Qiao Wanyue dispelled his concerns, "Xiuxiu came today and told me that we should accept as much as we want. Minister Xu has already made arrangements with other provinces, and they will take as much as we have."
"Didn't this matter implicate Minister Xu?"
Qiao Wanyue shook her head, "Minister Xu is fine. Uncle Li brought us back today and relayed Minister Xu's message. We will accept the goods as long as the quality is guaranteed, and we will not lack sales channels."
The captain felt relieved.
"Then I will notify the other brigades overnight."
"Captain, it would be best to send a quality inspector over there; quality is the most important thing."
The captain slapped his forehead. "Good."
The captain rushed out.
He couldn't wait to see those captains resort to desperate measures.
Qiao Wanyue twitched the corner of her mouth.
How come she never noticed before that the captain was quite vengeful?
The harvesting of dried vegetables continued, but due to an unexpected incident, another 500 jin (250 kg) of dried vegetables from other brigades in the commune had to be added. The other brigades were overjoyed when they heard about this and notified the villagers overnight to pack up their dried vegetables.
In one day, they prepared everything, tied it to the oxcart, and delivered it to Xiahe Village.
The thousand jin of dried vegetables from Xiahe Village were also collected. Because of what happened, Qiao Wanyue and Secretary Guo planned to go to the state-owned factory a day early. The group collected all the dried vegetables and arrived at the gate of the state-owned factory.
Minister Xu had been waiting for this for a long time.
Minister Xu now has many more people under him, and everyone has a clear division of labor, from quality inspection to accounting. Before long, Secretary Guo received a thick stack of unpaid bills.
Back at the team, the team leader immediately used a loudspeaker to notify the villagers to go to the village office to collect their money.
When the money was distributed to the villagers, they were so moved that they almost burst into tears.
I've long forgotten about what happened yesterday.
Now they wish they could worship Qiao Wanyue and Secretary Guo.
Only the Yang family was saddened.
After learning that his son had broken his leg, Zhong Qingqing's brother vented all his anger on Zhong Qingqing, beating her black and blue, smashing up the Yang family's house, and even crippling Yang Huaiyuan's arm.
After being sent to the clinic, Zhong Mengnan miscarried, and it was a fully formed male fetus. Her mother-in-law wanted to kill Zhong Qingqing. Ignoring the doctor's advice, she dragged the miscarried Zhong Mengnan home and attacked the Yang family. If it weren't for Zhong Qingqing's instigation, they wouldn't have let Zhong Mengnan stand up for her younger brother.
The Yang family was filled with wailing and howling.
This contrasted sharply with the villagers' joyful atmosphere.
Qiao Wanyue discussed with the brigade leader that now that the dried vegetable production process is on track, their village could establish a small distribution channel, as it is inconvenient to use other brigade vehicles to sell dried vegetables each time.
He wondered if he could rent a tractor from the commune so he could help deliver goods a few times when it wasn't busy with farming.
The brigade leader's eyes lit up, and he rode his bicycle to the commune.
They returned home beaming with joy.
The commune agreed.
The harvesting of vegetables is still ongoing.
Brother Lu also bought a plot of land and found someone to build a thatched house at the east end of the village. The thatched house was simpler than an ordinary house, and because he hired people, it was built in just one day.
"I'm not moving."
When Yang Lin heard that Lu Yunqi was going to kick him out, he immediately slapped Lu Yunqi across the face.
Lu Yunqi looked at his father and said, "It's not up to you."
"Hey, stop messing around. Your family's heroes are all dead, and instead of rushing to mourn them, you're in the mood to make a scene at home." Zhong Qingqing leaned against the wall with a smug look on her face, holding a newspaper in her hand.
Qiao Wanyue had just stepped into her home when she heard these words.
His face darkened.
"Shut up."
She has become increasingly uneasy these past few days, and her dreams are filled with images of Lu Yunzhou covered in blood. She can no longer bear to hear any words of curses directed at Lu Yunzhou.
—Wait for me to come back.
Qiao Wanyue kept replaying the words the man had written in her mind.
He is a soldier.
He said he would come back.
