Chapter 1177: A Wise Man Doesn't Fight When the Odds Are Against Him

~7 min read 1,291 words

"Daqiangzi."

Tian Bowen extended his finger and poked the thin young man's forehead heavily, a look of contempt on his face.

"You even brought a knife. What's the matter, you dare to hack me?"

Daqiangzi was poked by his finger, his head tilted backward violently, his footing unstable, and he took several steps backward.

Tian Bowen laughed arrogantly, lowered his head slightly, and patted his neck with his hand.

"Come, hack here. If you don't hack, I'll hack you... Come, hurry up."

Daqiangzi's face was pale, and the hand holding the knife was shaking. There was some fear in his eyes, but more of it was stubbornness.

"Snap!"

Tian Bowen raised his hand and slapped Daqiangzi heavily on the face.

Daqiangzi's body was already thin, and this slap made him stagger, and he sat on the ground with a *thud*.

Half of his face swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and blood flowed down from the corner of his mouth.

"Fuck your mother."

Tian Bowen kicked Daqiangzi again, knocking him flat on the ground, and then stepped on Daqiangzi's face with one foot.

"Speaking of which, our families are somewhat related. Your family is relatively difficult. I saw your family was pitiful, so I let you come to the mine to learn to drive, but I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful."

Daqiangzi was still holding the knife, and the trace of fear in his eyes was now covered by anger. Tian Bowen didn't notice.

This guy bent over, looking at Daqiangzi with a cold smile: "Fuck, you broke the car, shouldn't you be the one to fix it? I deducted your wages, and you're still not convinced, you ungrateful dog."

A red glint flashed in Daqiangzi's eyes. Just as he was about to raise the kitchen knife to hack at Tian Bowen's leg, he heard the roar of a car engine.

An engineering vehicle at the mine climbed up from the mine pit, belching black smoke, and stopped beside them.

The driver's door opened, and a burly man with dark skin jumped out of the car.

He glanced at the few people in front of him, and finally, his gaze fell on Tian Bowen, and he said indifferently.

"Secretary, what are you doing?"

Looking at the man in front of him, Tian Bowen lifted the foot that was stepping on Daqiangzi. Clearly, he had some misgivings about this man.

But he didn't know that the arrival of this man had saved him from a knife hack.

"What am I doing? Ask Daqiangzi himself, why did he come to find me with a kitchen knife?"

The man squatted down and helped Daqiangzi up: "What's going on?"

Daqiangzi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "The day before yesterday, the car broke down. He told me to fix it, but the money for fixing the car was to be deducted from my wages."

"Did you hear what he said?" Tian Bowen looked at the man: "He is still an apprentice. He broke the car, so if he doesn't pay for the repairs, who should?"

The man put an arm around Daqiangzi's shoulder, glanced at the lackeys, and then asked Tian Bowen: "How much did the repairs cost? Deduct it from my wages, and settle Daqiangzi's wages."

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Tian Bowen clicked his tongue and gave a thumbs up: "The workers below all say you, Sun Wang, are righteous. Today I've finally seen it. It's fine to deduct the repair money from your wages, but his wages can't be settled for the time being."

"What's the matter?" Sun Wang raised an eyebrow: "Secretary, killing someone is just a head-off. The repair money was deducted from my wages, why can't Daqiangzi's wages be settled?"

"It's not the end of the month yet, what are you settling?" Tian Bowen said coldly: "Sun Wang, I give you some face for your brother's sake, don't think I'm afraid of you."

"You still owe me two months' wages." Daqiangzi's eyes were bloodshot, and his teeth were grinding. If Sun Wang hadn't been holding him, he really would have raised the knife.

"Owe you two months?" Tian Bowen laughed: "Whenever I'm happy, I'll settle it. If I'm never happy, then you'll have to keep waiting."

"I'll kill you, damn it."

Daqiangzi raised the knife, wanting to break free from Sun Wang's arm.

But with his small build, how could he break free? He was controlled firmly by Sun Wang.

"Alright." Sun Wang looked at Tian Bowen with an expressionless face and forcibly took Daqiangzi away: "I won't drive the car anymore, find someone else. Also, I'll come to collect my wages for these past few days tomorrow.

I hope the Secretary is in a good mood. If you aren't in a good mood and I don't get my wages, I won't be in a good mood either. If I'm not in a good mood, I don't know what I might do, so don't blame me for not warning you."

A flash of ferocity appeared in Tian Bowen's eyes. Sun Wang's final words were a blatant threat, and in front of so many brothers, it made him lose face. If the wages were just given like that tomorrow, where would he put his face?

Watching Sun Wang's back, Tian Bowen's eyes narrowed slightly, looking very dangerous.

"Fuck, you really think I'm afraid of you? Since you're challenging me. Fine, I'll see what the consequences are if you aren't in a good mood."

"Factory Manager!" A lackey said fiercely: "Tonight I'll take some people and break Sun Wang's legs. Let's see if he's still arrogant."

Tian Bowen waved his hand: "No rush. He wants to play, then I'll play with him."

………………

"I want to kill him." Daqiangzi struggled and roared: "Brother Wang, let me go."

After walking seven or eight hundred meters, Sun Wang let go of Daqiangzi: "If you want to kill him, then go. I won't stop you."

Daqiangzi was stunned on the spot, completely at a loss.

Looking at his behavior, Sun Wang chuckled: "Do you know what it means to be a wise man who doesn't fight when the odds are against him? They have so many people, you have a broken kitchen knife, what advantage can you get?"

Daqiangzi stiffened his neck: "General He used a kitchen knife to start the revolution. I can't start a revolution, but I can't hack that dog-fucking Tian Bowen?"

Sun Wang shook his head helplessly and put his arm around Daqiangzi's shoulder again: "Actually, I've long been displeased with him, but to deal with him, brute force won't work.

He is always followed by lackeys, and he has a close relationship with several officers at the town police station. If you really hurt him today, even if it's just a scratch, he can get a serious injury assessment and make you sit in prison until you rot. Is it worth it?

If you go in, that old hooligan Tian Bowen, can he let your parents go? And your sister, have you thought about it? If Tian Bowen does something to your sister, what's the point of killing him in the end?"

Daqiangzi stopped talking, tears streaming down his eyes: "I'm just not reconciled. I worked hard for several months, he doesn't give me wages, why?"

"Don't worry." Sun Wang comforted him: "I will definitely get your wages back, but this matter needs to be planned carefully, you can't act recklessly."

The two were talking when they reached the entrance of the village and suddenly heard a car horn behind them.

"Beep beep……"

Sun Wang looked back and saw it was a taxi. Looking at the license plate number, he immediately laughed.
