<h4>Chapter 335: Cash</h4>


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>Lonelytree


    Three dayster, Xiao Lingyu withdrew more than five million in cash from the bank.


    The bank in Xing An town did not have that much cash, so they had to go to the county bank to make an appointment and withdraw the money. The withdrawal was very secretive. No one noticed anything, and they hauled the cash back to the vige.


    “Wow, this is a lot of money!” When the vigers received the notice that Xiao Lingyu had returned with the money, everyone gathered at the vigemittee. Some even ran back from their work when they heard the news. After all, the money would be distributed per person. One person could get


    about seven or eight thousand RMB, so if a family had two people, they could get fifteen thousand. That was a huge amount of money.


    There was arge pile of cash on stage. It was very exciting.


    “T’ve never seen so much money in my life!”


    “Me too! Probably only bank workers would see something like this!”


    “Indeed, who in our vige would have so much money?”


    “Xiao Lingyu might have seen this before. After all, she used to work in a big city.”


    “You’re right.” Someone agreed, “Xiao Lingyu has seen the world, unlike people like us who are trapped in this mountain vige.”


    “That’s more than five million. I want to take them all home and sleep on them. I think I’ll wake upughing in my dream.”


    “You sure like to daydream!” Someoneughed. People were joking and having fun.


    “Well, he’s not exactly daydreaming.” Someone pointed out.


    “That’s right. You have six people in your family. So your family will get more than 40,000 RMB.”


    “If your family has more people, you’ll be able to get more money.”


    “That’s right.”


    “We’ve saved for decades, and we can barely get 10,000 RMB. But we only need to rent out some hills, and we can get more than that.” The vigers were really happy.


    “By the way, with this much money, what are you nning to do?”


    “It’s a betrothal gift for my eldest son’s wife, and we’ll build a brick house.”


    During this time, the housing market hadn’t exploded yet. It didn’t cost much to build a house in the countryside.


    However, three yearster, the price would leap sky-high, even if it was just building a house in the countryside.


    At this moment, building a three-story vi in the countryside cost around 40,000 RMB. But three yearster, a single-story house in the countryside would cost 200,000 RMB.


    The housing price in the city would be higher. This created a housing craze. People bought more houses, afraid that the price would rise higher. Due to the market demand, the price did rise higher. It was a vicious circle.


    This brought a new era to the real estate business.


    Of course, the vigers didn’t know about all these things.


    ‘When they got the money, apart from saving it, they wanted to help their children get married and build a house. Not many considered buying a house in the city.


    “My family isrge. I should get quite a bit of money. I’ll build a house and then prepare to find a wife for my eldest son.”


    “My family has the same n. However, our house has just been renovated. Then again, my youngest son needs to get married. We n to build him a house so he can move in with his wife!”


    The vigers were enraptured in joy. The wealth fell from the sky. With this money, they didn’t need to worry about most things anymore.


    While they were discussing, the vige chief and Xiao Lingyu arrived.


    ‘The vige chief took the stage and shouted through the loudspeaker, “Everyone, quiet down!”


    This time, everyone cooperated in a way that they had never done before.


    The lively scene suddenly became silent. Everyone looked at the vige chief excitedly.


    Of course, the vige chief was also very excited.


    His tone was happy. Heughed, “I don’t think a vige meeting has gone so sessfully before. In the past, people never heeded my advice to quiet down. Alright, I’ll stop wasting time. Let’s get to the main topic. Everyone should know what the purpose of this meeting is, right?”


    “Yes!” Everyone said in unison.


    “In that case, I’l just go through the agenda briefly,” The vige chief said, “The main purpose of this meeting is to distribute the rent from Xiao Lingyu’s contract of the mountains. The money will be distributed ording to the number of individuals in a household.


    “Even a newborn or a newly-married daughter-inw will get their fair share. Our vige has 186 households and 664, people, so each person will get 7,662 RMB.


    “The money will be distributed per household. So please send one representative toe up the stage to get your money!”


    “Okay!” The people present responded very cooperatively.


    “Now, Xiao Lingyu, please say a few words to everyone!” The vige chief ced the loudspeaker in front of Xiao Lingyu.


    Xiao Lingyu sat on stage, with Gong Tianhao standing beside her.


    Xiao Lingyu nced at all the vigers present and then said very seriously, “I’ve already discussed the contract and agreement for the mountains during the previous meetings, so I’ll only go through the important points again. I will contract the mountains for thirty years.


    “Within these 30 years, the six mountains are mine. The vigers can still go up the mountain to forage, but the foraging is for personal use only.


    “If I find out, for example, someone has been chopping firewood to sell to outsiders, there will be punishment in terms of heavy fines.


    “Of course, these have already been written in the contract, and I’ve stressed them in previous meetings.


    “After the household representatives sign the contract, they will get the rental.


    “Once you ce down your signature and fingerprint, it means that you’ve agreed to the contract and its uses.”


    Someone below said loudly, “Lingyu, we all know that.”


    Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Alright, let’s start handing out cash now..”
