Chapter 224 Ox



Mu Jingheng dropped Xu Xinning off at the entrance of the department store, and then went directly to the county committee. Of course, he had put away his car when he entered the city, and in order not to attract attention, he took out his usual mode of transportation—a bicycle.

Knowing that the livestock would be transported back in the morning, the county leaders were all eagerly anticipating it.

The transport team's vehicles went directly to the meat processing plant, where personnel from various local meat processing departments were already waiting, and the plant would coordinate and distribute the supplies.

When the truckloads of livestock arrived, people lined both sides of the road wherever the trucks passed, as if a high-ranking official had come to inspect the area. Some even raised their hands and shouted slogans.

None of the drivers in the transport team had ever experienced such a magnificent scene. Seeing so many people standing on both sides to welcome them, they all felt that today was the highlight of their lives.

The job of a transport crew is desirable, but it has never been so respected.

The drivers stood tall, tears welling in their eyes, as if they were completing some extraordinary task; their spirits were high, and their expressions were serious.

What a glorious achievement!

How many times in a person's life can they experience something as glorious as today?

Even if it happens only once, you'll have something to brag about to your descendants.

Mu Jingheng kept a low profile. He only met with the county magistrate and his secretary, and did not show up to anyone else. Although he had taken a shortcut through the formal channels, it was still a rather unscientific move.

Until Mu Jingheng took the money and left, no one else in the county knew that this capable person had already come.

Xu Xinning, who is not short of money, bought a lot of things for her family at the department store. After all, she is a rich woman now. With the division of labor in the production of medicines in the army, the money she swindled from William, and the livestock in the space that Mu Jingheng sold twice, she can't be said to be richer than a country, but she is definitely the richest woman in her province.

When Mu Jingheng picked her up, she had already secretly put the things she bought into her space in several batches.

Xu Xinning usually buys food, clothing, and daily necessities, but with the guidance of Mu Jingheng, a reborn person, she still bought some things that would appreciate in value in the future.

Mu Jingheng is now very focused on making money. He gets anxious whenever he thinks about his future plans. What if he has all the people and the right opportunity, but is just short of money? That would be a disaster.

Therefore, Mu Jingheng had long since shed his aloof and noble demeanor as a young nobleman, and had become a money-grubbing tool reeking of money.

The two rode their bicycles to a secluded spot, where Mu Jingheng fawned over Xu Xinning and handed over all his savings.

In essence, it was simply moved from a storage space that two people could enter to Xu Xinning's private space.

Mu Jingheng is a self-aware person. No matter how he wants to amass wealth, he always remembers that the family's financial power must belong to his wife.

After Xu Xinning finished sorting out the money she had handed over, she gave Mu Jingheng a big hug in high spirits.

She felt that this life was very different from the previous one. In her previous life, she didn't know anything about money. Her princess residence had people managing it, and her external assets were also managed by people. Logically speaking, she should have checked the accounts frequently, but she was young at that time and was obsessed with studying medicine, so she never asked how much wealth she actually had. It was her mother who would come and take a look every now and then.

She knows exactly how she earned her money in this life, and because of this, she often feels a sense of satisfaction and sometimes can't help but look at the fruits of her labor.

In this respect, she is much happier in this life than in her previous life.

Therefore, happiness does not depend on status or money, but on whether you like this lifestyle.

Xu Xinning's embrace made Mu Jingheng extremely excited. His Xin'er was now actually throwing herself into his arms. He thought that with her personality, he might never get this benefit in his life, but he didn't expect happiness to come so quickly.

Excited, Mu Jingheng wanted to do something, so he pulled Xu Xinning into the grove of trees by the roadside.

When they came out, Xu Xinning's lips had turned into sausage lips. One of them walked ahead angrily, while the other followed behind with a silly grin.

Perhaps she was truly angry, for Xu Xinning had forgotten about transportation and activated her internal energy, walking with a powerful and imposing gait.

Mu Jingheng didn't disturb them, but followed closely behind, thinking that he would definitely have to coax them properly that night.

After walking for a while, Xu Xinning suddenly thought of something, stopped, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then released two strong, healthy oxen.

Although Xujia Village has tractors, which can be used for plowing in many situations, the village also has a lot of mountainous terrain, so oxen are needed for many tasks.

In Xujia Village, there are two cows, a mother and her calf. The mother cow is old and is now mainly used for transportation, while the calf has grown up and is used for plowing the mountain fields.

With more and more wasteland being reclaimed, and the addition of Mantoushan Village, the brigade no longer had enough cattle.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Xinning can add two cows to the village.

Mu Jingheng actually had the same idea. He wanted to tell Xu Xinning on the way back, but she fell asleep in the car and he didn't get around to it.

Would you call this telepathy?

Mu Jingheng immediately seized the opportunity to move closer. Although Xu Xinning's angry expression was quite vivid, he still didn't want his Xin'er to be angry for too long.

"Xin'er, here!" Mu Jingheng took out an ice pack from his spatial storage and handed it over.

Xu Xinning gave him a coquettish glare, took the ice pack and put it on her lips. If the swelling didn't go down quickly, she would be embarrassed when they got to the village.

"Xin'er, I'm sorry, I got too excited." Mu Jingheng hugged Xu Xinning, and seeing that she didn't object, he held her and patted her back gently, as if coaxing a child.

Actually, Xu Xinning wasn't that angry. She just felt that this person was too reckless. After all, they were outside, and if others saw them, not only would the two of them be in trouble, but it might also affect the Xu family.

A few minutes later, Mu Jingheng pushed away Xu Xinning's hand holding the ice pack to look at her lips. The swelling had subsided, and they actually looked quite beautiful now, red and moist.

"Is it ready?" Xu Xinning asked, looking up.

Mu Jingheng touched it tenderly and said, "I'll be more careful next time."

Xu Xinning rolled her eyes, a rare occurrence for her, and let out a snort.

“I was just about to tell you to take this opportunity to get a couple of cows for the brigade, and it turns out we had the same idea,” Mu Jingheng said.

Xu Xinning: "There are too few oxen in the brigade, so we have to plow the fields manually every time. It's not only too time-consuming, but it also makes people very tired."

Mu Jingheng: "Yes! After all, there are too many mountains in the brigade."

Hsu Hsin-ning: "Getting these two back should improve things a lot."

Xu Xinning actually wanted to get a few more, but that would inevitably cause gossip, since the cows came from the military, and it wouldn't be right if other brigades found out.
