"That’s good, strength in numbers. If we all disagree together, then this matter is meaningful," Wang Yong nodded.

"Yes, but little brother, this matter might require some help from you. Our family somewhat has a say in the village. You should speak at the village office and try to gather more people. We must strive to do that," Wang Hong realized if it were only her family opposing, it’d be somewhat insufficient.

After all, there are only six or seven households combined.

We still need to gain support from other people, so that we can completely stop the Gu Family from acquiring Fuling Village’s coal mine.

This reasoning Wang Yong naturally understood as well.

He nodded in agreement immediately.

"Okay, sis. After lunch, I’ll head to the village office in the afternoon and try to help rally support," Wang Yong nodded again, agreeing.

Seeing Wang Yong agree, Wang Hong felt completely reassured.

As for Chen Yang, she trusted him one hundred and eighty percent. Though she was a woman, she knew Chen Yang wouldn’t harm them or trick them.

Therefore, Wang Hong diligently followed Chen Yang’s advice and persuaded her family’s relatives.

Additionally, she had indeed seen how the Gu Family operates.

The most typical case was Widow Wei.

Greedy for immediate benefits, she cooperated with the Gu Family, ending up in such a miserable situation, truly regrettable.

"Little brother, I’m not trying to scare you; you must firmly refuse. This is about the future of Liuhe Village, we can’t be sloppy," even though Wang Yong agreed, Wang Hong couldn’t help but remind him.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yong smiled slightly, "Sis, don’t worry. I can handle this matter. Besides, I also heard about the situation in your village."

Saying this, he glanced towards Chen Yang and said, "I also trust Chen Yang’s brother’s abilities. I feel confident cooperating with him."

"Good, good, this is the best,"

Wang Hong felt relieved hearing Wang Yong’s affirmation, and stopped discussing the matter.

Instead, she chatted with her younger brother about family matters.

Topics like why he still hasn’t found a wife yet.

The atmosphere at home was very relaxed.

By noon, Chen Yang and Wang Jingman had lunch together at Wang Hong’s home.

After lunch, without resting, Wang Yong immediately took action.

After greeting Chen Yang and Wang Hong, he headed to the village office to report the situation.

Not only him, but at that moment, many households in Fuling Village had grown men heading to the village office.

"Aunt Wang, sitting at home is boring; why don’t we go for a walk and check out other aunt’s situations?"

After Wang Yong left, Chen Yang couldn’t sit still and wanted to go out for a walk, to see Fuling Village and understand how other families were doing.

It’s easy to talk at Wang Hong’s home, but it doesn’t mean other families are easy to communicate with.

After all, many people focus on immediate benefits.

People from the mountains, poor all their lives.

Suddenly, tens of thousands of cash is placed in front, there are naturally many who are tempted.

So there are many who might ignore advice and only care about immediate gains.

Concerning these people, Chen Yang needed to personally persuade them.

If it were other businesses, he might not care as much, but this mine is crucial to him, so he must strive hard.

"Great, Yang Zi. I haven’t returned for a while, let’s go for a walk,"

Wang Hong immediately stood up upon hearing, taking Chen Yang and Wang Jingman out.

Fuling Village is large, the area is wide.

Compared to Lihe Village, it’s much larger.

Of course, this is compared to the former Lihe Village.

The current Lihe Village is incomparable to this Fuling Village.

After leaving Wang Hong’s family, the first stop was Aunt Zhang’s family located at the village head.

At Aunt Zhang’s home, Chen Yang sat for a while and inquired with Aunt Zhang.

Found that her family didn’t have any issues and agreed to refuse signatures, and would refuse to sell the village coal mine to the Gu Family as well.

Knowing everything went smoothly, Chen Yang and Wang Hong didn’t linger at Aunt Zhang’s, and continued to other families.

After visiting all, the results made Chen Yang very satisfied; all families agreed.

Next, we must see how Wang Yong and the others speak at the village office.

If they can persuade most villagers, then the matter is practically certain.

But unexpectedly, the issue arose here.

After walking around, Chen Yang and Wang Hong happened to meet Wang Yong returning from the village office.

Seeing Wang Yong return, Wang Hong naturally inquired about the situation immediately.

"Little brother, how’s the situation in the village office? What did everyone say?" Wang Hong asked concernedly.

Wang Yong’s expression was hard to read.

"Sis, the village opinion is very divided. There are quite a few willing to support us, but many are tempted by immediate gains. The meeting at the village office went for a long time without a conclusion," Wang Yong explained.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hong’s expression became apprehensive.

"Ah? How can it be this way? The reasoning is clear, why are there still people disagreeing?" Wang Hong couldn’t understand.

Earlier, she had stated the reasoning clearly to Wang Yong, he should have also shared it with other villagers.

How could it be possible there’re many disagreeing? She really couldn’t comprehend it.

"Sis, I believe you, but not everyone does. They’re saying they’ll follow directives from above, sell the village coal mine to whoever the leaders arrange, as long as the price is fitting,"

Wang Yong said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Wang Hong understood.

Her family might listen to her, but there are many households in Fuling Village. Though some have good relationships with them, many relationships are fairly typical.

Therefore, it really isn’t straightforward to accomplish this matter.

"Yang Zi, what’s your take on this matter? What should be our next step?" Wang Hong supported Chen Yang, but facing this, she was at a loss.

She needed to see Chen Yang’s view.

Chen Yang paused and then turned towards Wang Yong asking, "Wang Yong, what’s the village mayor’s stance?"

"Chen Yang, don’t even mention it. The mayor is among those uneasy to move. His family encountered some issues, urgently needing money, so he firmly supports directives from above, saying the village will sell the coal mine to whoever buys it," Wang Yong said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang immediately recognized the root of the problem.

Other villagers couldn’t realistically persuade house by house, but influencing the mayor’s household was crucial.

By successfully persuading the mayor, many others could be influenced.

After all, being the mayor indicates he holds significant influence in the village. Securing him implies securing a large group.

"Wang Yong, could you accompany me to visit the mayor? I’ll personally speak with him," Chen Yang contemplated and proposed.

Wang Yong, hearing this, was somewhat taken aback, "Chen Yang, our mayor’s temper isn’t good. He was on edge during the meeting, isn’t now a bad time?"

"It’s fine, I’ll just chat, I know what I’m doing," Chen Yang casually gestured, showing no concern.

Seeing this, Wang Yong hesitated, looking towards Wang Hong.

After Wang Hong nodded, he agreed.
