Chapter 789: Dealing with the Cheaters
"Stop, stop now, you're going to dig up all the herbs and kill them. Oh my God, we've wasted so much time, what are you going to do?"
"Doctor Jiang, what are you doing? Do you want to force us to death? It's almost the end of the year, don't you want us to have a good New Year? Why are you going crazy for no reason? We didn't provoke you."
"..."
The villagers of Sunjia Village were chattering and making a lot of noise, and some even stepped forward to stop them.
But all the people from Jiangjia Village had come, and these twenty or so people couldn't be stopped at all.
Someone went back to inform everyone and knocked on every door.
The villagers of Sunjia Village finally gathered together, and the two groups stood opposite each other, with Jiang Fubao and the village chief of Sunjia Village standing in the middle.
The village chief of Sunjia Village bent over and said to Jiang Fubao with a flattering smile: "Miss Jiang, what are you doing? Didn't you promise us before? You would let us grow the herbs, why are you digging up our herbs for no reason? Could it be that you harvested them early?"
Having tasted the sweetness of success, he would never let Jiang Fubao dig up the medicinal herbs. The villagers, including his family, were going to make a fortune from these medicinal herbs.
The New Year will be over soon, and after the crops are planted in the spring, the medicinal herbs can be harvested. He will not let this money, oh no, medicinal herbs, fly away in vain.
"Oh, what are you daydreaming about? Harvesting early? You're dreaming! Before planting these medicinal seeds, didn't I warn you that they couldn't stand the cold? You must lay straw on them when it snows, otherwise you will freeze to death. How could you have promised me that?
Since you don't want to plant properly, then just don't plant. It's a pity to waste these medicinal seeds. You should be satisfied that I didn't ask you to pay money. Get out of the way quickly. Maybe I treated you well, so you are getting ahead of yourself. Haven't you learned enough from the previous lesson?"
Jiang Fubao got angry for once.
This batch of medicine was hard to come by, and she would be heartbroken if one died.
Being frozen like this, it would be lucky if most of them died.
Maybe they are all dead, the entire army is wiped out.
Just thinking about her makes me angry.
If you don't listen to her, then don't plant anything.
Anyway, there are still nine villages, so it doesn’t matter if Sunjia Village is missing.
It won't cause any trouble.
Village Chief Sun was so frightened when he heard this that he quickly explained, "We didn't expect it to snow so heavily. Besides, it's so cold. If we go out to lay straw in the wind and snow, there's so much land. Not to mention whether there's enough straw, we'll definitely catch a cold. We won't make any money and we'll get sick. What a loss. Let's just forget it this time. We didn't think it through."
"What, you mean you didn't prepare the straw in advance?"
Jiang Fubao was stunned.
Didn't these people prepare straw in advance after she had given them a heads-up? Did they really not value this herb?
Haha, she wanted to laugh.
I begged her to give me the medicine seeds at the beginning, and now I gave them to her, but she started to slack off after only two years.
She had thought about how bad and wicked the people in Sunjia Village were, but she had never expected them to be so sneaky and cunning.
“Uh, um…” Village Chief Sun was suddenly speechless, he stammered and couldn’t speak.
"Alright, everyone hurry up and dig. From today on, no more medicinal herbs are allowed to be planted in Sunjia Village. Even if you find a way to get the medicinal seeds and plant them yourself, I won't buy them! In addition, I bought this wasteland. If you dare to use it privately, I will dig up whatever you plant!"
Jiang Fubao didn't want to talk to him anymore.
After saying that, she returned to the crowd and supervised the villagers of Jiangjia Village in digging medicinal herbs.
Everyone in Sunjia Village was in a panic and complaining bitterly. Many old women sat on the ground crying, not even minding the cold snow on their butts. They regretted how tough they had been just now now.
"Old man, I beg you, Godly doctor, please be kind and stop digging. It's all my fault. I didn't prepare the straw. It's my fault. Please don't dig. My grandson is waiting for the money from selling these herbs. If the herbs are gone, the money will be gone. He will have no money to marry a wife, and then my grandson's family will be extinct. Please, please don't dig. I beg you."
A white-haired old man knelt down. He was as thin as a stick of firewood and cried pitifully as he knelt in the snow.
He kowtowed repeatedly to Jiang Fubao.
Jiang Fubao, however, could not muster any sympathy at all.
She had tried to make an example of them before and had given these people opportunities, but they were useless.
If she forgives them this time, there will be a third and fourth time in the future. She can bear it, but Yaozhong can't.
All of this was bought with real money.
Fortunately, these medicinal species are not scarce, otherwise if one is destroyed, there will be one less in the world, which is really hateful.
To be honest, the price she paid for medicinal materials was the highest in Qixi County, not to mention in the entire Tianling Kingdom.
Besides, it was she who bought this wasteland, so these people did not pay a penny. They cultivated her land, planted her medicinal seeds, and finally, she bought the grown medicinal herbs at a high price.
It is not an exaggeration to say that we have helped.
Such good intentions go unpaid.
Medicinal herbs can be grown anywhere. If she hadn't wanted to help the villages in Lianshan Town become prosperous, she could have bought a large piece of land somewhere else and grown medicinal herbs specifically.
It would be much more cost-effective to hire talented people and spend a few dollars on them than it is now.
Jiang Fubao thought that she was not some philanthropist who did things for the people without asking for anything in return.
She can help people, but she won't help those with evil hearts.
She is not a big villain.
She just stepped aside and refused to accept the old man's apology. In the end, she let the villagers of Jiangjia Village take away all the medicinal herbs.
Just as she expected, 80% of the medicinal herbs were dead.
It ruined her heart.
Full of anger, he led the villagers of Jiangjia Village back to the village.
She would visit the remaining villages later. Now she had to plant the moved medicinal herbs first.
Jiang Fubao left only after distributing the herbs equally to the villagers and burying them in the soil.
There were also lazy families in other villages, but not as many as in Sunjia Village, so Jiang Fubao only asked Pan Shitou and Pan Erya to dig up all the medicinal herbs in the fields of the lazy families, and threatened that these families would not be allowed to grow medicinal herbs anymore.
As a result, we were delayed for too long, and when we returned to the city, it was already pitch dark.
She thought everyone in the family had finished their meal and gone back home, but as soon as she stepped into the yard, the aroma of food filled her nose.
Jiang Fubao quickly went to the main room.
All the family members were sitting here waiting for her. Some of the food on the table was steaming, while some was already cold.
Seeing her come back, Zhang Jinlan asked the maid to quickly heat up the cold dishes.
Then the family started to eat dinner.
"Grandma, don't wait for me next time. It's already so late. I'm afraid the food must have been heated up several times. You guys eat first. It's okay. I'll just have a bowl of noodles when I come back."
When Jiang Fubao saw the food had changed slightly in color, she knew that her family had been waiting for her for a long time.
I'm already tired after a whole day, and I still have to go home hungry. It makes me sad just thinking about it.
