Just at this moment, it was unknown who had spread the news about the situation here. The villagers had already gathered around, holding hoes, poles, and sticks.
"What are you doing?" Chief Willson, the director of the township, became flustered when he saw the situation and yelled at the villagers who had gathered around.
At this point, the other officials also panicked. Mr. Smith hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "Fellow villagers, fellow villagers, don’t be agitated, what exactly happened?"
"On what grounds are you arresting Boss Wang?"
"That’s right, Boss Wang is a good person, why are you arresting him?"
"You officials only know how to arrest good people. Do you want to leave us no choice but to live? It’s not easy for our village to have someone like Boss Wang who cares about everyone, yet you want to take him away. We won’t agree!"
At this time, Alvin Brown also became angry and said in a deep voice, "I heard everything just now. Peter is right. You need evidence for everything. You want to arrest people without any basis. Who gave you the authority? You even want to frame Peter. I’ll fight you."
After saying this, he was about to charge forward with a stone in his hand.
Seeing how fierce Alvin Brown was, Peter hurriedly stopped him and said, "Grandpa, don’t be impulsive, we are reasonable people, let’s reason."
Looking at the angry villagers holding various weapons, Mr. Smith hurriedly said, "Peter is right, let’s reason, we won’t make a mess, everyone, don’t be impulsive."
One of the villagers pointed at the middle-aged man who had targeted Peter earlier and said, "It’s him who wants to arrest Boss Wang."
Hearing this, everyone’s gaze was fixed on him.
"You, you, don’t make a scene."
Everyone was a bit panicked, fearing that they were on the verge of inciting a rebellion.
Mr. Morris was also frightened. His arrival was mainly to support the situation, and he didn’t really want to do anything. Seeing the situation now, he panicked. If this really caused a rebellion, it would cost him his life. He hurriedly shouted, "Fellow villagers, I will give you an explanation for this matter. Don’t get excited, don’t get excited."
Actually, Peter didn’t want to make a big deal out of this, so he shouted, "Don’t get excited, everyone. The government will stand up for us."
Peter’s prestige in the village was now quite high. Hearing his words, the villagers stopped.
Mr. Morris said, "It’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
"Are you still going to arrest Boss Wang?"
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, this is not what everyone thinks. Mr. Dexter from the provincial capital came here today to ask Comrade_Wang_Xiaofei to help treat his son’s illness."
Javier Carter was also taken aback. He never thought that trying to intimidate Peter would cause such a commotion, and he was even more panicked in his heart.
He was certain that Peter was extraordinary.
Thinking that his son had offended someone like Peter, Javier Carter knew he had to resolve the issue properly.
With the newfound wealth, Javier Carter learned a lot more. He knew that there really were such experts in the world, people who could not be sought, who were above the law. If Peter were such a person, the problem would be huge.
Javier Carter had already investigated Peter’s family situation, and it was impossible for Peter’s sudden special abilities to be passed down within the family. This meant that there was someone secretly teaching Peter. Since Peter was already so powerful, the person hiding in the shadows must be even stronger. Even if he managed to get Peter into prison, the hidden person might come and wipe out his entire family.
No, this matter must be resolved!
Javier Carter had thought of too much in an instant, and he had made up his mind.
With sincerity on his face, Javier Carter looked at Peter and said, "Mr_Wang, this is truly a misunderstanding. I came here personally with sincerity. I have heard about your amazing medical skills. Now my son has inexplicably become paralyzed and none of the many doctors and experts we have consulted can cure him. Please, considering that I am old and have only one son, help him."
Hearing Javier Carter’s words, the villagers looked at Peter.
Peter, of course, understood Javier Carter’s thoughts. This cunning old man could change his tactics; it wouldn’t be that easy.
"Okay, everyone, disperse. Mr. Dexter wants to discuss the treatment with Peter Brown. What are you doing here?" Thomas Carter, the secretary of the township, saw the situation and shouted at the villagers.
Then he looked at Alvin Brown and said, "Chuck, get everyone out of here. Don’t interfere with their business."
Peter also knew that the next step was to talk about the deal, and there would be no more trouble. He smiled at the villagers and said, "Everyone, go back to your business. There’s nothing more to see here."
"Alright, since Boss Wang has said so, you guys go ahead. We’ll guard outside, and whoever wants to arrest you will have to get through us first."
As they spoke, the villagers really dispersed. For them, Peter had brought them a lot of wealth, and he was a great benefactor. They would not let anything happen to him.
Watching the villagers finally leave, the officials heaved a sigh of relief. They were curious about how Peter had gained the villagers’ trust and wondered what exactly he had done here.
