C126 No matchmaker for the third generation (1/2)
”You were chosen as the village head, uncle?” Zhou Hao said in shock, but he immediately understood.
In fact, there were two reasons why the villagers of Huayu Village wanted to choose Yan Mudong and Yue Yang as their village chiefs.
The first was the Wei Family who had always been a force in the Huayu Village. The biggest reason for their destruction was precisely because of the Yan Family.
Especially when the villagers saw that the Yan family had good relations with the troops, and had a backer, Yan Mudong or Yan Munan, after becoming the village chief, would be extremely beneficial to the village.
The other reason was because Yan Mudong and Yan Munan both had extremely honest and honest personalities, and weren't as despotic as Wei Qishou. They had a very good reputation within the Huayu Village.
Now, the entire Huayu Village knew that the Yan Clan was up to no good. Even the ”local emperor”, the Wei Clan, had been defeated, and the reputation of the Yan Clan in the Huayu Village had reached an extremely high level.
Furthermore, Zhou Hao thought that his two uncles becoming village elders with Huayu Village would also be beneficial, especially when it came to managing the orchard and obtaining ownership of the mountain spring water.
Therefore, Zhou Hao asked, ”First Uncle, what do you think of Second Uncle?”
”Mu Nan said he doesn't want to be it.” Yan Mudong laughed and said. He said that Yan Munan did not want to be the village chief, which indirectly meant that he was interested in the village chief position.
However, Zhou Hao still held high hopes for his uncle, because the village elder of Huayu Village could not be considered a staff member.
So he could not be considered an official, and did not have to be like the people in the Xiang City government who often had to struggle and struggle in the government.
had also been bullied by Wei Qisheng before, so he knew that being a village head must not be bullied by the villagers.
”If you're interested, First Uncle, I'm very supportive. After all, you're much better than Wei Qishou.”
Zhou Hao laughed: ”Then if you want to choose the village chief, what procedures do you need?”
Hearing that Zhou Hao would support him, Yan Mudong was very happy. After all, he already knew that his nephew was capable, and was much more experienced with others than his two brothers.
He continued, ”It's very simple. As long as we get the support of more than half of the villagers and then inform the people in the town government, we can settle this matter after they file a document.”
Zhou Hao nodded, ”It's indeed simple.”
With the current situation, it would not be difficult for Yan Mudong to obtain the support of more than half of the villagers, and on the town's government side, as long as they spent some money to clear the way, it would not be a problem.
Zhou Hao said: ”Alright, First Uncle, just go fight for it. I will settle the rest for you.”
Then, with Zhou Hao's support, the news of Yan Mudong wanting to select a village head spread through the Huayu Village.
Zhou Hao got Yan Mudong to set up a banquet with a hundred tables in the Huayu Village Ancestral Hall and invited everyone in the village.
His grandparents were very happy that Yan Mudong was going to choose the village chief. Although he wouldn't get a salary like a public servant, he had a reputation in the village.
The villagers were also very supportive of Yan Mudong. After all, it was their Yan Clan that had gotten rid of the Wei father and son duo's Huayu Village.
The villagers all signed their names on the consent forms.
Zhou Hao also went to the bank outside to take out some cash. As long as they agreed to Yan Mudong becoming the village head, Zhou Hao would give them a 100 yuan red packet.
In Huayu Village, a hundred yuan was already not a small amount of money, furthermore, the villagers were wholeheartedly supporting Yan Mudong.
This time, everyone knew that Yan Clan's daughter, Yan Tong, had returned with a large sum of money.
Especially after they saw the tall and handsome Zhou Hao, many of the village matchmakers' eyes lit up, and the girls who were waiting to be married off all turned their attention to Zhou Hao.
Following that, with the help of the Battalion Commander, Zhou Hao allowed the Town Security to approve the relevant documents immediately, allowing Yan Mudong, the village chief, to carry out the agreement.
Within a single day, Yan Mudong went from being an ordinary villager who still owed Wei Qishou a lot of money, and with a shake of his body, he became the dignified village chief of the Huayu Village.
The hundred tables of banquets arranged in the ancestral hall and the red packets given to the villagers had cost Zhou Hao a total of more than three hundred thousand.
Yan Mudong originally wanted to take out the money from the account that Zhou Hao gave him, but he was rejected by him.
”Xiao Hao, you gave me a million yuan, I already do not know how to thank you anymore.
What am I supposed to do now that you've spent so much money to get me elected? ” Yan Mudong said to Zhou Hao.
Zhou Hao smiled and said, ”I already said that I would support you as the village chief, so naturally, I don't need you to pay me back.
Uncle, if you continue to act this way, you will no longer treat Xiao Hao as your family. ”
Seeing that Zhou Hao had already said that, Yan Mudong had no choice but to say more.
However, he knew that Zhou Hao was interested in the village's fruit trees and the mountain spring water, so he personally brought Zhou Hao to the mountain peak around Huayu Village.
