The village beauty and me!

"Aren't they from another village? What do they want with the woods in our village?" Chen Huan asked directly.

Zhao Dashan shook his head. "I don't know either, but the Li family has been trying to control the forests under the jurisdiction of the surrounding villages for the past six months."

"It seems that, apart from our Peach Blossom Village, the rest of this area has fallen into their hands."

"They wouldn't tell us when we asked, they just made a guarantee that once the contract was signed, they would give us 300,000 yuan, the forest would belong to them, and my sister would marry into their family."

Chen Huan curled her lip. "Buying a tree in the forest to give to your daughter, huh? That's a good deal."

Zhao Jingjing kicked him from the side, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Zhao Dashan was dumbfounded.

Now, looking across the entire Peach Blossom Village, who would dare to lay a hand on Chen Huan?

My girlfriend is too fierce.

Judging from Chen Huan's expression, he didn't seem angry. Could this be the legendary case of one thing subduing another?

Now Zhao Dashan is increasingly convinced that Zhao Jingjing and Chen Huan are definitely having an affair, and there is no other possibility.

Chen Huan rubbed his backside and muttered, "Is there a problem with me telling the truth?"

How large is the woodland managed by our village?

He had already calculated it in his mind; the bride price in this area was usually around ten or twenty thousand yuan.

In other words, the 300,000 yuan was supposedly a bride price, but it was actually just money for renting out the forest.

The Li family's asking price wasn't low, mainly because Peach Blossom Village itself is small, and the area of ​​the forest they manage isn't large either.

Zhao Dashan casually pointed out the edge of the village, "It's about a hundred or two meters out from the east end to the west end of the village."

"Go all the way to the top of the mountain, it's about a few miles."

Chen Huan knew without looking that Zhao Dashan was referring to the specific scope.

After all, I've been to the woods a few times, so I'm quite familiar with the environment.

The circle I just drew includes the core of the spirit-gathering array.

In the past, people from the surrounding villages never dared to venture into the deep mountains.

  

Because there are fierce wild boars in there, and sometimes wolves, or even more ferocious animals.

Even when they go into the mountains, they only dig up some mushrooms or something nearby.

Therefore, Chen Huan was not worried that anyone would covet the core of the spirit-gathering array.

Now that someone wants to contract the mountain forest, the situation is quite different.

Putting aside what they plan to do, and whether they will discover the secret of the spirit-gathering array.

Once the land is contracted out, you'll have to be at the mercy of the contractor if you want to go into the mountains again.

Even digging for medicinal herbs has become a luxury.

This is something Chen Huan absolutely will not allow.

"Chen Huan, what are you thinking? Did you understand what I just told you?"

"In short, you must give me a satisfactory answer to this matter!" Zhao Siming urged impatiently.

Chen Huan raised an eyebrow. "Just like you said, I'll give you the 300,000 yuan. Just like that guy surnamed Li, I want to contract the forest."

"What, you want the forest too?"

"Then will you marry my sister?" Zhao Dashan's face showed a look of surprise.

Zhao Jingjing stood next to Chen Huan, equally shocked, and then lowered her head shyly.

"Are you deaf? I already said I only want the forest, not people," Chen Huan replied seriously.

"What about my sister? You two are already having an affair. Are you going to abandon her now?" Zhao Dashan shouted at the top of his lungs.

"If you can't speak properly, then shut up!" Zhao Jingjing was furious.

Chen Huan coughed twice. "My business with Zhao Jingjing is none of your concern."

"No matter what, I can't measure Zhao Jingjing's value in money like others do."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jingjing's previously tense face immediately broke into a smile.

Zhao Dashan was about to speak when his father glared at him, and he obediently shut up.

Zhao Siming looked Chen Huan up and down, and after a moment, asked, "Do you have 300,000?"

Chen Huan calmly replied, "That's not something you should worry about. Anyway, if you can agree to the conditions I just mentioned, the money will be in your account immediately."

A shrewd glint flashed in Zhao Siming's eyes, and he was about to speak.

Chen Huan guessed that the old man probably wanted to make some demands, and might even try to extort him.

So he said first, "I'll only take 300,000, and I don't care about anything else."

"If you still want to take advantage of this situation, then don't even open your mouth."

Whether you go to jail or die is none of my business.

Zhao Siming was speechless, his mouth agape.

After a long pause, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, the contract can be signed."

"But this money..."

Chen Huan raised his eyebrows. "Isn't this money meant to be used for accounting purposes? Naturally, it should be kept in Peach Blossom Village's accounts."

"Don't even think about embezzling a single penny."

Zhao Siming's face darkened. "Who do you think you are?"

"Given the current situation, how could I possibly still have such thoughts?"

"But the new village officials arrived in the last couple of days. This 300,000 yuan is like a big piece of fat meat, just sitting there. Isn't that like feeding others?"

Seeing Zhao Siming's pained expression, it was clear he was still after the money.

Sure enough, this guy immediately said, "How about starting a project or something, like building a processing plant, or something else?"

Chen Huan resolutely refused, "Don't think about these things. It's already the greatest favor you can do for me to avoid going to jail."

"You have to understand, I only paid this money because of Zhao Jingjing."

"If you keep arguing, I'm not going to take over this mountain."

Zhao Siming quickly nodded, "Okay, whatever you say, since you're the sugar daddy anyway."

"Now that it's settled, shall I go and draft the contract for you?"

"Jingjing, spend some quality time with Chen Huan."

Zhao Siming gave an order, and then, supported by Zhao Dashan, quickly returned to the house.

They were probably in a hurry to draft the contract, afraid that Chen Huan would back out halfway through.

"Chen Huan, is what you just said true?"

"Did you take out this money because of me?" Zhao Jingjing turned to face Chen Huan, staring at him without blinking, her expression slightly shy.

Chen Huan scratched his head, smiled, and said, "Of course! Didn't I come here today to save you?"

"You're so good to me, I don't know how to repay you." Zhao Jingjing swayed slightly, her eyes seemingly carrying a hint of suggestion.

"If you really want to repay me, how about working for me for free for ten years?" Chen Huan replied immediately.

"Huh?" Zhao Jingjing was stunned; this was not the answer she wanted.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn't it be something like repaying someone with one's body?

"If you want to repay me, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. There's no need to rush." ​​Chen Huan stopped joking.

He then picked up the phone, opened the chat app, and contacted Xiaoying.

"Sister Shadow, I'm in a bit of a predicament. Could you please transfer one million to me first? Thank you."

The message was sent, and Xiaoying quickly responded, "What's the trouble? Just give me your card number, and the money will be transferred immediately."

"But you little rascal, when are you going to keep your promise? Are you free tonight? Liu Qian and I have found a good place to wait for you, how about it?"

If you're worried you can't handle two, then we can arrange a meeting just the two of you.
