Chapter 76, Village Chief: Hehehe
When they arrived at the archaeological site, Professor Gu and the head of the Su family felt like their old bones were about to fall apart. Luo Zhenxuan helped them get off the electric tricycle, one in front and one behind.
Kong Xiyan got out of the car with her long legs and pointed to a place not far away: "That's where the burial pit was discovered yesterday."
Hearing Kong Xiyan say this, the two elders immediately ignored their numb buttocks and supported each other as they walked over there.
"Deputy Captain!" Someone saw Kong Xiyan coming and immediately waved to greet her.
Kong Xiyan also waved her hand.
"Little Village Chief Kong!" The Cheng siblings finally waited for Kong Xiyan. They rushed to her side and said, "Little Village Chief Kong, we have something to discuss with you! It's a big deal! A big project!"
Kong Xiyan glanced at the two of them and said, "It's the last day, and you still want to be lazy?"
"No!" Cheng Yue quickly waved his hand: "Our Cheng family wants to invest in the tourism resort industry here!"
Hearing Cheng Yue say this, Luo Zhenxuan, who was walking in front, stopped.
It was only after he came here that he realized that this was the location of the North City project he had invested in before!
"You're late. Someone had already invested in this tourism project before you came to film." Kong Xiyan waved her hand, then looked at the two of them with her beautiful eyes: "However, if you want to invest in something else... it's not impossible..."
"What?" Cheng Ze immediately raised his chin: "Money is not a problem!"
Kong Xiyan made an OK gesture and said, "This is the ruins of the Ancient Domain Mystery City. A museum will definitely be built here in the future. If you really want to invest, I suggest you cooperate with the local government and participate in the investment of the Ancient Domain Mystery City Museum. Having the government take the lead will save you trouble later and will also help to raise the Cheng family's brand awareness. If you are interested, I can help you contact them."
"Okay, then bring my brother along!" Cheng Ze turned around and called Zhong Qihan and his sister over.
Seeing Zhong Qihan walking past, Chu Lizheng curled the corners of his mouth downwards and immediately followed him. When he got closer, he asked with a smile: "What are you talking about? You look so happy? Add me in!"
This is the last day of filming, he can't give Zhong Qi Han another chance to steal the show!
If anyone wants to be in the spotlight, it should be him!
"Let's talk about participating in the investment in the Ancient Domain Mysterious City Museum." Cheng Ze didn't beat around the bush as much as Chu Lizheng did, and said directly: "My sister and I can invest 50 million, and Zhong Qihan can also invest 50 million."
"No problem." Zhong Qihan was also very interested in the project of the Ancient Domain Mysterious City Museum.
This can also be regarded as a commemoration of the first time he brought his sister to participate in the program, and it is a memory exclusive to them as siblings. Of course, it would be better if Kong Xiyan was not there!
After hearing Zhong Qihan's reply, Cheng Ze looked at Chu Lizheng again: "Do you want to vote too?"
Chu Lizheng's mouth twitched. "Fifty million! Even if I sold him, he wouldn't be worth fifty million! Do you really think everyone is born with a silver spoon in their mouth? Does Cheng Ze want to listen to what he's saying?"
"No, I don't know much about investment, so forget it." Chu Lizheng's smile was bitter. He glanced at Kong Xiyan and asked again, "Village Chief Kong, aren't you going to invest? This project should be very beneficial to the village, right?"
Chu Lizheng felt that he couldn't let anyone know that he was the only poor person!
Isn't Kong Xiyan known for her straightforwardness? Then just admit that she's broke!
"Forget about the museum. I'm planning to build a public library in the village, and the site should be right next to the museum." Kong Xiyan touched her chin and said, "I can offer 450,000 yuan."
"Then I'll also contribute 450,000." Cheng Yue looked at Zhong Yangyang: "You also contribute 450,000?"
"Okay." Zhong Yangyang looked at Kong Xiyan. She was willing to support whatever her sister wanted to do.
Chu Lizheng's face looked extremely ugly. He hated these bastards who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths!
Chu Lizheng rolled his eyes, as if remembering something, and deliberately said, "Come to think of it, Teacher Zhong and Young Master Cheng gave Village Chief Xiao Kong over 400,000 yuan for food alone."
Kong Xiyan is so shameless that she uses other people's money to do charity to make herself look good!
"Yeah." Kong Xiyan shrugged nonchalantly. "And then there's the 70,000 yuan the Cheng brothers and sisters gave me for accommodation, which makes a total of 480,000 yuan. After deducting the costs of repairs, compensation, and food, there's exactly 450,000 yuan left."
Chu Lizheng didn't expect Kong Xiyan to admit it so bluntly. The corners of his mouth twitched as he put on a subtle expression: "Isn't this just using Master Cheng and Teacher Zhong's money for charity? This... isn't a good idea, is it?"
"I think so too." Cheng Yue frowned.
"Indeed." Cheng Ze also nodded.
Seeing the Cheng brothers and sisters agreeing with him, Chu Lizheng's eyes lit up. Just as he was about to continue, he heard Cheng Ze say, "When I transferred the money, I marked it as a voluntary donation. Village Chief Xiao Kong can keep the money. At worst, I can donate another 450,000 yuan and sign it as Village Chief Xiao Kong!"
"Yeah." Cheng Yue echoed, "It's not easy for Village Chief Xiao Kong to make some money, so just keep it for yourself!"
Zhong Yangyang held Kong Xiyan's hand and shook it gently: "I'll just pay my sister's share."
It’s so hard for her sister to earn some money. She has to work part-time jobs everywhere. How hard it is!
"That's nothing." Kong Xiyan smiled and said, "Although I'm only acting as the village chief for a few days, I still want to do more for the village.
Money is something outside of your body. You can’t bring it with you when you are born and you can’t take it with you when you die. Just donate it.
I'll find another part-time job and make the money back."
As she spoke, Kong Xiyan glanced at Luo Zhenxuan who was not far ahead.
The corner of Luo Zhenxuan's eyes twitched. Oh no, they're coming for him!
Are you planning to make money back from him?
Although he was stunned and speechless for a moment, Luo Zhenxuan felt relieved when he thought that the investment in the tourism and vacation project in the Ancient Domain Mystery City was due to Kong Xiyan's advice that he would have good fortune this month.
If you want to invest now, 30 million is definitely not enough. Even if you offer 100 million, you may not be able to grab an investment spot!
Forget it, the last thing he lacks now is money.
There's nothing wrong in making this little money-grubber a little happier.
At this moment, Luo Zhenxuan didn't notice that his usually cold eyes became much gentler when they fell on Kong Xiyan.
Kong Xiyan was still painting a rosy picture for the Cheng brothers and sisters: "When the time comes, there must be a high-definition photo of you two hanging in the main hall on the first floor of the museum and library! Everyone who comes to visit can see it!"
The eyes of the Cheng brothers and sisters lit up, what a great relationship they have!
"Also, I have thought of a name for the library building. How about calling it the [Zhongcheng Public Reading Building]?" Kong Xiyan nodded with satisfaction.
"Well..." The Cheng siblings exchanged a glance, and then Cheng Ze spoke. He first said to Zhong Qihan, "Brother, I don't mean anything else!" Then he looked at Kong Xiyan and said, "How about this, I'll add another 500,000 yuan. Can it be changed to [Cheng Zhong]?"
"Is this about money?" Kong Xiyan glared at him unhappily: "[Zhongcheng] means unity of purpose, representing the wonderful memories of everyone working together and uniting in these days!
Cheng Zhong: What's going on? A load-bearing wall? Didn't you see I didn't even add the word "Kong"?
Hearing Kong Xiyan say this, Cheng Ze fell silent. After all, what she said was not wrong. They both paid money, but Kong Xiyan didn't get a single word. If he continued to care about this matter, it would be a bit inappropriate.
"Then let's go with [Zhongcheng]. Unity is strength, that's great!" Cheng Yue smoothed things over for his brother and nodded.
The brother and sister were once again easily controlled by Kong Xiyan.
Chu Lizheng felt like an outsider. He watched them chatting happily but he couldn't fit in at all. The expression on his face became more and more unsightly.
These people are just lucky people born in the lottery, why are they targeting him like this? They look down on him!
Just watch! Even if he has to resort to any means necessary, he will become the best and make everyone who looks down on him regret it!
The lunch meal was very sumptuous, with many large tables lined up at the entrance of the village. Not only filming guests, archaeological team members, and program staff, but even villagers joined in.
The camera was also fixed there to record the joy and liveliness of this afternoon!
A black sedan pulled up at the village entrance. The village chief, who had finally returned from a meeting, was stunned when he saw this scene. Then a bright smile broke out on his face. "It seems the villagers missed me so much! They even set up a special banquet just to welcome me! How embarrassing!"
Village Chief: Hehehe.
The village chief stepped forward with a smile, but was about to speak when the villagers called out enthusiastically, "Village chief, why are you back?"
"Hmm?" The smile on the village chief's face froze.
"I didn't even tell you in advance." Another villager pointed and said, "Just go over there and sit at the same table with the kids!"
"Huh?" The village chief was completely stunned. What? He was at the same table with the kid?
"Hurry up, Village Chief Xiao Kong is going to speak, please don't make trouble!" Several villagers pushed the village chief to sit at the table with the children.
The village chief looked at the children at the table who were staring at him with wide eyes and fell silent.
Village Chief: No, haha.
