Zhang Xiaoshan exploded on the spot and shouted at the workers.
"Do you know what you're doing? Kidnapping a primary school teacher by force is a crime that can land you in jail."
The workers wavered a bit.
But no one dared let go of Xu Jing; instead, they turned their attention to Liu Qiang on the mound of earth.
Liu Qiang let out a cold laugh and jumped down from the mound.
"Who is this brat? Not even fully grown yet, are you? You have no right to speak here. Fetch your village head."
Zhang Xiaoshan was immediately seething with rage; this idiot really had a death wish.
Ge Xiue stepped forward and confronted Liu Qiang.
"Boss Liu, watch your mouth. Wu Damming is not here, and he is our acting village chief."
"Right, we support Little Shan. What he says represents us,"
A group of villagers echoed in agreement.
One hundred percent support rate.
"Acting village chief?"
