Chapter 95

After Ye Bufan left the house, he brought Qin Chuchu to the hotel entrance. Ouyang Lan was sitting under a big tree waiting for his news. When she saw the two of them, she stood up abruptly.

Looking at Qin Chuchu, she said, "Son, is this the girl you went on a blind date with? I told you, this girl would definitely be great. Look how beautiful she is, like a fairy..."

Ye Bufan said, "Mom, this is Qin Chuchu, my girlfriend, not the one from the blind date."

It was Qin Chuchu's first time meeting the family, and she was extremely nervous, fidgeting with the hem of her clothes. She shyly said, "Auntie, my name is Qin Chuchu, and I'm Xiaofan's girlfriend."

"Really Xiaofan's girlfriend!"

Ouyang Lan held Qin Chuchu's hand, her eyes full of affection, overjoyed.

Then she said with some concern, "Xiaofan, are you sure you're not fooling me?"

"Of course not, this is my girlfriend," Ye Bufan said.

"Great, really great!" Ouyang Lan said, then scolded, "You naughty boy, you didn't tell me about such a good girlfriend earlier, making me arrange blind dates for you everywhere."

"I told you, but you didn't believe me," Ye Bufan said. "Mom, you've been following me around all day, are you hungry? Let's go have lunch."

After saying that, the three of them went to the VIP room arranged by Ma Jiuye. The room wasn't very large but was extremely luxurious, usually not open to the public.

Ye Bufan declined the dishes arranged by Ma Jiuye and ordered some of his mother's favorites. Then the three of them sat down to eat.

Ouyang Lan looked at Qin Chuchu, liking her more and more, feeling her warmth. Qin Chuchu also relaxed, and the two of them chatted happily.

At this moment, Ye Bufan's phone in his pocket rang. It was Guan Dongping calling.

After answering the call, Guan Dongping said anxiously, "Boss, I've gathered all the workers as you instructed, but they are all afraid to enter the Peach Blossom Community. Should you come over?"

After breaking the Yin-Yang聚煞阵 (Yin-Yang聚煞阵 is a term that doesn't have a direct English translation, but it refers to a mystical formation or array) yesterday, Ye Bufan had called Guan Dongping and asked him to organize the workers to enter the community today.

"Wait a moment, I'll be right there."

After hanging up, he said to Qin Chuchu and Ouyang Lan, "Chuchu, Mom, you two eat first, I have something to take care of."

Ouyang Lan smiled, "Go ahead, with Chuchu here to keep me company, you can go wherever you want."

Ye Bufan said with a bitter face, "You're favoring your daughter-in-law over your son."

Qin Chuchu said, "You go ahead, I'll take Auntie shopping later. I'll take good care of her today."

She was a very smart girl, knowing that Ye Bufan was extremely filial. As long as she made Ouyang Lan happy, she could secure a place in this man's heart.

Ye Bufan said goodbye to the two of them and, as he walked out of the VIP room, saw Ma Jiuye fawningly approaching.

"Mr. Ye, is there anything else you need?"

"Nothing, I have to go out for a bit."

While walking forward, Ye Bufan said, "What about those people? How are they?"

"Mr. Ye, as soon as you left, they started arguing over the meal expenses. In the end, they split the bill, barely managing to pay, and just left," Ma Jiuye said, then added flatteringly, "Did they offend you? Should I arrange for someone to teach them a lesson?"

Ye Bufan waved his hand and said, "No, this will be a lesson for them."

After that, he left the Drunken Jiangnan Hotel, got into his limited-edition Pagani, and headed to the Peach Blossom Community.

As soon as he got in the car, he felt its incredible power. It was truly a luxury among supercars, and with just a light touch of the accelerator, it shot forward like an arrow, with a hundred-meter acceleration that was breathtaking.

Twenty minutes later, he arrived at the entrance of the Peach Blossom Community, where over a hundred workers had already gathered, and Guan Dongping was trying to persuade them.

Seeing him get out of the car, Guan Dongping immediately ran over.

Seeing the Pagani, a look of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice, "Boss, things are a bit difficult. Everyone is afraid of what happened before and doesn't dare to enter the community."

Ye Bufan said, "Is there a way to resolve this quickly?"

Guan Dongping said, "The best way is to increase their pay. I've already tripled their wages."

He had a preliminary plan in mind, but unfortunately, he was no longer the boss and had no authority to decide on wage increases.

"I understand." Ye Bufan walked up to the workers and introduced himself, "My name is Ye Bufan, and I'm your new boss. We need everyone to enter the community and complete the remaining work."

A man in his thirties with a beard stepped forward, clearly the leader of the group.

"Boss, we have no problem working, but this community is too eerie. Several people have already died here. We all come out to earn a living, with families to support. If something happens, our entire families will be ruined."

Ye Bufan said, "I have two points to make. First, this place has been handled by a high expert, and there are no issues. If you don't believe me, I can go in with you.

Second, starting today, your wages will be doubled on top of what Guan Brother has already increased. If anyone has an accident, I will pay 10 million in compensation."

The workers' eyes lit up. The new boss was indeed generous. Guan Dongping had already tripled their wages, and if they were doubled again, it would be a sixfold increase.

This meant that working here for a month would be equivalent to working for six months elsewhere.

Most importantly, if something happened, their families would be taken care of, with 10 million in compensation enough to support them for several generations.

The bearded man said, "Mr. Ye, are you serious?"

"Of course, I will immediately sign a legally binding agreement with everyone, so you don't have to worry about me going back on my word."

"Alright, Mr. Ye, we'll work for you."

As the saying goes, great rewards bring great courage. With Ye Bufan's promise, the workers all agreed, then gathered their tools and entered the community.

"Hey, I feel like this place is different from before, much warmer..."

"Not only warmer, but also very comfortable. Before, my hair would stand on end and I would feel very uneasy here..."

Feeling the changes in the Peach Blossom Community, everyone believed that Ye Bufan was not lying, and that the place had indeed been handled by an expert.

Guan Dongping, who had started from the bottom and had strong organizational skills, quickly got the workers into position, and they began working in the community.

Ye Bufan didn't rush to leave but sat down on a stone in the center of the community.

After a while, Guan Dongping, who had finished his tasks, returned to his side.

"Boss, is everything really okay here?"

Guan Dongping asked in a low voice.

"Of course, I said it before, this will be the most luxurious community in all of Jiangnan, no exceptions," Ye Bufan said.

"I'm relieved to hear that," Guan Dongping sighed in relief, then added, "Boss, according to your latest requirements, a significant amount of additional funding will be needed to complete the community."
