Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 471: Come Out and Confront
Bang!
Director Guo’s words exploded like a bomb among the crowd.
The notice was posted by the county government, and it made its intentions clear.
If it was just as Director Guo had said, then their own financial opportunities would be thoroughly cut off!
"Osmanthus Group, get out of Hejing!"
"Osmanthus Group, get out of Hejing!"
...
No one would want to see their interests tampered with, yet it was not just one person.
It was an entire county!
To say the least, that was the interest of thousands of people.
On a larger scale, including family members, that could be tens of thousands of people!
Osmanthus Group had infringed upon the interests of tens of thousands!
This was enough to incite the anger of the entire city.
"Quiet! Everyone, be quiet!" Lin Xiaotian had heard everything Xia Liu said.
Since he had said that he would not purchase the land, he truly wouldn’t.
However, his voice was loud, but compared to the agitated crowd at the scene, it was minuscule.
Watching the angry crowd, Xia Liu remained silent, focusing intently on Director Guo.
If this guy really knew people from the county government, then he definitely would not have said such things.
This was completely different from what he had promised in the county government meeting room; he was intentionally causing trouble!
"My friends, everyone, please calm down."
After pondering for a moment, Xia Liu spoke indifferently.
His words were calm and not too loud, but everyone heard them clearly.
What was somewhat puzzling was that Xia Liu’s words seemed to have a kind of magic.
It caused their emotions to quietly subside, as if coming from a command deep within their souls that prevented them from shrieking at Xia Liu or losing their temper.
"What else do you want to say! Is it reasonable to acquire our land at a low price?" Seeing the crowd calm down, Director Guo roared again, trying to sway the emotions of the people.
However, this time he failed, as everyone’s attention was focused on Xia Liu, eager to know his plans and what his decision would ultimately be.
After calming down, they were more rational because the notice had not specified anything about the acquisition.
"Most of you may not have been here today, so I will briefly state Osmanthus Group’s idea about the renovation of Hejing." Xia Liu slowly spoke, looking at the crowd gathered: "Osmanthus Group will not force anyone in any form to give up their land. Our plan is to sign a profit-sharing agreement with everyone, where Osmanthus Group will fund the construction on the existing land, whether it’s buildings or businesses, and everything will proceed only with everyone’s consent."
"And if there is anyone who wishes to sell their land, Osmanthus Group will offer to buy it for three times the current market price."
Xia Liu finished speaking, and he was very serious with every word; he did not continue further, giving the crowd some time to digest.
"He actually said he won’t force us!"
"Offering three times the market price to buy the land!"
"Osmanthus Group is also consulting with us on how to redevelop!"
"Profit-sharing agreement!"
...
After understanding Xia Liu’s words, the crowd burst into excited discussions.
This was the first time they had seen such a conscientious capitalist.
And that price, three times higher than the market rate for purchasing land, almost made many landowners jump for joy.
Some of them owned several plots of land; if they originally sold one for five hundred thousand, they could now sell it for one and a half million!
This was simply a staggering, heaven-sent joy.
Some people who didn’t understand Xia Liu’s meaning were confused. Seeing the joyous expressions on the faces around them, they knew that Xia Liu must have said something positive.
Like these people, Director Guo was also confused.
He had never expected that Xia Liu’s control was so strong that the people who had been clamoring and even wanted to dismantle Osmanthus Group had quieted down in such a short time.
And Director Guo was also sure that if he dared to oppose Xia Liu, he would definitely be spat on by some people.
"Hehe! You make it sound nice, but do you think we would believe you?" Although he might be beaten by the surrounding merchants, Director Guo was not giving up. He was determined to stop Xia Liu, to stop the planning of Osmanthus Group!
"Damn it! This guy is definitely here to make trouble!" Seeing that Director Guo was still threatening, Li Qianqian said angrily.
"I’ve noticed that too!"
"He must have taken someone’s money to cause trouble!"
Zhang Qing and Huang Xue were also very angry. It was infuriating how Director Guo, this kind of person, deserved to die. Xia Liu had already explained everything clearly, and yet he still pushed so persistently.
"I think this is quite normal. After all, before the measures are officially announced, people will always have many suspicions."
"Yes, but I believe in Brother Xia Liu. He can handle all this." In response to Fang Fei’s sentiment, Zhang Xiaoxue and Zhang Xiaoman nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Xia Liu will definitely be able to resolve today’s problems." Gu Fangxia also trusted Xia Liu without reason; she had met him through business.
For this man who always brought miracles, she had no reason to doubt him.
Trust seemed to have taken root from the very beginning.
"This sir, since you say you know people inside the county government and don’t believe my words, well, I also know many people in the county government. Let’s call them out to confront each other and let everyone see Osmanthus Group’s sincerity. What do you think about this approach?"
Xia Liu said with a chilling smile, then stared at Director Guo.
Huh?
Director Guo’s pupils suddenly contracted; he couldn’t respond to Xia Liu’s words. This counterattack had thoroughly doomed him.
He did know people in the county government, but if it was exposed, he would definitely ruin his own future, while that person would certainly be unaffected.
Such a self-damaging act was something Director Guo would neither do nor dare to do.
"Haha! The boss is right!"
"Yeah, come on, sir. Quickly call your friends from the county government to confront us!"
"Sir! Quickly call your friends from the county government over!"
"Haha! Sir..."
Listening to the crowd suddenly calling Director Guo "sir," some of the younger people in the audience burst into laughter.
Director Guo was only around thirty years old, and although Xia Liu appeared young, everyone knew that he must be about the same age as Director Guo. Yet he directly shamed Director Guo in his address, truly a master of words.
"Enough from you! Be careful or you might end up counting money for someone who’s sold you out!" Director Guo was very angry, his fists clenched tightly. If it weren’t for Chen Jin and his colleagues being there, he would have already taken action.
"Hehe, I really don’t know where this jealous dog came from."
"Right, jealous dog, are you jealous of Osmanthus Group or jealous of the Hejing people’s income increasing?"
"Tsk tsk, such a person really has issues. If you can’t stand to see others doing well, go to a hospital, don’t come here spreading rumors!"

"Right! Go to the hospital. We’ll all chip in a little money; it should be enough for you to eat for half a year."
Hahaha...
Facing Director Guo’s sharp words, the words of the crowd present were even more intense and venomous.
