Back in the office, Chen Changyuan took out the envelope given by An Caicai, hesitated for a moment and still didn't open it.
There are so many things going on in the base now, so let’s get the important things done first.
He will go back and take a closer look.
He took out the blueprints and carefully planned the new planting area.
The work at the medicinal materials base has become more and more stable in the past two days, and Chen Changyuan is relieved.
Half an hour later, Chen Changyuan finished drawing the picture and remembered that he had not read the letter from An Caicai that morning.
Chen Changyuan took it out of his pocket and found that there was a faint fragrance on the letter.
Chen Changyuan gently opened the envelope, and a faint scent of jasmine wafted out.
A few lines of words were neatly written on the letter paper: "Brother Changyuan: I have learned a lot at the base these days, thank you. Uncle Zhang said he would like to invite you to his Chinese medicine clinic. I wonder when you are free? Caicai"
Chen Changyuan looked at the short letter and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
An Caicai's handwriting is neat and beautiful, just like she is neat and tidy.
"long!"
Zhang Mazi suddenly pushed the door open, interrupting Chen Changyuan's thoughts.
"What's the rush?"
Chen Changyuan put the letter away and looked up and asked.
"Something happened!"
Zhang Mazi gasped, "That guy Zhou Dazhu from your village is telling everyone in the village that you seduced girls from the city and that you're going to sell the base!"
Chen Changyuan's face darkened.
Zhou Dazhu, this sinister villain, is indeed doing bad things behind the scenes again.
"What else did he say?"
"Tell me... tell me you want to use that city girl's connections to sell the base to the city people, and then everyone in the village will be unemployed!"
Zhang Mazi was so angry that he stamped his feet. "This son of a bitch, what nonsense!"
Chen Changyuan sneered.
Zhou Dazhu wanted to sow discord and make the villagers hostile towards him.
"Let's go and take a look."
Chen Changyuan stood up and walked out.
Many villagers have gathered at the entrance of the base, and discussions are heard one after another.
"I heard that Boss Chen wants to sell the base?"
"No way, this base is the hope of our village."
"Zhou Dazhu said that Boss Chen hooked up with a girl from the city and was planning to sell the base."
Chen Changyuan stood outside the crowd, listening to the discussions, his expression becoming increasingly ugly.
Zhou Dazhu, this sinister villain, was indeed doing bad things behind the scenes.
"Brother Changyuan!"
An Caicai squeezed out of the crowd, a worried look on her face, "They are all talking about you..."
Chen Changyuan patted her shoulder and strode towards the center of the crowd.
"Fellow villagers!"
His voice was loud and powerful. "I, Chen Changyuan, solemnly declare here that I founded this base. I have never thought of selling it, and I will never abandon you!"
The crowd quieted down, but there were still whispers.
"What's with the city girl?"
Someone asked.
Just as Chen Changyuan was about to explain, Old Yuantou suddenly stood up and said, "You people are so quick to believe everything you hear! Don't you know who Changyuan is?"
"that is!"
"Dear fellow villagers,"
He continued, "Not only will I not sell the base, I'm also going to expand it. Both the medicinal material base and the breeding farm need to be expanded, and more manpower will be needed. Everyone, rest assured, I, Chen Changyuan, will definitely lead everyone to prosperity together!"
These words gradually put the villagers at ease.
Zhou Dazhu stood at the edge of the crowd, his face ashen.
"Long term is right!"
The old man echoed loudly, "Our village finally has this base, we can't let anyone mess it up!"
"Okay, everyone, go away."
Chen Changyuan waved his hand and said, "Those who need to work should work, and those who need to farm should farm."
The crowd gradually dispersed, but Zhou Dazhu stood there without moving.
"Chen Changyuan,"
He said sinisterly, "Don't be too proud too soon."
Chen Changyuan sneered: "Zhou Dazhu, you'd better control your mouth. Otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?"
Zhou Dazhu puffed out his chest and asked, "You still want to hit me?"
"Hit you?"
Chen Changyuan shook his head, "Are you worthy?"
After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Zhou Dazhui shaking with anger.
Chen Changyuan returned to the office, and Zhang Mazi rushed in right after him: "Oh, Changyuan, Dazhu is definitely not done with this week!"
"Hmph~" Chen Changyuan curled his lips, "I don't have time to deal with him right now. The base's business is more serious."
He quickly unfolded the blueprint and tapped on the paper. "Look, here's a medicinal material processing factory specializing in Chinese herbal medicine slices."
“Wow!”
Zhang Mazi's eyes lit up. "Now we can directly produce the finished product and make a fortune!"
"Hey, it's not over yet!"
Chen Changyuan went on to say, "Young and old men in the village can all work in the factory, and the older ones can also find jobs."
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.
Chen Changyuan stood up and looked out through the window - Zhou Dazhui was leading a few unfamiliar faces wandering around the gate of the base, pointing and gesturing.
"Huh? Could those people be the county's herbal medicine dealers?"
Zhang Mazi came forward.
"Yes, the leader's surname is Li. He opened a medicine shop in the county town and his business is booming."
"Oh,"
Chen Changyuan snorted coldly, "You want to strangle me?"
"How about I chase them away?"
Zhang Mazi clenched his fists, ready to make a move.
"Don't be impulsive!"
Chen Changyuan stopped him and said, "Just keep an eye on them and see what these people are up to."
"But……"
"What are you afraid of?"
Chen Changyuan interrupted him, "Just take whatever action you throw at me!"
Back at the table, Chen Changyuan concentrated on studying the drawings.
