After a morning of hard work, the school playground had been completely cleaned up by the construction team, and it now looked somewhat like a school.

After lunch, Yun Mo asked the construction team to collect the river sand, cement, and broken asbestos tiles at the school gate and use them all to pave the playground.

Time passed like sand between fingers, and in the blink of an eye it was evening.

After finishing work, Yun Mo found You Wei and said, "Master You, can you please have someone deliver two more truckloads of river sand, ten bags of cement, and 50 asbestos tiles tomorrow? While the weather is good, finish the walls and roof first. The windows can wait until later."

Listening to Yun Mo's plan, You Wei showed some hesitation on his face, "Boss, I have already asked people about what happened this morning."

Yun Mo pretended to be surprised, "Really? Then tell me quickly, who did it?"

You Wei sighed, "It doesn't matter who did it, the key is why they did it, right?"

Yun Mo nodded depressedly, "Yes, we didn't provoke them, why would they pick on us?"

"It's a long story."

"Then keep your story short."

You Wei choked for a moment, then told everything he knew.

It turned out that the township deliberately leaked the news to nearby villagers, saying that Zhejiang businessmen had taken a fancy to the school's land and planned to build a garment factory.

Once the garment factory is built, it will provide hundreds of jobs to the village every year.

For the people of Wanchuan Township, one job is equal to the livelihood of one family, and hundreds of jobs are equal to the livelihood of hundreds of families.

Now, the Huang family occupies this land, which is equivalent to cutting off the livelihoods of hundreds of families. Naturally, the villagers dislike the Huang family and try every means to sabotage them.

Village head Lu really went to great lengths to drive them away.

Yun Mo was secretly sarcastic in her heart, but pretended to be indignant on the surface.

"How can you blame us for this? We paid real money to rent this land and promised to help the village build a road. Did the Zhejiang businessmen also agree to help the village build a road?"

You Wei was stunned for a moment, "I haven't heard of this."

Yun Mo continued, "Although our bamboo weaving factory is not large, we are willing to provide jobs for everyone, and we have also promised to contribute 2,000 yuan every year to the village to organize activities to respect the elderly. Isn't this enough?"

You Wei had no idea about this and was speechless for a while.

Yun Mo clenched her fist and said angrily, "If someone respects me one foot, I will respect him ten feet! The more they use such despicable means to force me, the more I will occupy this piece of land. I want to see if they dare to rob it openly! At worst, I will go to the Municipal Party Committee to appeal. If the city does not care, I will go to the capital to appeal! Even if I have to quit the bamboo weaving factory, I will seek justice for myself."

After hearing Yun Mo's words from You Wei, although He Ganshi didn't show any emotion on his face, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Once this matter gets out, given the shrewdness and selfishness of Zhejiang businessmen, they will definitely not consider the school land anymore, and then Wanchuan Township may end up losing both ends.

After separating from You Wei, Secretary He immediately went to the home of Township Chief Lu.

Upon hearing that the Huang family not only had no intention of leaving, but were planning to fight to the end, Village Chief Lu became a little worried.

Since you won’t eat the hard stuff, I’ll have to try the soft stuff.

The next day, Yun Mo had just finished breakfast and was about to go to school to see if the building materials she requested yesterday had been delivered. As soon as she went out, she saw Township Chief Lu walking towards her with his hands behind his back, followed by Secretary He and several village cadres. His authority was quite powerful and he arrived faster than she had imagined.

Yun Mo sneered and then put on a welcoming attitude, "Village Chief Lu, what brings you here so early in the morning?"

Village head Lu already knew that Yun Mo was the one who made the decisions on the Huang family's side, so he no longer dared to underestimate her.

"Okay, everyone please sit inside."

Huang Kailin was cleaning the yard. When he saw Yun Mo, Village Chief Lu and several village officials coming, he subconsciously stopped what he was doing.

Yun Mo said, "Grandpa, this is Mayor Lu of Wanchuan Township."

Huang Kailin became reserved when he learned about the identity of Township Chief Lu. "Please take a seat. I'll make tea for you."

"Well, thank you for your help."

Village head Lu nodded towards Huang Kailin in a pretentious manner.

Upon learning that Village Chief Lu had arrived, Huang Zhiqiu, who was cleaning the stove in the kitchen, couldn't help but worry.

Huang Kailin said, "Let's not think too much. If an enemy comes, we will fight him. If a flood comes, we will drown it. I don't believe they won't follow the law."

Huang Zhiqiu washed the dishes as quickly as possible and took the tea that Huang Kailin had prepared. "Dad, give it to me."

"Okay, go ahead."

In the main hall, as soon as Township Chief Lu sat down, he explained his purpose. "Miss Yun, I heard that someone went to school yesterday and caused trouble for you. As the head of a township, I am ashamed that such a thing happened in the place under my jurisdiction. I brought people here today to express our attitude."

Yun Mo sighed, "Who said it wasn't true? We spent so much money to rent the land and agreed to help the village build roads, but not only did we not get a single good word from them, but they also secretly used these shady tricks to deal with us. It really makes us feel disheartened."

Township Chief Lu immediately said, "Don't worry, we will investigate this matter as soon as possible and give you an explanation."

"Okay then. We'll wait."

At this time, Huang Zhiqiu brought in the brewed tea and placed it in front of everyone in turn.

Village head Lu changed his previous lukewarm attitude and chatted with Huang Zhiqiu with a smile.

"Sister Huang, I've always thought you were a capable woman, but I didn't expect your daughter to be even better than you. She can handle things on her own at such a young age. You and your daughter are truly a model of women being as capable as men."

"Village Chief Lu is joking."

Huang Zhiqiu took the opportunity to sit next to Yun Mo.

Seeing that Huang Zhiqiu was lukewarm, Village Chief Lu winked at Officer He beside him.

Secretary He understood and said, "Sister Huang, we are here today to talk to you about the school land."

Huang Zhiqiu said directly: "If you have anything to say, just talk to Momo. She is the one who makes the decisions about the bamboo weaving factory."

Upon hearing this, Township Chief Lu immediately complained to Yun Mo, "Miss Yun, I have no choice, otherwise they wouldn't come to me again and again. The leaders above have said that this piece of land should be given to investors from Zhejiang Province to build a garment factory.

There are nearly 400 households in Wanchuan Township, one-third of which are still poor households. Whether these more than 100 poor households can get rid of poverty next year depends entirely on this piece of land. I hope you can understand and support my work. "

If she does not agree to return the land to the township, wouldn't she become the culprit who delays more than 100 poor households from getting out of poverty?

“Village head Lu, I understand your determination to lead your fellow villagers to prosperity and get rid of poverty, but you also have to understand the difficulties faced by grassroots people like us in starting a business.

In order to rent this piece of land, we almost broke our family to collect money and even borrowed a large amount of foreign debt. Now the factory is about to be built and will be officially put into production after the Chinese New Year. If you ask us to move out now, where can we move to?"
