373 An Invisible Source of Disaster
“Alright, father. I’ll settle my own matters. I won’t trouble you. However, don’t interfere in my business. I promise I won’t have any conflicts with Xu Xi, but I can’t tolerate Chu Ning. So what if she has the mayor’s support? I don’t believe that the mayor will personally deal with a student like me for Chu Ning! I’d like to see what kind of tricks this Chu Ning has!” Yu Yan looked at Yu Yang and said softly.
In the evening, in a house in Qinghe Village, a couple was standing in front of their shed, counting the number of sheep in the pen with a puzzled look on their faces.
“Chang Lei, I seem to remember that the number of sheep we have is forty-one, right?” The woman counted the sheep in the pen and looked at her husband in bewilderment.
“That’s right. We count them all the time; how can there be a mistake?” the husband replied matter-of-factly.
“Now it’s forty-five; four more all of a sudden.” The woman counted again before she was convinced of this fact.
“How could this be? There are only a few families in our village that rear sheep, and the grazing location is different each time. There shouldn’t be a mistake, right?” The husband scratched his head in confusion.
“Sigh, let’s not care about that. You should call the sheep-rearing families in our village and ask them one by one. If it’s not theirs, it’s very likely that the sheep came from other villages. After this year, we won’t have to rear sheep anymore. We’ll work for President Chu and earn more. The two of us can get a salary of more than 90,000 yuan a year. After rearing these filthy and smelly things, we can only sell them and make 50,000 yuan a year, and there’s huge costs involved,” the woman said casually.
“Alright,” he said. After the husband heard his wife’s words, he immediately took out his phone and made a call.
A moment later.
“How is it? Did you get any results?” the woman asked with a frown.
“None of them. These four extra sheep seemed to have appeared out of thin air.” The husband shook his head.
“Could it be from the neighboring Houtu Village?” the woman asked, baffled.
“It can’t be. Houtu Village is quite far from here. It shouldn’t be.” The husband felt that no one would deliberately drive four sheep into his flock.
“So you conjured up these four sheep?” the woman asked with a smile.
“No, I think we should call the police. Otherwise, the people who lost the sheep will be worried. These four sheep are worth thousands of yuan. It’s not a small number,” the husband shook his head and continued.
“Don’t worry. We’ll talk about it after today. Maybe they’ll come knocking tomorrow.” The woman seemed to think that calling the police would be too troublesome, so she did not choose to do so.
“I’m telling you, don’t be greedy. We already have a stable job and income now, so we must not be affected by this matter.” The husband’s face was a little solemn. After living together for so many years, he could see through his wife’s innermost thoughts.
“What are you thinking about?” The woman was a little upset and walked into the house.
“Don’t you know what I’m thinking?” the husband mumbled to himself as he also walked into the house.
The sky turned dark.
The next day, Yu Yan seemed to be a different person compared to the day before. She was much warmer that day and was friendly to everyone except Chu Ning.
Of course, Chu Ning hoped that Yu Yan wouldn’t cause trouble. After all, she was very busy and didn’t have time to fight with her all day.
Time was money. Chu Ning’s mind was filled with thoughts on how to start making a profit, but she couldn’t rush this kind of thing.
She had to wait for Lu Chao to give a definite answer.
At the same time, in the Qinghe village council, Wen An was eating a bun while reading a document in his hand.
However, there was the sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor.
“Huh?” Wen An was a little surprised.
Usually, the residents of Qinghe village would only look for him at noon or in the afternoon if they had something to deal with. The busiest time was in the morning.
“Chief, something bad has happened. Our villagers and those from Houtu Village are quarreling on the riverbank. More and more people are gathering to watch. The situation is getting out of control!” the Qinghe villager who came to find Wen An said anxiously.
“Bring me there quickly.” Wen An put down the bun and documents in his hands and hurriedly walked out.
A few minutes later.
Wen An had already roughly understood what had happened on the way there.
In Sanhua Town, there was a river that connected all the villages. The irrigation and daily water use of the nearby villages depended on this river.
Houtu Village was located upstream of Qinghe Village.
