What is he doing at our house?
"Are they here to collect the tractor rental fee?"
Upon seeing Wang Dalin, both Wang Yuanguang and Lu Aihua showed expressions of disgust.
In their view, Wang Qian was cheated by Wang Dalin for renting the tractor for fifteen yuan a day.
Even though they have made money now, they still hold a grudge about it.
Although Lin Xiaoyu didn't say anything, her eyes were also filled with anger.
"Wow, you harvested so many potatoes!"
When Wang Dalin arrived outside the gate, he looked at the potatoes piled up all over the yard, and his smile became even brighter.
Why are you here?
Despite his disgust, Wang Yuanguang forced a smile and went out to greet the guest.
Furthermore, since they are in the potato business, they still need to continue renting the other party's tractor.
If they offend Wang Dalin and he refuses to rent to them, how will they transport all the potatoes they've bought to the county town?
"I heard that Xiaoqian's business has grown big, so I came to take a look."
Looking at the potatoes scattered all over the ground, Wang Dalin clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "Wow, I really didn't expect Xiao Qian to have such a good business sense. In just two days, he has built such a big business. Amazing, truly amazing. No wonder he went to university!"
"Don't be fooled by the large quantity of potatoes; they won't actually fetch much money!"
Wang Yuanguang immediately tried to evade the issue.
Wang Qian said yesterday that the secrets of doing business cannot be told to anyone.
Wang Dalin was notorious in their village for his lack of morality.
"They can't sell them for much, so why are they buying so many?"
Wang Dalin snorted coldly.
However, he was too lazy to argue with Wang Yuanguang, and instead looked at Wang Qian who came out of the room, "Xiao Qian, I came here today just to talk to you about renting a car."
"Then go ahead and say it, I'm listening," Wang Qian said calmly.
Wang Dalin paused for a moment, then said meaningfully, "As you know, I agreed to rent you the tractor the day before yesterday, only because we're all from the same village."
"Otherwise, you can't rent it anywhere for fifteen yuan a day."
"You know, I just bought this tractor not long ago, and its horsepower is much better than Liu Erzhuang's broken tractor."
Upon hearing this, Wang Qian raised an eyebrow and said directly, "You want to raise the price, don't you?"
Wang Dalin's expression froze.
But after his eyes darted around a few times, he still said awkwardly, "Xiao Qian, it's not that I'm deliberately making things difficult for you, but renting this tractor to you for fifteen yuan a day is really not a good deal!"
"As you know, I can earn at least fifty yuan a day by myself."
"Now that your business has grown so big, shouldn't you at least raise the rent for me as a gesture of goodwill?"
As he spoke, a lewd smile appeared on his face.
"How many do you want?"
Wang Qian continued to ask calmly.
He had already anticipated Wang Dalin's intention to raise prices yesterday.
But Wang Yuanguang immediately became indignant, "Wang Dalin, you're taking advantage of my misfortune!"
Lu Aihua couldn't help but say, "Wang Dalin, my son Xiaoqian is already paying fifteen yuan a day to rent your tractor, which is already a high price. How can you raise the price while we're harvesting potatoes? How can you be such a person?"
What's wrong with me?
Wang Dalin, though outwardly fierce, said weakly, "The tractor is mine, and it's my freedom to rent it out or not."
"you……"
Lu Aihua and Wang Yuanguang wanted to continue arguing, but Wang Qian waved them off, saying, "Dad, Mom, I'll talk to him."
Then, he looked at Wang Dalin and said, "So, how much do you want the price to go up?"
"Xiao Qian is the most sensible one."
Wang Dalin smiled smugly and immediately held up three rough fingers to Wang Qian.
Thirty yuan a day?
Wang Yuanguang couldn't hold back any longer, "Wang Dalin, why don't you just rob us?"
"Brother Guang, you can't say that."
Wang Dalin acted as if he were a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, saying, "This tractor of mine is only worth this price. You don't have to rent it. If you don't want to rent it, I'll drive it away right away. Do you really think I care about the 15 yuan rental fee per day?"
"Wang Dalin, you've gone too far!"
Wang Yuanguang was so angry that his face turned ashen.
Lu Aihua was also indignant.
Lin Xiaoyu was also filled with indignation.
Despite their anger, they dared not actually let Wang Dalin drive the tractor away.
After all, they just bought more than 8,000 jin of potatoes.
Wang Dalin's tractor was their only means of transportation to get the potatoes to the county town.
If Wang Dalin really takes the tractor away, all the potatoes in their yard will just rot there.
What happened?
Just then, a slightly aged voice came from not far away.
Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see Zheng Laoliu and his wife, each carrying a basket of potatoes, walking towards them.
Behind Zheng Laoliu and his wife was a group of villagers.
Each person carried a basket on their back, which was filled with potatoes.
"Sixth Brother, you've come at the perfect time!"
Wang Yuanguang felt like he had seen a savior and hurriedly stepped forward to recount how Wang Dalin had taken advantage of the situation to rob people.
After hearing this, Zheng Laoliu and the others were filled with righteous indignation and began to criticize Wang Dalin.
"Wang Dalin, you're a terrible person! How could you do such a despicable thing?"
"Fifteen yuan a day to rent? I already think Xiaoqian is being ripped off by you. How dare you raise the price?"
"Are you out of your mind for money?"
"If it weren't for Xiaoqian, we wouldn't know where to sell all the potatoes we've been hoarding at home."
"Wang Dalin, how can you live with yourself after doing this?"
"His conscience has long been eaten by dogs!"
Faced with the crowd's reprimands, Wang Dalin blushed.
But since things had escalated to this point, he simply abandoned all pretense of shame and coldly snorted like a deadbeat, "So what if I'm taking advantage of your misfortune?"
"The tractors are mine. I can rent as many as I want, and I can rent them to whomever I want."
"I'm asking for thirty yuan a day now. If you can't afford it, I'll just take the tractor away. What can you do about it?"
Hearing this, everyone became even more furious.
Zheng Laoliu was so angry that he was about to rush over and beat someone up, but fortunately he was forcibly pulled back by the people next to him.
"Listen to me, everyone!"
Seeing the scene getting increasingly chaotic, Wang Qian finally spoke up, "He's right. The tractor is his, and he can rent it to whomever he wants, as many as he wants. That's his freedom."
Instantly, everyone fell silent.
However, everyone's gaze toward Wang Qian was filled with disappointment.
Everyone could see that Wang Dalin was taking advantage of the situation.
Wang Qian, as the victim, actually spoke up for Wang Dalin. What's wrong with his brain?
Or is Wang Qian prepared to back down and admit defeat in order to keep the business going?
Not only Zheng Laoliu and others, but also Wang Yuanguang, Lu Aihua, and Lin Xiaoyu cast questioning glances at Wang Qian.
However, everyone was stunned when they heard what Wang Qian said next.
