2003: The Opening Sniper Against the Financial Tycoon

The next day.

It was almost noon.

Four or five pickup trucks drove into their Huilong Village in a grand procession, and then stopped in an open space at the village entrance.

Then a dozen or so men came down quietly.

"They really came. Who is this Boss Tang?"

"That short, fat guy wearing sunglasses."

From Qin Hanyang's maternal grandmother's house, one could see the entrance to the village, and he and Wang Pengfei thus took in the every move of this group of people.

He also discovered that even his father's old classmate, "Manager Luo," was among them.

Just then, a middle-aged man wearing a straw hat and smoking a pipe hurriedly ran past the path in front of their courtyard.

The direction was exactly where Tang Wanxin and others were located at the village entrance.

Wang Pengfei exclaimed in surprise, "Zhao Jianmin, you son of a bitch, where are you running to so fast?"

"We have distinguished guests! I got a call from above, asking me to go and receive them!"

The middle-aged man was their village chief, and he didn't even turn his head at that moment.

Once past, he adopted a bowing and scraping posture, pointing to the mountain hollow behind him, as if he were leading the way.

Upon seeing this scene from a distance, Wang Pengfei's expression suddenly turned somewhat serious.

Because he discovered that one of the people in the group had actually pulled out a hunting rifle from the back seat of the car!

It's clear that they've established connections with local authorities!

If someone from out of town receives this kind of treatment, it's something that not everyone can do.

"Goodness, who exactly is this Boss Tang you're talking about? His background is probably not simple."

"Nothing special, his net worth is only a few hundred billion. He used to have that much, but now he's probably in debt for several hundred billion."

"What? Several...hundreds of billions?"

"Yes, he's probably on par with the richest man in China."

I had some reservations before.

It was because they were afraid that Wang Pengfei wouldn't have the guts to make a move.

But now that things have gone this far, out of respect for his uncle and to avoid giving away any clues in the subsequent plans, it's time for Qin Hanyang to reveal all the information.

Therefore, Tang Wanxin's current financial difficulties were explained and analyzed in detail to Wang Pengfei.

"You mean... this Mr. Tang is now heavily in debt, imprisoned, and robbing Peter to pay Paul?"

"..."

Qin Hanyang was speechless for a moment after being hit with three consecutive idioms.

Wang Pengfei added, "Even in such a terrible situation, they still have the mood to hunt. These big bosses have such a good attitude, which is something I should learn from."

As they were talking.

On the other side, village chief Zhao Jianmin accepted the two hundred yuan for guiding the way and led Tang Wanxin and others to set off into the mountains.

"Boss, in these twelve gullies, there are at least two or three litters of wild boars weighing two or three hundred pounds each! There are also some larger ones, weighing four or five hundred pounds each. They've stepped into steel traps before, but they still run away very fast, and no one has caught them yet."

He explained things as he led the way.

Tang Wanxin, who was in the lead, seemed quite interested.

As a native of Jiangcheng, he had an innate desire to conquer these wild animals, and he asked Zhao Jianmin:

"I heard there are rumors in your province that there are still South China tigers living deep in the mountains and forests?"

These days, the protection and rescue of endangered species is all the rage.

In response, CCTV produced several related documentaries, which sparked widespread discussion among the public.

In the Sichuan-Chongqing region, wild giant pandas can even be seen occasionally.

But Zhao Jianmin wasn't the type to flatter him, so he told the truth: "Nonsense, that thing has long been extinct. In fact, even wild boars are hard to find... but there are still quite a few pheasants, rabbits, and wild deer."

"Let's see if we're lucky enough to find some good stuff today."

Tang Wanxin didn't mind.

He enjoys more the feeling of pulling the trigger and hunting his prey.

This allowed him to temporarily dispel some of the gloom weighing on his mind.

Tang Wanxin, behind his sunglasses, was comforting himself like this when a simple, honest laugh suddenly reached his ears:

"Hehehe~ Last year, disaster is coming!"

Hearing those words, he was startled and looked up abruptly.

All they could see was a man sitting on a stone platform, looking rather foolish, repeating the same words to himself at the group of people.

"What did he say? What do you mean, 'last year'?"

Tang Wanxin had actually heard it clearly, but still hoping for the best, he asked the village chief Zhao Jianmin to translate it for him quickly.

"You son of a bitch, get lost, don't scare people!"

Upon hearing his boss's outburst and his angry rebuke of Bova, Zhao Jianmin quickly smiled and explained, "This kid is a simpleton, he talks nonsense all day long. I kicked him twice before, he was probably cursing me!"

"The final year...disaster is imminent..."

Tang Wanxin repeated it to himself, his face deathly pale.

He didn't believe Zhao Jianmin's story at all.

Because he could clearly see that this so-called "fool" was obviously talking to him!

"Call him over and ask him."

Despite his shouts, Tang Wanxin's men quickly stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and forcefully "lifted" him in front of him.

Tang Wanxin asked, "Who taught you that?"

"Hehehe..."

Polona was still struggling and had forgotten her lines.

But Tang Wanxin was not going to let it go, and at this moment, Supervisor Luo, who was accompanying him from the local area, unexpectedly stepped forward.

Seeing that Polona was an easy target, he slapped her twice across the face in the blink of an eye.

"Slap! Slap!"

Polona was immediately slapped until her face turned bright red, with several clear finger marks on it.

After a two-second pause, she burst into tears.

"Hey... Boss, why are you arguing with a simpleton?"

Upon seeing this, Zhao Jianmin immediately stepped in front of Bova.

No matter what, even if Bova is stupid, she is still from the same village as him. If Zhao Jianmin does nothing after being beaten in front of him, and if other villagers find out, they will talk behind his back!

Tang Wanxin felt increasingly terrified.

Over the past two years, the Delong Group has faced a major crisis, but he has continued to bear immense inner pressure and take constant measures to save himself.

But he was also a superstitious person.

When he was 30, he met a fortune teller who told him that his career would be booming, but at the age of 40, everything would be ruined.

This "ominous prophecy" has recently shown signs of coming true, which is causing him great panic.

And now, he has only one year left until he turns forty.

And here I am, in this godforsaken southern countryside, stumbling upon the ramblings of this idiot.

Could it be that God is making this prophecy come true?

At this moment, Tang Wanxin even lost his boss-like demeanor, personally stepping forward to grab Bova by the collar, and said viciously:

"Tell me! Who told you all this?"

Polona felt a sharp pain and suddenly fought back.

He mustered his strength and pushed Tang Wanxin away, then ran backward in a panic.

Although his IQ is at the level of a seven or eight-year-old, he is actually a young adult in his early thirties!

She even helps with farm work on weekdays!

The push was quite forceful.

Tang Wanxin was not paying attention and fell to the ground with a thud. The people around him quickly stepped forward to help him up.

"Are you alright, Mr. Tang?"

"Quick, catch up with him!"

Tang Wanxin didn't bother to explain anything. He got up without even brushing the dust off his backside and jogged after them.

When they caught up again, they arrived at an old house.

The perpetrator from earlier, Bova, is hiding next to Wang Pengfei.

Wang Pengfei had changed his clothes at some point, now wearing a blue Taoist robe and round-toed cloth shoes, and looked at Tang Wanxin and the others who were chasing after him outside the door.

"Dear esteemed guests, what brings you here?"
