Chapter 59: The amateur village chief prevents a student with a perfect score on the college entranc
Seeing Lin Man nod, Zhang Renhe asked again, "Do you really understand?"
"I really understand!"
Having received a reply, Zhang Renhe asked again, "Do you really understand?"
"I really understand!" Lin Man put down his chopsticks, pressed two fingers of his right hand on the table, mimicking walking on the table, then pointed to himself:
"The advisor has taken office in Goose City!"
"I really understand!" Zhang Renhe nodded with satisfaction, lowered his head to continue eating, and occasionally looked up to say a few words about work.
After finishing the meal and clearing away the dishes, Zhang Renhe personally saw Lin Man to the door. As he reached the stairwell, he whispered a few words of advice:
"Remember, you are young. Youth is your capital, whether you advance or retreat!"
"Be careful on the road."
"I will definitely remember your teachings, teacher. You can go back now!" Lin Man nodded vigorously again, turned around and walked out of the building, disappearing from Zhang Renhe's sight.
After standing in the stairwell for a while, Zhang Renhe turned around and went home. He didn't rest immediately, but went to the fish tank to look at the jade carvings soaking in it.
About half an hour later, the sound of a key turning came from the front door, followed by a gentle voice from the living room:
"Old Zhang, didn't you say you invited someone over for dinner? Did they leave?"
"Let's go!"
"Are you gone? Have you explained things clearly?" With the voice, a woman of similar age to Zhang Renhe appeared in the living room. She looked around and noticed Zhang Renhe studying the fish tank on the balcony. The woman then walked towards the balcony.
As she got closer, she noticed that Zhang Renhe was studying the statue in the fish tank, and at that moment, Zhang Renhe's voice rang out:
"Isn't it beautiful? It was a gift from the little guy I met up with today."
"He told me it was genuine mutton fat jade bought online, which cracked me up."
"But it's perfect, this thing looks quite nice as a rockery in the fish tank."
After explaining for a bit, Zhang Renhe picked up the fish food from the side, scooped up a few pellets with his fingers, and casually sprinkled them into the fish tank.
The fish food immediately attracted the attention of the goldfish in the tank when it hit the water.
The fish tank was lit with warm yellow light, and bright red goldfish darted around in the light. The light was cut off and shone on the milky white jade carving again and again, adding a sense of translucency to the jade carving.
The woman stared at it for a while, then suddenly turned to Zhang Renhe and said:
"Old Zhang, this thing might be real!"
"Fake! There's no such thing as a Hetian jade that big!" Zhang Renhe rolled his eyes and started prying open the fingers of his left hand with his right hand.
"That year, we went on a trip to Northwest China and bought a jade pendant the size of a child's palm for 5 yuan."
"Several grandsons and granddaughters, and grandsons and granddaughters wearing small gourds around their necks."
"Each one is as small as a thumb tip, and costs 2."
"Then you said that the thing in this fish tank is real. People say that when it comes to collecting cultural relics, you can have one piece in the Palace Museum and another piece in the Palace Museum. I have never seen such a large mutton fat jade carving before, especially one carved like this."
"That's such a waste, and if it were true, wouldn't I be in big trouble?"
"Stop joking around, get some rest... Fang Lan, watch out for my fish."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Renhe quickly stepped forward and, together with his wife Fang Lan, scooped the jade carving out of the fish tank.
Fang Lan carefully placed the jade carving on the ground. She then knelt down beside it, shone her phone light on the carving, and studied it carefully for a long time before looking up:
"Old Zhang, you're in trouble. I can guarantee with all my knowledge that this is the real deal!"

"So, this is a trap?" Wang Ju leaned back on the sofa, propping her face up with her left hand and holding her phone in her right, idly swiping through names.
He looked to both sides, his left eye on Lin Man and his right eye on his phone.
On the sofa to the left, Lin Man was also holding a phone, frantically replying to messages in a WeChat group.
While replying to the message, he responded to Wang Ju: "It can't be considered a trap, it's just... an occasional discussion about distribution ideas in economic development."
Wang Ju stopped scrolling on her phone, paused for a few seconds, and looked at Lin Man: "Tomorrow is the last day of the exhibition. Are you planning to rush back overnight after the exhibition ends, or wait here for two days?"
"I need to get back right away." Lin Man stretched and raised his hands. "I have appointments with Professor Qin from Ocean University and Professor Ma from Agricultural University. I need to take them there first."
"And those two orders I have need to be expedited. In short, I still have a lot of work to do."
"What about you? Are you planning to go back to Shanghai first?"
"Yes." Wang Ju changed her posture again and put her phone in front of her: "I've been out for many days, I have to go back to check in, and I also have to have a good talk with my third uncle. There are some things I can't handle."
Lin Man knew what Wang Ju was talking about. He put down his phone, took out the company seal from his briefcase, and then took out two A4 sheets of paper.
I picked up the pen and started writing on the A4 paper.
In less than 20 minutes, Lin Man placed two handwritten share certificates, stamped with official seals, in front of Wang Ju: "This 10% is yours."
"This 5% is for your third uncle."
Lin Man's generosity startled Wang Ju, who was still scrolling through his phone. He quickly moved aside, saying, "Aren't you giving a little too much?"
"Not bad!" Lin Man pushed the equity distribution agreement a little closer to Wang Ju:
"Everything in the world needs balance, doesn't it?"
"You're quite the master of balancing things!" Wang Ju commented, reaching out to take the two equity distribution documents, glancing at them before casually stuffing them into her briefcase, and then continuing to scroll through her phone.
After scrolling for a while, he held his phone up to Lin Man's face: "Come and see the stories these uncultured people have made up."
"A female top scorer in the college entrance examination scored a perfect 750 points, but the village chief of her village was an amateur scientist who was jealous of her perfect score. He sent people to intercept her admission notice to Wudaokou, preventing her from going to school."
"They locked the top scholar in his house, seized his inventions, and used them to make dirty money."
"And this one, the top female student couldn't afford the tuition, so she had to go to a private college."
"To be honest, anyone with a brain would crash after seeing this title."
Hearing Wang Ju's mockery, Lin Man, who had just finished his work, also turned to look at his phone screen. There are crazy people every year, but this is the first time he has seen someone as crazy as this.
He needs to find out today which platform came up with such an outrageous plot in the novel. He needs to take a look and study it.
In the future, when facing those little troublemakers in the village, I will be able to apply the same principles to other situations.
But when his gaze fell on Wang Ju's phone screen and he clearly saw the profile picture of the Douyin account, the people in the video, and the scenery, he was completely stunned.
He recognized the profile picture!
He knew that person too!
He was even more familiar with the scenery that appeared in the video!
That's the alleyway in front of his house!
Just then, amidst the mournful background music, a sharp wail rang out:
"Uncles and elders, I'll never do it again! I just want to study, I really just want to study! Please, please let me go! I don't want anything else, I just want to study!"
"I'll do anything as long as you let me study!"
