happened today."

Zhang Dong's eyes were bloodshot: "Whether I give him an explanation or not is my business. I hope you all stay out of it."

A fat man also grumbled angrily, "We just got involved, so what are you going to do about it?"

Director Ma, fearing the situation would escalate, quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Zhang Dong, why don't you listen to your elders? What's wrong with losing a little money?"

"Will you die?"

Zhang Dong wasn't concerned about losing this small amount of money; he was afraid that others would follow suit and things would get out of control.

“I told Director Ma, this is none of your business. I’ll handle it myself. We absolutely cannot tolerate such a scoundrel.”

Seeing that Zhang Dong wouldn't listen, Director Ma had no choice but to send his men to call the old village chief.

He was also afraid that if the two sides got into a fight and someone died, he would also be held responsible.

But given the current situation, our own people have just arrived, and even if the old village chief were to come, it would take time…

Zhang Laizi's eyes also reddened; he had never encountered such a tough young man before.

The young people in the village knew his temper and didn't dare to provoke him.

Since this kid is so arrogant, Zhang Laizi decided to extort money from Zhang Dong.

"You little brat, you dare to slap me? Don't you know who in the surrounding villages doesn't know the name of Zhang Laizi?"

"Now I have a severe concussion and my teeth are loose. It's not just about those plates and bowls anymore; you, kid, also have to pay my medical expenses."

Upon seeing Zhang Laizi lying on the ground, Zhang Dong made a claim for compensation, to which Zhang Dong calmly nodded.

"Okay, in that case, I will grant all your requests."

"However, I have plenty of money. I feel that your injuries are too minor to go to the hospital."

Zhang Dong's words left the villagers stunned and speechless.

"What? This kid thinks he wasn't beaten enough? Doesn't he know how shameless Zhang Laizi is?"

“Sun Cheng pushed him before, and he ended up in the hospital for half a month.”

"I guess this kid doesn't know Zhang Laizi's character. If he did, he would be scared."

Some people questioned, "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear what the young man was saying?"

“He has already said that he has plenty of money and doesn’t care about compensation. I think he’s just trying to save face and wants Zhang Laizi to stay in the hospital a little longer.”

As they were discussing this, they saw Zhang Dong leap up and walk a few steps to Zhang Laizi.

The screams of the crowd startled Zhang Laizi.

Although he had the nickname "scoundrel," he had never witnessed such a shocking scene.

He screamed and was about to jump up when Zhang Dong grabbed his hair and lifted him off the ground like a dead dog.

"You bastard, since you want to be hospitalized for treatment, then I'll grant your wish."

"However, since you want to go to the hospital, you should get seriously injured before you go, so I can spend more money."

"Don't worry, I don't care about the money, I just can't stand your despicable behavior."

As he said this, Zhang Dong raised his hand to slap someone.

Slap after slap, like raindrops, landed on Zhang Laizi's face.

"Ahhh-"

A series of screams came from Zhang Laizi's mouth.

At this moment, he was so badly beaten by Zhang Dong that he couldn't even open his eyes, and could only make mechanical screams.

Everyone was stunned and speechless; no one had expected Zhang Dong to be so fierce.

Even Director Ma, who was standing next to him, was momentarily stunned.

"Zhang Dong, stop right now, stop hitting him!" a loud shout came from the side.

The loud shout brought Director Ma back to his senses, and he saw that it was the old village chief who had shouted.

Seeing the old village chief arrive, Zhang Dong stopped beating Zhang Laizi.

This time, Zhang Laizi couldn't stand up at all. Dizzy and with a bruised and swollen face, he fell headfirst to the ground as Zhang Dong let go of his hair.

"Hey, Zhang Dong, why are you so reckless?"

Seeing Zhang Dong beat Zhang Laizi like this, Li Qingshan's hands trembled.

He also knew that this Zhang Laizi was no good, and even if he were to handle things, things would still be quite troublesome.

After all, he's a shameless scoundrel, and nobody in the village wants to mess with him.

Given the current situation, with the other party beaten so badly by Zhang Dong, knowing his character, he'll definitely try to extort a hefty sum from Zhang Dong next...

Upon hearing the old village chief's question, Zhang Dong also pretended to be remorseful, and hurriedly shook his hands.

"Oh dear, village chief, I'm so sorry. I couldn't help myself just now. I saw that this scoundrel was so difficult to deal with, so I gave him a good beating."

"He said he was going to blackmail me, and he's been threatening me so blatantly. I've never seen anyone so arrogant before..."

"Ahem." Li Qingshan looked embarrassed.

Upon hearing the news, he rushed over, but despite his haste, he was still too late.

Young people are hot-tempered; now they've resorted to violence and beaten up that shameless old man.

He also felt the problem was very difficult.

Lowering his voice, Li Qingshan said reproachfully, "How could you be so reckless? After what happened yesterday, didn't you even bother to find out who he is?"

“If you act like this, he’ll definitely try to extort a lot of money from you. That old man has no humanity.”

Hearing Li Qingshan say these things to him, Zhang Dong knew that the village chief was doing this for his own good.

At this point, the other villagers who were watching couldn't help but start discussing it amongst themselves.

"I guess the village chief has also realized something's wrong. This is troublesome. I wonder how much money it will take to plug this huge hole?"

"What? You actually have such doubts? Don't you know Zhang Laizi's character? Anyway, this kid has vented his anger now, but I predict that with Zhang Laizi's methods, he'll be lying in the hospital, being paid to beg for his father."

"Yes, yes, I agree with you."
