Chapter 1318: Berate

Chapter 1318: Berate

“This fellow sure knows how to have fun. It looks like a lot, but in fact, it’s not a lot of money. About the price of a meal? But the commotion caused is indeed better than ours…”

“If not, do you really think that he can control an economic empire without a brain? This fellow always shows his thick side to others. Once the enemy lets down their guard, he will reveal his crafty side. He’s like a snow fox in the icy plains; he may look silly, but he’s actually very crafty,” Nicholas commented.

They nodded their heads in agreement.

As expected, after the two boxes of money were thrown out, the helicopter found a spot to land. Then, Ottosky, who had thrown money from the air, made a grand entrance under the cheers of everyone.

Only Wang Yougui went to both sides, afraid that he would neglect these wealthy people…

Wang Yougui invited the five of them into the village council and took the best tea and food that One Finger Village had to offer.

Indeed, the few people who had never eaten Frost Bamboo were immediately attracted by the bamboo.

After tasting the first-grade Frost Bamboo tea, Li Daguang shouted, “These two are the best!”

“Although this Frost Bamboo tea isn’t as good as the one on the mountain, it’s still pretty good compared to others,” Baird said.

“After I drank the top-grade Frost Bamboo tea, the other teas are bland. I can at least taste the fragrance from this tea. Village Chief, how much of this tea do you have?” Nicholas asked.

Wang Yougui beamed when he heard that. Then, he slowly shook his head. “There’s a lot, but it’s not for sale.”

“What? You’re not selling them again?” The few of them were instantly infuriated. Why was it that every time they were hooked, the item was not for sale? Wasn’t this torture?

Wang Yougui chuckled and said, “To be honest, our Frost Bamboo Tea has already been packaged. It’s a brand that is sold to the public. Previously, the advertisement was rather effective. Many manufacturers have come to make purchases, and they have even called in advance to reserve a portion of it.

“A week later, we will hold a tea festival in Songwu County and officially begin the sale to the public. As for now, we are picking Frost Bamboo tea and running through the production and packaging process. For now, we haven’t distributed it to the public yet. Of course, you are honored guests of our village. We will give each of you a bag of middle-grade Frost Bamboo tea. Yes, it’s much better than the one you are drinking now.”

Upon hearing this, they heaved a sigh of relief.

Ottosky almost decided to just leave. He had never been so angry before.

Fortunately, he waited a little while longer and heralded in good news. When he heard that he could bring back a bag, he didn’t hide his happiness. His mouth was smiling like a blooming flower…

“Thank you, Village Chief.” Baird and the others laughed.

What were they here for? It was to build up ties with Fangzheng. They never imagined such an unexpected gain! Ordinary Frost Bamboo tea was much better than they had expected. It was enough for them to drink normally. The middle-grade tea could probably dominate the tea market as long as the top-grade tea wasn’t put on sale.

Then, the few of them gathered together to discuss the donation.

By the time they left One Finger Village with a bag of tea leaves,

Wang Yougui looked at the five checks in his hand. They were worth a total of 1.5 billion US dollars. His brain was buzzing. Up to now, he felt like he was dreaming…

“Village Chief, how do we spend so much money?” Dog Song and company looked at Wang Yougui with eager eyes.

Who didn’t like money? Everyone liked money!

That amount of money was enough for the entire village to become rich!

“Village Chief, tell me. How should we spend the money?”

“Village Chief, I think our whole village can travel the world together.”

“I want to eat the best!”

“Me too!”

…

People started speaking over each other.

At that moment, a cough interrupted everyone’s shouts. Following that, a stern voice sounded, “What are you shouting about? Have you forgotten who you are because of the money? Where did the money come from? How did it come about? Don’t you know?”

Everyone was stunned.

Following that, Tan Juguo, who rarely managed the village’s matters, slowly walked out and tapped on a smoke pipe. He took a deep breath and said, “What are you looking at? Shouldn’t you be doing what you’re supposed to do?”

“Secretary, we are discussing what to do with the money…” someone mumbled.

Tan Juguo chuckled. “I know, but was that what you should be discussing?”

“Secretary, how do you think we should spend the money?” Chen Jin asked.

Tan Juguo took a puff of the big smoke pipe and spat out a huge smoke ring. He said lightly, “The money isn’t for us. Why should we worry about this?”

Everyone was stunned. What did he mean?

Tan Juguo said, “You still don’t understand? Do you think you have the ability to make those rich people spend money on you?”

When everyone heard that, the flames in their eyes extinguished as they fell into deep thought.

Wang Yougui, who had been put in a difficult spot, immediately came to his senses. “Indeed. They said they were giving us money, but in fact, they are here to build ties with Fangzheng. By using or accepting the money, it’s equivalent to tainting Fangzheng with karma. We can’t use the money.”

The others were enlightened.

Dog Song said, “Then aren’t we giving Abbot Fangzheng trouble? Why don’t we return the money?”

Chen Jin said, “It might be easy to accept it, but it might be difficult returning it.”

Sun Qiancheng said, “Anyway, let’s just not touch it.”

Tan Juguo nodded and said, “Yes. Not only can’t we use it, but we shouldn’t even accept it. However, since we have accepted it, so be it. Whoever’s money it is, it shall be given to who. We’ll see what Fangzheng says.”

When the villagers heard that, they nodded.

Although the money was a lot, they were not that short of money. No one knew how to spend 1.5 billion US dollars.

Everyone had no idea of the concept of this much money.

After the initial fervor, it was as if they had just woken up from a dream. They ended up not having much desire for the money.

Looking at the villagers nodding their heads, Tan Juguo nodded in satisfaction. He said in a righteous voice, “Remember, these kinds of things won’t end with Fangzheng around. We can do business normally, earning money via our own capabilities and have peace of mind when having the cash. If someone comes to give money, firstly, we do not lack money. Secondly, kinship is more valuable than money!”

The villagers continued nodding.

Only then did Tan Juguo pat Wang Yougui on the shoulder. “Go.”

Wang Yougui nodded and put away the check carefully before heading up the mountain.

After some thought, the villagers also dispersed.

Dog Song rushed over and asked Tan Juguo, “Secretary, if you say so, we shouldn’t have taken the Nguyen family’s money.”

Tan Juguo shook his head and said, “That’s different. Back then, Fangzheng was here. Fangzheng didn’t say that we shouldn’t take it, so that means we can take it. Besides, the Nguyen family owes Fangzheng and came to return the favor. Therefore, apart from a small portion of the money earned from selling Frost Bamboo that’s used to improve the village’s basic facilities, the rest is donated in Fangzheng’s name.”
