Perfect Life [Rebirth]

Chapter 80

“Rong Yun…” Ding Chaomin took a step forward and grabbed Rong Yun’s arm. His red eyes were almost emitting fire. “No matter how urgent the county’s affairs are, they can’t be as urgent as the affairs of the people… The county and township governments patted their chests and made guarantees to the people…”

"You..." Rong Yun didn't expect Ding Chaomin to be so ignorant. His face turned bad, but when he saw her haggard appearance, he couldn't bear it. He suppressed his anger and said softly, "You are also exhausted. Go back and rest first. We will discuss this matter in the long run..."

Ding Chaomin's heart sank to the bottom, but she still stood in front of Rong Yun stubbornly:

"How can we take a long-term view...wait for the people's medicine to rot in the ground?"

At this point, tears welled up in my eyes:

"It's really not easy for them..."

As a farmer's child, I know best how hard life is for farmers. Not to mention, most of the young people go out to work, and most of those who stay to grow herbs are middle-aged and elderly people.

When they were planting herbs, Ding Chaomin had been following them all the time. He saw with his own eyes that they ate and slept in the fields, and were so tired that they couldn't get up...

After waiting so long for so long, the harvest is finally about to come, but now we are greeted with such despairing news. I'm afraid no one can bear it...

Ding Chaomin couldn't imagine how to face those pairs of eyes full of expectation that had been trapped for too long...

"Please, stay here, let's work out a solution together... If there are any bad consequences, I will bear them all by myself..."

Ding Chaomin was so excited that his voice was trembling.

The last trace of tenderness in Rong Yun's eyes finally disappeared bit by bit. He held Ding Chaomin's hand and slowly but firmly moved it away:

"Chao Min, you are so ignorant."

"When I said there was an emergency, it really was an emergency. I will continue to pay attention to the situation here, and I will actively look for multiple channels to help the people solve these problems. As for those drug dealers who breached the contract, you don't have to worry about it."

That's the Xiao family. Not only is it rich enough to rival a country, but it also has a deep background. Does Ding Chaomin think he can feel better?

If possible, I would like to get out of the predicament together with the people.

But everything has its trade-offs. If you want to go further, you must make a choice.

It is impossible to make those drug dealers change their minds now.

The only solution now is to find other ways to make up for it.

Although Rong Yun despised the Xiao family for making things so difficult for a group of ordinary people, he knew his own limitations and felt that it would be like trying to stop a chariot with a mantis arm if he wanted to deal with Xiao Chao. He was overestimating his own abilities.

And when he said he would look for other ways, he was not joking...

Rong Yun was not prepared to help the evil, but he also understood that since the news in H Province had spread that the Xiao family wanted to interfere in the matter of herbs, if other people wanted to get involved, they would definitely take this factor into consideration. Due to the prestige of the Xiao family, the most likely possibility was that no one would be willing to get involved in this mess.

With his connections, the hope of finding a solution is slim.

Rong Yun was angry, but also felt a kind of unprecedented frustration, and even more disappointed with Ding Chaomin...

I thought they could support each other and be a pair of lovers who understand each other, but Ding Chaomin was clearly being unreasonable and didn't realize her pain at all...

Because of their past friendship, Rong Yun gave Ding Chaomin a piece of advice:

"Things here are too complicated to be explained in a few words. I see that you are not in good spirits. Otherwise, why don't you stay in the hospital for a few days..."

If Ding Chaomin insists on holding those breaching-of-contract medicinal material suppliers accountable, not only will there be no results, but he will also most likely end up in trouble.

It would be better to take a sick leave and stay out of the spotlight for a while...

Thinking that he had fulfilled his responsibilities, Rong Yun turned around and strode away without caring that Ding Chaomin's face instantly turned pale.

Wang Jinghan, who was standing by, almost gnashed her teeth...

Just say that Ding Chaomin is a vixen.

Even at this time, he is still pestering Rong Yun.

Rong Yun's attitude also made her feel a sense of crisis. After all, she was already struggling to take care of herself, yet she was still thinking about helping that vixen. This showed that the rumors about Rong Yun and Ding Chaomin were not groundless.

He sneered and said in a sarcastic tone:

"Village Chief Ding is really a good official who loves his people like his own children. However, the county chief is a man who wants to do great things, so he naturally needs to have a global perspective. He can't be like some people who only care about their own little piece of land..."

As he said this, he turned his butt and chased Rong Yun:

"County Magistrate Rong, wait for me..."

Rong Yun was not stupid, so he knew that the current chaos had caused the situation. Even if Wang Hongyuan was not the mastermind, he was an accomplice. He was extremely annoyed with the father and daughter. As for Wang Jinghan's pursuit, he simply ignored her, got into his car, and closed the door. By the time Wang Jinghan caught up, Rong Yun's car had already sped away.

"Rong Yun..." Wang Jinghan stomped her feet, feeling so aggrieved that she was about to cry.

"It's okay, it's okay," Wang Hongyuan chased after him from behind, "How can I let the man my daughter likes get away?"

"My dear girl, the real owner has left, why are we still staying here?"

Wang Hongyuan was also helpless. He had something else to do, but was called over by his daughter. But who could blame him for having two sons and only this one precious daughter?

"It's all your fault!" Wang Jinghan said angrily... Originally, she helped Rong Yun solve the problem of the medicinal materials dealer. In the past six months, the two of them had been getting along gradually harmoniously. But unexpectedly, just when Wang Jinghan thought they could go further, this kind of thing happened.

"Don't worry, dear girl. Soon our family will be able to move up a level... When that time comes, let that boy come and beg you..."

"Really?" Wang Jinghan looked back at Wang Hongyuan, her expression much more relaxed. Just as she was about to look away, she paused...

There were several familiar faces standing next to Ding Chaomin, whom he regarded as a thorn in his side. Wasn't one of them the bastard who kicked him out of the car?

On Ding Chaomin's right was the young lady with a beautiful face who made her look like dirt...

Wang Hongyuan followed Wang Jinghan's line of sight and saw Ding Chaomin and others turning around and heading towards the town government compound.

I frowned unconsciously...

What do these people do? Although they are only seen from behind, their temperament clearly shows that they are not ordinary people.

Especially the tall girl next to Ding Chaomin...

Director Cheng had previously reminded us to pay special attention to a beautiful girl named Ye Qing from Zhongdu...

Ding Chaomin was in a trance at the moment, his legs were weak, and he was almost half-dragged into the office.

After drinking a cup of hot water handed over by Ye Qing, he regained some energy. Then he noticed that the delicate-looking girl in front of him was a stranger he had never seen before. He was a little surprised and looked at Jin Yuexin in confusion:

"Secretary Jin, this is..."

After the drug dealer breach of contract incident broke out, Rong Yun was furious and the first person he held responsible was the China Merchants Group. Director Wang Weiming was still running around among those drug dealers, while Jin Yuexin had been staying here, accompanying and calming the excited people.

"Oh, Mayor Ding is talking about this girl. She is my brother's..." Just as he was about to say "girlfriend", he was stopped by Li Zheng, "Come on, come on, I have nothing to do right now, brother, take me around."

He held Jin Yuexin's neck and walked out of the door. Cheng Yongzhi followed him out tactfully and closed the door behind him.

"Brother, why are you so secretive? Let me tell you, Township Chief Ding is in a bad mood right now..."

Although Ding Chaomin is a girl, she has a temper. Otherwise, she would not have been able to become the village head at such a young age. As for Li Zheng's girlfriend, she looks like a spoiled city girl. If she was kicked out by Village Head Ding, Li Zheng would have no place to cry.

Little did he know that Ding Chaomin in the room was a little dazed at the moment, looking at Ye Qing in disbelief:

"Did I hear you wrong? You, you just said..."

"That's right... I'm here to buy herbs, such as plantain. I'm sure I'll need some. I'll take as much as we have in Wujialing. As for the others that have been rejected, I need to take a look at their types first before I can decide how much I want..."

"But they don't dare to accept it, how could you..." Ding Chaomin couldn't believe what he saw...

Although he did not hear clearly when he was standing outside the door just now, it was enough for Ding Chaomin to understand that the Chinese herbal medicine in H Province has become a hot potato because of the intervention of a certain big shot.

Didn’t you see that even Rong Yun, who also came from a wealthy family with a considerable background in Zhongdu, backed off?

Suddenly, a girl younger than herself appeared and said that as long as she liked any of the herbs in Wujialing, she would buy them all and the price would never be lower than the market price.

The surprise came too suddenly. Ding Chaomin couldn't believe it was real. He even suspected that there might be some other trap...

"First, we need to make sure that the herbal medicine dealers have indeed terminated their contracts with the farmers. After I have determined the herbs I want, I will prepay half of the funds while signing the contract with the farmers..." The Spring Festival is approaching, and I want these farmers to have a peaceful year. Moreover, Ye Qing really appreciates Ding Chaomin, and Rong Heng...

When Ding Chaomin heard this, he was no longer surprised, but frightened...

Merchants are always profit-driven. The reason why those drug dealers regretted their decision was naturally because someone offered them a higher price, which made them use all their funds to purchase drugs such as rhubarb and gallnut.

So what is this girl trying to do?

"If I say that besides these medicinal herbs, I also want to help you, do you believe me?" Ye Qing blinked, "Or maybe Village Chief Ding should think about whether he has any powerful relatives?"

"Miss, please stop joking..." Ding Chaomin suddenly felt a little frustrated...

If I were Rong Yun, I would have connections, but who am I?

How could Chai Heniu, who was just admitted from the countryside, have such wealthy relatives who dared to go against the big shots?

That's not right, I have an aunt who married into the Rong family...

The Ding family is a typical family with more men than women, with only one girl in each generation.

In my aunt's generation, she was the only girl among the six brothers. My generation is even better, as I am the only girl among my eleven cousins.

It’s a pity that both my aunt and myself fell into the hands of the men of the Rong family.

Even though my aunt and uncle finally got married, it was a pity that they were never recognized by the Rong family. Not only were they kicked out along with my uncle, but they were also controlled in every way.

Every time my father and several uncles talked about this, they got so angry that they couldn't eat.

My aunt lived with my uncle and felt miserable all her life. It was only in the past two years that her life became better. Every time she came back, she would give money to my parents and uncles.

But the old men in the family were always worried that the aunt was just pretending to be rich, and would just send the money back to the aunt. The aunt was a university teacher, and her friends were all intellectuals. As for the connections in the Rong family, she had no idea at all. There was no way she would have the chance to meet a rich and powerful person who dared to confront even the people that Rong Yun was afraid of.

Looking at Ding Chaomin's expression, if I didn't explain it to him in detail, he would never believe it.
