Chapter 4037: You Should Just Call the Police

Zhao Desan nodded again.

The triangular-eyed man said to the others, "That's right, it's him." Then he turned back to Zhao Desan and said, "Deputy District Mayor, you had people stop the construction site of the ecological tourism city. Now we can't start work, we can't do our jobs, and we're wasting time for nothing. Deputy District Mayor, you need to give us migrant worker brothers a reasonable explanation, right?"

The others followed the triangular-eyed man and chimed in, "That's right!"

Zhao Desan explained to them unhurriedly, "A few migrant worker brothers, the situation is like this: there are many problems in the construction of the tourism city site. According to the province's intentions, we need to carry out a comprehensive safety and quality inspection of the site. We can only start construction after ensuring there are no safety or quality hazards in every completed process. This is the regulation; it's not that we want to make things difficult for you migrant worker brothers. I hope everyone can understand our government's work; this is also for the sake of safety."

The triangular-eyed man squinted at Zhao Desan and shouted, "Deputy District Mayor, stop with all that nonsense. What we care about most now is when we can start work. We've been resting for several days. It's not easy for us who have come out to work; our whole families are waiting at home for us to support them. With one word from you government officials, you've laid us off. Are you telling us to drink the northwest wind? Today, we brothers are waiting for your answer, Deputy District Mayor!"

Zhao Desan looked at their aggressive posture, forced a smile, and tried to keep his tone peaceful as he said, "A few brothers, I've already explained it very clearly to you. It's not that I want to stop the construction, but that there are too many problems at the site. We must conduct a comprehensive investigation before we can start normal construction. This is the system and the requirement!"

"We don't care about any requirements or not, we just want to have work to do as soon as possible!" said one of the slightly fatter guys.

"You officials stand there and talk without feeling the pain. You eat the public's food; how could you care about the lives of us migrant workers!" another person chimed in, grumbling.

"You son of a bitch, you're a Deputy District Mayor, stop giving us that crap!" Before Zhao Desan could continue to explain, the triangular-eyed man shouted with foul language.

"This brother, don't be anxious, don't get angry, let me finish what I have to say, okay?" Zhao Desan said, trying to be patient. He wasn't particularly afraid of having a falling out with these few people, but because these people were migrant workers and represented a different social status, Zhao Desan didn't want to be hard on them easily. However, he also had his bottom line. If his patient explanation couldn't get their understanding and they insisted on causing trouble in the unit, then he would have no choice but to take strong measures and drive them out.

The triangular-eyed man didn't seem to want to buy Zhao Desan's account anymore. His small eyes widened, and just as he was about to continue getting angry and cursing, another man beside him stopped him and said, "Fine, then let's listen to what you have to say, but you little brat, don't keep pushing us around. You officials only know how to fool people. Otherwise, don't blame us brothers for being impolite to you!"

Zhao Desan ignored the triangular-eyed man's attitude and continued patiently, "How about this: you tell me the situation from beginning to end, and I'll be responsible for recording it for you. Then I'll go talk to your boss about this matter. If your boss has problems in handling this, then I definitely won't let him off. How about that?" This was a strategy Zhao Desan had thought of on the spot, thinking that since you, Ju Weidong, are using this to deal with me, don't blame me, Zhao Desan, for using your own methods against you. Also, since he already knew this matter was orchestrated by someone behind the scenes, then fine, let Ju Weidong bear the responsibility.

"This..." The migrant worker who had just stopped the triangular-eyed man didn't expect Zhao Desan to use such a move, and for a moment, he was speechless.

As the leader among them, the triangular-eyed man's brain was still flexible. Seeing Zhao Desan shift the matter to the boss, Ju Weidong, he immediately changed his face and said shamelessly, "Deputy District Mayor, we know it's not easy for you guys with iron rice bowls. We don't want to do anything to anyone; what we want is work to do and money to earn. As long as you can let the construction site start, we don't care whose responsibility it is." The triangular-eyed man was clearly not falling for Zhao Desan's trick.

Zhao Desan smiled dumbly and then said, "This brother, what you're saying isn't right. The country attaches great importance to protecting the legitimate rights and interests of migrant workers. Although the construction site has stopped, according to relevant regulations and policies, your remuneration must still be paid. Unless your boss is cheating and deceiving and unwilling to pay you this remuneration, if that's the case, we must hold your boss accountable. You aren't cooperating with me properly, but instead causing trouble like this—is it because you don't want me to work here?" Saying this, Zhao Desan keenly watched the triangular-eyed man's expression. He saw the triangular-eyed man's brows knit tightly, and he seemed a bit nervous.

Seeing this, Zhao Desan continued, "To tell you the truth, even if I promised you now, the provincial leaders won't let construction start until the safety and quality hazards at the site are investigated. If you insist on starting construction, then your boss, including you people who came here to cause trouble, will definitely be in big trouble. So, coming here to cause trouble with me won't have any effect!"

Hearing Zhao Desan say this, the triangular-eyed man seemed to realize that Zhao Desan knew something, so his knit brows relaxed slightly. The triangular-eyed man turned his eyes twice, laughed 'hehe,' and said, "I don't care about any boss or not. I just know it's your district that stopped the work, and we brothers have no work to do. So, I'm talking to you, the person in charge. If you don't solve it, I'll stay here with you, and you won't be able to do anything else, and I'll even accompany you when you sleep."

Zhao Desan felt a wave of nausea. He hated this kind of rascal the most. Seeing that the triangular-eyed man was no longer listening to reason, he brought out his second move and said to the triangular-eyed man, "This brother, I've already explained the logic to you very clearly. If you keep causing trouble like this, it's just unreasonable. The government is here to benefit the common people. If you affect the normal work of the government, the consequences are unimaginable."

"You son of a bitch, stop giving me that crap. Since I have the guts to come, I have the guts to 'drink a pot.' Don't look at us brothers as migrant workers on the construction site; we aren't easy to mess with either. So what if you're an official? Can officials just not take us seriously? Let me tell you, I'm not afraid of you officials!" The triangular-eyed man said arrogantly while pointing at his own nose with his thumb. ===== CHAPTER 4038 =====
