Leisure Mountain Village

Chapter 957 Usury

Xu Laoliu looked helpless, as if he had been greatly wronged. He wanted to pull Lin Chen's trouser leg while speaking, but was blocked by the saber, so he could only withdraw his hand resentfully.

Lin Chen frowned, and said directly, "Okay, then tell me who forced you to steal the oil."

"I said...can you spare me this time!?" Xu Laoliu whispered.

Lin Chen shook his head and said, "Don't even think about it. I never believe in such things as putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha immediately. If you make a mistake, it is a mistake. If you want to reform, you can pay the price for the wrong thing first."

"Then...then why did I say that?" Xu Lao Liu asked.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "You don't have to say it! I didn't force you, but let me put it here. From now on in Taihang Ridge, you won't be able to find any job except farming your own land."

"You... aren't you bullying people!?" Xu Laoliu said with his neck stuck.

Lin Chen said coldly, "I just bullied you. Why didn't you ever think about whether you were bullying when you took the salary I gave you to steal labor and oil!? If you want to say it, say it, except for the police station to deal with it. Besides, I won't say anything more, but if I don't say anything... let's play slowly!"

Xu Laoliu's face was ugly. He originally thought that as long as he confessed honestly, with Lin Chen's good-natured character, he would definitely not embarrass him. Who doesn't know that Lin Chen, the great good man, is about to become a living Bodhisattva in Taihang Mountains.

But at this moment Xu Laoliu couldn't help but say, "Brother Crazy asked me to do it."

"Crazy brother?" Lin Chen was taken aback, and frowned, "Can you say your name? Who knows who your crazy brother is!?"

"It's Brother Crazy, I don't know what his real name is." Xu Laoliu said hastily.

Saber said at this time, "Why did he ask you to steal the oil? That oil is indeed quite valuable, but you are out of your mind if you put it on the back of your work in Yushu Foodstuffs? You also do this kind of business?"

Xu Laoliu said with a sad face, "I said, I can't help it. When I gambled, I lost too much to them. They played donkey rolling, and the profit is rolling. Now I earn even less money every month." Not enough, the agricultural machinery of our Yushu Foodstuffs uses the best oil, which is valuable... I steal a little every day, and I don’t need to sell it, it’s enough to pay for the interest if I give it to Brother Crazy.”

Suddenly, a person's appearance flashed through Lin Chen's mind, and he suddenly said, "The one who runs the casino, right? He started gambling in our warehouse in Yushu Village, and asked me to send it in?"

Xu Laoliu nodded quickly and said, "It's him, it's him!"

"He came out?" Lin Chen asked.

"Come out early, and the sentence won't last long for gathering a crowd to gamble. Besides, his younger brother admitted the account, so he was detained for a while, and came to me as soon as he came out." Xu Lao Liu wiped his nose, and then said, "Lin Chen, I really have no choice, his interest rate is too high, I can't pay it back, they are gangsters, I can't pay back the money, they will really attack me, I've seen them give money to people who can't pay back People's hands were chopped off."

Lin Chen looked at Xu Lao Liu with a trace of disgust and said, "To put it bluntly, you stole my oil to pay back the interest. That crazy brother is the reason, but they didn't let you steal my oil!?"

Xu Laoliu shook his head and said, "He said... if you steal from you, the interest will be one point less."

Lin Chen raised his brows. In fact, he couldn't see that this crazy brother was targeting him, but he definitely wanted to use Xu Laoliu's hand to make things difficult for him.

At this time, the sound of a police car rang out, and Li Zheng was soon seen walking in with Xiao Zhou. Lin Chen saw Li Zheng smiled, and Li Zheng rolled his eyes.

"What happened this time?" Li Zheng asked helplessly.

Lin Chen said, "It's nothing. A thief was caught. He stole gasoline from our farm machinery. The amount was relatively large, so we called the police."

When Li Zheng heard that it was just this matter, he felt relieved a little, nodded and said, "Sure, I'll take him back first, nothing else!?"

Lin Chen thought for a while and said, "According to this guy, there is a man called Crazy Brother, who told him to steal my oil to pay off the debt, and he can charge less interest. The police station will also take care of the loan sharks, right?"

Li Zheng nodded and said, "Nonsense, this kind of thing should be closed one by one. The crazy brother you said was sent in last time?"

"Yes." Lin Chen nodded.

Li Zheng also nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, the institute will take this matter seriously, then I will take him back first."

Li Zheng took Xu Laoliu away, and Lin Chen said to Saber, "Saber, arrange for our security personnel, be careful these few days, I'm afraid that if Li Zheng makes any moves, don't jump over the wall with that crazy brother, What to do to our farm and ranch."

Saber grinned and said, "Boss, don't worry! It's fine if he doesn't come. If he dares to come, I'll clean his bowels."

Lin Chen doesn't really care about this crazy guy. To put it bluntly, he is a gangster, disgusting, but if it is really done with open swords and guns, is China really Hong Kong Island in the 50s?
Back home from Dawei Village, Su Yan prepared all the cold medicines, Lin Chen said helplessly, "Daughter-in-law, I'm all well, don't you need to take any more?"

"Consolidate it, the cold is so easy to get better." Su Yan will no longer follow Lin Chen's thoughts at this time, and Lin Chen will drink the cold granule for everything.

Seeing that there was no room for resistance, Lin Chen could only drink it obediently. In the afternoon, Zou Kai first called and asked Lin Chen to prepare, saying that there was a guest.

Lin Chen thought it was Zou Kai who got the sponsor from somewhere, and didn't take it seriously, but when they met, he found that the person who came was Cui Jinming, the manager of Taihang Heavy Industry.

"Mr. Cui?" Lin Chen smiled, stood up and shook hands with Cui Jinming, "Why does Mr. Cui have time to come to us?"

Cui Jinming was full of helplessness, and said bitterly, "Mr. Lin, if I say that the things in the newspaper have nothing to do with our Taihang Heavy Industry, do you believe it or not?"

Lin Chen nodded without hesitation and said, "I believe it! Why don't you believe it?"

Cui Jinming originally prepared a lot of words to persuade Lin Chen, but he didn't expect Lin Chen to believe it like this. Seeing this, Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm not a fool, and this matter is not good for Taihang Heavy Industry at all, no matter from which aspect Speaking of it, it's all stinky chess moves, I don't think Mr. Cui is such an idiot, so I have kept the village restrained these days, and I didn't even post the video on the Internet."

Cui Jinming said gratefully, "Mr. Lin is really good, and I also thank Mr. Lin for his trust in us. You are right, which idiot would play this kind of stinky chess? But Mr. Lin doesn't play the video, I am afraid that the person who will do it behind the scenes immediately I can't stand it anymore."

Lin Chen asked Cui Jinming to sit down, poured him a cup of tea, and said, "President Cui, there is nothing I can do to help you."

"No, I can only ask Mr. Lin for help in this matter!" Cui Jinming said without hesitation.
