Chapter 187
The people in the house exchanged looks . Lin Dongshi showed them a wry smile, "This is the first time I'm seeing a village chief that washes his hands of such matters . "
"I think it's great . At least he isn't bossy and respects others," said Luo Li .
Lin Dongshi curled his lips and did not say a word .
Outside, Wang Yougui explained the situation to Fangzheng, "Fangzheng, there is a film production company in the province . If they were to film on Mt . One Finger, it would become famous! When the time comes, our village will also bask in your limelight . There will be tourists that will bring world-shattering changes to our village . At the very least, every family will enjoy better days . "
"Patron Wang, what do you think?" asked Fangzheng .
"What I think? Of course it's best to let them film . This is like having something fall into your lap, best to look a gift horse in the mouth . "
"This Penniless Monk does not have any misgivings . As long as the monastery's quietness is not disturbed, they are free to do as they wish . "
Fangzheng was naturally happy to help the villagers . However, he could not give the go ahead if these people would end up causing trouble .
Wang Yougui understood Fangzheng's apprehensions . He had learned his lesson from the Calligraphy Association episode . Therefore, he patted himself on the chest, "Don't worry . Leave this matter to me! The rules will be made clear . If they dare cause trouble, we will get them to scram . We won't take their business . How about it?"
"Then, This Penniless Monk will defer to you, nor does This Penniless Monk wish to be bothered by it . " Fangzheng spoke his mind . Firstly, he did not understand the intricacies and secondly, an answer on the farming evaded him despite thinking on it for days . He was in no mood to be involved in such worldly matters .
Wang Yougui was overjoyed . He hung up and returned to discuss the contract .
Wang Yougui's requests were not demanding . Other than not disturbing the monastery's peace, the filming crew's board and lodging needed to be provided by the village . The village did not ask them for an exorbitant price either . The price was fair and hygiene was guaranteed, etc . . .
Director Yu saw how pragmatic Wang Yougui was and did not plant any legal loopholes he could exploit . Everything was done properly and he was happy with the results . Both sides clicked and everything was settled .
When Director Yu left the village, he even chuckled and twirled his mustache while saying, "This is the first time I've encountered such an honest village . "
Lin Dongshi added, "Indeed . But the locations we filmed in the past had mostly merchants, not villagers . It's normal for them to be snobbish . "
Old Tao nodded . "This is the countryside . The people are honest . This is the first place I've encountered that has only raised such trivial requests . Furthermore, they did not even try to cheat us . "
"It will be good if humans are all this simple . . . Everyone will be more relaxed . " Director Yu stretched his back and leaned back into his seat . He closed his eyes, "Inform the crew to make the preparations . "
"Alright!" Lin Dongshi responded before sending the news .
As for Fangzheng, he was sitting by the door in a daze .
"Mountain is the mountain, water is water . . . What does this mean? What has this got to do with farming?" Fangzheng scratched his head and he shook it, annoyed .
"Squeak . " Squirrel jumped onto Fangzheng's shoulder from the wall . Seeing how disheartened Fangzheng looked, he generously gave Fangzheng a pine nut for the first time .
Fangzheng rubbed the little fellow's head, "Thank you . "
