Chapter 190 How many women's hearts must this man break?
A boy had a pair of captivating eyes, but he wasn't effeminate; his high, straight nose gave him a heroic air.
His jawline was sculpted, giving him a menacing air. He glanced lightly at the group of fuming female workers and put his mask back on.
The mask completely covered most of his face.
Liu Nian now understands why her cousin went on eighty blind dates and didn't agree to any of them—because he has the looks and talent.
There were already few men in the factory, and even Li Dapeng was constantly being thought about by many women. But now, a handsome young man has arrived, and all the women, whether married or not, are getting restless.
Especially for married people, their jokes are indiscriminate, and Liu Nian gets a headache just thinking about it.
“Zheng Gan, we haven’t seen each other in a long time, have we?” Zhang Suzhen looked at him and clicked her tongue in amazement. “How many young girls must he have ruined?”
Zheng Gan had been out there doing something for a long time and hadn't been home. She almost broke ties with her family, but she probably compromised and went home in the end, agreeing to work at their factory.
Two new people came to the factory, and they were both very popular; you could hear them talking about it everywhere.
People looked down on Li Dongbo for a while, and then started staring at Zheng Gan with infatuation.
Liu Nian was eating with Zhang Suzhen in the cafeteria when she watched Zheng Gan, wearing a large mask, pick up his food, frown, and walk outside.
Then he was cornered by a little girl.
Zheng Gan stepped aside, his tone icy, "Get out of the way!"
The little girl blushed and said, "These are steamed buns my mom made. I'm giving them to you to eat."
Amidst the jeering crowd, Zheng Gan simply walked past the girl and strode towards the door.
Without saying a word, he simply left the girl standing there.
Zhang Suzhen pouted at Liu Nian, "This cousin of mine, tsk tsk, he broke that girl's heart."
Liu Nian nodded in agreement, "This will break the hearts of many more women in the future."
However, according to feedback from warehouse staff, Zheng is very serious about his work, works actively, and doesn't slack off at all. He just doesn't like to talk to people, and he gets annoyed when someone talks to him.
Especially when chattering young girls get close to him, he turns and leaves without a word. He always wears a big mask and has cold, unsettling eyes; it's creepy to look at him.
The men working alongside him envied him, and one of them couldn't help but say with a hint of jealousy, "If I had your face, I would have been married long ago! Why would I have waited until now?"
"I bet quite a few are even willing to pay extra for the bride price, saving on dowry money, how great is that?"
Zheng Gan never discussed these things, sitting silently to one side.
After listening to their warehouse manager's words, Liu Nian and Zhang Suzhen raised an eyebrow and said with the air of someone who had been through it all, "He must have someone he likes, and he's really serious about it, so he doesn't even glance at other women."
"Otherwise, how could a young man of this age, who is so handsome, not have a girlfriend?"
Liu Nian thought so too; his cousin was acting very mysteriously and unusually.
I heard that Li Dongbo is very dedicated to his work, carefully checking the equipment and only entering the duty room after confirming its safety.
Then he would patrol twice more in the middle of the night. He worked there for several months and never made a single mistake.
The weather is getting warmer, and the triplets are already six months old.
Liu Nian dressed Sanbao in a pretty little dress with lace trim. Liu Nian helped her stand up, and she hopped and skipped along, her little dress fluttering like a butterfly about to take flight.
Erbao and Dabao both wore simple bellybands with shorts underneath, prioritizing comfort and coolness.
It's exceptionally hot today; it hasn't rained since May began. The scorching sun hangs in the sky, baking the crops until the leaves curl and wilt, and even causing cracks to appear in the ground.
However, their entire county was not affected at all, thanks to the initial proposal from Su Xu and Liu Nian.
Drill deep wells! They can draw water from the wells to irrigate their crops and prevent a complete crop failure due to drought.
Because of this decision, County Magistrate Zhang received direct commendation from his superiors, and a promotion was practically guaranteed. Overjoyed, he came directly to Jiangjuntun to personally thank Su Xu and Liu Nian.
"You were the ones who had the foresight to dig a deep well back then." County Chief Zhang was also glad that he had listened to them at the time, otherwise he would be in the same predicament as the other county chiefs, running around in circles without any solutions.
Liu Nian asked, "Didn't you speak to the leaders of the other counties beforehand?" If they had listened, things wouldn't have turned out this way this year.
County Magistrate Zhang shook his head, sighed, and said, "I know your character and trust you. But what about them? I don't have enough evidence to convince them, especially when it comes to politics."
Liu Nian nodded hesitantly. Being in a high position, he naturally had to think more.
"Tell me, how can I thank you?" County Magistrate Zhang laughed heartily, waving his hand. "As long as you make the first move, I'll definitely agree!"
Su Xu didn't stand on ceremony. He took out a map of the county town, drew a circle on a certain spot, and said, "Sell me this land."
County Chief Zhang was taken aback and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Su Xu said, "Build a house."
"You're going to build houses on such a large piece of land?" County Chief Zhang said with some surprise. "Most of this is wasteland. Who do you think would want to live here?"
That's true now, but it won't be in the future. In the future, to accelerate urban and rural development, parks and houses will be built here, which will make this land much more valuable.
In fact, Su Xu had better plans, such as acquiring land in some first-tier cities, but he preferred to start by building up his hometown.
Firstly, it can boost the local economy and provide more jobs for the villagers. Once the conditions are right, we can take them out to go further.
Since Su Xu had already spoken, and County Magistrate Zhang owed them such a huge favor, he naturally didn't hesitate and found a way to sell the land to Su Xu.
Just a few days later, a document was issued from above to increase urban and rural construction, which directly doubled the value of the land.
County Chief Zhang clicked his tongue, thinking to himself, "How come Su Xu is so lucky? He can directly negotiate cooperation with the government just by holding this piece of land."
The most urgent task was to quickly set up a construction team. Su Xu could be considered one of the first contractors of that time.
But to everyone's surprise, at this crucial juncture, Liu Nian's factory ran into trouble. The whole family was immediately thrown into a frenzy of work and chaos.
