Chapter 555 - 555 Secret Meeting

555 Secret Meeting

At this moment, there was only one lit candle in the living room.

There were more than 30 people seated around the candle in the living room that was less than 30 square meters.

These were the residents of Qinghe Village who wanted to make a fortune.

Their appearance at Zhong Liang’s house that day represented their attitude.

“Is everyone here?” Zhong Liang looked around. Although he couldn’t see the faces around him clearly due to the lighting, it didn’t affect the gathering.

“Third Brother Han didn’t come,” someone said hesitantly.

“Is there anyone else besides him?” Zhong Liang asked.

“No, he’s the only one,” came the reply.

“Alright, since he doesn’t want to come, we can’t force him,” Zhong Liang said softly.

“I’m afraid… If he doesn’t want to do it himself and even divulges our gathering, once Village Chief Wen or some of the stubborn elders in the village know about it, I’m afraid we’ll be in trouble.” Another Qinghe Village villager sighed and said worriedly.

“What are you afraid of? We’re just looking for a suitable way to survive. Whoever stops us from making money is our common enemy,” a hoarse voice suddenly sounded in the dimly-lit room.

After hearing this, everyone, including Zhong Liang, fell silent.

There were only 30 of them, and they couldn’t represent everyone.

Especially Zhong Liang. He understood that it didn’t matter whether these people’s collaboration with Yang Feng was successful or not.

As long as he could successfully divide Qinghe Village, his goal would be achieved. Zhong Liang would receive a huge reward that would allow him to not have to work for the rest of his life.

“Yu Wei, we need to discuss serious matters first. Don’t be antagonistic,” another voice came from the dark corner.

“Let’s quickly finish our discussion and go home. We’re already taking a big risk by doing this,” another person added.

“Alright. I think everyone should already be mentally prepared since you’re here today,” Zhong Liang said softly.

“President Yang is a very generous person. As long as everyone works well for him, not only will our annual income increase, but all kinds of benefits will also continue to come in the future. The few villages around Qinghe Village have all tasted the rewards of following President Yang,” Zhong Liang continued.

“Zhong Liang, don’t get ahead of yourself. You should mainly tell us what to do next,” a resident of Qinghe Village said impatiently.

The candle burned slowly, and the weak candlelight reflected the expressions of the people around it.

Zhong Liang made it sound easy, but if they really did that, the people who participated that day would be equivalent to splitting from Qinghe Village.

These people violated the fundamental principle of common prosperity.

“Xiao Shan, bring the printed contract over and give a copy to everyone present. After you go back, sign the contract. This way, you’ll be considered President Yang’s employees. Your salary is 50,000 yuan a year. This is even higher than what President Chu provided before, right?” Zhong Liang said with a smile.

“Of course, I won’t force those who are unwilling. It’s not too late to regret now,” Zhong Liang added.

“Is it really 50,000 yuan a year?” someone asked in disbelief.

“You can take a closer look at the contract at home. You can also consult the relevant practitioners to see if this is real or not; whether or not I’m lying to you.” Zhong Liang was very confident. In the face of huge benefits, he believed that some people would be tempted. Moreover, he had other means that day.

“If we can really stably get 50,000 yuan a year, I’m willing to leave Qinghe Village.” After hearing Zhong Liang’s words, someone immediately said this.

“Me too! I’ve had enough of this embarrassing life! Since Wen An can’t lead all of us to become rich together, why can’t we find our own way out!” another Qinghe villager said agitatedly.

“After signing this contract…will we be in trouble?” someone said uneasily.

“There won’t be any trouble. We’ll still be working like before, but the income will be much higher than before. Of course, we’ll be considered to have left Qinghe Village,” Zhong Liang said very frankly.

“Think about it. I’ll give you two days. If you’re willing to do it, come to my house and submit the contract,” Zhong Liang added.
