Chapter 25: Poor Mountains and Bad Waters Give Rise to Unruly People
Liao Peng was stunned by Lin Shi's question.
He really hadn't asked about it.
Liao Peng was also a smooth-talking person. When Lin Shi asked this question, he immediately thought of something and took out his mobile phone to call the Taoist priest.
Thirty minutes later, Lin Shi, Liao Peng, and the fat Taoist priest were sitting in a restaurant.
The fat Taoist priest stuffed meat into his mouth and said vaguely:
"This is what happened. I didn't mean to hide it. I'm really short of money recently."
After saying that, he looked at Lin Shi with a guilty look.
Lin Shi's face was calm, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
It turned out that the Taoist priest bought the land five years ago.
According to him, he wanted to find a Feng Shui treasure land to build a Taoist temple, so he took a fancy to that hilltop.
He first spent a lot of money to build a cement road, and then built a Taoist temple. Everything went smoothly in the middle. The fat Taoist priest originally thought that he would live in this Taoist temple.
Unexpectedly, not long after the temple was built, villagers from the village at the foot of the mountain came to his temple with a few people.
They said that the dragon vein of their village was under the mountain, and that the Taoist temple of the fat Taoist priest was suppressing their dragon vein.
This piece of land was originally taken from the villagers, and when he took it, the fat Taoist priest had made it clear that he wanted to build a Taoist temple.
At that time, the villager did not say that a Taoist temple could not be built on this mountain.
No one stopped it during the construction process.
It happened that the Taoist temple was already built, and then they came out to make trouble.
The construction of the Taoist temple cost the fat Taoist priest all the money he had accumulated over the years, and it was impossible to demolish it.
At first, the fat Taoist priest ignored these villagers. His Taoist temple was legal and compliant, and it was impossible for these villagers to demolish it by force.
However, things were not as simple as he thought.
First of all, from then on, villagers guarded the cement intersection at the foot of the mountain every day to prevent any vehicles from going up the mountain.
The fat Taoist priest opened the Taoist temple to attract pilgrims. Without pilgrims, a large source of income would be lost.
Then there were some aunties who came to the gate of the Taoist temple every day to curse.
He couldn't drive them away, and he couldn't curse them. The fat Taoist priest was annoyed.
He negotiated with the villagers several times, and finally gave them 20,000 yuan, and the matter was settled.
He thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly, a month later, another villager blocked the road.
The fat Taoist priest was furious and went to the village chief to argue.
The village chief shamelessly said that the last 20,000 yuan was the fee for last month, and they would have to pay them 20,000 yuan every month in the future!
This made the fat Taoist priest very angry, and he immediately called the police.
However, when the security guard came, a village of 400 people, from 80-year-olds to three-year-old children, all stood up to testify that the money was given by the fat Taoist priest to all the villagers.
From this point, it can be seen that this is not the first time that people in this village have done this kind of thing.
The 20,000 yuan involved in extortion can be filed.
But after getting the money, each household was given 50 yuan per person.
50 yuan is not enough to file a case, and the security guard can only mediate.
After that, it got worse. Every day, several 70-80-year-old ladies came to the gate of the Taoist temple on the tricycles of the villagers and cursed on the street. They would not leave unless they were given 100 yuan each.
Call the police? If they called the police, they would cry and say that they fell in the Taoist temple and wanted the fat Taoist priest to be responsible.
The fat Taoist priest had no choice but to close the Taoist temple. He basically stayed indoors, but he couldn't stop these unruly people.
Every now and then, the Taoist temple would lose electricity and water, either because the wires were cut or the water pipes were blocked.
Needless to say, it was the villagers who did it.
Later, the fat Taoist priest spent money to buy surveillance and caught the person who cut the wires.
He sent the person to the Public Security Bureau. The fat Taoist priest thought he had won back a game, but he didn't expect that this matter was like stirring up a hornet's nest.
Since then, the villagers have become more and more aggressive.
These villagers have endless tricks. He was exhausted both mentally and physically against 400 people alone.
In the end, he had to give up the Taoist temple and find another way out.
......
After listening to the fat Taoist priest's story, Liao Peng felt angry and guilty, and even dared not look at Lin Shi:
"I'm sorry, boss, I didn't find out clearly..."
He was paid as much as Lin Shi, but he messed up the job, and he felt ashamed.
"I'll go see if there are any other suitable places. I'll consider this piece of land as my own. Boss, just deduct it from my salary."
Lin Shi looked sideways.
This made Lin Shi look at Liao Peng with a new perspective.
Although the annual salary he gave Liao Peng was 500,000, it was just a blank check.
The money hasn't been received yet, but he is willing to use an annual salary of 500,000 to make up for this mistake. This is not something that ordinary people have the courage to propose.
Lin Shi waved his hand:
"No need, just this piece of land. It's late today. Go contact a reliable construction team and start work tomorrow."
Now it was Liao Peng and the fat Taoist priest who were shocked.
"Boss, this..."
"I have a solution, just do as I say."
Lin Shi stood up and ended the dinner.
This matter actually doesn't need to be solved at all.
Looking for trouble after it's built? Will Lin Shi be afraid?
Of course not.
It will take at least two months for the shelter to be built.
With the arrival of extreme cold, these villagers can't take care of themselves.
And Lin Shi is also very experienced in dealing with evil people, just be more evil than them.
"Wait!"
The fat Taoist swallowed his mouthful of food with force, and took out a yellowed booklet from his lapel with his greasy hands.
"Little brother, you are a good person, and I did this unkindly.
I used this booklet to strengthen my body before. Now that the Taoist temple is gone, I have made up my mind and am ready to return to secular life. This booklet is not that important to me anymore.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!
I will give it to you. I always feel that you are quite pleasing to the eye. "
Lin Shi frowned and looked at the obvious oil stains on the yellowed booklet. Seeing the sincere eyes of the fat Taoist priest, he finally took it.
"Thank you. ”
After leaving the restaurant, Lin Shi went to the hotel where he was staying and spent a night drawing the design of the shelter that he had already constructed in his mind.
The upper part of this design is a semicircle, exposed on the ground, and the lower part is a square basement.
From an architectural point of view, circular buildings are conducive to reducing wind resistance and are more solid and strong.
From a heat transfer point of view, the circle is the shape with the least heat release and is more conducive to heat preservation.
People who once lived in the Arctic built semicircular snow houses for this reason.
The outermost part of the building is welded with alloys, and Lin Shi plans to use explosion-proof steel plate walls commonly used in banks for the interior, with a thickness of at least one meter. Add a layer of the most cold-resistant constant temperature material, and then the normal three-proof material.
Lin Shi plans to build a fireplace in the middle of the circular building, so that he can use the fireplace to keep warm when it is inconvenient to generate electricity.
Make a smoke exhaust pipe on the top for ventilation.
There is an electric circuit above and below the building.
Lin Shi has not considered the water problem.
The water purifier and water purification tablets he bought are not for display.
The details of the design still need to be modified by professionals.
But that's it.
After finishing the design and preparing to go to bed, Lin Shi glanced at the booklet he had put aside.
It was the one that the fat Taoist gave him.
Out of curiosity, he took it in his hand and flipped through it.
