Reborn in 1965, I can obtain resources just by sweeping the floor.

"Brother Fang has come here this time because he needs your help."

Riding his bike directly to the Materials Bureau, Su Chen easily pushed open Fang Haoyu's office door.

"What kind of talk is that? There's no such thing as asking for favors between brothers. Just say what you need."

"Brother Fang, it's like this, I'd like to meet Director Zhang and see when he's available."

Fang Haoyu was taken aback, but he didn't ask Su Chen what he wanted to see Director Zhang for. He immediately stood up and headed straight upstairs to the director's office.

"Director Zhang is in his office right now. You should go there now. Do you remember Director Zhang's office? It's upstairs, a few rooms on the left."

Fang Haoyu figured Su Chen's meeting with Director Zhang was a private matter, so he didn't follow him up, just in case Su Chen was there and the director was embarrassed to say anything.

"Director Zhang, this is just a small token of my appreciation. It's nothing special, just some wild game that I brought for you to try."

Director Zhang glanced down at the contents of the bag and took it with a broad smile.

"Little brother, what are you doing? I haven't even had a chance to thank you for what you did last time, and you've brought me so many good things. You must come to my house tonight, and I'll have your wife cook some dishes so we can have a good drink together."

Although Su Chen was young, Director Zhang did not look down on him because of his age. Someone who could procure thousands of kilograms of grain and a large amount of pork was definitely not an ordinary person. Whether for his own sake or for the needs of the bureau, Director Zhang always regarded Su Chen as his peer.

"Director Zhang, actually I've come here today to ask you for a favor. Spring plowing is about to begin in the village, and our village only has one ox for plowing, so a lot of land can't be plowed in time. I heard recently that you have a good relationship with the head of the agricultural machinery station, and I'd like to ask you to introduce me to him."

Just now, Director Zhang was wondering what Su Chen could possibly want from him. If it was a small matter, he would help if he could; if it was a big matter, he would cut ties with Su Chen. But now that he heard Su Chen just wanted to see someone from the agricultural machinery station, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, immediately relaxed.

“Young man, you’ve come to the right person. Station Chief Wang and I have been old friends for many years. We were in the same unit back then, and after we were discharged, we both worked in the same county. Last time he saw that I had brought so much wild game, he was quite envious. Especially now that his agricultural machinery station is having a tough time, I’ll give him a call right now and he can come to my house tonight.”

"Thank you, Director. I'll go tell Brother Fang first. I was planning to have dinner at his place tonight."

"Okay, go ahead. We'll go back after I finish this call."

After speaking, Director Zhao picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number.

Once downstairs, Su Chen told Fang Haoyu and then waited at the top of the stairs. Soon after, Director Zhao came downstairs with a big smile on his face.

Director Zhao's home is in the family compound behind the Materials Bureau, just a few minutes' walk away.

When Su Chen arrived at Director Zhao's house, he ran into Zhang Yaoyang and his wife coming out. When Zhang Yaoyang saw Su Chen, a look of embarrassment flashed across his face.

"Where are Brother Zhang and his wife going?"

Seeing the embarrassed look on Zhang Yaoyang's face, Su Chen couldn't help but laugh, wondering how this guy's brain worked.

When Zhang Yaoyang saw so many tickets in Su Chen's hand at the department store, he actually imagined that Su Chen was his father's illegitimate son. After returning, he embellished the story and told it to him.

That evening, when Director Zhao returned home, his wife started making a huge fuss, constantly demanding to know who his illegitimate child was with. The more she talked, the angrier she became, and in the end, she even tried to drag Director Zhao to get a divorce.

Finally, after repeated questioning from a bewildered Director Zhang, Zhang Yaoyang stammered out the whole story.

After hearing Zhang Yaoyang's story, Director Zhang kicked him twice. He had never seen such a terrible person. He should have thrown him into the balloon back then.

Finally, after Director Zhang's earnest explanation, the misunderstanding was resolved. However, the couple immediately teamed up and gave Zhang Yaoyang a loving lecture.

"Uh! It's nothing, we just went for a stroll. Dad, why are you back so early today?"

Looking at his good-for-nothing son, and then at Su Chen, who has such abilities at such a young age, there's simply no comparison. He couldn't help but say something coldly.

"Do I need to ask you for permission to leave work? Stop going out and causing trouble."

After saying that, he ignored Zhang Yaoyang, opened the door, and pulled Su Chen into the house.

"I really don't know if I'm your biological child. I've never seen you treat me that well."

Watching his father's retreating figure as he went inside, Zhang Yaoyang muttered something under his breath.

"You'd better keep quiet, or Dad will punish you again."

His wife tugged at his arm and pulled him away quickly.

Less than half an hour later, Station Chief Wang arrived at Director Zhang's house carrying a net bag.

"Hey Lao Wang, we're like brothers, what's wrong with you? You can come all you want, but why did you bring things? Take them with you later, or I won't let you into my house next time."

"Hehe, these are all worthless trinkets. This must be Brother Su. I've heard Brother Zhao mention you often. Seeing you today, you are indeed a handsome man."

Station Master Wang casually placed the net on the coffee table, turned to look at Su Chen, and then walked over to Su Chen with great enthusiasm.

While the dishes in the kitchen were still cooking, Director Zhang recounted Su Chen's story.

"This is no big problem. Brother Su, actually I also have something I'd like to ask you for help with. You got a batch of grain for the supply bureau a while ago, right? Do you think you could get some for our agricultural machinery station as well? Don't worry, you definitely won't be at a disadvantage in terms of price. Even if it doesn't work out this time, it's okay. I'll definitely send someone to your village."

Upon hearing Station Chief Wang's words, Su Chen's mind immediately began to work. If they were simply given food in exchange for sending a vehicle, wouldn't that seem too cheap? The harder something is to obtain, the more precious it is.

“Station Chief Wang, you may not know the situation in our village. It’s more than 30 miles away from Qinghe Township, and Qinghe Township is dozens of miles away from the county seat. It’s more than 100 miles round trip. We would definitely welcome you to send people to help us cultivate the land, but it takes too much time on the road, and the drivers are working too hard.”

"you……"

"Hahaha! Old Wang, haven't you figured out what my little brother means yet? Don't you have quotas there? Just give them a machine and let them plow the land themselves, and that'll be enough."

Director Zhao quickly understood Su Chen's meaning, chuckled twice, and nudged Station Chief Wang with his elbow.

"Hey, Brother Su, you're really something. But this year's quotas have already been allocated, and the earliest ones will have to wait until next year. How about this, Brother Su, next year, once the quotas come through, I'll arrange to send a machine to your village as soon as possible."

Station Chief Wang seemed to wake from a dream, a troubled look on his face. Only a few tractors came down from above each year, and everyone was watching them closely. Of course, those with connections would be given priority in the allocation.

“In that case, I can’t put Station Chief Wang in a difficult position. However, the living conditions in our village are not very good, so please don’t mind, driver. Also, I’ll go back and ask when the earliest batch of grain will arrive. Don’t worry, Director Wang, I’ll let you know as soon as the grain arrives.”

“Old Wang, I’m not trying to criticize you, but the machine isn’t yours. It doesn’t matter which village you give it to. It’s not like you’re pocketing it. If you ask me, why wait until next year? Do it this year. Changing one quota is a small matter for you. If anyone has any objections, let them bring their grain in exchange.”

“Well… alright, as long as Brother Su can get the grain, I’ll take care of one machine.”

"Thank you, Station Chief Wang. Don't worry, I'll have someone deliver the grain tonight. You can send someone to the yard to receive it first thing tomorrow morning. But this matter must be kept secret. It's only because Director Zhang said that Station Chief Wang is one of our own that I dare to give you the grain."

Little Fox!

This is Station Master Wang's assessment of Su Chen. He originally thought Su Chen was just a greenhorn who could be easily fooled, but he didn't expect him to play Tai Chi with him.

Early the next morning, Su Chen arrived at the agricultural machinery station. At that time, Station Chief Wang was directing several people to move grain. When he saw Su Chen come in, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

Before coming, Su Chen asked Yang Dazhuang to give him a blank certificate. Now he took it out and had Station Chief Wang sign it. A brand new Dongfanghong 55 was driven out of the warehouse.
