Seeing the monkey's dejected and absent-minded expression, Fu Hongxing knew that the child had been taken away, and he felt reluctant to let him go.
But the monkey also knew that he, a rough and tough man, would not be able to raise a child properly.
Although Liu Weidong is a man, he is much more meticulous than a monkey.
Moreover, Liu Weidong is much smarter than Monkey. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been Liu Weidong who came up with the idea for that business deal, Fang Meng who helped out, and Monkey who did the work.
Sure enough, upon hearing Fu Hongxing's words, the monkey looked up in alarm, his still reddened eyes wide open, and he put aside the sadness he had just been feeling.
Considering his master's strictness towards him, it seemed a bit inappropriate for him to take so many days off this time. No wonder his master was angry!
The monkey couldn't help but clutch its head and let out a mournful howl.
"Brother Hongxing, what am I going to do?"
Fu Hongxing snorted coldly and replied, "You don't even plan things out properly, and you didn't even tell your master the reason before asking for so many days off. What do you suggest we do?"
The monkey couldn't help but whisper in defense, "That's because I heard something was wrong with the child, and I got worried!"
He never expected the county town to look like this.
"By the way, Brother Hongxing, if there's no food to sell in the county town, will there be no food left at the coal mines?"
Upon hearing the monkey's question, Fu Hongxing glanced at him and then nodded heavily.
"I came to see you this time for another reason, which is to ask you to go into the mountains with me again."
Upon hearing Fu Hongxing's words, the monkey felt a jolt of fear.
"Into the mountains?"
Fu Hongxing nodded.
“Brother Hongxing, it’s snowing now, so it will definitely be difficult to get into the mountains.”
Not only is the road difficult to travel, but there is also a high chance that even if you go in, you won't be able to exchange for food.
After hearing what the monkey said, Fu Hongxing remained silent for a long time.
He knew all too well that he might return empty-handed from his trip to the mountains to exchange for grain.
However, the children at home still need to eat.
He neither objected to nor regretted Ning Jing lending the grain to the Zhao family.
He learned about the Zhao family's care for his family not only from Ning Jing, but also from Xiu Hua and Tie Dan.
A real man should repay kindness.
"Whether we can get it or not, we have to give it a try."
Fu Hongxing replied.
However, when the two returned to the coal mine, Fu Hongxing was summoned to the factory director's office.
Because the monkey was right next to Fu Hongxing when he was called, the monkey went to the factory director's office with Fu Hongxing.
He remained outside the office, unaware of what was being discussed inside.
After waiting for a long time, Fu Hongxing came out with a blank and indifferent expression on his face.
"W-what's wrong? Brother Hongxing, what happened?"
The monkey thought Fu Hongxing had been criticized and kept asking.
Fu Hongxing shook his head and said softly, "Looks like we don't need to go into the mountains! Monkey, I'm taking a caravan out this time to collect grain. Do you want to come along?"
"If you're willing, I'll talk to the factory manager and ask him to transfer you here as an assistant."
"What……?"
The monkey was a little slow to catch on, staring at Fu Hongxing with wide eyes for a long time.
Once they came to their senses, they started laughing.
Nodding repeatedly, he said to Fu Hongxing, "Go...of course I'm willing."
However, this joy didn't last long, and a smile that looked more like a grimace appeared on his face.
"What about my master?"
Fu Hongxing rolled her eyes at him and snorted, "I'll go tell him that if you can move up the ranks, your master can't possibly stop your future."
