396 Hope

Seeing this, Lin Bi’s two sons hurriedly went forward and said to their mother in dissatisfaction, “Mom, stop angering everyone. If our family is really ostracized, you can live by yourself!”

When Lin Bi saw that everyone was expressing their dissatisfaction with her, she didn’t dare to say anything else and stood at the side with her head lowered.

Usually, when she caused trouble, it was usually because the two families had a conflict. Now that she was facing so many people, even if her sons didn’t say anything, she didn’t dare to go against them. After all, she and her two sons still had to live in the village. If she went against the entire village and was ostracized, her sons would really abandon her.

Seeing this, Yu Bing and Xiao Sheng exchanged looks and smiled. There were no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. As long as everyone’s goals and interests were the same, the problem would resolve on its own.

Seeing that everyone wanted to sell flour, the village chief became even more anxious.

If this matter was exposed, the commoners could avoid being punished by the higher-ups. However, as the village chief, he definitely couldn’t avoid punishment for covering up for a crime. Even if he had contributed to the village previously, he would definitely lose his position as the village chief.

“I’m warning you, you guys are not allowed to sell it! If you don’t listen, bear the consequences!”

Then, he turned around and said to Mr. Wang, Yu Bing, and Xiao Sheng in front of everyone, “Wang Chong, return the flour to whoever sold it to you now. I’ll get them to return the money. The two of you, take the money and leave quickly! Pretend that this didn’t happen. Otherwise, I’ll report you guys!”

As soon as she said this, the families who had already sold the flour and obtained the money were unwilling to accept. Who was willing to return the money?

Yu Bing, who had finally collected more than a thousand pounds of flour, was naturally unwilling to give up. She said to everyone, “I don’t know who owns the flour I collected, but to sell food for money means that they’re definitely short of money. Everyone has worked hard for an entire year…”

“Stop talking, do you hear me?!” The village chief stopped her anxiously.

Xiao Sheng immediately stopped the village chief with a smile. “Don’t be anxious. If we’re wrong, no one will be tempted and there’s no need for you to be anxious. If we hit the nail on the head, it’s useless even if you’re anxious. You can’t stop us.”

The village chief was led astray by Xiao Sheng’s words.

Yu Bing took the opportunity to run to the villagers and continue to goad them. “You also know that when it comes to dividends, you guys can only earn two to three hundred yuan at most, and worst case scenario, you guys can only earn one to two hundred yuan. Which family doesn’t have people who get headaches and fevers? You guys also need to buy wedding gifts. Our food factory didn’t go to any other village, but here instead.”

A voice sounded from the crowd. “Looks like we can only watch everyone else earn money. Our family doesn’t have any excess flour to sell. We don’t even have enough to eat!”

“Flour is a staple food after all. My boys are still growing and eat a lot, so I don’t dare to sell flour even if I lack money.”

When Yu Bing heard this, she realized that these dissenters were a threat and that she had to pull them into the same boat.

“Our factory also needs a lot of various raw materials. The factory plans to make sweet potato products. Every family plants them, right? Therefore, it’s fine if some families don’t have flour to sell this time. We can cooperate next time. The food factory also has to constantly develop new products, so there will eventually be a time when what we want is what you guys have!”

Although she sounded like she was lying, people needed hope. Life was already so tough, so if there was no hope at all, life would be even more difficult.

Therefore, when everyone heard this, even if they couldn’t cooperate this time, they no longer felt sad. Instead, they gained more trust in Yu Bing.

Now that the situation was favorable, as Xiao Sheng blocked the village chief, he turned around and said, “Don’t worry. We’re a legitimate manufacturer and we’re not selling what we bought! We can promise everyone again that after we buy them from you guys, we’ll take them back and produce them directly. We won’t sell them on the black market! Therefore, in a sense, we’re not going anything illegal.”
