Chapter 410: Abolished
"Village Chief Cao, my family has been farming for generations, but three years ago, with the excuse of renting land, you took away my family’s right to produce on five acres of land. I went to your house to ask for rent, but you got someone to beat me up, causing one of my legs to be permanently disabled. I want to ask, what did I do wrong? I was farming honestly, and merely wanted an explanation from you, but you beat me up like that. Now you want me to forgive you? Who’s going to pity me? Do I have to live in your shadow?"
"Cao Xing! You only care about money, about your own interests! Our Laoshan Village once had a 1000-year-old ginkgo tree. It was planted by our ancestor 1000 years ago and has witnessed the Laoshan Village’s long history! No matter how poor we are, no matter how miserable our lives are, no one has ever dared to have any ideas about it. The significance this ginkgo tree’s existence can not be measured by in monetary terms! But what did you do? You colluded with someone for money and sold it on your own! You’re really an animal. No, you’re even worse than an animal! Forgive you? You should ask your dead father and grandfather if they can forgive you first!"
After Li An made the first move, the Laoshan villagers were no longer silent.
Almost everyone was able to voice their grudges with Cao Xing.
In this lawless place, Cao Xing was the local tyrant. His happy life had been built on the collective pain of the Laoshan villagers.
"This Cao Xing is really a piece of trash." Chu Huan, who was standing at the entrance of the central room, couldn’t help but curse.
If Cao Xing had been in M City, he would have been shot several times for the crimes he had committed.
But here, he was fine and was even living a very comfortable life.
