Chapter 1498: Go to Dongsan County

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Seeing that Gao Dexi had adjusted the price and was about to leave, the villagers gathered again.

Originally, Gao Dexi’s price was not much higher than others, which was a little disappointing.

Now, he had increased the price again. This was quite good.

Even if someone else came, they probably wouldn’t be able to offer a higher price than this.

“Let me tell you, this is your last chance. You know the situation in Dongsan County. You only produce so much food every year. It’s not even worth us making another trip. If you don’t agree, you get another chance in the future.” Gao Dexi said,

“Also, that man is obviously a swindler. If you end up getting tricked, don’t blame me. Moreover, if you don’t agree to sell food before five o’clock tomorrow, I won’t accept it. You can decide what to do next.”

With that, Gao Dexi and Yu Mingming turned around and left without saying anything else to the people of Dongsan County.

More than 30 villagers from Dongsan County gathered together and fell into a dilemma.

They did not overcomplicate things. They just wanted to sell it for more money. That was all.

However, Lin Yi’s price was too high. It was so high that they didn’t believe it themselves, so they were afraid of being cheated.

On the other hand, the price Gao Dexi offered was very good. It was very difficult to find another offer like this on the market, so they didn’t know what to choose.

At the same time, Lin Yi and Li Sijin were walking towards the county.

“Brother Lin, are you serious? Are you actually offering such a high price?”

“Why are you suspecting it too?” Lin Yi smiled.

“Do I look so bored to you?”

“Our family farms too. I’ve never seen such a high price since I was young.” Li Sijin changed her posture and looked at Lin Yi.

“Brother Lin, don’t tell me you’re paying out of your own pocket just to do a good deed?”

“How is that possible? No matter what, I’m still a businessman. 1 won’t offer a losing deal.” Lin Yi said.

“I got someone to contact the central government’s grain storage. This is the price they gave me. We cut out many of the middlemen and even set the price according to the price of premium grain. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so high.”

“So that’s what happened.” Li Sijin was overjoyed and took out her phone.

“I have to call my father and ask him to come over tomorrow and sell all his grain.”

Lin Yi smiled and stepped on the accelerator, driving towards Dongsan County.

When they returned to the office, they happened to see Li Qingkai packing his things, as if he was preparing to get off work.

“Comrade Li Qingkai, you are packing your things and getting off work at 4:10 just now. Even slackers don’t act like you.”

Li Qingkai looked at the door and scolded jokingly,

“You still have the cheek to criticize me, seriously.”

“Since you, the leader, have left, the two of us won’t stay here anymore. Let’s get off work too.”

“Don’t go. I’ve been waiting for you.”

“Is something wrong?”

“Come to my house for dinner tonight. I’ll get your sister-in-law to make something good for you.”

“What’s the occasion?”

“A while ago, the two of you went to Zhonghai and bought so many things for my son. Your sister-in-law feels bad and wants to treat you to a meal.”

“Don’t worry, it didn’t cost much,” Lin Yi said.

“I know you’re rich and don’t care about that, but we can’t take your things for free. We have to show some respect.” Li Qingkai said.

“Both of you, don’t refuse. Pack your things and come with me later.”

“Then 1 won’t stand on ceremony.”

Compared to the joyous atmosphere on Lin Yi’s side, Ji Qingyan’s Yunshui Villa was much quieter.

Ji Qingyan’s clothes, cosmetics, and other daily necessities were packed into a car, which was all unloaded by evening.

Because it had been idle for too long and no one had taken care of it, there was a lot of dust in the corners of the villa.

There was a trace of desolation and coldness to the home.

Back then, Ji Qingyan had thought that she might never return. She had even thought of selling this villa.

Now that she thought about it, it was a good thing that she had been too lazy to sell it. Otherwise, she would currently be homeless.

“Senior Sister, don’t stay here today. 1’11 get someone to clean it tomorrow.”

“Mhm.” Ji Qingyan nodded. “Let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

Seeing that Ji Qingyan was not in a good mood, He Yuanyuan did not feel good either.

She wanted to cheer her up, but she didn’t know what to say.

A person like her senior sister was very aware of the situation. No matter what

she said, it was useless. She could only let her slowly digest the news.

“It’s past five. Let’s find a place to eat. I’m hungry.”

“By the way, didn’t Gao Zongyuan call you? You two go eat. I’m not too hungry.” “You haven’t eaten all day. How can you not be hungry? Hurry up and follow me.”

“I’m really not hungry, and I’m not in the mood to eat.”

“Go eat. 1’11 stay here for a while.”

“How can 1 do that? I can’t leave you here alone.”

“I’m already an adult. Are you still afraid that 1’11 take things too hard?

Seriously.”

Ji Qingyan tied her long hair into a ponytail, making it look neat and tidy.

“Go ahead. I’ll stay at home for a while.”

“Forget it, 1 won’t go either. 1 can live without Gao Zongyuan, but I can’t live without you,” He Yuanyuan said.

“Here you are speaking as though the sky is falling.” Ji Qingyan smiled.

“It’s not as serious as you think. Hurry up and eat.”

“No.” He Yuanyuan refused immediately. “1’11 order some takeout. Let’s have a meal here.”

Ji Qingyan knew He Yuanyuan’s temper very well. She probably wouldn’t leave even if she ordered her to.

“Then let’s decide on something.”

Exhausted, she sat on the sofa, lost in her thoughts.

He Yuanyuan did not know what to do either. She could only order the takeaway first.

People are like iron, and rice is like steel; they can’t survive without eating.©

About forty minutes later, He Yuanyuan ordered a table full of food, but Ji

Qingyan was disinterested and only ate a few mouthfuls before setting it aside.

“Senior Sister, take a few more bites. You can’t not eat after breaking up.”

“I’m really not that hungry.”

“Eat first. 1’11 go back to my room to rest.”

“The house hasn’t been tidied up yet. How are you going to rest?”

“It’s fine. 1’11 just make do with it.”

With that, Ji Qingyan walked upstairs tiredly.

“Senior Sister, let’s not stay here.”

“If not here, where?”

“Dongsan County.”

Frowning, she asked, “Why should we go to Dongsan County?”

“Let’s go see who that little vixen is.” He Yuanyuan rolled up her sleeves and said.

“Why should 1 let him be so happy? When 1 see him, 1’11 go up and slap him.”

“Stop fooling around.”

“These things are very normal. There’s no need to go looking for him. When he comes back, I’ll just have him explain things clearly.”

“I can’t wait any longer. If you want to say something, say it now. Let’s go now!”
