"I'll let the threshing floor know when the time comes, and we'll add an extra section of firewood to the load, then we can transport the firewood down there."

"You should ask your dad to think of a way to find a vehicle or something, so that those rough-hewn things can be transported home, cleaned up, and used as firewood."

Qianchuan Forest Farm is located deep in the forest, a place that's practically a firewood dump, and people from those Lengdizi Forest Farms look down on it.

But if we get it to the town, it can really solve a lot of problems.

With a simple plank, you can easily stretch out a ten- or eight-zhang (approximately 33 meters) of firewood, as if it were child's play.

There's still some wood inside; it's good for building barns, making canes, and so on.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qinglan's eyes lit up immediately. "Really? Oh, that's wonderful!"

Last time I went back home, my mom was worried, saying that firewood was hard to come by and if it didn't work, she'd have to go to Donggang to buy some.

Living in town is nothing compared to living in a forest farm; getting firewood is a real hassle.

"Xiping, thank you so much, you've thought of everything." Zhou Qinglan was overjoyed and smiled happily.

"What are you thanking me for? If I were to marry you, wouldn't I have to flatter my father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

"I may not have any other skills, but surely I can easily prepare a cartload of firewood for my father-in-law?"

Sheng Xiping loved seeing Zhou Qinglan smile. As long as she was happy, he would find a way to get her anything, let alone some firewood.

"That's settled then. Call home and let Uncle Zhou know what to do."

I'll talk to the team leader and the dispatch office tomorrow. It's not a big deal; we can solve it by paying a few dollars for transportation.

"It just so happens that I and the Haining Construction team are dismantling timber on the mountain. Everyone, please lend a hand and help us clear out as much as possible."

Sheng Xiping raised his hand, ruffled Zhou Qinglan's hair, and smiled.

"Okay, okay, I'll go to the stadium to borrow a phone tomorrow."

My parents haven't even met you yet, and you're already helping the family so much; they'll be very happy.

Zhou Qinglan was overjoyed, so under the cover of night, she tiptoed and kissed Sheng Xiping on the cheek, then turned and ran away.
