Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 437 Doing Good Deeds Without Seeking Recognition

Guanglin Town, Town Government Courtyard entrance.

It was now past nine o'clock in the evening. Under normal circumstances, there would hardly be anyone around, and the lights inside the Town Government Courtyard would have been long extinguished.

But today, the Town Government Courtyard was ablaze with light, and more than two thousand people had gathered at its entrance, swarming in a dense crowd.

Almost every person was holding a torch, seemingly illuminating the entire night sky.

Fortunately, the open space in front of the town government was large enough; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to accommodate so many people.

The noise on the scene was deafening, many times busier than a vegetable market.

The town government staff ran back and forth, continuously shouting and trying to persuade.

"Fellow villagers, I've already reported your demands to the higher authorities. Please go back home for now, and we will definitely give you a satisfactory response."

"Folks, as for what kind of person Mr. Tang is, let's not discuss that now. But I can clearly tell you, he has not been arrested by the police. Please rest assured, we will properly solve his problems. Can you go back home first?"

"Villagers, it's already past nine o'clock. Usually, at this time, everyone would be resting. Please go back home, and we can talk about any issues tomorrow, okay?"

"Folks..."

However, the staff's throats were almost hoarse from shouting, but the villagers simply wouldn't listen.

An old man grabbed the hand of a staff member and said, "Young man, it's not that we are being unreasonable. You're well aware of our living conditions. If it weren't for Mr. Tang, I wouldn't have survived until now, and my grandson wouldn't have been able to go to school. We can't just ignore it if something has happened to Mr. Tang."

The staff member really wanted to say that it was all Tang Zhen Shan's deliberate doing, to have them come out and help him escape legal punishment.

But saying that now would definitely provoke public anger, so he could only respond patiently, "Grandpa, I know, but Mr. Tang hasn't been arrested, and besides, this matter has nothing to do with our town government."

The old man said, "I know, but they said Mr. Tang has been framed, and it is very likely that he will be arrested. If he is taken away, he might even die. We absolutely cannot let anyone harm Mr. Tang. You are the officials; we come to you!"

The staff member could only give a bitter smile in response.

This Tang Zhen Shan really knew how to play dirty.

He wanted to use the public to pressure the officials into letting him go.

Feng Lei stood in the distance, watching this scene with a slight smile, a hint of smugness on his face.

He was very satisfied with this outcome.

As long as the villagers were blocking the place, the authorities would inevitably have to let Tang Zhen Shan go in the end.

It had to be said, Tang Zhen Shan's methods were truly impressive.

This was the first time Feng Lei had seen someone play this kind of card.

No wonder he was able to lead the Tang Family to become the leader of the Eight Great Families. This ability was indeed not fake.

Such strategies, there were probably not many who could think of them, and even if they did, hardly anyone would act on them.

But Tang Zhen Shan just did it, and now it was coming in handy.

Feng Lei's admiration for Tang Zhen Shan was as endless as a river.

Just as he was silently admiring Tang Zhen Shan, an SUV pulled up and stopped at the entrance to the Town Government Courtyard.

"Who's this?"

Seeing the car, Feng Lei felt an ominous premonition rise within him.

Two men in suits got out of the car.

They walked to the back of the car and opened the trunk.

Instantly, Feng Lei was stunned.

The scene was illuminated by torches and lights.

It was possible to see clearly that the SUV's trunk was filled with bright red hundred-yuan bills.

Piled in bundles, neatly arranged.

At a glance, it looked to be about twenty or thirty million.

The arrival of this car was quite abrupt, drawing the eyes of everyone present.

Not just Feng Lei saw it, but the town government staff and villagers all saw it too.

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were wide with shock.

Many villagers even let out short, labored breaths, for they had never seen so much money before.

Forget seeing so much cash, most people had never even seen a photograph of this much cash.

The sight of so much money before their very eyes left all the villagers utterly overwhelmed.

Though shocked, the villagers didn't entertain the idea of grabbing the money.

There were even a few sturdy men who walked up to the side of the SUV.

From their stance, it seemed as though they intended to guard the money to prevent others from snatching it.

It must be said that the simple and honest local customs were a source of comfort and moved the town government staff.

Just now, when the town government staff saw so much money, their first thought was that this was bad.

If the villagers couldn't resist grabbing the money, there was bound to be a crush and people might even die.

In that case, the situation would escalate.

At this moment, one of the men in a suit took out a megaphone and shouted to everyone, "My fellow villagers of Guanglin Town, we have come to give you money!"

What!

All the villagers were stunned.

Who was so kind-hearted to be sending money to them late at night?

The faces of the villagers were filled with confusion.

The man in the suit continued, "My fellow villagers, I speak the truth. Our boss, upon learning that this is a nationally ranked impoverished town, has been concerned about your situation. He sent us to deliver money today; everyone gets a share, ten thousand each, and you can receive it right now."

After saying this, the man in the suit grabbed a few bundles of cash and stuffed them into the hands of the sturdy men who had come to guard the money, "This is for you, ten thousand each."

Then, he picked up a few more bundles and stuffed them into the hands of several villagers at the forefront, "This is for you, ten thousand each."

The villagers who received the money were so excited they were trembling.

The man in the suit also asked the sturdy men guarding the money to help distribute it.

Soon, the money was handed out.

Every person present counted as one, and each got ten thousand yuan.

Some staff members walked over and checked the money, realizing it was indeed real.

"It's really ten thousand yuan!" the town government staff exclaimed in excitement.

"Ten thousand yuan, we don't even make that in a year."

"Young man, who is your boss? We want to properly thank him."

"Right, right, we always remember anyone who is kind to us. Tell us your boss's name."

"Our boss's identity need not concern everyone. He believes in doing good deeds anonymously. He is a good person, and everyone should agree with what I've just said, right?" said the man with the megaphone.

"Agree, of course, we agree!"

"Yes, anyone who gives us so much money is obviously a good person!"

"If he wasn't a good person, who would be giving away money?"

The villagers nodded one by one, affirming the man in the suit's point.

Not revealing himself and remaining anonymous yet giving ten thousand yuan to each person.

Such generosity was something even Tang Zhen Shan, whom they regarded as a living bodhisattva, couldn't match with this boss.

Seeing the villagers' spirits rise, the man in the suit felt it was about time and continued, "Folks, our boss had us come here today to distribute money for two reasons. First, he is concerned about you all, and second, there is something he wants to discuss with you and hopes that you will agree."

An influential village chief stepped forward and said, "Young man, your boss is a good person, giving us money. Just say what he needs us to do. There's no need to talk about discussing anything. As long as it's within our power, we will certainly agree!"

The other villagers were quick to express their agreement.

The man in the suit smiled and said, "Old man, this matter still needs to be discussed."

The village chief asked, "Young man, you tell us, what does your boss want us to do?"
