Druid's Country Retirement

Chapter 223 Script
After the lightning and thunder, the torrential rain began to fall like crazy. Suddenly, a hole seemed to be opened between the sky and the earth.

The torrential rain poured down from the sky, covering Caogou Village in a rain curtain, and the raindrops hit the roof tiles, making a crackling sound.

The villagers who have lived in the mountains for generations have long been used to this, and the coming of the rainy season indicates that they can relax in the next two months.

A house with lights on.

Li Daquan and the other three village slippers obsequiously accompanied Fatty Ma to drink.

"Boss, more than 20 villagers have come to register with me today, and there are more than 40 villagers who want to plant land for us."

The food and wine on the table seemed to be the leftovers from the banquet at Li Hongbing's house yesterday. Fatty Ma lost his appetite in an instant, so he took a sip from the wine glass. The spicy taste and choking flavor nearly sent Fatty Ma away.

In order to save face for Li Da, he could only pinch his nose and swallow the inferior liquor.

"The rest of the land, haven't you rented it back yet?"

Li Daquan nodded and bowed, "The rest are good relations with Li Hongbing. I have asked someone to reason and promise to rent the land of those households, so that Li Hongbing will not be able to get any land. It is difficult to handle the land of the village committee! "

"You don't have to worry about this, I've already discussed it with Village Chief Li, and the result will be out tomorrow." Fatty Ma smiled smugly.

The queen who took down Li Hongbing took the donation route. Although the method is old-fashioned, it works. It is impossible for village head Li to turn a blind eye to the fact that she promised to donate so much infrastructure.

Besides, what does Li Hongbing's earning money have to do with the village committee? Only political achievements are the heart and soul of village chief Li.

It's a pity that Li Hongbing is smart because he is smart, but he doesn't understand the world.

This time, as long as 80% of the land in Caogou Village can be obtained, Li Hongbing cannot be chased too hard, leaving him a way to escape.

If the last road is blocked, then he will have to fight desperately, and in the end, both sides will be hurt. He is a porcelain, so it is not worthwhile.

Moreover, Li Hongbing had a fateful friendship with Xu Dalang. Although Xu Dalang was drunk all day long, the Xu Group behind him was a big Buddha.

To annoy Li Hongbing, the big deal is to walk away, and to annoy Xu Dalang is not so easy to resolve.

From now on, each side of the road will go towards the sky, and no one will provoke anyone.

After setting the tone for the rest, Fatty Ma proudly picked up the wine glass and took a sip, but forgot that the glass contained low-quality liquor, and sprayed Li Daquan all over his face with the hard-to-drink wine.

"Next time, change to the rice wine made in your village. This wine is rubbish. Where can I stay at night?"

Li Daquan didn't care to wipe off the drink on his face, nodded and got up and said, "You live in the master bedroom, I have tidied everything up, the bedding has never been used, it is absolutely clean."

"Ok!"

After a day of tossing, Fatty Ma was also sleepy, and when he was about to enter the room, there was thunder and rain outside the window.

"Such heavy rain won't wash away the fields?"

Li Daquan quickly explained, "No, no, this thunderstorm comes and goes quickly."

Whoa whoa!
The punctual chirping of the great white cockatoo echoed over the old house.

After the heavy rain last night, the meadow seemed to have been washed, it was greener, and the air was much fresher, mixed with the fragrance of the soil.

It's just that the stream and river surged, and the mountain torrent poured down from Yuanbao Mountain and merged into the rushing river, forcibly doubling the ten-meter-wide river channel.

After getting up, Li Hongbing breathed the fresh air, walked under the old oak tree, raised his head and shouted to the tree house.

"Anna, get up and practice."

"understood!"

Anna lazily responded from the mushroom tree house, and after a while, Xiao Bai ran down the stairs of the tree house, followed by five honey dogs that were elusive.

Followed by the two owl brothers, because of their short legs, when they went down the stairs, they jumped down with Kazilan's big eyes open, jumped in the air, rolled down the stairs, and fell to the ground shaking fat body, with a gurgling sound from his mouth.

To Li Hongbing, those cooing noises were uncivilized expressions.

"You two are enough, you have wings but you can't fly, and you blame the stairs for being too high."

Cuckoo!
The eagle owl brothers ignored Li Hongbing's reminder, dragging their wings on the ground, bouncing and running towards the chicken coop.

When Anna appeared, she held the princess and the cub in her arms.

Hey!
As soon as Xiong Cub saw Li Hongbing, he twisted his body in Anna's arms.

Li Hongbing took the princess, he was too lazy to talk to the cub and let out a jealous sound, and stretched out his hand to scratch Anna's hair like a chicken coop a few times.

"You sleep when you sleep, why did you call them all up?"

"There was thunder yesterday, people are afraid, you sleep with Aunt Xing'er, don't want Anna anymore." Anna puffed up her face and turned back angrily.

Forehead!
Girls grow up and learn to talk back.

Last night after drinking, I went back to the old house. I was so excited that I gave Shan Xing a physical examination and forgot about my daughter.

Li Hongbing was embarrassed.

However, the muddy boy carrying a hoe came back from the vegetable field and helped Li Hongbing out of the siege.

The silly boy smiled honestly, "It rained heavily last night, and the ditch was cleared. Grandpa, what are you growing in the vegetable field?"

Yup!

The vegetable field was planed again by three pickles, and then Sun Qiang refilled the soil from the outside, and now it is still bare.

Li Hongbing put the princess back into Anna's arms under the pretext of planting vegetables, and took the silly boy to the warehouse to get the seeds.

"Hmph! Bad dad!" Anna stomped her feet angrily.

When backfilling the soil in the vegetable field, Sun Qiang specially asked the workers to make underground drainage pipes in the vegetable basement. The function is to prevent the vegetable garden from being waterlogged during the rainy season and to quickly drain water.

Li Hongbing and Shawa formed the vegetable field into organized ridges, sprinkled seeds on each ridge, and dug out the stones from the soil to the edge of the field ridge.

Ahh! !
The temperature in the forest area fluctuated greatly, especially after the rain, the temperature dropped sharply. Xu Dalang's face turned pale from the cold, and he came to the vegetable field in his unlined clothes, huddled up, and couldn't stop sneezing.

"Brother, hurry up and find me some clothes, it's freezing to death!"

"It's not cold to work in the fields." Li Hongbing looked at Brother Dalang contemptuously, threw the hoe aside, and walked into the rice field with bare feet, "Xing'er, Xing'er."

"What's wrong!" Shan Xing came out of the kitchen.

"Find some clothes for Brother Dalang, he's going to freeze like a dog, old clothes will do." Li Hongbing said teasingly, and Xu Dalang kept rolling his eyes in return.

"Okay!" Shan Xing covered her mouth and snickered, turned around and walked into the bedroom of the main room, and took out a coat, "Brother Dalang, these are the clothes I just made for Brother Hongbing, you two are about the same size, change them quickly try!"

"Sister Xing'er, you are my great benefactor." Xu Dalang hurriedly took the clothes and changed them, the coolness was blocked out, and he became much warmer immediately.

suddenly.

The mobile phone in the coat hanging on the clothes rail in the eaves rang.

Li Hongbing left a string of mud prints on the rice field with his foot film, picked up his mobile phone, and the phone number was the village committee.

Connected and chatted for a while and hung up.

"Who called?" Xu Dalang looked gossip, because the grandson's phone has always been set to reject incoming calls, but anyone who can get through to his phone shows that something is very important.

"You have the potential to be a small village trumpet." Li Hongbing glanced at him, "The village committee called me to change the contract."

Change the contract?
Xu Dalang frowned.

He knew about the land grab by Fatty Ma, and Li Hongbing made it clear that he didn't care, so he couldn't get involved because he still had the village committee's land in his hand.

But early in the morning, the village committee called Li Hongbing to change the contract. Could it be that Fatty Ma also snatched the land from the village committee.

Things went too far.

Instead of looking at the face of the monk, look at the face of the Buddha, and treat me, Young Master Xu, as air.

"Brother, I'll go over to join in the fun."

Li Hongbing turned his head and saw the hostility between Xu Dalang's eyebrows, so he hurriedly took the vaccination in advance, so that he would not spoil his plan.

Pretending to be a loser in the competition, he said freely.

"You can go, don't interfere. Yesterday the farming villagers turned to Fatty Ma. It's useless for me to keep that piece of land. I plan to divide half of it out to relieve some pressure."

"I know." Xu Dalang frowned even tighter.

Caogou Village Village Committee.

In the village chief's office, Fatty Ma sat with his legs crossed in Li Huaizhong's chair, and Li Daquan and the other four villagers stood behind him like dogs.

Li Daquan approached Fatty Ma's ear with an excited face.

"Boss, Da Kui, Tie Zhu, and Fu Sheng also signed the contract early this morning. Now Li Hongbing only has the village committee's contracted land in his hands. As long as he takes the village committee's contracted land back, Li Hongbing will even Not even a root hair can grow."

"Shut up, you're so frizzy." Fatty Ma took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and the other three dogs hurriedly took out lighters, but Liu Changjun took the lead.

Fatty Ma glanced at Liu Changjun appreciatively, lit his cigarette, took a leisurely puff, and exhaled the smoke.

"Remember, keep a line of life, so that we can meet each other in the future. I don't plan to take all the land contracted by the village committee. At least half of it will be reserved for Li Hongbing. A rabbit will bite when it is anxious, not to mention that I am porcelain, so there is no need Head-to-head with a crock."

When these words were spoken, the four village slippers would fart wildly regardless of whether they understood or not.

"The boss's words are nice, just like storytelling."

"The boss has a kind heart like thunder."

"The boss is amazing. Listening to Jun's words is better than killing pigs for ten years."

"Boss... um... awesome."

……

Fatty Ma frowned, if it wasn't for the fact that he didn't have anyone available around him, he wouldn't be too lazy to lower his self-worth and hang out with these four illiterate people.

outside the office.

Li Huaizhong and accountant Chunsheng stood at the gate of the village committee, smoking and chatting, waiting for Li Hongbing to appear.

Drinking last night, Chunsheng's family had something to do and didn't attend. I didn't know that Li Hongbing had already discussed the script with the village head in private.

Early this morning, Li Huaizhong called the village committee to revise the contract. This surprised Chunsheng, but he also complained for Li Hongbing.

"Village chief, isn't it unethical for us to do this? Uncle Hongbing has already suffered a loss, and the village committee is going to add insult to injury."

Li Huaizhong glared at him and threw away the cigarette butt.

"You know the ball, the boss contributes money and effort, if we don't express it, what if we quit, and report to the town at the end of the year, how can we improve?"

"This..." Chunsheng paused.

Having said that, it is not fair to Uncle Hongbing to kill the donkey, after all, there is still a principle of first come first come first.

Da da da!
Li Hongbing appeared riding a black wind, followed by Xu Dalang riding a red horse.

Originally, they were going to drive a three-wheeled motorcycle, but Xu Dalang couldn't help being sticky. In the end, the two of them each rode a horse and went out.

"Uncle Huaizhong, I'm not late!" Li Hongbing laughed and got off his horse.

"It's not too late, we just arrived too, Boss Xu." Li Huaizhong stepped forward and took the time to say hello to Xu Dalang. After the greetings, he glanced at the office and said in a low voice, "That guy came early."

Putting the horse in the yard of the village committee, Li Hongbing followed Li Huaizhong into the office.

"Doctor Li, you're here." Fatty Ma didn't get up when he saw Li Hongbing, and sat firmly on the chair.

Li Hongbing smiled, and turned to the side, showing Xu Dalang with a cold face.

Xu Dalang is not used to Fatty Ma, he sarcastically smiled when he showed up.

"Mr. Ma is so majestic! I don't know, I thought it was Ma Baoan."

Ma Baoan is Fatty Ma's father, Xu and Ma are not at the same level, they met several times at commercial receptions, and Ma Baoan had to offer a toast to Xu Dalang whenever he saw him.

It's just that everyone is a friend in the same group, usually laughing and joking with each other, and some people forget their identities after a long time.

Whoa!

Fatty Ma was so frightened that he quickly stood up, "Brother Xu, let's see what you said."

snort!
Xu Dalang didn't look at him at all, he went straight to the desk, dragged the chair Fatty Ma had just sat on to the side, and sat down with his arms crossed in front of his chest.

"I'm just an audience today. You can talk as you like. If you can't agree, don't blame me for flipping the table."

Fatty Ma and Li Hongbing smiled wryly at the same time, and muttered to themselves.

It's all about this.

What else can I do?
Li Huaizhong was the one who benefited from the three parties. He didn't know Xu Dalang's status in Mingzhu City, seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, he hurriedly led Chunsheng to the center.

Start talking according to the script agreed upon by the two.

"This red soldier, the village committee has decided to take back the 100 mu of contracted land on the east slope. The contract money you paid in advance will be used as the contract fee for the remaining 60 mu of land on the north slope. What do you think?"

Li Hongbing immediately shook his head in disagreement.

"No, I signed a contract with the village committee. I don't just accept it. Everything must be done according to the contract."

When Fatty Ma saw this, he was about to speak, but when he saw Xu Dalang staring at him fiercely, he felt a chill in his heart, he obediently shut his mouth, and cursed secretly.

Ma De, if he knew that First Young Master Xu would come forward, he would not intervene in the village committee's troubled waters.

Li Huaizhong heard Li Hongbing's refusal, and immediately entered the next step of crying poor.

"Red Soldier, Uncle knows that this is unethical, but there is nothing you can do about it. Boss Ma wants to repair the infirmary, the road, the garbage pond, the toilet, and the village committee for our village. You can't just think about yourself. Progress, let the village not progress!"

Li Hongbing stiffened his neck.

"I can also pay for these things to be repaired. I have no objection to the improvement of the village, but I can't make up the difference from me."

Li Huaizhong reluctantly took a stack of contracts from Chunsheng and put them on the table.

"It's late, Boss Ma signed the donation agreement yesterday, you can't lose money and pay again!"

"In this way, everyone will take a step back, and each of you will get half of the 160 mu of contracted land.

"Besides, what can you do if all the contracted land is given to you? Everyone in the village is going to plant land for Boss Ma. You can't let Shanxing and Shawa plant more than 100 mu of land!"

As the voice fell, the office fell into silence.

Li Hongbing's complexion became more and more ugly, his white face was covered with blue veins, his eyes gleamed with grief and helplessness, and finally he let go of his clenched fists, his whole body seemed to be discouraged.

"I agree to amend the contract, bring it!"

With a tangled expression, Chunsheng took out a new contract and spread it out on the desk.

Li Hongbing grabbed the pen and signed his name with a swipe.

He sneered at the fat man, "Congratulations, you have won!"

After finishing speaking, he ignored everyone in the room and rushed out of the village committee office alone.

Xu Dalang stood up with a sneer, and followed behind Li Hongbing. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around, raised his hand and tapped Fatty Ma twice with his fingers.

"Mr. Ma, the green mountains will not change, and the water will flow forever."
