Stunning Dragon Wife-Chapter 781 - 780: Xu Jing Comes Searching

It was precisely the stubborn faction in the village that had bought women but refused to release them according to Zhang Xiaoshan’s wishes.

"Village Chief, heh, you’re enjoying the view here?"

"Oh."

Zhang Xiaoshan responded indifferently.

He already knew their intentions, which were obviously because they saw the other villagers rent their land to him, making a lot of money, and could even work for him every day to earn wages, which made them jealous and tempted.

But Zhang Xiaoshan just wouldn’t initiate the conversation.

He knew his fellow villagers all too well.

They had deeply ingrained bad habits, and if he didn’t show them some colors, they wouldn’t know what to believe in.

He had to take this opportunity to make them submissive.

A group of people looked at each other, one after another, none willing to speak first.

"I’ve got other things to do, I’ll be leaving first."

Zhang Xiaoshan stood up from the ground, patted his buttocks, and was about to leave

"Hey, Village Chief, you, wait a minute."

Finally, someone couldn’t hold back any longer and stopped Zhang Xiaoshan, speaking with a smile.

"Village Chief, look, we’ve got nothing to do now, and your vegetable base is so busy. Why not let us work for you, earn some money for the children’s tuition fees?"

"And our lands are lying idle, why not just rent them to you?"

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled smugly at the corners of his mouth but said coldly on his face,

"I asked you to rent them to me before, but you didn’t want to. Now I don’t have the money, I can’t rent, sorry."

"Ah, don’t be like that."

"Little Shan."

An older woman stepped forward and earnestly spoke to Zhang Xiaoshan

"I know you’re mad at us. Your business is so good, just that farmhouse alone earns tens of thousands every day. You can’t possibly be short of money. Me, you, you remember, when you were in college, Granny Huang even gave you a basket of eggs. You can’t forget Granny’s kindness."

"Yes, Little Shan, we are all hometown folks. You, you can’t ignore us."

The crowd looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with hopeful eyes.

Zhang Xiaoshan softened.

Indeed, these people, more or less, had some issues, but their nature was still good. Originally, buying wives was an act of helplessness. Now, it wasn’t easy for their mindset to change instantly. Like Granny Huang, she had given him some small favors in the past.

"All right."

Finally, he relented.

"I can rent your lands, also at ten thousand per mu. But I still say, release the women. I’m not forcing you to send them away, just let them choose for themselves. Those who want to stay can stay, work on the fields with you or go to my stores in the city, and I’ll arrange jobs for them. For those who want to leave, I’ll give them a severance fee of one hundred thousand each, and I’ll pay for it."

"Just remember, no more forcing them against their will. If you can do this, I’ll rent the land. If you can’t, please go back."

"Little Shan, you know, Brother Huang’s son from Granny Huang’s household is a bit disabled, and, and it’s not easy to find a wife. Could you not make an exception?"

"Granny Huang, if I rent your land, you’ll have money. Are you still worried about not finding a wife? I know Brother Huang has trouble with his legs, so how about this: I’ll arrange for him to manage a warehouse for me in Wanshan County, okay?"

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, Granny Huang burst into tears of joy and gratefully said,

"I always knew you were a good kid, Granny thanks you. Whatever, I, I agree. I’ll go home right now and send the girl away."

"I, I’m willing too."

"Little Shan, I promise, I’ll listen to you."

"Right, Li Erniu, that guy, he rented out fifteen mu of land and made a bundle. Now he earns five hundred a day in wages. I heard he’s already got a new girlfriend. With money, aren’t there plenty of women? I, I’m willing too."

"Good, now that everyone is willing, go home and deal with it."

"Once everything is settled, go see Accountant Ge. The contracts are in the village hall. Sign them, and the money will be transferred to you the next day, and you’ll be able to start working. The wages are three hundred a day."

"Great!"

The crowd left in high spirits.

Zhang Xiaoshan also showed a smile at this moment.

The bad custom of buying wives in White Dragon Village had finally been improved by him.

Everything was moving in a positive direction.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan’s gaze swept across, and with his keen eyesight, he could see a Mercedes-Benz SUV parked across the river, a greasy old man stepping out of the car and walking towards the village.

"Gong Yuhua, that old boy has really come."

Zhang Xiaoshan smiled smugly and slid down the slope, planning to meet the other party.

"Zhang Xiaoshan."

Just as he came down the hill, a clear, oriole-like voice came.

Zhang Xiaoshan turned his head to look.

He saw a girl wearing a white sweater, dark blue skinny jeans, and white sneakers walking towards him.

Seeing Xu Jing, Zhang Xiaoshan’s heart fluttered.

Ever since that time he had helped her attend the class reunion, where some ambiguous friction occurred at night, Xu Jing had taken a liking to him, frequently messaging him. Luckily, he had been very busy with the construction of the village primary school lately, and Xu Jing, on one hand, had to work with the higher-ups to finalize plans, and on the other hand, had to teach classes, so she had no time to come find him.

He wanted to pretend he hadn’t heard and slip away.

"Zhang Xiaoshan, don’t you run away."

Seeing Zhang Xiaoshan trying to leave, Xu Jing hurriedly ran over and caught hold of Zhang Xiaoshan’s arm.
