Fan Xiaofan left the alley, her heart heavy with sorrow.
She never imagined that people would worry about going hungry. In her original world, people were more concerned about which food to indulge in that day.
However, seeing is believing.
The child was covered in bruises from the beating, but what hurt even more was his convulsing stomach.
The pain from the wound may be bearable, but hunger is probably the most unbearable thing when there is no food in the stomach.
That family, just like the one in her current identity information, is biased. Otherwise, why would the other children get boiled eggs while he gets none and is even beaten?
Hopefully, the food she brought would ease his burden.
After wandering around for a while, Fan Xiaofan couldn't find the black market and felt a little frustrated. Without a black market, she couldn't sell her goods, so she couldn't exchange them for money, and she couldn't get more raw materials to make things.
The thatched hut was also extremely poor. Fan Xiaofan had no choice. With the appointed time for meeting with Grandpa Niu approaching, she was ready to give up and head to the agreed-upon place to wait.
She wandered around the small county town alone for most of the day, her mouth growling with hunger. She took out a compressed biscuit and slowly chewed it.
After waiting for a long time, Grandpa Niu finally arrived, but he looked worried.
When Grandpa Niu saw Fan Xiaofan waiting obediently, he forced a smile, but sighed all the way back.
Fan Xiaofan asked, "Uncle Niu, what happened?"
Grandpa Niu didn't hide anything: "The tractors in our village have broken down. My son-in-law has a distant relative who works as a gatekeeper at a farm machinery factory in the provincial capital. The village chief told me to go and inquire about it, but alas..."
The village chief had made countless trips to the small county town, but no technical personnel were being assigned to the area. The village chief had no choice but to use all available resources to have Grandpa Niu go and inquire about the situation.
Grandpa Niu had been running around all day, his lips were sore from talking so much, and he finally managed to get some information from the people. His son-in-law also ran around and said all sorts of nice things. Finally, he got the news that the Agricultural Machinery Department would definitely not send anyone down if it did not receive the letter from the commune.
Even if I receive it, there are always a series of events, and I don't know when it will be my turn.
The technicians at the agricultural machinery department over there are beyond the reach of people from their small village.
They were just gatekeepers at an agricultural machinery factory, but they were all incredibly capable people.
This news came only after a bag of sweet potatoes was sent out.
Grandpa Niu sighed. The village was counting on that tractor. Back when the tractor first arrived in their village, the whole village went to see it. This iron lump worked incredibly well without eating grass.
If this tractor breaks down and becomes unusable, not only will the villagers be heartbroken, but in these days, everyone is struggling to get enough to eat. Without the tractor, the work in the fields will likely fall behind. There's already not enough food, oh dear, it's really worrying and frustrating.
Fan Xiaofan blinked. A tractor?
After settling in these past few days, she has been running around in the mountains trying to find some simple raw materials to make things to exchange for points. Now, when she heard about the tractor, her eyes lit up instantly.
In the technological products that Fan Xiaofan used to study, there were no tractors like those ancient inventions. By the time of their time, fieldwork had been handed over to specialized agricultural robots.
She didn't say much to Grandpa Niu, thinking she would go back and talk to the village chief.
Grandpa Niu looked dejected.
The village chief, who had specially come to greet them at the village entrance early in the morning, felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing this.
Li Dafu knew the situation was probably not good, so the two of them went to the village chief's house to talk carefully. Before they knew it, Fan Xiaofan had followed them.
