Hearing Han Xueyao's words, Hu Xiaobei smiled and said softly, "Alright Aunt Han, let's sign the contract now!"
"Then let's do it!"
Xueyao understood Hu Xiaobei well, knowing he was incredibly stubborn and that his decisions were basically impossible to change!
And so, at this ti, Xueyao had no intention of further persuasion and simply handed the pen to Hu Xiaobei...
After taking the pen, Hu Xiaobei confidently signed his na on the subcontracting contract...
Once the signature was in place, Hu Xiaobei took a deep, sowhat excited breath!
He knew that from now on, those two barren hills were completely his; Hu Xiaobei was aware that it wouldn't be long before he would turn these wastelands into treasures, which would surely attract more tourists to Xiaohe Village!
Seeing Hu Xiaobei happily looking at the contract in his hands, Xueyao squinted her eyes!
To be honest, if it were anyone else who planned to contract those two barren hills behind the village,
she would've never agreed, because she knew that contracting them would be nothing but a waste of money!
But now it was Hu Xiaobei who planned to contract them, so she chose to agree!
Because she felt that Hu Xiaobei could still create miracles just like before!
Xueyao believes in Hu Xiaobei, but that doesn't an that everyone in the village shares her belief!
So when the news that Hu Xiaobei contracted the barren hills behind the village spread, many villagers of Xiaohe Village were stunned!
...
"What is Hu Xiaobei trying to do?"
"Yeah, nothing can grow on those barren hills!"
"Right, right!"
They all muttered to each other, all worried about Hu Xiaobei!
They all knew Hu Xiaobei was the village's benefactor and were truly grateful to him; that's why they really couldn't bear to see him suffer a loss!
That's right!
In their opinion, contracting those barren hills truly ant a loss...
...
While so worried for Hu Xiaobei, others rejoiced in mockery...
Those who were happily mocking Hu Xiaobei were the loafing ruffians who were very close to Wang Dagui!
Previously, Wang Dagui had no choice but to leave Xiaohe Village ignominiously...
But even after his departure, many thugs remained loyal to Wang Dagui, still considering themselves his followers!
Earlier, aside from idling their days away, they did nothing but curse Hu Xiaobei!
So now, knowing that Hu Xiaobei had contracted those two barren hills that were infertile, they were overjoyed!
...
"I used to think Hu Xiaobei was very clever, but now, he seems to be a complete idiot!"
"Yeah, he actually took on those barren hills! Before, Village Chief Wang Dagui had already tested, and nothing would grow on those wastelands!"
"Right, right, and under such circumstances, he still took them on, he's really asking for trouble!"
"Yes, yes!"
Before, because of their connection to Wang Dagui, they despised Hu Xiaobei!
In their view, it was pure fluke that Hu Xiaobei beca the idol of the whole village!
Now, Hu Xiaobei's luck had run out, and he was starting to act foolishly!
Otherwise, how could he possibly contract those barren hills that not even grass would grow on!
Thinking this, one of the thugs chuckled and said, "This ti, we don't need to do anything, just wait and watch the show!"
Others agreed upon hearing this!
"Yeah, as long as Hu Xiaobei loses face in front of everyone this ti, we'll just tease him endlessly!"
"Right, tease him to our heart's content! By then, everyone in the village will realize he's just a fool!"
"Exactly! By then, everyone will miss Village Chief Wang Dagui, they might even invite him back personally!"
"Right, right, right!"
While dreaming these sweet dreams, they all laughed wildly with excitent...
...
"Xiaobei, everyone in the village is saying that you've contracted those two barren hills behind the village. Is... is that true?"
Just after returning ho, Hu Xiaobei saw Guo iyu running over. Upon clearly hearing her question, Hu Xiaobei looked at the sowhat dazed Guo iyu and softly said, "Yes, sister-in-law! Just signed the contract!"
While speaking, Hu Xiaobei handed over the newly signed contract!
Guo iyu glanced at it, her delicate brows slightly furrowed. "Xiaobei, why did you really sign the contract? And it's permanent, too! Those two barren hills had their soil layer ruined by Wang Dagui; nothing will grow there. You should hurry and explain things properly to Xueyao, have her void the contract!"
Hearing Guo iyu's words, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "How could it be voided? I finally talked Aunt Han Xueyao into letting sign the contract!"
"Xiaobei, tell your sister-in-law, what were you really thinking!"
Watching Guo iyu's serious expression, Hu Xiaobei did not answer but instead asked solemnly, "Sister-in-law, do you believe in ?"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's question, Guo iyu nodded vigorously, "Of course I believe in you! When those bad people ca to my door to catch , I wasn't particularly scared because I knew you would definitely co save !"
Hearing such a serious explanation, Hu Xiaobei smiled and said, "Since you believe in , then I'll tell you, the fact that I've contracted them ans I have a use for them! As for what that use is, you'll know soon enough!"
"But..."
"Sister-in-law, you just said you believed in , why the change of heart now?"
"Alright! I believe in you! But if you ss this up, beware of your sister-in-law beating you!"
"Don't worry, it won't be ssed up! Oh, sister-in-law, you were wronged by what happened before. Do you need to make it up to you?"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei ntion compensation, Guo iyu's eyes narrowed slightly, "How do you want to make it up?"
"I'll take a loss and offer myself to you!"
"I knew you were a little rascal, the kind that can't spit anything good out!"
While saying this, she huffily glared at Hu Xiaobei...
Watching her sowhat annoyed look, Hu Xiaobei chuckled...
Hu Xiaobei knew that ever since he saved Guo iyu from the river, their relationship had beco much more nuanced, so now she wouldn't get angry even when he teased her...
...
"Dammit, finally there's no more sll!"
In the bathhouse, after using up three bottles of shower gel, Chu Nan looked at himself in the mirror and muttered to himself...
After returning from Xiaohe Village, he'd been frantically scrubbing in the shower!
Truth be told, he nearly scrubbed his skin off to get the stench to fade quite a bit...
Slowly walking out of the bathroom, he looked out the window with bitterness...
"Hu Xiaobei, everything now is thanks to you, and soon, I will completely destroy you!"
After spitefully saying this, he put on his suit and left!
Just after opening the door, Chu Nan hesitated, ca back inside, and sprayed himself with cologne once more...
Twenty minutes later, Chu Nan arrived at the entrance of Fang Xiong's canning factory...
After giving the three-story building a brief glance, he walked straight over...
The security guard responsible for guarding saw Chu Nan approaching and quickly walked over, asking with caution, "Who are you here to see?"
