Chapter 346: Successive Attacks
"I heard from the people in Wanlong Village that they have to meet certain standards to participate in the competition. We in Anhe Village don't have so many rules. As long as you register with Uncle Lin and submit a work, you'll be fine."

"Is it that simple?" Village Chief Lin originally thought that Lin Ge would be able to invite a TV station to promote their village like Li Luo did, but now, it's just the village's own entertainment, which makes Village Chief Lin a little depressed.

Looking at the prosperity of Wanlong Village, he was really envious!

"Xiao Lin, are you going to hand in your work to me? I don't know anything about embroidery. Even if you ask me to hand it in, I don't know whether the craftsmanship is good or not."

"Of course I will find a professional master for this. Uncle Lin, don't worry. I won't bother you with this little thing. I will come back when the time is right."

"This money is for the purchase of goods for our villagers. Didn't Wanlong Village provide the materials and needles and thread? We don't have so many restrictions. Anyone who needs to purchase these silk threads and fabrics can report to the village chief."

"Village chief, you have to help me remember clearly who purchased these things and keep a good account. I want to see the real things."

Afterwards, Lin Ge handed five hundred yuan to Village Chief Lin, then thought for a while and gave Village Chief Lin another five hundred.

"This amount of money should be enough. There are not as many people in Anhe Village as in Wanlong Village. Even though Wanlong Village gave money to so many people, it only cost one thousand yuan."

"With the little money I give, our village will definitely use better materials than Wanlong Village."

Village chief Lin's eyes widened as he looked at the thick stack of money in his hand. He had worked in Anhe Village for nearly half of his life, and this was the first time he had seen someone so wealthy giving him money.

"Hey, okay, this is just a small matter, I can definitely take care of it for you!"

"That's nothing. Cheng Cheng and I will leave first." Seeing that Village Chief Lin was so polite to him, Lin Ge showed a satisfied smile.

"Wait, Cheng Cheng, your father and your brother have been looking for you these days, why did you go to Xiao Lin?" Village Chief Lin finally had time to educate Cheng Lu.

Cheng Lu's heart tightened and he looked at Lin Ge for help.

"Uncle Lin, I asked Cheng Lu to come to me. Cheng Lu is hardworking and capable. I took her to the city to make a lot of money. I even paid her ten yuan a month!"

After hearing Lin Ge's explanation, Village Chief Lin smiled happily: "So he followed Xiao Ge to get rich! Then I have to talk to Cheng Cheng's father when the time comes, otherwise Cheng Cheng's father will sigh every day, afraid that he will lose Cheng Cheng."

"Uncle Lin, please keep it a secret that Cheng Cheng followed me back today. I don't want Cheng Cheng's father to make trouble with me. Otherwise, I'd better take back the money."

As he spoke, Lin Ge pretended to take money from Village Chief Lin.

Village Chief Lin was not willing to do that. He turned around quickly and put his hand in front of Lin Ge: "Don't worry, I will never tell Cheng Cheng's father!"

After getting the assurance from the village chief, Lin Ge stopped.

On the way back, Cheng Lu was still in shock and kept patting his chest: "It was a close call, Sister Xiaoge. If my dad and brother knew that I followed you to the city, they might not know how to pester me."

"Now I just hope that the village chief can keep this a secret from us."

...Two days later, Village Chief Lin sent someone to give Lin Ge a message, saying that all the money she had given had been used to purchase goods in the village, and that the finished products would be given to Lin Ge in the future.

Lin Ge was so happy that she even smiled more when she was running the clothing store. Later, she went to find Li Ang, hoping that Li Ang could teach her some simple English, including asking Li Ang to be her middleman and help her make connections.

But there are no checkpoints anywhere in Chengdu. It is harder than climbing to the sky to find foreign sellers for the things here. Even if Lin Ge said that he could give Li An money, Li An would not be able to find anyone, let alone help Lin Ge to open up sales.

It was not until Village Chief Lin told him that the embroidery had been completed that Lin Ge felt a little relieved. After all, he was able to recruit a group of talented people, so it was not to be in vain.

However, when Lin Ge took the embroidery in his hand, his face became darker than charcoal.

“Is this all the embroidery I made for one thousand yuan?” Lin Ge threw the embroidery in his hand to the ground and stomped on it twice.

"Uncle Lin, even if it's just a makeshift one, you should at least hand over a complete work, right? Moreover, I gave you all the money, so why is it that the embroidery you handed over is not only of poor quality, but even the stitches and joints of the silk thread are so obvious?"

"And look at this, the threads are obviously old! Do you really think I'm a sucker?"

Village Chief Lin also felt aggrieved: "You said at the beginning that you would see the things you bought, and I actually saw those things. Who knew that the final product would look like this?"

"Later, I found out that they did buy those things and the prices were right. But later, they took those things to the store to return them, and the money ended up in their hands."

After listening to Village Chief Lin's explanation, Lin Ge was so angry that he couldn't speak: "No wonder Anhe Village is poorer than Wanlong Village, it's what they deserve!"

"Xiao Ge, what you said is really too much! I, your uncle, have made no contributions but have worked hard. In the end, I am still the one who gets scolded. Am I not a good person in this world?"

"Can I get my money back? We agreed that you should hand over embroidery, but what did you hand over now? Trash!"

"You're still thinking about making a lot of money, but how can you do it? People in Anhe Village are not destined to enjoy a good life!"

"Xiao Ge, if you don't have the skills, don't take on this job. Our village can't survive on your little money!" Village chief Lin waved his hands, obviously angry.

"If you don't want to live on this little money of mine, then fine, just return the money to me and I'll pretend nothing happened." Lin Ge was also very angry. He had one thousand yuan, and not only was the embroidery gone, but he was also left with the money.

"Li Luo was able to create the embroidery village because she provided needles, thread and fabrics to everyone, and even gave them bonuses. The first prize was 200!"

"The money given to the participants alone is nearly a thousand yuan. If you want to hire a good hand with this thousand yuan, you might as well just lie there with a pillow and have a sweet dream!"

Village Chief Lin's ridicule left Lin Ge speechless. She just didn't want to spend money on buying fabric and create a gimmick, but she didn't expect that in the end, she would lose both the wife and the army.

"Village Chief Lin, if the people of Anhe Village don't strive for success and don't want to make money, then there's no need for me to waste money. From now on, I will no longer lead the people of Anhe Village to make money together."

"Village Chief, I still need to buy cloth and thread. Look at this money..."

While Lin Ge and the village chief were arguing, someone else came to ask the village chief for money.
