Chapter 245: Two hundred forty-five, this is truly a divine car_1

After the meal, Chenzi started off in a brand-new Santana 2000 toward the village.

He had to go back and look for Tian Laosì first.

Now that he had land and seeds, the only thing missing was someone to help him look after the fields.

And that person could only be Tian Laosì.

Generation after generation, his family had been farmers, and he was truly skilled at it.

Choosing him was definitely the right decision.

Driving into the village, the car stirred up a cloud of dust from the ground.

It was a little after two o’clock, and those who were going to work had already left their homes.

They were gathering in groups, chatting and walking towards the fields.

Seeing another car entering the village, many people set their hoes down and started to enjoy the spectacle.

"Look, look, another car has come to our village!" Wang San craned his neck and his face spelled two words, gossip!

"What’s going on, how come there are so many cars coming and going these days?"

Chief Li was equally curious.

It felt like there were always cars coming to the village lately.

Everyone was accustomed to a quiet life; honestly, the sight of a car sparked everyone’s curiosity.

"Chief Li, I think your brain’s really waterlogged, do you even have to guess? If this isn’t Chenzi’s car, I’ll write my name backwards!"

In the village, the only person who could afford to change cars was Chenzi.

After all, he had been driving a van before!

And the car that came to pick up Ji Pianran had a little golden man on it.

So it was only logical for Chenzi to change cars.

Upon hearing this, Wang Wu immediately asserted, "Impossible, Chenzi just bought that van not even a month ago, and this is a sedan. Did you see the badge? That’s Volkswagen! Santana 2000! A fine car, indeed!"

He had seen this car, Lei Guanghui’s eldest son, who drove for a leader, had the exact same one!

The last time he went to the city with Lei Guanghui, his son even took them for a spin in the leader’s car.

It was honestly the best car he had ever seen in his life.

But the car was not cheap; he heard it cost over a hundred thousand.

It was frighteningly expensive.

By this time, Chenzi’s car had already pulled up in front of the group, who originally planned to simply turn the corner to go home.

But seeing everyone craning their necks to look inside the glass, Chenzi thought it over and decided to greet everyone anyway; otherwise, it would have been quite embarrassing for him.

He stopped the car in front of the group, rolled down the window, and greeted everyone with a smile.

"Are you all heading to the fields to get busy?"

Once the car stopped, Wang Wu reached out to touch it, "Goodness, Chenzi, how much money have you made?"

"Yes, this car is too beautiful!"

Men have a natural love for cars, and seeing such a Santana, they really couldn’t look away.

"Chenzi, changing cars like toys, it’s just too extravagant," Sun Yang couldn’t help exclaiming.

He couldn’t even afford a van, yet Chenzi had already switched to a sedan.

It was incomparable.

"Chen’er, this car is a Santana 2000, right? I heard that people in the city call it a ’divine car’!"

Wang Wu was excited; he had heard this firsthand from Lei Guanghui’s eldest son and couldn’t be mistaken.

Hearing this, Chenzi laughed lightly, "It’s for work, just for work. This car is actually just for getting around. The van is practical, but not very presentable, right?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Yang’s eyes widened.

"Getting around? What kind of ’around’ is so expensive that it requires such a nice car!"

No wonder he was wealthy; he had just started selling matsutake mushrooms, and now he was already in the textile business.

Gu Chenzi is really something.

Sun Yang couldn’t help but sigh.

Gu Chenzi couldn’t help but laugh and cry, "A substitute for walking, that’s exactly what it means. I haven’t even got my land sorted yet, still selling fabric, ha, only you could come up with such an idea!"

After finishing, he waved to everyone, "By the way, I’ve got things to do, so I’ll be going first. See you later on the field ridge, folks."

He had to go back and find Laosì!

...

Tian Laosì had just started his noon break too, climbing off the kang and stepping into his old cloth shoes specially worn for farming, grabbing a hoe, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, he was ready to head to the fields.

No sooner had he stepped out the door than he saw Gu Chenzi driving back in his new car.

He couldn’t help but secretly admire him; truly, it was Gu Chenzi, getting a new car after just one month, and it’s a sedan this time!

But unlike those who were just there for the spectacle.

Tian Laosì was genuinely happy to see Gu Chenzi faring well.

Gu Chenzi was a good man, and he wished him well!

Gu Chenzi stopped the car and, seeing the envy in Tian Laosì’s eyes, couldn’t help but smile, "Laosì, get in, I’ll take you for a spin."

Since he was going to the field ridge himself, why not let Laosì experience his car a bit?

Hearing the invitation to get in the car, Tian Laosì quickly shook his head.

The car was so clean, and his shoes were still muddy; he couldn’t get in and risk dirtying Chenzi’s car.

Tian Laosì waved at Gu Chenzi, "You come down, we can just talk right here."

He felt more at ease standing on the land.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chenzi chuckled, "What’s the matter, afraid of getting the car dirty? Come on, get in, I’ve actually got something to discuss with you at the field ridge."

He truly had something to discuss with Tian Laosì.

Looking at the shiny new Santana in front of him, Tian Laosì felt tempted.

To tell the truth, all his life he had only ever ridden in flatbed trolleys, green-skinned trains to the city, and the most luxurious ride was a rickshaw in the city once.

He had never really ridden in a four-wheeled sedan before.

"Alright, wait for me then."

After saying that, Tian Laosì used the wall for support and took off his shoes, banging them harshly against the wall.

After thoroughly banging one pair, he took off the other shoe and gave it a good smack as well.

Watching Tian Laosì with such diligence, the look on Gu Chenzi’s face was priceless.

"Laosì, no need, really, cars are meant to be driven; getting them dirty is normal!"

Tian Laosì didn’t care for his response, just chuckled and put his shoes back on, and then asked, "Where should I put my hoe?"

Gu Chenzi got out of the car and helped him stow the hoe in the trunk.

He patted Tian Laosì on the shoulder, "Laosì, get in the car!"

Tian Laosì nodded, "Alright!"

Today, he, Tian Laosì, was going to enjoy himself too!

The car once again hit the gravel road, heading eastward towards the village’s end, the direction of the field ridge.

Tian Laosì sat in the car, watching the scenery outside and couldn’t help but grin, "This car is comfortable, much more so than the bus."

Gu Chenzi smiled genially, pulling out a cigarette from his pocket and handing it over to Tian Laosì beside him.

His tone was sincere.

"Laosì, to be honest, I’m planning to plant corn and wheat on my land now, and I’ve already bought the seeds, but with so much land, I certainly can’t do it alone."

Tian Laosì looked outside while he spoke.

"Of course, you’re right, with over a hundred mu, you’ll wear yourself out trying to do it alone; we need to find at least a dozen people, we can only manage it by working together."

"Finding people is a must, but to be honest, Laosì, I really want you to help me, leading everyone in their work every day. If someone isn’t doing well, you could offer them guidance. For a month’s work, I’ll pay you two hundred yuan. How does that sound?"

Gu Chenzi held the steering wheel, turning his head to look earnestly at Tian Laosì.
