Gong Linglong, who had returned to Seoul, didn't know that her mother had opened her heart. She was meeting with the Yao brothers at the time. She made an appointment with them as soon as she returned to Seoul. She sold the fifty or sixty pigs in the space to them in batches. Today's batch was the last ten.
The fat pig she raised with great effort was a high-quality product produced by the space, so of course she had to keep some to eat, and she ordered a whole pig from the Yao brothers in advance.
In order to avoid arousing suspicion, she rode her bicycle several times to move all the pork away. She gave 20 kilograms of fat and 10 kilograms of pork to the orphanage she often visited. She also cut two or three kilograms of good meat for several leaders in the office, and lied that she bought it from the military pig farm.
The leaders of the unit did not take anything for free, as they all paid her. As for the vegetables she brought in every now and then, they did not hesitate to charge her.
"Linglong, we are back."
On Sunday morning, after Lu Jingchuan finished his breakfast, he borrowed a car from the army and went to the train station to pick up his mother-in-law and uncle.
Gong Linglong was busy preparing lunch at home wearing an apron. When she heard the voice, she immediately came out of the kitchen and greeted him with a bright smile: "Mom, uncle."
"Linglong."
The Gong siblings had been on the train for nearly two days and looked a little tired.
Seeing that all the neighbors had come out, Gong Wantang and his eldest brother briefly greeted everyone and gave a handful of White Rabbit milk candies to the children in each family.
Gong Linglong had already cleaned up the study room. There was a single bed in it for her uncle to sleep in. She helped him carry his luggage into the room.
"Mom, you take a bath at home. I'll take my uncle to the bathhouse."
Lu Jingchuan brought hot water to the bathroom, took daily necessities, and led his uncle to the large bathhouse inside the army.
Although Gong Chengjun is already forty-five or forty-six years old, he has been well maintained and looks only about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old. He has a tall figure, handsome features, and a gentle and elegant temperament. As soon as he arrived at the military family area, he attracted countless burning gazes.
The sisters-in-law next door all came to ask about her uncle, and Gong Linglong was a little overwhelmed. In the end, she made half-truths and evaded them.
During the last earthquake relief work, the Seoul Military Region received praise from the higher-ups, and the military wives were also singled out for commendation and rewards for their support.
After the commendation ceremony, all the military wives who went to the disaster relief were arranged to work at the medicinal materials base, and all of them were regular employees.
The wives of soldiers who stayed at home to help take care of the children also got job opportunities, but they were not formal employees. They had a six-month probation period. As long as they performed well and did not make any mistakes during the six months, they would be converted to regular employees.
This is a great thing for the wives of soldiers. They all went to work ten days ago. Except for the children who go to formal school, all the other younger children were sent to the kindergartens and nurseries within the army.
Gong Linglong is a public official, so she is not eligible for this job. She only has a commendation certificate and a certificate of honor, which are issued by the top leader himself.
Gong Wantang made the greatest contribution to the disaster area and later donated the prescription for free, earning her a commendation in the newspapers. Regarding her job, no arrangements had been made, but Elder D had made it clear that he would meet with her later to arrange a job.
When Gong Chengjun came back from taking a shower, the meal was ready. In order to cater to her uncle's taste, Gong Linglong made some light and nutritious steamed and stewed dishes.
Lu Jingchuan poured everyone a large bowl of soup and said, "Mom, go to the hospital for another checkup this afternoon. Don't do any hard physical work. Just lie down and rest at home."
"No need to go for a follow-up checkup. I went for a checkup before I came back, and the doctor said it was healing well. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."
"Okay, then you can continue to rest at home and don't do any farm work. Aunt Yuan and her sisters-in-law have already helped plant the winter vegetables. They only need to be watered occasionally. Linglong has already sent gifts to each family as a thank you."
Lu Jingchuan didn't let her work, nor did he let Gong Linglong work in the fields. He took care of all the watering and fertilizing. He also took the time to chop a lot of firewood, and the front and back of the house were piled with dry firewood.
Gong Wantang was resting at home, and Gong Chengjun had nothing important to do, so he picked up and dropped off his niece to and from get off work every day.
"Linglong, do you want to get rid of some of the food in the space?"
"Yes."
All the pigs in the space have been disposed of. Gong Linglong has already ordered a batch of piglets from the Yao brothers, which will take at least half a month to deliver. Now there are nearly 100,000 kilograms of food piled up in the space, and she is thinking of asking her uncle to help dispose of it.
"I'll go make the arrangements this morning. You can come out this afternoon on some work grounds, and I'll arrange for someone to sell this batch of grain."
Gong Chengjun has connections and a group of capable assistants, and supplies like food are the best-selling products.
Seoul is the largest transportation hub in central China. It has well-developed transportation to the north and south, and is very convenient to travel by land, rail, or water. No matter how much material is transported, it can be transferred quickly and in a timely manner.
With her uncle's help, Gong Linglong felt relieved and nodded in response: "Okay, let's meet at Hongqi Square at three o'clock in the afternoon."
Gong Chengjun arranged three large warehouses in the morning, and they were all filled with food as soon as she arrived. After finishing this task, he took her to meet a capable assistant.
"Linglong, this is Sun Ting, your uncle's right-hand man. He's older than you. If you need any goods, please contact him in advance. You just need to supply them, and he will handle the rest."
Sun Ting was naturally smart and clever to be recognized and appreciated by him. He immediately said, "Comrade Gong, here is my contact information. If you need anything in the future, you can contact me at any time."
"Okay, I have a reliable supply channel here, and I may have to trouble you often in the future, Brother Sun." Gong Linglong said politely.
"It's not hard, it's what I should do."
Sun Ting has been with Gong Chengjun for many years. He has been accompanying him in searching for the whereabouts of the mother and daughter over the years, and he is very clear about their position in his heart.
After leaving this batch of grain to him, Gong Chengjun took her to another warehouse and said to her, "Linglong, I arranged for someone to buy several thousand kilograms of medicinal herb seeds, forty or fifty varieties. I don't know much about growing medicinal herbs, so let's take the seeds back first and ask Wan Tang for advice on planting later."
"good."
After Gong Linglong collected the medicinal seeds, she asked her uncle to help purchase a rice mill and ordered twenty or thirty trucks of honeycomb coal. She planned to raise more pigs, cattle, sheep and poultry in the space in the second half of the year, build a large farm and vegetable and fruit garden, and produce and sell all the food and drink at home.
The things his niece asked for help with were all small matters, and Gong Chengjun readily agreed. He got everything she needed the next day and even personally helped her set up various circles in the space.
Gong Wantang is a person who cannot sit still. After resting at home for two days, he went into the space to help plant medicinal herbs. The brother and sister worked together and slowly planted all the medicinal herb seeds.
