Chapter 324: Argument

Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Chengcai’s mother was so angry that her entire body was trembling!
“Also, don’t go calling people bitch this, bitch that.’ Wen Zi said fiercely. ‘Don’t think that just because you’re old, you can scold Lingyu at will.
“Let me tell you, Old Woman. Lingyu is easygoing, but I’m not. If you dare to scold Lingyu again, I’l tear your mouth apart. Don’t you lord your seniority over me!”
She was Xiao Lingyu’s bodyguard. Her mission was to protect Xiao Lingyu from any harm, whether physically or mentally.
Xiao Chengcai’s mother pointed at Wen Zi and wanted to curse, but she did not know how to refute her.
“You…” Xiao Chengcai’s mother was so angry that her face turned green.
Wen Zi raised her head arrogantly and said, “Grandma Chen, | advise you to have a little self-awareness. Pay the money, and you’ll be fine. Otherwise, just wait to be sent to jail!”
Wen Zi’s words were very direct. The villagers were shocked. The girl was too amazing! She left no room for negotiation!
Xiao Chengcai’’s old mother’s entire body swayed. Her entire body trembled, and her face turned white and green. When she looked at Wen Zi, she was angry, shocked, and a little afraid.
Xiao Chengcai’s expression was tense. His face was green and white, but his eyes revealed fear and uneasiness. However, anger was hidden in his heart.
He didn’t want to pay, but he also didn’t want to go to jail. To not go to jail, he would have to pay. Then, it would mean that he had done all that for nothing.
Wrong! He had attracted the disgust and rejection of the entire village.
Xiao Lingyu looked at the two of them and said coldly, “Uncle Chengcai, Grandma Chen, think about your choices. I will only give you one day to think about it. If you don’t give me an answer by this time tomorrow, I will call the police directly!”
She didnt pity them at all. If they didn’t commit their sins, they wouldn’t be in this state!
They would lose everything and would be looked down upon by the whole village. Unless they had the ability to leave Taoyuan Village!
The purpose of this meeting was to explain to the villagers the appearance of the demolition team. Now that everything was clear, there was no reason for Xiao Lingyu to stay.
Gong Tianhao said softly, ‘Yer, you’re tired too. Let’s go back. Let the village chief and the villagers continue the meeting!”
Xiao Lingyu did not refuse.
As Gong Tianhao helped Xiao Lingyu, his sharp gaze swept over Xiao Chengcai and his mother. This caused the pair’s bodies to shiver. It was terrifying.
Once they met the man’s gaze, they felt fear in the depths of their souls. They were ants that he could crush at any moment.
Then, Gong Tianhao moved his eyes to the village chief. He nodded slightly.
The village chief understood what Gong Tianhao meant.
Xiao Lingyu left, and Wen Zi followed behind with her laptop.
But when she saw the couple cuddling in front of them, Wen Zi secretly stuck out her tongue. The two female bodyguards followed behind this two every day, and they were fed dog food every day.
This made Wen Zi and Yuan Min extremely puzzled. Since their Big Boss was always by Xiao Lingyu’s side, why did he transfer them over?
They had so much free time here.
Thankfully, they were happy here. Mother Xiao was really good at cooking.
No matter how much food she cooked, they would always finish it.
After Xiao Lingyu left, the village committee meeting continued.
No one cared about Xiao Chengcai and his mother anymore.
The village chief said seriously, “Xiao Lingyu believed that the developer would try soft persuasion next.”
The villagers asked, “Village chief, what do you mean by that?”
“Tt means that they will still come to demolish the house. However, it might be different this time. They will give us more compensation.”
“Ah?” The villagers were slightly surprised.
“Now, they only pay 5000 per person. Next time, they might pay 10,000 per person or even 20,000.”
Everyone’s eyes suddenly lit up.
That was good. For a big family, they would get over 100,000 RMB!
With this money, it was enough for them to build a house in the town.
The village chief’s gaze swept across the scene. He saw the expressions of the villagers.
Some people were discussing in low voices. They could definitely be persuaded.
After all, 100,000 was more money than what they could earn in their entire lives.
“Cough cough…” The village chief coughed heavily, drawing everyone’s attention back before saying, “However, Mr. Gong wants me to pass on a message to the villagers. If that’s the case, it’s best not to agree. Those developers won’t succeed.”
“Ah?
“Village chief, what does Young Master Gong mean by that? Does he want us to turn away money and live in poverty?”
“That’s right. He is rich, so he can’t understand our pain.”
“Yes. Who gave him the right to stop us?”
The village chief had expected this. After all, Gong Tianhao was basically asking the villagers to turn away a windfall.
The village chief sighed in his heart.
Following that, the village chief put on a straight face and said loudly, “What are you people talking about? Do you think Young Master Gong is that kind of person?”
Someone immediately said, “Village chief, that’s the truth. He doesn’t want us to accept the compensation. He is clearly trying to keep us in poverty! What an awful man!”
“Honestly, if the price is high enough. I’m willing to surrender my land and house to them.”
But there were many opposing voices too. After all, even if they had the money, without the house and land, they would feel so unsettled. They would be like rootless duckweed, without any sense of security.
“If our house is demolished, where are we going to build a new house? They want not only our houses but also our lands. We’ve worked here our whole lives. We aren’t rich, but at least we wont starve to death.
“Without these lands, what do you expect us older generations to do? Therefore, no matter how high the compensation, I’m not giving up.”
“have the same thoughts as you. Without our house and land, we’ll eventually run out of compensation money!”
“That’s right!”
Finally, there were people who didn’t say anything. They studied the situation.
The village chief said earnestly, “Those of you who want to sell your land, have you thought of the consequences? You’re basically selling your land. Like what Ninth Uncle said, sooner or later, you’d run out of money.”
‘When the village chief said this, those who were tempted to get money silently lowered their heads.
The elders were right.
“Also, let me tell you something,” The village chief said, “Do you still remember the matter of Xiao Lingyu trying to contract the mountains? As long as the village remains ours, Lingyu will eventually contract the mountains.
“After that, everyone can earn tens of thousands a year even just from collecting rent. Plus, you’ll be getting the rent every year. Lingyu will pay every three years, and that’s tens of thousands every time. Do you think they will give you that much compensation for asking you to move? Do you think they will
give you compensation every year? Think carefully. Which one is better?
“Xiao Lingyu will contract the lands and mountains. Her family will need workers. They will hire the villagers. In a year, you can eam at least several thousand. That is a large amount.
‘One more thing. If the Little Cattle King is forcibly claimed by others, can you still go to pick up his manure?
“Previously, Xiao Lingyu has already promised to buy all your crops provided that you plant them according to her request. She takes risks for you for you to earn money. How much you can earn depends on your hard work.
“The mountain contracts, the future jobs, the vegetable income, how much you’ll earn in a year? Do the math. Which is more worth it?
“Most importantly, for one of them, welll still get to keep our lands and houses. As long as we continue to work hard, the value of the benefits will continue in an endless cycle..”
