Reborn in 95, I unearthed a gold mine after the family split up.

After saying this, Li Sancheng hurriedly left with his men...

After they left, Zhang Guangyao looked anxious.

“Nephew, it seems we can’t be too happy yet. After all, the other side has already gotten wind of such a big opportunity and is certainly not willing to let the development rights of this jade mine fall into our hands just like that.”

Zhang Dong nodded, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

"If the other side intends to take action, they will definitely try to find a breakthrough by targeting the villagers, after all, they lost because of this in the first place."

Zhang Guangyao was utterly astonished: "What, nephew? They want to tamper with the villagers? What kind of tampering could they possibly be doing?"

Zhang Dong smiled and said, "Anyway, all I can think of is that they want to turn the tide. Otherwise, they would actually have no reason to stay here."

"We should know what happened by tomorrow, so let's get a good night's sleep tonight..."

The next morning, Zhang Dong received news from Li Sancheng.

"Boss, these mining company workers from the provincial capital are following our example. They bought a box of milk and a barrel of oil for every household in the village, and they've already transported them to the village by truck."

"What? Is that so? Come on, let's go take a look."

After Zhang Dong called Zhang Guangyao, he and Li Sancheng arrived at the village.

On the main road in the village, a large truck loaded with milk and cooking oil was seen.

The staff from Xinda Mining Company, who came from the provincial capital, were enthusiastically shouting and promoting their products to the villagers.

Zhang Guangyao, who saw this scene from afar, looked surprised.

"Hey nephew, what's going on here?"

Seeing that there were quite a few villagers watching, but no one went up to collect the milk and cooking oil, Zhang Dong was also puzzled, so he went outside the crowd.

Now almost everyone in the village knows that the people from Xinda Mining Company in the provincial capital are going to distribute milk and cooking oil to every household, so more and more villagers are gathering.

Without asking anyone, Zhang Dong understood what was going on after listening for a while.

Then an old man said angrily, "Damn it, so this box of milk and this barrel of oil aren't for free. They want us to withdraw our votes from yesterday after we take them. Is this a joke?"

“Exactly,” a middle-aged man chimed in. “It’s truly an eye-opener. I never imagined that the staff of this big company in the provincial capital could be so despicable.”

“Even I, an ordinary citizen, understand this principle: what is said is like water spilled on the ground. We all chose Zhang Dong to develop our village’s jade mine, and now they’re doing this; they really have no bottom line.”

After hearing this, Zhang Dong was also speechless.

Last night he had a feeling that the staff of Xinda Mining Company in the provincial capital would definitely try to take advantage of these villagers.

Unexpectedly, the other party resorted to such underhanded tactics, actually trying to get them to withdraw their votes from yesterday after receiving the milk and cooking oil.

I could hear the staff of Xinda Mining Company still vigorously promoting and encouraging us.

"Fellow villagers, what are you all standing there for? If you do this, every household will receive a carton of milk and a can of cooking oil. Isn't that much better than the packet of tea and pastries that Zhang Dong gave you yesterday? Hurry up and come over to collect them!"

Before the staff member could finish speaking, he was met with sarcasm and ridicule from several villagers.

"You've no bottom line. You're trying to make us sit back down when we're taking a dump. Is that something a human being would do?"

“Zhang Dong gave us a gift yesterday as a token of our friendship.”

"How can you compare to them? You're poaching their talent."

"Although your barrel of oil and carton of milk are much more valuable than the snacks Zhang Dong took, we ordinary people have discerning eyes. We can't turn our backs on you. A person can't break their word..."

One sentence made the faces of the staff of Xinda Company turn dark.

Zheng Wankui, standing to the side, looked like a wilted eggplant.

Last night, they discussed this plan outside the village. Their idea was to stay here, undermine the villagers, and offer them small favors to make them change their minds.

Unexpectedly, after buying milk and cooking oil, they were scolded red-faced and stern-faced by these people they considered country bumpkins.

Seeing this, Zhang Dong shook his head speechlessly.

To put it bluntly, this is malicious competition.

Fortunately, the villagers put the overall situation first and understood the bigger picture.

Zhang Dong was the first to disagree with anyone who said the villagers only cared about petty gains.

The villagers of Black Tiger Village right now are proof of that.

It's often said that the eyes of the masses are discerning, and that's certainly true.

Seeing that these people from Xinda Mining Company still wanted to deceive them, Li Sancheng, who was standing to the side, led his henchmen and began to drive them away like wild dogs.

"Get lost! We've already decided to support Zhang Dong, yet you shamelessly offer us these paltry favors, making us break our promise."

"Get out of here, or don't blame us for being impolite—"

Seeing the village thugs step forward and chase them away, Zheng Wankui had no choice but to lead his men away from Black Tiger Village like rats in the street, slinking away in disgrace...

"Hahaha, that's fucking satisfying. I've wanted to do this ever since I saw these guys acting all high and mighty."

"The villagers of Black Tiger Village may be poor, but they're not stupid. They don't actually think we like to treat them like ancestors. To hell with being high and mighty—"

The villagers watched them flee in the direction they had fled, and they all burst into laughter.

Seeing this, Zhang Dong couldn't help but smile happily.

But at the same time, Zhang Dong also understood that the reason he ultimately won the votes was based on the most basic mutual respect between people.

No one is a savior.

Those who put on an air of superiority will ultimately end up like these people from Xinda Mining Company in the provincial capital...

After securing the mining rights to the jade mine, Zhang Dong immediately took action, purchasing equipment and recruiting miners.

During this time, his uncle Zhang Guangyao had already returned to Woniu Village.

Meanwhile, in Black Tiger Village, Zhang Dong appointed Li Sancheng as the security captain.

Zhang Dong felt that once someone like this turned back, it would truly be a case of a prodigal son returning home, more precious than gold.

That's how it was with that guy, Brother Dao. And after Li Sancheng became the security captain, he and his men worked diligently...

At the same time that Zhangdong was developing its mines, the village's livestock farm also started construction.

In the end, Zhang Laizi and his wife Li Guirong happily became the first batch of breeders at the farm...
