Chapter 104 An Unexpected Request for Help
The days passed by uneventfully.
The villagers were working enthusiastically to help build the factory, and everyone in the village was in high spirits and full of joy every day.
Gu Zuozuo has been quite busy lately.
During the day, I go to the mountains to collect herbs, and at night I make medicinal oils for muscle strain.
Recently, the villagers have been going up the mountain every day to cut wood, haul stones, and transport timber... They're so busy that their feet are practically touching the back of their heads, and their bodies have inevitably suffered damage.
"Zuo Zuo, the brigade leader and Uncle Village Chief are going to deliver grain today. Mengmeng and I are going to pick up the packages. Do you want to come with us?"
Gu Zuozuo peeked at Meng Tian, who was shouting loudly outside the gate, and waved her hand to indicate her refusal.
She was busy and didn't have time to pick up the package. Besides, she felt at ease knowing that the captain was with the two of them this time.
Meng Tian didn't press the matter; she said goodbye and ran off.
The grain delivery team is still waiting at the village entrance.
Gu Zuozuo chuckled and shook her head, turning her attention back to the proportions of the medicine powder she was mixing.
The establishment of the factory was not without its challenges.
Many people don't understand why a glass factory would be built in such an inconspicuous remote mountain area.
Not to mention the uneven terrain, even transportation is a problem; transporting goods back and forth would be a waste of manpower, material resources, and financial resources.
Several surrounding brigades are causing trouble in the county every day, even threatening to report any shady dealings. This is unfair.
Originally, Duan Jianhua was worried that these people would destroy the factory. He was so worried that he frowned every day, and a big blister appeared on his lip, causing him to grimace in pain every day.
Who knew that in just a few days, a team of people from above came to clear the mountain and build a road, and they simply moved away a small mountain that was blocking the road between Malutun and the main road outside...
The kind that's truly leveled to the ground...
This time, not only were the people of Malutun dumbfounded, but even the surrounding brigades fell silent.
What's the point of arguing about this? How can we argue? We can't win!

[Ding! A distress signal has been received from an ancient dimension. Do you wish to accept it?]
Gu Zuozuo paused in her actions. A distress signal from an ancient dimension? What was that?
[Host, agree quickly! There's a reward!]
The system's excited voice almost split into two, and it was spinning around excitedly.
Okay, I'll accept it.
As soon as he finished speaking, the light screen reappeared in the empty space in front of him.
Unlike the shopping webpage I saw last time, this time it was just a green planet with a big question mark on it.
Click to confirm receiving the signal, the question mark disappears and turns into an exclamation mark, the planet then enlarges, and soon a little girl with tattered clothes and bloodstains all over her face appears on the screen.
Gu Zuozuo was stunned for a moment, unable to understand how someone with a system could be in such a sorry state.
Hello, what can I do for your help?
The girl on the screen seemed to only just realize what was happening, and froze in place the moment she saw Gu Zuozuo.
"This...this really is modern...Waaah...Waaah...Mommy...I want to go home..."
Gu Zuozuo and the system were both dumbfounded, staring at the girl on the screen crying miserably with tears and snot streaming down her face, not knowing what was wrong with her.
One person and one system just stared blankly at the girl crying for more than half an hour.
It wasn't until she finished recounting her ordeal, between sobs and hiccups, that Gu Zuozuo understood why she was crying so much, and a hint of sympathy welled up in her eyes.
The girl's name is Zhao Wanjun. She is a modern college student who worked hard to pass the civil service exam and got a job.
