Chapter 251: More Shameless Than Gangsters

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The film crew drove up the mountain.

After finding a suitable place, they set up the equipment.

The prop teacher went to prepare the red and blue woven bag. Inside was the prop used as a corpse. The woven bag was filled to the brim.

Zilong was talking to Jiang Xun about the positioning during the scene.

Suddenly, a group of people rushed over.

This time, there were not many people in Team B. They were going to leave after shooting the scene, intending to finish up quickly.

The people who came surrounded them. The other party had a clear advantage in terms of numbers.

From the looks of it, this did not seem like a good thing.

Director Chen’s assistant stepped forward and asked, “Everyone, we are filming here. Please step back.”

“Who allowed you to film here!” A middle-aged man said loudly in an unfriendly tone.

Previously, he felt that there was something not right with other party’s presence. However, the other party had a lot of people. The assistant still said in a friendly tone, “We have already applied with the relevant units and obtained permission.”

“No matter who gave you permission, we won’t recognize it!” The middle-aged man still held a shovel in his hand. He slammed the shovel heavily on the ground, “This area belongs to our village. You haven’t applied with us for it! Besides, the relevant units you mentioned haven’t mentioned anything to us. You should leave now!”

“We have the approval documents here.” The assistant frowned slightly. “Besides, it won’t affect you if we film on the mountain. Besides, where did you come from? Why do we need your permission to film here? This mountain belongs to the state and is not privately owned. How can it be yours?”

“If I say it’s ours, it’s ours!” The middle-aged man hit the ground with the shovel again. “Our village has always been at the foot of the mountain. The fruit trees on this mountain are all planted by our village! If you film here, what if you hurt our trees and our bamboo shoots? Also, what if you steal our fruits?!”

The assistant took a deep breath, and he could only say, “No, as you can see, there aren’t many of us here. We’ll finish filming as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible. Also, we’ll restrain our own people and won’t touch your fruit trees. As for the bamboo shoots… we don’t know where they are. Of course, even if we knew, we won’t dig them up. We’re all busy with work.”

“We don’t have that much free time, alright?”

“That won’t do. You can either leave or pay us by the hour!” The middle-aged man said.

At this moment, everyone in the production team understood.

They weren’t afraid of them hurting the fruit trees, secretly picking the fruits, or secretly digging the bamboo shoots. They were all simply excuses.

These people actually wanted to ask them for money.

Looking at their stance, they were confident, and they spoke and did things so skillfully. It seemed that they were also skilled at this from using it to extort people in the past.

Usually, when the other party had fewer people, they could only spend money to avoid trouble.

They should have succeeded quite a few times.

Otherwise, they would not have come up with such a ruckus this time.

Giving money was not something that the assistant could decide.

The assistant turned to look at Zilong.

Zilong frowned. He did not want to argue with these scoundrels, so he asked, “How much do you want?”

The middle-aged man’s eyes darted around. One look and he could tell that he was up to no good.

A production team, filming, they definitely had money!

Those actors were earning millions or tens of millions. How could the production team not have money?

“For each hour… 2,000 yuan!” The middle-aged man stretched out two fingers.

Zilong took a deep breath. Thinking that there were not many scenes to film here, he conservatively estimated that he could finish filming in three hours. He gritted his teeth and agreed. “Alright!”

However, he did not expect the other party to change his mind when he saw that he agreed so readily. “No! 2,000 yuan an hour is too little!”

“Make it 5,000!” The middle-aged man stretched out a hand.

“Don’t get carried away!” Zilong could see that it was because he agreed too readily, so the other party continued testing his bottom line.

If he agreed this time, the other party would definitely raise the price.

How was this a villager? He was even more shameless than gangsters on the streets!

“Not paying? If not, then 6,000 an hour!” When the middle-aged man saw that they had given in, he felt that they were easy to bully and became even more arrogant. “Continue to bargain and it goes up another thousand!”

The film crew was furious.

“We are not bargaining. It’s you who have become even more fierce!” The film crew was furious.

“Exactly, you said 2,000 an hour at the beginning, and we agreed!”
