The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 836 Lü Zong’s Big Move

Wang Baichuan and Brother Hu, with their companions, stared dumbfounded at Li Qing as he stood there holding his cell phone, squabbling with his own chief.

Although they couldn’t hear what was being said on the other end of the phone, Li Qing’s words were truly impolite.

He berated the chief even more harshly than most people would scold their subordinates.

Wang Baichuan silently put on his clothes and beckoned to the young police officer he had brought with him. The two of them flanked Brother Hu and the others on either side and then Wang Baichuan said, "It seems I don’t need to wait for any procedures now. Obviously, this case is no longer under my jurisdiction. So, whatever hardship you experience next is on you. Their methods of handling cases are a bit rougher than ours, and we can’t just treat the case between you as a public security incident, understand?"

Brother Hu, looking utterly perplexed, shook his head and asked with a dismayed face, "Officer, are you guys having some sort of back...?"

"Back what? What exactly are you trying to say?" Wang Baichuan’s expression turned stern in an instant. "Let me tell you, although their methods are rough, everything they do is by the law. They only deal with special cases, and once they take over, it usually means big trouble, and we have no right to interfere. You should know well what you’ve done."

"But, officer, I really haven’t done anything, I’m a victim here!" Brother Hu suddenly cried out in protest.

Wang Baichuan looked Brother Hu up and down and said, "You haven’t done anything, and they still come after you? Impossible. I advise you to cooperate honestly and not to play any tricks. Otherwise, if it really comes to them dealing with you, you might never see the sunlight again in your next life."

"Officer, although I’m just a humble streamer, I do know a few things." Brother Hu suddenly found some courage and raised his voice. "Since when does someone who handles special cases run a barbecue stall in the village? I’ve never heard of such a thing."

"Not having heard of it is your ignorance. I don’t have time to explain this to you," Wang Baichuan snorted coldly and commanded, "Stand properly!"

"Fine, so you’re framing me, is that it? I’m going to sue you!" Brother Hu suddenly raised his voice, shouting indignantly.

A barbecue stall owner with a special identity?

Clearly, they had colluded to target him!

"Go ahead, suit yourself." Wang Baichuan sneered dismissively, not deigning to say much more.

He had just given a simple warning, and even this seemed to take Brother Hu’s breath away.

Li Qing finally finished his phone call, put away his cell phone, and told Wang Baichuan, "Old Wang, it’s not like I’m stealing your job, but this case really is odd. As for the misunderstanding between us earlier, how about dealing with it later?"

"What’s left to deal with? Just take care of it and it’s done. It’s your case now," Wang Baichuan grumbled discontentedly. "Ah, a higher authority is always overwhelming, now some people talk and I don’t even have the right to speak."

"Enough with that. Could you two please keep them here and make sure these little bastards don’t run off? I need to quickly clean up this mess," said Li Qing.

"We can keep an eye on them, but damn it, could you prioritize things a bit?" Wang Baichuan suddenly became unhappy.

"Everything’s a priority. With the way things are, if we don’t arrange it, it’s going to turn into chaos," Li Qing responded.

While they were talking, several vans with hazard lights flashed turned off the national highway and drove into the crowded village entrance.

Next to the barbecue stall, near the only relatively unoccupied large willow tree, the vans stopped, and a group of men and women dressed as waitstaff stepped out, along with many women draped in down jackets, their smooth, bare legs faintly visible underneath.

Li Qing looked at this imposing scene and couldn’t help but be stunned; this was likely the reinforcement from Lü Zong.

He could understand arranging for the waitstaff, but what were all these women here for?

He was about to step forward and inquire what was happening when he saw Brother Gong coming over with several waiters, dragging a complete set of sound equipment.

"Qingzi, Lü Zong asked me to come and save the day for you!" Brother Gong squeezed through the crowd and shouted to Li Qing from a distance.

"Go to hell, I don’t need you to save my fire, you’re here to save the fire at my restaurant. Make it clear, otherwise, it can lead to misunderstandings," Li Qing laughed and cursed.

Brother Gong chuckled, "That’s what I meant all along, it’s you who thought too dirty."

After saying that, he called out to the people behind him, "Hurry up, get moving, everyone! Get to your posts, and if you delay President Li’s business, watch out because I’ll skin you alive!"

A crowd of people squeezed into the corner behind the barbecue shop, which was usually piled with miscellaneous items but was relatively spacious. They quickly organized everything neatly, set up a tent, and connected all the lights.

Then the barbecue grills and bundles of ingredients were brought in.

At the same time, the seven or eight young women wearing down jackets or overcoats finished setting up the sound equipment, squeezed into the crowd, threw off their coats, and started singing.

As they shed their outerwear, the customers lined up outside erupted in howls similar to wolves’ calls, instantly igniting the atmosphere at the scene.

Holy shit!

Li Qing was dumbstruck. Had Lü Zong brought the entire foundation of his big restaurant here?

Wasn’t this a bit too much? He just wanted some ingredients!

"Qingzi, you don’t have to worry about the rest; take a break and let me perform!" Brother Gong chuckled and said to Li Qing.

"Perform, perform, go ahead." Li Qing nodded blankly, still not sure what to say.

Lü Zong’s move was indeed a bit too overwhelming.

This was no longer just about owing someone a favor; this was... owing a big favor.

Brother Gong held the microphone high and shouted to the crowd of diners, "Ladies and gentlemen, young and old, pretty ladies and handsome guys, welcome to our store in this cold night. No matter why you have come, we at Sanhe Village will do our utmost to serve you and let you feel the scorching-hot passion of the Sanhe locals."

"Come on, let’s give the big patrons a show first!"

At his call, the seven or eight scantily clad young women squeezed seductive smiles on their faces, twisting their supple waists to the booming music, which instantly set the scene on fire.

Li Qing silently pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling that today’s event was becoming more and more surreal.

It made him feel as if he were dreaming.

These customers must be idle, and Lü Zong... must be pretty idle too.

"Qingzi, isn’t it time to get down to business now? Your place is already so hot and almost crazy," Wang Baichuan said quietly, "It seems you have nothing much to worry about, so you better take care of your business."

"Don’t rush me, don’t rush, I know what I’m doing," Li Qing said, waving his hand, "There are a few more little bastards I need to find."
