Chapter 18

"Minyuan, do you want to play big?" Liu Yuxuan looked at the angry Wang Minyuan and said.

"Whatever you say, we'll do it." Wang Minyuan was also determined, thinking that if things got really bad, he could always turn to the old man. This time, he didn't start the trouble.

In fact, Liu Yuxuan's plan was simple. You cut off my power? Fine, no problem, I'll buy a generator.

And he bought two, one for the pig farm and one for the chicken farm. This incident actually reminded Liu Yuxuan. If there's a sudden power outage in the future, at least he wouldn't panic. Besides, it wasn't expensive, only 8,000 yuan per unit.

With the two generators installed, the urgent problem was finally solved. He even built two small houses for the generators, one to reduce noise and the other for maintenance.

"Uncle Zhao is calling, answer quickly, Uncle Zhao is calling, answer quickly." While drinking tea with Wang Minyuan and Zhao Yan at the pig farm, the phone rang. Liu Yuxuan saw it was Uncle Zhao's number.

Liu Yuxuan gestured for Zhao Yan to check the call and gave him a questioning look, as if to say, did you tell Uncle Zhao?

Zhao Yan shrugged and shook his head, meaning, I didn't say anything. I don't know what it's about.

Wang Minyuan, standing nearby, laughed. "You two are playing a mime show, answer the phone already?"

"Uncle Zhao, it's Yuxuan," Liu Yuxuan said after answering the call.

"Yuxuan, you're in trouble now, right? Do you need Uncle Zhao to help you find some connections?" Uncle Zhao asked.

"Thanks, Uncle Zhao. It's a small problem, I can handle it. Just wait and see the show," Liu Yuxuan said cheerfully.

Hearing Liu Yuxuan's words, Uncle Zhao felt relieved. "You little rascal, the news has spread throughout the county. If you can't handle it, just let Uncle Zhao know. My old face still commands some respect."

"Uncle Zhao, what have I done to deserve your concern? They're just a few troublemakers. Our reputation is too valuable to be tarnished by such trivial matters."

After ending the call with Uncle Zhao, Liu Yuxuan turned to Zhao Yan and asked, "You didn't mention Minyuan's identity to Uncle Zhao?"

Liu Yuxuan thought that if Uncle Zhao knew the son of the provincial party secretary was here, he wouldn't be so anxious.

"My ancestor, how could I dare to mention it? Our Prince Wang is here on a secret mission," Zhao Yan said solemnly, but the mischievous smile on his face made Wang Minyuan doubt his sincerity.

"Alright, it's my fault. Let's see when I have time, I'll visit Uncle Zhao," Wang Minyuan said, both amused and exasperated by Zhao Yan's antics.

Far away in the county, Wang Zhe was so angry when he heard that Liu Yuxuan had bought generators that he almost overturned the table.

"Monkey, didn't you say that once we cut off his power, he would come begging for mercy?"

Monkey, who had already recovered, had come up with the idea of cutting off the power. He didn't expect Liu Yuxuan to resolve it so easily.

"Damn, if that doesn't work, we'll send people to check on them every day. And we'll keep the power off. I don't believe those generators can last a month or two," Monkey suggested.

Wang Zhe had no better ideas, so he agreed to the plan.

The pig farm and chicken farm became lively. Today, the business administration came, tomorrow the tax bureau, the next day the environmental protection department. The funniest part was when the urban management department even drove by to take a look.

For over ten days, these troublemakers kept coming. They were not having an easy time either. Why? The business administration found that the company's documents were complete. The tax bureau found that they had only sold watermelons once and paid all the taxes. The environmental protection department had no grounds to act, as the pig farm had its own biogas digester to treat wastewater.

What these people didn't know was that everything they did in the factory was being recorded by hidden cameras.

The Real News Eye program at the provincial city TV station received an anonymous tip half a month ago. The tipster claimed that in Ling County's Kao Mountain Village, the son of the county magistrate was using illegal means to seize the property of the people. The tipster said he was just a truck driver passing through.

Wang Yue had been working at the program for over three years. He was skeptical about the tip but thought any valuable news was worth investigating. Since it wasn't far, a round trip by car would only take a few hours.

He first visited the county for a preliminary investigation and found that the county magistrate's son had a poor reputation.

When he arrived at the pig farm, Liu Yuxuan received him. Liu Yuxuan denied the allegations, saying the pig farm was operating well and thanked the journalist for his concern.

But hearing the rumbling of the generator, Wang Yue knew something was off. This dispelled his suspicion that Liu Yuxuan had made the anonymous call.

Coincidentally, just as Wang Yue was about to leave, the business administration came for another inspection. Wang Yue pretended to leave and secretly filmed the scene.

In fact, this was all part of Liu Yuxuan's plan. He had made the call and arranged for the factory staff to be on the lookout for anyone asking questions. Wang Yue's movements had been monitored for the past two days.

When the business administration arrived, Liu Yuxuan knew his plan was working. He had suspected that Wang Zhe would use official power to cause trouble. The arrival of the business administration was perfect, saving him the trouble of finding an excuse to invite Wang Yue back.

One day, Wang Zhe finally couldn't hold back. He gathered a group of thugs from the county and went to the pig farm to block the entrance.

Liu Yuxuan looked at the arrogant Wang Zhe and noticed Wang Yue in the crowd watching the commotion. He thought, "Prince Wang, you really know how to add fuel to the fire."

"Prince Wang, I just have one question. Why go to such lengths for a small company like mine?" This was something Liu Yuxuan couldn't understand.

"Your little company isn't even worth my attention. I could buy it with my annual allowance. The main issue is that you don't know your place. You've disrespected me, and I need to settle the score," Wang Zhe said disdainfully.

"Oh, just because I didn't let you invest, you lost face. So you're making such a big fuss. I have one more question, Prince Wang, does your father know about your antics?" Liu Yuxuan turned and walked back into the pig farm, closing the gate.

Wang Zhe was taken aback, thinking, "What does my father have to do with this?" Then he realized Liu Yuxuan was provoking him.

Prince Wang was furious. "Block the entrance. We won't hurt anyone, just the vehicles. Stop any vehicle from leaving or entering," Wang Zhe said angrily to his men.

"Tsk, Prince Wang, you're a natural on camera," Wang Yue secretly filmed the entire scene, especially the last part where Wang Zhe's arrogance was on full display.

Wang Zhe didn't notice that one person was missing from the crowd, nor did he know what disaster this person would bring.

At that moment, he thought the more people who came, the better. It would help people see him in a new light. Anyone who wanted to challenge him in the future would have to think twice.

Inside the pig farm, Zhao Yan was a bit worried. The farm's raw material reserves were only enough for a week. If Wang Zhe continued to block the entrance, it would be a serious problem.

"Don't worry, it will be resolved in a day or two," Liu Yuxuan said calmly.

"Really?" Zhao Yan was skeptical.

"Haven't you heard the saying, 'If you don't seek death, you won't die'? Since Prince Wang dared to do this, whether he's willing to die or not, he's probably going to die," Liu Yuxuan said.

"Damn, I've never heard that before, but it sounds quite philosophical," Zhao Yan mused.
