Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain
Chapter 618 Poor Man
"My mother and my father-in-law decided on the date, and it's set on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month! I'll arrange for someone to pick you up in advance to attend the wedding!" Yue Feng said with a smile.
"We must go to my second nephew's wedding!" The eldest uncle and the second uncle said it almost in unison.
"Hey, my family also built a new house in the spring! It's already been cleaned up and the furniture and everything is ready! After we get married, we'll live in the new house! I just heard from my eldest uncle that your family also built a new house?" Yue Feng asked casually.
The second uncle scratched his head and said, "Well, we built three tiled houses! But we haven't finished cleaning them yet! There's a lot to do this year, so we're a little short of things!"
Yue Feng saw the uneasiness in his second uncle's eyes at a glance, and immediately said, "My eldest uncle just told me, don't worry, I'm not here to collect your debts. We can talk about it when we have more money at home!"
"This is so inappropriate. You guys came here last year and helped our family a lot. You're getting married in a few days, so you're going to have to spend a lot of money!
I still have a copper gallbladder at home. I'll find a place to sell it later, and I should be able to raise some money!"
Seeing his second uncle counting money on his fingers, Yue Feng felt distressed again.
My grandmother's family has a very good tradition. No matter whether it is my uncle or my aunt, none of them are the kind of people who don't pay back the money they owe. The copper gallbladder was just brought back not long ago, and it is definitely not worth selling it now, but even so, he has to pay back the money to his nephew first. Just from this point, we can see that my second uncle is absolutely open-minded.
Yue Feng shook his head and said, "I told you, our family is not short of money. Let's make our family life better first, and then talk about other things. This amount is not worth mentioning!
I haven't had time to report to you yet. A few days ago, I opened a restaurant in the city. Currently, my brother and my eldest sister-in-law are helping me run the store. Business is good and we are making a lot of money!"
"Xiao Feng opened a restaurant?"
When my grandma heard this, she was quite surprised. After all, in the eyes of the older generation, restaurants are businesses that are run by the state and are not allowed to be run by private individuals.
Yue Feng nodded and said, "A friend of mine helped me get a business license, which was the first batch in the city. Grandma and grandpa, when I get married, you two old people can come too. I will borrow a car to take you there, and it will take at most half a day!
After you finish your wedding, stay at my house for a few more days. Then I’ll take you to my restaurant to taste the cooking skills of my chef!”
"It takes half a day to get there? Then your grandpa and I have to go and take a look!"
"Hey, that's a deal!"
……
Here, Yue Feng and his group were chatting with their relatives at home, when suddenly, Canglong, who was tied to the door, started barking.
Yue Feng was slightly startled when he heard the dog barking, and someone came to the gate of the courtyard.
"Uncle, is there someone coming?"
Uncle Meng Fanqiu immediately stood up and went out to take a look.
Soon, there was a commotion at the door. Four strong laborers carried a middle-aged man lying on the door panel, covered with a thin quilt, and carried him into my grandmother's yard.
"Li Laowai, what do you mean?"
When my second uncle saw the man lying on the door panel, his face changed immediately.
"Boss Meng, don't blame me for being so ungrateful. This opportunity is really rare. I don't want to spend my whole life lying on the bed!"
The man called Li Laowai muttered with a gloomy expression.
As soon as Yue Feng saw and heard it, he immediately realized that this should be the person who had been injured in an accident when he went into the mountains to hunt with his second uncle.
Yue Feng's brothers entered the village, riding motorcycles, carrying dogs, and carrying guns, as well as a large amount of supplies. The villagers must have seen them and spread the word.
Last year, Yue Feng brought people here and not only took care of the village tyrant Qianjia, but also helped his second uncle to form a hunting team.
This year, my mother came back to visit her parents' home with an even bigger fanfare. This guy named Li Laowai must have thought that this was a good opportunity to ask for benefits. After all, he was the victim, and with the rich nephew of the Meng family coming, he might be able to get some benefits.
Sometimes people are just so realistic. Some villagers in the village are simple and honest, while others are vicious to the core.
Second uncle's face looked unhappy. This old Li had a very big appetite. He had seen the opportunity and was going to continue squeezing oil to reap the benefits.
Yue Feng pulled his second uncle aside and asked in a low voice: "Second uncle, is this injured person the one that the eldest uncle mentioned? What is the specific situation?"
The second uncle said with a sullen face: "This Li Laowai is a piece of shit. He was not originally a member of our hunting team. His cousins followed the hunting team to do hard work, but he insisted on going up the mountain with them.
I couldn't resist and let him go. We were all from the same village, so I didn't argue with him!
As a result, this guy went to the mountain, disobeyed the command, acted alone, and chased the wild boars with a knife! As a result, he was picked by the egg bubble and broke his waist!
The injury happened before the beginning of spring. I treated him, bought medicine for him, took him to the hospital for check-ups, etc. It cost me at least five hundred yuan in total.
All the money that the family had originally prepared for building a new house was spent on him!
The diagnosis given by the hospital was lumbar injury. The lower part of the body was paralyzed and had no sensation!
I felt that, after all, we followed the hunting team up the mountain, so we gritted our teeth and did everything we should and shouldn’t do.
Not to mention being injured or disabled, even if a person dies in an accident, the compensation money is not a small amount!
Don't worry about what happened today. Since he wants to take advantage of the opportunity to continue making trouble, let's just let the old and young men watch the fun. I won't pay a dime! No matter how much this matter is, I have nothing to blame!"
After listening to his second uncle's words, Yue Feng nodded: "Okay, you handle it. If you can't handle it, I'll think of another way!"
The second uncle responded and walked up to Li Laowai and said, "Li Laowai, you are determined to blackmail our family, isn't that what you mean?"
Li Laowai tilted his neck and said, "What do you mean I am blackmailing you? I was injured when I followed the hunting team into the mountains, right? You are the leader, shouldn't you be in charge?
If you have no responsibility, why do you pay for treatment, medicine, and medical examinations? Are you, Meng Fanxue, a great saint?"
Second uncle's face instantly turned red, and he felt more disgusted than if he had eaten a fly: "Fuck, I was blind! I shouldn't have cared about you in the first place, and let you die in the ravine!"
This is just like the classic remarks made by the president of the court: Why should you help someone if you didn't hit him?
"Yeah, why didn't you let me die in the ravine? It's too late to regret now! I was injured when I went up the mountain with your hunting team. You have to take care of it if you are the boss. There is nothing wrong with this logic!"
"What do you want?" My second uncle took several deep breaths before forcing himself to calm down.
Li Laowai curled his lips and said, "Take the money. I want to go to BJ for treatment! At least one thousand yuan, not a penny less!"
When Yue Feng heard the lion open its mouth, he laughed.
Yue Feng has one thousand yuan, and if he wants to take it, he can also take out ten thousand, but he will definitely not pay this much.
The Meng family is kind and righteous, not stupid. If they succeed once in this blatant extortion, there will be endless troubles.
My second uncle was also very surprised to hear this number. What does one thousand yuan mean? Even the compensation for people who died in work injuries in the forest farm could not be so high.
Yue Feng saw that his second uncle’s face was red from holding back his anger, but he didn’t know how to deal with it, and he got angry all of a sudden.
"Xiao Tao, Xiao Wen, Xiao Wu, take this blackmailer out!"
At the command, the brothers who had been ready to take action immediately rushed out from the door.
The villagers who were carrying Li Laowai into the house wanted to stop them, but Xiao Tao pushed them and they stumbled. Xiao Tao glared at them and said, "Fuck you, are you crazy about money? You dare to come to our house to make trouble? You are tired of living. Do you really think we are easy to bully? I don't have a penny. If you dare to make trouble again, I will shoot you with a gun, you son of a bitch!"
Xiao Tao and Xiao Wen helped each other, carried the bed out of the yard, and threw it roughly onto the street outside the gate.
Last year, many members of the Qian family came to our house to fight. Many people still remember Xiao Tao's performance of fighting against many people alone.
Now Li Laowai, who came to cause trouble, was thrown out, and none of the clan members and villagers dared to say anything bad.
After sending the people away, Xiao Tao closed the gate of the yard.
"Second uncle, what's the point of talking to this scoundrel! If he comes in again, I'll deal with him! Asking for a thousand yuan just opened his mouth, it's blinding his heart!!" Xiao Tao said in a relaxed tone.
The second uncle sighed: "Oh! This is difficult to handle!"
Yue Feng said: "It's not difficult! Let him make trouble first! If we want to solve it, the village has to step in!
This Li Laowai just saw us coming and wanted to cause trouble and get some benefits! Let's go into the house, Second Uncle!"
My second uncle nodded and followed me into the north room.
The originally very good atmosphere in the room became much more depressing in an instant because of this matter of Li Laowai.
Both my grandma and grandpa are kind-hearted people, which is why my second uncle spent so much money to provide the other party with treatment and recovery.
But what I got in return was not gratitude, but even worse.
To put it bluntly, it’s not the weaker one who is right.
Li Laowai's words and actions perfectly illustrate the saying that there must be something hateful about pitiful people.
Li Laowai, who was thrown out of the yard, was stunned when he saw that all the Meng family members had gone into the house and closed the yard door. A few seconds later, he immediately started howling at the top of his voice in the street.
"Fellow villagers, please come and judge! The Meng family is bullying others unreasonably by relying on their numbers!
Meng Fanxue was the leader of the hunting team. I worked for him and drove the cart. Even when I got injured, he didn't care about me!
Is there any justice in the world? They just carried me out of the yard and threw me on the ground. My whole body hurts!"
Anyway, he had no choice but to throw his old face into the mix. Li Laowai was crying and snotting, as if he had really suffered a lot of losses and injustices.
The fact that Yue Feng and his group entered the village was already the focus of the village news. After all, three-wheeled motorcycles were rarer than cars.
After hearing the howl, half of the villagers in the back street came out to watch the fun.
A paraplegic man was lying on the door panel in the middle of winter, crying and sobbing. The scene was really heartbreaking. Many villagers who did not know the truth went to the village office to call for the secretary.
In this era, the lower-class people usually go to the organization for help when they have problems. The village secretary is the judge, and most matters of justice are resolved through consultation at the village level.
Soon, Li Wenzhong, the village secretary of Daliushutun, arrived at the scene.
"Li Laowai, what the hell are you doing in the street?"
Li Wenzhong saw Li Laowai howling there and asked in a serious tone.
When Li Laowai saw the village cadres, he cried out with snot and tears: "Secretary Li, you have to make the decision for me!
Meng Fanxue took us into the mountains to hunt. I was attacked by a wild boar and my waist was broken, becoming a paraplegic. He gave me a little money and sent me away!
Now when I ask him for money for medical treatment, he asks his young and strong nephews to throw me out of the yard! I have a headache and pain all over my body!!”
Li Wenzhong had heard about Li Laowai getting injured while climbing the mountain, but the two parties had previously negotiated and resolved the issue privately, and the issue was not brought to the table through the village office for a public resolution, so Li Wenzhong did not interfere in the matter.
Something happened in the spring, and now it's almost the end of the year, it didn't become a big deal, but now it has become a big deal.
In addition, Li Laowai had a bad reputation in the village and had a history of stealing and doing other things.
From a notarization perspective, Li Wenzhong naturally felt that it was Li Laowai who was causing trouble, so his tone and attitude were a bit bad.
"Stop howling. Didn't you and Fan Xue have already discussed the matter privately? It's been almost a year. Why are you making a fuss again?"
"My waist is broken and my legs are numb. I need to go to BJ to get my legs treated! Meng Fanxue not only refused to pay me, but also threw me out of the yard!
He relied on his nephews' abilities to bully a paraplegic like me! ! "
Li Laowai was still the same, repeating the same few words over and over again.
"Stop howling! Carry him to the village office! I'll go to the Meng family to call people and deal with this matter face to face together!" Li Wenzhong called out and then went to knock on the Meng family's gate.
"Is Fan Xue and Fan Qiu at home? I am Li Wenzhong. No matter what happened to Li Laowai, there must be an explanation. Do you want to deal with it? If so, come to the village office and deal with it face to face!"
The Meng family had been paying attention to the situation outside. When they heard that the old secretary was alarmed, they immediately opened the gate.
"Secretary Li!" my second uncle greeted him.
"Don't just stand there, there has to be an explanation for this matter. Get your things ready and go to the village office!
The village has mediated. If Li Laowai is still dissatisfied, let him go to the commune to make trouble!"
The second uncle and the eldest uncle looked at each other and gritted their teeth: "Okay! I'll go over there!"
Li Wenzhong did not enter the house, but turned and left.
My second uncle also went out and returned to his home. There are receipts and records for prescription medicine, examinations, and hospitalization, which are all evidence.
Now, they would definitely not be able to have a peaceful dinner. Yue Feng exchanged glances with a few of his friends, and they all followed him to the village office.
After Li Laowai's commotion, the village office was surrounded by a crowd of onlookers. After my second uncle went home and got various paper evidence, he arranged for someone to call all the members of the hunting team to the village office.
When there is a standoff at the village office, evidence must be required, which is basically similar to the nature of a grassroots court. If things get out of hand, we must always be prepared.
In the room, Li Laowai was lying on the bed, crying and making a fuss. The other people arrived soon.
Yue Feng followed his second uncle into the house.
"Okay, everyone is here. Li Laowai, if you have any grievances or opinions, speak them out in front of all the masters now!"
Li Wenzhong's eyes passed across Yue Feng's face and finally fell on Li Laowai.
Li Laowai: "I was injured when I followed Meng Fan and his hunting team into the mountains to hunt. At that time..."
This grandson also knew that he was not an official member, so he just brushed over the details and tried to portray himself as a victim.
Before he could finish his words, his second uncle got angry.
"Li Laowai, you are talking bullshit. All the members of our hunting team are outside. Are you from our hunting team? You just followed others and came here shamelessly!" (End of this chapter)
