"If we follow the director's logic, then the brick factory should belong to the entire township? After all, many of those mountains are within the boundaries of the villages below," Lei Tingjun said coldly. "The red clay mined for the brick factory is indeed a resource from the mountains within the Honghe Township area. Then I can't help but ask, Director, you're asking for 50,000 yuan for this brick factory. How much of that will actually be subsidized to the villagers?"
The director was stumped by the question.

Didn't they say he came from that poor place called Xiahegou and dropped out of junior high school? The director thought he must have made a fortune outside and wanted to come back to his hometown to show off, so he raised the price as much as he could.
