When Lu Wensheng and Lu Hao arrived at the brigade headquarters, Village Chief Li and the brigade leader were already waiting on the tractor. They seemed to be chatting about something, and when they saw Lu Wensheng coming, they all turned to look at her:
"Xiaolu, do you think we should bring some local specialties from the village?"
Lu Wensheng looked confused:???
"So what are the specialties of our village?" How come she doesn't know?
Li Xiangyang looked at her with disdain: "Wild ginseng..."
Look at you, you have never seen the world!
Lu Wensheng:!!!
Ma Yingjie's eyes lit up and he came forward and asked, "Uncle, do we still grow ginseng in our village?"
Li Xiangyang explained as a matter of course: "That's not the case. Old Man Ge dug it up in the mountains two years ago. If we were to take it, I would steal it... No, I would take it..."
Old Man Ge: I am lucky to have you!
I limped up the mountain, and you have the nerve to say that I dug the ginseng with great difficulty...
Lu Wensheng waved his hands after hearing this: "Forget it, let's just steal two watermelons..."
Ma Yingjie raised his hand: "I know the way, I'll go steal it!"
Li Fugui was speechless: A soldier sneaks one, a general sneaks the whole nest...
If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. What good things can that bandit Li Xiangyang bring out?
The three of them hit it off and temporarily formed a melon-stealing team, led by Li Xiangyang, Lu Wensheng driving, and Lu Hao taking action.
Just as the captain was feeling so embarrassed that he wanted to stick his head in his crotch, several people went towards Old Man Ge's melon field.
Hehe, grab it now before Lao Ge goes out~
————
Half an hour later,
Li Xiangyang and Li Fugui each held a big watermelon in their arms.
Well... Ma Yingjie hugged two!
Lu Wensheng drove the tractor at full speed, but there was nothing he could do because Old Man Ge was already coming over with a backpack on his back.
Lao Ge: Why are they running?
After nearly three hours of bumpy ride on the road, they finally reached the county town. Lu Wensheng parked the tractor directly in front of the match factory.
From a distance, I saw Liu Lanhua coming out of the guard room.
"Sister Lanhua, why are you out in such hot weather..."
Lu Wensheng jumped off the tractor and ran towards Liu Lanhua. A white-haired old man came out with her.
"Good morning, uncle~"
"Hello, hello."
Wang Dongsheng smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. The girl is pretty, sweet-spoken, and capable. She is really great!
He was the security guard at the match factory, and he got the position thanks to his son's relationship. When he heard Accountant Liu say that her sister was coming to get matchboxes to make at home today, he waited for her at the door.
What he didn't expect was that Accountant Xiao Liu's sister was actually a tractor driver. She was a female tractor driver, and there was probably only one such in their county!
Liu Lanhua put her arm around Lu Wensheng and said with a smile, "I'm waiting for you, come into the house!"
At this time, Village Chief Li and the team leader also came over, each holding a watermelon in his arms. Village Chief Li was the first to greet them: "Accountant Liu, we meet again."
Liu Lanhua smiled and responded, "Village Chief Li."
It was still Lu Hao next to him who introduced: "Sister Liu, this is the captain of our village, Captain Li Fugui."
Then he turned to the team leader and said, "Captain, this is Accountant Liu from the match factory."
Li Fugui immediately stuffed the watermelon into Lu Hao's arms, wiped his hands on his clothes and said, "Hello, Accountant Liu."
Accountant Liu extended his hand, shook it, and said with a smile, "Hello, let's go in quickly, Director Wang is waiting."
Everyone nodded and followed Liu Lanhua into the factory.
No one noticed that Wu Gong was holding a few water bottles and looking around behind the tractor. He saw Sister Lu, so he waited for her to come out!
Lu Wensheng and others followed Liu Lanhua into an office. There sat a man in his thirties or forties, who looked about the same age as Li Fugui. When he saw Liu Lanhua and her men coming in, he quickly stood up from his seat and greeted them:
"Xiao Liu is here?"
Liu Lanhua stepped forward and introduced everyone: "This is Wang Weiguo, the director of our factory."
"Director Wang, these are the village chiefs and captains of the peace brigade I told you about."
He pointed at Lu Hao and Lu Wensheng and said, "These two are tractor drivers."
Lu Wensheng and others greeted Director Wang, put the watermelons in their hands on the ground, and then started to exchange greetings.
After a few words, they got down to business. Lu Wensheng sighed in his heart: They are all smart people~
The discussions went quite smoothly, and it didn't take long to finalize the details of the cooperation and the settlement of remuneration.
After both parties agreed, Director Wang called his men and ordered:
"Xiao Song, take them around the workshop first, then find someone to teach them how to paste matchboxes. If there's no problem, take them to the warehouse to pick up the goods."
Xiao Song nodded: "Okay, Director, I'll go right away." Then he asked everyone to leave the office.
On the way to the workshop, Lu Wensheng and Lu Hao looked at each other and said to the village chief:
"Uncle, let's go out for a while."
Li Xiangyang waved his hand to signal them to leave quickly and not to delay anything.
Li Fugui wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words back as they came to his lips.
Forget it, let them be.
Lu Wensheng and the other two were extremely happy after receiving the amnesty, and said, "Uncle, we will be back in about an hour, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Xiao Song replied, "It should be no problem. It took us about the same amount of time to complete the handover."
"Okay!"
When Lu Wensheng and Lu Hao arrived outside the factory, they saw Wu Gong hiding in the corner.
"Wu Gong, why are you here so early?" Lu Wensheng asked curiously.
Wu Gong immediately took out the fried cake from his arms and handed it to Lu Wensheng happily:
"Sister Lu, I don't have anything else to do, so I've been waiting for you here since early morning. This is for you. My grandfather fried it."
Lu Wensheng felt warm in his heart, took the fried cake, and touched Wu Gong's head, "Thank you, Xiao Gong."
Wu Gong lowered his head and whispered, "You're welcome."
Ma Yingjie asked in confusion: "Sister Lu, who is this child?"
Lu Wensheng thought about it and realized there was no need to hide it, since they were all family, so he said:
"My brother, the crossbow I gave you was made by his grandfather."
Ma Yingjie was shocked: "Really!" He had admired craftsmen since he was a child.
Of course, the craftsmen here are not like Meng Qingtang. The Wu family is a real craftsman.
Wu Gong defended himself in a low voice: "I made that crossbow..." His grandfather couldn't make such a crude crossbow~
Lu Hao was even more impressed. He walked up to Wu Gong, put his arms around his neck and started to get close to him: "Kid, take me to your home!" He wanted to see the world.
Wu Gong broke away from the fair-skinned man in front of him with a look of disdain: What's the point of a man being so fair?
He still likes his sister Lu's style, it's exciting to watch~
"Sister Lu..."
Lu Wensheng pulled him over and pointed at Lu Hao and said, "This is Lu Hao. You have to call me brother, do you know?"
Wu Gong nodded. He listened to Sister Lu: "Brother Lu Hao."
Ma Yingjie hurriedly took out candy from his pocket: "A meeting gift."
He only has fruit candy...
But it doesn't matter, just give me more~
