Chapter 376: Chapter 153 A Super Busy Day, One Dish Multiple Ways [9000 words]_5

Ren Zhong looked up at the sky, "See for yourself."

Above the sky, a massive projection unfolded.

Voices of dialogue, whistling flight sounds, and explosions began to emanate from the speakers of Starfire Resources.

It was Yang Bingzhong, with a flick of his fingertip, playing the video Ren Zhong had recorded earlier.

Tang Shuying understood the implication of the scene instantly, decisively shut her mouth, and stopped questioning.

After a long while, the people of Starfire Town had seen the complete story behind the battle between Ren Zhong and Lin Bei.

The entire scene fell silent.

Many people secretly looked at Ren Zhong standing high on the wall with eyes full of complex emotions like fear, awe, and gratitude.

Everyone’s hearts were filled with mixed feelings at this moment.

Some were thanking Ren Zhong for ridding them of evil; others were amazed why there could be such a good person as Ren Zhong in the world.

Thinking from their position, if they were Ren Zhong, in such a situation, they would never risk their lives to save others; they would flee as fast as they could.

But he saved them.

When betrayed by Lin Wang and Bei Lihui, the shock and anger on his face resonated with people, as if they felt his deepest despair and heartbreak.

He truly treated Lin Wang and Bei Lihui as comrades for life and death.

He dared to trust others with his back!

He really is a great person!

Just like those characters in TV dramas.

No, even TV dramas couldn’t find a person like him.

Last time, Ren Zhong established an image of kindness among the people during his reverse maneuver while begging, gaining silent "public support."

This time, through "betrayed kindness," Ren Zhong rebuilt a good person persona far stronger than before.

The video continued to progress as the people saw Ren Zhong furiously cursing at Lin Wang for betraying him.

Even though it was just a video, people felt a shared anger and bitterness, gritting their teeth, wishing they were there to help Ren Zhong fight Lin Wang.

How dare you treat the brother who entrusted his life to you like this!

Just when everyone assumed Ren Zhong was doomed, a miracle happened.

Ren Zhong suddenly erupted, turning the tables from a hopeless position!

The miraculous scene of the Second Level warrior killing Lin Wang with overwhelming force unfolded!

It was a classic exhilarating scene from an action-packed novel.

The Scavengers watched, their blood boiling and minds captivated, unable to calm down for a long time.

As the atmosphere fully matured, Ren Zhong finally spoke again, "Everyone, please listen to what I have to say."

Now, no one interrupted Ren Zhong anymore.

"The relocation is unavoidable; it’s an objective fact. I know it’s not easy for you all, and I’m not the kind of person who profits from others’ misfortunes like Lin Wang. If we’re to move, let’s move thoroughly. I’ve decided to forgive your and Lin Wang’s debts. I only threatened you with this as a temporary measure."

"I also hope you can understand Yang’s difficulties. For many years, has Yang ever mistreated..."

"The output from the abandoned mine has been declining day by day..."

"Relocation aligns with the needs of normal development..."

"Lastly, I have to tell you some good news! Yang has already made proper arrangements! Thanks to his mediation... the new company is prepared to implement the highest commission of 20%, with more favorable conditions!"

This beautiful, dream-like lie from Yang Bingzhong in the prior timeline had also become Ren Zhong’s.

If Ren Zhong were still the Ren Zhong of the past, his words would lack weight; some might question him.

But in just ten minutes, Ren Zhong had thoroughly established his persona as a "Genius Warrior" and "pure-hearted good person."

His words were very convincing.

Following Ren Zhong’s declaration, everything was settled immediately.

The Scavengers turned from sorrow to joy, even apologizing profusely, stating that today’s events were a huge misunderstanding after all.

It turned out that Yang had been so considerate.

No one knew who the despicable scumbag spreading rumors was.

Just then, Yang Bingzhong’s voice echoed from the speakers.

"Now you know why I couldn’t be bothered to come out and explain? Alright, alright, everyone disperse. While there’s still time in the afternoon, go and hunt more."

At the same time, he sent a message to Ren Zhong, "How did you come up with the idea to lie to these scavengers?"

Yang had doubts in his heart; this didn’t fit with Ren Zhong’s "good person persona."

Ren Zhong sighed, "Actually, um, I’d also like to plead for leniency from Yang on behalf of these scavengers. They are truly pitiful. After all, Starfire Town is such a big place, there’s always some output. Even if Yang moves away, you could actually set up a new company here, or open a new branch?"
