Chapter 1505: Scene of Social Suicide

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Soon, Zhao Na arranged for people to set up a temporary workplace and began to work.

At the same time, the bank’s armored truck arrived. Boxes of cash were sent to Zhao Na’s side to facilitate the good collection.

Li Zhangfa and the others queued up one after another and reported their grain production. Even so, the other party did not do too thorough a verification. After calculating the numbers, they gave the money to Li Zhangfa. The entire process lasted less than three minutes and was very efficient.

Seeing Li Zhangfa take the money and leave, the people who were standing beside Gao Dexi and preparing to sell the food to him were all dumbfounded. They rushed forward like a swarm of bees, but they were stopped by the armed bank guards.

“Are you really grain collectors? Are you lying?”

Zhang Bin took out his work pa.s.s.

“Do you think this is a joke?”

“Besides, is it that important who we are? As long as we pay you according to the amount specified, there shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

Everyone was stunned, unable to say anything.

He was right.

As long as they were paid, nothing else mattered.

Money was more persuasive than anything else.

“But the public grain collection price in the city is not as high as your price. Aren’t you afraid of losing money?”

“We mainly collect grain reserves, not takeout. This matter is not about money.”

“Then why did you offer such a high price? There’s no price this high in all of Huaxia.”

“How can you say that? It’s just that the quality of food in the south is not high, so the price is lower. When we collect grain in the northeast, this is the price we offer.” Zhang Bin said.

“Secondly, we have a personal relationship with Director Lin, so we are offering the premium rate. Naturally, it’ll be much higher than the market price.”

After hearing Zhang Bin’s explanation, everyone finally understood what was going on.

It turned out that he was here because of Director Lin.

Moreover, they were charged according to the price of premium grain!

Where else could they find such a good opportunity?

“We’ll sell too, we’ll sell too!”

The people who were criticizing Li Zhangfa just now were all shouting and wanting to sell their grain to Zhang Bin.

Since the other party offered a high price, they naturally had to sell to them.

“I’m sorry, your names aren’t on the list 1 received, so 1 won’t take your grain.”

Subconsciously, everyone looked at Lin Yi with desire in their eyes.

“It’s useless even if you look at me. You’re the ones who said that you’re not selling. Go find someone else to sell the food too.”

Everyone’s expressions fell.

They even wanted to die.

“You keep saying that others are liars, but I think the two of you are the liars!”

“I…”

Gao Dexi and Zhou Feng were speechless.

“d.a.m.n it, they’re the real liars. Beat them up!”

The villagers who had yet to sell their grain rushed towards the three of them. The three of them were so frightened that they hurriedly got into their cars, afraid that they would be beaten up.

“President Zhang, you guys can contact my colleagues for the subsequent procedures. 1 still have other matters to attend to, so I won’t be staying here to accompany you.”

“Alright, alright, alright. Director Lin, go ahead. Just leave someone behind to help us.”

Zhang Bin knew from his superiors that Lin Yi’s ident.i.ty was extraordinary, so he was very polite.

“You’ve worked hard.”

“You should.”

Before leaving, Lin Yi gave Li Sijin a few more instructions.

His main purpose was to ensure she received these people well. He did not want her to be stingy.

After settling the matters in Dongsan County, Lin Yi drove back to Zhonghai with Ji Qingyan.

“We’re finally home,” Ji Qingyan said casually.

But when she entered, Lin Yi stopped her at the door.

“What are you standing here for? Why don’t you come in?” Ji Qingyan urged.

“Why do 1 feel that our family is different from before?”

“Uh… how is it different? Isn’t this good?”

Even Ji Qingyan noticed the difference, let alone Lin Yi.

She cursed at He Yuanyuan in his heart for a long time. Why didn’t she help her return everything to its original state?

“I feel like something has been moved in the house. Could there be a thief?”

“How is that possible? This is Jiuzhou Pavilion. There are security guards patrolling the area all day. How could anyone break in?”

Lin Yi also felt that this was unlikely, but many of the things at home seemed to have been moved.

“Mr. and Mrs. Lin, you’re back.”

Just as the two of them were discussing the situation at home, two patrolling security guards stood at the door and greeted them with a smile.

“Thanks, 1 just got home.”

Lin Yi responded with a smile. Although there was a huge difference in their statuses, their relationship was very good.

Lin Yi would even lend them his sports car for them to take photos, and he even arranged for someone to provide a wedding car for one of the security guards, so they always exchanged greetings when they met.

“Mrs. Lin, aren’t you moving? Is there anything else you need our help with?”

The security guard’s words slipped out of his mouth, instantly turning the scene into one of social suicide.

Ji Qingyan was so embarra.s.sed that she could not show her face. For a long time, her brain was short-circuiting.

Ji Qingyan was so embarra.s.sed that she could die. She was too ashamed to face anyone.

If she had known that such a thing would happen, she wouldn’t have asked them to help yesterday. They had sold her out at the most critical moment.

“Moving?”

Lin Yi turned to look at Ji Qingyan. “Why did you move out for no reason?”

“Don’t listen to their nonsense. It’s just that there were too many things in the house. I packed up a lot of clothes that I wasn’t wearing as well as some useless things and threw them away. 1 wasn’t moving.”

Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully. “No wonder 1 felt that the things at home have been touched. So it turns out you were spring cleaning.”

“That’s right.”

Ji Qingyan combed her hair to ease her awkwardness.

“I had nothing to do yesterday, so 1 tidied up the house. 1 didn’t expect there to be so many useless things, so I called a car to dispose of everything.”

“Then why didn’t you say anything when I asked you just now?”

“Uh…” Ji Qingyan’s eyes flickered as her mind raced. “My memory hasn’t been too good recently, so I forgot about it.”

With that, Ji Qingyan quickly pushed Lin Yi into the house in an attempt to divert his attention.

“Are you thirsty? I’ll get you some water.”

“No.”

“Are you hungry? I’ll cook for you.”

“Nope.”

“You must be tired after driving for hours. Why don’t you go get some sleep?”

“I’m not tired.”

Lin Yi had no intention of giving up. He looked at Ji Qingyan with a burning gaze.

“I think there’s something fishy about this.”

“I was just cleaning up. What’s so strange about it?”

“If you were really just throwing things out, the security guard wouldn’t say that you were moving, right?” Lin Yi said.

“Is it because 1 haven’t been close to you for the past few days that you think I cheated on you and decided to move? That’s probably also why He Yuanyuan tried to resign in a fit of anger. However, she was so angry that she wanted to go to Dongsan County to clarify things with me. That’s why yesterday’s scene happened.

“Am I right?”
