"Oh, Captain Sun, your brother Sun Maomin, how come he is pulling a donkey cart at such a young age? I also heard that the villagers have some complaints about you." Jiang Tang asked casually.

"Secretary Jiang, my brother pulls a donkey cart for the village. This was a unanimous decision of several villagers. You have not been to our village often and don't know much about it. There was a lot of rain two years ago, and the Zhang River behind was flooded, and the dam broke. In order to repair the dam, my brother was hit by a cart of soil and suffocated for a full four or eight minutes. He woke up later, but his arms and legs were broken. It took him a year to slowly recover. The doctor said that he would not be able to do heavy work in the future, so I arranged this job of driving a cart for him. I, Sun Maocheng, you can check it out, and I have never been partial to anyone. Also, where did you hear that the villagers had complaints about me? How come I didn't know?" Sun Maocheng looked aggrieved and explained hurriedly.

Jiang Tang rolled her eyes: "If someone says something bad about you, will they say it to your face?"

"Oh, no, I, Sun Maocheng, have worked so hard for Shaluo Village. Even if I have no credit, I have contributed a lot. Why are they complaining about me? Who is it? I must find out!" Sun Maocheng became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Captain Sun, I'm not here today to be a detective with you. We've already settled the matter of the brown sugar workshop. Do you want to hold a meeting, talk to everyone about this, and let the villagers plant sugarcane?" Jiang Tang brought the subject back.

Sun Maocheng's face looked unhappy at the moment, but he didn't refuse: "What kind of meeting is this? I can just tell Hongying and the others directly."

"Captain Sun, is this how you usually act as a captain?" Jiang Tang frowned and asked.

"What's wrong with me?" Sun Maocheng looked puzzled.

"I've noticed that you particularly like to have the final say and act arbitrarily, and you don't like to listen to other people's opinions. I think since we are a group, we should discuss everything with each other." Jiang Tang pointed out bluntly.

Sun Maocheng snorted. "My father is the Party Secretary of our village. He's not as smart as I am. Why should I discuss things with him? Few of us have been to school. Sometimes when I talk to them, they don't understand. They babble and ask a lot of questions, but they never get to the point. Since I became the captain of Shaluo Village, it took me two years to surpass Youcaoling Village. At least we don't have to rely on relief food anymore. The villagers are very grateful to me, so I don't understand where the complaints come from. Secretary Jiang, you don't feel that you are not valued in our village, so you are deliberately stirring up trouble and sowing discord?"
