"How much is it? We'll reimburse you."
Chu Mo looked at him coldly, not bothering to get entangled with such a petty person.
The man glanced at the luxury car next to him and laughed loudly:
“Great! My eight acres of cornfields yield at least 8,000 jin every year, and at 2.5 yuan per jin, that's 20,000 yuan.”
"Twenty thousand yuan? You're robbing me! My sheep only ate a small piece."
Chen Xiuzhi looked extremely annoyed.
These three Liu brothers are used to being domineering and tyrannical in the village.
Especially this Liu Dagui, who harbored ill intentions towards her, and would sometimes harass her with foul language when they met alone.
At this moment, an elder from the village hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade them:
"Da Gui, Xiu Zhi is an orphan and a widow, and she's been sick for years. It's not easy for her either."
"It's just a few corn seedlings, there's still time, just let her plant them for you."
"Exactly! Such a small thing, and you're asking for 20,000 yuan? We're all from the same village, how can we possibly ask for that?"
"Ha, of course you don't care if your stuff isn't being ruined. Is it too late to replant now?"
The middle-aged man named Liu Dagui had an arrogant look on his face, but his eyes were fixed on Chu Mo.
He knew Chen Xiuzhi definitely couldn't come up with the money, but this kid could.
Chen Xiuzhi was an outsider, and her deceased husband had no relatives.
How could he possibly miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make money?
"Okay, here you go."
Normally, given Chu Mo's temperament, he would never allow himself to be blackmailed like this.
But after all, they were their own sheep, and they ate someone else's corn seedlings, so they were in the wrong.
The key issue is that Ruyan's mother still needs to live here, and she doesn't want to strain her relationship with the neighbors.
Chen Xiuzhi looked embarrassed and hurriedly stopped her:
"Xiao Mo, let Auntie handle this. I can't let you pay for it. Besides, it's impossible for me to pay him that much."
Liu Ruyan was also annoyed and was about to step forward to reason with the other party when...
Chu Mo took a few steps forward, gently pulled her back, and shook his head, saying:
"Ruyan, forget it. There's no need to waste time haggling with this kind of person over such a small amount of money."
"I'm just furious about his outrageous demands."
The girl said angrily, but did not continue arguing with Liu Dagui.
"Twenty thousand yuan, right? I'll give it to you."
Without saying a word, Chu Mo took out his phone to transfer money to the other party.
"I was just talking about the loss of the corn seedlings, but your sheep have left droppings all over the hillside, so the cleanup cost will be at least another five thousand."
Liu Dagui didn't move, staring at him greedily with an unquestionable expression.
This outsider was timid and cowardly, but most importantly, he was damn rich. How could he miss such a good opportunity?
We definitely need to squeeze a good amount out of him.
This time, several straightforward villagers spoke up again:
"Sheep manure is on your land and can be used as fertilizer, which is a good thing. Why do you need to clean it up?"
"Even if it needs cleaning, it will only take a day. How dare you ask for five thousand dollars?"
"That's right, you can't live without a conscience."
Liu Dagui glared angrily and roared at those around him with a displeased expression:
"The person in question hasn't said anything, why are you all making such a fuss? Why don't you help him pay for it?"
This time, Liu Ruyan could no longer hold back and burst into a tirade:
"Liu Dagui, have you never seen money before? We won't pay you back the 20,000 yuan."
"We'll compensate you for whatever the sheep ate, or we can help you replant it. I'll clean up the sheep manure tomorrow."
Liu Dagui immediately flew into a rage, roaring with a fierce expression:
"Replant it? Will it be the same if you replant it? Do you think someone like you, who can hide what has happened just by putting on clothes?"
Looking at the alluring Liu Ruyan, a hint of greed flashed in his eyes.
This family of three—a mother and her two daughters—are all beautiful and charming, especially the eldest daughter, whom he has been thinking about for years.
It's a pity that the pretty boy got the good deal.
Thinking of this, he added in a cold, displeased tone:
"Isn't it just that she seduces rich men by flaunting her charms? What's so great about that?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiuzhi turned pale with anger and shouted back:
"Liu Dagui, what business is it of yours what my daughter is dating? Why are you gossiping here? Does it bother you, you old scoundrel?"
Liu Ruyan trembled with anger, her beautiful eyes blazing with fury. Without a word, she picked up a carrying pole and charged forward fiercely.
Chu Mo reacted quickly and hugged her, speaking calmly:
"Ruyan, I'll handle this."
The other villagers who were watching couldn't stand it anymore and started to persuade him.
"Da Gui, watch your tongue. We're all from the same village, why say hurtful things?"
"Exactly, what's wrong with young people dating? Why are you making it sound so awful!"
At this moment, Chu Mo's eyes were already as cold as knives. He raised his hand to interrupt everyone and said gratefully:
"Thank you everyone for speaking up for me. It's alright, I'll give him the 25,000!"
After saying that, he looked coldly at Liu Dagui, his face full of contempt, and said:
"Come here, I'll give you the money."
Although his attitude displeased Liu Dagui, he felt more regret than anything else.
If I had known they were so timid, I should have doubled the price.
But now that the words have been spoken, there's really no other reason to give for the time being.
"Kid, don't be so arrogant. In Liu Family Village, you'd better behave yourself."
Liu Dagui snorted coldly before reluctantly taking out his phone and opening the payment settings.
After a "beep," 25,000 yuan was instantly deposited into my phone.
But looking at the money, he felt as if he had lost 30,000 yuan, or even more.
Just as he was filled with regret, Chu Mo stared at him coldly and sneered:
"Now, is the matter of our sheep eating your corn seedlings settled?"
"It's cleared up. Be more careful next time. If you do it again, I won't be so lenient with you."
Liu Dagui nodded arrogantly.
"Alright, now let's settle our score."
"Our accounts? What accounts do we have to pay?"
Liu Dagui looked puzzled, then burst into wild joy.
He was just worried about not finding an excuse to extort money from the other party again, but unexpectedly, the other party foolishly took the initiative to come to his door.
Ha ha……
Looks like I've been blessed by the God of Wealth today.
He wasn't afraid of Chu Mo causing trouble; he was afraid that the other party was too timid.
How else would he make money?
What kind of trouble could an outsider stir up in Liujia Village, a place so small and undeveloped?
Chu Mo looked at him coldly, his words calm yet fierce.
"Liu Ruyan is my girlfriend. You insulted her by calling her promiscuous and seducing others. How do you intend to settle this?"
"Damn it, I've cursed you out, what can you do about it?"
Liu Dagui approached him aggressively, his face full of contemptuous provocation:
"If you hadn't acted quickly, I would have slept with both of them sooner or later."
After saying that, he raised his thick arm and arrogantly pushed him.
He wanted to see if this pretty boy could really hold back.
