Chapter 715: Chapter 715 Let’s Go Together

Aunt Liu was left stunned by her nephew’s words. How, with just a few words from her nephew, did this project seem like a massive fortune?

Originally, she didn’t have high expectations for this venture. She only invested fifty yuan. But now, after hearing what her nephew said, she was tempted, thinking she should talk it over with her husband and invest a bit more money.

However, her nephew’s situation complicated things, "But what if the village chief refuses to let you invest? Even if it’s profitable, if they won’t give you an opportunity, there’s nothing you can do."

Aunt Liu’s nephew paused to think, then said, "Auntie, I do have a solution, but we will need to find so interdiaries to testify. Even though we are relatives, so things need to be made clear to avoid disputes in the future."

"What do you an? We need interdiaries?" Aunt Liu was confused, unsure of what sche her nephew had co up with now.

"I’ll provide the money, but we’ll invest under your na so the village chief will have no reason to refuse. Actually, I thought of this before but didn’t want to use it. After all, if we really do beco rich, I’m not sure you’d be willing to share the money." He was concerned that when it ca to money, his aunt might not be as generous. Therefore interdiaries would be needed to testify the agreent.

Aunt Liu agreed with his plan. It didn’t harm them, and it could even help her nephew.

She agreed without thinking it through, "Alright. You decide who to bring as witnesses, and we’ll go see the village chief together tomorrow. It’s late now. You should go ho."

Just then, soone approached. Aunt Liu’s nephew nodded and left straightaway. As Aunt Liu recognized who the visitor was, the neighbor and her elder brother from her maternal ho, she greeted them with a smile.

"What brings you out so late?" she asked.

The neighbour replied, "We need to speak with Si Chen and Hongwei."

Aunt Liu guessed why the neighbor had co over and replied with a mysterious smile, "Alright then, you should go ahead. I shall be leaving, too."

Si Chen and Gu Hongwei already made it clear. Even if others go to negotiate, the result will be the sa. If they want to invest, they can only use the nas of the village mbers. However, they would have to be clever enough to think of that.

Si Chen had just closed the front door and hadn’t reached the hall when there was another knock. Everyone knew it was another visitor wanting to invest under a family mber’s na. Involuntarily, they opened the door and let them in, only to be faced with another request about family mbers wanting to invest.

Eventually, both Si Chen and Gu Hongwei turned them all down.

After sending them off, Si Chen wanted to close the door again, but Tong Yao chuckled, "Forget it. Don’t bother closing it. I suspect more visitors will co over soon. It’ll be pointless to close it."

Sure enough, not long after her words fell, more people arrived. As expected, their purpose was to discuss their relatives investing in the project.

After being refused, their faces all soured. Tong Yao gave a bitter smile, "I never expected that my intention to do so good for the village would end up offending so many people. What a paradox."

Si Chen spoke in a composed voice, "Let them think what they want. As long as our conscience are clear, it’s fine."

There is a saying, "Without rules, nothing can be done." The size of the two hills in the village is fixed, and as they belong to this village, introducing shareholders from other villages would eventually result in many problems. The villagers of this village could comply with the village chief’s arrangents, but the outsiders might not.

This would definitely cause managent problems for the village chief.

Guo Jinnian said, "I think these people have no conscience and are greedy. Otherwise, they won’t suggest that you distribute money to every household. Why should you share the money with them? If they want money, they should go earn their own. They dream of pie falling from the sky, but if you owed money, would they give you any money from their own pockets to aid you?"

So villagers are like ingrates. She felt pity for Gu Hongwei and Si Chen.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Hongwei said, "They might think they have done

favors in the past by helping

with my education. Now that I have a better life, I should repay them."

"You’ve repaid them more than enough, but they’re not satisfied," Tong Yao added.

Guo Jinnian nodded. "Exactly, they’re simply too greedy. After helping them this ti, don’t bother with them anymore. It’s useless. They don’t rember your good deeds."

Both Si Chen and Gu Hongwei fell silent, but another thought occurred to Tong Yao.

She considered aloud, "What if they invest in the na of the villagers here?"

Hearing this, Gu Hongwei and Si Chen frowned. Si Chen said, "I’ll talk to the village chief about this. For the families that want their relatives to invest, whatever amount they declare the first ti will be final."

aning, if Aunt Liu said she wanted to invest fifty yuan before, she could not increase the amount now.

Gu Hongwei felt this matter needed to be explicitly discussed with the village chief. "I’ll co with you," he decided.

Si Chen nodded, and they went to speak with the village chief together.

After they had left, Guo Jinnian sat in the living room, lanting about the two of them, "Gosh, they are too upright. Honestly, if I were in their shoes, I would have driven those people away just now. What awful people, each more crafty than the last."

Tong Yao chuckled, "You should learn from them. They are exemplary figures who need to maintain a good public image. Maybe it would feel good to drive those people away now, but it might bring negative consequences later. Be patient. Anyway, we won’t be staying here much longer."

Guo Jinnian wasn’t genuinely upset, just a bit bothered. She was about to reply when two won entered through the door. She rolled her eyes, "Great, more visitors."

Tong Yao looked at the newcors. It was her neighbour, Aunt Zhou, who lived behind her house, and her daughter-in-law. She was puzzled about their sudden visit.

"Yoo-hoo, Yaoyao, is it just you two ho? Where are Si Chen and Hongwei?" Before Tong Yao could answer, Aunt Zhou turned to Guo Jinnian and praised her, "Oh my, aren’t you Hongwei’s wife? You are so beautiful. And so tall. Just standing there makes others fall for you. Your children will surely take after you. It would be great if you have twins like you."

Guo Jinnian made no reply to her flattery. She was in no mood to be friendly to these people anymore. She wasn’t married to Gu Hongwei, yet they were talking about having children. It was really rude.

Tong Yao too didn’t appreciate Aunt Zhou’s words very much. "Aunt Zhou, you ca here this late at night. Is there sothing you need?"

Aunt Zhou replied with a flattering smile, "Well, Yaoyao, here’s the thing. You know about the village chief’s plan to plant fruit trees on the hills, right? That’s why I’m here."
