Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 635: Willing to buy but at what price?

" Did you hear? The mer from the Xue family along with his sister was attacked by a pervert this morning," Chen Mi who was the first to receive any kind of gossip in the village told everyone in the family about what happened in the morning when he was serving breakfast.          

    

With his eyes slightly wide and his pupils shining with a gossipy glint he looked at Yu Dong and the rest before saying, " You might not know this but the mer from the Xue family and his sister were really shocked after getting attacked by that perverted woman. I heard that the mer from the Xue family is so shocked that he is suffering from a high fever, his family is now looking for a way to get him treated but doctor  Gu and even the doctors  in the town are busy because of the onslaught of the epidemic."      

"Just how many perverts are there in this village?" Ye Liu took a bite of his dumplings and then shook his head with a disgusted look on his face. " Attacking a woman and mer as early as in the morning? I hope that woman was dragged to the yamen."     

" Oh, she was," Chen Mi cupped her chin and then nodded fervently. " The Yamen officers took her away while dragging her like she was some dead dog, I heard she will be flogged a hundred times before they shut her in the prison."      

" Like she can survive a hundred flogs," Ye Liu scoffed as he finished eating the dumpling that he was eating and then turned to look at Yu Dong who was silent for no reason. " Why are you so quiet, usually you will say something about such matters no matter what."      

In fact, everyone else noticed Yu Dong acting a bit off but they did not say anything, given that she took a task that was near impossible for them, they all thought that it was normal for her to stay so quiet.      

"It's nothing, I am just thinking about what is going to happen today," she lied through her teeth with ease, the reason she was acting so quiet today was only that she was afraid that she will show more interest in the matter of that woman being dragged to the Yamen than she should and might end up attracting even more attention to herself.      

Her husbands were smarter than anyone gave them credit and they would definitely pick something up from her tone and gestures if she was to say anything which was why she deliberately stayed quiet.      

" You don't need to worry about anything," Grandma Yu told Yu Dong as she patted Yu Dong on the back of her hand. " You are not the one who is responsible for this mess and you are not responsible for cleaning it either. You are only doing this because you think of this village as yours even if you fail no one will dare to say anything I will make sure of it."      

Yu Dong nodded, as their family finished eating they all left their house and went to look for Village Head Gu who was already waiting for them when she saw that the Yu family has gathered around, she sounded the alarm bell and then called the entire village to come and gather around. Once the people of the big river village surrounded the big rock on which she was standing, she hollered at the top of her voice, " Everyone quiet! Listen to me I have something to say, you all better listen to me."      

The villagers were all discussing the reason why they were called out so early in the morning, after all it was time for them to go out and sow seeds in their fields causing delays that will make them late for their work. But when they heard Village Head Gu shout they all turned silent and then turned their line of sight to their village chief.      

" Like you all already know we are getting bullied by the Qiao woman in the town she is refusing to sell ration to us and because she holds the secret to oil making, she also holds the entire nerve of the town's businesses which is why no one is willing to go against her but if this goes on then we all will have to starve ourself to death!" She then pointed at Yu Dong who was standing next to her with her arms crossed in front and said, " Yu Dong told me that she can produce good quality oil even better than the one that the Qiao woman is selling in the town."      

" She says that she knows the trick to produce oil from rice husk, you all know that Yu Dong has a bunch of ideas in her head and her ideas always bear fruits."      

After a pause, Village head Gu swallowed and continued, " She wants you all to give the rice husk in your house and not throw it away. She is even willing to pay for that waste if you agree to sell it to her now, but of course, if you sell the rice husk then you will not get the profit margin of the oil shares when your rice husk is successfully converted into oil and will only get the money that you will get now. Of course, if she succeeds in getting oil out of husk then you all will get the shares of the oil that will be extracted from your share of rice bran!"      

" How much is she going to pay us?" A mean-sounding voice came from the back of the crowd as everyone turned to look at Old man Tong who did not blush under the gazes of the villagers who seemed to be questioning his thick skin and continued speaking,  " I mean if she is willing to buy then we are willing to sell but if the price is not reasonable then she can't call us selfish or anything of the sort!"
