Workers at the farm who had learned how to operate tractors drove them into the city.
Yesterday everyone knew that Song Chu and others were going on a business trip to other provinces.
In addition to expressing their support, everyone also kept reminding Song Chu to remember to eat well and live well and not to worry about anything else.
In their hearts, they really felt that whatever Song Chu spent was justified.
Song Chu naturally did not object. She had never been someone who would put herself in a difficult position.
The tractor took them to the county station, and they took a bus to the provincial capital.
This time Song Ping's motion sickness was not as severe as last time. Tang Youhua and Tang Wei did not feel sick either. At the beginning of the journey, they were excitedly looking around out the window.
Later, the bumpy ride was too much for them to bear and they could only close their eyes and sleep.
Seeing this, Song Chu said to Gu Yue who was sitting next to him: "I don't know when the road from the county to the provincial capital will be repaired. Otherwise, it feels so torturous every time I come here."
Although she doesn't get carsick, she still feels uncomfortable sitting in the constant bumps and turns.
She misses modern highways.
Gu Yue smiled and said, "When Brother Sheng's factory is well established and the county's tax revenue increases, we can have him build a road in conjunction with the provincial capital."
Song Chu chuckled: "That's right, if you want to get rich, you have to build roads first. He should support it."
"To get rich, you must first build roads. This makes sense." Gu Yue pondered over the words.
Now that the roads are repaired, it will be easier to transport goods from the county town to other places for sale.
Song Chu nodded, "Of course."
The two chatted along the way. Song Chu asked Gu Yue to tell her about Kyoto, and he picked out some interesting things to tell her.
It was already afternoon when they arrived at the provincial capital. Song Chu took a few people directly to the best hotel to check in.
Three rooms were booked, for her and Song Ping, Gu Yue and Song Laosi, and Tang Youhua and Tang Wei.
After entering, everyone took a shower first.
Tang Youhua and Tang Wei were very reserved at first, but they relaxed a little after taking a shower.
"No wonder it costs ten dollars a night, this bed is so comfortable to sleep on." Tang Wei couldn't help but sigh as he lay down on the bed.
Tang Youhua had just finished taking a shower. "Yes, every room has a shower. You can add hot water and just wash yourself. It's really comfortable."
"We are also blessed by Chuchu, otherwise we wouldn't be able to stay in such a good hotel." Tang Wei said with a smile.
If he had been told before that he wanted to stay in a hotel that cost ten dollars a night, he would not have believed it even if you killed him.
In fact, it feels a little unreal now, and it still hurts a little. That's ten yuan! Tang Youhua said proudly: "That's right, all the changes in the village now are brought by Chuchu."
"Let's also experience the cost of ten dollars a night to stay in a place, so that we won't have any regrets when we go back." Although he also felt that ten dollars was a waste of money, he would not object to Song Chu's decision.
Now that you have settled down here, just enjoy it.
After a while, Song Chu took everyone to a state-owned restaurant for a good meal.
Tang Youhua and Tang Wei looked at the three meat dishes, two vegetable dishes and one soup on the table, and finally realized why the meal expenses for Song Chu's last business trip were so high.
They didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but because they had never been so wasteful before, they couldn't help but feel the pain.
In fact, when I first came here, Song Ping had similar ideas to theirs, but now I can eat and live in peace and comfort.
After dinner, Song Chu asked Song Laosi to take the other three for a walk around the hotel, while she and Gu Yue went to the black market in the provincial capital.
Because of limited time, Song Chu did not look for Qin Qiulan, and planned to look for her when he came back.
When the two arrived at the black market, there were no more people selling things alone in the alley.
Soon someone said something inside, Gu Yue responded from outside, and the door was opened.
The person who opened the door saw that the two people looked a little strange, looked at Gu Yue and asked: "Who introduced you here?"
Gu Yue said a name, and the man was not so alert, "Come in."
After entering, the man asked: "What do you want to buy?"
"I want to buy thick quilts, shoes, nutritional supplements," said Gu Yue.
He would have to buy something more practical to send.
The man thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll take it out and show it to you."
These are all black market bosses, and they have abundant resources and things at their disposal.
However, they are unlikely to sell to ordinary people, unless they are acquaintances or introduced by acquaintances.
Otherwise, these days, if you do this kind of black market business involving large amounts of money, you are risking your life.
Soon, the man brought out a lot of the varieties that Gu Yue needed.
Gu Yue picked out four quilts, two thin and two thick, and bought a few pairs of rubber shoes, and a lot of malted milk and adult milk powder.
Seeing that there were clothes and pants made of work cloth, I bought four sets of them, as well as socks, towels and some daily necessities.
After all, his father and elder brother were reformed people in the countryside, and if they were dressed properly, it would definitely attract people's attention.
The total cost was over two hundred yuan, and the two of them went out carrying two bags of things each.
Originally, Gu Yue said he would carry it himself, but Song Chu took the heaviest one directly and said, "I'm strong, so forget it with your small body."
Gu Yue: “…” He was actually disliked.
However, he did not reject Song Chu's kindness. Gu Yue had a cold personality, but he was not the kind of chauvinistic straight man.
The two men walked out of the alley and when they reached the lane they came in from, eight or nine men came towards them.
Seeing the two men carrying large and small bags, everyone knew what they were here for.
However, it is relatively rare to see people buying so many things at once.
One of them had an idea and coughed a few times on purpose to see his companions' reactions.
Suddenly, one of them looked at Song Chu with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Song Chu." He called out tentatively with some uncertainty.
Song Chu knew at first glance that this group of people were not good people, especially when he saw the greed in their eyes.
She was still a little confused when she heard one of them calling her. She was sure she had never seen this person before. "Do you know me?"
This is a middle-aged man, who is a bit ugly. His tall and strong build makes him look fierce.
He walked over quickly, "It's really you, you damn girl."
"Of course I know you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been forced to leave the county."
He spat on the ground and said fiercely, "I'm so lucky today that I caught you."
He has been hiding everywhere recently and had no choice but to come to the provincial capital to live with his cousin. But the process of going from a boss to a younger brother is still very sad.
Especially after coming here, his life was much worse than before, and he always hated Song Chu in his heart.
