A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous
Chapter 206: Non-Clan Hearts
The village chief discussed with several prominent elders in the village, mainly hoping to get everyone's agreement and be willing to provide 60% of the food rations.
Wang Baoquan's family was wealthy, so of course he was also invited.
In order to prevent people from implicating Wen Meijiu in the matter, the village chief deliberately did not mention that Wen Meijiu contributed 20%, wanting to wait until the matter was settled before talking about it.
If everyone claimed their share, Wen Meijiu's order could be smaller, after all, she was a junior.
"Everyone knows the situation. I was the one who proposed this matter. I'll give you guys an example and I'll pay 20%.
As for the rest, everyone can take a look. Whoever has extra can give more, and whoever doesn’t have extra can give less.
After we decide, we can let other juniors do the rest, what do you think?"
My brothers, you look at me, I look at you, no one speaks first, everyone is waiting to see what others will do.
As for hiring a guard team, everyone has no problem with that. We have all experienced dangerous things and the feelings are the same.
However, they were on the road fleeing famine, and food was extremely precious. It would be painful for anyone to take it from them.
Fortunately, the village chief said that those who have should be given more, and those who don’t have should be given less, so there is still room for mediation in this matter.
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, the first person to express his dissatisfaction stood up. Wang Baoquan took a puff of his pipe and slammed the pipe bowl hard on the corner of the small table, immediately shaking out a pile of ashes with sparks.
Everyone looked at him. This was tantamount to giving the village chief a hard time. That was, after all, a small table for eating. He was just knocking off the cigarette ash, which was tantamount to trying to burn the table people were using to eat. This was a demonstration!
The village chief also expected that things would not go so smoothly, so he raised his eyelids and looked at him, saying slowly but firmly:
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't take it out on me, brother. If you break it, you can't afford to pay for it."
Wang Baoquan did not show any weakness either, and continued:
"You can afford to pay but you won't. Your behavior is getting more and more confusing. You said you came up with this idea yourself, but why don't I believe you?
The girl named Meijiu just came to your place, and you asked us brothers to come over. Do you think we are fools?
Brother, we can't let that girl lead us by the nose.
How come she, a little girl who is still wet behind the ears, is so good at talking? "
"You, I knew you would overthink it. She came here with the wine because she wanted me to talk to her aunt and stop gossiping behind her back."
Wang Baoquan brought up Wen Meijiu again, and it was difficult for the village chief to avoid him.
"Humph, I don't believe it, but I guarantee that she came to you to recruit a guard team.
If I guess wrong, I will tear my head off and let you sit on it as a stool."
Seeing the village chief protecting his own people, Wang Baoquan became even angrier. If the village chief had discussed this matter with him first, or if he had proposed it, he would never have objected so much.
At their age, who doesn’t want to show off in front of others? Even if it costs money and effort, it is worth it.
But the one who made the suggestion was Wen Meijiu, who would always oppose him in everything, and he would never agree to it even if he died.
The village chief also discovered that in front of Wang Baoquan, you can't even mention warm wine. Once you mention it, he will run around like a monkey, and be very angry.
"Okay, okay, let's do as you say. She was the one who proposed this matter, and it's for the good of everyone, right? Does hiring a guard team mean they can protect their family? Won't you all benefit?"
The village chief couldn't hide it, and it still didn't work if he made it clear. Wang Baoquan seemed to have caught the village chief's handle, his eyes widened, and he said angrily:
"I knew it was her. She always came up with some naughty ideas, but she never did anything good.
Everyone else's blood is thicker than water, but she is the only one who always drives her own family away. She even has the nerve to ask you, brother, to make peace with her aunt. If someone like her falls into my hands, I will just slap her a few times, but she won't die.
To say that she has forgotten her roots is an understatement. She even wants to bully us? That’s impossible.
If you have the guts, let her provide the food by herself."
Just say it! Wang Baoquan even banged his pipe on the corner of the table, making a banging sound, which scared those who agreed with him and those who disagreed with him, so much that they either hunched their shoulders or covered their ears.
"Why, do you still want to rebel?
Whether she is good or not, the old Wen family will make their own judgment, and I am not the head of the Wen family for nothing."
The village chief slammed his hand on the table and stood up suddenly.
In front of everyone, the village chief never excluded Wang Baoquan, a person with a different surname. Instead, he glared at him, which showed that he did not take him seriously and he had to teach him a lesson.
Sure enough, the village chief's shout suppressed Wang Baoquan's urge to overturn the table.
After the battle died down, Wang Baoquan was silent for a while, and said reluctantly:
"Okay, I was reckless just now. Don't take it personally, brother. I'm targeting the matter, not the person."
The village chief did not intend to forgive him immediately, and said harshly:
"To be honest, even though Meijiu is a girl, she is no less capable than men. She is more open-minded than you and has already said that she will give out 20% of the grain."
Although Wang Baoquan was criticizing Wen Meijiu, getting angry in front of the village chief was a loss of face and dignity for the village chief. He had to teach him a lesson and make him lose face.
The village chief was already furious. What he had just said had been made clear, implicitly and explicitly, that even if there was any problem with the Wen Meijiu, it was the Wen family's business and he would handle it.
This is undoubtedly sending a message to everyone that they all have the surname Wen, and all the bad things are rotten in the pot, and others have no right to point fingers.
There is no one with the surname Wen who would not want this kind of protection.
If you want to have it, you must support the village chief's opinion so that you will be favored when it is your turn.
Not to mention, Wen Meijiu has already agreed to pay 20%. Regardless of whether this matter will succeed or not, his vision alone is much higher than Wang Baoquan's.
"Brother, I am willing to pay a little, but I have to go back and discuss it with my wife at home."
"Brother, I am willing to do so. We need to go back and discuss it."
"Me too......"
As soon as the village chief got angry, everyone spoke up and took a clear stance, leaving only Wang Baoquan sitting alone in a corner of the table.
"Okay, you all go back and discuss this with your families. This is not a trivial matter after all."
The village chief knew that this matter could not be resolved quickly, and having everyone's words of support was already quite good, so he gave everyone a chance to consider it.
"Brother, I'm going back first."
"Let's go."
The village chief didn't look very happy and wanted to be alone for a while. This matter could not be discussed further.
"Brother, I'm leaving too."
Someone else agreed and the village chief nodded.
The people behind him said goodbye to the village chief and left one by one, and finally only Wang Baoquan was left.
After everyone left, the atmosphere became even more depressing. Wang Baoquan finally couldn't sit still and stood up, holding onto the corner of the small table.
"Brother, I'll go back and discuss it too."
The village chief didn't even look at him, he just waved at him, which meant the two of them didn't fall out.
After leaving the village chief, Wang Baoquan snorted, feeling lucky that he hadn't said anything final. He had only said he would discuss it, but didn't say he was willing. Even if they could discuss it, it might not work out!
