"What! Now that you have support from above, you think you can just oppress the people at will?" Director Guo glared at Chen Jin, grinding out each word with anger.
"Yeah! If you're so capable, take our land and lock us all up, why don't you!"
"Come on then! Take us away!"
"Come on!" The brothers behind Director Guo were all worked up.
Some of them had storefronts in Hejing, some owned several plots of land.
If those lands were to be acquired at a low price, their future income would be greatly reduced.
With each passing year, as Hejing's popularity increased, their losses would be even greater.
Initially, Director Guo came with just thirty people to hang up banners, but as the incident grew, more and more onlookers gathered.
Eventually, even those with storefronts and land in the county started to panic.
They relied on rental income from their properties, and if their land was acquired by the Osmanthus Group at a low price, their future would become uncertain.
