Chapter 685: List of Troublemakers

He Laiyun took the construction team workers to the village.

The villagers who came to help, led by Chen Guobiao, followed He Laiyun's team towards the bridge.

Others who need to go up the mountain to work go up the mountain, and those who need to go home to work go home.

They all went about doing their own things.

Chen Mingde walked slowly at the back.

Seeing that everyone had left, he turned around and ran back to the village entrance to find Chen Kaiming, saying with a smile: "Village Chief, I have something to talk to you about!"

Chen Hui and Chen Xiaoqiao stood on the other side.

Looking at the crowds of people heading towards the village.

Chen Hui asked in confusion: "Uncle Xiaoqiao, shouldn't the road be built from the entrance to the village? Why did they go to the big bridge first?"

"How would I know? I didn't repair it."

"I did hear my dad say that since we have enough money this time, we should divert the water from a few mountain springs and bring it directly to the river."

"It saves us from having a few more streams in the village when it rains."

"We should also clean up the steep places at the village entrance and bridgehead so that bicycles and tricycles can move more easily."

"It sounds like a huge project anyway."

As Chen Xiaoqiao was speaking, his eyes glanced at Chen Kaiming and Chen Mingde not far away.

He tapped Chen Hui's shoulder and pointed.

Chen Hui shook his head.

The two of them walked behind Chen Kaiming tacitly.

One on the left and one on the right, standing there expressionlessly.

"No, you. What are you doing!?"

Chen Mingde and Chen Kaiming had just exchanged a few words of greeting when they couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when they saw this situation.

"What are you two doing? Go away and play somewhere else!" Chen Kaiming waved his hand and said.

Chen Xiaoqiao looked at Chen Hui in confusion.

Aren't we supposed to be the bad guys?

Chen Hui thought for a moment, nodded, and took a few steps back.

Chen Xiaoqiao didn't understand what was going on, so he followed Chen Hui and retreated.

"Mingde, what do you want to talk to me about? Tell me!" Chen Kaiming said.

Chen Mingde rubbed his hands and looked at Chen Hui and Chen Xiaoqiao again.

"Don't worry about them. It's normal for young people to get a little crazy!"

"Is there anything wrong? If not, I'm going to help."

"If you really have nothing to do, come along. There's a lot of work to do next, and it's never too much to have a few people to help."

Chen Kaiming knew why Chen Mingde came, and he patiently chatted with him about random things.

Look at him still hesitating, as if he wants to do it but doesn't dare to.

Chen Kaiming didn't have the patience to talk nonsense with him anymore.

"Village Chief! It's like this!"

"I heard that this time the money was enough, so all the roads in the village, big and small, should be repaired, right?"

Chen Mingde rubbed his hands and asked with a smile.

Chen Kaiming nodded without saying much.

Seeing that Chen Kaiming did not express his opinion, Chen Mingde continued:

"It's the road in front of my house. It actually comes from the foundation of my house."

"Village Chief, you know this, right?"

"At that time, everyone went up the mountain from that way, and I couldn't block everyone's way all at once."

Chen Kaiming nodded, but still didn't respond.

Chen Xiaoqiao nudged Chen Hui with his elbow.

That piece of land is indeed Chen Mingde's family's land. If a cement road is built on it, it will be basically impossible to reclaim it in the future.

It was normal for Chen Mingde to ask questions, and he didn't say or do anything extreme.

Chen Hui shook his head, indicating that there was no need to go over now.

"Village Chief! You can't repair my land for nothing, right?"

"Does the village have any comment on this matter?"

Seeing that Chen Kaiming just nodded without saying anything, Chen Mingde finally became anxious.

"Why didn't you just ask directly earlier?!"

Chen Kaiming complained and said to Chen Mingde: "Of course I didn't ask for the land in front of your door for nothing, but I didn't tell you because I haven't built it there yet."

"The village currently has two options."

"First, the village bought the land from you, and we will pay you according to the price you paid to Chen Hui for the land."

"Second, you keep the land. We will build another road from Li Laoer's house. You can go that way when you go to work in the mountains in the future."

Chen Mingde looked dead after hearing what Chen Kaiming said.

"Village Chief, this won't do!"

"That price is too low. It's less than three or five dollars in total!"

"If I open the way from Li Laoer's house, I have to walk around my house to get home?!"

Chen Mingde reacted and objected excitedly.

“How come three or five dollars is not money?”

"They usually go that way. Have they ever given you a penny?"

"If he really doesn't want to, we can give the money to Li Lao Er. He will definitely agree!"

"This road cannot be built to your door yet. Go back and discuss it with your family and think about it carefully."

After Chen Kaiming finished speaking, he just said that he had other things to do in the village, and then he left.

Chen Mingde was unwilling to give in and wanted to talk more.

Chen Hui and Chen Xiaoqiao immediately stepped forward to stop Chen Mingde.

Chen Hui played the good guy and analyzed the pros and cons for him.

Chen Xiaoqiao played the good guy and when Chen Mingde was hesitant, he spoke harshly as if throwing down a burden.

If you don’t want this money, give it to Li Laoer.

Not only did Chen Mingde not get the three or five dollars, he also had to spend dozens of dollars to break down the wall and open a back door.

Otherwise I would have to walk around the house every day before going home.

When Chen Mingde came, he wanted a large sum, at least ten dollars.

Now that I think about it, three or five dollars is better than nothing.

A decision was made quickly, and we went to the village to ask Chen Kaiming for his signature.

"Chen Hui, the two of us really have the talent to be lackeys!"

Chen Xiaoqiao watched Chen Mingde walk away and raised his hand to Chen Hui.

Chen Hui raised his hand and patted it lightly.

I couldn't help but complain: "Can't you use some nice words?"

"We have dealt with Chen Mingde, who should we deal with next?" asked Chen Xiaoqiao.

"Chen Awang, Old Man Chen, and maybe his brothers Chen Da and Chen San, and Chen Guangyao," said Chen Hui.

"Chen Awang?!"

"What does it have to do with him? Didn't he just ask the village to build the house to his doorstep?"

"Originally, if there wasn't enough money, the small roads might not be repaired. Now that there is enough money, both the big and small roads will be repaired."

"Also, what's going on with Chen Guangyao? He wasn't there last time?"

Chen Xiaoqiao expressed doubts about Chen Hui's list.

"I observed the celestial phenomena last night, and suddenly I had the ability to predict the future."

"Just wait and see, it's guaranteed!"

Chen Hui smiled confidently.

He threw his hands aside and walked towards the village with his hands behind his back.

"Tsk! You are kidding me."

"If I believe you, I'm out of my mind!"

"No! Even if I have a bubble in my brain, I won't believe your nonsense!"

Chen Xiaoqiao said as he followed Chen Hui forward.

As soon as the two arrived at the village, they met Chen Mingde coming out.

"Dad! How much did Chen Mingde's land sell for?" Chen Xiaoqiao saw the man walking away and immediately walked into the office and asked.

"The money hasn't been paid yet, we've just agreed on the price."

"Ask Master He to go over with us in the afternoon to measure the exact amount of land." Chen Kaiming said.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone outside the door shouting, "Village Chief! Village Chief, are you there?"

"I gonna go see!"

Chen Xiaoqiao glanced at Chen Hui and strode out to take a look.
