In the spirit of keeping the wealth within the family, Lin Guoan has actually always been unwilling to follow Tan Yuan's suggestion and build factories and recruit workers in other brigades. But now, it seems that it is no longer feasible to do things according to the old ideas.

What happened last night was so dangerous. If it weren't for the evidence of grain donations, the Huaiyin Brigade might have been completely robbed.

Tan Yuan talked about moving several factories: "We'll keep the dried tofu factory here in our brigade. I think we'll put the canned fish factory in the brigade closest to the water hole. And the spicy noodle factory..."

As long as a share of the money is distributed, the Huaiyin Brigade will still have a share, the problems of these brigades can be solved, and the labor issues will naturally be solved.

There is also the issue of soybean planting, and all these brigades can start planting it.

In fact, when Huaiyin Brigade started producing dried tofu, Tan Yuan suggested to Secretary Qian that all brigades in the commune should increase soybean planting. Secretary Qian also asked the cadres of the commune to mobilize them, but no one took it to heart.

There's not enough food to eat. After paying the annual tax, there's not much left. Why grow soybeans? Can soybeans fill our stomachs?

As for making tofu and the like, that thing can only be made into a dish, not to mention that making tofu requires a lot of manpower.

They are unwilling to plant soybeans and still plant grains. When they are persuaded too hard, they simply refuse to see each other. Secretary Qian has no choice. He can't force everyone to stop planting rice and plant soybeans instead.

At the beginning, many people clamored that the tofu factory would not survive for long, but what about now?

The current situation of the tofu factory does not seem to be unsustainable. Instead, it is getting better and better. The beans grown by our brigade are not enough, so of course we spend money to buy beans from other brigades. As for the brigade that has no beans, they can only be jealous.

I don’t know how many people have lost their minds because of this. In addition, there is a shortage of food now, and the amount of food is getting smaller and smaller, making it difficult for many people in the team to survive. Now is the best time.

Whether it is to let them build factories or grow soybeans, now is the best time.

Tan Yuan thought so and explained it to Lin Guoan. Lin Guoan swallowed his saliva and said, "Then to the north..."

When Xiang Beifang was mentioned, both of them were stunned, as if they had not seen Xiang Beifang since last night.

Since he came to the brigade to serve as the director of the tofu factory, Xiang Beifang lived in the brigade headquarters at first. Later, the factory moved to a new factory building, and Xiang Beifang moved there to live. However, despite such a big commotion last night, no one was seen.

"Could something have happened..." Tan Yuan hesitated. With such a loud noise, it was impossible for her to say that she was asleep and didn't hear it.

Could it be the person who wanted to cause trouble last night?

Since the future development of the tofu factory has been basically decided, there is no point in saying more here. Tan Yuan asked Lin Guoan to find Xiang Beifang. Even if this person is not a good person to her, it is a human life after all.

She herself decided to meet that group of people and see what their purpose was.

"Robbery? Are you kidding fools?"

Although none of them are fat and strong, at least they are not hungry. Hungry people are not like them.

A few people still remained stubborn, turned their heads away and closed their eyes, unwilling to continue to pay attention to Tan Yuan.

Anyway, when it's daybreak, we'll send them to the Public Security Bureau. They'll be locked up for half a month at most, and they'll be heroes again when they come out.

"Being tough? Do you think toughness really works? If it does, then all other punishments are just for show?"

Tan Yuan's eyes were full of cruelty, just like when she put the machete to their necks, which made people feel mysterious.

Impossible... She can't possibly resort to lynching, a lesbian...

Female comrades are timid. Even if they encounter any problems, their first reaction is to send the case to the police for justice, so nothing big can be accomplished.

But soon, their ideas about lesbians completely changed.

"Have you ever heard of the saying 'dripping water wears away a stone'? Given enough time, even a tiny drop of water can wear through a solid rock. But can a drop of water wear through a person's head? I'm really curious."

With that evil smile again, tinged with cruelty, she turned to the militia comrades in the room and asked, "Are you curious?"

"I'm curious. I really want to know. We're used to seeing beasts slashing with knives and bleeding all over the ground. We really want to see how this water kills people. We also want to see whether a person will die after their head is pierced by it, or whether they will live well."

As if they were talking about something interesting, several people burst into laughter: "You guys, go bring in buckets of water and get some strong ropes!"

Several people's pupils trembled. Was this really going to be a test? Or was it going to be a test with just a few of them?

"You...do you still have the law?!"

"This is the New China. The emperor is gone, so what's the point of talking about royal law?"

Tan Yuan looked disdainful and turned her gaze to a man in the corner who hadn't said much. "And this guy, just use that... dogtail grass to tickle the soles of his feet and make him laugh and liven up the atmosphere."

They are obviously the same people, why are other lesbians so gentle, but the one in front of me is a devil?

People are all different, and Tan Yuan didn't have the heart to watch them being tortured. She had too many things to do today.

When there is nothing to do, I feel bored all day long, but once something happens, I am really too busy to handle everything.

"Just stay here peacefully. When you figure things out, tell me and I'll come over. But remember, you only get one chance. If you miss it, you'll never get another."

"Hey...you can't do this...we are the victims of the disaster, members of the brigade..."

The door was closed, but the shouting could still be heard faintly.

Hand them over to the police? How far the police could investigate and what they would say were beyond Tan Yuan's control. She had never intended to hand these people over to the police.

Tan Yuan went back to Grandma Wang's house to change clothes. Grandma Wang and Li Xiu were already waiting at the door, with a little kid standing next to them.

Zhao Xiaoliu spotted Tan Yuan from a distance and hurried over to greet her: "Sister, I saw a bird's nest when I just came down from the mountain. This is for you to eat."

Zhao Xiaoliu placed a few small bird eggs in his palm, still with the residual warmth of his palm.

"Well, you little idiot, you didn't even give it to me when I asked you for it!"
