Chapter 291: Chapter 291 Meeting Deng Tiancheng

"We’re not moving!"

"It’s not that we don’t want to move, it’s that we can’t..."

The residents’ faces were full of helplessness. Their eyes, filled with helplessness, turned to Chen Dashan. Half of the residential buildings in the shantytown had been demolished, and the remaining half was dilapidated, like a dangerous building with the risk of collapse at any time. The residents were old, who wouldn’t want to live in a new, bright apartment with an elevator?

But Deng Tiancheng...

Everyone could only grit their teeth and shake their heads. They couldn’t risk their lives for a house.

Chen Dashan looked at the helpless crowd. Everyone’s face changed dramatically when they talked about Deng Tiancheng. Chen Dashan was also curious about who this Deng Tiancheng was.

Seeing Hu San on the ground clutching his stomach and struggling, Chen Dashan took a step forward.

"Don’t... don’t come over..." Hu San’s voice trembled, his raised hand froze in mid-air, and his face was about to cry. Chen Dashan said flatly, "Where is Deng Tiancheng?"

"I don’t know!"

Hu San blurted out. Seeing Chen Dashan’s face change, his eyes turned cold.

Seeing that he was about to be beaten again, Hu San’s eyes widened in fear and he curled up in a ball, shouting loudly, "I really don’t know, how could a small person like me know about Mr. Deng? I’m just a little nobody. Big brother, you have to believe me. If you don’t believe me, ask them, ask them!"

Hu San raised his hand and pointed to the group of small punks squatting on the ground. Each of them shook their heads in fear, saying, "We don’t know either!"

"Brother Hu San is right. Mr. Deng is such an important figure, he’s elusive. We’ve never seen him."

"We really don’t know!"

The group of punks looked dejected, shaking their heads as they spoke.

Chen Dashan stared at Hu San and took a deep breath: "Then keeping you around is useless."

Hu San was so scared that tears came out. Chen Dashan’s kick earlier had broken half of his ribs. Now, it was difficult for him to get up and sit on the ground. Another kick, and even an iron man couldn’t take it!

"I... I know a secret." Hu San was so scared he spoke incoherently.

Chen Dashan looked down and turned his gaze to Hu San.

Hu San, sweating profusely, said, "You, this shantytown renovation project, I think you should give it up. Mr. Deng should be collaborating with someone very powerful in Furong County. There’s an order from above to use all means necessary to prevent the original residents from moving out. With Mr. Deng’s intimidation, no matter how much money or how many houses you offer, no one would dare take them."

"These people, you can protect them for a while, but can you protect them every day?"

"Boss Chen, I advise you not to go against Mr. Deng. You don’t understand..."

Collaborating with someone powerful?

Chen Dashan immediately thought of Zhao Ding. Other than the Zhao family causing trouble, he couldn’t think of another person. But this Deng Tiancheng, he wanted to meet him.

"Yes, Boss Chen, you’d better leave. We can’t afford to mess with Deng Tiancheng, can we still not hide from him?"

"Forget it, living well is more important than anything else."

"The boss of the KTV at the intersection once offended Deng Tiancheng. That very night, he was kidnapped and drowned in the river. I’m just an ordinary person; I’d better live my life well..."

Everyone shook their heads, expressing that they didn’t dare to move out.

Qi Shuzhu and a few others hurried over. Seeing the smashed Range Rover and the helpless crowd, Guo Jinyu suddenly said, "I know Deng Tiancheng."

"He seems to be quite familiar with Uncle Liu. They have a good relationship."

Chen Dashan’s eyes lit up. If Deng Tiancheng was acquainted with Liu Yishou, things might be easier to handle.

Looking at Hu San sitting on the ground, Chen Dashan coldly said, "Get lost quickly. This time, for the sake of Deng Tiancheng’s relationship with Liu Yishou, I’ll let you go. If you dare to make a move again, I’ll make sure you regret it!"

"Yes, yes!"

"I don’t dare, I won’t dare anymore!"

Hu San scrambled and crawled away from the scene quickly, afraid that Chen Dashan would come back and beat him up again.

As soon as the twenty-three punks left, the street immediately quieted down. Looking at the horribly dented car, Chen Dashan dialed Wu Hongling. Turning to look at the crowd in the shantytown, he then realized that these people regarded him as a menace and kept their distance, not even daring to meet his eyes. Chen Dashan felt helpless.

He let the few girls wait first and went aside to call Liu Yishou.

"Beep... beep..."

Soon the phone was connected. Chen Dashan politely said, "Hello, Uncle Liu."

Liu Yishou chuckled, "Dashan, I heard that all your companies have resumed normal operations. I was worried about you, but it seems I was being overly concerned."

Chen Dashan smiled, "Thanks to your care during this period, did Qianqian mention to you? I’ve taken over the shantytown construction project in the new district."

"You’ve taken it over?"

Liu Yishou’s tone was shocked, and after a moment, he continued, "That’s not a small project. The shantytown renovation has been going on for five or six years, and the government hasn’t arranged it properly. It’s a hot potato. Taking it over now isn’t wise!"

Chen Dashan knew Liu Yishou was considering for his sake. He didn’t say much more, but changed the topic, "Do you know Deng Tiancheng, Uncle Liu?"

"Deng Tiancheng?"

"Of course, I know him. He’s mixed in the underworld, about ten years younger than me. When we meet, he respects me as Brother Liu. He’s a ruthless desperado, cunning by nature. It’s best not to get entangled with him."

After Liu Yishou finished speaking,

Chen Dashan smiled bitterly in his heart. There was no avoiding entanglement now. It seemed that Liu Yishou only knew Deng Tiancheng but didn’t have a deep relationship with him. Chen Dashan had to tell Liu Yishou about today’s events and asked him to introduce him to Deng Tiancheng to see what he really wanted.

Liu Yishou agreed, called Chen Dashan back in half an hour, and arranged a meeting at Tianbin Hotel in the shantytown at noon the next day.

After about half an hour, Wu Hongling took her people and picked up Chen Dashan and the others, while two others took away the Range Rover.

The matter was settled for now.

The next day at noon.

Chen Dashan went alone to Tianbin Restaurant. Following Liu Yishou’s instructions, he went to the reserved room.

Tianbin Restaurant had a modern exterior and a large area. The hotel was very impressive. Many young people from the shantytown chose to get married at Tianbin Hotel for both the reputation and the high-end quality.

This was Deng Tiancheng’s property. As soon as he entered the hotel, a graceful uniformed attendant greeted him, "Sir, do you have a reservation?"

"Zhongyi Room."

Chen Dashan said, the attendant’s face changed, and her attitude became more respectful, nodding and bowing, "Are you a friend of Mr. Liu?"

"Yes!"

Confirming his identity, the beautiful attendant led Chen Dashan into the exclusive elevator. The hotel was resplendent inside. The exclusive elevator only went to the 9th floor. When the elevator door opened, both sides of the carpeted corridor were lined with dozens of uniformed bodyguards. Hearing the commotion, the sharp-eyed bodyguards all turned to look at Chen Dashan.

The atmosphere was deadly.

"Hahaha... I have to say, Brother Liu, you’re getting old. It’s not your era anymore..."
