Chapter 386 - 389 Broadcast
Liu Jingming's heart felt like it was bleeding. The thought of handing over the village chief position to Liu Ergou was simply unthinkable.Just as Liu Jingming was about to speak, he suddenly remembered something critical. He had embezzled the funds for Liu Ergou's clinic. Almost immediately after he did, a warning had come down from the town officials. If he went after Liu Ergou again, he feared he wouldn't just be unable to keep his position as village chief—he'd be stripped of it completely and reduced to a common villager.
A cold sweat broke out on his brow at the thought. Liu Jingming was now in a complete dilemma, unsure of what to do. So, he hesitated, saying nothing. A considerable time passed, and Wu Dahu grew impatient.hat should solve it!"
Having said his piece, Liu Jingming left the village committee office, staggering theatrically all the way back to his house.
Wu Dahu watched his retreating back, a wide, gleeful smile spreading across his face.
At this moment, he had only one thought. This time, Liu Ergou is really done for! Liu Jingming himself is helping me. How could Liu Ergou possibly survive?
Laughing to himself, Wu Dahu hurried over to the microphone and pulled the red cloth off it. He blew into the mouthpiece. A loud screech echoed from the speakers outside. After confirming the microphone was working, Wu Dahu leaned in and spoke clearly into the broadcast system.
"Testing, testing! Can all villagers hear me? This is Wu Dahu!"
His voice instantly echoed throughout the village.
Inside his room, Liu Ergou shot up from his bed when he heard the broadcast. He furrowed his brow and stared out the window.
He couldn't understand how Wu Dahu had gotten access to the village broadcast system. As far as he knew, only the village chief and the party secretary could use it. No one else should even be able to dream of it.
Lifting his head, Liu Ergou listened intently. Wu Dahu's voice came through the broadcast again.
"Fellow villagers, this is Wu Dahu, and I have something extremely important to tell you all! This morning, our very own Liu Ergou was visited by the police!
"The reason is simple: there's a problem with his wasteland. I heard that the harmful substances in the soil have exceeded safe levels, and the police ordered him to stop farming it. If he continues to farm that land, those harmful substances will spread and threaten our entire village!
"Now, you'd think any normal person would stop after hearing that, but not Liu Ergou! He's just carrying on as he pleases! I happened to be standing nearby when the police came and I heard everything. I might be uneducated, but I'm a resident of Fengzhu Village too, and I can't bear to see my fellow villagers come to harm!
"That's why I've chosen to tell you all the truth! I've said my piece!"
As Wu Dahu's last words fell, the once-quiet village instantly erupted into an uproar.
