An Qingbai smiled.

"Hehe, Uncle Baogen, let's unload all the equipment first!"

An Baogen nodded.

"Yes, yes, let's unload it first! I'll go find a few people!"

After saying that, An Baogen turned around and ran away.

An Qingbai chuckled to himself, thinking it was better not to do it himself, saving him the trouble.

As it turned out, he was wrong. An Baogen suddenly realized, why not use the people who are already there?

"Qingbai, let's just take it off!"

An Qingbai sighed inwardly, wondering how Uncle Baogen had come to his senses so quickly.

Resigned to his fate, he got off the tractor and, together with An Baogen, unloaded all the equipment.

An Zaimin heard the commotion and came out of the brigade headquarters. He was very happy to see that the new equipment had been purchased.

"Old Man An, you did a great job! You actually managed to make the purchase!"

An Qingbai took the money out of his pocket and handed it to An Zaimin.

“Uncle Min, this is the remaining money. The money you approved is not only enough, but there is also a surplus.”

"Okay, thank you and Zhuang Zhiqing for your help! I'll go and put the bill in first!"

An Baogen looked at the new equipment with gratitude and patted An Qingbai on the shoulder.

"Qingbai, thanks! Tell Zhuang Zhiqing that I thank you both on behalf of the brigade!"

An Qingbai smiled.

"You're welcome. Zhimeng and I are both very happy to be able to help the team. I will tell Zhimeng what you mean when I see her."

An Baogen waved his hand.

"Alright, I'll give each of you twenty work points! This is a reward for your contributions to the brigade!"

"Thank you, Uncle Baogen. I'll be going now! I want to tell Zhimeng this good news!"

"Okay, then you go ahead. I also need to think about where would be a good place to put these devices!"

An Qingbai was about to go to the pigsty to look for her when he ran into Zhuang Zhimeng, who was returning from the pigsty.

"Zhizhi, did you return the big flower?"

"Yes, Big Flower has her eye on me! She followed me all the way back!"

Then Zhuang Zhimeng looked around for a moment, then leaned close to An Qingbai and chuckled as she told Qingbai-ge.

"Hehe, Brother Qingbai, you didn't expect this, did you? This morning I only fed Da Hua a little bit of the grass I picked from the warehouse, and it turns out it's now attached to me!"

An Qingbai stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

"Is this why you feed Big Flower grass?"

Zhuang Zhimeng shrugged.

"I didn't expect this either! I should have known better than to feed it! Luckily, I only fed it a little bit, haha, I'm afraid it would become a spirit if it ate any more!"

"What kind of grass is that? Even the big flower loves to eat it so much that it only comes to you?"

Zhuang Zhimeng took a handful of grass from the warehouse and handed it to Qingbai.

"Hey, this is the grass! The warehouse only has one description of this grass: the grass that pigs love to eat."

I was thinking of letting Dahua try it and see how much she liked it.

An Qingbai took the grass and examined it from all angles, but couldn't see anything special about it, so he returned the grass to her.

"Zhizhi, I think we can still feed Dahua this grass. Maybe it will help her gain weight!"

"Hey, Brother Qingbai, I didn't think of that idea. It really might make you gain weight!"

Let's test it on the big flower pig first. If it really helps them gain weight, I'll secretly feed some to all the pigs from now on!

"Okay, anyway, this grass looks pretty much the same as the grass we usually cut!"

Zhuang Zhimeng nodded, then, thinking of the equipment, asked about it.

"Brother Qingbai, what did Uncle Baogen say when he saw the equipment? Was he very happy?"

"Yes, Uncle Baogen was so happy his eyes were practically squinting. He said he'd reward us both with twenty work points!"

"That's good too! Giving a reward is always a good thing!"

"Yes! Zhizhi is right!"

Zhuang Zhimeng was about to head home when An Qingbai stopped her.

"Zhizhi, let's go to the East Forest to look at some wood. I plan to make the furniture for our new house myself!"

Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and looked at Qingbai.

"Hehe, Qingbai, you're making it seem like I didn't do anything at all."

An Qingbai smiled indulgently.

"You don't need to do anything, I'll do it all!"

"So what kind of wood should we use?"

"Let's go check out that grove of trees over there. They usually use those trees to make furniture!"

"Okay, I haven't really walked into the woods to the east yet!"

After Zhuang Zhimeng finished speaking, she and An Qingbai walked to the woods on the east side.

Zhuang Zhimeng glanced at it and immediately exclaimed in delight.

"Wow, Brother Qingbai, our village actually has rosewood?"

An Qingbai looked over in confusion.

"Zhizhi, is this rosewood? Isn't it flat-heart wood?"

Zhuang Zhimeng waved her hand.

"It's pretty much the same thing, just a different name! But it's a pity, they're still growing, so we can't cut them down yet!"

"Yes, you definitely can't! Let's go further in, there are some places where you can!"

An Qingbai and Zhuang Zhimeng walked a distance further in, and An Qingbai pointed to a tree and told Zhuang Zhimeng.

"Zhizhi, we can cut down this tree! This one tree is enough to make furniture!"

Zhuang Zhimeng's gaze unconsciously drifted to the tree, and she nodded.

"That's certainly enough to see. Brother Qingbai, what kind of tree is that?"

"Northeast ash!"

"Then I know, it's Manchurian Ash!"

"That's right!"

Zhuang Zhimeng asked again.

"Do we need Uncle Baogen's approval or something if we want to cut down trees? Or do we need the forest ranger's approval?"

An Qingbai nodded.

"You need to find the forest ranger, tell him which tree you want to cut down, and if he agrees, you can cut it down!"

He needs to check if the tree to be felled meets the standards for felling; if he doesn't agree, the tree cannot be felled!
