Countdown to Awakening

Huang Ping wasn't particularly keen on finding a wife for him. Given his current circumstances, he couldn't afford to marry. And yet, his standards were so high, insisting on an 18- or 19-year-old girl like Qin Zixin's cousin... He didn't even consider whether he was worthy of her...

Besides, how could there be so many eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls willing to marry him? They are not all fools. Unless I use that method again...

Huang Ping didn't say it out loud. Adhering to the principle of making money wherever possible, she agreed. She said she would help Old Man Xu find a beautiful girl. After all, who wouldn't want money?

I won't use that method unless it's absolutely necessary.

Qi Yuanyuan stood behind, touching the safety lock in her pocket from time to time.

She remembered the dream she had last time. Wasn't it about Shang Wen? Shang Wen had told her they would definitely meet again... and now she was seeing him.

In this life, they can walk hand in hand.

Judging from Shang Wen's appearance, if she were to wear this, Fang Yu's childhood sweetheart, she must be very rich. She wouldn't have to worry about material problems in the future.

The words I always said before, “If you have money, you must support me” can finally come true...

"Yuanyuan, let's go back. Teacher Qin and the others have probably arrived in town. Let's go back quickly too. It's almost noon. I have to go back to cook." Sun Pandi reminded.

Qi Yuanyuan finally realized what was happening. She gathered her thoughts and the two of them headed back home.

-

town.

After Shang Wen bought the tickets, she walked straight towards them and handed Fang Yu two tickets.

I took the bus here early this morning, starting around 5:00 and arriving here at around 10:00. It'll take another five hours to get back.

Fang Yu looked at the ticket helplessly.

But after a while, the car arrived. Shang Wen asked them to get in first and he would take care of the luggage.

After all, she was a man here. She couldn't let two girls put their luggage there.

After Fang Yu and the other man went up, she was still confused. When did Lin Hao become so gentlemanly? Could this be a trick?

Then, Shang Wen also got in the car.

There weren't many people going to Youcheng today, so there were still many empty seats on the bus. Shang Wen sat down in a random seat.

Fang Yu didn't think much about it, just turned around and looked out the window.

Qin Zixin felt a little sad again. This was similar to the scene when she came. There were also three of them: her, Jiang Wen, and Li Weiming.

It's just that the person is different when he leaves.

Looking at the people coming and going outside the window and the strong rural atmosphere, she couldn't help but feel reluctant to leave.

Fang Yu saw through her worries and comforted her, "Sister, don't worry about it anymore. Won't you have more opportunities when you get to Youcheng? Don't these children have two teachers? You also said in your previous letter that more people will come here to teach in the future. Are you still worried about not being able to teach them well?"

Fang Yu thought, when those children get admitted to universities in Youcheng, will I still be afraid of not being able to see them?

Furthermore, it looked like this place wasn't suitable for Qin Zixin to stay in. Qin Zixin should go to a big city to develop.

She had thought about coming to the village to teach like Qin Zixin before, but things were different now.

Ever since Qin Zixin's letters came back one after another, she changed her mind. She was afraid her life would be threatened. She was afraid that if she came, she would never be able to leave.

She values ​​life more than dreams.

Qin Zixin took out a small plum from the cloth bag. It looked like the students had washed it but not completely clean.

Qin Zixin took one for Fang Yu next to her, and then gave one to Shang Wen.

Fang Yu looked at the red plum in her hand for a while, then put it in her mouth and took a bite.

Sour and sweet. Really freshly picked plums. They tasted different from those that have been sitting around in the city for ages.

Then a new idea came into her mind.

She asked, "Sister, do many families in Tianfu Village grow plums on a large scale?"

Qin Zixin nodded.

Fang Yu became more certain of his thoughts.

Her family's business happened to be a beverage business, and their raw materials were inseparable from fruits and the like. She thought she might as well help the villagers.

It can help them escape poverty while promoting their company's new products. It really kills two birds with one stone.

Seeing her like this, Qin Zixin couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about? You look so happy..."

Fang Yu answered without hesitation, "I'm thinking about how to combine our family's industry with the advantages of Tianfu Village. This will not only develop our business, but also drive the development of Tianfu Village."

Qin Zixin was very relieved after hearing this. As expected, Fang Yu had always been attentive since she was little, and now that she was older, she was even more attentive to family matters.

"Now that you mention it, there are indeed quite a lot of plum trees in Tianfu Village. And they are all unsalable. They can't be sold."

As she spoke, Qin Zixin remembered that she had seen Jiang Wen always give her a lot of plums, all of which could not be sold.

It was a shame to think of this. So many plums and other fruits couldn't be sold. It would be a waste to just leave them in the village. It would be better to just let Fang Yu take them over.

Fang Yu's family business also happened to be short of raw materials, so both parties benefited.

I just don’t know if the people in the village will object.

Will they believe this kind of thing?

Logically speaking, Ma Hui is also the richest person in the village. Although the businesses he does are almost all illegal, he must have channels. Don’t businessmen know other businessmen?

But why didn't he think of this? Or did he simply not want to do it?

Speaking of someone like Ma Hui, asking him to do something is like plucking feathers from a stingy person.

Judging from what has happened in the village over the years, Ma Hui has been almost indifferent and has no regard for the collective interests of the village.

"My uncle is also involved in business. Does he know someone named Ma Hui?" Qin Zixin asked Fang Yu.

Fang Yu thought about it and remembered.

"Him? I heard from my dad that he did things that were not worthy of public display. They couldn't be seen in public at all. Why are you suddenly asking about him?"

She remembered Fang Anmin saying that Ma Hui wasn't a serious businessman and that the things he'd done were enough to warrant a trial. It was just that everyone in the industry knew about it, but there was no evidence.

Therefore, many people avoided cooperating with Ma Hui, fearing that their own families would be implicated.

"That's it."

Only then did Qin Zixin realize that what Ma Hui had done was really something that was not acceptable.

She remembered Ma Hui's constant boasting. She'd also heard that Ma Hui's businesses were all rigged, like fake cigarettes, fake alcohol, and even fake Chao. People simply saw through it without saying anything.

Moreover, those people are afraid of getting into trouble and affecting their own interests. They stay out of the matter.

Although the villagers knew about this, they had no way to punish Ma Hui. They were just ordinary people.

Fang Yu decided to discuss this with Fang Anmin as soon as she got home. Everyone said she wasn't suitable, but she insisted on being the best.
