Chapter 1513 Give Us an Explanation
Zhao Liu had not even considered these things. Who would have thought that Qiao Mei would decide to reject the seeds from their village? This woman was so ruthless! She really had a way with things, being able to buy 10 tons from somewhere else without anyone's knowledge!
"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Zhao Liu wanted to blame all of this on Zhao Fei but Zhao Fei would not stand for it. He had long expected such a day to come.
"I've already said it a long time ago. You're the one who doesn't believe me, so how can you blame me? Besides, I don't have any land in the village and I didn't grow even one seed. Why should I get involved? I haven't even blamed you for making me lose my job!" Zhao Fei said eloquently.
Zhao Liu knew that he was in the wrong and had nothing to say to defend himself. He could only pick up the big stick and try to hit Zhao Fei, chasing Zhao Fei all the way to the courtyard door. At this moment, everyone was rushing towards Zhao Liu's house, wanting to demand an explanation from him.
"Zhao Liu! You deserve a thousand cuts! Why are you hitting the kid!" Auntie Zhuang roared as she stood at Zhao Liu's door with her hands on her hips.
Auntie Zhuang was the most righteous person in this village. She was a person who valued fairness and justice. Many people would ask Auntie Zhuang for help when they signed contracts or needed a witness present. They would then give Auntie Zhuang some gifts or money to express their gratitude.
In addition, Auntie Zhuang was tall and well built. In her own words, if she got into a fight, she could kill someone just by sitting on them! Who would dare to bully her!
"It's none of your business! Just mind your own business!" Zhao Liu said indignantly.
"I must get involved today! You didn't allow us to sell the seeds earlier, but now they don't want even half a pound anymore! You have to give us an explanation!" Auntie Zhuang questioned.
"Why should I be responsible? I only gave all of you a suggestion. It's up to you whether you want to take it or not. Since you're the ones who decide what you want to do, why are you blaming me?" Zhao Liu said.
Auntie Zhuang was an impatient person who was not eloquent so she could not win against Zhao Liu in an argument. She was so upset that she stomped her feet and wished that she could go up and tear Zhao Liu apart. She could not fall for his trick. The last time she quarreled with Zhao Liu, she accidentally hit him. Zhao Liu fell on the ground and insisted that it was her fault for hurting him, refusing to let her go.
She had no choice but to bring Zhao Liu to the clinic for a full-body checkup. She had to spend more than 50 dollars on him before he let her off. The seeds were not sold yet, so she could not act rashly.
"Auntie Zhuang, it's useless for us to talk to him here! Let's go and look for the village chief! He will definitely uphold justice for us!" someone in the crowd said.
All of them made their way to the village office to look for Zhao Kuo. They realized that they were considered the latecomers! There were already many people waiting at the entrance of the village office.
After the seeds were harvested, they were all put away for safekeeping. Qiao Mei had rented a warehouse space in the village to keep all the seeds. In order to prevent the Zhao family from falsifying the quantity, Qiao Mei even arranged for her own people to guard the warehouse. She had spent a lot of money on all this!
Even if they wanted to steal the seeds and find another way to sell them, it would be a difficult task. If they were discovered by the people guarding the warehouse, they would have to go to jail!
"Village Chief! You have to find a solution for us! If this continues, we won't be able to survive! Back then, you were the one who asked us to grow seeds and not to plant anything else. Now that we can't sell the seeds, what should we do!" Auntie Zhuang sat on the steps at the door and cried loudly.
Many people followed her example and wept loudly. Zhao Kuo did not dare to go out at all. He did not expect to have to go through such a thing at his age. It was all Zhao Liu's fault for being so incompetent!
Zhao Kuo walked out of the house shakily and said, "I have heard what everyone said. Can one of you go to Zhao Liu's house and ask Zhao Fei to come over. He knows the factory director and might be able to find a way!"
Auntie Zhuang immediately asked her son to go and look for Zhao Fei. At the moment, Zhao Fei was still getting beaten up at home! Zhao Fei had long made a decision. He now had enough money to buy a small house in the capital. After this matter was over, he would split from the family! He would never work in this village again!
Even if he did not go into business again, did he not hear that people could make a lot of money by working at Qiao Mei's factory? There was always a way to survive!
