Three hundred thousand a year?
Not to mention Ma Debiao, even the villagers in the surrounding Taoyuan Village were stunned.
This thing is not the Queen Mother's foot washing water, why does it cost so much?
Ma Debiao's face darkened and he was furious.
"Chen Xiaobao, why the hell don't you go and rob? Three hundred thousand a year, and you dare to ask for it!" Ma Debiao roared angrily.
"This is the price anyway, take it or leave it!"
Chen Xiaobao sneered and said lazily.
Ma Debiao had a grim expression on his face and had to look to Wang Defa for help. Chen Xiaobao was a stubborn guy and he couldn't be defeated in a fight. He also couldn't make sense when he was talked to. There was really nothing he could do.
Wang Defa's face was also very ugly. He was the mayor of Qingshan Town. He came here in person, but Chen Xiaobao still opened his mouth so loudly. He really didn't give him any face at all.
"Comrade Xiao Chen, three hundred thousand a year is too high a price. Even the tap water in the city doesn't cost that much. For my sake, can you give me a lower price?"
Wang Defa said intentionally or unintentionally, "I heard that the children in your Taoyuan Village have some trouble going to elementary school. If you have any problems, go to the township. The township can help you solve it!"
After hearing this, all the villagers in Taoyuan Village became a little uneasy.
These bastards in the village are just like local tyrants. When there is a problem, they can send all the children in the village back from school with just one word and not allow them to go to school anymore.
Power outage, water shortage, and not allowing children to go to school, these are the three tough measures, there is no way to refuse.
This is especially likely to happen in remote villages.
The village chief is indeed a local emperor to the villagers of Taoyuan Village.
"Since Mayor Wang has spoken, then fine, I'll give you a discount of 100,000 yuan. The annual water fee is 200,000 yuan. After paying 200,000 yuan, you can use the water from Taohuatan as much as you want!"
Chen Xiaobao sneered and said directly, "Originally, I was going to develop a tourism project in Taohuatan. The TV host Jiang Xiao and Mr. Qin Sihai of Sihai Hotel both said that the scenery here is beautiful. It would be a pity not to build a tourist attraction. The water use of the people in Xiushui Village might affect the construction of the tourist attraction!"
"It's only right that I charge a little more as compensation!"
Chen Xiaobao deliberately mentioned Jiang Xiao and Qin Sihai, meaning to tell Wang Defa that although he was the local emperor of Qingshan Town, Chen Xiaobao was also capable.
If things really go too far, he may not be able to deal with Wang Defa.
Sure enough, when Wang Defa heard this, his face immediately turned grim.
After all, how capable can a group of peasants be?
He could solve the problem with some simple arrangements, but Chen Xiaobao had connections in the city, so some of his methods were not effective.
"De Biao, if it doesn't work, let the township think of a way to help your Xiushui Village dig a few more wells!" Wang Defa couldn't think of a good idea for a while, so he could only say to Ma De Biao with a grim look.
"Chen Xiaobao, are you serious? Two hundred thousand a year, can I use the water from Taohuatan as I please?" Ma Debiao asked with gritted teeth.
Although two hundred thousand is not a small amount, Ma Debiao can definitely afford it.
If you invest 200,000 yuan, you can grow fairy peaches in Taoyuan, then you will make a lot of money. The harvest of one acre of land a year may be more than 200,000 yuan.
Chen Xiaobao miscalculated, thinking that the boy would be reluctant to spend 200,000 to buy water. Unfortunately, the boy was wrong. Humph, the old man is more experienced.
"De Biao, are you really going to spend two hundred thousand to buy water?" Wang Defa was also shocked. Two hundred thousand was enough for him to wash his feet many times. Is this old guy Ma Debiao crazy?
"Chen Xiaobao, a gentleman's word is as good as a whip. Today, in front of the village head, I will give you 200,000 yuan, but you have to sign a water supply contract with me and seal it!"
Ma Debiao said, gritting his teeth.
Xiushui Village is a very small place and there is not much money to make. Besides, Ma Debiao has two sons and his two sons' marriages cost him a lot of money, especially his eldest son who bought a house in the city. For Ma Debiao, taking out 200,000 now is a huge loss.
"Are you really willing to buy it? Okay, take the money and let's sign the contract!"
Chen Xiaobao showed a half-smile, knowing that the old man Ma Debiao was blinded by greed and had been fooled.
Ma Debiao didn't waste any time and went home to get the money immediately. He also asked the village accountant to draft a contract. Chen Xiaobao checked the contract and confirmed that there was no problem with it. He took the money and signed it immediately.
"Chen Xiaobao, now that the contract has been signed, you can't interfere with me pumping water from Taohuatan in the next year!" Ma Debiao was extremely excited holding the contract.
Although it cost me $200,000, which was a lot of money, it was a good deal to get this contract.
"You can smoke as much as you want, as long as you don't destroy the environment of Taohuatan!"
Chen Xiaobao sneered in his heart but said calmly on his face.
"Okay, village chief, I'm leaving first!" Ma Debiao couldn't contain his excitement. He took the contract and turned around and left, immediately going back to arrange for water to be pumped out from Taohuatan.
He had to arrange to buy a pump and pipes immediately.
Wang Defa looked unhappy and turned around and left. He personally showed up today but failed to solve the problem for Ma Debiao. He even made Ma Debiao spend 200,000 yuan to buy water. His face was actually useless.
This made Wang Defa very unhappy.
"Village Chief Wang, please stay and have a meal before you leave!"
Li Dajiang hurriedly followed diligently.
"You Taoyuan Village charged me two hundred thousand for just a little water. I don't know how much I'll be charged for a meal from you. Keep the meal for yourself!"
Wang Defa said unsatisfactorily.
After saying that, Wang Defa got into the Santana and left without looking back.
"Xiaobao, our village has offended the township head now!" Li Dajiang said with helplessness and worry on his face.
"So what if he's offended? The development of our village depends on ourselves, not on him!" Chen Xiaobao said indifferently, and then took out 100,000 yuan and distributed it to the families of the villagers who had previously participated in guarding Taohuatan.
This time, regardless of whether you were injured or not, as long as someone from your family came over that day, everyone could get a penny, and each household could get several hundred or even a thousand.
When it comes to benefits, the problem is not that there is too little of them, but that they are not distributed evenly. Chen Xiaobao can eat the meat, but he must leave some soup for the villagers, otherwise problems will arise over time.
But you can't give too much money. There are countless examples of the principle of repaying a favor with a grudge.
To put it bluntly, interests can be shared, but they cannot be shared unconditionally.
At the same time, Ma Debiao returned home and bought a water pump and pipes. Money was spent like water. The more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became. Just then, his eldest son Ma Xin came back with his beautiful wife who was dressed fashionably.
When Ma Debiao saw his beautiful and fashionable daughter-in-law, his eyes rolled and a plan came to his mind.
"Boss, we are out of good wine at home. Go to town and buy two bottles of good wine and some good meat. Let's have a drink at noon!" Ma Debiao took out two thousand yuan and handed it to Ma Xin. Ma Xin's eyes lit up. Just as he was about to call his beautiful wife to join him, he heard Ma Debiao continue, "Xuanxuan, go see your niece. Wenwen is very tired taking care of the children every day!"
