This is free money!
The way they looked at Shen Qiqi instantly became extremely enthusiastic.
There was a sense of satisfaction in the air, and even the surrounding air became fresh.
Uncle Lu looked at the scene in front of him, and his face turned pale instantly, as if he had eaten a fly.
He didn't expect Shen Qiqi to use this trick, directly cutting off the source of his support and completely sidelining him.
Shen Qiqi saw the turning point, and her sense of accomplishment burst out, and she smiled brightly.
She said to Uncle Lu, "Uncle, this is settled. What do you think...?"
She didn't finish her words, but looked at Uncle Lu meaningfully.
Uncle Lu looked at the confident smile on Shen Qiqi's face, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Uncle Lu's face instantly turned into a palette of colors, turning red and white, like an eggplant hit by frost, wilted.
He stammered for a long time and couldn't utter a complete sentence. He could only stamp his feet in anger like a clown.
The surrounding villagers looked like they were enjoying a good show, their eyes full of schadenfreude.
Brother Zhang, who was originally frowning, is now beaming with joy. His fat face is filled with smiles, making him look like Maitreya Buddha.
"Oh my god, this trick of the third sister-in-law is really amazing! What do you call it? It's like cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron and directly sidelining the old guy!" He raised his thumb and praised Shen Qiqi fiercely. His flattering look made him look like a "licking dog".
Sister Li also agreed, her eyes full of admiration. Her previous retreat was swept away, replaced by full enthusiasm.
"Third sister-in-law, you are so amazing! I am convinced and will follow you from now on!" She patted her chest and promised, wishing she could kneel down to Shen Qiqi and give her a "love kiss".
Captain Zhao also looked at Shen Qiqi with new eyes. He used to think that Shen Qiqi was just "playing around", but now it seems that this young wife is really capable.
"Third daughter-in-law, you have a really smart brain! I support you on this matter!" He patted his chest and assured, his tone full of approval.
Wang, the bank employee, also put away his previous seriousness and showed a faint smile on his face, as if he had more confidence in Shen Qiqi.
Shen Qiqi looked at everyone's attitude towards her, which had changed from previous doubts to current trust, and the sense of accomplishment in her heart was simply overwhelming.
She felt like a "strong woman" with "cheat" and was full of strength.
She looked around at her companions who were looking at her with admiration, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile, like a queen patrolling her territory.
Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi shining in the crowd, his eyes full of pride and love, like a guardian watching his treasure being discovered.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, his eyes were so gentle that tears could drip from them, and his whole aura became gentle.
A tacit understanding that did not require words formed between him and Shen Qiqi, like a silent piece of music, slowly flowing between the two of them.
Shen Qiqi felt Lu Qing's scorching gaze, and her heart felt warm as if it were blown by a spring breeze.
She turned her head and gave Lu Qing a sweet smile, her eyes full of emotion, like a blooming rose, gorgeous and tempting.
She turned around and said to everyone, "Since everyone has no objection, then it's settled!" She looked around, her eyes sweeping across everyone's face. Her confident expression made everyone present feel inexplicably at ease.
When Shen Qiqi was about to discuss the next arrangements with everyone, a discordant voice suddenly rang out from the crowd: "Wait! Isn't this dividend issue a bit too general?"
Just as Shen Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief, she heard a buzz of discussion coming from the crowd, like a group of bees buzzing non-stop after discovering a new source of nectar.
Several villagers squeezed to the front and looked at Shen Qiqi with confusion, like a few curious kittens, their eyes full of curiosity.
"Qiqi, could you be more specific about the dividend distribution? How will it be divided? When will it be distributed?" A white-haired old man asked first. He squinted his eyes, like a shrewd old fox, his eyes full of shrewdness.
"Yes, yes, we have no idea how to divide the money!" Another aunt echoed. She shouted like an old hen, afraid that others could not hear her.
The surrounding villagers also nodded in agreement.
For a moment, an atmosphere of doubt filled the crowd like smog, making people feel a little breathless.
Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and tried to keep smiling. She felt her temples throbbing as if a hundred small drums were beating on her.
She patiently explained, "Dear uncles and aunts, regarding the dividends, we will definitely distribute them according to everyone's investment ratio after the project officially becomes profitable. We will formulate a specific dividend plan in the next few days and post it on the village bulletin board. Please rest assured that we will not treat you unfairly!"
When she spoke, her tone was as calm as possible, like a gentle teacher explaining a difficult problem to her students.
However, she felt like an ant on a hot pan, and the nervous emotions were like vines, tightly wrapped around her heart.
Just when everyone thought the matter was about to be resolved, a villager ran over panting. He was out of breath and his face was pale, like a frightened rabbit.
"No...Oh no! Qiqi, our equipment...equipment..."
"What's wrong with the equipment?" Shen Qiqi's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition surged into her heart, like a cold poisonous snake, tightly wrapping around her body.
"The equipment...the equipment was confiscated!" The villager finally spoke a complete sentence. His voice trembled, like a fallen leaf, full of despair.
"What?!" Shen Qiqi's face changed drastically. She felt as if her blood had solidified, like an ice sculpture, motionless.
She grabbed the villager's arm and asked hurriedly, "What's going on? Speak slowly!"
The villager took a few breaths and said intermittently: "Our... equipment... was... was... was..."
"By what?" Shen Qiqi's heart was in her throat. She felt that her breathing became difficult, like a bird trapped in a cage, desperately trying to escape.
The villager swallowed hard and said with difficulty: "It was... blocked by a landslide..."
Shen Qiqi's eyes went dark and she almost fainted.
She stumbled a few steps, and Lu Qing quickly supported her and asked with concern, "Qiqi, are you okay?"
Shen Qiqi shook her head, took a deep breath, and tried to keep herself calm.
She raised her head, looked into the distance with a determined gaze, and said in a low voice: "Let's go and take a look!"
