The audience applauded and everyone was discussing it enthusiastically.

“Miss Yu, you’re still as low-key as ever. Why was Sun Wang so short-sighted previously? He was giving orders all day long, but he almost sank the boat.”

The surrounding people laughed when they heard this.

“That’s right. Not everyone can determine the right direction.”

“Previously, I thought that the production value we created in the field was inferior to the employees involved in the project. After hearing this, I feel more confident.”

“We’re behind-the-scenes contributors, the kind who contribute silently.”

“Educated people are indeed quite eloquent. Her words make people feel so comfortable.”

“That’s just empty talk. I think she’s trying to coax us villagers who didn’t get chosen as workers to work in the fields obediently.”

“Hey! Mr. Niu, you make it sound like you didn’t have to work before this project began!”

The man called Mr. Niu immediately retorted, “Yes, but there were many people, so we didn’t have to be as tired as we are now!”

Mr. Niu attended the interview every round of recruitment, but he was always stuck at the first round. He had always been a little indignant and angry that Yu Bing refused to lower her standards, causing more than ten worker spots in the factory to be occupied by outsiders.

There were many people in the village who could tell right from wrong, so someone immediately interrupted and rebuked him, “There weren’t so many dividends in the past! When there were fewer dividends, there were fewer complaints. Now, there are more dividends than in the past, but you’re using work as an excuse.”

“That’s right. Stop pretending to be the victim! Not to mention the year-end dividends, which family hasn’t earned money from the bamboo gift boxes, eggs, chili, and other raw materials that the factory usually collects? In the past, we had to take them to the commune ourselves. Now, we can earn money at our doorstep, yet you’re still complaining?!”

A small group of people like Mr. Niu, who wanted to cause trouble, was quickly condemned by the others.

Although the villagers didn’t know how much more dividends there would be this year, this project gave everyone hope. They wanted to protect it and refused to allow these troublemakers to stir up trouble.

After Yu Bing finished speaking, Wu Jin went on stage and told them about the profits of the factory. Because most of the profits were used to repay the debt, there was only profit for the two to three months at the end of the year. He set aside the operating capital and distributed the rest in dividends, so there wasn’t much left.

Then, the village staff began to organize everyone to line up and go forward. After confirming their work points with Mr. Wei and Wen Qin, the cashier was in charge of distributing the money. Zhao Lin, Director Liu, and a few team leaders were in charge of distributing the food.

People like Yu Yan, who slacked off all day long and took leave very often, didn’t get much money. After the 50 yuan she borrowed from the village was deducted, she only got 12.82 yuan.

Because she had gone home, the money and food were temporarily placed in the office of the village committee. She would collect them after the new year.

As Yao Nian looked at the 128.5 yuan in his hand, he felt a little upset.

He had previously asked around. According to previous years, he could only get 80 to 90 yuan. The reason why he could get so much more now was that the village’s collective project had succeeded.

When Yao Nian thought of Yu Bing, who had been talking so confidently on the stage just now, he suddenly felt that she was very dazzling. Her thin figure, which he used to think was unattractive, seemed so charming. Her cheeks were fair and rosy, revealing her healthiness. She exuded a completely different aura from before.

However, if one asked Yao Nian if he had any regrets, he would definitely deny it. After all, the temptation of returning to the city was greater to Yao Nian than anything else.

He only felt that as his former marriage partner, Yu Bing had once belonged to him, so how could her life get better after being abandoned by him?

However, no one cared about the complicated emotions in Yao Nian’s heart. He was just secretly complaining to himself. He was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Yu Yan’s outcome after scheming against Yu Bing was still vivid in his mind, so he wouldn’t provoke Yu Bing now.

After the end-of-year dividends were distributed, everyone had to start preparing for the new year.

Because it was cold outside, Yu Bing and Jiang Chun had been reading at home every day recently. Their days were leisurely and carefree.

Cui Jin rushed to the He Mountain Village on the morning of the 27th of the lunar year. After Jiang Chun took the marriage report from Cui Jin’s army, she looked for Wu Jin to write a permission slip. This kind of marriage was naturally in line with the conditions to write a permission slip.
