"No, village chief, you must promise me. You are the village chief, and Zheng Dandan is just a little girl. Does she dare to disobey you?" Zhang Guiju's eyes were red.

Zheng Dandan's factory, even if she wasn't hired, wouldn't make her life any worse. But who made her so jealous?

He was very jealous and resented the Zheng family's good life. So when Zheng Datong was suspended, he couldn't wait to add insult to injury and gloat over their misfortune. He was very jealous, and the gap between him and the villagers was getting bigger and bigger, which made him lose his mind.

"Zhang Guiju, I hope you can be more respectful to President Zheng!" Tan Xueming looked at Zhang Guiju unhappily. He was more likely to be angry if Zheng Dandan was offended than if he was offended.

"Zhang Guiju, go back!" The village chief was finally enraged and scolded with a stern face.

"Village chief..." Zhang Guiju was afraid, but she still hesitated. He was a worker. If the village chief agreed to help her, her family would not be the poorest!

"I told you to go back, Zhang Guiju, don't make me angry." The village chief looked at her coldly.

Zhang Guiju's heart trembled, and she had no choice but to leave.

"She seems to have a bad relationship with Mr. Zheng's family?" After Zhang Guiju left, Tan Xueming glanced at her back and asked the village chief.

"We're all from the same village, so some minor friction is unavoidable," the village chief said perfunctorily. He didn't like Zhang Guiju, but he also didn't want her to be negatively influenced.

"Really?" Tan Xueming's expression was a little cold, but he quickly adjusted himself. "Don't delay any longer. Let's go to the town. I hope the villagers can have a prosperous New Year this year."

"You're right." The village chief agreed, and then took Tan Xueming to the town government.

That’s right, it’s the town government, not the brick factory.

The village chief was only the head of Ginkgo Village, so he might not have a say if he went directly to the brick and tile factory. However, he was smart and capable, and had a good relationship with his superiors.

"What a rare guest! Why are you here?" The deputy mayor looked at the village chief and greeted him with a smile.

"Mayor Zhao, I'm here to ask you a favor." The village chief looked at the deputy mayor and said.

"I told you that you never come here for no reason. Tell me, what's the matter?" Mayor Zhao looked at the village chief. He had a good impression of the village chief, who was a man who could get things done.

"Look, a returned overseas enterprise has chosen our Ginkgo Village..." The village chief told Mayor Zhao the whole story, and then stated his own request, "They are currently short of funds, and the prices charged by the brick and tile factory are too high, so they are considering government support. Our village has no money, so we were thinking of asking Mayor Zhao for help..."

"You're lucky, kid!" Mayor Zhao sighed when he heard someone was setting up a factory in Ginkgo Village. But asking him to pay for it wasn't easy. "But our town doesn't have any money either."

"I'm not here to ask the town for money. I'm here for construction. I want to see if the brick and tile factory can lower the price." As he said this, he told Mayor Zhao the price that Tan Xueming told him.

Mayor Zhao frowned upon hearing this, "Isn't this price too low?"

"Chief Zhao, this is all for the sake of construction, isn't it? Although the price is low, the brick and tile factory is making a profit. We're not taking advantage of them." The village chief looked at Chief Zhao and said, "I know the town is having a hard time, so I never expected them to pay. But we finally have a good opportunity, and I hope the town will support our Ginkgo Village."

"The price has to be a little higher." Mayor Zhao said with relief.

The village chief was not happy. He insisted, "It can't be higher. If the brick factory's price is higher, we villagers will have less money."

"What do you mean?" Mayor Zhao looked alert when he heard the village chief's words.
