Chapter 382: Race Against Time!

Yang Tiezhu's current prestige in the village is not only due to his own generosity, but more importantly, the support of the village chief.

The village chief of Kaoshan Village is named Yang Zhuangyong. He is over 70 years old and a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War.

Old village chief Yang has been alone in his life, never married, and childless. He has always treated Yang Tiezhu as his own child.

Originally, the village elected Yang Tiezhu as the village chief, and the old village chief was willing to give up his seat to Yang Tiezhu, but Yang Tiezhu refused.

He also said that over the years, the entire village has become accustomed to calling him the old village chief. The entire village is under the care of the old village chief and does not want the old village chief to fade out of the sight of the villagers.

Although Kaoshan Village is only a small village, with a population of only a few hundred families at its peak, it has a cohesion of blood ties, and everyone is like a big, happy family.

The old village chief is childless and kind-hearted. Many people plan to provide for the village chief in his old age. All the children in the village call the village chief grandpa, so the old man does not feel so lonely.

Yang Tiezhu was brought up almost single-handedly by the old village chief, and naturally he has the highest prestige in the village. If Li Yi can find Yang Tiezhu and convince him, the feasibility of this matter is very high!

As long as Yang Tiezhu tells the villagers to leave the village, the villagers will definitely leave even if they have complaints in their hearts!

They have such trust in Yang Tiezhu!

Li Yi turned around and walked towards Yang Tiezhu's home, ignoring the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village.

It’s just a meeting, it can be held at any time, but the mudslide won’t be waiting for you!

Time is too tight, Li Yi must start racing against time!

Calculating from now on, it will be an hour at the latest. Li Yi gave himself an hour to do the work between the villagers and Yang Tiezhu!

Now the light rain gradually slapped on Li Yi's face, and Li Yi suddenly felt a little irritable.

I don’t even know how I arrived at the door of Yang Tiezhu’s house. It was like he was already standing here in a trance!

After knocking on the wooden door, it was quickly opened. Yang Tiezhu's daughter stood timidly at the door of the wooden door, looking at Li Yi without saying a word.

Li Yi lowered his head and touched the little girl's head, and then asked in a deep voice: "Where is your father?"

The little girl was stunned for a moment, and then pointed to the room. She felt very trusting in Li Yi, a seemingly unfamiliar person. She may have sensed Li Yi's kindness, so she was not too vigilant.

Li Yi smiled again and touched the little girl's head and said, "Don't open the door to strangers casually in the future!"

The little girl nodded, and then Li Yi closed the door and walked into the room.

Yang Tiezhu is sitting on the hospital bed, but he is not idle. He is counting the money left at home.

Yang Tiezhu stored everything at home in a small old lunch box. When he saw Li Yi coming, he was not surprised, but just smiled a little sheepishly.

"The conditions at home are relatively simple, and I don't have much money left. I only have a little over a hundred yuan. This money should be able to buy a lot of wheat. We will see when the time comes..."

Li Yi smiled and said: "Brother Yang, don't worry about the wheat matter. I want to ask you for help with something!"

When Yang Tiezhu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said curiously: "If you have anything to do, boss, just tell me!"

Li Yi said in a deep voice: "Can you ask all the villagers to pack their things and evacuate as soon as possible?"

Yang Tiezhu was about to nod his head to express that there was no problem, but then he was stunned!

"What did you say? Little boss, did I hear you correctly? Do you want us to leave?"

Li Yi said with a serious face: "The current situation is about to be out of control! If I guessed correctly, there will be a mudslide on the mountain soon! There is no need to delay!"

Li Yi's tone definitely didn't sound like he was joking, but Yang Tiezhu couldn't just trust Li Yi's judgment!

After all, if Yang Tiezhu speaks and all the villagers leave the village, wouldn't that be a waste of money and money?

How can I explain to the villagers if my worries are in vain?

"Boss... what do you want me to say? We have been here for such a long time and we have never heard of any mudslides!"

Then Yang Tiezhu said again: "If I really listened to you, I would have caused everyone a lot of trouble in vain. It's hard to explain!"

Li Yi sighed and said earnestly: "It's too late to explain so much now. Anyway, you must listen to me! You can't stay here for long! The towns closest to us will be in danger! Do you think I would make such a joke with you? ?”

"And you have to believe in my major, because I studied geology in college! I can tell if there will be a mudslide on the mountain at a glance!"

In order to win Yang Tiezhu's trust, Li Yi could only come up with such a reason.

Hearing Li Yi's very sincere explanation, Yang Tiezhu was a little shaken in his heart. What to do if a mudslide really occurs, it will cost lives!

But if it didn’t happen, I wouldn’t be able to explain it to everyone directly.

So, should we believe Li Yi's words? This puts Yang Tiezhu in a dilemma?

"boss"

"Stop calling me boss, just call me Brother Li, or Mr. Li!"

"Brother Li, how sure are you that a mudslide will occur?"

"Eighty percent, or even higher!"

Hearing Li Yi's words, Yang Tiezhu fell into deep thought.

Although Li Yi is young, he is definitely a boss from his temperament, which Yang Tiezhu can see.

Although Yang Tiezhu is just an ordinary person, he has met many people because of selling herbs.

So he is a person who has really met big bosses, and of course he has also met those fake bosses, so he thinks he is very good at judging people!

The confident temperament of Li Yi is not something that can be pretended casually, that is the temperament of a real superior!

Of course, Yang Tiezhu does not have the concept of superiors in his mind, but he knows that when he sees the bosses, the aura exuded by those bosses can make people dare not speak!

However, Li Yi is such a person!

Most of these people will not deal with poor people like them, let alone make fun of them, the time of big bosses is very precious!

But if I really believe this boss, and there is no mudslide afterwards, what should I do?

It would be strange if the villagers in the village didn't scold me to death, and they might even stab me in the back!

This decision is difficult to make. For Yang Tiezhu, he now feels like he is being roasted on a fire!

Li Yi said in a deep voice: "According to my status and position, I don't need to take risks with you, and there is no need to convince you."

"I just told you my speculation. I have said everything I said. Whether you believe me or not is your business, brother Yang. Although I, Li Yi, have a kind heart, I am not a fool! If you don't leave, I will leave in an hour!"

Li Yi's words are very clear. I have told you that there will be mudslides here. Whether you believe me or not is your business. I will not be stupid enough to throw my life away with you!

Yang Tiezhu's mind was racing, and then he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Little boss, I believe you! I will go and tell the villagers now!"

Then, Yang Tiezhu stood up from the bed, held the wall, and walked towards the door!

Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and immediately followed!
