Southland, Gu family
Xie Zhan personally visited the young master of the Gu family.
Gu Huaisheng accepted the post and greeted him at the gate that day. He wanted to know what Xie Zhan wanted to do by posting messages to him again and again.
Gu Huaisheng led people to the hall while dealing with Xie Zhan's greetings.
"Master Xie has sent greetings to Mr. Gu several times in a row. Is there anything he wants to say to Mr. Gu?"
"Young Master Gu is so refreshing, then I will also speak out?"
Gu Huaisheng made a gesture of invitation.
"I know that the Ji family intends to evacuate the core of the business from the Southland. The Gu family is also interested. They are currently inspecting Liaodong County, right?"
Gu Huaisheng's heart skipped a beat. Xie Zhan was indeed well-informed. "Master Xie is joking. When it comes to business, naturally we invest wherever it is easy to do it. Are you right?"
Xie Zhan smiled and shook his head, "Young Master Gu, your idea is a bit biased. Have you ever thought, Young Master Gu, that if your Gu family goes to Liaodong County, you will always lag behind the Ji family? You know, the Ji family is better than you Invest in Liaodong County first. And because of Xue Xu’s relationship, Liaodong County will definitely treat the Ji family favorably."
"You are one step behind Ji. As the saying goes, one step is too slow, and every step is too slow."
Gu Huaisheng didn't know, but he still suppressed the emotions provoked by Xie Zhan's words, "What exactly do you want to say? Just say it."
Xie Zhan was also straightforward and directly explained his intention, "As the saying goes, it is better to be the head of a chicken than the queen of an ox. What I want to tell Young Master Gu is that you might as well consider it and continue to stay in the Southland."
Gu Huaisheng stopped talking.
Xie Zhan did not keep silent, but went straight to the core of the problem, "Young Master Gu, I know why you are worried about your separation. But I hope you can abandon some prejudices and consider my suggestions."
Xie Zhan chuckled, "You might as well ask the old head of the Gu family later. When you Gu family started, were your hands so clean? Have you always been so observant? Why can't I see it?"
It made Gu Huaisheng embarrassed.
Xie Zhan looked at the sky, drank the last sip of tea in the bowl, said goodbye with a smile, and said before leaving, "Young Master Gu, I sincerely ask you to consider my suggestion. I am not good at value-for-money transactions. The Southland will always need people like Gu who are good at this."
"this--"
"Young Master Gu, there is no need to rush to answer me." Xie Zhan showed an unknown smile, "In three days, Xie will come in person to hear Young Master Gu's answer."
…
The people of Liaodong County are enjoying the joy of a bumper harvest. The weather is good. Compared with the disaster-stricken Southland, their Liaodong County has had a smooth year.
In the fields, people are busy.
In order to help the people harvest in the autumn, the government decided to lend each village two foot-operated threshing machines.
Before the start of the autumn harvest, these threshing machines were delivered directly to the villages by shop staff from the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce in various places, and local people were taught how to use them step by step.
Soon, these veteran farmers discovered that this foot threshing machine could not only thresh rice but also sorghum and wheat, saving time and effort.
During the autumn harvest, the two threshing machines in each village are constantly buzzing from day to night and from night to dawn.
Xiangping military camp is also preparing for the autumn harvest. Mo Lianfeng personally went to Houcheng to invite the county governor to inspect.
Lu Songli thought about the five acres of rice grown using the transplanting method, and decided to go with her father to take a look. Those five acres of rice were the focus of their inspection.
Before the father and daughter set off for Xiangping military camp, Lu Mingzhi returned home.
When he came back to the courtyard, Zhou Congguang greeted him casually, "Junior brother Lu, haven't you seen our second sister come over for a walk in a long time?"
Lu Mingzhi was surprised, "Senior Brother Zhou, don't you like others to disturb you?"
Zhou Congguang touched his nose. It had been a long time since he had seen their second sister. Wasn't he a little uncomfortable?
"My second sister is very busy. She is planning to go to the Xiangping military camp with my father recently."
Xiangping military camp? broken! Wei Wenqian, who was quietly listening to their chat, suddenly remembered something.
He slowly looked at his wife and reminded carefully, "Master, have you forgotten something?"
Master Zhan was still thinking about the formula of lotion and asked casually, "What did you forget?"
"Uncle Gu——" Wei Wenqian said every word.
Master Zhan came to his senses and was stunned.
Several disciples obviously saw their master's expressions change.
Under Wei Wenqian's explanation, several disciples quickly understood the ins and outs of the matter and immediately looked at him sympathetically.
"Mingzhi, when will your father and second sister leave for Xiangping Army Camp? Can I take a ride?" Master Zhan asked, secretly screaming in his heart.
Lu Mingzhi felt that his wife was a little pitiful, "We are leaving in these two days. Master, may I ask for you? It should be fine."
"Then you, you go and ask my teacher now, and I will go pack some things." With that said, Master Zhan left as if his buttocks were on fire.
Sure enough, as Zhan Ruoshui expected, when he rode the Lu family's car to Xiangping Juntun, the Lu family and his daughter were invited away by Mo Lianfeng.
And because he had the favor of Lu Desheng, the county guard, he easily met Gu Zhang.
When they met, Gu Zhang scolded him bloody.
"...Have you forgotten that there is another senior brother who is suffering in the Xiangping military camp?"
Master Zhan felt wronged, can you blame him? It was the senior brother who didn't make it clear. He asked himself to visit him again before leaving Liaodong County. The problem was that he had never left, so how could he come to see him.
Besides, although he didn't come to see him in person, he would ask someone to deliver things to him from time to time.
Gu Zhang asked him, "I heard that you came here in Lord Lu's car this time?"
Zhan Ruoshui: "Yes, yes."
"It seems that you are doing well in Liaodong County." Even the governor's car hit him.
"Haha, just so so." I've never felt so comfortable, hehe.
Seeing his worthless smile, Gu Zhang looked away in disgust.
Accompanied by Mo Lianfeng, Lu Desheng and Lu Songli watched the harvest of the military camp along the way.
After Lu Desheng became the governor of Liaodong County, he summoned experienced farmers and collected their farming experience. After screening, some of the more reliable ones were used.
Therefore, the harvest in Liaodong County this year is good, and one or two bushels per mu of land can be harvested.
Looking at the harvest in the fields, the common people all grinned.
Finally, Lu Songli and his party came to the five acres of transplanted rice fields. The five acres of rice fields were connected together. It can be seen with the naked eye that this rice field is an inch or two higher than the one next to it. It has grown into The rice stalks are all mature and there are no stunted ones.
The wind blows, and the rice fields rustle. As far as the eye can see, every bunch of rice ears bends down evenly, golden, and every grain of rice is full.
Many people traveling with us marveled, "The rice in this area is growing really well."
At this time, the accompanying members of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce brought over the five threshing machines they had brought.
Lu Desheng gave the order, "Start harvesting!"
