The Li family's ancestral grave was on Mount Baitou near Chenjiawan.
At this moment, the foot of White Head Mountain was filled with people.
Although Li Chengyuan and his brother had been away from home for many years, Li Chengyuan often went back to visit his hometown. In addition, many people in Li Chenghui's engineering team were from Chen Jiawan.
Now that Li Chenghui was gone and Li Chengyuan returned to his hometown, many people came to help.
Li Chengyuan was chatting with several elders in the village, looking worried.
As he spoke, someone suddenly shouted, "We're here!"
Li Chengyuan raised his head to take a look. Soon, a long line of carriages was approaching the foot of the mountain.
As the convoy got closer, someone in the crowd whispered, "There must be a mistake. It seems to be someone else's."
"Well, who's having a funeral? I haven't heard of anyone getting rich near Chen Jiawan."
The crowd began to discuss in low voices. Clearly, they did not think that this was the Li family's convoy.
After all, Li Chenghui was just a contractor. Although he was considered rich in Chen Jiawan, it was nothing compared to his wealth.
Others were still guessing whose motorcade it was, but Li Chengyuan had already guessed that it was Li Chenghui's funeral motorcade.
Yesterday, his son had called him and asked him to open ten more tables. He said that many friends would be coming. At that time, Li Chengyuan had only thought that ten tables was too much. But now that he saw so many cars, Li Chengyuan was speechless.
It would be fine if there were only one or two people in each car, but if there were a few more people, even ten tables wouldn't be enough.
Li Chengyuan felt a little emotional in his heart. How long had it been? His son had actually made so many friends.
While everyone was still guessing which family was having a funeral, Li Nanming had already gotten out of the car with the portrait in his hand.
As soon as Li Nanming got out of the car, many people recognized him. Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "He really is from Cheng Hui's family!"
"I didn't expect Cheng Hui to be doing so well in the city all these years!"
As the crowd discussed, Wang Li, who was in the crowd, went forward. She glanced at the strangers coming down from the carriages and asked curiously, "Nanming, did you call these people over?"
Li Nanming curled his lips and said, "I didn't call them. I have a lot of money. Li Dong brought them here. I don't even know why he hired so many people."
"Hired?"
Wang Li's face was filled with shock and disbelief.
"Of course I hired him. What else do you think?"
As the two of them were talking in low voices, Hu Sicheng and the others had already walked over.
Wang Li, who had been in the city for many years, immediately felt that something was wrong when she saw the way Hu Sicheng and the others dressed and walked.
Were these people hired?
How could this be?
A person's temperament was not innate, but slowly cultivated.
These people, whether they were officials like Hu Sicheng, or the second generations like Chen Rui, or the big suppliers, were usually arrogant and bossy.
That sense of superiority was definitely not something that could be acted out with money.
Although Wang Li was not well-educated and had not seen much of the world, she had still met some big bosses and minor officials in Qingyang City.
She could guarantee that none of the merchants or officials in Qingyang City had an aura as strong as the one in front of her.
Especially when these people were walking towards her, Wang Li felt an invisible pressure.
Not to mention Wang Li, even Li Nanming felt a little depressed at this moment.
Looking back at the crowd, Li Nanming mumbled, "Their acting is really good."
No one heard Li Nanming's mumble. Even if they did, they wouldn't care. They were here today for Li Dong, not Li Nanming.
Li Dong also got out of the car at this moment and walked to Wang Li. "These are my friends. They are here to send Uncle off."
Hearing this, Wang Li nodded to everyone.
Hu Sicheng and the others hurriedly responded, constantly saying, "My condolences."
When Li Dong introduced Li Chengyuan as his father, everyone was even more polite.
Especially those managers and directors in the distance, they kept calling him "uncle".
Li Chengyuan looked embarrassed. Some of these people were not much younger than him, but they were calling him uncle. That was too much.
At this moment, the villagers at the foot of Baitou Mountain finally realized.
These people were brought here by Old Li's second son. Judging from their aura, they were not simple people.
Someone in the crowd whispered, "Isn't Dongzi in university? How does he know so many big bosses? "
From their point of view, the drivers were all bosses, especially the few suppliers. They looked like big bosses, which was a rare sight.
Li Dong, a student, actually knew so many big bosses. It would be strange if it wasn't strange.
However, because they were not familiar with each other, and it was getting late, they did not ask much.
Just as the villagers of Chen Jiawan were about to go up the mountain, a large group of people rushed over.
Seeing those people, Li Chengyuan immediately panicked. He quickly went over and said, "Seventh Uncle, don't make a fuss. I will definitely give you an explanation later!"
The person who was called Seventh Uncle was an old man in his sixties. When Li Chengyuan finished speaking, the old man scolded, "What explanation! I'm telling you, Old Li, this is not over! If we don't deal with it today, that bastard Li Chenghui can forget about being buried! "
As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Li immediately scolded loudly, "You old bastard, are you still a human? He's already dead, and you're still humiliating him. Aren't you afraid of retribution? "
"You're the one suffering retribution!"
"Your Old Li family should be struck by lightning. You dare to do it but don't dare to admit it. You bullied an orphan and a widow. Do you still have a conscience!?"
The moment Wang Li spoke, the people behind the old man also began cursing.
The villagers who had followed Li Chengyuan were silent, but when the people started cursing, someone couldn't help but shout, "What are you saying!? Your Chen family is shameless, and now you're blaming our Li family? "
"That's right! Shameless people. We're all from the same village. You should be drowned in a pig cage for doing such a thing. How dare you stand up for us!? "
"Cheng Hui is gone. Death is the most important thing. He should be buried in peace. Are you still human for making a fuss at this time?"
…
The two groups of people were in a mess. The people behind Li Dong looked at each other, clearly not expecting such a scene.
Others didn't know the cause of the matter, but Li Dong had a rough guess.
Chen Jing was actually from Chen Jiawan!
This was something Li Dong hadn't expected. He had lived in Chen Jiawan for quite some time when he was young, but he really didn't recognize Chen Jing.
Thinking that Chen Jing was from Chen Jiawan, and they were acquaintances, Li Dong felt a headache coming on.
Li Chenghui was really something!
Even rabbits wouldn't eat the grass near their nests, but Li Chenghui had actually eaten the entire village!
But now wasn't the time to pursue the matter. Li Chenghui was dead, and he was going to be buried today. With so many people watching, the matter couldn't be allowed to continue.
The two groups of people were getting more and more quarreling, to the point that they were about to start fighting.
Li Dong hurriedly went forward and shouted, "Listen to me!"
But at this moment, no one took Li Dong seriously. Li Dong's shout only made everyone quiet for two seconds before they started cursing again.
That wasn't all. It wasn't known who started it, but soon, five or six people from both sides started fighting.
Li Dong's eyes flashed with anger!
No matter how much he looked down on Li Chenghui, Li Chenghui was still his uncle and his father's brother.
Now that he was dead, these people were causing trouble at this juncture. It could be said that they weren't leaving any face for the Li family.
Seeing that the crowd was in chaos, Li Dong turned around and shouted, "Old Zhou!"
Zhou Haidong hurriedly walked over with eight people. This time, they were acting as drivers for the higher-ups Far away. Not only had Zhou Haidong and Zheng Long arrived, but Wang Cheng and the other veterans were also here.
Upon hearing Li Dong's shout, Zhou Haidong immediately knew what to do.
Li Dong shot a glance at Chen Rui and company and said in a deep voice, "Pull the Chen family away. It's not appropriate for them to cause trouble at this time!"
Although he said that, Li Dong secretly signaled Zhou Haidong with his eyes.
Zhou Haidong had been with Li Dong for a long time, so he naturally understood what he meant.
He immediately instructed the people around him, "Listen to General Manager Li, let's pull the fight!"
Zhou Haidong's words of "pulling the fight" were meaningful. Zheng Long and the others had also worked with Zhou Haidong for a long time, and Wang Cheng and the others had been comrades for many years. Who wouldn't understand what he meant?
As soon as he finished speaking, the few of them rushed into the crowd like wolves and tigers.
Following that, a few screams came from the crowd.
Hu Wanlin, Chen Rui, and the others behind Li Dong all raised their eyebrows. They didn't expect Li Dong to be so vigilant at this juncture.
Although they didn't think of using Li Dong's weakness for the time being, if Li Dong said that they would kill or cripple them, and something really happened in the end, it would be Li Dong's fault.
But now Li Dong didn't say that, and these bodyguards said that they would pull the fight.
In the end, if something really happened, it would be an accidental injury. At most, it would be blamed on a few bodyguards, and Li Dong wouldn't have much to do with it.
No matter what Chen Rui and the others thought, the strength of seven or eight veterans was definitely not exaggerated.
In less than three minutes, more than 20 people from the Chen family were all knocked down.
The only one still standing was the old man who was arguing with Li Chengyuan.
The crowd suddenly quieted down, and only the Chen family could be heard lying on the ground and moaning.
Seeing that everyone was stunned, Li Dong stared at the old man of the Chen family and said in a deep voice, "Seventh Master, can you listen to me now?"
The old man's mouth twitched. He looked at the few men behind Li Dong who were like wolves and tigers, and then looked at the large group of guests who seemed to have some status next to them.
Then the old man saw the long motorcade behind the hearse.
At this moment, Old Chen was a little timid and regretful. He said with difficulty, "Go ahead."
"Let's not talk about anything else first. Today is the day of my uncle's burial. This matter can't be delayed! Whoever causes trouble will be slapping the Li family's face, and it will be an irreconcilable feud! "
Li Dong knew that it was useless to talk about the law and reason with the Chen family at this time.
The more remote the place was, the more unreasonable they were. It was natural for them to bully the weak and fear the strong. If he didn't subdue them, the Chen family would definitely cause trouble today.
Old Chen's face was a little ugly. He looked at the Chen family lying on the ground and suppressed his anger. "But you can't be so heavy-handed!"
Li Dong sneered and said, "You really misunderstood this matter. I just asked someone to pull the fight. It was really not intentional."
After saying that, he didn't care how he reacted and said to the Li family who were still stunned, "Go up the mountain first, we'll talk about this later!"
Only then did everyone wake up from the shock and hurriedly got to work.
Seeing that things were on the right track, Li Dong said to Old Chen, "After my uncle's burial, we'll talk about other things. Seventh Master, have a safe journey, I won't send you off!"
Old Chen's face was a little gloomy. Seeing that the Chen family who had just fallen to the ground were slowly getting up, he knew that their injuries were not serious, and he let out a sigh of relief.
Without looking at Li Dong, Old Chen shouted, "Let's go back!"
As he said that, he turned to Li Dong and said, "Dongzi, you have the ability, but my Chen family is not useless. We have to be reasonable no matter where we go. I'll wait for you to give me an explanation!"
Li Dong didn't say anything, and Old Chen didn't wait for him to reply. He turned around and left with everyone.
