However, no one knew Hu Dahai's considerations. Given Hu Xiawen's personality, she would definitely be driven by profit.

They're talking about it now, but in order to make more money, they'll set the price way up, and their off-season vegetables might end up unsold.

Moreover, transporting these off-season vegetables requires far more than one vehicle. Not to mention, Hu Dahai had another suspicion.

He sneered, "Is this truck really yours? When did you become so wealthy?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Xin immediately looked up at Hu Dahai, then, as if realizing something, he immediately lowered his head again.

Hu Xiawen, however, remained unfazed by Hu Dahai's words, stating firmly, "This truck is of course mine; otherwise, how could we have driven it here! Our Ding Xin is quite capable; he made money and bought this truck!"

Hu Guanbao, who was standing to the side listening, nodded in agreement with Hu Xiawen's words. After all, such large trucks were either owned by state-owned enterprises or were only affordable to very wealthy people.

Ordinary people simply cannot afford to buy a large truck.

Hu Dahai remained silent. Regardless of what they said about the car being theirs or not, he would absolutely not allow Hu Xiawen and the others to interfere with his off-season vegetables.

An awkward silence fell over the room once again.

It was at this time.

"grumble."

Then came the sound of screeching brakes from outside the door.

A black car stopped at the door.

The appearance of this car terrified the villagers of Qunyi Brigade.

After all, for them, those who can afford cars are mostly high-ranking officials in the city or super-rich bosses with a lot of money.

Even many factory directors of state-owned enterprises cannot afford to buy a car.

So they all stepped back a few paces, and those with children held their kids tightly, afraid that their children might accidentally scratch someone's car, which they really couldn't afford to pay for.

A well-dressed man got out of the car; it was none other than Huang Renfa.

But as soon as Huang Renfa got out of the car, he saw a large truck next to him.

It looks kind of familiar.

So he went over and circled the truck, quickly recognizing it as one of the vehicles in his fleet. How could it be here?

"How did this car end up here?" Huang Ren asked the villagers who were watching the commotion.

"It was driven here by Hu Dahai's nephew, he's inside." A friendly villager quickly replied.

Huang Renfa frowned, but said nothing, and went to the back of his car.

He took out a bunch of good stuff from the trunk, all high-end canned goods, pastries, supplements and the like, which made the villagers of Qunyi Brigade stare in disbelief.

He was even more puzzled: Why does Hu Dahai keep getting good things delivered to his house? He probably hasn't even finished eating the things that were delivered before, so why is someone delivering more now?

Amidst the expectant gazes of the villagers, Huang Renfa entered Hu Dahai's home.

But as soon as he came in, he heard Hu Xiawen talking about how they bought the car themselves.

And then there's Ding Xin. He recognizes that name. Isn't he one of the people in their team? A while ago, Huang Renfa thought Ding Xin was honest and reliable, so he promoted him a few days ago to be the team leader of a ten-vehicle squad.

I never imagined that this person would be driving around in their own car, swindling and cheating people!

Huang Renfa stormed into Hu Dahai's house. Hu Dahai was sitting right in front of the door. When he saw Huang Renfa, Hu Dahai greeted him politely, "Boss Huang, what brings you here?"

Huang Renfa responded first, "Dahai, I need to take care of something."

As he spoke, he looked at Ding Xin and Hu Xiawen, who were sitting with their backs to him, and said coldly, "Ding Xin, what are you doing bringing my car out here? Is this how you repay my trust?"

Ding Xin hadn't seen who came in yet, and when he heard Huang Renfa's voice just now, it sounded somewhat familiar.

Hearing Huang Renfa's words, he shuddered and hurriedly stood up.

He turned to look at Huang Renfa in disbelief, stammering, "No, boss, no, how did you end up here?"

Even if he racked his brains, he would never have imagined that Huang Renfa would come to Hu Dahai's house, and that he seemed to know Hu Dahai very well.

Just now, his mother, Hu Xiawen, asked him to drive her to Qunyi Brigade. At first, Ding Xin wanted to refuse, but then he thought that Qunyi Brigade was just a rural area, and how could Huang Renfa possibly go to the countryside?

So Ding Xin, who had just become a squad leader and was a little cocky and wanted to show off, agreed.

But I never expected to run into my own boss in person.

"Why am I here? You mean I shouldn't be here ruining your plans? If I weren't here today, my car would be yours from now on?"

Huang Renfa hated the feeling of his subordinates doing things behind his back.

Therefore, his tone was quite unpleasant, and he launched into a barrage of questions at Ding Xin.

Hu Dahai sat to one side eating pastries and watching the show. He knew that Hu Xiawen's family couldn't possibly afford a large truck.

What nonsense they were spouting, claiming they could buy a big truck. Now it seems they were just lying. How dare they talk to me about cooperation? Were they just waiting to make money off me to buy a big truck?

"I, this..." Ding Xin was momentarily stunned by Huang Renfa's questions, because he really hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

He looked to Hu Xiawen beside him for help.

"Hi." Hu Xiawen, thick-skinned as ever, quickly smiled to salvage the situation: "Boss Huang, it's all my fault, all my fault. I was going to the countryside, and my son was worried, so he insisted on driving me here. He even said he'd fill up your gas tank when we get back."

"It's also my fault for being so concerned about saving face. The villagers all said good things about me, and I got a little carried away and agreed. Look at my son, he's so hardworking at his job. Please, please don't blame my son, okay?"

Hu Xiawen naturally knew what was more important. At this point, she wouldn't be foolish enough to sacrifice her son's future for the sake of saving face.

Sure enough, Huang Renfa's expression softened slightly upon hearing Hu Xiawen's explanation.

Actually, he remembered what the villagers had mentioned about Hu Dahai's nephew, which must be Ding Xin. So, to save face for Hu Dahai, he held back and looked at Ding Xin: "I won't blame you for now. Come to my office tomorrow, and I'll have a good talk with you."

However, Hu Xiawen and Ding Xin naturally did not know why Huang Renfa was suddenly so easy to talk to, especially Hu Xiawen, who thought it was his own doing.

She glanced at Ding Xin triumphantly.

Then he said goodbye to Hu Dahai, "Dahai, please think carefully about what we just told you. You have seen Ding Xin's abilities."

As soon as the two left the house, they were immediately pointed at and gossiped about by the villagers:

"Hehe, the Hu family is really something else, actually using the boss's car to show off."

"Yeah, I thought they were really that rich. I didn't expect they were fake."

"Tsk tsk tsk, those who show off die young!"

inside the house.

Huang Renfa placed a pile of gifts on the table.

He smiled at Hu Dahai and said, "Dahai, you really saved my life! Luckily, you let me sell that piece of land!"

As Huang Renfa spoke, he vividly recounted to Hu Dahai the story of Li Ruochun unearthing an ancient tomb at the construction site.

"You have no idea, Li Ruochun's face turned pale that day. After all that fuss, he lost everything, not even his underwear. Hahahaha."

Huang Renfa laughed as he spoke: "Li Ruochun's mockery of me that day was completely returned to me. Moreover, I became the winner and made 20 points for free."

However, Hu Dahai seemed completely unfazed and asked in bewilderment, "You're happy now?"

Huang Renfa's smile vanished instantly.

"No, Da Hai, what do you mean by that?"
