Thus, all the villagers' votes were immediately held. Yang Tieliang did not call for a secret ballot, and directly used his hand to decide the ownership of the Jade Spring Mountain Villa.
Furthermore, being stared at by the masses, no one would dare to go against the opinions of the majority of the people. Even if there were people who were unwilling to withdraw their Jade Spring Mountain Villa, they would have to worry about the consequences of offending themselves and the majority of the villagers, and thus, they had no choice but to go along with it.
Moreover, Yang Tieliang did a trick. He made people who disagreed to take back their Jade Spring Mountain Villa raise their hands, instead of letting people who agreed to take back their Jade Spring Mountain Villa raise their hands.
If he let those who agreed to withdraw their Jade Spring Mountain Villa raise their hands, Yang Tieliang was worried that someone would choose to stand aside and watch because they didn't want to offend Yang Fann, and that it would be a different story if someone who didn't agree to withdraw their Jade Spring Mountain Villa raised his hand. Even if some people were unhappy, they still had to consider the thoughts of the majority of the people, as well as the possibility of encountering the enmity and retaliation of the other villagers.
In the end, there were less than 30 people who raised their hands, indicating that they did not agree to take back their Jade Spring Mountain Villa. There were around 200 villagers who were present, so there was no need to talk about the results of the voting.
Yang Tieliang was shocked, he thought that since he had made such meticulous arrangements, discredited Wu Tie, lured them with huge benefits, and even used such a rascally action to vote, no one should be able to raise their hands. In the end, there were still 30 people who raised their hands and did not agree to retract their Jade Spring Mountain Villa, this was truly out of his expectations.
Yang Tieliang looked at the people who raised their hands gloomily. His eyes were filled with viciousness as he thought that he would make these people proud sooner or later. But now was not the time to deal with them, so he decided to let them be proud for a while.
Most of the people who raised their hands and disagreed with Jade Spring Mountain Villa taking back were Yang Fann's close relatives, such as Yang Fann's Fourth Uncle Yang Xiangcheng, his son Yang Biao, as well as a few Jade Spring Mountain Villa employees and their families. Of course, there was also Yang Sanmao's grandfather.
As for Ma Wensheng and his group of comrades, I'm sorry, they are not from Poplar Gully and don't have the qualifications to vote, even if they wanted to raise their hands, it wouldn't be of any use.
However, Ma Wensheng and the rest continued to stand not too far away, staring coldly at Yang Tieliang. They and Poplar Gully people had different interests, Poplar Gully people retracted Jade Spring Mountain Villa s in order to obtain the huge benefit of Jade Spring Mountain Villa s. However, Ma Wensheng's interest was tied to Yang Fann's, so without Jade Spring Mountain Villa s, they had no job.
Ma Wensheng and the others weren't stupid. There were so many people in Poplar Gully, and so many were willing to work in Jade Spring Mountain Villa. How could they let outsiders continue to stay in this place?
Just after a few days of comfortable lives, this group of shameless villains wanted to smash their rice bowls. Ma Wensheng's group of people couldn't wait any longer and wanted to rush forward to teach Yang Tieliang a lesson.
As the saying goes, breaking people's road to wealth is like killing their parents. At this moment, Ma Wensheng and his men even had the heart to kill Yang Tieliang!
After leaving the Jade Spring Mountain Villa, although Ma Wensheng's group wouldn't lose their road to riches, one could imagine that there wouldn't be a boss like Yang Fann who would give them, ordinary security guards, such generous treatment. In fact, it was only about the same as losing half of their road to riches.
Yang Tieliang was also very smart, otherwise, he would not have thought of so many tricks to deal with Yang Fann. He had long seen through the unfriendly eyes of Ma Wensheng's group of veteran soldiers, otherwise, why would he hold a vote and incite the villagers to snatch the Jade Spring Mountain Villa from him!
It would be best if Yang Fann stood out to stop the villagers when they occupied Jade Spring Mountain Villa. That way, Yang Tieliang could legitimately let the villagers beat him up. If only he could cripple him, then he would never have to worry about revenge from Yang Fann!
However, Yang Fann was still the boss of Jade Spring Mountain Villa, and Ma Wensheng and the other veterans still listened to him. Withdrawing his Jade Spring Mountain Villa, it was equivalent to smashing the rice bowls of Ma Wensheng's group.
That was why Yang Tieliang did not hesitate to give a portion of his Jade Spring Mountain Villa to the ignorant villagers and had them vote to take back their Jade Spring Mountain Villa. He was doing things according to the will of the majority of the villagers, so no one could say anything.
This was called 'the law is huge', but one must also consider the situation of the people. The vast majority of the villagers had to take back Yang Fann's Jade Spring Mountain Villa, so how could a small branch of the village stop him?
Not only couldn't he stop them, he also had to comply with the will of the people and act according to the will of the people.
It had to be said that Yang Tieliang had chosen a very good opportunity. It was simply impossible.
The village chief that was just elected had not officially taken office yet, and the new Village Committee team had not even officially started running, it was precisely when he, the village branch chief, had the most power, which was why things had progressed so smoothly. If the new village chief, Yang Ren, had a stable footing, it would be almost impossible to achieve the results that he had today.
The moment the voting was over, Yang Tieliang immediately gathered all of the members of the Village Committee as well as some of the village representatives to the Village Committee meeting to discuss how to take back the Jade Spring Mountain Villa.
The meeting went on for four hours and ended in the middle of the night. Yang Tieliang was still full of energy and didn't feel tired at all as he walked home under the sky full of stars.
The next morning.
Just after eight in the morning, Yang Fann received a notification from Poplar Gully, telling him to go to a Village Committee meeting to discuss the ownership of Jade Spring Mountain Villa.
Both Yang Xiangdong and Lili were going with Yang Fann, who refused to let them rest at home. A few clowns, they could not do anything to him.
Yang Sanmao also arrived at Yang Fann's house early and was prepared to argue with Yang Tieliang and those guys. At first, Yang Fann didn't plan to agree, but after seeing that Yang Sanmao was very determined, he let him follow along to broaden his horizons.
As for Ma Wensheng and his comrades, Yang Fann didn't bring any of them, and told them to continue watching over Jade Spring Mountain Villa, instructing them not to think too much into it. Just do your job well, and without their consent, no one is allowed to take a step into Jade Spring Mountain Villa!
Furthermore, five more official employees of Jade Spring Mountain Villa had arrived at Yang Fann's home and were preparing to advance and retreat together with him. It was they and their families who raised their hands up yesterday, firmly rejecting the retraction of Jade Spring Mountain Villa.
Not everyone was interested in profit. These few people knew who gave them the good days and also knew how to be grateful. No matter how much benefits Yang Tieliang promised them, they were not willing to betray Yang Fann and Jade Spring Mountain Villa!
