"can."

Yang Xiaoyan cut her hair short and asked simply, "Pay in cash or pay by card?"

"..."

Liu Neng was a little confused.

Unexpectedly, it went so smoothly.

I'm so regretful, I should have asked for more.

I need ten or twenty thousand.

"Cash is fine."

Liu Neng looked miserable and dejected.

It's like missing out on a multi-billion dollar lottery!

swoosh...

Yang Xiaoyan put the money through the counting machine twice before handing it to Liu Neng.

"Just click on it, and if there are no problems, sign here, and that'll settle things."

"so fast."

Liu Neng was reluctant.

The main issue is that the initial request was too small, and the case was closed at an absurdly fast pace.

"Liu Neng, whether the venomous snake that bit you was an escaped member of the group, we won't pursue it. Regardless of who profited from this, it's all over, okay?"

"alright."

Liu was able to sign the paper.

He took five thousand yuan in cash and left the company as if he had lost his soul.

As soon as I returned to the village.

At the entrance of Big Foot Supermarket, when Liu Neng returned, the crowd gathered around to watch him make a fool of himself.

"What, you need the money now?"

"Do you really think people's money grows on trees?"

"We're just small farmers, what can we do to compete with big bosses?"

"Liu Neng, no matter how capable you are, it's not enough."

The villagers shook their heads one by one.

"Look, what... what is this?"

Liu Neng was filled with regret and anger at having asked for less money.

Five thousand in cash.

Liu Neng unfolded his hand into a fan shape and waved it vigorously in front of the villagers, making a rustling sound.

"Wow, they're really giving money! And so much?"

It was a thick stack; the villagers weren't blind.

Those who had just mocked Liu Neng were all dumbfounded.

envy, jealousy, hate!

Farmers toil away all year to earn just a little money, but Liu Neng was given five thousand yuan by them.

This money came too easily!

"So you're just... just fit to be farmers, you're brainless."

"Okay, okay, you're impressive. Aren't you just a country bumpkin too? What's with all the arrogance?"

The villagers all spoke at once.

I started to feel envious. I heard that Shenhui Group had invested tens of millions in the early stages alone. Giving some of that money to the villagers wouldn't be too much.

"Let's go check out the company!"

A few nosy villagers said enviously.

"I'll go as well."

"And me, I haven't gone to the cornfield to weed these past two days, I should get paid for lost work time."

"My son missed two days of school, and the loss is huge. If he can't get into university, blame Shenhui Group!"

A growing number of villagers gathered and went to the company to demand an explanation.

"Old Kuai, quick, you...you go too!!"

Liu Neng ran home as fast as he could.

Li Xiulian was weeding in the vegetable garden in the yard.

"Where to?"

Liu Neng gave a brief explanation.

"Let whoever wants to go, I'm not going!"

"What's wrong? Everyone else is going, but you're not. You're just standing out from the mud, remaining pure and noble. Who are you trying to impress?"

Liu Neng continued to persuade him, "Think about it, if everyone in the village gets... gets one or two thousand, and you have nothing, can you... can you feel at peace with that?"

"You can give this much?"

"That's right! Look at this, Mr. Yang didn't even blink at my 5000 yuan, he just handed it over. He's so...so classy!!"

Liu Neng urged.

"How about I go and take a look?"

Li Xiulian was tempted.

Passing by Big Foot Supermarket, which used to be the main entertainment venue in the village, now there's no one there; everyone's gone to the group to ask for money.

Even Xie Dajiao, while pulling down the roller shutter, was demanding compensation for lost work time.

Although the supermarket was built with the help of the group, Da Jiao felt that she did not owe Xu Hui anything by using Xie Xiaomei's name.

"Liu Neng, what's wrong? You're still going?"

Big Foot asked while munching on a cucumber.

"I'll go take a look, mainly to help... to help Yingzi's mother get money."

Liu Neng gave an awkward laugh.

"Liu Neng, tell me, how much should I be charged for closing my supermarket for two days?"

Big Foot asked casually.

"How do I know?"

Liu Neng was jealous and thought to himself, "You better not take too much."

"I want 30,000 yuan!!"

Big Feet said with a smug look on his face.

"Isn't that... a bit too much?"

Immediately, Liu Neng felt resentful.

"What's wrong with asking for more? My supermarket has a lot of daily revenue, so what's wrong with asking for more?"

Bigfoot said matter-of-factly, "I'm not going to argue with you anymore, I'm leaving."

Xie Guangkun did not participate in the villagers' demand for repayment of debts this time.

After Yongqiang and Xiangxiu had just had an embarrassing incident, Xie Guangkun started going out early every morning with his donkey cart to collect mountain produce.

Yutian Flower Nursery.

"Dad, what are you looking at?"

Zhao Yutian asked.

"I heard a commotion on the street, what happened?"

Zhao Si asked, his mouth twitching.

Like Liu Neng, he also enjoys joining in the fun.

"No, I'll go out and take a look."

Zhao Si returned briskly a few minutes after leaving and called out, "Quick, everyone stop working and go to the company to ask for money."

What kind of money do you need?

Wang Meilan was puzzled.

"These past two days, the venomous snake from Shenhui Group escaped, and the villagers were confined for two days. They deserve their lost wages, and this has also affected the sales of Yutian Flower Nursery!"
