Super Farming Tycoon

263 Gu Qingming’s High Profile!

Hearing that Gu Qingming was not planning to rent their land or hire the villagers to work, many villagers immediately panicked.

To be honest, every family did not rent much land to Gu Qingming.

At most, it was more than an acre. Moreover, not all users rented land to Gu Qingming.

For instance, Shi Zuoliang’s family did not have land in that place. Naturally, it was not within the scope of the tenancy.

After everyone reacted, they glared at Shi Zuoliang.

First, they had to persuade Gu Qingming.

“Little Gu, don’t be angry. We don’t have any other intentions. We just came to ask. Since there’s no such thing, we definitely don’t have any objections.”

“Yes, we’re just here to ask. We’ve already rented this land to you, and it’s voluntarily rented to you. There’s no reason for us to take it back.”

They did not rent much land. It would be worth it to exchange the land for rent and odd jobs.

Now that Gu Qingming had made herself clear, not renting land was a small matter. The biggest problem was that there was no work to do.

A day’s work was sixty to seventy dollars. After ten days, it was six to seven hundred dollars. It was much more valuable than farming.

“That’s right. We’re just here to ask. We don’t mean anything else!” Many villagers said with embarrassed and fawning smiles. “This land has already been rented to you. It’s yours now. We have no objections!”

“It’s all Old Lady Shi’s fault for being nosy. She told me that the land rented out by Shi Bangjian was rented to your family for 5,000 yuan.”

“That’s right. I only heard it from Old Lady Shi. This old woman is really black-hearted. She told us everything clearly. We thought it was true and didn’t confirm it. We came here on impulse.”

“Me too. It’s like I’m possessed.”

“Shi Zuoliang, what kind of mentality is this?” A villager immediately pointed at Shi Zuoliang and said angrily, “You don’t have any land to rent, so you want to make everyone unable to rent land, right?”

Many people reacted and immediately criticized Shi Zuoliang.

“Shi Zuoliang, you’re really vicious. You made everyone wrongly accuse Shi Bangjian and the Shi family with just one guess. What are you thinking?”

…

Gu Qingming watched as the villagers spoke one after another, shirking responsibility and pushing the blame on Old Lady Shi and Shi Zuoliang.

However, only then did Gu Qingming and the Shi family know that Old Lady Shi was involved.

The Shi family was furious with Old Lady Shi.

It seemed that the grudge between the two families was getting deeper.

Shi Dashan and his wife would cause trouble for the Shi family at any time.

The villagers did not understand the truth of the matter that Old Lady Shi, who had secretly instigated and fanned the flames, was the mastermind.

As for Shi Zuoliang, he had the same responsibility.

Hearing the villagers’ apology, Grandpa Shi Tietou said with a dark expression, “Oh, is my family so untrustworthy? Just because someone said something without any substantial evidence, a large group of people came up?”

The villagers’ faces turned red from embarrassment. They thought to themselves that they were indeed rash to cause such a ruckus! They almost offended the Shi family now.” In fact, they were still secretly worried!

If the Shi family really lost their trust in the villagers because of this, would they look for them again when they hired people to work in the future?

Grandpa swept his sharp gaze around and continued, “I’ve told you long ago that this land is not rented by my family. My granddaughter is renting it. Our family is just helping her work. My granddaughter’s family is rich. Her family has millions of assets waiting for her to inherit them. Do we still need everyone to rent this little bit of land? Hmph, Old Lady Shi already has a grudge against my family. You actually believe her words?”

Grandpa sneered. “They can’t wait for my family to suffer. If there’s anything wrong with our family, they can cause a storm in the village. You actually believe her?”

“Second Uncle, don’t be angry. We don’t believe it completely. It’s just that everyone needs to figure out what to do. Besides, a few days ago, many people heard with their own ears that Shi Bangjian wanted to rent his family’s land for a high price Who knew that in less than two days, his family rented the land to you? Look, everyone thought…”

“Alright, then let’s forget about this matter. What about Shi Zuoliang’s words? His words have no basis at all. He actually made all of you wish you could devour our family. Why? Does our family owe everyone?” Shi Tietou said sharply.

Usually, Shi Tietou wouldn’t say this. When he said this, it made him look like he was high and mighty.

Usually, everyone got along quite well and there were no dirty things.

But now, Shi Tietou had to make things clearer.

His family was rich due to the hard work of his children and grandchildren. However, his son-in-law contributed half of the good days in the village.

He would not allow it. The villagers of Stoneback Village were all ungrateful people who would curse even after reaping benefits.

Therefore, some things had to be made clear so that there would not be waves of trouble in the future like what happened today.

After being instigated or urged by someone, they came knocking on his door!

Then, they looked at Shi Zuoliang and said coldly, “Liangzi, you’ve spread rumors about my family! Do you think that you can say a few words without paying any price?”

Shi Zuoliang’s expression changed as he said, “Second Uncle, I didn’t do it on purpose!”

Gu Qingming had already threatened him once with slander, which had already frightened him. Who would have thought that Shi Tietou would threaten him again?

Shi Zuoliang had a bad feeling!

“How can it not be intentional!” Grandpa Shi Tie Tou said coldly, “Shi Zuoliang, do you think my family is too easy to bully? How can we not retaliate when you’ve already bullied us?”

Shi Zuoliang’s expression changed drastically. He could not help but ask, “What do you want?”

“I’m already so old. What else can I do? I can’t do anything.” Shi Tietou sneered. “Heh, it’s just that I can’t control what my children want to do!”

Gu Qingming said at the right time, “In the future, when my family hires people to work, please consider it!”

Shi Lichun and the others nodded. “Alright!”

The villagers’ expressions changed!

What was the meaning of this?

Would they hire someone based on their relationship?

It seemed that sometimes people really used their brains to do things.

“As for you,” Gu Qingming looked at Shi Zuoliang and said with a cold expression, “I won’t sue you this time, but if there’s a next time, I won’t let you off like this again! From now on, everything in my family has nothing to do with you! Everything in your family has nothing to do with my family either!”

The villager wondered, “What does that mean?”
