Taofeng Village has a beautiful environment and was originally the target of many developers, and the government also wanted to develop it.
However, unexpectedly, when developers tried to develop the village, some troubles arose, and people even died as a result.
Some developers didn't believe in superstitions and invited a master to come over, but even after the master performed the ritual, the situation remained the same, and eventually no one wanted to develop the village anymore.
The villagers, who had hoped to make a fortune through village development, were disappointed when their plans fell through. Eventually, they lost all hope after the situation had become too complicated.
After seeing the death, many people moved away. Except for those whose families were in poor condition and unable to move out, those who were able to left after the death.
Now, the young people in the village would rather go out to work and rent houses elsewhere than stay here.
Now, only middle-aged and elderly people, or left-behind children and teenagers, remain in this village; young people are few and far between.
When the old village chief heard that another developer was coming, he came out to greet them, but the joyful expression on his face was no longer what it had been more than ten years ago.
In the old village chief's mind, he probably wouldn't actually invest in this project, given the problems facing their village.
There was once a developer whose funds were tied up because of their village, and the company eventually went bankrupt as a result.
With so many things happening, the people of Taofeng Village have gotten used to it. At most, they just come over to join in the fun and see who has taken a liking to their village.
The old village chief wasn't surprised to see the large convoy of cars approaching; every time the developers came, a huge wave of vehicles would arrive.
This is because the old village chief is unfamiliar with current car brands; if it were a young person, they would definitely be exclaiming in surprise.
The car that Tang Bao and his friends drove was different from the cars that other developers drove back then; how could they compare?
There were a few young men in the crowd, but they were all thugs. Although they couldn't recognize the value of their cars, they were all dressed in expensive-looking suits and exuded an air of authority when they saw Chu Yiting and his group arrive.
Looking at the two little children with them, one can't help but roll their eyes, feeling contempt for these rich people.
Didn't you say you were here for an inspection? Why did you bring a child?
However, precisely because they had children with them, I didn't find them suspicious at all.
The people Liu Zixing arranged never expected that the person who came to see him would bring two children with him. Weren't they just a burden?
It was nearly four o'clock, the sun was setting, and the setting sun shone on the rolling mountains, like scattered grains of rice.
Holding Chu Yiting's large hand, Tang Bao looked up at the beautiful scenery and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"Big brother, this place is so beautiful!"
"Does Tangbao think it's beautiful? How about big brother buys this place and builds a resort for you?"
Chu Yiting affectionately patted Tang Bao's little head and spoke with an air of dominance.
"Okay, okay!" Tangbao clapped her chubby little hands happily.
Chu Yiting nodded and said generously, "Okay, then I'll buy it!"
These words made the villagers' mouths twitch, and they looked at Chu Yiting as if he were a fool.
Those who hold patriarchal views, in particular, think that Chu Yiting has really lost his mind.
"Oh dear! Why spoil a little girl like this!"
"What a waste! It would have been so much better if we had that much money!"
"What right does a worthless person have to spend money!"
After all, this is the suburbs. Even if people are more modern in their thinking, the older folks still hold onto old ideas and prefer sons to daughters.
Chu Yiting and his group also heard the discussions among the elderly people around them.
Although these elderly people spoke in their lowest voices, their hearing was failing due to their age. What they thought was a soft voice still reached Chu Yiting and the others clearly.
Chu Yiting and the others glanced coldly at the old people, a chilling glint flashing in their eyes.
Now, Chu Yiting has decided that, because of these elderly people, even if he were to buy the land here, he doesn't intend to offer them a good price, nor does he intend to make proper arrangements for them.
After everything is settled, let them know the truth, especially the elderly who have sons. Let them know that the reason they received so little money is because the elderly people are sexist and favor sons over daughters. Then, the younger generations of these elderly people will definitely not treat them well.
They should also experience what it means to be abandoned by their son. I wonder if they will regret having a son in the first place?
Because of the elderly people, the first impression wasn't very good, so Chu Yiting and the others didn't say much and let the old village chief and the others observe the village.
When the old village chief heard Chu Yiting say he would buy it for Tang Bao, his heart was filled with hope.
Because a developer once planned to develop this area, there were some traces of construction work done in the village, but because of the passage of time, they have all been abandoned.
However, in order to build a relatively new office building, and to make things convenient for them, the old village chief arranged for them to rest in the village committee building.
As for dinner, after Tang Bao told him that Liu Zixing was definitely here, Chu Yiting called someone to prepare food and have a chef come over to cook dinner for them.
While everyone was strolling around the village, the Taoist disciples arrived near Taofeng Village and mingled among the staff delivering ingredients.
After everyone finished dinner, Chu Yiting and his men said they needed to rest for a while and instructed their men to keep an eye on everyone in the village, and to control anyone who tried to go up the mountain.
Of course, making a phone call was impossible, because after the disciples arrived, Senior Brother Lin had people knock on the surrounding area to block the signal, so it was impossible for them to notify Liu Zixing by phone.
With all communication cut off, Senior Brother Lin and the others weren't worried that Liu Zixing would sneak away.
With everything arranged, everyone began to discuss who would go up the mountain and how many people would go. The three Chu brothers, naturally worried about Tang Bao, expressed their intention to go along.
However, Senior Brother Lin did not want them to go with him, as they would become a burden to him, even more worthless than Lin Qinghua, who was still in kindergarten.
At least Lin Qinghua has some mystical arts and skills, which the three Chu brothers don't.
Senior Brother Lin bluntly expressed his disdain, "You have no magical abilities whatsoever. Going there will only be a burden to Tang Bao! You'll only be wasting your time!"
The three Chu brothers also wanted to go with Tang Bao, as they were really worried about her safety.
However, Senior Brother Lin's words made them feel embarrassed, and they were even more worried that if they went, they would become a burden to Tang Bao.
