He became anxious and wanted to stop it, but it was too late. The villagers had already signed the demolition contract.

“To be honest with you, that ex-convict friend of mine whom you look down on arranged this. He's acquainted with the people from Reinz Pharmaceutical,” Douglas said.

Otherwise, why would they help him with such a huge favour?

“Son of a b*tch!” His teeth clenched. “Just you wait! You won't get away from this!”

As he didn't dare to hide this matter, he quickly called Sam to inform him.

As expected, Sam hit the roof and gave Jayden an earful.

Jayden didn't dare to say a thing; he knew he was in the wrong.

Only when the other party finished scolding did Jayden speak in a soft voice. “Mr. Clemons, could you please tell Officer Hugh to rest assured?”

“I will get rid of Zeke Williams even if I die doing so.”

“Don't mess around without my orders,” Sam reprimanded.

“So, you're saying that Reinz Pharmaceutical has offered a monthly salary of thirty thousand to the villagers to plant Rhodiola Rosea?”

Jayden nodded. “Exactly.”

Sam mused. “Money never sleeps. It's impossible for Reinz Pharmaceutical to cultivate a large number of Rhodiola Rosea for no reason at all.”

“That Rhodiola Rosea is probably one of the rare ten herbs with medicinal value.”

“I'll go and investigate it in two days. Don't act rashly, listen to my orders.”

“Understood,” Jayden replied.

After hanging up the phone, Sam immediately contacted his mother, Madeleine. “Mom, come with me to the Hill village.”

“I may have discovered some valuable herbs.”

Madeleine's eyes glistened. “No problem.”

As a TCM practitioner, she was well aware of the significance of discovering valuable herbs.

Only after she arrived did she realize that Zeke had yet to return home.

This made Dawn anxious. “You have no conscience, Lacey. Zeke went to the Hill village and didn't return all night. Aren't you worried about his safety?”

“I called him last night. He left the Hill village a long time ago and went to a friend's house for a drink last night. Don't worry about him,” Lacey said.

Dawn heaved a sigh of relief. But deep down, she wondered if this friend of the Great Marshal was a big shot like him.

“Lacey,” she continued. “What are you going to do about the demolition?”

“If worse comes to worst, I can only increase the demolition compensation,” Lacey said.

Dawn shook her head. “It's useless, Lacey. I doubled the compensation yesterday, but they won't budge.”

“What? Getting them to move out is harder than I thought.” Lacey had a splitting headache.

“Gosh, what should we do?”

At that moment, a knock on the door sounded.

Lacey went to open the door. It was Zeke who had come back with a pile of documents in his hands.

“What took you so long?” Lacey told him off.

Zeke smiled. “I went to solve the problems with the demolition last night.”

Lacey sniffed his body and could smell the booze from his breath. “What's with that excuse? Just tell me if you went for a drink.”

“Anyway, you came back just in time. I was thinking of engaging in a tug of war regarding the demolition at the Hill village. What do you think?”
