Jiang Xiuqi waved to Jiang Qiao, who was sitting in the distance, "Comrade Jiang Qiao is here too. Girl, come over and meet the comrades from the county town."
Jiang Qiao walked over with a smile. "You were discussing serious matters earlier, and I didn't want to disturb you. Now that you all know what happened, what do you think of this restaurant—"
Ou Ziyang glanced at Jiang Qiao, then looked at the people who had come with him, and asked, "What do you guys think?"
"No problem, this is a complete frame-up. This is something to be praised. Captain Jiang and his team have done a great job in coming up with this solution to alleviate the pressure on the city."
These kids are great; they're ambitious, grateful, and know not to cause trouble for their fellow villagers. They're all wonderful.
Jiang Xiuqi chimed in, "We have another restaurant in the city, run by those kids. They come over regularly to pay us the bills, and they use all the ingredients from our village. They even buy the grain at a negotiated price. If everything's fine here, then everything should be fine on the outskirts of the city, right?"
The other party nodded. "Of course, we came here to understand the situation. Now that we know the situation, we certainly won't make things difficult for those in the city."
The matter was settled. Ou Ziyang slammed his fist on the table in anger. "Which bastard did this despicable thing? They were genuinely helping us solve our problems. Where are we going to find jobs for so many children?"
They all live in the city; are you expecting these young men and women to beg on the streets?
The others sighed, "That's right. So we can't let them have their way. We need to investigate properly. This bastard doesn't even dare to write his own name. He's obviously a coward."
Jiang Qiao spoke up from the side, "Later, you should hand that letter over to the police. I'm worried that enemy agents are up to something. You all know what the enemy is up to; they're not holding back any good intentions."
You've all heard about the enemy spy incidents before; even when I got married, those enemy spies didn't stop.
Therefore, we hope that leaders at all levels will take this matter seriously and work together to root out these scoundrels who are causing trouble behind the scenes. If they are enemy agents, that would be even better, as it would reduce future harm.
If not, then let those who were wronged later know what the power of justice is.
Ou Ziyang clapped his hands and said, "That's well said. We'll definitely report it when we get back, and then we'll have the police take over this matter."
Comrade Jiang Qiao, rest assured, we all know what kind of person you are. You have personally sacrificed a lot for our county and for the peace and tranquility of us all. We will absolutely not tolerate any wrongdoing against you. A good comrade is not someone to be slandered, but someone for everyone to learn from.
Jiang Qiao smiled sheepishly, "Well, I'll have to trouble you all. You all know who I am and what my situation is. We can't do anything illegal."
Come, come, now that we've finished discussing the important matters, sit down and have some tea. It's so cold outside, warm yourselves up. Don't rush off, I'll be going back later too, let's keep each other company.
Also, please help us promote our restaurant. Our prices are reasonable, the food is incredibly delicious, and the portions are generous. It's a great value, and we guarantee everyone who comes will be well-fed and satisfied.
Ou Ziyang couldn't help but chuckle, "Comrade Jiang Qiao, you really know how to seize opportunities, you don't even let us go."
Jiang Xiuqi explained with a smile, "You guys stay in the county town, so you don't know what our restaurant tastes like. Let me give you a heads-up first. When you have time, go and try our restaurant on the outskirts of town. Consider it a treat to improve your taste."
In our countryside, we don't have many other things, but we have a lot of local specialties. As long as the villagers aren't lazy, they can go into the mountains to find some things and supply them to our restaurants. So, the taste is definitely different.
Let us earn some money too, so that ordinary people can get more dividends, and those kids can save some money so they can get married. They're all getting on in years and it's time for them to get married.
"Without our parents around, I think we, as elders, should think more about what's best for our children."
Jiang Xiuqi played the victim card, while Jiang Qiao kept saying she was framed. Putting aside Ning Zhengtao's matter, the old man himself had problems.
But why did this have to happen at this very moment, right when they were launching a fierce counterattack against the enemy? You can't believe she was wronged. So, the first thing they said was to steer the conversation in that direction.
As for Ou Ziyang, he was definitely a great helper in assisting Jiang Qiao and the others. Everyone is smart, and with these people around, it's hard not to think things through. There's a high chance that someone is really trying to trip up Jiang Qiao and the others behind their backs.
Who is Jiang Qiao? He's a big name in the industry. Not only can they not afford to offend him, but even if they could, they'd have to see if he'd done anything wrong.
Jiang Qiao is a person who is neither greedy nor corrupt. When people talk about her, they all give her a thumbs up. Apart from her background in the Gu family, there is really nothing about her that people can criticize.
"Comrade Jiang Qiao, don't worry about this. We will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. There's no such thing as framing someone like this. Back then, you almost lost your life trying to catch bad guys. We won't allow a comrade like you to be framed."
The accountant came out of the kitchen. "Come on, everyone, have some soup. It's so cold outside, let's warm up. This is from our greenhouses in Gujia Village. Try it, and please recommend it to us later!"
The group felt a little embarrassed, but Ou Ziyang helped them by saying, "Since we're here, let's make the best of it. If we don't try the food, how will we know if it's good or not? We won't be able to help promote it to the village later. These kids are hoping to earn some money to get married. Let's just consider this a contribution to helping these kids realize their dreams of starting a family and building a career."
After that, Jiang Qiao had nothing to do. With people like Yu Deshui taking care of things and the team leader and accountant keeping them company, a simple meal was enough to satisfy everyone.
It turns out these people didn't even eat before they arrived. They came from the county town for inspections without stopping, a fact that even Jiang Qiao had to admire.
However, Jiang Qiao did go out with the accountant and bring some fresh vegetables for these people, grown in the team's greenhouse.
"This is also for everyone to take back and help promote it. The greenhouses we built in our team are all on the slope, so they don't take up any first-class farmland. The restaurants can't use them all. Later, see if there's any other place that needs help. If you can help us set them up, we'll be very grateful."
Ou Ziyang looked at the contents of the basket and said, "Wow, fresh mushrooms and tomatoes in the dead of winter! These are rare treats. It's not common to eat green vegetables in winter."
"If we get this stuff to the county town, it'll definitely fetch a good price. Later, if any of you have connections with the supply and marketing cooperative, help them out; consider it a good deed."
"Sure, why not? I have relatives who work there. They'd love to have something so new. This is great news, comrades. I'll take care of it. I'll treat you to drinks later."
