Rural Romantic Life

Chapter 255 The timid starve, the bold feast.

When Liu Dafu saw Liu Xianggui's mocking look, he knew that the other party wanted him to step forward and pour cold water on the villagers who were currently full of enthusiasm, so that everyone could sober up.

Similarly, he naturally did not want his acquisition rights to be so easily snatched away by Lu Yang.

After all, he makes a considerable profit every year from buying peaches.

How could he possibly stand by and watch the delicious treat in his mouth be snatched away by that little fool, Lu Yang?

Although he knew Lu Yang was skilled, he guessed that in front of so many people, the other party would definitely not dare to easily attack him.

So he steeled himself and stepped forward, then loudly proclaimed to the entire village, "Everyone, calm down. While it's fantastic that Lu Yang is offering to buy your peaches at twenty yuan per jin, I must remind you that the village has no less than a million jin of peaches. If he really buys them at twenty yuan per jin, have you actually calculated how much that would cost?"

Upon hearing Liu Dafu's voice, the previously noisy scene instantly quieted down. These villagers weren't fools; they immediately began to calculate in their minds, and some even took out their mobile phone calculators and started to do calculations in a very professional manner.

A middle-aged man who had a high school education suddenly exclaimed, "I've calculated it! If Lu Yang really buys all the peaches in the village at twenty yuan per kilogram, even if we calculate based on a million kilograms, it would require at least twenty million yuan!"

boom!

When the figure of 20 million was announced, it was like a real thunderbolt, leaving all the villagers present stunned.

When have they ever seen so much money? The most money they've ever seen before is probably fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, or two hundred thousand at most.

Now, with the figure of twenty million falling, how could they not feel their minds go blank, and even doubt that they had heard correctly?

Instantly, the villagers began to have doubts: "Twenty million! That's not just virtual currency, it's real money! Does Lu Yang really have that much money to buy all our peaches?"

"Could he be playing a prank on us on purpose?"

"What a disappointment! Lu Yang is such a master at playing tricks on people, it's outrageous..."

Although the figure of 20 million made many villagers seriously suspect that Lu Yang was deliberately playing a trick on them and making fun of them, some villagers still felt that things were not so simple.

After all, Lu Yang had the newly arrived beautiful village party secretary broadcast it over the loudspeaker. If they didn't believe Lu Yang, did they think the new beautiful village party secretary was joking with them?

The other party is, after all, the village party secretary, and one who was parachuted in from the county. How could he possibly be joking around with Lu Yang like that?

These people frowned and looked at Lu Yang, ready to see how he would explain himself to everyone.

Seeing that his mere words had made most of the villagers begin to distrust Lu Yang, Liu Dafu couldn't help but smile smugly.

He also deeply disbelieved that Lu Yang could really come up with a huge sum of 20 million yuan at once and buy up a large quantity of peaches from the whole village at a price of 20 yuan per kilogram.

Having bought peaches in Peach Blossom Village for many years, he naturally knew that if he really bought peaches at the sky-high price of twenty yuan per kilogram, he would definitely lose everything.

His gaze also fell upon Lu Yang, eager to see how Lu Yang would explain his nonsensical explanation to everyone so that the villagers would completely believe him.

As Lu Yang solemnly explained the acquisition matters in front of all the villagers, he also spotted the village chief Liu Xianggui and Liu Dafu in the distance.

He naturally guessed that Liu Dafu's sudden appearance here must have been because he had called the other party in advance, preparing to watch him make a fool of himself.

At this moment, Liu Dafu questioned him in front of everyone, naturally intending to add fuel to the fire, to completely ignite this farce, and to make him truly unable to extricate himself from the situation, so that he would never be able to hold his head up in the whole village again.

Lu Yang saw the mocking smile on the other person's lips, but he didn't care at all. Instead, a mocking smile appeared on his own lips.

He immediately spoke loudly, "Listen to me, everyone! Although I, Lu Yang, used to be a fool and might have done some crazy things, my mind has now returned to normal. I solemnly assure you all that everything I've said is true, and I'm not lying to you in the slightest!"

"As for whether I have 20 million, just bring your family's peaches to me, and I'll take them all!"

"I'm not talking nonsense, I'm serious!"

After Lu Yang finished speaking, his gaze swept over Li Ergou, Li Taohua, Liu Xiangqiao, and Li Hongxia in the crowd.

The group immediately understood his expression. Li Ergou was the first to raise his hand and shout to Lu Yang, "Xiao Yang, they don't believe you, but I believe you!"

"If you buy them now, I'll have all the peaches from our orchard shipped to you immediately. What do you say?"

Lu Yang smiled and said, "Brother Er Gou, I keep my word. Since you're willing to sell to me first, I'll take them all. Have them all shipped over!"

Li Ergou immediately pretended to hurry home, looking like he couldn't wait.

Suddenly, Li Taohua, Liu Xiangqiao, and Li Hongxia also spoke up one after another: "Xiaoyang, since you're serious, I'm willing to sell you our peaches. I'll have someone bring them over to you right now!"

Lu Yang nodded in agreement, saying, "Okay, then you all go and bring over your peaches!"

"I'll set up a collection point in the village square right away and start buying peaches in bulk!"

He then deliberately addressed the other villagers, saying, "Let me make this clear first: first come, first served. Don't miss out!"

Upon hearing Lu Yang's words, some of the bolder villagers immediately reacted and said to Lu Yang, "Xiao Yang, I believe you too! I'll pick our peaches and bring them to you right away. You absolutely must buy ours!"

After saying this, the villager ran towards his house without stopping, intending to ask someone to pick all the peaches from his tree.

As the saying goes, the timid starve, while the bold feast.

If Lu Yang really buys a large quantity at a price of twenty yuan per kilogram, he has to be the first to try it. What if the other party buys enough quickly and it's not his turn?

Didn't that mean missing a golden opportunity to make a fortune?
