How difficult
How difficult
But at this moment, the Big River Village was going to become her personal golden hen. The more money that village made, the more money she would be able to use to purchase weapons. Thus it went without saying that she was more than willing to take good care of Yu Dong and Big River Village.
The next hour Yu Dong returned to the village, and seven to eight sturdy mammies appeared in the village. Their tall build scared the villagers but Yu Dong stopped them all and then said, " They are here to protect us from any harm. Make sure that you are respectful towards them and don't do anything that will make our village look bad, all right?"
Ever since the villagers witnessed Yu Dong's crisp actions of cancelling the contracts they knew that they couldn't just play it by ear when it came to listening to Yu Dong's orders.
" Don't worry, Sister Dong. We all saw what happened this morning, we will certainly not do anything to cause trouble," one of the villagers spoke, now that Yu Dong was so rich and influential only fools who did not know better would go against her.
The other villagers also chimed up, seeing that they were willing to be cooperative, Yu Dong smiled. She was not someone who would suddenly start acting tyrannically just because she had a little money in her pockets, she looked at the villagers and then said in a calm voice, " Since I and my family will be troubling you all for a little while, you can take three kg extra fertilizer."
Since she was troubling others then it was only necessary for Yu Dong to also hand them some benefits lest they say that she was acting arrogant and was treating the villagers as if they were her servants.
When the villagers heard that Yu Dong had given them extra fertilizer, they cheered up. Ever since their in-laws and relatives found out that Yu Dong was helping them grow some really good vegetables, they have been clamouring to move to the Big River Village. But was buying a house and land something that could be done just because one wanted to?
The villagers could only refuse as they did not have the money to help them but that did not stop their relatives from asking for the seeds. They only said that if they had such good things then it should be naturally shared by all, how could this be done? The villagers of the Big River Village have all seen how the seeds of those who betrayed and backstabbed Yu Dong turned bad.
Though they did not know whether or not this matter had to do something with Yu Dong, they all were simple people. They believed that Yu Dong was blessed by the heavens which was why her life was getting better and if they tried to betray her then they would be punished by the heavens. Thus they all treated Yu Dong's words as heavenly edicts. No matter what their relatives said to them and no matter how they tried to coax her, they didn't listen to their unreasonable request to send the seeds and simply refused.
This caused them to be scolded by their relatives who cursed them for being heartless after getting to know someone rich. Now that Yu Dong was handing them extra fertilizer they could send it to their relatives. Even if their vegetables might not be as good as theirs, their relatives will have a much better time as their vegetables will be better than the rest.
The villagers who were originally a bit dissatisfied immediately felt relieved. They thought that they were at a disadvantage but now that the matter had been resolved like that they did not say anything.
Seeing that the villagers did not want to say anything anymore, Yu Dong nodded and returned to her home.
People were like this, as long as they had some small benefits to be shared along with the trouble they were taking, they wouldn't dare to make a fuss. This was why Yu Dong deliberately handed them some small benefits, who knew how long this matter was going to drag on it was better to take care of any trouble before it arose.
" Dong Dong!" Shen Li stood up from the couch with his hand under his pregnant belly he immediately rushed out of the house, and behind him, Chen Mi and Ye Liu also rushed out. Fang Chi was grinding the dried chillies in the courtyard with Xiao Hua to make chilli oil, so when the two of them saw Yu Dong return, the two of them stopped their tasks in hand and strode towards Yu Dong.
Even Grandma Yu who was puffing the cigar immediately dropped it and walked towards her granddaughter. Though her waist was still hurting with Yu Dong's extreme care she could not leave her bed.
" Are you all right?"
" Did that bad woman do something?"
" What happened? Did you agree with her request before we sent Magistrate Li?"
One question after another popped up causing Yu Dong to be a bit speechless but even so she did not show any impatience as she knew that her husbands was only worried about her.
She waited for them to stop speaking before she raised her hand and then said, " As you can see I am fine and no…nothing happened though Wang Shi was fast, you all were even faster."
Yu Dong raised her hand and then rubbed Shen Li's head when she saw that he looked quite worried. Ever since he got pregnant, his emotions were all over the place and he only cared about Yu Dong. As long as she was next to him, he would be fine, "Because of you all, I and Marquis Qiao were able to leave without any trouble."
