After finishing the phone call with the two children, Xiao Jiahua held his breath and seemed like a different person.
She paid special attention to the subsequent purchasing work and even took the initiative to urge Tong Qifang and Director Wang.
At that time, the Taifeng County government was also very efficient. After just one day, the payment for the goods was approved.
After the bosses finalized the strategy, all that remained was the specific implementation work.
Picking cotton and packing, success is in sight.
Taifeng County has a large demand for cotton, but the warehouse storage capacity for long-staple cotton is limited, and most of it needs to be picked right away.
Captain Jiang specially opened up a green channel. He not only dispatched soldiers from the Corps to pick cotton day and night, but also mobilized local residents to assist the cotton warehouses and concentrate their efforts to help with packing.
Xiao Jiahua also walked out of the guesthouse and worked in the cotton fields every day, working part-time as a cotton picker and tractor driver, helping to pick and transport cotton.
Her heart seemed to have wings, and she just wanted to go home to see Dabao and Xiaoshitou.
While working, she wished she had three heads and six arms. In just two days, she not only got tanned, but also lost weight.
Tong Qifang felt sorry for her, but couldn't persuade her.
She knew that Jiahua was doing this for the children, so she helped and worked extra hard.
After all, Tong Qifang herself has an 80-year-old mother who is still lying in Taifeng County Hospital. How could she not be worried?
The military and civilians worked together and finally completed the picking task as planned.
The warehouse was getting fuller and fuller, the packing work was in good order, everything was ready except packing.
According to the plan, the cotton will be loaded onto the military truck overnight, and it will be transported to the Ke City Railway Station and sent to Taifeng County as early as tomorrow afternoon.
Xiao Jiahua and Tong Qifang even planned to celebrate after returning home tomorrow.
They didn't expect that an accident would happen at the last stage.
.
As the picking work was nearing completion, the Construction Corps received a notice from its superiors to evacuate the cotton warehouse.
Captain Jiang also led his men to the nearby villages to help the cotton farmers there harvest cotton.
The people who stayed in Ti County to move the boxes and finish the work were mainly local workers who formed a small loading team.
That evening, when the cotton was half loaded, Xiao Jiahua and Tong Qifang decided to finish work and return to the guesthouse early to pack their luggage.
As soon as they walked out of the warehouse door, they were stopped by two people from the shipping team.
Xiao Jiahua knows them.
These are two brothers, one is called Lu Da and the other is called Lu Er. They are the captain and deputy captain of the loading team respectively.
Their parents are a mixed Uyghur-Han family. They have been able to speak both Chinese and Uyghur since childhood, so they are good at socializing and are well-connected in the local area.
The two men were tall and strong, one with a big belly and the other with a double chin. Among the vast majority of people who were skinny due to hunger and poverty, Xiao Jiahua could not help but be deeply impressed by them.
"Comrades from the school, comrades, where are you going?" Lu Da asked.
Seeing their shifty eyes, Xiao Jiahua knew they had bad intentions, so he didn't rush to answer them. Instead, he asked, "Captain Lu, this is a packing job. Is there anything else you can teach me?"
"I dare not say what you are talking about. You are a manager and a factory director, both of you are capable people. Lu Er and I are rough guys, so I won't keep you in suspense."
Lu Da changed the subject and said, "Today, Captain Jiang has transferred all the soldiers from the corps away, leaving us a dozen brothers to help you load the truck overnight. We are short of manpower and the work is hard. I hope you will be kind... give us some appreciation!"
Xiao Jiahua understood immediately that this person was a kickback collector.
The King of Hell is sending you away, and the little ghosts are difficult to deal with.
The people in the border areas, whether they are Uyghur or Han, are very kind and hardworking.
The two brothers in front of me were completely unexpected.
