210: Chapter 210 Wu Kexin Comes to the Fore 210: Chapter 210 Wu Kexin Comes to the Fore Wu Kexin glanced at the effeminate man and then at Chen Yang.

“You know this person from the Gu Family?”

Wu Kexin asked Chen Yang.

Chen Yang gave a cold smile, “I wouldn’t say we know each other, we’ve just had a bit of a minor interaction.

That’s all.”

“Haha, yes, Village Chief Wu, this young brother and I have had some interactions.

I admire him quite a bit and have always wanted to get to know him.

I never expected to meet him here today.

What a twist of fate!”

The effeminate man laughed and took the initiative to come up and speak.

Wu Kexin, not knowing what had transpired between the two, really thought they had a good impression of each other based on what they said.

“I see, that makes things easier.

The land in the village is contracted to Chen Yang.

If you would like it, just discuss it with Chen Yang.

I have no authority to interfere,” Wu Kexin said with a smile.

The effeminate man nodded with a smile, “Good, then thank you, Village Chief Wu.”

Having said that, the effeminate man immediately turned to Chen Yang and extended his hand, wanting to shake hands with him.

“Nice to meet you, young brother.

My name is Gu Ming!”

The effeminate man’s face was full of sincere smiles, as if he truly was amiable and honestly wanted to befriend Chen Yang.

If it weren’t for the fact that Chen Yang was familiar with the Gu Family’s tactics and had personally witnessed Gu Ming’s methods, he might have been deceived by him.

However, Chen Yang not only understood the Gu Family’s ways but also knew that Gu Ming had come for the gold mine, so naturally, he was not going to be swayed by him.

Chen Yang furrowed his brows and said with slight impatience, “Let’s skip the pleasantries, Young Master Gu.

Just tell me, what are your terms for acquiring my land?”

Chen Yang’s straightforward words made Gu Ming lose face.

His extended arm hung awkwardly in the air.

Gu Ming’s heart filled with rage, which could be seen through small details on his face.

Gu Ming fell silent for two or three seconds, then the smile vanished from his face.

“Since the young brother here is so straightforward, I won’t beat around the bush either.

I’ll just say it.

I’m willing to purchase your piece of land at double the price you paid for the lease,” Gu Ming said, visibly displeased.

In his opinion, Chen Yang was just a strong peasant, and offering him double the price would surely seal the deal.

Little did he know, Chen Yang was already well aware of the land’s value.

And even if he weren’t aware of the land’s value, Chen Yang wouldn’t sell it to him!

So, after Gu Ming stated his terms, Chen Yang didn’t even consider it.

He shook his head directly, “Not for sale.”

“Not for sale?”

Gu Ming’s eyes widened, clearly surprised.

“Yes, not for sale.

I have big plans for that land.

No matter how much you offer, I won’t sell it,” Chen Yang said emotionlessly.

Gu Ming had been suppressing his temper all this while.

If it had been anyone else acting as arrogantly as him, he would have lost his temper long ago.

But seeing that his friendly approach and high offer were both ineffective, he couldn’t hold back any longer.

It was as if he had become a completely different person all of a sudden.

His face instantly turned frosty.

“Young brother, you should be very clear about my identity and the strength of my Gu Family.

That I can speak to you nicely and make a generous offer is already giving you a lot of face.

Are you sure you want to be so ungrateful?” Gu Ming said, his face full of coldness.

His tone was filled with threat.

Wu Kexin originally had a good impression of Gu Ming.

Because he had spoken to Chen Yang in a cordial manner.

But this threatening tone immediately changed her view.

“Young Master Gu!

Transactions are about willingness on both sides.

Are you threatening a villager in front of me?” Wu Kexin said coldly.

As soon as Wu Kexin spoke up, the expression on Gu Ming’s face changed at once.

“No, Village Chief Wu, don’t misunderstand me.

I, Gu Ming, have always been known for my integrity.

I was just kindly helping the young brother here to weigh the pros and cons,” Gu Ming said with a forced smile, trying to explain.

Wu Kexin gave Gu Ming a stern look and did not say anything more.

Instead, he turned his head to look at Chen Yang, “Chen Yang, do you really not want to transfer that plot of land?”

Chen Yang nodded resolutely, “That’s right, I won’t sell that land.”

“Understood.”

Wu Kexin nodded, then turned her head abruptly, addressing Gu Ming, “Young Master Gu, since Chen Yang has decided not to sell, there’s nothing more to be said.

Thank you for making the long trip here.”

With a cold expression, Wu Kexin made a gesture for them to leave.

Seeing Wu Kexin’s decisive action, Chen Yang was stunned at that moment.

He hadn’t expected Wu Kexin to have this side to her.

Gu Ming’s face turned ashen when he heard what she said.

However, he seemed somewhat wary of Wu Kexin,

and although he was very angry inside, he didn’t dare to say much more.

“Well done, you are Chen Yang, right?

Just you wait!”

Last but not least, he gritted his teeth and threw out a threat at Chen Yang before turning and walking away with his men.

Watching Gu Ming and his group leave, Chen Yang smiled.

“I never expected it, Chief, for you to have such a swift and decisive side.

Really impressive.”

Chen Yang gave a thumbs up as he spoke.

With an exasperated roll of her eyes, Wu Kexin replied to Chen Yang.

“He was threatening you right in front of me, how could I not act decisively?

Or should I just watch him bully you because of his family’s power?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang felt a warmth in his heart, looked at Wu Kexin with a smile, and didn’t say much more.

“By the way, do you have some history with the Gu family?

Why do you have such an aversion to Gu Ming?”

Wu Kexin suddenly asked.

When Chen Yang first arrived, she thought through the dialogue between the two that Chen Yang and Gu Ming had a mutual liking.

But from their later conversations, it was clear that there was some minor conflict between them.

Faced with Wu Kexin’s question, Chen Yang didn’t hide anything.

He recounted in full the incident where Gu Ming had kidnapped Li Han.

After listening to Chen Yang’s story, Wu Kexin understood why he was so averse to Gu Ming.

“So that’s how it is.

I didn’t expect the Gu family to resort to such despicable tactics.”

Wu Kexin spoke with disdain.

She felt disgusted by the actions of the Gu family.

“Exactly, that’s why I didn’t want to sell the land to them,” Chen Yang nodded and said.

“You did the right thing not to sell to them.

The Gu family acts very despicably.

Who knows what they would do if they got their hands on that land,” Wu Kexin nodded and then began to tidy up the table as if preparing to leave the place.

It seemed she was getting ready to leave.

Chen Yang had intended to take his leave directly, but seeing that Wu Kexin was also about to go, he simply stood and waited for a while.

It wasn’t long before Wu Kexin had packed up everything.

And she left the office together with Chen Yang.

The two chatted idly for a while, discussing the affairs of the Gu family and the land that Chen Yang had contracted.

When Wu Kexin inquired about what made that piece of land different enough for the Gu family to want it, Chen Yang didn’t keep it secret.

He openly revealed the extraordinary nature of that land.

“Chief, there is a vein of ore beneath that plot of land, which is why the Gu family is so anxious to have it,” Chen Yang said, his face calm.

“A vein of ore?

How did you know that?”

Wu Kexin’s face showed surprise.

“A few nights ago, the Gu family had come to Willow River Village, bringing with them many detection tools and heading up the mountain.

I happened to see them and followed.

I heard it from their conversation,” Chen Yang explained.

Wu Kexin was sharp, and immediately it dawned on her why Chen Yang had been so desperate to contract that land that day.

“I see, that’s why you were suddenly so set on taking over that land at all costs.

It turns out there’s no getting up early without a profit,” Wu Kexin said with a laugh covering her mouth.

Suddenly being teased, Chen Yang was somewhat at a loss for words.
