Chapter 77: Just give me enough food for a month and I won’t mind
"Really? Are you really just trying to scare him?" the farm manager asked calmly.
He looked at the fair and handsome Zhan Yunzhou, with his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes on his handsome face.
Director Gu was in a complicated mood. The longer his daughter pursued him, the more sloppy he became, and he didn't care about his appearance all day long.
His daughter had just threatened to give up, and he cleaned himself up. Did he have to be so obvious?
Is Gu Yunchu's daughter so bad?
"He stole my new clothes while I was working. I was just trying to scare him. Is that okay?" Zhan Yunzhou raised his eyebrows and looked at the director.
“………”
Director Gu thought that when he saw Zhan Yunzhou again, he would see hatred and resentment in his eyes, but unfortunately, there was only endless indifference.
Today he witnessed how powerful the young veterinarian at the pig farm was. He didn't want to easily accuse anyone of being right or wrong, so he remained silent.
"Your new clothes? Where do you get the money to buy new clothes?" asked the deputy farm manager in surprise.
He remembered clearly that these people might have had some personal cash on them when they first entered the farm.
After they had been there for a few years, even their trousers were patched up, but the young man in front of them was indeed not simple. He even had spare money to buy clothes?
"It was...given to me by a relative, and my name is on the clothes." Zhan Yunzhou was reluctant to say more.
Ye Siran sewed his name on him. At that time, she smiled and said that the material of the clothes she bought for him was very good and she was afraid that others would steal them.
Even his gloves have his name on the inside, and the girl he likes is just smart.
"Even if the clothes are yours, you can't chop people with an axe." The deputy director said seriously.
"I said, he was the one who used the axe to attack us first, and I just grabbed it to defend myself." Zhan Yunzhou's voice was cold, like ice hitting stone.
Farm manager Gu Yunchu looked at Zhan Yunzhou quietly. He knew his abilities and was not surprised at all that Zhan Yunzhou could earn money to buy new clothes.
Back then, he and his grandfather were beaten and sent here. He thought the old man would die within half a month.
But the young man would pick herbs himself every day and give them to the grandfather and grandson for internal and external application.
Half a month later, the old man miraculously recovered. Not only did they not die, but they lived better than others.
The young man often sneaked up the mountain to hunt, and every time he caught prey he would give some to their family.
Gu Yunchu was moved by his tenacity and turned a blind eye to him, but this young man was indeed capable.
There are 80 to 100 days of windy and sandy weather here every year. His superiors asked him to find a way to plant trees. They have been planting trees for several years, but the survival rate is very low.
In order to make life better for the grandfather and grandson, Zhan Yunzhou actually offered to help him solve the problem.
He understands projects such as windbreak and sand fixation forests, soil and water conservation forests, pasture protection forests, firewood and charcoal forests, and economic forests.
The plan he proposed has completed the afforestation and conservation of more than 30,000 acres, consolidating and developing the northwest green ecological barrier.
He would come home every day and praise Zhan Yunzhou, which caused his eighteen-year-old daughter to develop a great interest in him.
The daughter went to see him secretly alone and fell in love with him at first sight. After returning home, she insisted on marrying him.
But his eldest son wanted to take credit for Zhan Yunzhou's achievements, so the brother and sister forced him to leave the forest farm, and the other forced him to marry her.
In his heart, he also felt that a sent-down youth was not worthy of honor, so he let his children do whatever they wanted.
Zhan Yunzhou was indeed a tough nut to crack and would never give in. Gu Mian and her elder brother transferred him to shovel pig manure, and Zhan Yunzhou did the job obediently.
In order to avoid his daughter's harassment, he never cared about his appearance and let his beard grow untidy.
Even the leaders above didn’t believe that those tree planting plans came from his hand!
If he had not been selfish at that time and had wanted to promote Zhan Yunzhou, he would have already created a combination of trees, shrubs and grasses under the yellow sand.
By now, this place should have been a farm with lush grass and water. Unfortunately, a single thought led to a huge miss!
In the past two years, his eldest son was afraid that Zhan Yunzhou would compete with him for credit, so he framed him many times. He was able to escape every time, which shows that he is very capable.
The forest manager was frightened by Zhan Yunzhou's axe. Now that he came to his senses, he felt that everything was Zhan Yunzhou's fault.
Seeing that the director remained silent, he said with tears streaming down his face: "Director, deputy director, you must help me. A stinky old man wants to kill me."
"I really want to hack you to death. How can you still stand here and talk?" Zhan Yunzhou's eyes were like a knife slashing at the forest manager.
If no one had seen him chopping someone with an axe, he would certainly not admit that he had chopped him.
The forest ranger stared at Zhan Yunzhou fiercely and said, "You want to kill me? You'll be punished by the fence."
"Comrade, calm down. What's your name?" Director Gu asked when he saw that the other party was very emotional.
"To answer the director's question, my last name is Wu, and everyone calls me Wu Laosan." Wu Laosan said while wiping his tears.
"Comrade Wu, you need to think it over and tell me honestly. Don't do whatever you want just because of the other person's identity."
Wu Laosan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He didn't expect the director to be so helpful. "Director! What are you doing?"
"Everyone is equal before the law, and no one will be convicted just because of their different identities."
The deputy director's eyes widened as he asked, "Director, what do you mean by this?"
"What's wrong with me? Did I say something wrong?" The director asked with a dignified look on his face.
"Of course you are right, Wu Laosan, tell me the truth, was it you who stole his clothes first and then got angry and chopped him with an axe?" the deputy director said quickly.
Originally he wanted to side with Mr. Wu, but he did not dare to disobey the director's wishes, so he could only hint to Mr. Wu to make the matter smaller.
As the forest manager, Wu Laosan knew that this matter could not be resolved peacefully and he would definitely have to pay the price today.
Seeing the director's face getting darker and darker, he immediately admitted, "Director, it's all my fault. Please give me a chance."
"You stole other people's clothes, which is a crime of theft. What chance do you want me to give you?" asked the manager.
Wu Laosan knew that the director would not side with him, so he could only beg Zhan Yunzhou: "Comrade Zhan, I've already given you the clothes, and you also chopped me with an axe, how about we just forget about it?"
"I can ignore these things, but you have injured him, so you decide what to do?" Zhan Yunzhou said with a grim face.
The forest manager didn't expect that Zhan Yunzhou would dare to be so tough in front of the director.
He looked at the middle-aged lumberjack sinisterly, "Tell me how I can compensate you?"
The middle-aged woodcutter was flattered and said, "As long as you can provide me with enough food for a month, I won't mind."
Hearing this, Wu Laosan's face was full of joy. He didn't expect things to go so smoothly. "Director, deputy director, I have no objection to providing him with food for a month."
"Since you have no objection, then why are you dawdling? Get to work." The deputy director said angrily.
"I'll get out of here right now!" Wu Laosan said quickly, then ran away.
