Lu Fangfang's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly took it and looked at it.
Sure enough, there was an article about the farm in the newspaper, with two photos printed on it. One was a photo of her and Sister Shufen collecting eggs, and the other was a photo of her and Sister Lanying.
After glancing at the author of the article, it was unsurprisingly Liu Wenhui.
"Sister-in-law Lanying, come quick, we're in the newspaper."
"ah?"
Zhao Lanying, forgetting all about collecting the eggs, ran over happily.
She took the newspaper, glanced at it, and immediately smiled.
Lu Fangfang was also quite happy. This was the military region's newspaper, which she had been featured in before. She didn't expect it to be featured again in just a few months.
She turned to look at Gao Dajiang and noticed that the regimental commander's expression had become even more unpleasant.
"Commander, Comrade Wenhui is coming to interview us. I've already informed her."
Seeing this, Director Zhao couldn't help but laugh. "Xiao Lu, don't be afraid. It's a good thing to be in the military region's newspaper. Even our regiment has made an appearance in the military region. The leaders of the military region even praised us."
"Pah, Chief, that's... that's trying to use nice words to trick us out of our quail eggs."
Gao Dajiang slapped his thigh, filled with regret.
Across from her, Lu Fangfang was even more puzzled, and she couldn't help but look at Director Zhao again.
"Hey, the military region is in trouble right now. They want us to hand over 800 catties of quail eggs as supplies to support the border. But the military region won't take them for nothing. They will pay your farm according to the market price."
Hearing this, Gao Dajiang became even angrier.
Money is useless; it would be better to convert it into grain and send some feed over.
There's a shortage of supplies right now; even if you have money, you can't buy anything.
Lu Fangfang, standing nearby, felt relieved.
I did some quick calculations and realized that, based on the current output of the farm, it would take at least twenty days to collect eight hundred catties of quail eggs.
It's cold now, and the quails aren't laying eggs as much. If there's any delay, the farm's production for a month will be gone. No wonder the team leader is angry.
"Commander, shall we pay?"
"Sigh, after all, it's to support the frontier. Besides, you can't fight city hall. Just hand it over."
Gao Dajiang sighed again.
He had no objection to supporting the border regions, but the military region's handling of the matter was truly unethical.
Looking at the egg catcher full of quail eggs, he felt more and more distressed. The soldiers in the regiment would not have quail eggs to eat for a month.
Unable to bear watching any longer, he turned around and strode away.
"Xiao Lu, the military region needs it urgently. It needs to be sent in two batches. The first batch is 400 jin, and they need it in ten days. You should be able to gather what you have stored at the farm."
Director Zhao stayed behind alone and explained the military region's requirements.
Lu Fangfang took out her notebook and made a note of it.
The military region needs it urgently, so their farms need to feed them more to increase production.
To be honest, she was quite happy. When Liu Wenhui came, she said she would go to the border region of Ali with the supply convoy.
I feel quite honored to be able to contribute now that I'm able to do my part.
After a while, seeing that Director Zhao was about to leave, she smiled and said, "Director Zhao, please go back and tell the regimental commander that this batch of male quails from our farm is about to be sold. Even if we run out of quail eggs, we still have quails to eat. Tell him not to worry."
Director Zhao couldn't help but laugh.
He nodded, gave a few more instructions, and then strode away.
