After leaving the village and returning to the town, Feng Haidong went directly to the town market and called Feng Baoan to his parents' house.
This time when Feng Haidong went back to Feng Village, he didn't tell Feng Baoan, nor did he ask Feng Baoan to go back to the village.
The main reason is that Feng Baoan's shop at the market has been quite busy these days.
Feng Haidong didn't want Feng Baoan to go back to the village and be distracted.
That evening, Feng Haidong found Feng Baoan and asked him to go back to his parents' house together. On the way, he briefly told him about some things that needed to be done before returning to the village.
After saying that, Feng Haidong said, "Uncle Bao'an, you will still be in charge of the shop in town from now on. If people from other places come to buy crayfish, and they don't bring their own vehicles to transport them, remember to have them contact Haiwen. This will save you a lot of trouble, Uncle Bao'an."
Feng Baoan asked, "Haidong, are you planning to have Haiwen take charge of the markets outside of Beijing in the future?"
Feng Haidong nodded: "I do have this plan. Of course, I need Haiwen and Uncle Bao'an to cooperate. Your main task is to gather the crayfish collected. In the future, whether they are farmed in the village or caught in the wild, they will definitely all be gathered here and then sent to Haiwen in batches."
Feng Baoan then understood and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, Feng Baoan had already received news that Feng Haidong had returned to the village today.
Upon hearing that Feng Haidong wanted his own younger brother to be in charge of the crayfish market in other regions, Feng Baoan had some reservations.
He worried that Feng Haidong would let his younger brother take over all the responsibilities that Feng Baoan was currently in charge of.
If that were the case, Feng Baoan felt that his position would be insecure, and he would lose this income.
Now that Feng Haidong has made this arrangement, and knows that his younger brother will not replace him, Feng Baoan is naturally at ease.
Feng Haidong guessed what Feng Baoan was thinking, and he said with a smile, "Uncle Baoan, we've been cooperating since the beginning, and I certainly can't abandon you. Over the past year, I feel that we've cooperated very well, and I trust you, Uncle Baoan, so the town should still be left in your care."
Feng Baoan immediately said, "Haidong, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of things here in the town."
Feng Haidong said, "With Uncle Bao'an here in town, I can rest assured."
He then added, "Moreover, my stores will also need you to ship the goods to them, Uncle Bao'an."
Feng Baoan said, "No problem, I will definitely leave the best for your store."
He led Feng Baoan back to his parents' home, where his parents welcomed him warmly.
Feng Chungu held Feng Baoan's hand and said, "Baoan, you don't come to our house often when you're in town. Come over more often when you have time, and have your sister-in-law make some snacks to go with your drinks. We brothers can have a couple of drinks together when we're free."
Feng Baoan was quite flattered to have Feng Chungu hold his hand.
"Brother, you're too kind. Actually, I'm mainly here in town to help Haidong. I'm just afraid of causing you and your wife trouble, so I'm embarrassed to come to your house for meals so often."
Before Feng Chungu could speak, Feng Baoan continued, "I know, if I come, my sister-in-law will definitely cook a feast, and you, brother, will bring out your best wine to entertain me. How could I possibly accept that? If the villagers find out about this all the time, they'll all start talking about me."
Feng Chungu laughed and said, "Who dares to say anything about you? Bao'an went back to the village with Haidong and the others today, and everyone in the village praised you."

Feng Baoan said, "They weren't praising me at all. They were just saying things about me on purpose in front of you, Big Brother."
Feng Haidong said, "Uncle Bao'an, everyone in the village really praises you. They all say that you help many people in the village in town. When they come to town for the market, you always treat them to a meal. So everyone praises Uncle Bao'an for being so kind and trusts you, which is why they send you the crayfish they caught in the wild."
Feng Baoan said, "Isn't that all because of Hai Dong's influence?"
Feng Haidong said, "That's not how it works, Uncle Bao'an. What face do I have in the village? If it weren't for you being in town, Uncle Bao'an, why would everyone be willing to give me the crayfish first and then settle the payment at the end of the month?"
Feng Chungu said, "That's right, so Bao'an, you shouldn't be modest. The fact that Haidong's business has become so successful today is largely due to your contributions, Feng Bao'an."
As they were chatting, Liu Guifang came out and said, "Alright, come in and sit down quickly. Bao'an is here, so come in, sit down, and let's eat and chat. All your uncles and brothers are here today, and you don't have anything to do tonight, so have a couple of drinks."
Feng Haidong greeted Feng Baoan as he entered, saying, "Yes, yes, Uncle Baoan, let's have a good drink today."
That evening, Feng Haidong, his younger brother, and his brother-in-law took turns drinking with Feng Baoan.
In addition, there was Feng Chungu, a highly respected figure in the village, accompanying them.
It's fair to say that this made Feng Baoan feel very proud.
Finally, emboldened by alcohol, Feng Baoan said earnestly, "Brother, to be honest, if it weren't for Haidong, I, Feng Baoan, would never have had this opportunity."
I am truly grateful to Haidong from the bottom of my heart. He changed me and made me start to be valued in the village.
As he spoke, Feng Baoan's voice even began to choke up.
“Brother, I heard the news in town while you were in the village today. I’ve been worried all day. I’m worried that Haidong is going to find someone new in the village and have a young person take my place.”
