Knowing he couldn't avoid what was happening today, Yan Bugui decided to bite the bullet and face it head-on.

He chuckled at everyone and said gently.

"Everyone has misunderstood."

Things are not as you imagine.

Old Li and I had heard that grain prices had gone up.

To find out the situation, I went to the grain store.

We just wanted to help everyone explore the area; we really didn't mean anything by it.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

Besides, an old man said that grain prices will come down soon, so there's no need to worry.

Li Shengli trembled slightly as he listened to these words.

When it comes to blatantly lying, you have to look to Yan Bugui.

Given the magnitude of the price increase, even he himself didn't believe it could come down.

Unexpectedly, Yan Bugui spoke with such seriousness that it seemed like the truth.

"fart!

The grain stores are out of food today, and you still dare to talk nonsense!

"If you two hadn't abandoned everyone and rushed over there, we could have bought food!"

"It's all because of those two that no one in the yard was able to buy any grain!"

If the farm runs out of food in the future, you'll be held responsible.

If each family could buy grain, they would at most curse Yan Bugui and Li Shengli for being dishonest.

But now everyone is empty-handed, they have nothing left but a pervasive and festering sense of panic.

As a result, the conflict intensified, and all the blame was placed on Yan Bugui and Li Shengli.

"Everyone, let us explain."

We never expected things to turn out this way.

When we arrived at the grain store, grain purchases had already been rationed.

We didn't manage to buy much food either.

"It's not entirely our fault."

Lee Seungri explained with a bitter face.

They are not the cause of the rising food prices; they are also victims and cannot bear such a heavy responsibility.

"Stop talking nonsense, I propose that those two managers be removed from their positions."

Then confiscate the grain they bought to compensate everyone for their losses.

What do you all think?

Liu Haizhong started to make trouble.

Five years is too long; he couldn't wait any longer.

Now we must bring down Yan Bugui and Li Shengli and take over the position of the manager.

"Okay, since no one objects."

"Then let's all go together and take down those two bastards first."

Before his neighbors could react, Liu Haizhong took the lead in issuing orders.

They attempted to exploit the anger of their neighbors to completely suppress Yan Bugui and Li Shengli.

Chapter 98 Liu Haizhong, repeatedly defeated

"Stop it all!

I'd like to see who dares to make a move!

He Daqing shouted sharply, stopping everyone in their tracks.

"The Qing Dynasty, you..."

Yan Bugui and Li Shengli both looked at He Daqing, never expecting him to lend a helping hand at such a crucial moment.

"Grandpa, what do you mean by this?"

Are we going to protect these two scabs and go against the rest of the community?

Liu Haizhong frowned and asked in an unfriendly tone.

They were just one step away from ousting Yan Bugui and Li Shengli from power.

Liu Haizhong will never give up, even if it means going up against He Daqing.

What does it mean to go against the majority?

Liu Haizhong, can you represent everyone in the department by yourself?!

He Daqing stared at Liu Haizhong and asked coldly.

"Everyone, stand back!"

He Daqing unleashed a powerful aura that intimidated everyone, forcing them to retreat repeatedly.

Minor disturbances in the courtyard are no big deal, but if a mass robbery were to occur in broad daylight, He Daqing could not ignore it.

If we let Liu Haizhong incite people to rob us today, who knows, someone might try to rob the He family tomorrow.

Therefore, this unhealthy trend must be nipped in the bud.

"The two of us were the managers chosen by the courtyard."

If you do a good job, everyone can continue to support you; if you do a bad job, everyone can dismiss you.

However, some things need to be clarified.

Our duties are to prevent spies and mediate neighborhood disputes.

Taking care of the people in the nursing home on a daily basis is an act of generosity, not a fulfillment of one's duty.

We have no obligation to clean up your messes.

Everyone here is in charge, and each of us makes a living through our own abilities.

If things don't go well, then you have to blame yourself.

Don't try to pin everything on us.

We didn't accept any of your gifts!

Upon hearing this, the neighbor's initial anger suddenly subsided.

"That's right!

The two of us went to buy grain without reminding the others, which was a mistake.

We apologize here.

If any family encounters difficulties in the future, we can easily contribute a few ounces or a pound of grain.

However, we won't allow blatant robbery.

Yan Bugui and his companion immediately joined forces with He Daqing.

The grain was purchased at a high price and with great difficulty.

If it wasn't lost outside, how could it be lost at home?

Seeing that the three men in charge were adamant, the neighbors in the courtyard all began to back down.

Each household still has some surplus food, and they are not in a situation where they will go hungry anytime soon.

There's no need to fight someone right now.

Looking at his timid teammates around him, Liu Haizhong felt resentful and indignant.

A bunch of useless people, scared by just a few words.

The arrow is on the string and must be released; others may retreat, but he cannot.

"This matter cannot end like this!"

Yan Bugui and Li Shengli must pay the price.

People who don't care about the collective are not qualified to be in charge.

I propose that they be dismissed from their posts and a new head of the household be elected!

Taking advantage of the damage to Yan Bugui and Li Shengli's reputations, Liu Haizhong launched another offensive.

"Liu Haizhong, the steward's term is five years, and we've only been in office for a few days."

We haven't made any major mistakes, so how can we be dismissed so easily?

Besides, the situation outside is chaotic, and everyone in the compound should unite and find a way to overcome the difficulties together.

Internal strife only benefits outsiders.

Your behavior of stirring up conflict is dangerous.

Yan Bugui did not back down at all and directly confronted Liu Haizhong.

Now that they are disliked, they cannot give up their position as the head steward.

With the status of the steward, he could also curry favor with He Daqing.

Once they are demoted, they will surely be purged when Liu Haizhong comes to power.

"That's right, everyone must not fall for the tricks of bangs."

Li Shengli hurriedly followed, afraid of falling behind and becoming a target.
