Chapter 586 Putting on a False Front

“The Moon and Sixpence?” Chu Ning asked in astonishment when she saw the cover of the book that Wen An had placed on the coffee table.

Wen An nodded and said while reminiscing, “When I was in university, my teacher had recommended this book to me, but I didn’t read it at that time. I felt that reading was quite boring. Some things still had to be done by myself to get a different type of knowledge.”

“I’ve read this book before. It’s said that the main character’s prototype is based on the painter Gauguin; it’s quite meaningful,” Chu Ning said with interest.

“Just a person who does whatever he wants.” Wen An expressed his opinion.

Wen An added, “I don’t agree with the protagonist abandoning his family in pursuit of his dream of painting. The series of events that happened after makes me feel that he is a completely selfish person.”

“Rather than being selfish, it’s more like being self-aware. However, people are different. When reading the same book, everyone’s views are varied. Just treat it as a story. Just like Village Chief Wen — on the surface, he looks very relaxed and like he has nothing to do, but in fact, he’s still worried about Qinghe Village, right?” Chu Ning said with a smile.

“There are always some people who think they’re smart. They won’t wake up until they really suffer.” Wen An felt a little helpless. The situation in the village had been a little off these two days. As the Chief, he knew very well.

Zhong Liang had secretly roped in the residents of Qinghe Village to collaborate with Yang Feng. He thought that he had done it very stealthily and that no third party would be aware of it. In fact, when he had just finished the secret meeting and distributed the money, Wen An had already figured out the context of the matter within half an hour.

Zhong Liang thought that he was very capable, but he couldn’t understand one thing. If he was capable enough, the position of Chief should be his.

“Village Chief Wen wants to sit idly by? This isn’t like you,” Chu Ning asked curiously.

In her opinion, Wen An would not allow anyone to destroy the collective interests of Qinghe Village. Some people in Qinghe Village had done this before and had been living in prison for some time now.

“How can I care? They chose to believe in the lies of outsiders despite the obvious reasoning.” Wen An imperceptibly shook his head.

“I have to let the small group of people understand the price of betraying the collective. Of course, I’m doing this to set a rule that can’t be broken. Now, they might complain that I’m cold-blooded and heartless, but in a few years, or even decades, as the timeline stretches, the descendants of these Qinghe villagers might remember that, a long time ago, a Chief of Qinghe Village set a tacit rule to protect the collective interests. Only by uniting as one can we reap more,” Wen An explained softly.

“This is a good thing. After getting rid of some people with different thoughts and getting through this crisis, the future development of Qinghe Village will be smooth. However, this way, the pressure on you will be even greater. After all, even if they are fooled and betray Qinghe Village, once they are abandoned, they will return again and say that it was your fault for not correcting them in time. In addition, they have a blood relationship with Qinghe Village. It will be very difficult,” Chu Ning analyzed calmly.

She had already vaguely guessed the cause and effect of the matter in her mind.

Yang Feng was using his old tricks again.

However, this time, he had put in more capital and showed more ‘sincerity’.

Trying to split Qinghe Village from the inside was a very sinister and vicious move, but it was extremely effective.

After all, the current situation of Qinghe Village was not optimistic. The unit price of the agricultural products they relied on for survival was too low. They had enough reason to choose a new way out.

Yang Feng’s decision to jump out at this time was just right. The key was that the reward he gave was attractive enough.

Wen An looked meaningfully at Chu Ning and said, “Isn’t the person who will solve my problem here? Whether I feel pressured or not depends on whether you can give me a clear direction.”

“Good fellow, so you were pretending to read, but were really waiting for me.” Although the purpose of Chu Ning’s visit this time was to discuss the next step of collaboration with Wen An, Wen An’s words meant that the situation in Qinghe Village was indeed very complicated.

Wen An had to come up with a practical solution now. The only one who could really help him at the moment was Chu Ning.

Wen An spread his hands and feebly said, “Other than waiting for you, I don’t think I have a better solution.”

“Village Chief Wen, I came to chat with you sincerely,” Chu Ning suddenly said seriously.

“I know, President Chu. I’ve always trusted you.” Wen An likewise answered very seriously.
