After Qian Feng returned from the meeting on Hainan Island, he happened to hear the Second Company Commander's self-criticism to the entire army and his promise to send his mother back to her hometown the next day.
Qian Feng learned about the events of the past two days from Political Commissar Nan and was furious. When he learned of the commissar's punishment method, he was stunned for a moment, as the method seemed somewhat familiar!
Political Commissar Nan said with a smile, "You just got back, go and rest first! Your daughter is probably still waiting for you at home!"
Qian Feng nodded and walked home with a smile. He wasn't stupid. From the incident of Political Commissar Nan learning from him about the Second Company Commander, Qian Feng felt that the whole process seemed to be similar to Qian Duoduo's method of disciplining those disobedient children in the village. He would give the person a little treat at the beginning, and then slowly use the power of the parents or teachers to make them submit.
Thinking of this, Qian Feng quickened his pace. When he reached his doorstep, he saw Chen Jiao coming out. She smiled and nodded at Qian Feng before going home.
General Qian Feng took off his hat and saw Qian Duoduo watering plants in the yard. When he saw him return, he immediately stood up and said, "Brother, you're back."
Qian Feng smiled and said, "What are you busy with?"
Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "I'm staying here a bit longer, so I figured since you can't grow vegetables in your garden, I'd make a little vegetable patch in this yard. Sister Chen just helped me with that. I'll plant some flowers along the wall to add some color to our house." Then she added, "I have some cherry seeds here. I'll plant them for you later, so when my sister-in-law comes in a few years, we can have cherries to eat."
Qian Feng laughed and said, "That would be great!"
Qian Duoduo said, "I was planning to have noodles tonight. It's perfect that you're back. I also have some of my mom's fried sauce. Are you tempted?"
Qian Feng laughed: "That's great, I'm craving it too."
After the two brothers finished their noodles, they sat comfortably in the recliners. Qian Feng said with a smile, "We didn't have this recliner at home before!"
Qian Duoduo swayed back and forth, squinting as she looked up: "It would be nice if there was a tree in this yard!"
Qian Feng laughed: "You certainly know how to enjoy yourself!"
Qian Duoduo said, "This house belongs to the military, but life is my own. I live in my brother's house, so naturally I want to enjoy the benefits that my brother, the regimental commander, brings me."
At this point, Qian Feng asked, "Are you very familiar with Political Commissar Nan?"
Qian Duoduo nodded and said, "Political Commissar Nan is a very good person. My Third Battalion Commander and the First Battalion Commander are both very good people."
Qian Feng sighed and said, "This time, my elder brother wasn't home and couldn't take good care of you!"
Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "I'm not afraid. By the way, brother, do you think there's going to be development on Hainan Island? I have some spare money and I'm thinking of making an investment or something."
Qian Feng, who had been leisurely drinking water, suddenly stopped: "How much money do you have?"
Qian Duoduo calculated for a moment: "It should be tens of thousands of yuan!"
Qian Feng then looked at Qian Duoduo: "You little girl, how come you've earned so much money in just a few years?"
Qian Duoduo said, "What's this little bit of money to me? If I could get more money, I could build myself a business empire!"
Qian Feng laughed: "You've got quite the ambition, you should hurry up and focus on your studies!"
Qian Duoduo ignored him, secretly calculating when the real estate market on Hainan Island would plummet.
While resting that night, Qian Duoduo closed the door, entered the farm, and traded with Qin Feng and Su Ruanruan. After that, she traded with Han Jun for Andrographis paniculata, which made Han Jun very happy. He immediately traded 20 low-grade crystals, which surprised Qian Duoduo. She seriously suspected that Han Jun had run out of gold coins. After all, he had earned so many gold coins from her last time that she was penniless!
As for the thousand-year-old ginseng that Han Jun wanted to buy, well, Qian Duoduo said it could only be traded in gold coins, nothing else. Then Han Jun fell silent. Qian Duoduo said smugly, "Sigh, I'm poor too. To invest in real estate, I have no choice but to pressure Grandmaster Han Dan."
The next day after Qian Feng went to work, he chatted with Political Commissar Nan. From what Nan said, he could tell that he praised his sister highly, not only saying that he and his sister were both successful people, but also praising his parents. He also noticed that Nan's attitude towards him had changed, and he was more cooperative at work!
After Qian Duoduo followed Professor Yuan around the vegetable garden, she heard Professor Yuan say, "The main problem here is the water source. If we can solve this problem, we will be able to eat fresh vegetables on Qiannan Island."
Everyone is well aware of this problem, but while identifying the problem is easy, solving it is much more difficult!
Here, the problem isn't just about vegetables; grain is also a major issue!
After Yuan Quan, Yang Bin, and Zhou Zhuang left Qiannan Island, Qian Feng arranged for three people to take charge of Professor Yuan's affairs. Professor Yuan looked at the dense forest not far away and said, "Have you ever been inside this dense forest?"
Upon hearing Professor Yuan's words, Qian Duoduo and Liang Kun also turned their gazes toward the dense forest that covered a considerable area.
Pan Yang looked over and said, "We went there after we landed on the island, but it's very eerie. We were clearly wandering around in the dense forest for a long time, but it felt like we were going in circles. Later, we even did an experiment: two people went in with ropes tied around their waists." He chuckled as he said this.
Liang Kun asked, "What was the result?"
Pan Yang sighed: "The two of them had ropes tied around their waists, and they were really spinning in circles. The comrades outside with binoculars saw them circling around two trees."
Liang Kun looked at Pan Yang in surprise: "How could this be?"
Qian Duoduo's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She had a premonition and looked into the depths of the dense forest. She seemed to have a strange feeling, and this feeling did not originate from herself, but from the metal plaque with a farm space that she had picked up on the mountain when she was a child.
For years she had carried the metal tag with her, and it had always remained quiet and unassuming. This was the first time, so Qian Duoduo was extremely curious!
However, now didn't seem like a good time, so everyone went home together.
Qian Feng had already returned, bringing a fish with him. Qian Duoduo was very happy and asked, "Brother, where did this come from?"
Qian Feng said with a smile, "I asked the orderly to buy it. We went on a field training exercise in the afternoon and saw a boat returning to the island. After we came back from the exercise, I asked him to buy this fish."
Qian Duoduo smiled and said, "Brother, let's treat the political commissar and the battalion commanders and their families to a meal! I'll cook, and also to thank them for taking care of me during this time."
Qian Feng nodded. He remembered Qiao's matter, and the political and 3rd Battalion Commander had also contributed. In addition, the 1st Battalion Commander's wife, Chen Jiao, had also taken good care of him. It was indeed appropriate to treat them to a meal.
