Kicked out of a wealthy family? I became a rich and beautiful woman thanks to the system.
Chapter 142 Social Unrest
Although this small vendor may also be ripping himself off.
But wasn't the shop owner just ripping himself off too?
It's hard to say how long it will take to dig up this bag of gems, but Wen Yao figured it would be worth it as a labor fee.
She then took out cash from her bag and handed it to the man.
Many people wanted Wen Yao to inspect the goods.
Wen Yao didn't act coy; she collected the gems as she walked forward.
The people surrounding her had basically all sold their goods.
Wen Yao couldn't do anything about the others.
Wen Yao was finally ushered into the car by a group of people.
"Phew~ It gave me a taste of what it's like to be a star."
"Wen Yao, why don't you check how much you bought?"
Several large bags, especially the burlap sacks, filled the trunk.
"Excuse me, can you even fit yourself in them?"
Song Zhiqian's gaze towards Wen Yao has changed.
Chairman Song used to always scold him for being wasteful, but he never understood why money was meant to be spent.
Now he finally understands.
"So this is what I looked like when I was a spendthrift. No wonder my dad scolds me every day."
"Hey, shut up. Who's like you? I'm spending this money for a good purpose. And if all else fails, I can take it back to China and sell it. I'll just open a small shop and it'll be sold out in no time."
Wen Yao took out one and examined it carefully.
"You know what, these real gems are incomparable to anything you can find in a two-dollar store."
Before long, the car arrived at the hotel entrance.
Several people, each carrying several bags, carried the gemstones upstairs.
"Miss Wen, you've spent quite a bit of money."
The manager was already waiting for Wen Yao at the door, and more than a dozen waiters came over to help them carry the gems.
"Bring all these jewels to my room."
Then they went into the elevator.
"Manager, has the mayor arrived yet?"
Wen Yao turned to look at Gu Ji.
"The mayor has just arrived. This way, please."
Then, Wen Yao followed him into an office.
Song Zhiqian was reluctant to go in; he had been busy with Wen Yao all day.
"Forget it, you don't need to follow me anymore."
Then he looked at the bodyguards.
"0004 and 0005, you two follow him."
Song Zhiqian's eyes lit up, and he walked towards the gate.
Wen Yao turned and went into the office.
She never imagined that the man in front of her, adorned with gold and silver, would be the mayor.
Often, the more impoverished a place is, the more corrupt those in power tend to be.
Money is balanced; even if ordinary people are poor, there will always be someone who is rich.
"Hello ma'am, you must be the chairman of Wenyao Group."
After Guji told him about this, he was initially skeptical, wondering how a woman could be the chairman of a company.
However, upon investigation, he found that it was indeed the case; Wen Yao Group owned quite a few businesses and was a formidable tycoon.
Moreover, Wen Yao's daily consumption today exceeds Jincheng's annual GDP.
"Chairman Wen, you want to cooperate with us, right?"
Wen Yao was not at all conflicted
"Yes, you have plenty of sunshine here, especially in the Wujin Desert."
For him, Wujin was a wasteland, but he never expected it to have any value.
“Absolutely no problem. I can lease the Ujin Desert to you, but the annual rent must be 50 billion.”
That's equivalent to 50 million Chinese Yuan.
Wen Yao pursed her lips; this was the most heartless person she had met today.
Black gold isn't worth that much.
The mayor, seeing Wen Yao's spending power today, significantly increased his asking price.
"too much."
Without a second thought, Wen Yao bluntly pointed it out, truly believing her to be a victim of injustice.
"Not many. Our Wujin has plenty of sunshine and beautiful scenery..."
Unexpectedly, the mayor, like Guji, started boasting and self-promoting with his eyes closed.
“50 billion has already exceeded my budget. I was just about to go to another country, but I suddenly thought of another way of cooperation. If you agree, I can give you another 40 billion.”
Wen Yao kept everyone in suspense.
But when the mayor heard that they could ask for an additional 40 billion, his eyes lit up.
He had never seen so much money in his life. He thought to himself that no matter what Wen Yao asked for, he had to agree.
"Chairman Wen, please feel free to make your request."
"I want to buy the black gold directly."
The original budget was 100 million Chinese Yuan, but 10 million Chinese Yuan has already been spent today, and that money was also spent in Ubon Ratchathani, so it has to be deducted from the budget.
God knows the mayor really wanted to agree to Wen Yao's request, but he couldn't; he didn't have the authority.
"Chairman Wen, this—"
"Not for sale?"
The mayor immediately denied it.
"It's not that I don't want to sell, it's that I need to inform the president first."
Wen Yao smiled; she had already seen the mayor's eagerness to sell Wujin.
It is clear that Ujin has absolutely no value in the eyes of the Ubang people.
"But I don't know your president."
"It's alright, I'll let you know. However, you'll need to wait a few more days."
Upon hearing that last sentence, Wen Yao almost fainted. Where did she get so much time to wait?
Time is running out.
"But my time is very precious. Could I see your president beforehand?"
The mayor thought for a while
"Well, that's not impossible, but it'll cost extra."
Wen Yao pursed her lips, realizing for the first time that such a despicable way of making money was being used.
So, is this money given to the mayor or the president?
She has to deduct it from the budget!
Wen Yao was angry as she thought about it.
“Is 1000 million enough?”
She said those words with a sigh, intending to humiliate the mayor with a mere 100,000 Chinese yuan.
"That's enough, more than enough. This much money can help you cut in line."
Wen Yao fell silent. She had originally intended to use the 100,000 yuan to humiliate the person in front of her, but she never expected that he would actually accept it.
The mayor took the money and left.
Wen Yao didn't know whether the 100,000 yuan was reliable or not. In any case, she couldn't place too much hope on it and had to think of other ways.
Wen Yao walked to the window and watched a black sedan drive into the Presidential Palace.
He actually took the money to the president.
Guji stayed in his office the whole time.
"Don't worry, Miss Wen, the president will definitely see you."
"Ten thousand dollars will get me a meeting with the president?"
Guji shook his head.
"You've even been featured in our local newspaper!"
After saying that, he took out a newspaper.
The female CEO of Dragon Kingdom is going to invest in Jincheng.
There's also a photo of her on it.
“Miss Wen, we haven’t seen someone as wealthy as you in Ubon for many years. Look at all those people downstairs, they’ve all come here specifically to see you.”
She only spent a small amount of money, yet it still caused social unrest.
Wen Yao noticed the group of people gathered downstairs in the afternoon, and she thought they were begging.
"So, this 100,000 yuan is just your queue-jumping fee. Whether you pay it or not, the president will see you! You are currently the richest person in Ubang!"
