What if my neighbor forcibly prevents me from building a house?

Legal analysis: First of all, you can solve it through negotiation. If you can't solve it, you can ask the village Committee to help you mediate. If building a house blocks people's things such as feng shui, lighting or inconvenient travel. If all these are not available, the neighbors are just maliciously shielding, and you can solve it through law. You can resort to legal procedures to safeguard your legitimate rights and interests.
