Hearing Fang Qiu’s words, the mine owner, who had been in a state of panic, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn’t expect that Fang Qiu not only didn’t hit him but also gave him a good chance.
“I, I’ll go, I’ll go…” As he rolled his eyes, the mine owner stammered then ran into the room next to the mine.
This time, Fang Qiu didn’t let the young man follow him.
After entering the room, the mine owner had no intention of getting money at all. Instead, he immediately called the police and even called a lawyer.
Not long afterward, with a siren wailing, a police car arrived.
A black car followed closely behind.
The police came, so did the lawyer.
“Is it you who came here to make trouble?” As they came to the mine, the policemen got out of the car, took the notebook in his hand, and walked to Fang Qiu, asking and taking notes at the same time.
“I’m not making trouble.” Fang Qiu shook his head.
“What are you doing here then?”
The policeman stared at Fang Qiu and then reached out his hand. “Who are you? Take out your ID card.”
“It’s him. He’s the one who’s causing trouble. Look, our man here has been knocked unconscious by him.” The mine owner ran out of the room and raced to the police. He straightened his body, pointed at the Martial Superior who was knocked out by Fang Qiu and reported angrily.
Next to Fang Qiu, the young man stood up angrily, glared at the mine owner, and said to the police, “We didn’t make any trouble. We came here to help the miners in the Xiao Mount village to ask for compensation.”
The policeman angrily rebuked the young man and said, “Do you think you can hit someone just because you want to ask for compensation? You must get the compensation, but you can’t resort to violence, and you can’t break the law for asking for the compensation!”
“They started it first.” The young man felt very wronged.
“It’s okay.”
Fang Qiu reached out to stop the young man and then said to the police, “I know that without evidence, you can’t get justice for those miners. Let me make a call. You don’t have to interfere in this matter.”
Everyone was stunned as he said that.
“What did he mean?”
“Let the police stay out of it. Is he so capable?”
Not only the miners and the young people around him but also several policemen and the mine owner were completely dumbfounded.
For a moment, everyone was a little curious about Fang Qiu’s background.
Fang Qiu didn’t hesitate and immediately called Li Ji.
“Hello?” When the phone was connected, Fang Qiu directly mobilized his internal Qi to completely isolate himself from the surroundings.
“There’s something I need your help with.”
Hearing Li Ji’s voice, Fang Qiu hurriedly said, “I’m now in the Xiao Mount village in Su Gan province, and most of the patients in this village are suffering from pneumoconiosis…”
Fang Qiu quickly told him the whole issue.
“No problem. It will only take a few minutes.” After listening to Fang Qiu, Li Ji directly nodded and agreed.
The young man was totally shocked by Fang Qiu’s performance.
He was standing beside Fang Qiu. Normally, he could clearly hear what people said on the other end of the phone, not to mention what Fang Qiu said. But the strange thing was that this time he couldn’t even hear a word on Fang Qiu’s phone.
It was obvious that this was the result achieved by Fang Qiu using some means.
The young man thought to himself, “This is amazing!”
Indeed, Fang Qiu did it on purpose.
He did not want his real identity to be exposed.
“Wait a minute.” After the phone call, Fang Qiu said to the police.
In less than two minutes, the phone of the police officer on duty rang. It was a call from his superior.
After answering the phone, the policeman didn’t say anything. He saluted Fang Qiu in shock and then left directly.
The mine owner was frightened out of his wits.
“Don’t, don’t go!”
The mine owner tried to stop the police, but the police ignored him directly.
The lawyer was also anxious.
He immediately shouted angrily, “You are the police. This is professional misconduct. I’m going to sue you!”
The police didn’t pay attention to him at all. They got into the car and drove away.
“It’s 30 million now!”
No sooner had the police left than Fang Qiu said to the mine owner, “You only have one and a half hours left.”
“What are you doing?”
The lawyer stepped forward angrily, glared at Fang Qiu, and said, “You are extorting, and you will be sentenced to imprisonment for life with such an enormous amount of money!”
“Pa.” Fang Qiu didn’t hesitate but gave him a fierce slap in the face, which made him stagger a few steps back before he steadied himself. Then Fang Qiu glanced at him indifferently and said, “You can also accuse me of this!”
The lawyer immediately gave in.
He covered his face furiously but did not dare to say anything.
“I, I really don’t have money. Please spare me, please.”
The mine owner was also so afraid that he knelt down and begged for mercy in fright.
“If I spare you, who will spare those miners?”
Fang Qiu growled, “If you don’t have enough money after one and a half hours, I’ll make you suffer!”
Once again, the owner was intimidated by Fang Qiu.
The mine owner had no choice.
He could only go to beg everyone he knew and make phone calls and ask for help everywhere. In the end, he had no choice but to sell the mine to get 30 million. He asked someone to put the money in three large suitcases and delivered them here.
Seeing the money, Fang Qiu verified it. After confirming that the number was correct, he asked the young man to carry two boxes. And he also lifted one box, ready to return to Xiao Mount village.
Before leaving, Fang Qiu swept across the miners around him, then took a deep breath and said, “If you don’t want to suffer from pneumoconiosis, change to another job. As long as you are willing to work, there will be jobs better than this one.”
After that, Fang Qiu went straight to the unconscious Martial Superior and gave him a gentle slap with his right hand, directly waking him up with internal Qi.
“Ah…” As soon as he woke up, the man shouted and struggled to get up with a panicked face, trying to dodge.
“Humph.” Fang Qiu grabbed him by the collar and said, “Since you’re doing evil things with this power, you’d better not have it.”
He directly smashed the man’s Dantian with a punch, breaking his meridians and completely destroying them!
Seeing this scene, the eyes of the young man next to him were shining with excitement.
“Let’s go.” Carrying the box with money, Fang Qiu returned to the village with the young man.
Shortly after they left, this mine was sealed. The reason was that they were mining illegally.
“It’s so cool. It’s so awesome.” On the way back to the village, the young man looked at Fang Qiu with excitement and asked, “Do you know what’s the coolest?”
“It was what you said when you finally maimed that Martial Superior. Your words reminded me of my idol!”
Fang Qiu was surprised and asked with a smile, “Who is your idol?”
“John Doe.” The young man said with a look of respect.
“Why him?” Hearing the young man’s words, Fang Qiu was amazed.
“Because John Doe is awesome.”
The young man said with reverence, “John Doe is not only powerful but also very righteous. He said that martial artists’ power should be used to protect the weak and to preserve kindness. His words hit me, so I came here. As a martial arts practitioner, I want to help people here, but unfortunately, my strength is limited.”
Fang Qiu smiled slightly.
In his heart, he began to pay more attention to this young man. This young man had pure kindness. Maybe he could be cultivated.
“Actually, I’m also born into a poor family.”
The young man continued, “In the past, I couldn’t do anything, and I couldn’t even support myself. But after becoming a martial arts practitioner, I can rely on myself. But I didn’t know what else my power could do except for being independent. It wasn’t until I heard John Doe’s words that I finally understood that the feeling of helping people was really good.”
“Good job, keep it up,” said Fang Qiu, trying to encourage him.
“If only I were as powerful as you. Then I would be able to help more people.”
The young man smiled and said, “Although resorting to violence is not the best way to solve the problem, it is the fastest and most efficient way.”
“Yeah.” Fang Qiu nodded in agreement.
Soon, the two of them returned to the village.
“We’re back. We’ve got the compensation back!” As soon as they arrived at the village entrance, the young man shouted merrily.
Upon hearing this, several middle-aged men at the entrance of the village immediately showed a gratified smile on their faces. Then, they spontaneously went to inform all the people in the village and asked them to collect the money.
Fang Qiu and the young man were at the entrance of the village, placing the three boxes of money on a wooden table and giving out the compensation.
Each family would get 300,000.
All the families in the village came to collect the money one after another.
After receiving the money, they all burst into tears no matter it was a man, a woman, the old, or the young.
What Fang Qiu saw was endless sadness. There was no excitement or desire stimulated by the money at all.
“Thank you, thank you, thank you.” Having received the money, everyone knelt down and kowtowed to Fang Qiu to thank him.
Fang Qiu and the young man hurried forward to stop them, but they failed.
In this case, the two of them could only kneel on the ground with all the people in the village.
Fang Qiu tried to persuade them, “Guys, please get up. Good days are yet to come.”
But everyone only kowtowed to him, and no one was willing to get up.
Seeing this scene, although the young man didn’t say anything, his eyes were already wet while his tears fell down.
Fang Qiu suggested, “Why don’t you go back first and tell our family this good news?”
Only then did everyone come to their senses. They stood up one by one and rushed home while wiping their tears.
“It felt so good to be able to help others.” After they left, the young man said with tears in his eyes.
Fang Qiu didn’t answer.
However, looking at the backs of villagers leaving from a distance, he was lost in thought.
He had helped them got back the money.
However, how could the health of those patients be cured?
This was what Fang Qiu was most concerned about.
So far, he still hadn’t come up with any good idea.
In the end, Fang Qiu decided to stay and think about it for the whole night.
If he really couldn’t come up with a solution, he would hurry to the next place. If he continued to think about it slowly, he would eventually come up with a good idea someday.
In the evening, Fang Qiu and the young man found a shabby house and stayed for a night.
“By the way, what’s your name?” Fang Qiu asked the young man.
“Me?”
The young man chuckled and said, “My name is Liang Fen. What about you?”
“We’ll talk about it later.”
Fang Qiu smiled slightly.
He genuinely felt that this young man was a good person. He was not the kind of martial arts practitioner who devoted himself to practicing martial arts only, nor the kind of person who was domineering and bossed people around with his power. He was kind with feelings and righteousness in his heart. This kind of person was indeed worthy of deep friendship and more worth cultivating.
