Mr. Pei kicked me out of the house.
Jiang Lin rolled up the car window, and a burst of laughter rang out from inside the car. Everyone applauded and cheered for Chuzhe: "Brother Xu, your trick is amazing!"
Song Yifan did the math: "We gave up 2,000 yuan as a deposit and didn't pay the rent, so the boss still made a small profit of a few hundred yuan, but our losses were minimized. Brother Xu is awesome!"
Jiang Lin patted his shoulder and said jokingly, "Evildoers will be punished by their own evildoers."
Pei Xu raised his eyebrows and said, "I'll take it as a compliment."
Li Xuran asked: "Brother Xu, how can you be sure that the boss will give in?"
"I'm not sure whether we are responsible for the machine breaking down, but when the boss agreed to refund 2,000 yuan, I was sure that there was something wrong with the machine itself. The boss just took advantage of the money that was already in his pocket and took as much as he could. If the machine's responsibility was ours, the boss would definitely lie on the ground and pull down our pants and not let us leave."
Cheng Enyue said with a smile: "If he could do this, he would probably have to put up a banner and hire a few people to parade around the streets before coming to Peijia Village to find us."
"Then he does it on the first day and I do it on the fifteenth. He counted out the two thousand yuan to me, and I will give him a taste of his own medicine. I calculated that he can still make a small profit of a few hundred yuan."
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "The number one village bully in Peijia Village."
Song Yifan's face turned from sunny to rainy. The thing that every financial officer fears most is approving funds. He scratched his head: "Brother Xu, one acre of land is planted with 600 dark red rose trees, and the unit price of one tree is 6 yuan. The total cost of our 300 acres is 1.08 million yuan. Fifty tea trees are planted on one acre of land, and the unit price of one tree is also 6 yuan, a total of 90,000 yuan. The total price of organic fertilizer and slaked lime before was 415,000 yuan, and the labor cost of hiring villagers was nearly 30,000 yuan. We need to lay ground film next. I compared the prices of several companies on the Internet last night for the worst ground film. The average price is 53 yuan per acre. We have two solutions. One is to rent a film laying machine, and the other is to lay it manually. The price difference is not very large. Do you have a rough budget for the cost of another set of integrated water and fertilizer drip irrigation system covering 300 acres of land?"
The boss also looked worried after hearing the financial accounts. Pei Xu took his account book and scanned it, then sighed: "The budget for a system is between 600,000 and 700,000. When I calculated the accounts, I felt that the money in the card was like running water. A number stayed for a while and then was transferred away. I want to rob a bank."
Jiang Lin kicked the door open and said, "Pei Xu, as a friend, I advise you to stop this project. The initial investment cost is very high, and the rate of return may not be as high as you think. You only have about 1.7 or 8.0 million left in your hand. Please give it back to me. I don't want to lend it to you anymore, and I don't want to watch you jump into the fire pit."
Pei Xu stood up and asked, "Jiang Lin, what do you mean? Withdrawing investment midway?"
Jiang Lin leaned against the door frame and said calmly: "You can also understand it this way. I am the creditor and I have the right to ask for my money back at any time."
Pei Xu sneered: "Young Master Jiang played a good hand. Did you go to Sichuan to learn how to change faces? When I was hesitant, you promised to help me, but now you change your face in the middle of the process."
Song Yifan walked between the two men and advised: "Brothers, what are you doing? Let's sit down and discuss it properly. We are all brothers, why do you have to do this?"
Jiang Lin said earnestly: "Because we are brothers, I don't want to see him lose millions in the end and end up losing everything!"
Pei Xu said angrily: "Then I really want to thank you for thinking of me so much!"
The quarrel between the two attracted several other teenagers to stand silently in the yard and watch. The program crew was also confused by the sudden quarrel, and the director sent several question marks in the work group.
Jiang Lin said calmly: "I am doing this for your own good. I treat you as a brother so I am telling you the truth from my heart."
Cheng Enyue stepped forward and put his arm around Pei Xu's shoulders, comforting him: "Brother Xu, everyone has been very tired recently. Brother Lin may feel that the cost of the initial investment is too high, and he is a little worried about you. Don't take it to heart."
Pei Xu pushed him away impatiently, walked into the yard and shouted, "Don't I have enough pressure? I borrowed the funds to do the project, and I bear all the risks myself. Whether it is a loss or a profit, what does it have to do with you?" He swept his eyes over several teenagers and the staff of the program team, "Instead, you guys used my project to shoot your program. Did I get any benefits from you? You can pay me back, and you can take the homestead I mortgaged! But you can't use my project as material anymore!"
After saying that, Pei Xu took off the microphone in anger, walked forward to grab the photography teacher's camera, put the lens cap on it and turned off their camera.
"Please leave my yard." Pei Xu looked at the staff fiercely and pointed at the gate: "And you guys too." Pei Xu turned to look at the teenagers.
Jiang Lin asked calmly: "Pei Xu, are you serious?"
Pei Xu spread his hands and said indifferently: "I am not serious. Am I playing house with you? Your entire production team is taking advantage of me. I didn't care before because I really regarded you as brothers, but your words just now reminded me that I am not well-off financially. Then I don't want to be a good person anymore. If you want to record the show, you have to show me your sincerity!"
Li Xuran tried to persuade him: "Brother Xu, don't be angry, Brother Lin said those words in a moment of anxiety."
Pei Xu interrupted him: "Jiang Lin is right, I was too emotional before. When it comes to interests, what does emotion matter?"
Xiang Chuzhe asked disappointedly: "Brother Xu, are you really going to kick us out?"
Pei Xu said, "Ah Zhen, I'm serious. Let's talk business. If you want to film a show, you have to show your sincerity and attitude. There's no reason for me to go into debt and do charity for you. If your show makes money or becomes popular and makes a lot of money, then what will I get?"
Jiang Lin said no more, went back to his room to pack his luggage, and without looking back, he pulled his luggage out and glared at the production team, "If you don't leave now, are you waiting for them to throw boiling water on you and drive you away?"
Several teenagers walked out with their suitcases. It started to drizzle. Pei Xu ruthlessly closed the door and the teenagers and the program crew were kicked out.
The program staff and the teenagers stared at each other like a lost dog.
Jiang Lin said angrily: "What's the point of you looking at us? Can the show still be recorded? If not, we will go our separate ways. I will buy my own plane ticket back to Beijing!"
The staff member complained: "Why did you provoke him?"
Jiang Lin was not happy, and said with a sullen face: "You guys got it for free, and now you blame me? Fine, I won't record it, I'm leaving tonight."
Li Xuran also took a few steps forward and said, "Brother Lin is not recording, so I won't record either. There is no pay for this program. I can still do some odd jobs when I go back to pay my rent for next month."
Song Yifan said weakly: "Every day here is tiring." He stretched out his hand: "My hands from playing the piano are now rough and calloused. It's a good thing that we don't record anymore. Now Brother Xu has broken up with us. If we want to continue, it depends on you."
Cheng Enyue shouted, "Let's go to the town and get a ride directly to the city. We all need to go to the city to take a plane home."
The director team roared in the group chat: "What are you still standing there for? Stop them now!"
The staff rushed over, blocked their way and snatched their suitcases, "Brothers, you can't leave! The show has to continue recording!"
Jiang Lin said coldly: "Pei Xu is unwilling to provide you with filming projects and materials. Even if you can find a new place to shoot now, it is disconnected from the previous materials. How good can the ratings be? Should we stay here and waste your time?"
The staff member was anxious and said, "The two directors will be back tonight. We have secured sponsorship. Pei Xu wants our sincerity and attitude. These can be discussed!"
"You are not the director. What you say is not credible. Don't use these tricks to trick us into staying." Xiang Chuzhe tried to take back his suitcase.
The staff quickly showed the chat records of the work group. "Look, these are the promises made by the director himself. How dare we fool you? Brothers, I know you have been very hard-working since the filming of the show. Every one of us has seen it, and we are with you. This show has been filmed for so long and it has condensed everyone's hard work. Can you give me a chance and wait for the director to come back?"
After hearing these heartfelt words, the teenagers reluctantly gave in and sat on the suitcases holding umbrellas and waiting.
Pei Xu opened the door and shouted, "I have removed two cameras. You can come and take them away quickly. For the remaining devices, you can send someone to remove them later. No one will be allowed to wait."
The staff ran over in the rain and pleaded, "Pei Xu, don't be so anxious to dismantle the machine. Our director team has spoken. Once they arrive, we will definitely show our sincerity and care. We will not take advantage of your project for free. Only when everyone is happy can we be happy."
Pei Xu held up her camera hand and said, "Sister, I'm not trying to embarrass you. It's just that you all know everything that happened from beginning to end. I'm under a lot of pressure. You also heard what Jiang Lin said in the yard. I also have my difficulties. I also want to achieve a win-win situation. Your production team has the filming location and materials, and my project also has a publicity outlet, but you didn't show me your sincerity in wanting to create a win-win situation."
The staff assured us again: "We don't play fake games. We have accumulated materials for nearly two months, and the first few episodes have been edited. Our director is about to bring back our first sponsor. If we withdraw at this time, it will not do us any good, so the director promises to have a good talk with you."
Pei Xu took back the camera: "Okay, then I won't dismantle your fixed camera yet and wait for your follow-up."
The two directors were so anxious that they couldn't sleep on the plane, and the on-site staff from Peijia Village kept an eye on the teenagers and their suitcases.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the sky seemed to have a hole in it. Jiang Lin asked impatiently, "Can you guys do it? How long do you want us to wait?"
The staff respectfully invited them to eat in the car. Pei Xu looked at the pouring rain with some worry, and secretly opened the window to peek, but there was no sign of the boys.
"Mr. Jiang, where are you?" Jiang Lin ate while avoiding the camera in the car. He looked at the message and raised his mouth to pretend to be pitiful: "I'm hiding from the rain in a corner outside. Mr. Pei kicked me out of the house. Are you willing to take me in?"
Pei Xu hid in the corner and typed: "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, but the dawn of victory is just around the corner."
