Chapter 212 - 212 Onlooker



“What is going on? Who’s in charge?” Wen An was about to ask this of Chu Ning, as he immediately stood up to welcome them.

However, when Chu Ning saw Wen An walking towards her, she placed her index finger on her lips, indicating for Wen An to remain calm.

“Chief, President Chu is here!” The resident who had welcomed them said excitedly to Wen An.

Wen An looked at Chu Ning helplessly, then at Zhang Bo. He did not know what Chu Ning’s motive was. There was a huge screen in front of the meeting room. A ray of light shone from the projector onto the screen. There were numerous words and pictures on it. This was all the information about Qinghe village that Wen An had compiled.

What attracted Chu Ning the most was the large piece of uncultivated land. Because of insufficient labor, these high-quality production resources were put on hold.

“Village Chief Wen, I would like to ask, what’s the average annual income of the long-term residents of Qinghe village?” Zhang Bo asked, looking at the villagers in the meeting room.

However, before Wen An could say anything, a resident couldn’t help but speak up, “President Chu, we earn more than 20,000 yuan a year just by growing vegetables!”

“Yes, President Chu. Other than selling vegetables, our source of income is really very small.”

“President Chu, you’re here. We’ll have a stable job and income from now on!”

……

With the first person taking the lead, the large conference room instantly became lively. However, Wen An’s expression did not look too good.

He had previously warned the villagers not to make any noise unless he allowed them to speak. Wen An knew very well that he was the only one who could obtain the greatest benefits from Chu Ning for the Qinghe villagers. However, in the current situation, it was no longer appropriate for him to bargain with Chu Ning.

These residents were not scheming, so they would not understand Village Chief Wen An’s thoughts. However, it was not appropriate for Wen An to tell them this directly. After all, Qinghe village and Chu Ning would be working together for the long term. Wen An was not wrong either. From the perspective of the Qinghe villagers, he was simply a good person. He placed the interests of the Qinghe villagers above all else.

However, Chu Ning’s gaze only locked on Wen An and the villagers a few times before she roughly understood the situation.

The corners of her lips could not help but curve upwards slightly. Her heart was already blooming with joy. She did not know if the income of these residents was accurate, but if it had been Wen An who had declared it, his answer would definitely be higher than what these residents had said!

“Village Chief Wen, in the face of benefits, your title as the village chief is not that useful anymore.” Chu Ning thought, full of emotion. She was glad that she had let Zhang Bo pretend to be her for the time being.

If it had been her, the residents might not have been willing to say these words. In their eyes, she was still too young, whether it was in terms of appearance or age. On the other hand, Zhang Bo was calm and quiet. This image was in line with their illusion of a rich man with power and influence.

No one would know that the one who had the right to speak was the young lady seated beside Zhang Bo.

There was another advantage of being an onlooker. Chu Ning could decide how much she wanted to hire them for based on the contents of their conversation, their personality, and other factors.

“I didn’t want this to happen either, but it’s your fault for not having good judgment. Since that’s the case, don’t blame me.”

Chu Ning looked at Wen An’s helpless expression and felt extremely at ease.

Zhang Bo was also keenly aware of something. After that, he spent more time questioning the residents of Qinghe village, including on the cost of renting the land, among others.

When Wen An saw this scene, he could only sigh. He knew that the perfect image he had in mind was no longer possible.

He had envisaged that Chu Ning could only speak with him. Even if Chu Ning had queries, the residents of Qinghe village would not divulge any information.

But now, these residents were all fighting to tell Zhang Bo some important data. Wen An was forced to give up the idea of raising the price.

Chu Ning had the upper hand.

“Wen An, you look gentle and refined. I didn’t expect you to be so scheming.” Chu Ning cursed inside.

After listening for a while, Chu Ning whispered in Zhang Bo’s ear, “We’re almost there, Zhang Bo. Tell them that once they sign the contract, they’ll be each given a basic annual salary of 36,000 yuan. The subsequent raises will be based on their individual ability.”
