Chapter 175: Chapter 176: Returning to the Village

Li Yang charged forward just as they were approaching.

BAM!

The guy in the very front, holding an iron bar, was still whistling when Li Yang sent him flying.

At the same time, the iron bar fell into Li Yang’s hands.

Li Yang swung the bar, and the two guys in front of him collapsed to the ground as if they’d taken a heavy blow.

Li Yang moved forward again, stepped on their bodies, and used the momentum to charge at the next two men.

Predictably, those two also fell to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, four men were down.

Young Master Peng had been feeling rather smug, but seeing his men go down so quickly filled his heart with indescribable horror.

Li Yang strode forward, slapped him across the face, and then smashed the bar against his back.

"Agh!" Young Master Peng screamed in pain.

"Let me tell you something. From this day forward, I, Li Yang, am protecting them. If you dare to withhold even a single cent of their wages, I’ll fucking end you!" Li Yang growled, stepping on the man’s fingers and grinding his foot down.

"It hurts! Let go... I won’t do it again! I’ll never do it again..." Young Master Peng shrieked, the pain unceasing.

Only then did Li Yang kick him away. "Get lost."

Young Master Peng’s forehead was covered in sweat. Not daring to say another word, he and his men fled in disarray.

The others were dumbfounded.

The way they looked at Li Yang was completely different now.

They never expected him to be so skilled in a fight. It was something they had never even considered.

"Don’t worry, everyone!" Li Yang said to them earnestly. "Now that I’ve stepped in, they absolutely won’t dare to dock a single cent of your pay. If you want to work, you can start at the Dynasty Hotel tomorrow."

The girls all cheered with joy.

With someone as powerful as Li Yang backing them up, what was there to be afraid of?

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, everyone finally left.

The next day, Zhang Li and the others officially resigned from the Fenglaiyi Hotel, and the Dynasty Hotel took them in.

At this, Boss Peng of the Fenglaiyi Hotel was left completely speechless.

For the next while, Li Yang focused on teaching them massage techniques. He didn’t prepare to leave until they were all familiar with the methods and only needed to practice.

Even so, he had already stayed for nearly a week.

"President Li..." On the day he left, Ma Chao handed Li Yang a thick red envelope. "Thank you so much. You have to come back and give us more guidance in the future."

"Alright!" Li Yang said with a smile. "I’ll be heading back now."

Ma Chao nodded.

Li Yang said goodbye to them and then drove back to the village.

Back in the village, Li Yang had just sat down when he saw Qin Susu jogging over. She looked at Li Yang with a shocked expression and said, "Where have you been this past week? Oh, and people have been randomly ordering water from our company. They said you set up the deal..."

Li Yang smiled faintly. "It was Boss Zheng, right?"

"It was more than just him!" Qin Susu said excitedly. "Lots of people from that industrial park have ordered our water. They said they had an inspection and that our product is excellent, so a lot of them placed orders. Our water factory is running normally now, with no problems at all."

Li Yang laughed heartily and nodded. "Looks like our work is paying off. Keep it up."

Qin Susu said proudly, "Of course it is. I always do good work."

Li Yang couldn’t be bothered to engage with her. "I’m going to go check on my fishing center..."

With that, Li Yang went to the fishing center. He saw that it was almost finished. At the very least, the cafeteria’s formwork was being installed, ready for the roof to be poured.

Moreover, materials for the mountain villa were already being delivered, a clear sign that construction was about to begin.

Li Yang rubbed his hands together.

Liuwan happened to be delivering materials as well. She greeted Li Yang when she saw him. "It’s good that you’re here. I wanted to let you know, work on the mountain villa can start right away, so I’ll get it started for you. The school is coming along quickly, too."

"Manager Liu!" Li Yang stepped forward and shook her hand. "Thank you so much. By the way, I wanted to ask you something. The road to our village from town... it’s about ten li long. How much would it cost to pave it?"

"Huh?" Liuwan was taken aback. "You want to pave this road?"

"I want to!" Li Yang said earnestly. "Look, my water factory is up and running, but we still have this dirt road. That just won’t do."

"Do you have that much money?" Liuwan asked with a smile.

"I’ll earn it!" Li Yang said seriously. "You can give me a quote, and I’ll see if I can scrape the money together."

"Alright!" Liuwan nodded. "Then it’s a deal."

Li Yang smiled. "Great, it’s a deal."

A day later, construction on the mountain villa began. When the firecrackers were set off, half the village came to watch.

"Xiaoyang is building a mountain villa!"

"He’s amazing!"

"Yeah! Maybe our village has a bright future ahead of it!"

The villagers were all quite happy.

As for Li Yang, he was even happier.

’I’ve really taken a major step forward!’
