Li Ke asked directly: "Is anyone dead?"

The man didn't expect Li Ke to ask such a direct question first. He shook his head blankly and said, "No one was dead when I came out."

Li Ke: "What's going on? What's the reason?"

The man licked his chapped lips and said, "The construction team is dishonest. They built the manure pit to the base of our backyard wall. That place is not far away. We also need to repair the main house. We must not let them do this."

The people planting green roots in front of him had already mastered the rhythm, so Li Ke told the team leader that he wanted to go back and take a look. The team leader said enthusiastically: "You don't need my guidance on things here, why don't I go over and take a look. If it really gets out of hand, I can help mediate."

Li Ke did not refuse and led the group out directly: "If you are interested, just follow and take a look."

The team leader followed Li Ke's footsteps without saying anything. Of course, he was extremely interested, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to ask to go and take a look together. Of course, he would not say such straightforward words.

There are still nearly 200 people on Li Ke's construction site, but the neighbor behind has hired even more people, probably more than 500 people.

The two sides were still able to say a few words to each other at the beginning, but then the relationship began to deteriorate because the other party wanted to borrow Li Ke's machine.

The people on Li Ke's side were definitely unwilling to borrow it. They had few people and a large area, and to complete the project they had to rely on machines. Moreover, the other side had more than 500 people, and the team leader was a hired contractor.

They said they wanted to borrow money, but they didn't even have gasoline. It seemed like they wanted to borrow gasoline too. However, the real owner behind the scenes never showed up. As a contractor, he felt that he was very confident.

In the eyes of Li Ke's people, this person just thinks that he can have a few words with them, and relying on the fact that he has many people under his command, he becomes a little arrogant and loses his sense of direction.

They can't offer anything for exchange, and we're expecting to use their machines and gasoline just by making empty promises. Is that possible?

Li Ke's people thought that the contractor was arrogant and ignorant. He was unable to allocate the manpower properly and could not improve the construction progress, so he put the blame on them. It was wishful thinking.

Since rejecting the other party, the relationship between the two sides has begun to become colder and colder along with the weather. These matters are handled by the people below.

Although Li Ke had not participated in it, she had heard about it, but she felt that her people handled it well.

This kind of cold relationship actually only spreads among a few managers. The people who really have to do the hard work below will occasionally say a few words while they are working.

It was for this reason that Li Ke's people knew that the big pit that the neighbor behind was digging was to be used as a manure pit.

When Li Ke arrived at the place, part of the backyard wall had been knocked down. One of the stewards standing outside saw Li Ke coming back and immediately retreated from the edge of the battlefield.

"Base commander, I think this group of people did it on purpose. They never said they were going to dig a manure pit here before, but now they suddenly set up the location here. It must be the foreman who is causing trouble. It's too disgusting. Our people have inquired before that the owner of this place will live here with a group of bodyguards and servants, at least around a hundred people." The steward standing next to Li Ke replied.

Li Ke took two steps forward and saw a group of people entangled in the middle of the battlefield. Many of them had blood on their heads, but Li Ke couldn't see if there were people being crushed underneath them.

As soon as she walked over, the people outside made way for her. Li Ke drew his gun and fired three shots into the sky.

The more than 20 people who were entangled in front of him suddenly became quiet. Li Ke said coldly: "My people withdraw, and bring the troublemakers in. Whoever dares to stop me will be killed."

Li Ke's men immediately moved after hearing the order. Someone outside the wall said anxiously, "You are using your power to bully others. This is unreasonable. It was your people who started it first!"

As the other party just finished speaking, Li Ke shot at the other party's feet. The man immediately fell to the ground in pain. He felt that all his toes were broken.

Li Ke held the gun and said coldly: "Who else has any objection?"

No one dared to speak again. All of Li Ke's men had already entered the courtyard wall, including the people who had fought with them. They were also taken to their own yard, and half of them had bloody heads and faces.

Li Ke ordered that the seriously injured people be taken to the medical tent for treatment first, including the person she shot. She didn't want several lives to be lost because of such an incident.

Standing at the entrance of the wall he had smashed open, Li Ke looked at the deep pit not far away and asked, "Whose idea was this?"

No one answered. Li Ke pointed the gun at a man who looked familiar. He vaguely remembered that the other person was also a manager.

The manager saw the gun pointed at him and said quickly, "It was the foreman who arranged it. We just did as he said."

Li Ke asked again: "Where is your foreman?"

The person on the other side looked around, then said with a bitter face: "He was here just now. He must have heard the gunshots and ran away."

Li Ke: "I'll give you two hours to fill the hole and repair my wall. Before the owner of your land brings the foreman to apologize to us, you must stop all work. If you want to resume work, contact the person who is in charge as soon as possible to talk to him."

Li Ke selected five people to form a temporary guard team, set up a small tent next to the wall, gave each person a gun with one bullet in each gun, and asked them to supervise by the wall.

The contractor on the opposite side ran away, and the owner of the house had not shown up. These people were frightened by the gun and naturally did not dare to make trouble again.

As for those who participated in the fight, Li Ke asked his managers to deal with them, find out what happened, and determine who should be rewarded and who should be punished.

As for the other party's people, Li Ke asked them to register their personal information and then kicked them all out. If they were kept, he would have to provide them with meals. These people were not worth it.

The leader who sent the green roots watched the small excitement without any participation. After the matter was settled, he asked Li Ke: "The owner of that house is here. How does Captain Li plan to handle the communication?"

Li Ke said calmly: "If the other party is a reasonable person, I will reason with him. If he wants to use his fists, I will also be happy to accompany him."

The team leader nodded and praised: "Captain Li is really decisive in handling things."

He really wanted the contractor who had run away to bring the owner over quickly so that he could eat the whole melon, but unfortunately, when he completed the task and left with his teammates, no one came to find him.

The first snow fell for two days and was almost knee-deep. The courtyard wall of Li Ke’s house was completed, and all the construction teams had moved underground. The foundation on the ground had also been completed, and the rest of the work would continue in the spring of next year.

There were also several warm tents on the ground for the people guarding outside to rest. The owner of the homestead behind also sent a message on the fifth day.

The person who brought the news said that due to bad weather, they were unable to make it in time and wanted to ask Li Ke to go to the nearest outpost reception desk to discuss the matter.

Li Ke replied calmly: "Go back and tell the master that I don't have time to go over. If you want to discuss, come over tomorrow afternoon. If you don't want to discuss, you can just stay here for now."

The man's expression remained unchanged as he continued, "It is true that our base commander's wife is not in good health and has not yet cleaned up the place to live. I hope that Base Commander Li will forgive us. To show our sincerity, our base commander has specially invited Captain Xiao from the safety zone to accompany us. Please do me the honor of meeting her."

Li Ke's face was slightly serious and he asked, "Is it Xiao Yi?"

The person who reported the news nodded: "It is Captain Xiao Yixiao."

Li Ke thought for a moment before asking, "What's your base leader's last name? What's his name?"

The person who reported the news was surprised. He thought that the people here already knew their information. He quickly replied: "Our base leader's surname is Jian, a simple Jian, with a single given name, Ye."

Hearing this, Li Ke said without any emotion: "I'm still busy. If you want to talk, come over. If you don't want to talk, forget it."

The person who reported the news had an embarrassed look on his face, but he knew his identity, so he could only smile and leave, saying that he would pass her words on to the base commander.

During the previous bidding, Jian Ye did not show up, and the Jian family was not strong enough to enter the boss's base. Li Ke thought that the N City Shelter had been completely disbanded.

Unexpectedly, the Jian family would show up again at this time, but Li Ke had heard about it from Song Xian before. Later, some bases came and the powerful bases were organized together and conducted two more biddings. After all, there was still a lot of land left in the safe zone.

The Jian family should have come later. It was a bit of fate that they became neighbors again, and it seemed that Jian Ye was married.

But her people found out that the owner of the house behind was surnamed Qi. Could this be the surname of Madam Jian Ye?

Since she couldn't be sure, Li Ke didn't think about it any more. If the other party was in a hurry, they would come to her naturally. Anyway, she was not in a hurry. She would not give in just because they were old acquaintances.

After all, Jian Ye asked Xiao Yi to accompany her without knowing her identity. Isn't this another way of using power to pressure others?
