Reborn, I Became a Villain Boss

An explosion at the logistics port drastically altered Xu Xiangyang's destiny.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in a special era... Not only had "she" become "...

Chapter 403: Difficulties in the Countryside

When Xu Xiangyang woke up the next morning, he felt dizzy.

I got the bug back last night and installed it again, which took quite a bit of effort.

But the result was good, and his time was not wasted.

The eavesdropping device was installed smoothly, and Mr. Kong's secret fund was discovered.

It’s in the warehouse under the black market building!

He didn't sneak in because the lock was strange and he couldn't open it at all.

An ordinary lock would not be able to stop him, but that lock is different from an ordinary lock.

Last night I saw Mr. Kong carrying the box in, and then he came out and locked it carefully.

Isn't this obviously a slush fund? Otherwise, Mr. Kong's cautious expression couldn't be fake, right?

Xu Xiangyang was thinking about things while washing up and getting ready to go to work.

At this time, someone knocked on the door outside. It was Wang Xiumin, calling his name.

"Coming." He left the space and went to open the door.

Wang Xiumin saw the tears on his face and said, "I told you to come over for dinner. You just woke up? Hurry up."

After saying that, the man turned around and left.

Xu Xiangyang looked at the time and saw that there was still enough time, so he went to change his clothes.

When he arrived at the front yard, everyone was sitting at the dinner table waiting for him.

When he saw that there was someone sitting next to Wang Zhongshan, he greeted him.

"Captain Liu is here." He sat beside her with a smile.

Captain Liu hadn't been here since his last visit. The last time he came, he'd asked if there was any way to get the team members some extra jobs.

"Xiangyang is up and comes to disturb you so early in the morning, haha." Captain Liu said with a smile, and then joined everyone for dinner.

He hadn't eaten yet when he arrived. He got up early in the morning and took the bus here. He must have been very tired and hungry.

For breakfast, Captain Liu ate eight big buns stuffed with radish and meat made by Lao Xu's family in one go.

That’s a bun as big as two bowls!

Xu Xiangyang felt full just looking at them, but when the Xu family first came to the city, they also had big appetites.

Food is generally poor these days, and meat is even rarer. If I eat three big steamed buns in the morning, I will be hungry before noon.

It’s because there is no oil or water, so no matter how much food you eat, you can’t resist hunger.

He was already used to this kind of situation, so he took a look and packed up to leave.

"Hey? Xiangyang, wait a minute." Captain Liu drank the last mouthful of porridge, wiped his mouth and said, "I came to talk to you about something!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiangyang stopped and the two of them went out to talk.

It was sunny outside and it was especially warm standing in the sun.

"What's the matter?" Xu Xiangyang looked at him puzzled.

If it is too troublesome, he will not agree to it. He already has a lot of things waiting to be dealt with, and he doesn't have time to help others with useless things.

Liu Hai said with a smile: "It's like this, you know that the brigade is poor in the whole commune, so there is nothing good to eat when we are farming."

"We have to plant the crops tomorrow. It's hard to feed everyone all winter. We don't have any poultry, and I don't have enough tickets to buy them. That's why I came to you."

"I don't ask for much. Just help me get 50 kilograms of meat. I'll pay you."

He was forced into a corner, otherwise he wouldn't have come to find Xu Xiangyang.

Farming is hard work. If you can't keep up with the pace, your food rations for the year will be reduced.

Last year's harvest was already bad, and he didn't want to go through it again.

Everyone in the team was starving, their faces pale and their bodies thin. If they didn't get some food, they would be exhausted to death while working.

When Xu Xiangyang heard about this, he felt that there was no problem, but he had to say some things first.

"Captain Liu, you have to think of a way. You can't always rely on me. I'll help you this time, but I may not be able to help you next time. You know the city's supplies are insufficient. For what you mentioned, I'll have to ask someone to help me."

He finished speaking and looked at the person opposite him.

If a person is greedy, he will not care about anything in the future.

Liu Hai nodded and said awkwardly, "I know it's difficult for you too. This is really difficult, but I have no choice. I will definitely not trouble you next time, don't worry."

Whether it is troublesome or not, we can talk about it next time. But this time, we have to get it done.

Seeing that he didn't make any more requests, Xu Xiangyang said, "Wait here for a while. I'm going to bring some stuff to the factory and I'll give you some."

After saying that, he turned around and went to the courtyard. There must be a reason for this. You can't just go somewhere else and get something empty-handed, right?

Liu Hai had a smile on his face, as if a burden had been lifted off his shoulders! He really wanted Xu Xiangyang to help him, because last year's harvest was poor, and he had barely had a full meal all winter.

Everyone in the brigade, except those who had workers at home, was starving.

Don’t even think about eating enough. It’s good enough if you can eat three-quarters full. You can only eat half full during the Chinese New Year.

Spring has finally arrived and the flowers are blooming. Wild vegetables are also available, and I can finally say that I can recover.

But if you want to farm, I'm afraid it's still impossible to save so much effort.

Xu Xiangyang was pushing a bicycle with a basket on the seat. He walked over slowly and handed the things to him.

"Qian and Chengzhong, you go find my dad and the others. I'm in a hurry to go to work." After he said that, someone came out of the room.

This is not the first time this has happened, and everyone knows it.

"Xiangyang, I won't say much to express my gratitude. If there is anything you need me for in the future, just tell me and I will go through fire and water for you!" Liu Hai started swearing.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll go first." Xu Xiangyang smiled and waved, then rode away on his bike.

Although there is no need to do this with bangs, it is better to say this than to say nothing.

Liu Hai saw that he was pregnant, tears welling up in his eyes. In such a difficult time, it was Xu Xiangyang who helped him!

Xu Guangtian came out and saw him wiping his tears, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Captain, we will definitely help if we can. Although it's difficult now, there will be better days in the future! We must hold on and look forward!"

He knew these days that life was hard in the countryside. Although life in the city was also difficult, people with money could buy things on the black market.

So the situation is better, but it's so difficult in the countryside.

Liu Hai wiped her tears, nodded and said, "I agree with you! We will definitely get better and better."

If the situation wasn't good, he wouldn't have come out to buy meat!

He took out the money. Pork on the black market was now one yuan and forty cents. He counted out the money with a painful look and handed it over, but Xu Guangtian refused to take it.

"What's wrong, brother?" He was stunned for a moment, then said, "Did the price of meat go up again? Oh, I should have thought of it earlier."

Liu Hai knew that the prices of things on the black market were rising rapidly, but he didn't expect them to increase so quickly.

He was just about to ask how much the price had increased when he saw Xu Guangtian smile.

"Captain, Xiangyang told us to just go with the butcher's price. 70 cents, no meat coupons needed."

Don’t you want the 70 cents meat ticket?

Liu Hai burst into tears again. How could he have such a good fellow villager?
