The grain harvest here has been completed, but the cotton harvest is still going on over 500 mu of land in the walled village. Chunxiao feels uneasy and decides to take Ersan and the others to the walled village to help after daybreak.
Eleven and Xiaohua stayed behind to look after the farm, while the others went along in ox carts.
They took a short rest of about two hours and then set off.
Although everyone was tired, they all seemed to be quite excited. Now they were going there with a mission. The boss said that the sooner they finished harvesting the cotton, the sooner they would feel at ease.
When Chunxiao and his companions arrived, the harvest was in full swing in the village, and there were several cotton merchants waiting on the spot to ship their goods. Everyone was surprised by their arrival.
"Boss, have you and the others in charge come out?" They saw the car and people behind them, "Boss, what's this?"
"After today's sale, all the excess cotton will be dragged to the outskirts of the city. Don't ask about the rest for now." Although this place is far from Guanshan, it always feels unsafe at this time.
The nearby cotton merchants saw so many cars coming and thought they were also here to collect cotton. Seeing how familiar they were with each other, they immediately became anxious. "Managers, we agreed that we will pay first at 130 wen, and those who come later will have to queue up."
The manager over there was also smart. He didn't explain much, "Boss, I didn't lie to you. There are plenty of people buying cotton. They'll have to pick it themselves later. Don't worry, we keep our word. If you have enough, we'll give it to you two first. We won't give it to them."
The two men were relieved, and the newcomer immediately joined the cotton picking team. In the afternoon, the cotton pickers finally left with the convoy transporting the cotton.
"How much did you buy?"
"People have been coming in one after another these days, and they've sold over 70,000 kilograms."
Chunxiao nodded, "Well done."
Chunxiao said she didn't want to mention what was happening over there, so no one else mentioned it either. They just focused on picking cotton in the field.
They also hired dozens of temporary workers from the village to help peel the cotton seeds. They went back and forth every day, and the days soon came to mid-to-late September. One day, they were harvesting cotton in the field when a villager came hurriedly with a message saying that the enemy had come from Guanshan Town and was fighting fiercely. They were asked to leave quickly and it would be best to go to the county town. It would be best if they could get out of the city.
