The village chief was very angry, "Okay, I treat you so well on weekdays, right?!"

"You stay at home all day long. What do you know?"

"If this mountain is for sale, you can only go from here!"

When he said this, the villagers became even more unhappy.

"Every yard is a yard. The mountain is everyone's mountain. Naturally, everyone has the final say whether to sell it or not."

"Village Chief, you can't just think about pocketing the benefits."

"It's fine to go from your place, but the money must be given to all of us!"

Gu Yiyi was very satisfied with this scene. She sat on the stone bench in the yard, took out fruits from somewhere, ate and watched the show, and even handed a handful to Shen Changfeng.

Shen Changfeng took the food and felt helpless.

He could finally see that Gu Yiyi was determined not to make things easier for the people in Jiangjiacun.

The villagers are fighting among themselves, so naturally no one will come to hinder them. This is really a once and for all solution.

The two groups of people were so noisy that they didn't notice Gu Yiyi.

The village chief single-handedly fought against the entire village, which is a mouthful.

Jiang Yurou's previous attention was not on Gu Yiyi, but on how to get the money to their family.

After thinking about it, I found that the problem lies with Gu Yiyina anyway.

So she looked at Gu Yiyi, only to find that she was eating fruits and Shen Changfeng.

Jiang Yurou's anger suddenly rose.

She yelled, "Stop arguing, we have all been fooled by this bitch!"

As she spoke, she pointed at Gu Yiyi.

"Look at her coarse linen clothes, and look at her malicious face!"

"It's useless if we argue like crazy. We can't get the money. People are just waiting to see us fight!"

Gu Yiyi raised her eyebrows, haha, why did this stupid woman start to grow a brain?

The village chief and villagers also reacted at this time.

That's right, the money hasn't been received yet, and the price hasn't even been negotiated. Why are they arguing?

The village chief blushed angrily, "Ms. Shen, how we divide the money is our business. Don't worry about it. We have negotiated the price on this mountain. You just have to pay."

When the villagers heard this, they all sided with the village chief.

"Yes, let's first tell you how much it is per acre, and then we'll talk about anything else after we've negotiated the price."

Gu Yiyi had no intention of defaulting on the debt, so she naturally had no objection to this.

"Okay, then you can discuss the price, but don't wait too long. It's time to eat. I'm hungry, and the children at home are eagerly waiting for us to go back."

They didn't answer her words at all. The village chief and the leaders winked and walked away to mutter with Gu Yiyi on their backs.

Shen Changfeng leaned closer to Gu Yiyi and whispered, "I can hear everything they say. Do you want to hear it?"

The hot breath that hit her face made her ears feel hot, and her thoughts were confused for a moment.

Gu Yiyi whispered back to him, "No, no matter what price they want, I will only give them the price I can offer."

Shen Changfeng said again: "Although the hills are not as good as fertile farmland, one acre costs more than two taels of silver. How much do you want to give?"

Gu Yiyi silently calculated the money in her hand, "Of course I won't press too hard, and it will save them trouble. I will give them the normal price. Don't worry, I know what I know."

Shen Changfeng couldn't help but wonder: "Do you really have that much money? You made thousands of taels in just a few days?"

Gu Yiyi replied: "The money in my hand is not enough to give them, but I will have it in a few days."

Shen Changfeng frowned. Apart from those extravagant gold-selling caves like brothels, why didn't he know what kind of business was so good that ordinary people could make thousands of taels in a few days?

By the way, there is another possibility.

He hesitated and asked, "Is it possible that you sold that piece of Hetian jade?"

Gu Yiyi was stunned and laughed, "No, didn't you say that piece of jade is too eye-catching? If we took it out, others would think we stole it. It doesn't match our identities. I'm not that stupid."

Shen Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not the case, otherwise it would have been troublesome.

Seeing his uneasy look, Gu Yiyi revealed part of it.

"The business I'm running is neither stealing nor robbing, but it won't be successful, and it's not a long-term solution. I just want to make a profit first, so don't worry."

Shen Changfeng said no more, "Okay."

While they were whispering, the village chief and the villagers also discussed the price.

The village chief came over with a smile, "Mother Shen, we agreed that the harvest is pretty good now. For the sake of everyone being neighbors, I will give you a sincere price, thirty taels of silver per acre!"

Gu Yiyi smiled, "The harvest of an acre of fertile land in a year is only three or four taels. Even if it is a good harvest season, I will give you four taels if it is the highest. Do you want to sell me the fertile land? Or the hilltop?"

The village chief waved his hands quickly, "That's not what you said. This mountain is two or three hundred years old after all. We all have worked hard for it. Besides, one acre of fertile land can produce three or four taels a year. This mountain top You bought it, but if it can be passed down to your family, you still get the advantage."

Gu Yiyi sneered: "Food can be grown in fertile land, but what can this mountain do? I can only put it there after I bought it. If it's really a big bargain, why don't you take advantage of it?"

"If you say three ounces or one acre of land, and I buy it without saying anything, will you sell it?"

The village chief glared, "I'm not the kind of person who takes advantage."

Gu Yiyi became impatient, "Okay, don't give me this deal, it's two taels of silver per acre, you can sell it or not!"

The village chief was thinking about whether it was suitable, and someone in the crowd shouted: "Sell, sell, sell, we sell!"

The village chief was angry, "What are you talking about! We haven't even discussed it yet, and you've already made the decision?"

But no one listened to him this time.

Instead, the villagers turned around and tried to persuade the village chief.

"Two taels of silver is not a loss. Let's sell it, village chief."

"We all know the current market situation. Three taels is indeed a bit high. What should we do if people don't want to buy it after a while?"

The village chief snorted, "Okay, then two taels of silver per acre, Mrs. Shen, take the silver."

Gu Yiyi stood up and said, "Why are you panicking? I have to go to the government to get the contract, and I can't do it now."

"Let's do this. In order to reassure you and prove that I can afford the money, let's set up a document."

"I will give each household two taels of silver as a deposit, and then tomorrow the village chief will go to the government to bring people over to inspect the land and transfer the lease."

Naturally, everyone had no objection.

The village chief hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing.

The private school teacher volunteered, brought pen and ink for everyone, and drew up the written documents very quickly.

Gu Yiyi had no problem reading it, and he wrote dozens of copies in a row.

The people in the village gathered around and signed the receipts one by one to receive the money.

In a short while, dozens of families had received their supplies.

Everyone left happily, except Jiang Yurou who stood there with a gloomy expression.
