Reborn in 1979, with a female educated youth lying next to me.

Liu Jia flexed his wrists, but his eyes remained fixed ahead.

Seeing the person rushing towards them, they quickly turned to the left.

The opponent missed, lost his balance, and leaned forward involuntarily.

Seizing the opportunity, Liu Jia grabbed the man's arm and threw him over his shoulder!

"what!"

Before the other person could figure out what was happening, they were slammed to the ground!

Even though it was summer and the ground was soft, the person still gasped in surprise when he was suddenly thrown out.

"What are you yelling for? This is just the beginning!"

As Liu Jia uttered this sentence, he used both his hands and feet!

First, he kicked the man, knocking him over, then knelt down on one knee and actually grabbed the man's throat with his hand!

Everyone was stunned for a while.

Before they could even see what the other person was doing, the leader had already been firmly grabbed!

In an instant.

The man's face was flushed, and he seemed to be having trouble breathing.

"Big brother!"

"Let go! Let go of my brother!"

"Kid, you cheated! You're asking for it!"

Panic erupted in the crowd, and weapons that had just been put away were pulled out again by the crowd.

Liu Jia sneered, "A bet's a bet, you want to back out?"

The people opposite looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.

There were only two people on the other side, so they naturally had no say. Whether to arrest or release the person depended entirely on the eldest brother's word.

But now it's better.

The other side has captured the eldest brother!

The sudden shift from being proactive to being reactive was something that was hard for everyone to accept.

But the facts are undeniable, and we have no choice but to accept them.

Just now, my brother really only used one move, and he was completely subdued without any chance to fight back. Everyone saw that.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The person in Liu Jia's arms coughed.

But Liu Jia showed no sign of letting go.

"Let us go, or I'll cripple him!"

With a little force, the man in Liu Jia's hands turned red in the face and his neck bulged, with veins popping out on his forehead!

"Go, go!"

He managed to squeeze out just two words from his throat, as if all his strength had been drained away.

"It's not enough for you to just say it. First, get these people in front of you out of here. If I don't tell them to stop, they'll keep retreating!"

This time, the man didn't speak, but nodded with difficulty.

Liu Jia loosened his grip slightly, and the man coughed violently again.

After a moment's pause, the man began to issue orders.

"Everyone move out! Nobody is allowed to stop!"

At the same time, Liu Jia quickly looked at Liu Yurou.

"Xiaoyu, hurry up and go find your people!"

After saying that, Liu Jia added, "If you can't find them, go to the law enforcement team and have the officers take you home!"

Right now, all he can do is hold off the people in front of him, so he has no way to protect Liu Yurou.

It would be best if Liu Yurou could find those bodyguards; if not, Liu Jia would have to remind her to go to a safe place.

"I'm not leaving. I have to stay with you. What will you do if I leave?"

Liu Yurou's gaze was firm as she suddenly walked towards Liu Jia.

"Are you crazy? Get out of here!"

Liu Jia didn't say the rest.

You're just wasting a chance that was created with such difficulty?

So what's the point of all this trouble?

Luckily, I had practiced before; otherwise, neither of them would have escaped!

Besides, if one of those idiots in the group ahead were to run after you, you might not even be able to save your life!

You want to live and die with me? What are you thinking?!

Liu Yurou was stunned by Liu Jia's imposing presence and was momentarily speechless.

Then, biting her lip, she turned and ran away.

Seeing this, Liu Jia finally felt relieved.

Looking again at the crowd in another direction, they were also moving forward.

"Tell them to hurry up, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

Although Liu Jia's words were harsh, he still felt a little smug.

It seems that the strategy of "capture the king first" is effective in both ancient and modern times!

Once the rest of the gang has run far away, dealing with this one will be more than enough.

The people who were walking ahead were gone, but Liu Yurou had disappeared.

Liu Jia released his grip, and the man began to breathe heavily.

He looked up at Liu Jia, his eyes filled with fear.

Liu Jia stared at the man for a while before looking away.

These people are looking for Liu Yurou.

But it was definitely not Liu Yurou who offended them.

Following the clues further, it seems they have some kind of grudge against Lao Liu.

To put it bluntly, Liu Yurou was dragged into this.

"Why...why don't you ask me what happened?"

Before Liu Jia could speak, the other party asked a question first.

Liu Jia glanced around and said, "I'm not interested in your affairs, and you shouldn't try anything with us. In a little while, you go your way and I'll go mine."

The man was taken aback, thought for a moment, and said, "I've also practiced, but I still failed because of you."

"Ah."

Liu Jia simply grunted in response.

The person in front of him was not only trained, but also quite skilled. However, just as he said, he had run into a tough opponent like himself.

"I'm not convinced!"

The man gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment.

Just as Liu Jia was about to laugh, a burst of applause suddenly came from behind him.

"What can you do if you're not convinced? It's always been a winner-takes-all story. If you can't beat them, you can't beat them. Go back and train harder."

The person at his feet instinctively shuddered.

Liu Jia quickly turned around.

A middle-aged man in his forties was walking towards them.

They clapped as they walked.

Liu Jia narrowed his eyes into slits, his mind racing.

I've never even crossed paths with this person.

However, the aura emanating from him made Liu Jia feel uneasy.

You could say the person in front of you was dressed plainly, yet his clothes were properly made.

He was looking at me and smiling, his eyes scrutinizing me.

The most noticeable thing is the scar under his left eyelid.

The scar wasn't large, but it was shocking.

When did this...scarred guy arrive?

As Liu Jia was wondering, the person had already arrived in front of him.

The person who had just been knocked to the ground by Liu Jia got up in a flash.

"Master Liu."

After respectfully addressing him, he quickly moved aside, bowing his head and remaining silent.

Scarface...Master Liu?

What do you mean?

Could this person in front of me be... Old Liu?

Liu Jia was taken aback.

Liu Dongpo himself had never actually met him, but in Liu Jia's imagination, Liu Dongpo shouldn't be like this.

Although they weren't that far apart in age, Liu Jia thought Old Liu should be a bald, short, fat man.

His face was greasy, and his body was full of fat.

A person who walks with their toes turned outwards and has a roguish air about them is the right one.

After all, everyone was saying how amazing Old Liu was, and even Liu Yurou would often purse her lips when she mentioned her biological father.

How could an old rogue be so agile?

"Liu Jia, okay."

The other person called out his name accurately.

Liu Jia simply asked, "Who are you...?"

"Liu Dongpo".

These three short words startled Liu Jia.

I just asked Liu Yurou to go find someone. Did she bring her own father here?

This commotion... has gotten a bit out of hand.

Looking at the respectful attitude of the person next to him, Liu Jia quickly pieced together the whole story.

This person knew Liu Dongpo; they were definitely not enemies!

If they had a deep-seated hatred for Liu Dongpo, they should have run away as soon as they saw him, instead of standing there respectfully.

Why were these people chasing him and Liu Yurou so desperately just now?

Didn't we say we were going to capture Liu Yurou?

How did you end up in the same group?

After staring into Liu Dongpo's eyes for two seconds, Liu Jia suddenly realized.

What the hell!

I've been tricked!

This group of people, including Liu Dongpo and Liu Yurou who just escaped, are all in cahoots!

Damn it, we're all in the same boat!

A nameless anger rose in Liu Jia's heart, and he quickly searched the surroundings.

Liu Yurou, it's only been a few days, and you're already playing tricks on me!

I risked my life to protect you, only to find I protected a heartless ingrate!

Liu Yurou is not at the scene now. If she were, Liu Jia vowed to find her and get to the bottom of things.

After carefully observing the changes in Liu Jia's facial expression, Liu Dongpo spoke again.

"Now you understand what's going on, right?"

"I wonder what business Master Liu has with me? He had someone drive me all the way from Xili Village to here just so they could chase after me for a while? That's unlikely, isn't it?"

“You are indeed a smart person. Since you asked, I will get straight to the point. I want to talk to you.”

"What to talk about?"

"You've passed my test, so let's talk about what's next."

Liu Jia was already disgusted by the scheme they had set up.

Upon hearing Liu Dongpo's words, Liu Jia's face instantly turned cold.

Was all that fuss just for a test?

Have you asked the person involved?

Did I agree?

Even if what just happened is over, we can move on and not mention it again.

But I don't want to talk about what happened next!

Regardless of what Liu Dongpo wanted to say, Liu Jia just wanted to leave!

"What? You don't want to?"

Seeing the displeasure on Liu Jia's face, Liu Dongpo asked another question.

Liu Jia bluntly replied, "Yes, I'm not interested in what you're going to do next."

"Don't speak so soon. Would you like to hear what I know about you?"

Liu Jia didn't speak, her lips pressed tightly together.

Now, although only Liu Donghui was standing in front of him, Liu Jia couldn't be sure that Liu Dongpo's men weren't lying in ambush around them.

Just like that group of people from before, they suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

At present, it seems that Liu Dongpo has no intention of leaving.

Liu Jia pondered what his chances of success would be if he turned and ran now.

But the moment Liu Dongpo opened his mouth, Liu Jia instantly changed his mind.

"Your situation is a bit chaotic right now, mainly because you can't spare any manpower."

"The bamboo basket factory is receiving more and more orders, and transportation is a problem."

"Your second brother Liu Jianye's fiancée is in the hospital and can't help you look after the factory."

"Big Brother Liu Xinguo can't do the work of two people."

"Li Zhenhe is inquiring about tractors, but he has no clue yet. After all, even old tractors in good condition are hard to find."

After speaking, he clearly explained Liu Jia's current situation.

Liu Jia swallowed hard.

This old Liu is really something; he even knows so much about his own car purchase.

It seems he has a wide network of connections.

"You know me so well, what exactly do you want?"

"I want to give you a tractor."

Upon hearing this, Liu Jia was stunned once again.

The temptation of the tractor was too great, but Liu Jia was still able to remain calm at this moment.

As the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Liu Dongpo's selfless and attentive service must have had an ulterior motive.

It's just that it hasn't been said out loud yet.

"What are the conditions? I never believe that something so good will happen to me; there must be a price to pay."

"Good, you're calm enough. You're the first person who can remain so composed in front of me, Liu Dongpo."

Liu Dongpo's words were not an exaggeration.

Many people tremble with fear upon learning of his name.

Liu Jia was not intimidated; instead, he calmly analyzed the reasons behind the situation, which was truly impressive.

"You don't need to flatter me; I want to know your purpose."

Liu Dongpo smiled again. "Liu Jia, why don't you guess why I would take the initiative to contact you?"

Liu Jia felt as if something had tugged at his heart.

The thought immediately came to mind... receipts!

Liu Dongpo knew himself and also had some understanding of Li Zhenhe.

Could it be?

He already knows what happened on the black market that day?
