Chapter 88: Chapter 78 Be Cautious _1

Chen Li thought to herself as she quickly finished choosing vegetables with Zhang Yuan. Then, they took the water their daughter poured for them and sat on another couch to rest, waiting for their lunch to be ready and for Li Ming to return.

“Isn’t it nice that they now have a maid to take care of Li Ming?”

…

“Vroom~”

The patrol vehicle was driving down the road. Before long, it arrived outside villa No.3 from villa No.6. As he drew closer, he didn’t immediately went in, but observed from outside. He observed that the five men and four women were weeding in the yard.

Half of the one-acre villa yard had been cleared by them.

He used his telekinesis to check the surroundings. Only after confirming that there was no danger did Li Ming park outside the No.3 villa.

The sound of the car drew the attention of the people in the yard. Seeing Li Ming getting out of the car, there was a flash of joy and a sense of relief in their eyes.

“Okay, everyone take a break. Wash off your sweat, let’s make lunch. After we eat, we will rest a bit before continuing to work.”

Seeing the others looking at him, Li Ming waved his hand: “Chen Qiang, you and the men bring the food into the villa, and later on, the women will clean up the pots and pans, and prepare for cooking. The men will pick the vegetables, and the women will cook. After everyone has washed off their sweat, let’s start cooking. After eating, everyone gets a two-hour rest before we resume work.”

“Alright, guys, follow me to move the stuff.”

After hearing what Li Ming said, Chen Qiang responded loudly. Then, he beckoned to the four men to start unloading the car, noticing there were ten towels on the car, he immediately looked at Li Ming.

“Hand out these towels to everyone to wipe off their sweat.”

Li Ming waved his hand, and Chen Qiang happily agreed. He then took a towel and handed them out one by one. By the time the four men had moved everything, he had just finished distributing the towels.

“Go and wash up quickly.”

Seeing Chen Qiang, who was sweating profusely, walking towards him, Li Ming waved him off, encouraging him to wash up. He stood alone in the villa yard, surveying the scene, looking at the ground where the grass had just been removed. Very few grass roots were left, showing that the work had been thorough.

There were only a few patches where grass roots could be seen, but one round of pesticide should take care of that.

If they were to plant vegetables on this one-acre land, the yield would be significant. But irrigating the crops would be necessary.

Luckily, it was close to Huajiang River.

“I still need to find out more about the situation in the gathering place.”

Li Ming looked around, the area of the villa was extremely vast.

But if they could move everyone from the gathering place here for the construction, it wouldn’t be too difficult.

Thinking of the image in his mind of sixteen villas standing in his field, surrounded by defense facilities and equipped with various auxiliary living equipment, Li Ming couldn’t help feeling satisfied.

After these preparations, he would be free to focus on improving his own strength, and think of ways to return home.

But when considering the gathering place, he couldn’t help frowning again.

He knew the gathering place was not simple as when he left, he discovered a car was following him.

The logic was simple. Even if he had announced that he was taking people to Linjiang villa, why were they still following him?

Moreover, they were following so closely that they didn’t even leave the coverage area of his telekinetic power.

Instead of following him, they could just check the location themselves using an offline map.

They didn’t have to start following him with a car when he left. Was this surveillance? It seemed more like a show of force.

Surely, those in power wanted to gauge his strength.

Why were they trying to probe him?

It certainly wasn’t because they wanted to understand his situation, and then become good friends with him.

If that were the case, why would there be so many people in the gathering place carrying weapons?

So, Li Ming decided to retaliate by using thumbtacks to give them a surprise, bursting tires wasn’t a big deal, at least it could dampen their spirits.

Despite their rush to get here, he didn’t let them go to the first villa that he originally planned to develop, villa No.6, instead, he chose this villa No.3.

Regarding the pre-arranged industrial clothes, food… each of his villas had some food left in them, only the industrial clothes were a coincidence, because they were just stuff left in this villa, he didn’t move them.

Perhaps this wouldn’t prevent them from probing him, but at least it could delay them.

However, no matter what, since the other party was so dishonest, he could not sit back and wait. At least he needed to understand the situation in the gathering place first.

For instance, the extent of their military power, or the type of weapons they had…

Thinking of firearms, Li Ming squinted his eyes.

His city was just a small county town in a developed province. Although the county town was richer than his hometown, it was still a small county. He was skeptical about the presence of guns here.

Even if there were, it was more likely to be privately owned. However, this was still a concern.

“My current telekinesis range is only about a hundred meters, this distance…”

Li Ming considered that he should practice his steel nail shooting more.

Maybe steel nails have limited destructive power, but they’re enough when dealing with humans.

After walking from the garden to villa No.3, Li Ming looked at the empty hall, knowing they were all washing up. He was thinking about how to ask them questions.

Li Ming waited in the villa until they finished cleaning up, then came out to cook. He watched the men picking vegetables while chatting with them. When the vegetables were picked, the women had cleaned up all the pots and pans, and started cooking.

“Brother Ming, where’s Xiuxiu? Why isn’t she here?”

During mealtime, Liu Li approached Li Ming with her hair swept up, and smilingly asked him.

“Xiuxiu? She was too tired and went to sleep at my place. I’ll bring her over to you guys once she wakes up,” Li Ming dismissed her with a light glance, aware that the others were paying attention to his voice.

Too tired?

Asleep?

Everyone’s faces showed understanding. Liu Li carefully looked at Li Ming, noticing that his gaze did not linger on her, she pursed her lips and silently went back to help with the cooking.

Li Ming casually chatted with the men, learning some information about the gathering place in a nonchalant way. But there was nothing very important, instead, they talked more about which woman was flirtatious, beautiful or attractive.

“Brother Ming, Liu Li rarely exchanges food. That day you went was just a coincidence. She’s pretty and doesn’t lack suitors, so besides when she’s very hungry, she hardly ever changes her food,” during the conversation, Chen Qiang quietly told Li Ming.

“Oh, is that so? Okay, thanks, brother.”

Li Ming raised his eyebrows and nodded laughingly, thanking Chen Qiang.

Chen Qiang repeatedly waved his hand, saying it was no big deal. When Li Ming and the others weren’t paying attention, he glanced at someone in the team with a somewhat hesitant look.
