Chapter 3006: Remote Countryside
In the next few days, apart from working, Lu Xiaoxiao stayed at home reading and practicing, and her life was quite stable.
However, she had only lived a few days of peace when she received a notice to go on a business trip, and she was assigned to a remote area. Although Zhang Yuanyuan and another person named Zhang Jian were accompanying her, she was still full of resentment about the place she was going.
Because the place she was going to this time was not only a remote and poor place, but also deep in the mountains, which meant that she had to walk a lot of mountain roads.
It would be fine if it were spring or autumn, but now it is the hot summer, and you can imagine how difficult her journey to purchase food is.
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you? You look listless." Zhang Yuanyuan asked Lu Xiaoxiao when she saw her lazily leaning on a stool.
"Nothing, I just feel my life is too hard."
"You are worried about your business trip."
"Yeah, aren't you worried?"
"No, because I have a way to get food, so you can just treat this business trip as a trip, and I will take you to get food when we come back."
"Tell me quickly, where did you get the food?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked curiously after hearing Zhang Yuanyuan's words.
"I asked my uncle to help me get it. Don't worry about how I got it. All you need to know is that we can complete the mission this time."
"Wouldn't that be a bad idea? After all, we need to purchase a lot of food this time. Would it cause trouble for your uncle?"
"That shouldn't be the case. My uncle is the village secretary and has a certain amount of power in the village."
After hearing what Zhang Yuanyuan said, Lu Xiaoxiao had a bad feeling in her heart, so she asked Zhang Yuanyuan, "Does your family know that you asked your uncle to help you get food?"
"I don't know. I went directly to my uncle. He has always loved me since I was a child. He would never refuse anything I asked. So when I asked my uncle for help this time, he agreed immediately."
"Yuanyuan, have you ever thought about your uncle's situation? Although your uncle is the village secretary, there are also village chiefs, accountants, and team leaders in the village, and their power is no less than your uncle's.
This time your uncle used his power to help you get so much food. Those people will definitely be dissatisfied with your uncle and think that your uncle is a traitor. This is particularly disadvantageous to your uncle.
So I think if I can avoid asking your uncle for help, I won’t ask him for help, because I don’t want your uncle to be harmed because of our affairs.”
Zhang Yuanyuan frowned after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said. After a while, she said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, thank you for your reminder. If it weren't for you, I might have really harmed my uncle."
"You're welcome. After all, you asked your uncle for help because you wanted us to complete the mission."
"Hey, what do you think we should do next? Do we really have to buy food from that village that has trouble even getting enough to eat?"
“Of course, since we were assigned to that village, we naturally have to buy food from there, and I believe we can definitely buy food, after all, that village is located in the mountains.
You also know that the mountains are rich in resources, and there will definitely be more food in the fall, so we will definitely find a way to exchange for food by then, so don't worry."
