Ding Shilei's eyes were slightly cold and he asked stiffly: "Then what do you want?"

He has already taken over the job, and it would be unreasonable not to do it for others.

He had to use the wood, and he also saw that these people were not just here to prevent him from using the trees in the back mountain.

After listening to Ding Shilei's words, those people looked at each other, and some of them had smiles on their faces.

"The trees in the back hill belong to everyone. If you want to use them, you have to pay."

One of them said what everyone was thinking.

Ding Shilei frowned slightly, "I remember that many people used to use trees from the back hill."

"Why don't others have to pay, but I have to pay when I use it?"

Ding Shilei's question made everyone stunned, and they all looked at each other for a moment.

These people did not take advantage of Ding Shilei, and they were jealous of Ding Shilei's money.

They just thought of this and wanted to get some benefits from Ding Shilei.

Everyone winked at each other to see if anyone had any other ideas.

Suddenly, someone's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said loudly: "In the past, it was what every family needed, and they didn't use much.

The more you use it, the more money you will get."

Hearing this, the others thought it was right and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, we didn't ask you for money for the tables and chairs you made."

This person seemed to be trying to get Ding Shilei to agree with his statement.

Ding Shilei did not change what they said, "You mean, it will be fine if the villagers use it for their own use?"

Everyone looked at each other and didn't think there was anything wrong with what Ding Shilei said.

"Yes, you can use it at home."

Ding Shilei then asked: "Since it can be used at home, isn't what I make for the villagers just for their own use?

I just do it for them and charge some labor fees, so I don’t have to pay for it.”

this……

For a moment, everyone was at a loss for ideas. After thinking about it, Ding Shilei's words did make sense.

When they didn't know what to do, Ding Shilei said again: "If you insist on me paying, that's fine.

At worst, I'll just ask the person who asked me to do carpentry work."

Anyway, it's impossible to get him to pay.

Hearing this, everyone's expressions became even worse.

Not to mention that those people who asked Ding Shilei to do carpentry would definitely not be willing, and what if they also use Ding Shilei to do carpentry in the future.

At that time, they will have to spend more money.

Everyone is not stupid. Even if they don't make furniture themselves, they don't dare to let Ding Shilei pay for it.

When everyone was undecided and thought it would be futile, Shen Dong walked in.

Shen Dong looked at Ding Shilei intently for a while, with anger, pity, and appreciation in his eyes.

"Xiao Ding, I know everything about you." Shen Dong said coldly.

Ding Shilei did not respond, just waiting silently for the follow-up.

Shen Dong looked at the others, and finally looked directly at Ding Shilei and said, "As the village chief, I have the final say on this matter. Do you have any objections?"

Ding Shilei was stunned, he didn't expect Shen Dong to say that.

But the others were very happy and looked excited. They thought the village chief was biased towards them.

Ding Shilei knew not to lose Shen Dong's face.

"Okay, just listen to the village chief."

Shen Dong smiled faintly, then turned to the others and asked, "What about you?"

"We all listen to the village chief."

"Yes, whatever the village chief says is true."

Everyone responded one after another.

"Okay." Shen Dong interrupted everyone, "Since everyone listens to me, I will tell you what I think."

"Xiao Ding is right, people in the village don't have to pay to use the trees in the back hill.

Of course, Xiao Ding doesn't need to pay for doing carpentry work for the villagers.
