Chapter 122 Labor Achievements
But isn't this a bit too exaggerated?
It ranges directly from energetic young men in their forties to elderly people in their seventies and eighties.
I wonder what he has gone through in the past ten years.
Well, don't be fooled by how well-organized the farm looks now; when they first came here, it was a complete wasteland.
Shang Ziming had just been in close contact with him and that's when he noticed the difference. His senses were sharp, and he could smell a very faint medicinal scent on him. Also, his accent had a hint of Beijing dialect. Looking at his face, although he had white hair and beard, he was still very energetic and far from being in his seventies or eighties.
He had his doubts, but dared to try again, and to his surprise, he succeeded.
"It's good that we found him. Shall we go find him now?" Cheng Jiulang was a little impatient.
Shang Ziming shook his head. "I'll find a chance to go tomorrow. Alright, you guys should get some rest."
After saying that, Shang Ziming left without even getting a cigarette.
Fang Minghao and Cheng Jiulang exchanged a glance.
Cheng Jiulang patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "There are plenty of fish in the sea. We're still young, no rush."
Fang Minghao pushed him away, somewhat dejected, and said, "Screw you, it's rare for me to be moved."
"Hey, who are you trying to fool?" Cheng Jiulang said disdainfully. "Xiao Tao from the infirmary, Xiao Liu from the communications department, and Section Chief Wu's sister... You're already falling for them? Are you going to change your mind every now and then? Hey, Hao, Brother Hao, I was wrong..."
"You talk too much..." Fang Minghao grabbed Cheng Jiulang by the neck, and the two started wrestling.
After an unknown amount of time, both of them were exhausted and lay on the ground, panting heavily.
"Are you feeling better now?" Cheng Jiulang asked.
"Awesome!" Fang Minghao laughed.
Su Xiao returned to her small room, feeling utterly deflated, and collapsed onto the bed.
At four o'clock the next day, it was still dark.
Holding a flashlight, Su Xiao walked out of the educated youth compound and headed towards the breeding farm.
She plans to finish the work she didn't complete yesterday first thing this morning.
There were no lights in the warehouse, but luckily she had oil lamps, candles, and a flashlight in her space, which made the small space bright and spacious.
Su Xiao was full of energy and threw herself into her work.
Suddenly, she heard the creaking of the wooden door. "Who's there?"
Su Xiao pulled out a machete from behind her back—actually from her spatial storage—and gripped it tightly in her hand. Her eyes widened as she stared at the wooden door. Through the crack in the door, she saw a dark figure and shouted, "Who's there?"
"It's me." There was indeed someone outside the door, and the man pushed open the wooden door.
Su Xiao stood up and saw a tall, strong figure bending down as he walked in; it was Tian Sheng.
"What are you doing?" Although they knew each other, she didn't understand him, and Su Xiao remained wary.
"I... I see a light here, a light, come and see. I... I'll help you." The man seemed a little nervous.
They are now frozen in place, completely still.
"No need, I can manage on my own." Su Xiao refused directly; she wouldn't dare to be alone with a man and a woman.
"Okay." Tian Sheng seemed to realize that it was inappropriate, so he didn't press the matter. He responded and turned to leave. When he reached the door, he added, "I'm cleaning the chicken coop. If you need anything, you can call me loudly."
Su Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and she said, "Thank you."
Tian Sheng nodded and left.
Su Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, put away the machete, and continued working.
The room was bathed in warm light, while the sun was just rising outside.
Finally, everything was finished. Su Xiao looked at the results of her labor, stretched with a smile, and looked up to see that it was already past six o'clock.
