Chapter 314 - 314 No Return
314 No Return
“But,” Shan Yue did not stop here. Instead, she instilled her emotions into it, filled with infectiousness. “What I care about the most is still that fake promotional video. According to Pang Shuo, the people of Pang Village want to lighten our burden and rely on their own efforts to change their lives. However, this is definitely not realistic. I would believe it if someone else thought that way, but it’s impossible for everyone in the village to think that way. Human desires are like a black hole that can never be filled. It’s endless. They can’t make themselves rich relying on the current environment of Pang Village. There’s only one explanation left. Their desires have been satisfied, so there’s the subsequent publicity.”
After hearing this, Zhang Luo could not help but feel suspicious. “Then if all of this was really done by Pang Shuo, where is the extra money now? How did he deal with it? To them, it’s not a small sum.”
Zhou Xuan slowly stood up and looked around the entire Pang Village through the window. “No matter where the money is or how much we suspect them, it’s just our empty guesses. It won’t be of any use. Everyone, why don’t you go back and rest early? We’ll be busy tomorrow. We have to visit the entire village as much as possible.”
At this point, He Sheng happened to push the door open from the outside and enter. “President Zhou has already arranged for the bodyguards he brought to work two shifts a night according to the instructions you gave me. You, President Shan, and Young Master Zhang can rest assured. There will be our people guarding the door all night. No matter how bold Pang Shuo is, he won’t dare to do anything behind our backs.”
Then, Shan Yue and Zhang Luo returned to their rooms. Although the three of them were not in the same room, they were all thinking about what had happened that night. They carefully recalled if they had missed any important details. The memories replayed in their minds like a video, bringing these fragments into their dreams with deep thought.
Early the next morning, the crowing of the chickens in the village woke up most of the people. No one showed any abnormality because of the arrival of Shan Yue and the others. They were busy as usual.
Farming, cutting grass, and doing odd jobs. A simple life in the countryside appeared in front of them.
When Pang Shuo knocked on the door of Shan Yue and the other two, he realized that the house was already empty. At this moment, the three of them were already scattered throughout the village.
Everyone’s division of labor was very clear. Zhou Xuan was in charge of visiting the old people at home, Shan Yue was in charge of the children playing in the village, and Zhang Luo was in charge of the young people working in the fields. All of this was told to Pang Shuo by the village spies.
The people below were clearly not as experienced as Pang Shuo. All their emotions were written on their faces, and their words revealed panic. “What should we do, Master? Do you think the three of them will really find out anything? Wouldn’t we be dead?”
“Don’t panic. All the villagers don’t know what we’re doing. If they want to live a rich life, they have to listen to me. Who dares to say that I’m not good to them? I don’t believe that the three of them can find out anything from the villagers. How many times have I told you to calm down when you encounter things?”
Pang Shuo glanced fiercely at the person beside him. “Not to mention that they can’t find anything at all, even if they really find something, once they can threaten us, I’ll definitely make sure they don’t return. Perhaps those few people can call the shots in the Federation’s central city, but they’ve already come to my territory. Even if they’re a dragon, they’ll be restrained. Moreover, can the eight bodyguards he brought with him stop my militia?”
The servant nodded repeatedly and praised, “You’re still the smartest. You even left a backup plan before doing anything. Your brain is really much better than mine. I can still get rich by following you.”
“However, this is also a bad idea. After all, we relied on them to get rich. Once they die in Pang Village, it will definitely cause a commotion in public opinion. At that time, Pang Village will definitely fall. Even us will have to move. I don’t want to end up fighting to the death. That won’t be good for anyone.”
