"60 million yuan? Do you think I’m a fool? Your village is so poor, you can’t even cough up 60,000 yuan!"
The man with a mouthful of gold teeth sneered...
Having known Lin Dahai for a long time, he was aware that Lin Dahai was from Xiaohe Village.
He also knew that Xiaohe Village was indeed one of the poorest villages, so, let alone 60 million yuan, even 60,000 yuan was out of the question!
Exposed so bluntly, Lin Dahai felt somewhat embarrassed, "This... Brother, you really know our village well! Indeed! We can’t afford it, but this time the authorities are helping to fix the roads! They’ve allocated 60 million yuan directly!"
"Really? What’s going on?"
Hearing his eager inquiry, Lin Dahai quickly said, "Brother, it’s just luck! Our village is so poor, it’s embarrassing for the city government, so they decided to pitch in some money to fix the roads properly!"
Lin Dahai didn’t tell the whole truth!
Because he knew if he mentioned it was because Mayor Shen had specially approved the road work, he definitely wouldn’t dare to get involved!
Hearing Lin Dahai’s explanation, he spoke slowly, "Is that so? Your village is really lucky then!"
"Yes, Brother, think about it, the road repairs don’t really need 60 million yuan! There’s a lot of room for profit here, don’t you think?"
"Yes, indeed! Is someone already contracted to do the work?"
"Not yet! As you know, I have some authority in the village, no one dares to take the contract without my say-so!"
Hearing Lin Dahai say this, he touched his large gold tooth and said, "Then I’ll take it! You’ve handled this well, I won’t forget your share when it’s done!"
"Then I thank you, Brother!"
"No need to be formal with me!"
With that, he let out a thrilled laugh and took a satisfying drag of his cigarette!
He had previously visited Xiaohe Village and knew that getting to the town from there wasn’t very far, so if they just built a basic cement road, it would only cost a few hundred thousand yuan. Taking on this contract, the profit margin was huge!
...
"Hu Xiaobei, this time, let’s see how you die!"
After he agreed, Lin Dahai sneered fervently!
Lin Dahai had previously heard from others how much Mayor Shen valued Hu Xiaobei!
He didn’t believe it at all!
As he saw it, it was all nonsense!
After all, one was a high and mighty mayor, while the other was a farmer scrabbling in the soil...
In his view, Mayor Shen’s previously shown appreciation was just for show.
Now, Mayor Shen had long forgotten about Hu Xiaobei, so no matter how he dealt with Hu Xiaobei from his side, Mayor Shen wouldn’t interfere...
...
"Luckily I had Murong Qingqing help out earlier, or else these numbers would really give me a headache!"
In Xiaohe Village, standing next to Murong Qingqing, Hu Xiaobei watched as Murong Qingqing calculated various figures over and over again, feeling quite a headache himself.
"I can’t stand this any longer, I’m going mad!"
Thinking so, Hu Xiaobei found an excuse to leave the place...
"Just as I thought, that little bastard only knows how to be an armchair general!"
Seeing Hu Xiaobei sneak away, Murong Qingqing pursed her lips!
She quickly returned to seriously calculating the various costs...
Just then, she heard someone speak softly, "Qingqing, there’s no need to rush. Have some water..."
"Thank you, Sister!"
As she spoke, Murong Qingqing looked up to see the graceful Han Xueyao holding a water glass beside her!
Hearing her thanks, Han Xueyao waived a hand, "Qingqing, no need to be formal with me!"
"Okay!"
Smiling sweetly, Murong Qingqing took a sip of water...
Han Xueyao watched her bosom quiver as she tilted her head back to drink, softly expressing some envy, "Qingqing, your figure is really too good!"
"Not at all, I’m nowhere as good as you, sister!"
Blushing, Murong Qingqing glanced at Han Xueyao and spoke earnestly!
"Not at all, my figure has gotten out of shape already!"
