Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1081: Chapter 1081: Unexpected Incident

How could the Sun Family agree? The old couple looked at their eldest son, who just stood there with his head down.

Sun’s mother rushed over and slapped her eldest son several times. "You’re just going to stand there and watch?"

Sun Chengmin lifted his head and glared fiercely at his mother, who was so startled that she stumbled back a few steps.

"What do you want me to do? I listened to you and persuaded my wife not to split the family. For the past few years, we’ve been working tirelessly for this household.

But what about you? You even hit my daughter. Is there anyone who doesn’t know what kind of child Cai Xia is?

Ha ha, serves you right, not even a penny less. How satisfying it is for me to hear that." After finishing, Sun Chengmin laughed heartily again.

"Comrade, lend me paper and pen. I came in such a hurry that I didn’t bring any, and the Sun Family Village is so poor that there’s not even paper and pen to be found."

Yang Hongwen said this and then began to write on the table.

He wrote very thoroughly, clearly stating that the two children would have nothing more to do with the Sun Family and Sun Chengmin in the future.

Once everything was written clearly: "Now, come and sign. We have no time to stay here. Everyone in the Sun Family must sign and fingerprint, not a single one can be missing.

And as for the eight hundred, give me four hundred now. The remaining four hundred, I’ll deduct from your brigade over two years."

Sun Chengmin laughed heartily. He came over to sign and imprint his fingerprint.

"All of you hurry up, don’t wait for me to start detailing how you’ve treated my daughter and grandchildren. By then, things won’t be so simple.

And quickly go get me the money. If there’s no four hundred, then figure out a way to get it."

Nobody from the Sun Family moved. Qi Hong was getting anxious, though he wasn’t cold or tired, he didn’t want to waste time here.

He walked over this side. "Hurry up. If you don’t sign, forget it, but not giving that money won’t cut it either.

I’m beginning to suspect you’re traitors to the country. Have them detained first, and take them away when I’m leaving."

The Sun Family children crouched inside, secretly watching, and were scared out of their wits hearing this.

The Sun Family was even more frightened. Second Son stiffened his neck, "What right do you have to say that?"

Qi Hong nodded, "Good question." He took out his credentials and put them on the table.

"You probably won’t understand, but you five, take a look. Do I have the authority for this or not?"

The five people looked at the credentials on the table, none of them dared to move, and they all nodded. "Comrade, we understand. We’ll detain them right away."

"Killing people, you’re abusing your power."

Qi Hong laughed, "You’ve used that idiom well. I can’t shoulder such an accusation, so take them all back for investigation. If I suspect, there needs to be a basis, doesn’t there? Anyone else dissatisfied? Let me explain."

A teenage kid stood there grinning, not saying anything inappropriate. But even a fool could tell it was a threat.

Those five people really had no choice. Anyone sensible could see the situation. What more could you fuss about? They wouldn’t do such things without knowing how to follow up.

They got up to grab the people, and everyone understood this was for real. They backed away, not wanting to get involved in any trouble that was truly unnecessary.

Despite the Sun Family still making a fuss, their current suspicion was a pretext nobody could challenge.

Sun Chengmin stood still, knowing this wouldn’t pass unless Yang Family, and his wife’s anger was vented.

Thinking of his affection with his wife, his eyes reddened once again. What had he done?

The Sun Family had already been tied up. "Let’s go, take them away. Never thought I’d encounter such a thing," Qi Hong sighed.

The Huang Family stood far off, no longer kicking up a fuss. Nobody had the courage for that anymore.

Sun Ercheng saw this wouldn’t do. He mustered the courage to look at Tan Shaoting.

"Comrade, let’s settle this privately."

Tan Shaoting watched his son make a scene, feeling this was really nothing.

So he completely ignored Sun Ercheng.

Sun Ercheng had no other way, so he went to Yang Hongwen’s side. "Hongwen, really, don’t make a big deal out of this. They’re all fools. Let me talk to them."

Yang Hongwen chuckled insincerely, "Now that it’s come to this, you want to talk? Alright, let’s just give Jian Jun and Cai Xia some face."

Sun Ercheng, leaning on a cane, approached the Sun Family, who were already trembling in fear.

"There’s seldom a time like this. Now is the final chance. You saw how I pleaded for you just now.

Think carefully. Solve this matter, or don’t you agree?"

Sun Chengmin didn’t speak a word. He stood, tied up with his head down off to the side.

"We’ll pay, we’ll pay. Let us go, release us quickly."

Yang Hongwen shook his head and returned near Yang Hongwen. "Hongwen, you saw the situation. Just resolve it this way." They meant that they had the capability to make sure you could never raise your head again.

Yang Hongwen nodded, turned to Qi Hong, "I can vouch for them. They’re not traitors, they are just simple local folk who’ve lived here their whole life."

Qi Hong smiled, "Great-uncle, since you’ve vouched, let’s put this matter aside for now, but don’t drag it out with them."

"Okay, got it."

Yang Hongwen turned to those five people, signaling them, and the Sun Family was released.

Sun’s mother immediately went inside, quickly coming out with a self-made wallet.

Trembling, she opened it. There was a good amount of money inside. She counted out four hundred, still leaving money in the wallet.

The Sun Family was all staring at this wallet. So the family had this much money? Yet they always cried poor.

Watching the four hundred dollars being handed over, they all felt their hearts bleed. But they still had to get fingerprinted one by one.

Yang Hongwen counted it out and placed it on the table, looking at those five people.

"Leaders, the Yang Family is also reasonable. Though they behaved like beasts and wronged our girl, we have hit them, and our anger has been vented. But we also know hitting is wrong, so we’ll offer compensation."

"Old Yang, you’re doing the right thing. No matter what the issue, violence is not the answer."

"Everyone who got hit here will have money shared among them, altogether fifteen people. Let’s say, each gets twenty-five bucks, and the rest goes to the old couple of the Sun Family."

The Sun Family didn’t expect to get any money back and all looked at Yang Hongwen with pleased surprise.

The Second Son couple were not satisfied. They weren’t hit, so they couldn’t get the money. Twenty-five per person, that’s fifty for two.

"You can have the money, but all need to sign and leave your mark. In the future, whatever happens, has nothing to do with us. To be blunt, once you take our money and sign your mark, even if you die right after, it’s got nothing to do with us.

If you don’t agree, don’t take the money. And if you try to blackmail us, we won’t acknowledge it."

It’s been made very clear. Only an idiot wouldn’t take it. After all, they’re just surface wounds, nothing serious.
