Cui Fangzheng's words confirmed that the higher-ups were discriminating against each other, which was obviously going to make things difficult for the people of Fengtou Village.
Several people were very angry after hearing this.
Hu Dazhuang said angrily in a rough voice.
"Why? Why would the higher-ups treat us like this?"
Wu Feng also asked, "Yeah, our village didn't provoke them nor did they offend them, so why are they treating us like this?"
Cui Fangzheng sighed helplessly, "For money, what else could it be? They don't care about anything else now, only money in their eyes. They all know that our village has become rich recently, but they have never had the opportunity to make money from us, so they use this trick to deal with us."
Wu Feng and Hu Dazhuang became even angrier after hearing this.
"We earned the money through our own hard work, and we didn't use their help. Why should they be so concerned about it?"
"Yes, if we count the credit, it's Yunfei and Miaomiao who deserve it. They've done a favor for our village. What does it have to do with those high-ranking officials?"
"That's right! Why didn't anyone care about us when we were living in poverty and had nothing to eat? Now that we have some money, they treat us like this. It seems that we will never have a good life in the future. Even if we make money, it's useless because it will all belong to others in the end."
The three of them sighed, their voices filled with helplessness.
Wu Feng rolled up his sleeves in anger and asked.
"Village head, tell me who is targeting our village. I will kill him even if it costs me my life. We can't let our hard-earned money fall into the hands of such a person."
Seeing this, Cui Fangzheng quickly reached out to stop him and tried to persuade him earnestly.
"Don't be impulsive. What's the point of killing one? There's still the second, the third, the hundredth. As long as they know that people in our village have money and there's lucrative opportunities, they won't let us go."
Having said that, he sighed heavily and frowned.
"If fighting ruthlessly would be useful, you wouldn't have to fight. I'm willing to fight for the people of our village, but it's a pity it's useless."
The three angry people finally calmed down because of Cui Fangzheng's words.
They silently sat back on the wooden stools, lowered their heads and said nothing.
In contrast, Xiao Yunfei remained unusually calm.
This country was rotten from top to bottom, and he had long since given up hope on those in power.
He knew that no matter how much the four of them discussed here, it would be useless. The only solution to the problem lay with Su Miaomiao.
So he comforted them briefly and let them go home.
Before they separated, Xiao Yunfei asked Cui Fangzheng to give him the task of dividing everyone into groups and demarcating the work areas. He would divide everyone up tonight, and tomorrow Cui Fangzheng would just need to announce the list to everyone.
Cui Fangzheng agreed without hesitation.
As for why Xiao Yunfei wanted to do this personally, Xiao Yunfei didn't say, and Cui Fangzheng didn't ask.
After seeing Wu Feng and the other two off, Xiao Yunfei strode towards the room where Su Miaomiao was.
The door of the room was open, and the four sons were playing checkers on the kang, but Su Miaomiao and the eldest daughter were nowhere to be seen.
"Where are your mother and sister?"
"Mom is taking my sister to take a bath."
After hearing this, Xiao Yunfei turned around and walked out of the house, heading towards the shower room in the backyard.
He had just taken a few steps when he heard the voice of Su Yong, the son of Mr. Su, from behind him.
"Brother Yunfei, wait for me."
Xiao Yunfei paused, turned around and asked.
"What's wrong?"
"Zhang Xing just came back from a meeting. I heard him say that you'll be going to the mountains to cut trees starting tomorrow. I'm sure you'll be very busy then and won't have time to take care of us. Look, my father has almost recovered. Why don't you take some time out in the next two days to send us back?"
Su Yong's eyes were evasive when he spoke.
During this period, the father and son lived and ate at Xiao Yunfei's house. His father's life was saved by Xiao Yunfei and Zhang Xing, and the medicine they used was all prepared by Zhang Xing himself.
Xiao Yunfei's family has done them a favor, but he and his son have never had the chance to repay them. If they leave like this, he is worried that Xiao Yunfei will have some thoughts in his mind.
Su Yong was afraid that Xiao Yunfei would misunderstand, so he continued.
"We're just going back for a few days. My father can come back anytime if you need him. We will never forget the kindness your family has shown us. If you're really worried, we won't go back. We've only sent letters home before, and they haven't seen my father in person. I'm afraid they'll miss him."
Xiao Yunfei's mood was as calm as ever.
The rule here is that once work starts, men in the family cannot be absent from work without reason and can only leave the village during the rest period, but there is no requirement for women and children.
He thought it would be a bit difficult to drive them there, but Miaomiao happened to be going to Chunlan County to ship goods tomorrow.
So he looked up and said.
"Okay, my wife is going to Chunlan County tomorrow, so I can send you back to reunite with your family."
"Thank you! Thank you so much."
Su Yong quickly clasped his hands together and thanked Xiao Yunfei.
They had been away from home for some time and were really homesick.
After getting along with each other, he believed in Xiao Yunfei's character, and as long as Xiao Yunfei promised, he would definitely do what he said.
He had to go back quickly and tell his father the good news.
"Yun Fei, you go ahead and get busy. I'll go back and tell my dad the good news."
After Su Yong finished speaking, he turned around and walked away quickly.
Xiao Yunfei also turned around immediately and continued walking towards the shower room.
Before this, he had always wanted to find an opportunity to mine the iron ore on the back mountain, but he never found the time, mainly because he had not found a suitable opportunity and was afraid that the noise would be too loud and arouse suspicion.
