Chapter 296 In a Trench
Chapter 296 In a Trench
After the call was connected, Han Changping was deeply moved when he heard the words of the old village chief of Jingwa Village.
"Old village chief, how about this? Please collect the village's grain at your house for me first. Please let me know how many kilograms there are at the end, and I will find a time to drive over and pick it up."
"Okay, okay, Boss Han, don't worry, I will never give you bad food."
After hanging up the phone, Han Changping felt much more relieved. After all, there are still people who can negotiate with others in this world.
As soon as Han Changping walked into the yard, Zhao Fengjuan, who was sitting on the kang in the room, saw him.
"Mom, Han Changping is here. He must have something to say to me. Please go out for a walk."
Wang Lianzhi saw this and suddenly changed her attitude towards Han Changping, although she didn't know what was wrong with her daughter recently.
But to be honest, she still hoped not to have any conflicts with her brother's brother-in-law.
After all, this little fool is really amazing and has done a lot of good things for the villagers, especially playing a decisive role in the changes of his own children.
"Okay, Mom got it."
As she spoke, Wang Lianzhi picked up the unfinished cotton trouser leg in her hand and walked out. When she opened the door, Han Changping also walked to the door.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
"Oh, Fengjuan saw you coming and said you two had something to talk about, so she asked me to go out for a walk. Xiao Si, please go in quickly, go in."
Han Changping nodded, said nothing more, and walked in.
"Uncle, are you here?"
Zhao Fengjuan had already poured a bowl of hot water for Han Changping and placed it on the edge of the kang. She reached out and held the child who had woken up on the kang in her arms.
"Uncle, you have something to ask me?"
"Fengjuan, I won't beat around the bush with you."
Han Changping sat down and went straight to the point.
"Hou Ping, do you know about the grain collection?"
"Oh, the child has been feeling a little unwell these past few days, so I let him go. What's wrong?"
"If Hou Ping had been doing business properly, I wouldn't have bothered with him. But who knew he would secretly collude with the village chief, going door to door and forcing the villagers to sell all their grain to him? This is a bit too much."
"Uncle, you want to ask me if I know about this matter?"
Han Changping knew that the Zhao Fengjuan in front of him was no longer the same Zhao Fengjuan as before. Han Changping nodded at her interpretation.
"What I mean is, Fengjuan, if I take some measures against Hou Ping, it won't affect your plan, right?"
This is really a smart person who immediately understood each other when he spoke. Zhao Fengjuan looked at Han Changping for a while and suddenly laughed.
"Uncle, I've always said you're a good person. I'm very grateful that you told me before you dealt with that bastard. But I really don't know if my father-in-law was involved in this matter."
"You have no idea whether Hou Baiwan is involved or not. Wouldn't it be better if you could wait until Hou Ping is kicked out and then take over the grain collection business?"
Although Hou Ping had previously agreed with Zhao Fengjuan that his brother would be responsible for collecting the grain, Hou Ping was not a fool and he still did not let Zhao Fengjuan take charge of the grain sales.
To put it bluntly, he still didn't trust Zhao Fengjuan and her two brothers, and kept the debt tightly in his hands.
So this is why Zhao Fengjuan deliberately used the child's illness as an excuse and did not go to help. If Han Changping can really make Hou Ping fail miserably this time, then if her father-in-law wants to do this business, he will have to use her, Zhao Fengjuan.
"Well, what are you going to do, little uncle? You're not going to ruin the Hou family's business all at once, are you? That wouldn't do me, Zhao Fengjuan, any good."
"Fengjuan, I came to see you because I thought you were my eldest sister's child. I thought about what you said to me last time, although I don't quite agree with you using abnormal means to obtain the Hou family's property.
But, you are right about one thing, the Hou family is definitely not your long-term home, and it is impossible for you to truly integrate into the Hou family.
So as a woman, if you want to earn enough to provide for yourself and your children's future, I support you in that regard."
Listening to Han Changping's words, Zhao Fengjuan's tears welled up in her eyes. She never thought that the person who understood her best in this world would be Han Changping.
"Uncle, I'll be honest with you. In my dream, I saw my miserable future. The Hou family treated me like a dog and kicked me out in the end.
Even my own son despises me as a mother who is incompetent. Therefore, I cannot let the things in my dream happen. Even if I am torn to pieces, I must get rid of the Hou family.
But, I can't leave empty-handed like this. I have sacrificed so much for the Hou family, I really can't bear to leave."
"Well, Fengjuan, I'll help you kick Hou Ping out this time. If you take over the Hou family's grain collection and sales, they can't let you participate in the grain sales channel. You can sell the grain to me. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer any loss."
"Uncle, I understand that you really want to help me. The Hou family is using me as a tool, so they definitely won't share all their secrets with me.
But don't worry, as long as I take over the grain collection, I will have my own way to get the money from the Hou family."
"Well, then be careful. Also, Zhao Shan cannot be reused, but your eldest and second brothers are still okay."
"Okay, I got it, uncle. I'll have Zhao Jin notify you if there's any movement."
After a glance, the two of them were already standing in the same trench. Han Changping stood up, looked at the child, took out two bottles of calcium tablets from his pocket and handed them to Zhao Fengjuan.
"I know the child has everything he needs. This is a calcium tablet for you."
"Uncle, thank you, thank you."
Zhao Fengjuan sent Han Changping to the door and watched his back as he walked away. A smile slowly spread across her face.
At this moment, she finally felt that she was no longer so tired.
In the past, she was always afraid of being kicked out by the Hou family, afraid of being kicked out like a dog, and returning to this life of poverty again.
But looking at Han Changping, she seemed to have seen her way out, and she must let Han Changping see her abilities.
If one day she was kicked out by the Hou family, at least she could still find a place to use her talents in Han Changping's business empire.
On the way home, Han Changping called out the little hamster.
"Little thing, help me do something tonight."
"Master, just give your orders."
Han Changping said a few words to the little guy, who became so excited that he even did a 360-degree turn again.
After a day of harvesting grain, Lang Xiujuan and Mei Yingxue were checking the bills under the light. Han Changping stood up and said,
"I'm going to visit my third sister and will be back soon."
Lang Xiujuan and Mei Yingxue saw that the sky was dark. Although there was no snow that night, the wet areas on the road had indeed become much smoother due to the freezing weather.
"Changping, please drive slowly at night. If you're not in a hurry, it would be best to go during the day."
"My third sister is just as busy as the rest of us during the day. Let's talk at night. I'm leaving now."
