Chapter 260: Chapter 260 Changing Inner Thoughts "Today was just incredible, nearly every village representative has already signed the letter of intent, and my phone has been blowing up all evening. Many farmers just heard about this and are asking to collaborate, they want us to survey the land as soon as possible." In the home of Lin Fan in Victory Village Team 2, Sun Qimei, dancing with excitement, turned off her cell phone. Otherwise, it would have blown up again—Lin Fan’s move today essentially cut off all of Cai Guangwen’s connections. When he walked out of the village committee building, everyone avoided him. It felt as though he had become a rat crossing the street, and even though he had significant influence within the Cai Family, it was all meaningless now. It’s said that the Cai Family were privately cursing him out for not being worth a damn. "Using a city mayor’s connections to deal with an old farmer, winning this battle doesn’t really bring much glory." However, Lin Fan, sitting on the sofa and puffing on a cigarette, didn’t exhibit much joy. After all, then saturated, abrupt assault was bound to result in victory, but it had also profoundly affected him. "There’s no helping it. This is just what it’s like in the countryside, especially those few old fellows who hold the power of speech. They’re always leading the charge in stirring up trouble, so many projects simply can’t get off the ground. And yet, it’s not entirely their fault. If it weren’t for the support of the villagers, how could they have so much sway? It’s just like with Li Sheng back in the day. If even one person had stood up to speak for him, things wouldn’t have turned out this way!" Sun Qimei let out a sigh and sat down next to Lin Fan: "Those villagers were just scheming; each one could get a few thousand from Li Sheng. As for the gratitude they owed him before, that was long forgotten. The result was that the next year, they were in the sorry state of having sold even their underwear, and yet everyone still blamed Li Sheng for being ruthless and no one accused Cai Wenguang because to accuse him was to slap themselves in the face." "So, the human heart is truly unpredictable!" Lin Fan smiled and shook his head. Just then, a video call came in—it was from Zhu Dan. So, Lin Fan lay on his side on the sofa, and Sun Qimei, intuitively understanding the situation, reached out to unfasten his belt. After freeing his lower half, she lay there, teasing Lin Fan’s thigh with her small tongue, and eventually, enveloped his Sky Pillar. "Big expert, you’re so free today." Enjoying the service from Sun Qimei below, Lin Fan looked at the beautiful, vivacious face of Zhu Dan on the screen and, at that moment, really wanted to pinch her perky fullness. "I heard from my dad that your letter of intent was signed smoothly, with dozens of villages and hundreds of farmers willing to participate in the Chinese Herbal Medicine Cultivation, so I specially called to thank you." Zhu Dan’s blushing face looked at Lin Fan: "After all, I know that deep down, you did this project for me." "You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t speak carelessly. I’d like to use this project to tie you down, but that’s at most a bonus. I wouldn’t be so foolish as to do something that harms the people and wastes money just to get close to you." Lin Fan quickly dismissed Zhu Dan’s idea, even though he indeed hoped to help her with more experiments and technical upgrades. But that was just an insignificant thought compared to establishing the cultivation of Chinese Herbal Medicine. "Right, right, right, you’re a farmer’s son, and you also hope that rural areas will have more vitality. I get that." Zhu Dan smiled at Lin Fan; his honesty was sometimes quite amusing. "That was just the initial thought, but now I don’t think so anymore." Lin Fan, resting on an arm, was comforted by the slippery sensation from below, but he couldn’t let it show. "Oh? I’d love to know what you’re thinking now." Zhu Dan looked at Lin Fan curiously. During their previous meetings, she could feel his sincerity, and even now his stern face was quite genuine. "Ten days ago, I was thinking, as long as I complete this task, it will turn the agriculture in Lotus Town upside down. Countless people will change their income due to this decision, their fortunes will lift, and of course, that would be the ultimate satisfaction for me. But these past ten days, I’ve seen so much warmth and chill in human relationships." Lin Fan sighed: "I’m begging high and low, inviting this person to dinner, rushing to that drinking party, and finally, it seems I’ve chewed through this tough bone. But to forcefully push a matter that’s unrelated to oneself with your father’s resources, the resulting favors I owe will have to be repaid by me. And that’s only one aspect." "If the project succeeds, they won’t say it, but in their hearts, they’ll definitely think I made a greater profit, having put in so much effort. So I can’t be the good guy. If the project fails, then essentially, I’ve harmed the investing company I brought in, and those villagers will only smirk and call me an idiot. So win or lose, I’m Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror—I’m no one’s hero." "So what then?" Lin Fan’s analysis left Zhu Dan with no choice but to agree; after all, his hard work in advancing the project was evident. "So, being a good official is tough. I’ll just have to treat it as an accomplishment. At least that way, I still gain something." Lin Fan said with a mysterious smile: "Besides, when the big expert returns, we can conduct a study with the village on physiological hygiene together. That would be more substantial." Hearing this, Zhu Dan’s face turned red: "I’ll be back next month; you just wait."
