Chapter 1725 Good Things
After Lu Xiaoxiao returned home, she looked at the time and saw that it was already past four o'clock. She went into the space to take a hot bath, and then went to the kitchen to make ginger soup. She planned to send the ginger soup and chicken soup together to the masters in the evening.
After Lu Xiaoxiao left, the captain immediately put away his pipe. Then he called his three sons over and asked them to call the other two captains and Liu Ermei's mother to the village office, saying that he had something to discuss with them.
When Liu Baozhu and the others heard what their father said, they didn't ask why, but went straight to the room where the raincoats were kept, put on the raincoats, and then walked out of the yard.
"Old man, where are Baozhu and the others going?" Aunt Caihua had just finished cooking the porridge when she saw Liu Baozhu and the others walking out of the yard, so she asked the captain.
"I asked them to call someone for me. I'm going to go out to do some work and I may not be back for dinner, so you don't have to wait for me to come back for dinner."
"Isn't the rice in the field ready to be harvested? What are you doing out there now?"
"Xiaoxiao has come up with a way to help us solve the rice problem in the fields. I'm going out now to discuss this with the other two captains."
"Are you going out now or wait a moment?" Aunt Cauliflower asked after hearing the captain's words.
"In a moment."
"Then I'll get you a bowl of porridge now. Drink it before you go out."
"good."
After the captain finished drinking the porridge, he calculated the time and put on his raincoat and rushed to the village office.
"Captain Liu, is there anything you want us to do?" Captain Zhang asked the captain when he walked into the office.
"Don't be impatient. Wait for me to take off my raincoat first."
Captain Zhang smiled awkwardly after hearing the captain's words. He also knew that he was too anxious just now.
The captain didn't care about Captain Zhang's expression at all at this moment. He was originally dissatisfied with Captain Zhang because Captain Zhang had people put pressure on him. If it weren't for the fact that Captain Zhang and he were from the same village and they had work to discuss together, he wouldn't have wanted to pay any attention to Captain Zhang.
"Everyone, please sit down. I have a lot to tell you and it will take a long time, so please all sit down, otherwise you will be tired from standing." The captain said to the people in the office after taking off his straw raincoat.
After hearing the captain's words, Captain Zhang found a stool and sat down. When Captain Wang and Mrs. Liu saw Captain Zhang sitting down, they also found a stool and sat down.
After everyone in the office sat down, the captain went straight to the point and told everyone in the office the solution that Lu Xiaoxiao had come up with.
"Captain, the method Lu Xiaoxiao came up with is feasible, but can she guarantee that she can buy food with the money she earns?" Captain Zhang asked the captain after hearing the captain's words.
"Captain Zhang, I think you haven't figured out one thing yet, that is, Lu Xiaoxiao is just helping us find a solution. It's up to us whether to use her solution or not. She doesn't owe us anything, and she doesn't need to promise us anything."
Captain Zhang's face suddenly turned ugly after hearing the captain's words, but he knew in his heart that the captain was right. However, he just didn't want to take the risk. If he didn't use the money he earned to buy food, the people in the village would blame them.
Therefore, in order to avoid being implicated by any problems that might arise, he naturally had to make full preparations in advance.
