Chapter 37 Forced to Stand in Line
Li Chen's home!
Li Chen was sitting at home at this time. He believed that there would always be someone in the village willing to give it a try!
As Li Chen expected, Li Shanfu and others came after some persuasion.
Zhang Bo also brought his own things and followed Li Shanfu.
Li Chen immediately stood up to greet him!
Li Beiwu sat quietly on the side. As long as there was food in his mouth, there was no problem.
"Li Chen, they all said that you were buying. Is it true?"
Zhang Bo is also an old man in the village. He is usually a very good person and often helps everyone. When he stood up, everyone took him as the backbone.
"Yes!" Li Chen nodded and moved out the few chairs in the house.
Everyone sat down under the eaves in turn!
Seeing that Li Chen admitted so readily, these uncles in the village still didn't dare to believe it.
Li Chen's current situation is not good, which everyone knows.
In addition, he also owed usury.
This made everyone think more!
Li Chen naturally knew their thoughts and concerns, and said, "No matter how much you bring, I will take it!"
"And you will pay immediately on the spot. I will never cheat you. Please rest assured."
"What are you worried about?"
Just after Li Chen finished speaking, the village chief Li Wende came with a large group of people.
Li Chen stood up again, and saw that the village chief Li Wende's face was not very good.
He glared at Li Chen and scolded: "You can't protect yourself now, why are you still collecting ginseng? Don't you want to pay back the loan sharks? Is your grandfather's disease incurable?"
Although the village chief's tone was very serious and blaming, Li Chen's heart was warm.
In the outside world, he tasted all kinds of suffering!
But this mountain corner that he once despised still has so many people who care about him.
"I'm not saying anything bad about you, kid Chen, but you can't do this now."
"That's right, do you think that if you give everyone your last bit of money in various ways, everyone will really be better off?"
"If you really feel guilty and want to do something for your parents, then solve your own problems first, and then help the village."
The elders in the village also educated him.
The tone was very aggressive and the words were very unpleasant.
But Li Chen felt warm in his heart.
There are many people in the village who don't like him, but there are also many people who don't care about his parents' mistakes.
These people look fierce, but without exception, they are all worried about him, hoping that he will not lose heart and do stupid things.
Li Chen, who has experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature, was very moved.
Li Chen let them preach and didn't get angry.
After these old men had almost vented their anger, Li Chen smiled and said, "Grandpa Village Chief, and all the uncles, Li Chen really appreciates your concern for me."
"But today's matter is also a decision I made after careful consideration."
"Brother Shanfu, Brother Peng and others are also here. If I lie to you, there is no need!"
Li Chen winked at Li Shanfu and the others, and the latter immediately took out the recent payment records.
"Look, if I really have no money, how could I buy so much? Right?" Li Chen said solemnly: "Moreover, the person I contacted this time is still a friend of Mr. Zhao Dezhu, and he has already taken away a batch in advance, so I really didn't give up this time, nor did I try my best to repay this guilt before the disaster came."
The faces of Li Wende, Zhang Bo and others became uncertain.
After all, the facts are right in front of us.
"Li Chen, are you really rich?"
"Yes!" Li Chen said: "Of course, I am not afraid to tell you that I will sell in large quantities, so the price will definitely be higher. After all, the quality of my ginseng is pretty good, so you can make some money, and I can make some too!"
Everyone present was silent.
People's hearts are complicated.
It would be a lie to say that they really have no complaints against Li Chen.
It's just that they are all relatively rational.
And Li Chen just said such insider words, which still touched everyone's heart.
The market is visible. After all, everyone's artificial ginseng is not wild, so it can only be sold for more than 200 yuan.
Li Chen gave a price of 300 yuan per kilogram, which is definitely a huge profit and favor.
As for the good quality of Li Chen's ginseng, they are not surprised and did not ask.
Whose family doesn't have some secrets?
Li Chen's family is now in decline, but when his parents were alive, they were also the best.
It's normal to have some technical means!
Now that Li Chen is open and honest, everyone is naturally relieved.
Li Wende couldn't help asking again: "What about the loan sharks..."
"I've prepared the loan shark money, don't worry!" Li Chen said with a smile.
Everyone was relieved when they heard Li Chen say that.
Although no one had ever been exposed to loan sharks, the reputation of loan sharks was really too bad, and it could be said that it was so bad that people were afraid of it.
I don't know how many people were ruined by loan sharks.
Li Chen's family was already miserable enough. If it was dragged down by loan sharks now, then this family would really be ruined.
"If everyone trusts me, as long as the quality is acceptable and meets the standards, I will charge 300 yuan per catty. What do you think? Of course, if you still want to keep it, I have no objection." Li Chen said at last.
But everyone was obviously still a little hesitant. It was impossible to say that they really had no concerns.
"Village Chief, Village Chief, this is bad!"
Li Wende asked: "What's wrong?"
"There is word from Zhou Jiang that now he can purchase all the medicinal materials in the village!"
"What?" Many people in the village couldn't help but become restless.
Li Wende narrowed his eyes and said, "What's the price?"
"one hundred!"
People who were surprised just now were speechless.
"Why doesn't his surname Zhou die?"
"How dare he accept a hundred yuan a pound? Does he really regard himself as someone else's dog?"
"Shh, keep your voice down!"
"How can he, surnamed Zhou, kill me? We have worked hard for so long, and he just wants to unite with outsiders to bully the village. Now he wants to take advantage of it. It is simply too much!"
"that is!"
"This is simply too much, Chenwazi. Don't say anything. We have given you all our things. You don't need to feel guilty to give us a high price. As long as we don't let us lose, we will give you whatever you want!"
These people were furious when they heard what Zhou Jiang had done.
He is really not a thing, taking advantage of the fact that the people in the village are having a hard time, and actually taking advantage of it to rob them.
This is simply not what people should do.
"Many people in the village have gone to the Zhou family!" The person who reported the news just now said again: "Zhou Jiang said that they only accept friends of the Zhou family. Now they can give one hundred, but in the future they may not have one hundred! I hope that the people in the village will Everyone thinks carefully before making a decision.”
When Li Wende heard this, he couldn't help but said angrily: "What does this bastard want to do?"
When Li Chen heard this, he already understood.
What Zhou Jiang’s family wants to do is ready to come out!
This is forcing the people in the village to take sides!
Unlike this group of people who are friendly to Li Chen, most people in the village remain neutral.
Those who oppose Li Chen are all from Zhoujiawan!
This group of people will definitely not see Li Chen having an easy time, and Zhou Jiang is using this method to force people from the neutral camp.
If you don't side with me, Zhou Jiang, you will be my enemy, Zhou Jiang.
Don’t even think about selling the things in the village now, and you can’t sell them!
But if you side with me, Zhou Jiang, then everything will be easy to talk about. I will collect your things now.
What is certain is that Zhou Jiang's move will immediately make countless people surrender.
Although they do not dislike Li Chen, they will not support Li Chen. More importantly, the family needs to eat and live.
If you don’t sell it to Li Chen now, what if you really can’t sell it at all in the future?
