“Boss Ye is really a good person. A good person like you will be rewarded!”

Old Master Zheng, who was still queuing, sighed when he saw this scene. He said earnestly to his grandson, Zheng Jianghao, “Ye Xuan is a good person. You have to protect him well.”

Zheng Jianghao nodded vigorously. “Grandpa, don’t worry. I know that the Young Master is a good person. I will do my best to protect him.”

On the other side, those families had also come to the village entrance to watch the commotion.

Looking at the villagers cheering after receiving the money and the heavy money in their hands, their eyes turned red.

They were really envious!

If they had signed the agreement obediently before, they would have received the red banknotes now.

After their eyes burned, they felt waves of panic in their hearts.

“Are they serious? If we really can’t get the money, it will be a huge loss!”

“That’s right! If we can’t get the money by then, we won’t have any good houses in the city!”

“Looking at the money in their hands, I want it too! Don’t tell me they’ve forgotten about us?”

Seeing that everyone was already starting to be afraid, the middle-aged man seemed as if he expected better from them and said hatefully, “Can you guys be more promising? Do you think this little trick can scare you? Let me tell you, they won’t give up at this time. They won’t dare! We just have to persevere. We will definitely win!”

Although the middle-aged man spoke confidently, with the stimulation of the red banknotes, some people were already unwilling to listen to him.

A few people who wanted to retreat gathered together and found the person-in-charge of the demolition. They said arrogantly, “You guys look quite pitiful. You have to be exposed to the wind and sun every day. How about this? We’ll allow you to demolish our houses. The price will be the same as before. However, we also have a request. You have to give us the cash today. Otherwise, we won’t agree!”

The person-in-charge smiled and asked, “What money?”

The person-in-charge looked at the few people in front of him mockingly. How could he not understand what they meant?

Were they jealous when they saw that everyone had received their money?

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

The people looked at one another and said naturally, “Of course it’s the compensation for the demolition!”

Otherwise, what kind of money could it be?

The person-in-charge chuckled and looked at them. “You’re not demolishing your houses, so how can you have any money? Chairman Ye has already said that he won’t help you with the demolition. You can forget about getting a single cent. Great, now you can keep your mud houses and carry on the family line.”

They were stunned on the spot, and their hearts turned cold.

Were they really not going to help them with the demolition?

Didn’t that mean that they wouldn’t get a share of the compensation and the houses in the city?

If they had known that this was the case, why would they follow the middle-aged man to cause trouble?!

They had said from the start that it was good to sign the contract. In any case, it was like a huge pie that had fallen from the sky.

If there was anyone to blame, it was that middle-aged man. It was all because of him!

Since such a huge pie had fallen, why don’t they make a big profit out of it?

What happened in the end?

What did they get in exchange?

They had offended the village chief and the mayor, but in the end, it was all for nothing!

They were filled with regret!

The more they thought about it, the angrier they became. They went straight to the middle-aged man and asked him to compensate them. “You bastard, if it weren’t for your lousy idea, how could we not have gotten anything! It’s all because of you!”

The middle-aged man was naturally unconvinced. “What do you mean by saying that I instigated it? If you weren’t greedy, would you believe what I said? Besides, that person-in-charge might be scaring you. Will he cancel the demolition just because he said so? I don’t believe it!”

How could the rest of them continue listening? As they pushed one another, their anger grew, and they started fighting.

The villagers who had received their money stood at the side and watched the commotion as they discussed the matter loudly.

“There’s internal strife just like that? Weren’t they quite united previously?”

“Were they united? That’s because of their family unity! Now that the money is gone, can they still coexist peacefully?”

“Hmph, they’re indeed birds of a feather! Now that they can’t get anything, they’re starting to push the blame on each other. Why don’t they talk about their greed?”

“It’s quite good! You get the money over there and watch the fighting scenes over here. Life is endlessly happy!”

With the villagers’ cooperation, the compensation was quickly distributed.

Looking at the many staff members who had worked hard all day, Ye Xuan waved his hand and announced, “Everyone has worked hard today. In order to express my sincerity, I’ll treat everyone to a good meal!”

Everyone immediately cheered.

“Thank you, Chairman Ye. Long live Chairman Ye!”

“Aiya, how embarrassing! Chairman Ye is too polite!”

“From this trip, we obtained a bonus, received some money, and are going to be treated to a meal. Isn’t this too good?”

Ye Xuan got everyone into the car and then brought everyone to the Jinling International Hotel for dinner.

Liu Yanran called the Jinling International Hotel in advance. The manager immediately said that he would reserve the largest banquet hall for them.

When everyone entered the banquet hall and stepped on the soft carpet, they could not help but sigh.

Being rich was too blissful!

If not for Chairman Ye, they would never have been able to enter such a high-end banquet hall in their lives!

Then, what surprised them the most was what happened next.

All kinds of seafood and delicacies were served on the table like flowing water. Ye Xuan even generously ordered some Romanée-Conti worth millions, and he even ordered an entire box!

He even said that they would try a few bottles first. If everyone liked them, he would order more!

Everyone was stunned by his baller actions.

Putting aside the fact that these delicacies were expensive, just the wine alone cost six million yuan!

Did he have to be such a baller?!

After drinking a few bottles of wine, they would have drunk several houses’ worth of money!

This could no longer be described as a baller. He was a godly tycoon! A super-rich man!

One could tell his class based on his spending. However, Ye Xuan’s spending was too shocking.

With the delicacies in front of them, everyone began to eat heartily.

They were indeed tired after a long day.

Everyone returned satisfied after having good wine and meat.

Then, the others left while Ye Xuan asked Liu Zonglin to stay.

“Chairman Ye, do you have any instructions?” Liu Zonglin asked.

Ye Xuan nodded and said, “Now that the compensation has been paid, we have to put the housing matter on the agenda. How about this? Go and talk to the President of Tianxuan Corporation, Ye Hongliang, about the matter of the villagers’ housing. Remember, try your best to plan good lives for the villagers, understand?”

Liu Zonglin quickly said, “Alright, Chairman Ye. I’ll remember everything.”

Through the demolition matter, Liu Zonglin gained an understanding of Ye Xuan.

He was magnanimous enough and did not care about money at all. However, he would not tolerate villains.

His values were extremely upright, and he had a balance in his heart.

Liu Zonglin admired Ye Xuan even more.

“Also, I hope that the Jinling branch will deepen their cooperation with the Tianxuan Corporation. If there are suitable projects, try your best to contact them.”

After Ye Xuan finished speaking, Liu Zonglin quickly took notes and started to calculate if there was any possibility of collaboration for the current projects in the company.

After Ye Xuan finished speaking, he also thought that the pressure on his father’s side would be reduced a lot.

Finally, Ye Xuan handed a blueprint to Liu Zonglin.

Liu Zonglin took it and opened it. He was stunned.

“This, this is…” Liu Zonglin was so excited that he could not even speak properly.

Ye Xuan smiled. “Yes, this is the distribution map of gold mines. I hope you can be in charge of mining the gold mines in Zhengyang Village.”

“Otherwise, why do you think I demolished Zhengyang Village?”

In an instant, Liu Zonglin, who was initially confused and thought that Ye Xuan was really doing charity, was enlightened!

He was even more impressed. As expected of Chairman Ye, he was indeed different!

Facing such an important mission, Liu Zonglin was extremely excited.

He put away the map of the gold mine with trembling hands and promised Ye Xuan solemnly, “Chairman Ye, thank you for your trust in me! Don’t worry, I will definitely complete the mission you gave me and not disappoint you!”

Ye Xuan did not say much. Handing this mission to Liu Zonglin was the result of his careful consideration.

Be it ability or character, Liu Zonglin was the best candidate.

After Ye Xuan arranged his work and other matters, he instructed Liu Yanran to send him home.
