Chapter 923 Exposed
Then everyone looked embarrassed and started whispering to each other.
Village Chief Jia didn't care, "You all know what I do, now I want you to ask yourself, when have I ever let you suffer a loss?"
Everyone quieted down after hearing this.
"Since I have never let you suffer any loss before, I will certainly not let you suffer any loss now," said Village Chief Jia calmly. "Don't look at the pain you have to pay a little money, but I can tell you clearly that this money will be returned soon, and it will be more than doubled!"
This made everyone excited.
"Village Chief, we believe you."
"You can never go wrong if you follow me."
"We listen to everything you say!"
"Village chief, tell us how you make money!"
Everyone quieted down and looked at Village Chief Jia with expectant eyes.
Village Chief Jia glared and said, "Why are you so anxious? Are you going to tear the tiles off the roof? If you are impatient, you will lose everything."
Seeing that the person who was speaking had an embarrassed expression and didn't dare to say anything more, Village Chief Jia softened his voice and said, "Don't ask if you shouldn't know. Isn't it enough that you will get some benefits when the time comes?"
He is well aware of the principle of giving a date in return for a slap in the face.
He has used both soft and hard tactics very skillfully over the years.
When everyone heard what Village Chief Jia said, they immediately stood up for him and scolded the person who had just spoken, "Er Gouzi, why are you so anxious? Our village chief always keeps his word and has never lied to us. What are you asking?"
"That's right, you probably don't trust the village chief!"
"The village chief has his reasons for not saying it. Be careful that you won't make any money if you tell him, or you may lose a lot of money!"
"Isn't it enough to just listen to the village chief? Why do you have to ask so many questions?"
The villagers, who had just wanted to know where the money came from, now all pointed their guns at Ergouzi.
Er Gouzi was so angry that his face turned red, but he didn't dare to get angry at the fake village chief. He could only use other villagers as a shield, "I've already told you not to call me Er Gouzi. If you call me that again, I will go to your doorstep tonight and curse you! You won't even be able to eat in peace."
Everyone was unhappy, "Aren't names given for the purpose of calling people? Why can't we call you that?"
"If you think the name is not nice, go find your father and ask him why he gave you such a name!"
Seeing that a dispute was about to arise, Village Chief Jia was very troubled, as he still had things to explain!
He pinched his brows and said, "Are you guys bored? How dare you cause trouble in the brigade? Huh?"
The rising tone of voice made everyone suddenly realize that something was wrong, and they quickly apologized to Village Chief Jia.
Er Gouzi was unwilling to accept the result, "Village Chief, they were the first to..."
"Alright, alright," Village Chief Jia waved his hand impatiently, "I've been calling you by your name for so many years, I'm not used to asking you to change your name all of a sudden. Give me some time."
Then he urged everyone to leave, "Hurry back and do your own things. I have something else to do."
Then he said to Shanzi and the other two, "Shanzi, you three stay here. I have something to tell you!"
Shanzi and the other two stopped walking out and waited until everyone had left. "Uncle, what do you want to tell us?"
The word "tell" made Village Chief Jia laugh, "Shanzi, you are smart, you know I want to tell you something."
"Uncle, whatever it is, just tell me. The three of us will definitely satisfy you." Shanzi knew that what he had just said made Jiacunzhen very satisfied, so he continued to express his determination to him.
"You are going there on the surface to find your sponsors and ask them to continue to support your schooling," Village Chief Jia patted Shanzi on the shoulder after hearing this, "but in reality you have a difficult task."
After hearing this, Shanzi and the other two looked at each other, then looked at Village Chief Jia, waiting for him to continue.
"You should have noticed that the peanuts in our village grow differently from those in other villages," Village Chief Jia observed the three of them and saw them nod. "When they are ripe, those people from Beijing will probably not buy our peanuts in comparison."
"Uncle, what should we do?" Zhuzi was anxious. He was still waiting to sell the peanuts and ask his father for some money to go to the county town!
"Yes, we spent a lot of money growing peanuts," Zhuanzi thought, if he didn't buy their peanuts, "it wouldn't be a waste!"
Shanzi looked directly at Village Chief Jia and said, "We can't let them not buy our peanuts. Since everyone has planted them, we have to buy them all."
Village Chief Jia nodded.
He said that this kid is smart!
It’s no wonder that he has been observing for so long, and he was not disappointed!
"Shanzi is right!" Village Chief Jia patted Shanzi on the shoulder again, "So you have to make sure this matter is done this time."
"Uncle, what do you say we should do?" Shanzi knew that he was young and had little experience, especially when faced with such a big event. "As long as you say it, we promise to complete it without compromise."
Hearing this, Village Chief Jia looked at the pillars and piles, "Where are you two?"
"We will definitely do the same as Shanzi and do our uncle's instructions perfectly." Zhuzi and Zhuangzi looked at each other, then immediately looked at Village Chief Jia and expressed their determination to him.
"Okay, if you have this intention, I believe you can get it done," Village Chief Jia nodded, "I have confidence in you."
"Thank you, uncle!" Shanzi and the other two said in unison.
"Don't thank me yet," Village Chief Jia took out a piece of paper from the desk drawer, "This is how to get the other party to buy peanuts. Take it back and copy it according to the content above. When you get to the capital, post it in a conspicuous place with a lot of people."
Shanzi took the paper without even looking at it, and remembered what the older generation had said, "Posting a big-character poster?"
"Yes," Village Chief Jia nodded, "We rural people have no other options. This is the only way to accomplish great things with little money, so we can only rely on this."
"Okay!" Shanzi carefully folded the paper and put it in his pocket. "We'll copy it when we get back. We'll copy as much as we can before we leave."
"You three should come together," Village Chief Jia arranged, "and give them to Shanzi for safekeeping after you finish copying them."
The pillars and piles nodded, "Okay."
"Remember, don't let anyone else know about this, and don't let the news leak out," Village Chief Jia said seriously. "If someone finds out, it might get to the ears of the sponsor, and then we'll be in trouble."
Shanzi and the other two nodded quickly, "Uncle, don't worry, we will definitely pay attention and make sure that this matter will not be known to the fifth person."
"Also, when you get to the capital and post those big-character posters, you must act as pitiful as possible and do your best to gain other people's sympathy." Village Chief Jia thought for a moment and gave another instruction.
"Uncle, why? Wouldn't this expose us?"
