Village chief, your township enterprise sells laser cannons?

Chapter 68: On the Barbecue Grill!

Messages kept coming in the group chat, and Lin Wenwen's heart grew colder and colder with each message she read.

The kind ladies in the group said they would come to support her, but more than two hours have passed and they still haven't arrived.

They also want her to reimburse their travel expenses!

She doesn't have that much money; she's spent it all on grain and celebrity albums!

After thinking for a moment, she sent a message in the group.

I have no money!

After sending the message, I caught a glimpse of my father and Lin Man walking into the courtyard together and then going upstairs together.

Lin Wenwen quickly stuffed her phone into her pocket, put on a stern face, then opened the door and yelled at the outside:

"I told you, I'm not going to eat your lousy food!"

After she finished her tirade, she noticed that Lin Man had a sports camera hanging around his neck.

Just as I was about to speak, I heard Lin Man across from me preemptively point to the camera around his neck and say:

"I just bought an action camera to record every day of my time as village chief."

"Xiaowen, you're an adult now. You need to know your limits and not be shy."

"If you're so shy, you'll easily get bullied when you start working."

"Let's go!"

As he spoke, Lin Man slowly raised his right hand, and out of the camera's view, he slowly ran his right hand across his neck.

Seeing these actions, Lin Wenwen just gritted her teeth and remained silent.

Lin Yaozong, who was standing to the side, noticed that his daughter was still standing there like a wooden statue. His smiling face turned extremely ugly. He snorted coldly, stepped forward, grabbed Lin Wenwen, and dragged her out.

Upon seeing this, Lin Man chuckled and followed the father and daughter towards the ancestral hall.

As soon as he entered the ancestral hall square, he noticed the official vehicle at the entrance.

Guangzhou license plates!

At that moment, he suddenly remembered what Huang Jiajia had said that morning.

Group Two!

Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection!

He looked at the car, and the person inside noticed him too. The car door opened, and a woman who looked very capable and was about 30 years old got out of the car, walked quickly to Lin Man, and took out her ID card and handed it to Lin Man.

Ding Jiayi, First Supervisory Brigade of the Guangdong Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection...

While Lin Man was checking the documents, Ding Jiayi circled the scene of the banquet with her hand:

"I heard your village is heavily in debt?"

A question snapped Lin Man out of his reverie of checking his ID. He pointed to the action camera hanging around his neck:

"Boss, you're documenting your life!"

This action made Ding Jiayi frown subconsciously, and she understood the meaning behind Lin Man's words.

That money isn't owed by the village, so don't talk nonsense.

Once she understood this, Ding Jiayi's lips curled into a twitching smile. This young man in front of her was more troublesome than she had imagined.

But as difficult as it may be, it's something I've always been the one to deal with!

She raised her right hand, and someone behind her immediately handed her a document. Ding Jiayi took the document, turned around and shoved it into Lin Man's hand, asking with a playful expression:

"We have just received several more reports alleging that you and your father colluded with government officials and businessmen to embezzle village collective assets and funds."

"Furthermore, according to our investigation, you have been in office for about half a month, but so far, you still haven't organized a village committee team."

"Finally, I heard you discriminate against women?"

Lin Man remained silent, not wanting to speak, and simply squinted at Ding Jiayi in front of him.

Compared to Huang Jiajia, Ding Jiayi in front of her was much more shrewd in dealing with people and using slang.

He wasn't sure whether the other person was real or fake.

But Ding Jiayi's words were overheard by Lin Wenwen, who quickly ran over and pointed at Lin Man, saying:

"Sister, it's him. He embezzled the village's money. He took the village's money and used the excuse of doing projects to swallow all the money into his own pocket."

This sentence instantly caught Ding Jiayi's attention.

However, after Ding Jiayi looked Lin Wenwen up and down, she said something that left Lin Wenwen completely baffled:

"Little sister, I heard you got a perfect score on the college entrance exam. This event in your village was organized by your village chief to celebrate for you."

"Aren't you going to celebrate with them, accept the award, and say a few words of encouragement?"

After speaking with Lin Wenwen, Ding Jiayi reached out and snatched the documents back from Lin Man's hand. "Secretary Lin, you go ahead and host your event. I'll wait for you in the car."

And so, Ding Jiayi arrived suddenly, and then left just as suddenly.

As the car door closed, Lin Wenwen's face turned ashen, while Lin Man, standing beside her, turned back and gave her a thumbs-up.

"You're really great!"

After praising her, he grabbed Lin Wenwen's shoulder and pushed her forward, sending her to the podium.

The driver who brought her there that morning was right next to the podium. While Lin Man was pushing Lin Wenwen onto the podium, the driver leaned close to Lin Man and whispered:

"I just started another live stream, and I have over 5000 viewers. Some are boxing, and some are just watching for fun."

"There are about a dozen people live streaming in the whole square, and tens of thousands of people are watching. Be careful."

"come on!"

After the driver finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared back into the crowd.

As the person by the podium turned back after the other person disappeared into the crowd, Lin Man's gaze quickly swept over the live streamers, then he turned around, took the megaphone from Lin Yaodong, and shouted to the drum and gong team:

"Let the drums beat and the firecrackers go off!"

As the sounds of gongs, drums, and firecrackers rang out, Lin Man raised his hands like a conductor and then waved them upwards. The dozen or so students on the podium followed his gesture, raising their admission notices high as well.

The drums and gongs reached their climax at this moment, and fireworks burst forth.

Amidst the cacophony, Lin Man picked up the megaphone:

"From a humble farmer in the morning to a high-ranking official in the evening, ten years of hard study are all for the sake of one day making a name for oneself."

"Our Hongxing Village has been established for decades, and this year is the best year for education in our village."

"This year, 14 people took the college entrance examination, and their results were all quite good."

"We are ordinary people, and ordinary people should do things in an ordinary way."

"Let's get straight to the point and get straight to the bonuses. Without further ado, please welcome Mr. Lin Yaobei to present the bonuses to our children."

With shouts, Lin Man's father, Lin Yaobei, emerged from the corner pushing a small cart.

Beside him were Lin Yaonan and Lin Yaoxi.

The small cart loaded with money attracted everyone's attention from the moment it appeared.

Pushing the cart of money to the podium, Lin Yaobei, following his previous plan, picked up the money from the cart and placed stacks of it on the dozen or so children:

Study hard!

After distributing these dozen or so, there was still a thick stack left on the cart, worth about 20 yuan.

Lin Man walked over, pulled the money to the very center, then turned to look at the crowd and brought the megaphone to his mouth:

"Here is 25 yuan. This is a unique prize, a prize that belongs to our village, and even to the only perfect scorer in the entire country!"

"Now, let's invite our top-scoring student to show us her acceptance letter!"
