I became famous in the entertainment industry by burning incense

Chapter 451 The Qi family is finished
Qi Zhan thought he had figured out Ye Weijie's thoughts.

Previously, Qi Hong ordered a tractor to repair the pond, but was stopped by Ye Weijie, who also accused the Qi family of moving the pond without prior notice and of not taking other villagers in Chitang Village into consideration.

This incident caused a big stir, and even the village chief asked about it again and again, and was very dissatisfied with them.

In the end, it was Dad who had to step in personally and sacrifice his old face to calm the situation.

Qi Zhihong has said privately more than once that others saw that he was an old man and did not want to get entangled, so they spent 100,000 yuan to settle the matter privately.

If he wasn't an old man, the young man Ye Weijie probably wouldn't let it go.

But to Qi Zhan's ears, the focus was not on the "old man" but on the 100,000 yuan.

No matter what, isn't it all about money?
As long as the money is in place, everything will be fine. Any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem.

If the problem cannot be solved, it means that the money given is not enough.

So when things came to a stalemate and no one could convince anyone else, Qi Zhan decisively resorted to spending money.

Ye Weijie was a little confused when he suddenly brought up the topic of money.

"No, it has nothing to do with money. Why are you talking about money for no reason? You don't give me money, I give you money!"

Ye Weijie tried to sort out his thoughts: "This pond in your house is also a pond passed down from generation to generation in the village. The crew filmed the Pond Village to capture the ancient charm of the village.

We need to photograph as many ponds as there were in the past. This is the meaning of inheritance and continuation, and it can also pay tribute to and remember history."

Qi Zhan was immersed in his own thoughts and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Refused?
That means the money given is not enough.

So he said, "Director Ye, I will pay you double the amount you want to pay us."

Ye Weijie was confused: "Do you understand what I said? I gave you money, and the crew wants to borrow the pond in your villa."

When most people hear about being offered money to borrow, they either sit down and negotiate the price, or they refuse outright, refusing to lend the money.

The Qi family is really interesting. They don't talk about money with him, but give him money instead.

Who wants to borrow whom?
Qi Zhan was already a little impatient and said, "Two hundred thousand. I'll give you another two hundred thousand. Do you think that's okay?"

As soon as Ye Weijie shook his head, Qi Zhan interrupted what he was about to say, raised his eyebrows and spoke in a high-pitched voice, with a very dissatisfied look on his face:
"Three hundred thousand. I can only give you three hundred thousand at most. No more. Director Ye, you should be content with what you have!"

Ye Weijie was speechless, and after a long while he managed to utter: "You are a piece of rotten wood, I don't want to communicate with you anymore."

Qi Zhan's brows were knitted together as if he could pinch a fly to death.

Ye Weijie shook his hands, picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea, then said: "Where is your father? You can't make the decision on this matter. Your father has to come."

Qi Zhan's frown suddenly relaxed, thinking that Ye Weijie had agreed, and he quickly said:

"I have the final say. It's just a matter of giving money. I have five... Never mind. I'll raise the price to five hundred thousand. From now on, don't come to our house until the end of filming."

Ye Weijie looked at him speechlessly, unable to stop complaining in his heart.

What a rotten piece of wood! What a rotten piece of wood!

Damn, this is even more proof that there’s something wrong with the Qi family’s pond!
It's not just that he refused to allow the crew to film, the problem is that he had been in there for so long and the people from the Qi family refused to even let him see him.

If he had not secretly taken aerial photos with an airplane before, he would not have known what the condition of the Qi family's pond was.

Ye Weijie sighed and said, "It's not that I don't trust you, but the old man must know about this matter. Whether the crew wants to borrow your pond for filming, or your family wants to donate another 500,000 yuan to charity, the old man must agree. It's useless for you to tell me, you should convince the old man first."

Qi Zhan frowned again, confused.

"A half million for charity? Who told you I was going to donate half a million? I clearly wanted you to stop pestering our family and stop asking questions about our pond, so I gave it to you—"

Before Qi Zhan could finish his words, there was a sudden noise outside the house.

"The scenery here is so beautiful. There are bamboo forests planted here. It's so magnificent. It looks like a temple built on the mountain."

"Look at this cobblestone path. Hey, why are these stones glowing? Wait, they don't seem to be stones. Why are they all small pieces of gravel, a bit like gems..."

"You are old and your eyesight is not good. This is not gravel or gemstones. This road is clearly paved with small pieces of jade!"

"Oh my god, where did the Qi family get so much jade? It's so extravagant! How can they be so rich? This is all pure silver!"

Jinli and others came in and felt that they had learned a lot.

Logically speaking, the entertainment industry has seen everything. Some wealthy people often invite well-known stars to various dinner parties, and even host individual dinners for stars to discuss matters.

Many celebrities have also visited the mansions of those wealthy people.

Even someone as busy as Jinli has visited the homes of wealthy people.

However, she is often invited there together with the program crew when filming variety shows. Some scenes used in variety shows are shot in the homes of wealthy people.

But no matter how rich he was, he never paved a path with jade.

Sui Lingfang was amazed and asked in a low voice: "Where did the Qi family get so many jades?"

Some villagers have already stepped onto this jade path, while some villagers, fearing that the dirt on their shoes would ruin the jade, have taken off their shoes and walked barefoot on the jade path.

Jinli didn't step on it, but just stood aside and watched, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

She said: "These jade statues are some of the leftovers after making various ornaments. The leftovers of jade will flow into the secondary market, but they did not recycle and sell them. Instead, they all paved this path."

Under the sunlight, the light emitted by these jades is not so dazzling, but each color of jade has a warm luster and a heavy feeling that embraces the earth.

A villager walked along the jade path, came to the other side, and saw a pond.

The villagers exclaimed: "Why is there no water in this pond?"

"How can there be no water in the pond? Are you seeing things?" A villager was still standing on the jade path, teasing the villagers in front of him.

However, the villager walking in front stamped his feet anxiously and shouted: "I am not mistaken, there is really no water in this pond, and this is the pond that has been passed down from generation to generation in our village. It looks exactly like the pond outside!"

"What, a pond without water?"

The other villagers walked over curiously, and actually saw a pond without water. They all looked unhappy.

On the other side, the noise coming from outside the villa became louder and louder, and Qi Zhan's inner sense of uneasiness reached its peak.

He was just about to ask someone to check what was going on outside when a servant pushed open the door and staggered in.

"Oh no, Master! The villagers have entered the villa and they saw the empty pond!" Qi Zhan stood up and was furious: "Who let them in?"

"I don't know, I don't know. I was trimming the grass and saw them coming in. I tried to stop them, but there were too many of them and they ran away in a flash."

Qi Zhan hurried out, cursing as he ran: "Useless, all of them are useless. What are they doing keeping so many people in the villa? They can't even stop one person!"

Ye Weijie understood something, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly followed him out.

After leaving the villa, there is no need for anyone's guidance. The place where the sound is loudest is where the villagers gather.

The more Qi Zhan ran, the more panicked he became. His heart was pounding and his eyelids were fluttering.

This place, this place...

When he saw clearly that the villagers were gathered around the empty pond, anger and fear surged in his heart. His legs suddenly went weak and he actually bowed to all the villagers.

When the villagers saw Qi Zhan, they were puzzled at first as to why he suddenly knelt down, but they soon understood.

"The Qi family feels guilty, so they kneel down to atone for their sins!"

"I can't forgive them! They have ruined the pond that has been passed down from generation to generation. The mud at the bottom is so dry that it crumbles when you squeeze it. It's obvious that there has been no water in this pond for a long time. Where did the Qi family steal all our water?"

"Yes, the Qi family is kneeling to us because they are guilty!"

The villagers talked one after another and did not give Qi a chance to speak.

Qi Zhan didn't know what to say.

Although he was doing business abroad, he was always protected under the protection of his father and had not experienced any major storms.

And thanks to the blessing of Chitang Village, every member of the Qi family who does business outside has extremely good luck. Not only can they find profitable business quickly, but they can also meet noble people when they enter the industry. Every customer is a kind person and has never cheated them.

Because of this, the people of this generation in the Qi family are very weak, and their scheming and eloquence are at the level of elementary school students.

No, primary school students would curse while playing games, they couldn’t even curse at the primary school students.

Qi Zhan was so angry at what the villagers said that he said awkwardly, "I, I..."

The servants in the villa ran over and were a little at a loss when they saw Qi Zhan kneeling.

When Qi Zhan saw them, he became furious again, and the veins on his neck were exposed: "Hurry up and help me up!"

He wanted to get up, but for some reason his legs suddenly lost their strength, and his shoulders seemed to be pressed down by two heavy stones, making him tired and exhausted every time he moved.

Qi Zhan didn't understand what was wrong with him. Was he really feeling guilty because of the accusations from the villagers of Chitang Village?

The most bizarre thing was that no matter how hard the servants who were supporting him tried, they couldn't lift Qi Zhan up.

The servant was horrified, feeling that he was not supporting a person but a huge stone.

The noise in the villa also attracted Qi Zhihong's attention. The third son saw through the window that the villagers gathered by the pond at home. He thought to himself that something was wrong and first ran to find his father, and then called his second brother.

He and his second brother supported their father and quickly came to the edge of the pond.

"Mr. Qi, our village gave the pond to you, not for you to destroy it!"

"The nine ponds have been passed down from generation to generation, and fish are raised in them. They have an economic value of at least hundreds of thousands!" a villager said.

"The water in your pond can't flow to the next pond. No wonder the water in the other ponds is getting stinker! Old man, you have to pay me!"

As Qi Zhihong listened to the villagers' increasingly outrageous remarks, his blood pressure began to soar.

He cursed: "Although my pond is in the middle, it is low in terrain. The water from all the ponds will eventually flow into my pond and will not participate in the circulation. The water in the other ponds is smelly because you are immoral and throw garbage and domestic water into the ponds!"

"You're still raising fish? There was no fish in this pond when I took it over. All the fish in the entire pond village combined are less than a few hundred thousand. You're committing fraud!"

The first time the water was released, he saw it clearly from the side. There were only various grasses, where were the fish?

If there was a fish in it, he wouldn't be so angry!

The villagers are ignorant, morally corrupt, and only extort rich people!
Suddenly, a clear and loud voice was heard, which seemed to carry a sense of holiness.

"So, your Qi family really didn't do anything to let Chitang Village down?"

Qi Zhihong looked over following the sound, "No, Qi family ancestors, I, Qi Zhihong, can guarantee that—"

Just as he started talking, he saw Jinli, and his eyes were stung by the golden light surrounding Jinli. This golden light was a hundred times more dazzling than what he had seen before!
So shiny, so shiny...

My eyes are going to be blinded!

A heavy force came from his shoulders, Qi Zhihong screamed, knelt on the ground, and bowed to all the villagers.

Sui Lingfang's eyes turned and she said loudly, "He knelt down again. He must be guilty!"

Chen Qin immediately agreed: "Didn't he swear on his ancestors before? Even his ancestors must look down on them, so he asked them to kneel down."

Xiao Cheng also reacted and agreed, "Yes, that's right, the people from the Qi family must kneel down too!"

As if to confirm what Xiao Cheng said, two "bang" sounds were heard, and Qi Hong and Qi Tong knelt down one after another.

As soon as they saw Jinli, they were stung by the golden light around her and closed their eyes and burst into tears.

It hurts, it hurts too much!
I felt like my whole body was run over by a car!
"Pfft!"

At this moment, the sound of a clear spring gushing out was heard suddenly. Everyone turned around and saw that at the bottom of the pond, there was a small spring gushing out from the cracked and dry soil.

As this clear spring was produced, another "puff" sound was heard, and one after another clear spring gushed out from the dry soil.

The villagers watched the scene in shock and applauded.

"It's a miracle. It must be a miracle in Chitang Village. The dry pond has water now!"

"No, this pond is originally connected to several other ponds. The Qi family must have blocked the opening, so there is no water. This is because the opening is not blocked."

"You're wrong. The water didn't come earlier or later, but it came just when we were asking for justice. It must be the mountain god behind Chitang Village showing up!"

Qi Zhihong finally opened his eyes and heard the villagers say that the pond was overflowing. He could no longer bear the burden on his shoulders and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Not only him, but several people in the Qi family could not bear the backlash of "water overflowing when it is full" and became dizzy.

"It's over, our Qi family is over..." Qi Zhihong looked up at the sky, his uncle's words still ringing in his ears.

——We must never let Chitang Village prosper, otherwise it will backfire on the Qi family, and everyone will face a disaster and catastrophe!
