Chapter 1842: The Hong Family Is Too Arrogant
"This road looks like the main line in Suiyang City. Why is the road so bad? Why has no one renovated it and taken a rest?" Lin Tian asked curiously.
"Hey! You've seen this broken road, that's it, it can't be repaired!"
“There have been several rounds of leaders in the city, and the first thing each one did was to repair this road, but the result was, hum!”
As soon as Lin Tian mentioned this, the driver's tone became even more unhappy.
Lin Tian always felt that there was something hidden in the driver's words, as if there was something hidden in it that he couldn't tell.
"Master, let me ask you, what kind of family is the Hong family in Suiyang City?" Lin Tian thought about another question and asked.
"Damn it! The Hong family is just a bunch of bandits and bullies, they eat everything inside and out, and they will be struck by lightning sooner or later!"
This time, after hearing Lin Tian's words, the driver's reaction was even greater, and he slapped the steering wheel and cursed.
Lin Tian immediately felt interesting when he heard this, knowing that the driver must know many things that were not known to outsiders.
After all, the Internet is not omnipotent. Lin Tian could find very limited information about the Hong family on the Internet, which was almost equivalent to no gain.
Judging from Lin Tian's experience, such families are either really low-key, or they are heinous and hire a large number of trolls online to delete any negative comments they see.
Now it seems that the Hong family in Suiyang City must belong to the second type!
After all, most taxi drivers in a city are locals, and they naturally know the most about the city.
Lin Tian leaned forward slightly, waiting for the driver to continue talking, but the driver just cursed and stopped talking. He just looked at the blocked road ahead and sighed.
"Master, what's going on with the Hong family?" Lin Tian had no choice but to continue asking.
"Who are you? What do you want to ask about this?" The driver turned to look at Lin Tian with a wary look. Lin Tian saw anger and fear in his eyes at the same time.
"It's nothing. I'm a newspaper reporter, and I just came to Suiyang City to see a friend. He mentioned the Hong family to me on the phone before, saying that he had provoked the other party recently, and his tone seemed to be quite scared."
"I happened to be on a business trip these days and passed by Suiyang City, so I took the opportunity to come and see him."
"I just remembered the Hong family he mentioned, so I just asked casually. If there is any inconvenience, it's okay if you don't tell me." Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders and started telling lies without blushing or heartbeat. of.
Perhaps from Lin Tian's obviously not local accent, or from his frank eyes, the driver believed what Lin Tian said.
Lin Tian was originally afraid that he wouldn't believe him, so he planned to take out the press pass that Dragon Emperor had prepared for him.
Dragon Emperor not only gave him a new ID card, but also gave him a new identity comprehensively, as a traveling reporter for a newspaper.
"Your friend is probably gone." The driver took a deep look at Lin Tian, turned his head and looked ahead and said.
"Huh? Why do you say that? It's my first time in Suiyang City and I don't understand anything. Please tell me, master." Lin Tian looked anxious and listened attentively, waiting for what the driver would say behind him.
"Alas!" The driver sighed, took out a pack of cigarettes, lit one for himself, and took a puff before continuing: "You must be from out of town, and the city you live in is quite far away from here. ”
"Because anyone who is a local or a person from the surrounding cities knows what kind of people the Hong family is."
"Do you know why so many people want to correct this broken road but ultimately fail? Let me tell you, it's because of the Hong family!"
"Oh? Why is that? The Hong family is so powerful that they even have to take care of such things. Whether they build roads or not has nothing to do with them." Lin Tian asked puzzledly.
"Young man, you don't know something. Next to this road is a private road built with money from the Hong family. It is spacious and elegant."
"Compared with that road here,
There is definitely one sky and one underground, very easy to walk. "
"But the Hong family will not give it to you for free. The reason why they bought all the rights to use and manage that road is to encircle it and charge a fee."
"That street is right next to the main city line, so it is naturally very important and convenient."
"Not only do all vehicles traveling on that road have to pay, but parking fees for parking on that street and all the shops on both sides also have to pay," the driver said.
"They also bought those shops?" Lin Tian asked. If so, they are only collecting rent, and collecting money is natural.
"Beep beep beep!"
The driver was about to speak when he heard the urging horn of a vehicle from behind. It turned out that the road was open.
The driver immediately put out the cigarette butt and threw it into the ashtray in the car. While starting the car, he continued:
"Of course not. They are just playing tricks and using loopholes to collect money. We all take care of that money as protection fees."
"Because at the beginning, everyone protested against this practice. Some shops did not pay as required. Those shops that did not pay were robbed that night, without exception."
"The police station couldn't find anything at all. Those people had no choice but to admit their defeat. They were all afraid of the Hong family's methods. No one would dare to refuse to pay in the future."
Lin Tian nodded. This was of a very bad nature. The Hong family was too overbearing.
"The Hong family is so domineering, so no one can control it?" Lin Tian asked.
"Whether it is the leaders of Suiyang City or some other families, they have all thought of this, but in the end they all ended up in a miserable defeat."
"The Hong family is so powerful that they are not afraid of being so arrogant. Everyone says that there are people above them to protect them. There are all kinds of specific things, but they are all rumors and cannot be taken seriously." The driver lowered his voice a few points when he said this.
Then, along the way, the driver completely relaxed and opened up to Lin Tian.
After knowing that Lin Tian was a foreigner and a reporter, the driver was relieved and talked about a lot of evil things done by the Hong family in the local area.
The driver became more and more excited as he spoke, and it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with the Hong family.
According to him, as long as people in Suiyang City, except for those who can get benefits from them, there is no one who doesn't hate the Hong family.
Unknowingly, the car has arrived at the door of the hotel, and Lin Tian is still thinking about what the driver said along the way.
According to the information currently obtained, it can be summarized that the Hong family is really full of evil. Lin Tian decided to eradicate it regardless of whether it is related to the things he wants to deal with.
Among them, there are only two things that Lin Tian is more concerned about.
One is what is the power behind the Hong family, is it the Jiang family who is making trouble again?
The other is that the driver said that one of the reasons why Suiyang City hates the Hong family so much is because they have recently caused large-scale pollution to the surrounding environment.
