"I... I will call Liao Hu right now." Liao Long said anxiously: "I'll ask him to come back, you... you leave the safe here, you can't take this with you!"
"Call Liao Hu, and come to Li Minghua's house to fetch the safe before 8 o'clock tonight!" Lin Chuan replied.
Everyone conceded for this safe, which clearly indicated that there was something valuable inside it. Now that Li Minghua had lost the ability to work, without some material security, they might be in trouble.
"No, you can't go!" Liao Long hurriedly stood at the door.
Zhou Kai and his men were blocked by Liao Long while carrying out the safe.
"Damn, what are you standing there for!" Zhou Kai roared at this time: "Beat him up for me."
A group of people rushed over and started thrashing Liao Long. Alone and weak, Liao Long was no match for this gang, and they beat him to the ground, bloody and bruised.
Zhou Kai sneered coldly, saying: "Foolish thing, daring to oppose our Brother Chuan, you're asking for death!"
After saying this, Zhou Kai and his men immediately carried the safe and left the Liao family's house.
Lin Chuan was the last to leave, more than a dozen people from the Liao family watched him with frightened faces, everyone, young and old, huddled in the corners of the room, no one daring to speak a word, for fear of offending Lin Chuan, this devil.
Lin Chuan coldly glanced at Liao Long and said: "Remember, come and fetch the safe before 8 o'clock tonight, or bear the consequences yourself!"
After saying that, Lin Chuan walked away.
............
At Li Minghua's house, Zhou Kai and his men were panting and dumped the heavy safe onto the ground.
"Damn, it's really heavy." Zhou Kai exhaled a breath of stale air, saying: "A safe so heavy, it's exhausting like a dog."
"Hehe, I'm really interested in what's inside!" Lu Dapao grinned and laughed.
The short distance of less than a hundred meters, they carried it with great difficulty, sweating profusely.
"Brother Chuan, should we open it and take a look?" Zhou Kai excitedly looked at Lin Chuan.
Everyone has a desire to snoop, as the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat.
"Then you open it!" Lin Chuan spoke.
"Okay!" Upon hearing this, Zhou Kai was very excited.
However, when he approached the safe, he was immediately stunned because the safe in front of him had no password, how could he open it?
Zhou Kai hastily said: "Brother Chuan, there's no password!"
"That's it then." Lin Chuan smiled.
"Fuck it, forced open!" Zhou Kai gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "Who can get me a crowbar?"
"There's one in the car!" Lu Dapao quickly said: "I'll get it!"
It didn't take long for Lu Dapao to find a crowbar. Even with the crowbar, opening a safe still seemed not so easy. However, fortunately they were many and strong, and it took a huge effort, but they managed to pry open the door of the safe, and before it even fully opened, several thick gold chains fell out.
"Wow, gold chains." Everyone shouted out.
Although these gold chains were only worth a few tens of thousands of yuan, the thrill of discovering treasures was very attractive, igniting everyone's curiosity even more. They were all excited. It seemed they were even more curious about the other contents inside the safe.
"Quick, let's see what else is inside!" The crowd formed several layers around it, circling it over and over again.
Zhou Kai holding the crowbar, exerted force, and the safe suddenly burst open.
The contents inside rushed out.
Stacks of cash, plenty of gold ornaments, three property deeds, and several bankbooks with fixed deposits. The three bankbooks together showed fixed deposits amounting to 1.2 million. The gold ornaments, plus the cash inside the safe totalling over a hundred thousand, surprisingly, the Liao family's assets were quite significant.
"Wow, there's quite a lot of stuff!" Zhou Kai grinned and said.
"This gold is worth a lot of money." Lin Chuan laughed: "Keep this 120,000 cash for Li Minghua."
"No, no!" Li Minghua sitting in a wheelchair hurriedly shook his head, saying: "This is what you got, keep it yourself, I should be able to solve my issues legally, and the law will give me justice!"
Lin Chuan was slightly startled, he laughed and said: "Li Minghua, the law only gives justice to the rich, not to poor commoners like us. Understand?"
"Can't the law give me justice?" Li Minghua asked confusedly.
"That's right, therefore, we must give justice to ourselves." Lin Chuan looked at Li Minghua seriously.
Li Minghua appeared bewildered and at a loss.
"Take this!" Lin Chuan stuffed the 120,000 cash and the gold into Li Minghua's hands, then said: "Wait until the law gives you justice, then you can return this money to them. If the law cannot give you justice, consider this as the compensation they owe you. Understand?"
"Alright!" Li Minghua nodded his head.
............
After Lin Chuan and the others left, the Liao family looked at their home which had been smashed to pieces. Aside from the mess, it was just chaos, the whole house was a complete wreck, with objects scattered everywhere, along with a heap of miscellaneous items.
"Can we still live in this house?" Liao Long's mother suddenly knelt on the ground, bursting into loud sobs, "I told you not to bully the Li family, you didn't believe, and now look, retribution has come, retribution..."
His mother's crying made Liao Long feel very stifled.
"Old Liao, you better think of a solution quickly!" His wife, grabbing Liao Long by the arm, said, "Why not call the third brother back? With such a big issue, where can he escape to? The net of heaven has large meshes, but it lets nothing through!"
"Stop nagging!" Liao Long waved his hand and turned to walk outside.
Liao Long was also furious, having been beaten up earlier, his elbow dislocated, and suffering immense pain. Later, he spent thousands to hire help but to no avail. Now, things got worse as his house was smashed and even the family safe was taken away, which truly enraged him.
After stepping out of the house, Liao Long immediately called Liao Hu.
"Little brother, you need to come back." Liao Long said through gritted teeth.
"Big brother, what's going on?" Liao Hu, drunk and slurring, his voice hoarse and deep.
"It's all because of Li Minghua's matter." Liao Long said helplessly: "I don't know where that kid Li Minghua managed to find a group of people, forcing you to come back and settle this matter."
"He wants me to come back just like that?" Liao Hu retorted.
"But..." Liao Long said with a wry smile, "They threaten to tear down our house if you don't come back. Now our valuable things at home are almost destroyed, and the family's safe is also taken by them, all our possessions were in that safe. You see...if you don't come back, I'm afraid this matter will never end!"
"Damn, who are these arrogant people?" Liao Hu angrily said, "Say no more, later I'll get Shan Ji to help."
"No use asking anyone." Liao Long said helplessly: "I've already asked Shan Ji, his people were also driven away by them. It seems that the other party is somewhat influential. This is difficult to deal with."
"Damn, this is too much." Liao Hu gritted his teeth.
"It's mainly because of the homestead." Liao Long said helplessly: "They said that if you don't come back by eight o'clock tonight, you'll bear the consequences. I'm also scared of them, you better come back quickly."
There was silence on the phone for a while. Eventually, Liao Hu nodded: "Okay, I'll come back right away."
"Where are you now?" Liao Long asked.
"I'm in Jiangbei City, found a place to drink with friends!" Liao Hu said and then hung up the phone.
Eight o'clock at night.
Lin Chuan and others were having dinner at Li Minghua's house, Li Minghua's wife was cooking, and her cooking skills were quite good. A homely meal, of course, only Lin Chuan and his men were qualified to eat at the table. Zhou Kai's followers directly ordered takeout. Although it was from outside, it was good food and drinks from the street stalls.
After dinner, a group of people chatted in the yard.
"It's already eight o'clock now." At this moment, Zhou Kai spoke up.
"What should we do?" Lu Dapao asked: "Chuanzi bro, are we really going to demolish their house? That is illegal!"
"Idiot, what you are doing now isn't illegal?" Zhou Kai glared at Lu Dapao, said: "Trespassing into private homes, destroying private property. Taking other's money… Which is not illegal?"
"This..." Lu Dapao was dumbfounded.
"It's just that, now we are fighting violence with violence." Zhou Kai coldly huffed: "Against such bullies, we should not be polite to them. We should fight tooth for tooth, an eye for an eye."
"Oh!" Lu Dapao nodded his head.
Lin Chuan sat aside smoking, Zhao Zhonghai was also calm and collected.
If the Liao family would come, they would naturally come; if they don't come, he couldn't force them. If they don't show up, the items in the safe will be used to offset the debt and regarding Liao Hu, he would find a way to bring him back, even if it was from the ends of the earth.
"Chuanzi bro." Zhou Kai cleared his throat and said: "Look… it's past eight o'clock."
"No rush!" Lin Chuan shook his head.
Zhou Kai glanced at Lu Dapao and at that moment of eye contact, Lu Dapao quickly turned his head staring at the stars, his thumb incessantly picking his nose. Zhou Kai was helpless. Without Lin Chuan's orders, it seemed he couldn't make a move.
Just as Zhou Kai and the others were anxiously waiting, a group of people came from outside.
"They're here!" A few underlings who were smoking and chatting at the door hurriedly ran in.
"What's going on?" Zhou Kai curiously asked.
"People from the Liao family have come!" the underling hurriedly said.
"They dare to come?" Zhou Kai immediately grabbed the two axes on the table, his face full of anger.
