Chapter 948 Qi Ke's Order Meeting ([-])
The more Qi Ke listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. He felt that the father and son were talking about food for other purposes, so they turned their eyes to Bai Qing. Seeing this, General Bai stopped talking and concentrated on eating.

"Master Qian, don't you have something to tell me?"

"Uh..." Bai Qing seemed to be concentrating on eating taro balls, and felt his skin tense suddenly when he was called out, "Actually, it's not a big deal."

"Mr. Qian is sitting tense, as if there are nails on the chair, making you restless. Is there something wrong with our cooperation?"

General Bai, who had just put a piece of fried chicken in his mouth, silently gave a thumbs up, appreciating Qi Ke's observation and analysis ability very much.

"Uh, that's what..." Bai Qing put down the bowl in his hand, afraid that he would accidentally drop it, "The three villages opposite the factory haven't talked about it yet."

"Didn't talk about it?" Qi Ke quickly recalled, remembering what he had entrusted to Bai Qing, this young master volunteered to be responsible for negotiating with the villagers.

"It's hard to talk about. I seem to have said at the beginning that the villagers are not the military households of our Bai family army, so they are not so obedient."

"Where is the failure? The price cannot be negotiated?"

"Well, I've checked. Those three villages don't seem to be next to each other, but there are only three villages in that area. They have been married to each other all the year round. They are related to each other. They unite to raise the price. Every time it's time to sign a contract, they turn their faces against each other. Admit it." Bai Qing spread his hands, "The family didn't talk about it."

"It's hard work, Mr. Qian. It's fine if it doesn't work out. If this kind of village wants to do it, the whole village has to do it together. It can't just be done by three or two families, otherwise those few families will be retaliated by the whole village."

Qi Ke had been mentally prepared for such a result. If the negotiation had been completed early, Bai Qing would have announced the good news to her. If there is no news, it is not going well.

"These villages have not been negotiated, and the factory is about to start again. Will the food expenses of the female workers increase?"

"Others are fine. Fresh vegetables will be affected a bit. Originally, I wanted to talk about those three villages. They are not far from the Thousand Households. The sum of both sides is enough to consume the vegetables and meat produced by the village every day. Since the villagers don't want It’s fine to make money, there’s no reason for us to beg them to make money.”

"Tell me before you officially start work, I'll send a team over there, in case someone makes a mistake."

"Someone wants to make a mistake about the factory? Are you talking about those villagers? Do they have the guts?" Qi Ke frowned slightly. If someone wants to make trouble without seeing the factory start properly, then she has to make some preparations.

"It's not necessarily those villagers. They know that the factory belongs to the Bai family's army, but it's just in case." Bai Qing didn't want to tell Qi Ke that the tide of refugees was moving. The observation found that there is no definite evidence yet, what if the refugees stopped before reaching Donglin County.

Qi Ke stared at Bai Qing in silence, and Bai Qing's back was hairy from her staring, while General Bai ate in silence, and he slowly savored a large plate of various snacks comfortably.

"Why are you staring at me like that? I have flowers on my face?" Bai Qing forced himself to calm down, touched his face, and joked.

"The three villages across the river are all poor people who have been poor for eighteen generations. The poor only care about immediate interests, so they go back and forth in negotiations. They are bold when they are bold, and timid when they are bold. They know that the factory is a military industry. It is not very courageous to make trouble or even forcibly conflict, but Mr. Qian has been emphasizing in words and gestures just in case, so, excluding these villagers, the factory may be attacked by more aggressive outsiders?"

Bai Qing: "...!"

General Bai: Eat, eat, eat, expressionless.
