Chapter 389: Chapter 388: Influence

When Peter Brown returned to Green Water Village, he found that the place had completely changed. The entire village was like a large construction site, with construction going on everywhere, even on the mountains.

"Boss Wang is back!"

"Wrong, call him Village Chief Wang, he’s the village chief now."

"Village chief, how did our village suddenly get so many people to invest?"

The villagers surrounded Peter Brown when they saw him.

As the things Peter had done were related to the Cultivation World, ordinary mortals had no idea that he had become a very important figure. In their hearts, Peter was still just a boss.

As Peter looked up at the mountains, he knew in his heart that these were locations occupied by cultivation sects or families.

Originally, the area was full of barren mountains, but now it was completely different. These cultivation sects or families had no shortage of money, and in order to secure a base here, they were fighting to buy or contract the barren mountains. Every mountain had already changed.

When he arrived at Alvin Brown’s house, the old man had already come out and grabbed Peter’s hand: "Peter, what’s going on? Look, all these barren mountains have been contracted by others, and they’ve paid a lot of money. Even the city leaders were alarmed, and they just left yesterday!"

These changes had frightened Alvin Brown, who couldn’t figure out why such things would happen.

When they heard that Peter Brown had returned, the villagers gathered in the yard of Alvin Brown’s house to ask what had happened.

Of course, Peter wouldn’t talk about the Cultivation World, so he just smiled and said, "As you all know, the country is now paying great attention to poverty alleviation and wealth creation. The provincial government is also paying attention to our poverty alleviation here, so they have made a special plan to re-adjust the mountain villages in this area into one large village, with me serving as the village chief. This place is actually a development zone now, with preferential policies and national support. The merchants have seen the benefits here, so they naturally came here to develop."

"Village Chief Wang, can we really develop?"

Looking at the villagers asking questions, Peter said, "I don’t know if we can develop, but I know you all have made a fortune this time, right?"

Hearing this, the villagers laughed.

Alvin Brown said, "Peter, everyone has been contracting land and barren mountains after listening to you. Many businessmen have come to ask for transfers. They’ve made hundreds of thousands at least and even several million at most. Now everyone in our village who listened to you has made a fortune."

"Is there anyone who didn’t listen to me?" Peter asked seriously.

A villager laughed and said, "Village Chief Wang, a few households really thought you were trying to trick us, so they refused to contract land. Now they’re regretting it so much!"

Peter sighed, "This is fate. You all are the ones with good fortune. Now that you’ve made a fortune, I suggest you start some small businesses in the village, preferably agritainment. After the village is unified and planned, there will be a commercial street. If you believe in me, you can invest and build some Shops and Inns. Afterward, you’ll make a fortune just by sitting as more people come."

"Alright, we’ll wait for your words, Village Chief Wang. Now that you’re speaking for us, we can rest assured."

"Village Chief Wang, honestly, our village has been changing every day since you came. Now everyone has made a fortune, and it’s proven that listening to you was the right decision."

Alvin Brown said, "Peter, there are six families who haven’t earned any money this time. They’ve been asking me every day about what to do, and I don’t know what to do. What do you think we should do?"

Peter thought for a moment and said, "With the development here, there will be many opportunities to make money in the future. If they listen to me, it won’t be hard for them to make money."

As they were talking, six middle-aged people entered timidly.

Alvin Brown whispered, "It’s their six families."

Peter waved for them to sit down and saw that they looked very shrewd.

Knowing this, Peter shook his head secretly. Oftentimes, being too clever is counterproductive, and this was probably true for these people.

"Village Chief Wang..."

As the leading person tried to say something, a villager loudly interrupted, "Albert Lee, you’ve been so shrewd all your life, now you’ve got yourself in a mess, huh?"

"And you, Benjamin Carter, your daughter is working in the provincial capital and sent some money back. You should have had the ability to contract the land more than anyone else. But in the end, you’ve been privately saying that Village Chief Wang has ill intentions and wants to deceive everyone of their money. Now, I have to ask, who has Village Chief Wang deceived?"

Hearing the villagers’ accusations, Peter looked at Benjamin Carter.

At this time, Benjamin Carter was embarrassed and said, "Everyone, don’t mention it anymore. I came specifically to apologize to Village Chief Wang today. Village chief, it’s all my fault, you can yell at or hit me, I was wrong!"

Peter said, "It’s good to be smart, but don’t be too smart. I just don’t understand, you guys didn’t have money, and I was willing to lend you money to contract the mountains and land. I paid the money in cash, what do I want to deceive you of?"

Benjamin Carter buried his head even lower at these words.

"Exactly, Village Chief Wang lent us money for us to make a fortune. I can’t figure out how anyone could accuse him of scamming us."

At this time, several middle-aged women rushed in, and they didn’t mince words. As soon as they entered, they knelt down in front of Peter and said, "Village Chief Wang, it’s all our damn family’s fault. We were wrong. Please show us the right way. From now on, we’ll follow you, and anyone who speaks ill of you, we’ll curse them to death."

Peter smiled and said, "You all get up, there’s no need for this."

Alvin Brown snorted, "What are you doing? Get up, now! You several families have always been troublemakers in the village, and you’ve bad-mouthed Peter a lot behind his back. Now that you see everyone else making a fortune, you’re envious, aren’t you? Hmph, as you don’t change, who will care about you!"

Alvin Brown was a respected person, and after scolding them, the people had to stand up awkwardly.

Peter didn’t mind their actions and said earnestly, "Since you’ve missed one opportunity, think about seizing the second one. When the village unifies the planning of the commercial street here, you can still borrow money from me. By that time, with shops and inns, you can make a fortune."

At this moment, the several families nodded their heads non-stop.
