"Okay, I'll listen to you." Gu Yue understood what she meant after thinking about it carefully.

She thought long-term, which even he hadn't thought of before.

A bicycle came from behind, and Song Chu pulled his arm, "That's right, you're right to listen to me. It's said that Director Song is protecting you."

Gu Yue avoided the bicycle, feeling the warmth on his arm, and his face became hot. "Yes, yes, I will rely on Director Song for protection from now on."

The two returned to the hotel talking and laughing. Song Laosi discovered that Gu Zhiqing, who was aloof and taciturn, was in a good mood today.

She would also take the initiative to talk to him from time to time, and he couldn't help but sigh that his sister was really amazing.

Of course, Gu Zhiqing is also very capable. He dares to touch a tigress like his sister. He is definitely a hero.

The next day, Anton and Xu Ting drove over to pick up a few people.

Anton is the driver. He has transported goods to that county town before, so he is quite familiar with the road.

Fortunately, it was a county belonging to the provincial capital, and we finally arrived after driving for six hours.

Several people had dinner at a state-owned restaurant in the county town and then drove to Hongxing Village.

After another four hours of driving and a bumpy ride, we finally arrived at Hongxing Village.

Fortunately, they set off at five in the morning. Gu Yue and Xu Ting both knew how to drive a small minibus, so they took turns driving for Anton, otherwise it would have taken a long time and been very tiring.

The car stopped at the entrance of Hongxing Village at around 3:00 p.m.

This village is quite remote, and the road is all mountainous. If you have poor driving skills, it is entirely possible to drive directly to the bottom of the mountain.

Anton drove this section of the road because he was more experienced.

Suddenly, a car stopped at the entrance of the village. Many villagers called the village captain and then surrounded him.

"Who are you? Why are you in our village?"

Xu Ting was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and a pen in his shirt pocket. He looked like a cultured person.

He smiled and said, "We are from the provincial capital. There is a poverty alleviation project that we are in charge of, so we came to see your situation."

This was a reason Xu Ting came up with himself, and there was indeed such a project in the provincial capital, and his cousin was one of the persons in charge.

This county was on the inspection list, so he borrowed his cousin's identity and could also help the other party with the inspection, killing two birds with one stone.

When they heard about poverty alleviation, everyone in the village laughed. In addition, several of them had outstanding looks and temperament, so no one doubted it.

"So he's a comrade from the provincial capital. No wonder he looks different at first glance."

Soon, the village team leader came over with the village cadres.

After a very polite greeting, Xu Ting showed his work ID. Seeing that they were indeed from a large unit in the provincial capital, the captain believed what they said even more.

Their village is extremely remote, backward and poor. It would be great if they could be helped out of poverty.

So he took them to the village committee enthusiastically, and Xu Ting also asked a lot of questions about the village in a serious manner.

This was an order from his cousin, and since he was doing the inspection, he naturally had to do the work.

The captain and others answered very enthusiastically, but Song Chu felt that their answers were not very convincing.

Xu Ting wrote down everything he knew. "We understand your situation, but we still have to look around tomorrow. The forest resources here are quite rich. Let's go up the mountain tomorrow to see if there is anything worth digging."

The captain didn't understand what "exploiting value" meant, but he still smiled and nodded: "No problem, I'll have someone take you up the mountain tomorrow."

Xu Ting smiled and said, "It's okay. We brought hunting rifles with us. We'll go into the mountains and have a look tomorrow."

"Now take us around the village," he said.

The captain naturally would not refuse, "Okay, I'll take you there right away."

It was difficult for them to meet the leaders from the county, let alone being told that they were from the provincial capital, so they were extremely polite and enthusiastic, as if they were inferior to them.

The team leader and others attached great importance to Xu Ting's inspection team. They took them out of the village committee, introduced the village as they walked, and emphasized that the place was too poor and in great need of poverty alleviation.

Xu Ting just joked with him, and the whole journey was relatively harmonious.

Song Chu asked, "I heard you have a farm here?"

"Yes, we have a farm and raise some livestock." The captain nodded.

Song Chu smiled and said, "Then take us to the farm. I run a breeding farm. If your place is suitable, you can consider cooperating in breeding together."

The captain smiled and said, "This comrade is really young and promising. No wonder I felt you were extraordinary when I first saw you."

"Although we are poor here, we still raise livestock relatively well." It seems that it is also a good idea to cooperate in breeding.

"Captain Wu, you are too kind." Song Chu said with a bit of arrogance of a successful person. Only in this way could he make these people more convinced.

Then he professionally talked to the team leader about some experiences in raising pigs and chickens, and the team leader nodded repeatedly.

I thought to myself that he was no wonder he came from the provincial capital. He actually paid so much attention to raising chickens and pigs.

He trusted their identities even more and wanted to get in touch with them as much as possible, even with a bit of flattery.

When they were almost at the farm, they saw several children aged seven or eight beating a little boy of five or six years old.

The little boy hugged his head and curled up, but he didn't cry or compromise. He just clenched his lips, with stubbornness in his eyes.

The captain's face darkened instantly when he saw this scene, and he shouted, "What are you doing? Stop it now."

These brats are really troublesome. It's fine if they bully this little exile normally, but today they actually let the inspection team from the provincial capital see him. I don't know if they will leave a bad impression.

Several children were frightened when they saw the captain coming with a group of people. They immediately ran away like birds and beasts, cursing the child on the ground as a bastard or something like that.

The captain's face became even darker. He planned to let the adults from these families teach these brats a lesson later. It was simply outrageous.

"I'm sorry, the kids in the village are all naughty, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all." He said with an embarrassed smile.

Song Chu saw the child slowly crawling up. The corners of his mouth and cheeks were bruised, and his clothes were torn. It was obvious that he was beaten severely.

She frowned and said, "Is this a child from your village? Those kids just now were a bit too much. So many people bullied one person."

The captain cursed those brats in his heart again and explained with a smile, "He is not from our village, but the son of a prisoner in reformation at the farm. He was sent here last year."

"Even if he's the son of a prisoner in reform, you can't beat him like this. What if he kills him?"

Song Chu looked at the little guy with a sullen face and pursed lips. He picked up the two sweet potatoes that were crushed on the ground, put them in his arms, and limped towards the farm. He felt a little uncomfortable.

Gu Yue frowned as he looked at the little guy's back. This child gave him a deep sense of familiarity, and the scene just now made him feel uncomfortable.
