Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei and Han Xueyao’s concerned voices, she gently waved her hand, "It’s nothing. The old lady is fine. I’m just too happy, really too happy. I’ve lived most of my life and this is the first time I’ve gotten so much money. Thank you, I really mean it!"
Hearing her explanation, Hu Xiaobei and Han Xueyao breathed a sigh of relief. After letting Han Xueyao sit down, Hu Xiaobei smiled and said, "Old lady, this is just the beginning. There are even better days ahead."
"Yes, yes, yes. The better days are yet to come."
After nodding vigorously, she once again clenched the crisp new bills in her hand and walked away.
After she left, everyone’s gaze was fixed unwaveringly on Hu Xiaobei.
A bird in hand is worth two in the bush. Before, Hu Xiaobei’s flamboyant promises hadn’t really excited them, but now that they saw the money, they were truly thrilled.
Because they knew that Hu Xiaobei wasn’t just drawing pies in the sky before; he’d actually brought them tangible benefits.
Seeing everyone looking at him with excitement, Hu Xiaobei knew he had stirred their emotions.
With a light smile, Hu Xiaobei spoke softly, "Next, please!"
Right after Hu Xiaobei spoke, the villager at the very front carefully placed the vegetables he was holding onto the scale...
Hu Xiaobei smiled and began to weigh them; soon enough, he too received a thick stack!
Seeing this, everyone in Zhang Family Village felt completely reassured...
The village chief standing at the back also breathed a complete sigh of relief...
...
In a corner, Zhang Qiang, covered in dust, watched as all the villagers received their money, his face growing increasingly ugly.
It was as if he was constipated...
Knowing that staying there meant nothing, he gave Hu Xiaobei a cold glance and hoarsely said, "Let’s go! It’s pointless for us to stay here any longer!"
After speaking, Zhang Qiang turned swiftly, ready to leave this utterly embarrassing place. But as soon as he turned, Zhang Qiang’s face became extremely unsightly because he realized that the thugs who were usually on good terms with him had no intention of leaving. Instead, they were looking at him coldly.
"What...what does this mean?"
After squinting his eyes, Zhang Qiang quickly asked.
"What does it mean?"
With such sarcasm, they didn’t bother to explain and instead coldly surrounded Zhang Qiang.
Surrounded by everyone, Zhang Qiang panicked and glared fiercely at them. Zhang Qiang growled, "What? You want to oppose me?"
"You’re not dumb after all, idiot. We do want to go against you, you stupid fuck!"
After saying this coldly, they glared at Zhang Qiang with resentment and screamed, "Before, you said that Master Xiaobei was just a shitty peasant, and following him would only bring bad luck. We believed you! And now, look who’s out of luck!"
"Yeah! You dumbass, aren’t you going to properly explain to us?"
"Exactly!"
They were truly furious because they knew if they hadn’t listened to Zhang Qiang, they could be receiving stacks of cash from Hu Xiaobei just like everyone else by now.
As Zhang Qiang was questioned by them, he sneered, "Explain my ass. Being fat doesn’t happen in a day. Hu Xiaobei may seem strong now, but that’s only because ’Yongqiang Brand,’ which dominates the province, is not taking him seriously yet. Once they do, this Hu Xiaobei won’t stand a chance!"
"Really?"
Hearing Zhang Qiang’s assertive explanation, they all wore cold sneers. They no longer believed Zhang Qiang.
Challenged by their questioning, Zhang Qiang hurriedly said, "Yes! Trust me! This Hu Xiaobei is like a grasshopper after autumn. He won’t be able to hop around much longer."
"Trust you my ass. We’re not going to trust you anymore. Now go and properly apologize to Master Xiaobei and seek his forgiveness."
Hearing them mention an apology, Zhang Qiang questioned hysterically, "Me? Apologize? To that shitty peasant?"
"What else then? You want Master Xiaobei to apologize to you?"
"I... I can’t do it, I absolutely can’t!"
"Well, if that’s what you say, then don’t blame us for not considering our relationships anymore!"
As they spoke in such a somber tone, they coldly took a step forward, and in that instant, they surrounded Zhang Qiang even more tightly.
"You..."
