Li Lei watched He Lin run out, then turned and stepped forward to exchange a few words with Li Huimin. She then came over, sat down, and said to Lu Yiming, "Tell me what happened when you discussed matters with Chen Mo this morning!"
"Yes, Sixth Young Master!" Seeing that Li Huimin personally wanted to hear his report, Lu Yiming immediately perked up.
He vividly recounted the morning's events, naturally adding plenty about how devoted he was to the public good and how hard he had worked to get things done. But no matter how he spun it, he could not get around the fact that he had been poorly prepared and had failed to outargue Chen Mo. By the end, he was a little embarrassed.
"Oh! So this Chen Mo is quite the talker!" Li Huimin said with a smile.
She merely listened to Lu Yiming's matter and did not take it to heart. This had been intended to disgust Chen Mo in the first place! Still, it would be fine if they could get it done properly.
So Li Huimin asked, "How much was Chen Mo's total contract fee for leasing the village land?"
Lu Yiming had checked this point already and immediately gave the figure.
"Then what would be needed if we took the contract back for the village?"
"We would need to return Chen Mo's contract fee and compensate him for losses according to the contract. In addition, for breaching the contract, we would have to pay the contractor two hundred times the contract fee!" As Lu Yiming spoke, he pulled a photocopy from his pocket and handed it to Li Lei. "I copied this contract from the village archives and happened to keep a copy!"
Frowning, Li Huimin took the photocopy Li Lei handed over.
