CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

When Gao Qilin returned home, Gao Qilan, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but start asking him questions. At this moment, she wished that Gao Qilin would lose some money so that he wouldn't have the idea of ​​investing in stocks.

"Things went very smoothly today. I made several times my initial investment as soon as I got started. In a couple of days, Zhao Hu is going to meet me with someone who is particularly good at stock trading. I think things are going much more smoothly than I imagined, and it's not as difficult as you guys say."

After saying that, Gao Qilin recounted what had happened while he was trading stocks that day, and the expression on his face revealed his overwhelming joy.

However, Gao Qilan's reaction was completely opposite. After hearing Gao Qilin's words, her face immediately fell, and she said in a questioning tone:

"You're going the day after tomorrow? Don't you know that Qiangsheng Group has a ton of things to deal with right now? Are you going to neglect Qiangsheng Group's affairs just for stock speculation?"

"How could I ignore the affairs of Qiangsheng Group? I came back this time to deal with those matters. I'll go to the company with you first thing tomorrow morning to arrange everything. After everything is settled, I'll go see Zhao Hu."

Gao Qilan originally wanted to take this opportunity to say a few words to Gao Qilin, but after hearing what he said, she didn't know what to say for a moment. After tidying up briefly, she left directly.

The next morning, the two went to Qiangsheng Group, assigned tasks to the people in the company, and after everything was done, Gao Qilin turned his attention to the village.

Since they hadn't been there for a long time, no one could find out what had become of the fruit trees, so just in case, they went there immediately that afternoon.

As soon as they arrived in the village, the village chief rushed over. Upon seeing them, he appeared very excited and said:

"You've finally arrived! I thought you were going to abandon our village."

After he finished speaking, he looked very troubled, and from his expression, it was clear that something must have happened in the past few days.

"Why are you suddenly like this? Has something happened in the village these past few days?"

Upon seeing the village chief's reaction, Gao Qilin immediately inquired about the situation, fearing it might cause unnecessary trouble.

"When you left, the school was already built. We wanted to take the kids in for a visit, but the construction team said they hadn't received the final payment and wouldn't let anyone in, no matter who came. A few stubborn villagers argued with them, and then..."

· ·······Request flowers·· ········

The village chief stopped there, struggling to hold back his emotions and not cry.

Seeing the village chief like this, Gao Qilan became very anxious and immediately asked:

"Tell us what happened, so we can help you solve it."

"As a result, the construction team beat them up, and they were really bad. Those guys were strong men, but they're still in the hospital now."

"That's unreasonable!"

Upon hearing what the village chief said, Gao Qilin was furious. He disregarded the situation in the orchard and headed straight for the construction team's residence.

........ .... ...

As soon as I arrived, I saw the construction workers strolling around the site like old men, treating it as if it were their own home.

Their attitude changed again only after someone noticed Gao Qilin and his group's arrival.

Seeing this scene, Gao Qilan could no longer contain her anger and shouted at them:

"What are you doing, taking wages and not doing any work? What, you're just loitering around there? What, you're trying to slack off because we're not here to supervise?"

Because Gao Qilan exudes a CEO aura, the room fell silent instantly after hearing her words, and no one dared to utter a single word.

After a short while, the foreman finally emerged hesitantly from the crowd and explained:

“We didn’t slack off. Now that the school and nursing home are built, we really can’t find anywhere that needs us. Plus, we haven’t received the final payment that was promised, so we can’t leave. Although you built those places for charity, we still need to eat.”

Chapter 472 Something Big Has Happened

As soon as the foreman finished speaking, the workers who had been silent all started talking, causing chaos to erupt on the scene.

"Alright, since you say it's already built, can we go and inspect it?"

"this……".

Upon hearing that Gao Qilin and his group were going to inspect the work, the people present fell silent again, and even the foreman who had spoken earlier was momentarily at a loss for words.

"We're just inspecting the work, is it really necessary to make such a fuss? We're short on time this time, we don't have that much time to waste with you guys, hurry up and take us there."

Seeing their behavior, Gao Qilan showed great impatience and headed straight for the school.

Seeing this, the construction team members didn't know what else to say and quickly followed.

Upon arriving at the school, you'll find that it's mostly completed and doesn't differ much from the original blueprints. However, upon closer inspection, you'll discover that many areas where corners could have been cut have been reduced, and even the supporting columns are made of cheap materials.

Seeing this scene, Gao Qilan was furious and roared at them:

"Is this the kind of project you've undertaken? Do you know this is for children? Aren't you worried about accidents happening to them during class?"

Faced with Gao Qilan's roar, all the construction workers lowered their heads, and no one dared to meet her gaze.

"I chose you because I trusted you, but I didn't expect you to treat me like this. This is extremely disappointing. I'll give you another month. If you're still like this after a month, I'll take back not only the final payment, but also all the money I gave you before!"

After saying that, Gao Qilan left without giving the construction team any chance to explain.

"Foreman, what should we do? Should we keep stalling with them, or should we listen to them and renovate this place directly?"

"You have the nerve to ask me about the work you did? Of course, the situation is being revamped now. You don't want all the work you did before to go to waste, do you? Besides, large-scale projects are hard to come by these days. Now that we've finally found one, are you willing to let it go?"

Upon hearing the foreman's words, the workers present immediately understood his meaning. They all returned to their living quarters, picked up their tools, and dismantled all the shoddy construction work.

The construction noise was so loud that it quickly attracted the village chief's attention. He rushed over and found the workers looking distressed after demolishing the school. He said to them:

"Why did you tear down the school that we finally got together? Where will my child go to school after this?"

However, no one present paid him any attention and continued to work on their own.

At this point, the village chief realized that talking to them was useless, so he immediately went to find Gao Qilin and the others.

By this time, they had arrived at the homes of the villagers who had been beaten earlier and took out some money from their own pockets as compensation.

Those villagers had never seen so much money before. They looked quite surprised when they saw Gao Qilin being so generous.

“That won’t do. This has nothing to do with you at all. We’re already grateful that you came to see us, let alone give us money…”

"Yes, we don't have any serious injuries. We'll be fine after a couple of days of rest. We don't need that much money at all."

At this point, the villagers began to decline. It wasn't that they didn't want the money in Gao Qilin's hands, but they felt it was unnecessary.

“I’m giving you this, so take it. This money may seem like a lot to you, but it’s nothing to me. I could probably spend it all in less than half a day, but if I give it to you, you’d probably spend it for a long time. So, who do you think should take this money?”

"This……"

After hearing Gao Qilin's explanation, the villagers felt that what he said made sense, so they didn't say anything more and accepted the huge sum of money after hesitating for a while.

Only after seeing that these people had received the money did Gao Qilan show a satisfied expression, and she said to them:

"If something like this happens again, please let us know. We'll help you come up with a solution. As long as we're here, no one will dare to bully you."

"Something terrible has happened!" 2.8

However, just as Gao Qilan finished speaking, the village chief's voice rang out from outside.

Upon hearing the sound, everyone looked outside and saw him rushing towards them. They were relieved to see Gao Qilin and the others.

Because the village chief had run all the way here, it took him a long time to recover from the feeling of running such a long distance after stopping in front of them.

Seeing the village chief looking so distressed, Gao Qilin quickly said:

"Take your time, there's no rush. We're all here, we'll help you."

Chapter 473 The School Was Suddenly Demolished

"Yes, we're all there now. No matter what happens, we'll lend a hand. There's no need to rush."

After hearing Gao Qilin say that, Gao Qilan agreed and appeared very worried.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with those construction workers. They actually demolished the newly built school today. You should go and take a look. If you don’t go soon, the whole school might be torn down by them.”

"Oh, so that's what it was about. I thought it was something else. Don't worry about what's going on at school. We already know, and we're the ones who made them do it."

Seeing that the village chief was talking about this, Gao Qilin finally felt relieved and explained to him.

"Why did you make them do this?"

After hearing Gao Qilin's words, the village chief was completely confused and had no idea why Gao Qilin did this.

"I don't know if you've inspected the school before, but what they've done is basically a shoddy job. It won't be long before problems arise. Schools are for children, so they naturally need to be careful about safety. If you were in their shoes, would you feel comfortable having your child study in such an environment?"

"This... I might not really know how, but if they start over, how long will we have to wait? We've been looking forward to the school for a long time, and we don't want to keep waiting."

After hearing what Gao Qilin said, the village chief seemed to understand something, but he continued to inquire about the construction schedule.

"Yes, the people in our village have been waiting for this training for a long time. If we keep waiting like this, we won't feel at ease. So please give us a definite answer."

“My child has been nagging to go to school for the past two days. I told him a couple of days ago that he would be able to go in soon. Now that this has happened, how am I supposed to explain it to him?”

After the village chief said this, the other villagers also inquired about it, showing great concern, since it concerned their children.

Seeing their expectant looks, Gao Qilin didn't know what to say, so he looked at Gao Qilan beside him.

They exchanged a glance, and Gao Qilan immediately understood Gao Qilin's intention, standing up and saying to them:

"Don't worry, everyone. The school will be rebuilt soon. Since they won't be paid for the construction this time, if they slow down, it means they're not interested in the money. I don't think the construction teams will do that."

"If they really wanted to address the issue, they wouldn't have immediately made changes after I pointed out the problem, would they?"

The village chief thought Gao Qilan's words made sense, but he was still a little worried. After hesitating for a moment, he went to the side of the school and began to supervise the progress of the construction teams.

After watching for only a short while, the village chief could clearly sense that those people were moving much faster than before. Seeing this, he couldn't help but exclaim:

"She was right. These construction teams are indeed working much faster than before. If this continues, the school should be able to start renovations in about a month."

Thinking of this, the village chief looked quite satisfied.

Ever since he told the village elders about the plan to build a primary school.
