Chapter 106: 106 handsome men’s abilities
"I’ll talk to the leadership when I see them tomorrow," Wei Kaiyun still couldn’t be sure if the leadership had the same intention as before.
"Xiao Wei, is it that young girl who changed your mind?"
"More or less. We have established our relationship now.
But, Old Yang, I’m scared." Wei Kaiyun took a big gulp of wine after he spoke.
"Your worries are valid."
"I’m just afraid of wronging her."
Old Yang sighed. This was also why he was afraid of starting a family.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xinyu had insomnia tonight, worrying about Wei Kaiyun.
She only managed to fall into a daze in the latter half of the night and woke up a bit weary the next day. However, she knew today’s work was crucial, so she ate a bowl of beef noodle soup, part of her previous stash — only ten bowls left.
Looking at the courtyard, the shape of the shower room had already taken form. It was progressing quite quickly.
Instead of heading to the factory, she went straight to the railway bureau’s entrance to wait for Lv Beiguang.
When she arrived, she saw Lv Beiguang already there waiting.
"Why are you so early?"
"It’s not early, let’s hurry inside."
By noon, the two came out of the railway bureau with smiles on their faces. The director here directly called the headquarters for instructions, and unexpectedly, they agreed, and it was for international trains.
"Secretary Jiang, let me take you to see the rosewood; she has three pieces at home."
"Let’s eat first; my treat."
Lv Beiguang nodded. The two of them filled up at a restaurant, but Lv Beiguang didn’t let Jiang Xinyu pay.
They cycled under the scorching sun through the streets.
Their destination was a suburban house.
A girl opened the door, "Why did you come here?" She spoke to Lv Beiguang quite bluntly.
"Aren’t you trying to sell wood? I brought a buyer for you."
"Hello comrade, I want to buy rosewood."
"Come in, you wait outside." The girl was really blunt.
Lv Beiguang stood still, just at the doorway.
"Comrade, I won’t sell this rosewood, only trade it for food."
"Then what do you want to exchange for?"
"Anything edible is fine. My two kids are suffering from malnutrition. What use is it for me to keep this?"
While she was speaking, two particularly beautiful children ran out, "Are they twins?"
"Yes."
"So beautiful."
"Auntie, who is this sister? Why did she come to our house?"
Jiang Xinyu squatted, took out a handful of candies from her bag, and divided them, giving half to each child.
"The sister is here to see your aunt, these are candies, for you two to keep."
Jiang Xinyu noticed the children swallowing their saliva but not taking it, instead looking at that woman comrade.
"Aren’t you going to thank the sister?"
Jiang Xinyu watched the children leave happily, then looked at the woman beside her.
"Comrade, I have cornmeal, rice, and flour, what do you want?"
"These three pieces of rosewood could have fetched a thousand ounces of gold before, but now they are worthless.
How about this, give me 100 pounds of cornmeal, that should help us three get by until the autumn harvest."
"A hundred pounds is enough?"
"I still have some food rations."
"Alright, I’ll also give you an extra five pounds of flour."
Jiang Xinyu truly felt embarrassed but didn’t dare to give more.
"Thank you. Come over tonight to push it."
"Okay, I got it. Is a small cart okay?"
"You won’t be able to push it. You should use a pushcart; you can pull it along."
"Understood, I’ll come over at eight o’clock tonight."
Jiang Xinyu came out and saw Lv Beiguang eagerly looking at the courtyard.
There’s a story here.
"Secretary Lv, let’s go."
Lv Beiguang had heard the children’s voices just now and really wanted to see them. But the door slammed shut again.
He had no choice but to ride his bike and follow Jiang Xinyu.
"Secretary Jiang, did you manage to trade for the rosewood?"
"Yes, that comrade wants to exchange for 100 pounds of cornmeal."
"Haha, 100 pounds of cornmeal?"
Jiang Xinyu heard his laughter full of sadness.
"Yes, I still have it at home, and I decided to trade."
"Secretary Jiang, do you still have food tickets?"
"Yes, I haven’t even had time to buy food with these 30 pounds of food tickets. Do you need them?"
"Secretary Jiang, give her 30 more pounds of food tickets. I’ll give you a piece of camphor wood worth twenty yuan."
"Secretary Lv, there’s no need, I can give more without needing anything from you."
"No way, take it, if you don’t want it I’ll burn it." Lv Beiguang said angrily.
What a middle-aged man going through a chuunibyou phase.
"Alright, I’ll also give her an extra ten pounds of rice. Don’t worry."
"When are you planning to get it?"
"Tonight at eight o’clock."
"Okay, wait for me at home. I’ll bring the cart to deliver the camphor wood, then go with you to bring it over."
"Alright, let’s go, I’ll take you to my house to recognize it."
The two parted ways at Jiang Xinyu’s house. Lv Beiguang went back to find Sun Baosheng to report for work, and they agreed to meet at the textile factory.
"Little girl, you came back just in time; the sewage pipe was connected as you suggested with the chimney. Take a look?"
Jiang Xinyu took a glance. It really had that look. The chimney was as thin as an adult man’s fist.
"Master, could you buy a few more sections and run it underground as well, directly to the roadside drainage ditch? I’ll pay for it."
"Sure, the money has already been paid, this can be discussed when the work is complete."
"Alright. Master, can you pave a pathway from the entrance to the hall door? It will be convenient if it rains.
Also, the roof of the main room needs your help, let’s settle everything at the end."
"No problem, your courtyard wall can also be raised."
"I don’t think the neighbors will agree, right?" After living here so long, she had never met the neighbors.
"You can ask, there’s no rush with that."
"Got it, it’s time to go to work."
Upon arriving at the office, Jiang Xinyu sat down to rest, feeling her face burning from sun exposure, she was startled, quickly patting it with cold water.
The sudden ringing phone startled her. "Hello!"
"Secretary Jiang, come to my office. Director Sun and Secretary Lv are here."
"Yes."
After two hours, Jiang Xinyu finally wrote an application that both leaders approved.
"Secretary Jiang, you’re really good. Beiguang, you should learn from this."
Lv Beiguang nodded, "Secretary Jiang is truly capable, I am inferior."
Jiang Xinyu felt a bit embarrassed. There was a template, and she was familiar with it, so she could write it out.
"It’s really urgent, today is Friday, and we have to wait until Monday to go."
"Just be patient, a couple of days aren’t much," Qian Jun comforted Sun Baosheng.
As the end-of-work bell rang, Jiang Xinyu saw them off and told Qian Jun she was going to find Wang Ailing.
The two had agreed to meet at the station at eight o’clock tomorrow.
