Chapter 336: Three hundred and thirty-five, made another sum_1

"You, you..."

Ji Changming was rendered speechless by the other party’s words.

It was clear that as the second elder of the Ji Family, Ji Changming had never really suffered from childhood.

Furthermore, since the Ji Family had been in business for generations, he had virtually no understanding of farming.

Although he knew that Boss Gu had contracted land in the village and was planning to sell grain,

the goods he had hastily purchased

were all inferior products that others had been stuck with in their warehouses, unable to sell for years.

Plus, that man surnamed Hu had been in the grain business for years,

so why would he be willing to sell Ji Changming’s junk just to save a bit of money?

"Boss Gu, I think we should quickly proceed with the weighing,"

said the man named Hu, turning his head towards Boss Gu with an eager expression.

Boss Gu naturally responded with a smiling face and a slight nod of his head.

He thought to himself that indeed, the good things grown with Spirit Spring Water really had no trouble selling.

After his approval, the surrounding villagers also began bustling about busily.

By the time all the grain had been weighed, Boss Gu’s net income from this transaction alone had reached one hundred and forty-eight thousand yuan.

Although it was less per unit compared to the income from the fruit store, his investment here was minor.

Compared to the initial phase of opening a store, with buying a property and decorating, then spending a lot on marketing,

contracting land in the village was extremely cheap, and his parents as well as Tian Laosì managed it on a daily basis.

Boss Gu himself was very at ease, needing only to occasionally bring some Spirit Spring Water.

Moreover, it was a long-term business; the crops Boss Gu planted could be harvested every three to four months.

Taking this into account, it also amounted to a considerable income.

Boss Gu stood on the ridge, stretching out his hand to receive the money that the man surnamed Hu passed over.

In those days, even ten-thousand-yuan households were rare; seeing an amount of over a hundred thousand in one go, many of the surrounding villagers nearly popped their eyes out.

Ji Changming, who had been standing by the whole time, saw the transaction conclude.

His triangle-shaped eyes stared venomously at Boss Gu, his heart itching with hatred.

Boss Gu was in a rather good mood at this time and saw his fellow villagers looking at him with eager eyes.

He then directly drew out eight thousand yuan and handed it to Tian Laosì standing beside him, instructing,

"Uncle Tian, the villagers have been busy with the grain harvest, so you handle this.

Let’s settle the wages right now today, and if there’s any left over,

use it to organize a few banquet tables in the village. Consider it a reward for their hard work today from me, Boss Gu."

No sooner had he spoken than the villagers on site erupted with cheers.

Joy beamed on everyone’s face as they praised Boss Gu for being generous.

After all, when these farmers worked outside,

every boss looked for ways to underpay them.

If life got too difficult and they wanted to advance some funds for living expenses,

they would have to grovel, sweet-talking and acting submissive just to get it.

Being able to settle wages monthly was already considered good.

If they encountered even greedier bosses, it was possible for wages to be delayed for half a year or even a year.

In contrast, working for Boss Gu and getting paid was very satisfying.

Not only were payments in cash and settled immediately, but there was never any delay, and even after the work was done,

there would be a banquet to enjoy. A boss as good as this was truly hard to find.

With this in mind, the villagers’ respect and affection for Boss Gu rose even higher.

They even felt a sense of pride in being from the same village as Boss Gu.

"Hahaha... President Gu is truly generous, well done!"

"That’s right, we might not have much, but we sure have the muscle power, President Gu, don’t forget us next time."

"Boss Gu, you’re really too kind, if there’s any work in the future just give the orders!"

The people present couldn’t help but praise him one after another.

Hearing President Gu’s previous words, Tian Laosì immediately agreed with a big smile on his face.

"Alrighty, please go ahead, I’ll go arrange it right away."

Then he turned around to call the villagers to line up for their wages.

The man named Hu stood by with a smile on his face, feeling fortunate about having done business with President Gu before.

After all, dealing with such a rule-abiding person made him very happy too.

Then his eyes inevitably fell upon the neatly stacked bundles of lush green stubble in the field.

Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he immediately reached out to grab President Gu, asking with anticipation.

"Boss Gu, about these corn stalks in your field, do you have any other plans for them?"

Hearing this question, President Gu was momentarily stunned; he’d been fixated on the grains all this time.

As for what to do with the piles of corn stalks, he hadn’t given it much thought.

But from what was implied, it seemed like even those could be put to use?

"Usually in the village, we dry these things to use as firewood, or bury them in the ground as compost.

Does Boss Hu have some other need for them?" President Gu asked with some confusion.

As soon as Hu heard President Gu say this, he couldn’t help but slap his thigh anxiously.

"What a waste, you’re really squandering resources here!"

With that, he hastily grabbed President Gu’s hand and explained with excitement.

"Boss Gu, to be honest with you, I have a cousin who’s in the business of processing silage.

And what he needs most now is the kind of tender green stalks from your field.

These are excellent materials for making high-quality feed, how could you possibly use them for firewood?

Since it seems you don’t need them, here’s what we’ll do, I’ll offer you an extra forty thousand yuan.

Just sell me all of these corn stalks from your field, too."

However, upon hearing this, Ji Changming next to him was also shocked.

He hadn’t expected even a bunch of useless stalks to be so valuable to President Gu.

Then he remembered he still had several carts of grain lying around.

He certainly couldn’t allow President Gu to keep making money like this.

The next second, he rushed forward and said.

"Say, Boss Hu, it’s just about making feed, and I’ve got several carts of grain here,

which is much better than President Gu’s lousy stalks, and I’ll only charge you thirty thousand.

But there’s one condition, you can’t buy his grain anymore, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, the man named Hu couldn’t help but laugh out loud at Ji Changming.

Then, without a second thought, he spat on the ground in front of him.

Thoroughly annoyed, he cursed.

"Buy your crap? Where did you come from, you idiot?

Expecting thirty thousand for that pile of junk, just get the hell out of here.

If you come and interrupt my business again, do you believe I’ll have people break your three legs right now?"

As the words were spoken, a group of burly movers with savage grins surrounded Ji Changming.

Seeing this, Ji Changming let out a terrified scream,

and dared not say another word, fleeing with his cronies in utter disarray.
