Early the next morning.

Lei Qian and Mu Cidian went to the village of the Lei family.

Just as they stepped into the village.

That so-called Big Brother Wu Wensheng was waiting there. Seeing Lei Qian’s car coming in, he hurried forward to meet them.

Mu Cidian and Lei Qian got off the car.

Wu Wensheng, brimming with excitement, took hold of Mu Cidian’s hand, “Xiao Mu, I really owe you, now that Ergou finally admitted to borrowing my money, I thought I had really lost all 40,000. I really have to thank you today.”

Mu Cidian laughed a little, “Mr. Wu, you are too kind, it was actually just a minor effort.”

“Only a well-educated person like Xiao Mu could come up with such an idea, I definitely couldn’t.”

“I couldn’t either.” Lei Qian hurriedly chimed in, “Mu Cidian, how did you come up with this method to force Wang Ergou to admit that he had borrowed money from Big Brother Wu?”

Lei Qian was genuinely impressed.

Because Wu Wensheng had neither a witness nor a note of debt, and Wang Ergou stubbornly insisted that he didn’t borrow any money. Taking it to court would serve no purpose, so Mu Cidian set a trap. He asked Wu Wensheng to go for a drink with Wang Ergou one night without discussing the money owed. They just chatted, and then took a walk by the river in the village. He suggested that Wu Wensheng should disappear the next day, and then on the fourth day, which was yesterday, he instructed his wife to report him missing to the police, saying that Wu Wensheng was unaccounted for. Then the police would naturally investigate, and in order to clear himself, Wang Ergou would, under normal circumstances, tell the truth, and admit that he wouldn’t have killed Wu Wensheng over a debt of 40,000 yuan.

So, Wang Ergou personally admitted to the police that there was a borrowing fact, and Wu Wensheng could be dealt with merely a police warning because of the circumstances. This way, the situation about Wang Ergou refusing to admit the debt could be handled appropriately.

Mu Cidian smiled faintly, “It just came to me.”

“I thought you were too clever when we were in school, but now I really think you’re too clever.” Lei Qian sincerely said.

Mu Cidian just smiled.

A few of them entered Wu Wensheng’s house together.

Lunch was already prepared in the house. It was very rich. In addition to inviting Mu Cidian, the Lei couple had also come.

The two families and Mu Cidian were sitting together at a square table.

“Xiao Mu, I toast you. Without you, I would have lost these 40,000 yuan! I can’t thank you enough.” Wu Wensheng said enthusiastically.

“I can’t drink. My stomach isn’t very good.”

“What’s wrong with your stomach? You are too thin.” Wu Wensheng showed concern.

“I underwent gastric perforation surgery a few years ago. The recovery was not very good after the operation, so I vomit easily if I eat too much and tend to eat less.” Mu Cidian didn’t hide anything.

“You should still try to eat more. Look how thin you are.”

“Hmm.” Mu Cidian nodded.

He also wanted to improve his physical condition.

This would probably take time, a long time.

Perhaps things would be better once he left Yanshang Country.

“No alcohol, then let me toast you with tea.”

“You really don’t have to be so polite.” Mu Cidian politely declined.

“No, no, no, it’s necessary…” Wu Wensheng was still incredibly enthusiastic.

Mu Cidian said, “If you really want to thank me, I do have an impolite request.”

“Go ahead, whatever you ask, I will agree.”

“Then I won’t be polite.” Mu Cidian put down his chopsticks and said seriously, “The Xin Group plans to build an ecological park in the village of the Lei Family. I understand everyone’s worries, fearing that you will be deceived again, but now I can guarantee with my personal integrity that the Xin Group values its reputation and image very much, and it will not do anything that harms its own interests, including any controversy, so the Xin Group will not play any tricks.”

Wu Wensheng fell silent.

This matter was not something he could decide on.

“This is the cooperation scheme of the Xin Group. It does not require any investment from the villagers. For the construction of the ecological park, besides the land requisition and lease fees, the Xin Group will offer a 5% share of the profit to the villagers. In addition, it will cover all the losses that you have suffered because of the previous project.”

“Really?” Wu Wensheng found it hard to believe.

Such good things don’t just fall from the sky.

“It’s true.” Mu Cidian nodded.

“How can I find this so unbelievable! Where in the world is there such a good thing!” Lei Qiang was the one who spoke up.

“Uncle Lei, it’s a good thing for you, but for the Consortium Group, it’s an even better thing. The profit they can make from this piece of land is something you can’t even imagine, so what they’re taking out is just a tiny part.”

Lei Qiang did not say anything.

In fact, Lei Qian had to persuade her father behind the scenes for a long time before he reluctantly agreed not to incite the villagers to resist, but he did not think about helping either.

“I still hope you can trust me. I know I’m just an outsider and I can’t make any guarantees, but I can provide you with my work address and home address. If you are deceived, you can ask the police to come to these places and get me arrested.”

“That won’t be necessary…” Seeing the sincerity in Mu Cidian’s words, Wu Wensheng was somewhat moved, turned to Lei Qiang and said, “Uncle Lei, I don’t think he’s a swindler.”

“Would a swindler write the word ‘swindler’ on his face?”

Wu Wensheng was not very happy with this retort and suddenly said very determinedly, “Anyway, I want to help Xiao Mu.”

Lei Qiang looked at Wu Wensheng.

“You’re his future father-in-law and you’re not supporting him, what kind of father-in-law are you?” Wu Wensheng shouted.

On hearing this, Lei Qian’s face reddened.

Lei Qiang said, “Don’t talk nonsense, they are just friends.”

“Uncle Lei, you’re too rigid in your thinking. Can’t a friendship develop into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship? Anyway, I think Sister Lei likes Mu.”

Lei Qian’s face grew even redder, “Brother Wu, stop talking.”

“Alright, alright, I won’t say anything anymore.” Wu Wensheng said with a chuckle, seeing Lei Qian was extremely embarrassed.

Mu Cidian didn’t join in on this topic, he changed the subject, “Uncle Lei, I can’t guarantee the absolute trustworthiness of other groups, but I can guarantee a hundred percent for the Xin Group.”

“How can you assure that?” Lei Qiang still had his reservations.

“Xin Zaozao of Xin Group is a very kind person, she will not do anything harmful.” Mu Cidian stressed each word.

Lei Qian turned to look at Mu Cidian.

She slowly lowered her gaze.

Mu Cidian looked resolute, Lei Qiang was somewhat hesitant.

Wu Wensheng on the side was getting anxious, “Uncle Lei, don’t drag this on, just listen to Mu. I think Mu is a good guy. All these years our Lei Family Village has not been developing, but the neighboring village, with a worse geographical position than ours, has been thriving, I can’t stand it!”

At this moment Lei Qiang also thought of the arrogant village chief next door who jeered at him.

He was holding back a grievance. After thinking for a while, he said, “Alright, I will try to persuade the villagers.”

Mu Cidian secretly gave a sigh of relief.

He picked up the difference, “Uncle Lei, I want to thank you with tea instead of wine.”

“Mu Cidian, if you play any trick, even if it takes all my old bones, I will fight with you to the end!”

“Uncle Lei, don’t worry.”

“Alright.” Lei Qiang didn’t waste words, and drank with Mu Cidian.

Mu Cidian left with Lei Qian after dinner in the afternoon.

Lei Qian drove as Mu Cidian had a night shift to work.

The way was rather silent.

Suppressing her feelings, Lei Qian finally broke the silence, “Mu Cidian, do you still like Xin Zaozao?”

Mu Cidian currently sat in the passenger seat, looking at the highway outside the window.

Mu Cidian turned back.

Lei Qian looked somewhat nervous.

Mu Cidian said, “Yes.”

It felt like a piercing pain in Lei Qian’s heart, her eyes red instantly.

Suppressing her emotions, she said, “Oh. But she and Song Lifei…”

“I know.” Mu Cidian seemed very calm.

Lei Qian wanted to say something but eventually held her tongue.

They did not speak anymore after that.

After dropping Mu Cidian at his home in Jin City, Lei Qian drove away.

Mu Cidian watched Lei Qian’s retreating figure.

He just didn’t want to hold anyone back.

He picked up his phone and called Xin Zaozao.

The call connected, “Mu Cidian.”

“It’s pretty much settled, you should send someone over to follow up as soon as possible.”

“I see.” Xin Zaozao said coldly on the other end, adding, “Once the contract is signed, I will transfer the money to you. You can give me your account information now.”

“Alright.”

With that, they both hung up.

Mu Cidian sent his bank details to Xin Zaozao.

He was very clear that with Xin Zaozao’s capability, the development of the eco-park was basically successful.

He thought to himself.

After this, they should have no further contacts!
