With Su Ying at home, she would not take her second brother with her. As for Zhang Hewan, her third brother was not very clear-headed, so she would not take him with her either. She did not want to lose anyone else in her family. But before going to the border town, she went to a place first——
Sister Lan didn't expect Zhang Xingrong to step into her territory again. She was quite surprised: "It's you. I didn't expect you to come here again. Please come in."
Zhang Xingrong nodded and followed him into the house. Just like last time, nothing seemed to have changed here, it was still the same.
"Have some tea." Sister Lan poured her a cup of tea.
"No thanks." Zhang Xingrong pushed it away and stated her purpose directly, "I came here this time to do business with you."
Sister Lan raised an eyebrow and looked at her: "You should know my situation when you go back. Do you still want to do business with me?"
"I know." Zhang Xingrong stared at her. "So it's because you owed me something last time that I'm paying you back this time."
Sister Lan was stunned for a moment, then watched the girl across from her smile, a truly enchanting one. She was naturally enchanting, a look she had previously concealed, but now boldly displayed. Perhaps because she had a backer, she no longer needed to conceal it, hence her overall beauty, a beauty tinged with enchantment and a touch of worldliness.
"I quite like you, little girl. You're right, I owed you last time, and I'll pay you back this time. Tell me, what business do you want to do?"
"I need a few people who are willing to work hard," Zhang Xingrong said. "Money is not a problem."
Sister Lan smiled and said, "Money makes things easier. I'll arrange it for you right away."
It is indeed easier to get things done with money. Zhang Xingrong quickly got five people. She only took two of them with her. She gave money to the other three and asked them to find a way to get to the border town by themselves. After they arranged everything, she set off with them.
The people following her were called A Yan and Lao Bai. They were both taciturn men, but there was a fierce look in their eyes, and they didn't look like good people.
The three of them didn't speak during the whole journey. If she got tired of driving, she would let the other two take over. They did whatever they were told to do and were very obedient.
The journey to the border town was long, and in those days, there were no navigation systems, so they had to consult maps along the way, which delayed them for a while. Furthermore, they were driving at night, with no lights on the road, so they had to drive carefully. But she was in a hurry and didn't want to stop, so she rushed all the way.
They continued their journey until four in the morning when they arrived at a small town and stopped to eat and rest.
Perhaps because she was worried about Shitou, she didn't feel tired. Ah Yan and Lao Bai seemed to have gotten used to it and were even more energetic than her.
The three of them had breakfast, bought some food for the journey, and then continued on their journey.
While the three of them were on their way, Zhang Hewu and his brothers searched the entire production brigade, even extending their search to the town itself, where they ran into Ma Le. Upon hearing that Shitou was missing, Ma Le immediately ordered the commune staff to look for him. This was happening within their own commune, a missing person, so how could they just ignore it?
Meanwhile, after returning home, Luo Wangshan and his friends told their family about Shitou being taken away, and the villagers rushed to help. At Zhang's house, only Su Ying was there. Considering the pregnant woman's emotional state, they consoled her and then went out to look for help.
With so many people helping out, the whole town was abuzz. Later, when people at the factory heard that their director's brother had gone missing, they brought their families to help look for him.
