Chapter 224: Spending Money to Learn a Lesson

The villagers pointed at Granny Guo and scolded her fiercely, "Granny Guo, we're all from the same village. Whenever your family was in trouble, we were always there to help you out. Now that there's a benefit to be had, you only think of yourselves. That's no way to be a person."

The village chief also sternly criticized Granny Guo, "The boss is willing to pay a high price for our apples because of his kindness. You should be thanking him, not giving him a hard time. If everyone acted like you, who would dare to come to our village to buy apples in the future?"

The village chief, true to his role as an official, was incredibly skilled at putting on the pressure.

Yet he seemed to forget that he was the one who had initially led the villagers to surround Shen Mingzhu and her group.

The Guo family might be selfish, but the village chief and the villagers weren't exactly saints either.
