"Do you think there really is rare tal in Phoenix Mountain?"
It’s been two days since those people ca looking for trouble, and as expected, they haven’t returned.
But Chi Youyou still hasn’t figured out the deal with this rare tal, and why soone would post sothing like that?
Aren’t those posts just causing chaos?
Song Shiyu put down the docunt in his hand, "Whether or not there’s any so-called rare tal, Phoenix Mountain is indeed a nourishing place, just difficult to access."
Chi Youyou was noncommittal about this.
"Even without this rare tal as bait, people will still covet it; rather than letting it be desired, why not let it flourish on its own?"
"What do you an?"
"I’ve organized this over the past two days, you can take a look."
Chi Youyou took the materials from him. He seed very busy these two days, always in etings, leaving the village affairs to Jiang An.
He left early and returned late every day, getting much darker.
But he seed happier than when working in the Imperial City.
"When did you prepare this!"
Chi Youyou skimd through it, "Could it be that you started planning the day after?"
She rembered that after the live stream ended that day, she didn’t see Song Shiyu; Jiang An said he had an ergency eting.
If that’s the case, she didn’t even know what to say.
This was a very detailed developnt plan, perfectly aligning with their new intelligent agriculture initiative to develop a whole new base, even including an on-site survey report!
"Pretty much."
Song Shiyu replied lightly, "Of course, I’m looking at this project from a businessman’s perspective, moreover, we still need the villagers’ consent."
"There shouldn’t be much of an issue, I’m going to find Grandpa Hai now!"
She said, and without waiting for Song Shiyu to speak, she ran out.
Song Shiyu shook his head helplessly, she’s so impulsive, but he stood up slowly and followed after her.
"Zaozao, what rare tal is Sister Youyou talking about!"
Gu Xintang and Chi Zaozao popped up from who-knows-where; he didn’t really like seeing this little girl.
He had so much to do!
If he weren’t worried that she was too dumb and got lost in the mountains, causing Chi Youyou to send him to find her, it’d be troubleso.
To prevent more trouble, he stayed with her.
"It should be so kind of rare tal."
He wasn’t an encyclopedia; how was he supposed to know!
Gu Xintang seed to understand and nodded, "They seem really busy!"
"I think you’re busier!"
Chi Zaozao glared at her. She was holding a bunny, earlier she was holding a little lamb!
"If you don’t put it back soon, the whole rabbit colony will co over!"
Gu Xintang rubbed the bunny’s head, "Then wouldn’t I have a whole bunch of rabbits!"
Chi Zaozao: ...
No issue there, but the little girl’s logic is a bit scary!
A whole bunch of rabbits!
Just thinking about it gave him a headache!
"Ah! Zongzong! Wait for , I’ll help you feed the fish!"
Before Chi Zaozao could snap out of the rabbit colony, he saw her put down the bunny and dash toward Zongzong with her little legs.
Chi Zaozao: ...
I told you, you’re the busiest!
Chi Youyou, holding a file bag, briskly walked to the village entrance, seeing a man in a floral shirt shouting there.
"You say this is your land? It’s clearly mine!"
"You took my land, won’t apologize, and even beat people! Is there no justice?"
...
"What’s happening, Aunt Niu?"
Chi Youyou waded through the crowd and saw Aunt Niu on the outer edge, "Isn’t that Grandpa Li? Who’s that?"
"Gou Dan! You can’t even recognize him?"
Gou Dan?
That nuisance?
Chi Youyou looked at the man in the floral shirt, all dressed up in the center of the crowd, and then at the honest and speechless old man beside him.
"What’s going on?"
"Recently everyone’s been busy with the autumn harvest, and Gou Dan suddenly returned, claiming the plot of land behind his house is his, but the Li Family has been using it. Everyone knows he sold it to the Li Family after his parents passed, right?"
She knew about it. When Gou Dan’s parents passed, she was already nine and rembered everything that happened in the village.
Apparently, his parents were angered to death by him.
Because he had no money, he made them sell the land.
His dad was against it, saying the land was his life and couldn’t be sold.
They had a huge fight; old people can’t handle excitent. A stroke left him paralyzed, and his mom, not in good health, wore herself out taking care of him, passing away soon after one another.
The land was sold to Gou Dan.
He was never liked in the village. After that incident, it got worse.
Old Li bought the land out of kindness because Gou Dan said he had no money for his parents’ funeral. Who else in the village would dare buy it otherwise?
The village is small, every household knows each other’s business, and news spreads like wildfire the next day.
To have driven his parents to death for land, it seed cursed to them.
"You took advantage of my parents’ death and slyly took my land!"
"Shaless! Bullying an unard young man because you’re old!"
...
Chi Youyou finally pieced together the story. This guy was just a rogue!
And there he was, turning the tables!
"You sold this land to yourself back then; how could it be that I took it!"
Old Li was an honest man, unable to argue, just repeating those words.
"When did I sell it to you! What evidence do you have? I just let you use it out of pity for an old man’s hard life. I didn’t expect you to claim it’s yours!"
Evidence?
There was evidence. Originally, he didn’t think much of it, but a neighbor ntioned not to forget the land contract, so he insisted on getting it before paying.
But sohow, the land contract he had hidden under the bed disappeared!
"I’ll look again at ho. You did give the land contract; I must have it at ho..."
"What nonsense are you spouting! I gave you the land contract? I didn’t sell the land to you, why would I give it to you!"
Gou Dan yelled, "Everyone, judge for , the land contract is in my hand. Look at it; this old man is so dishonest! I kindly lent him the land, and he wants to take over my family’s land!"
"How... how did this land contract get to you?"
Old Li was shocked seeing the land contract, what was going on?
"Impossible, you gave it to at that ti; how could it be with you... you stole the land contract!"
Alright, even as honest as Old Li was, he realized he had been tricked by this rogue!
No wonder he couldn’t find the land contract!
