Rebirth in 1987, the fierce wife is not to be messed with!

Chapter 43: Not giving a cent, what does that mean?

He took out a white sand cigarette, but didn't light it. He tapped the filter tip on the table and said, "Face is one thing, but if I don't give them a dime, how can I explain to the villagers at the year-end meeting? That's all collective income!"

Jiang Dajian's face darkened and he said, "We are going to use this land to develop real estate! That's a unique skill I learned from the boss in the factory! When the time comes, when we sell the house, the interest alone will be enough for our entire village to live a luxurious life! You are letting go of a hen that lays golden eggs!"

Jiang Ruhai shook his index finger and said in a long voice: "You can't say that. In the past two years, our village has contracted out so much land, and we have never failed to collect money. Also, since you mentioned Hongjie, you should know that Hongjie has to pay nearly 100,000 yuan a year to rent the land to Hepang Village, and the price is rising every year. Hepang Village can't even make up the rent now, how many second-generation rich people are supported? We don't say we want that much money, more or less, just a token of our appreciation, we have to ask for it."

The flesh on his face trembled, and Jiang Peiwei stretched out two fingers in pain.

Jiang Ruhai narrowed his eyes and said, "Two hundred yuan per mu?"

"..." Jiang Peiwei said, "Twenty."

Jiang Ruhai slapped the table hard, "Ah!"

Even Jiang Baiyan couldn't help but stand up suddenly: "Jiang Peiwei, didn't you tell me this before!?"

Jiang Ruhai said with a gloomy face: "Twenty yuan is just to send away a beggar!"

Jiang Peiwei said: "Willn't this mean that we can raise the price when we make money later?"

"There is no future!" Jiang Ruhai simply didn't bother to waste time talking to him and said directly, "Someone has already rented that piece of land before you! They are very straightforward! If you want to get into real estate, find another place."

Jiang Peiwei was shocked: "What?! It was rented by someone?! Who?! It's obviously a piece of rotten land where no hair can grow..."

Jiang Ruhai looked gloomy and waved his hand, saying, "It doesn't matter who it is. What matters is that they are willing to give money and give it readily! Ah Wei, you are smart, but too stingy! How can you accomplish anything big like this! Let's go!"

After being rebuked by Jiang Ruhai, Jiang Peiwei and his son walked out of the village committee with their noses and faces humiliated.

Jiang Dajian was very unhappy along the way and complained, "Ah Wei, you are such a jerk. You came here without even asking about the market price. I, your father, have lost all my face."

Jiang Peiwei hung his head, looking unhappy, and muttered, "But Jingjing clearly told me that it was inside information, how come someone else got it first? Dad, can you also help me find out? What do those Hong Kong people in the machinery factory say?"

Little did they know that Jiang Dajian was just bragging. He had no say in front of the people of Hong Kong. He was so angry that his eyes bulged: "Why do you want me to take care of my son's affairs? I gave you all my savings after so many years of hard work, but you didn't use them properly and you still blame me..."

He did give Jiang Peiwei several thousand yuan, which was a lot of money. Jiang Peiwei had to keep silent because he was owed a debt of gratitude. He tried hard to think who could have intercepted the money. After thinking about it, he realized that people have three urgent needs. He was a person with no manners. He turned a corner and went behind the village committee wall and pulled down his pants to solve the problem.

"Secretary, you are wise. If I had known that Jiang Peiwei was a hollow old man, I would not have made things difficult for Yuan Yuan. Do you think she will blame me?"

It was Jiang Baiyan who was talking. Jiang Peiwei was startled and continued to eavesdrop. Jiang Ruhai said, "No. That girl is a sensible person. She looks more reliable than Ah Wei."

Jiang Baiyan chuckled and said, "He's very generous and straightforward. He rented the land for a year at a flat price. He's a man of action..."

Jiang Peiwei could no longer hear what they said afterwards. His head was buzzing and he had only one thought: Yuan Yuan, why is it you again?!

"Son, which one is Yuan Yuan?"

It was the first time Jiang Dajian heard Yuan Yuan's name, and he didn't quite understand why his son came out with a dark face. It was no wonder, since the divorce, Yuan Yuan's name had become a taboo word in Jiang Peiwei's family.

Jiang Peiwei was very upset at being intercepted for no reason. He was furious: "That woman is my ex-wife. She is very fickle! Now that she is away from me, she is restless!"

Jiang Dajian's eyes widened: "Hey?! My son was ridden on by a woman?!"

Jiang Peiwei said with a sour face: "Dad, I am not happy when you say that! I tell you, that woman loved me to death before, and she cried and begged to marry me even though she had a falling out with her family! It's just that she is a little poor, and her dowry is only a few hundred yuan, which is far less than Jingjing's. That's why I took Jingjing's!"

Jiang Dajian actually believed his words. Not only did he not despise Jiang Peiwei, he even gave him a thumbs up: "Good son, you are capable, just like your father!"

Jiang Peiwei was not happy at all. He grimaced as if he had a toothache: "If I had known that woman was so capable of causing trouble, I would have taken a step in advance and suppressed her! Now that the land has been taken away, could it be that she has heard some news? But it is impossible... Unless Jiang Zhou has some tricks up his sleeve, humph, what a bastard."

Jiang Dajian asked: "Jiang Zhou, is he the big guy in the village?"

"Who else could it be except him? You've been gone for ten years, and you still remember him?"

Jiang Dajian's eyes flickered as he said, "How could I not remember? That kid has been difficult to discipline since he was young. He didn't learn well. I once helped him by grabbing him and spanking him when he climbed up the roof to remove tiles. It's true that a child's character is determined by his age. I didn't expect that he would become even worse when he grew up. He even flirted with your woman?"

In his heart, Jiang Peiwei still regarded Yuan Yuan as his private property. He didn't think he had done anything wrong. He slapped his thigh and shouted, "Dad, you really hit the nail on the head!"

Jiang Dajian said, "Let's go and talk to Jiang Zhou. Then, we'll make them be sensible and give us back the land."

The father and son discussed it and, determined to succeed, headed straight for Yuan Yuan's residence.

……

"Jiang Zhou, why did you buy so many clothes?"

Yuan Yuan was surprised to see the neatly folded clothes spread out on the bed. She opened a piece of clothing and looked at the price tag, only to find it was too hot.

"You went out for so long just to buy clothes? This label is only sold in the shops in town, right?"

Jiang Zhou said very honestly, "Yes. I noticed that you always wear the same two pieces of clothes, and they have all turned white after washing. So I asked my mother's student, who works as a salesperson in a department store, to buy these clothes for me. Come and try them on to see if they fit you. The sister told me to keep the ones that fit you, and take the ones that don't fit and sell them out the back door."

Yuan Yuan was touched and amused, her heart was warm and her eyes were curved: "How can you always use the back door? You have to repay the debt of favor. You, why are you so good to me?"
