On the next day, Gao Guoming drove to each village to inform Gao Guoliang about the banquet. Baosheng had to go to the county to buy vegetables. Gao Guozhong could only look at the coal in Shuangmo Village. If he wanted to buy it, he would call a car to pull it.

It doesn't matter if Baosheng earns a little less for coal transportation.

Baosheng drove Gao Yigong to sell vegetables in the county. When he came to the yard of Shuangmo Village, he saw many people pushing carts and queuing up to buy coal, and some people from government agencies invited carts to wait outside.

Gao Guozhong asked the coal buyers to carry the coal to the scale by themselves. The scale here can weigh up to 500 kilograms at a time. Baosheng saw several people passing the scale and picking up all the small pieces of coal that fell around.

"Baosheng is here. I heard that your father was commended by the city. Why are you coming to the county at this time?" Gao Guozhong asked Baosheng and Yi Gong when he saw them arriving.

"My dad won the city's [Desert Control Hero] commendation. He plans to hold a banquet for three days starting today and invite everyone from each village to eat. The volunteers and I came here to buy some dried vegetables, seasonings and meat. Come and see you."

Baosheng Road.

"People who buy coal are anxious now. I told them to close the door and they wouldn't let me leave. I weighed myself here. The troublemakers came this morning, but I didn't say anything and the coal buyers drove them away!" Gao Guozhong said with a smile.

"Second uncle, please be more relaxed when weighing the scales. It seems that the coal here can no longer be sold for more than half. After it is sold out tomorrow, you go home and rest for a day. I will transport the coal back the day after tomorrow. You and my fourth uncle can come over again. My dad may

I can’t even walk away,” Baosheng said.

"It's a lot of trouble to go back and forth. It's only been a day, and I'm here. I can help you when you bring the coal back." Gao Guozhong said.

When Baosheng heard what his second uncle said, he pulled him aside and asked Yi Gong to watch the coal buyer weighing himself in the yard.

"Second uncle, the coal from Shenmu is not easy to buy, and I am not lucky. I bought this coal because of some connections. If the coal business is easy to do, the ex-factory price of Shenmu per ton is 30, and in our Yuyang County, it is 150. Not all

Are people going to transport coal? Even a tractor making two trips a day can make thousands of dollars.

The people who work with me don’t want others to see them. No one can stay in this yard tomorrow night. Some people will come to make trouble today, and some people may come to test. Tomorrow you go back and ask a few helpers in our village. You can also stay here at night.

Be safer." Guarantee said.

Gao Guozhong nodded after hearing this. He had always been curious about how Baosheng could transport Shenmu's coal to Yuyang County. It turned out that he also had a partner, and Baosheng was just one of the participants. The partner didn't want people to know his existence, so

This matter is definitely not simple, and I must not get involved too deeply.

"Baosheng, is it dangerous to sell coal? If it is dangerous, we won't sell the coal. We already make enough money from our greenhouse, so there is no need to take this risk!" Gao Guozhong was afraid that something might happen to Baosheng.

"As long as you do your own thing, there will be no danger. I will go to the police station later and bring something with me so that they can come to our place at night.

Second uncle, if someone makes trouble, your first priority is to protect yourself. My dad will come over the day after tomorrow at most, and the coal selling will be over in about ten days," Baosheng said.

I went out to the store and bought two sticks of Monkey King cigarettes. Baosheng bought melon seeds and peanuts, spending more than 300 yuan and drove to the door of the police station.

The police station saw that Baosheng came by car and did not dare to look down upon him. Baosheng explained his purpose of coming and saw so many things. The other party said that he would go around Shuangmo Village more in the past few days. If Baosheng did not sell coal, many people would

Hence the cold.

After buying things, Baosheng followed his father's instructions and bought gifts for visiting Mayor Yang in the countryside. When he returned home to put down the things he bought, many people from the village came to help. Gao Guoliang set up a high stove in the yard, with a total of six

The stove, the iron pots from the second uncle's and third uncle's houses have been brought over. It's like this in rural areas, and you have to borrow tables and stools to make meals.

It's still early for lunch, and all the people coming home are from the village. Everyone wants to repay the kindness that the Baosheng family has received, so it's okay for the mother and aunts to be at home.

Baosheng drove his father to the countryside. It was just eleven o'clock, and the county government guard put the father and son into the compound without notification. At this time, Yang Xiaowei and other village leaders opened the door and came out.

Baosheng is no longer what he used to be. He sells coal to the people for the winter in Mengjiawan Township at low prices, and poor families are owed coal money. This matter should have been a matter of luck to the township, but the township does not have such economic strength.

Everything will go well for them if they maintain a good relationship with Baosheng. If they offend Baosheng and secretly cause trouble in the villages again like last time, they can't bear it. Now everyone in the village still thinks that the key person in the trouble in the villages two months ago was Baosheng.

"Secretary Zheng, Township Chief Yang, my ability to receive recognition from the city this time is inseparable from the support of your leaders. My son, Baosheng, would like to invite the township leaders and village chiefs at home to express your help. No,

I know if all the leaders have time." Gao Guoliang got out of the car and said with a smile to the village leaders.

Everyone looked at Secretary Zheng and Township Chief Yang. Yang Xiaowei smiled and glanced at Baosheng. Baosheng's visit to the village today was considered a bad sign. If no one from them went today, it would be very disadvantageous for them.

Gao Guoliang received a commendation from the city, and all the village chiefs must be there this time, because they all accepted Baosheng's favor this year.

However, they knew Baosheng's abilities very well. If he wanted to do something in the township, he would discuss it with the village chiefs without the participation of the township government. Things would be very embarrassing. Based on their understanding, Baosheng must have some abilities.

It was such a big deal that they really had to go this time.

"It's village chief Gao, and Baosheng is here too! Baosheng bought a car so quickly, a Chevrolet pickup truck, which we can't buy in western China!" Yang Xiaowei said as if he knew Baosheng and his son very well.

"I'm not an official, so I can't take bribes or get kickbacks. I bought this car with my own hard-earned money.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This time my dad was awarded the city's "Desert Control Hero" commendation. Mayor Yang has been busy back and forth, which is also a hard work. Our family planted greenhouse vegetables this year.

I would like to invite Secretary Zheng and Mayor Yang to taste the vegetables at home. They are all vegetables grown in their own fields. I hope the leaders can come." Baosheng said at this time.

Secretary Zheng smiled at Baosheng but said nothing. He seemed to leave everything to Yang Xiaowei.

"We must go here. Village Chief Gao has brought glory to our township. Even the mayor praised him personally. I just have something to ask you, Baosheng." Yang Xiaowei said easily.

"Okay, I'll drive over at noon the day after tomorrow. My dad also talked about sand control and afforestation when he came home this time. I suddenly had some ideas. I hope to have a chat with Secretary Zheng and Township Mayor Yang then.

If we can turn all of our Mengjiawan Township into an oasis, our Mengjiawan can get out of poverty." Baosheng said this to express his own thoughts, which is the greatest goodwill to the township.

"Secretary Zheng and I have always known that Gao Baosheng from our township is a capable person and has done a lot of good things for Mengjiawan Township. Gaojiawan Township leads the city in sand prevention and afforestation this year, and it is all due to your Baosheng.

I have always wanted to talk to you, Baosheng, but I have never had the chance. If you have any good suggestions tomorrow, as long as they are for the good of our Mengjiawan, Secretary Zheng and I will definitely support you." Yang Xiaowei said loudly.

"Yes, Gao Baosheng owes 50 yuan a ton of coal to the villagers. The county leaders already know it. If you have any good ideas, you can come to us directly. If we can't make the decision, you can pass it on to the county leaders." Zhao

The secretary seemed a little afraid of Baosheng. Hearing that Baosheng was working on sand control and afforestation, he spoke.

"Okay, thank you Secretary Zhao and Township Chief Yang. We won't disturb you for now and will pick you up at 11 o'clock tomorrow." After Baosheng finished speaking, he left with his father.

Gao Guoliang could hear something in the conversation between Baosheng and Yang Xiaowei. He went out of the township government and wanted to ask, but in the end he didn't say anything. How could he not know about Baosheng's hostility to the township? He just thought it was the former deputy mayor Li who gave him

Caused by Baosheng.

Yang Xiaowei's attitude today surprised Baosheng. The other party seemed to be looking forward to big changes in the Mengjiawan sand control and afforestation work. Baosheng knew that these changes would be very difficult and would involve the interests of many people.

"Baosheng, you must speak tactfully tomorrow. Just state your request. Don't interfere with other things. Our goal is to make Mengjiawan Township better and better." Gao Guoliang reminded Baosheng.

"Dad, I know, I am just a businessman, a businessman who loves his country and his hometown. If we can talk, we can talk. If we can't, it doesn't matter. We still have to do the sand prevention and afforestation work in Gaojiawan," Gao Baosheng said.

Gao Guoliang nodded. He knew his son better than his father. He knew the kindness in Baosheng's heart. He did many things for Mengjiawan. However, Baosheng didn't have the respect and fear he should have for the village leaders, and he didn't know that this was a good thing.

Still a bad thing.

When he returned home, Baosheng saw that his fourth uncle had sent the news to various villages in Mengjiawan Township, and Ji Chunyan's family had been picked up by Gao Guoming. There were 12 houses in Gao Guoming's yard, 8 of which had fire walls.

There are people living there. Ji Chunyan's two younger brothers and three younger sisters came with her parents, so they can easily stay at home.

Liu Fenglan, Hu Huihui, and Qi Danhua warmly entertained Ji Chunyan's family and tidied up the room for them to stay in. Ji Chunyan was also busy. She did not treat herself as a guest. This was such a big deal for the Baosheng family.

The whole family is definitely coming.

Lunch was already being served. Baosheng saw that the third sister and third brother-in-law’s family were here. The third brother-in-law’s parents, uncle, brother and others were all here. People from the second aunt and third aunt’s family were also here. Baosheng’s family was in addition to

In Shen Ruobing's room, there are guests in every room, making the house very lively.

"Baosheng, why don't you go to your second sister's house tomorrow? Your second sister hasn't been back for a year. This time the house is so lively that I will take your second sister back to stay for a few days." Liu Fenglan saw that the house was so lively, but she was the only one there.

The second daughter was not at home, so she said to Baosheng.

"Second sister? I have important things to do tomorrow and I can't leave. After lunch, I'll go to the second sister Suide's house!" Baosheng said.

The second sister married her second brother-in-law, who sells grain products, and has less contact with her family. When the second sister goes home, she takes a shuttle bus to Suicheng City and reverses. It is almost evening when she leaves home in the morning, so it is not easy to go home.

In front of others, the second sister is the happiest. The second brother-in-law is a worker in Suide Machinery Factory. The family has no worries about food and clothing. However, Baosheng's family is so poor. The second sister has never helped the family after marrying the second brother-in-law. Dad

I never said anything, but my family members gradually distanced themselves from my second sister.

After dinner, Baosheng drove out. Suide County is about 180 kilometers away from Baosheng's home. Even though the snow on the road has not melted yet, Baosheng drove for three hours to Suicheng County. According to the memory in his mind, Baosheng drove directly to the machinery

In the factory's courtyard, the gatekeeper saw the car driven by Baosheng. He stood upright and saluted Baosheng, and let him in without checking.

At this time in Suide County, anyone who could drive a car like Baosheng's was either an official or powerful person, and ordinary people couldn't afford to offend him. Baosheng parked the car in front of the second sister's building and walked upstairs along the stairs.

This building is a very representative old building of this era. There are briquettes placed everywhere at the entrance of the stairs. There is a stove at the door of every room outside the corridor. There are cooking pots on the stove. A blackened iron pipe connects the stove.

The smoke was sent into the house, then circled around and came out again. When Baosheng went upstairs, he was surrounded by a thick smell of coal smoke.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Arriving at the door of the second sister's house, the chimney of the second sister's house was still smoking, and Baosheng knocked twice on the door.

"Who is it?" asked a voice inside.

"Second sister, it's me, Baosheng!" Baosheng replied.

The door opened, and a woman who looked somewhat similar to Baosheng came out. She was wearing a white sweater and her skin was slightly white. When she saw that it was really Baosheng, she smiled on her face.

"Baosheng, it's really you, why are you here at this time! Come in and sit down, sister will cook for you!" Gao Wenli welcomed Baosheng into the room and was about to cook for Baosheng.

"Stop being busy, second sister! I just came here after eating." Baosheng said.

"What time did you go out in the morning? It's already past three o'clock now, and you still say you're not hungry. Your brother-in-law gave you a pound of bacon yesterday, and your second sister steamed the bacon for you with white rice." Gao Wenli said.

"No need really, second sister! I drove here after lunch. Our dad was commended in the city the day before yesterday and won the medal of [Hero of Desert Control]. The family thought this was a big event, so they wanted to invite relatives and friends

Get together at home.

The eldest sister and the third sister's whole family have already arrived at home. Mom thought of you and asked me to come and see if I have time to go home." Baosheng said.

When Gao Wenli heard what Baosheng said, she stopped when she was about to clean the rice. She looked at Baosheng in surprise.

"Did you drive here? What car did you drive?" Gao Wenli asked.

"Pica." Baosheng said.

"What kind of car is a pickup truck? Brother, you are so good that you can actually drive. But a car costs at least tens of thousands. If you don't have a driver's license, you have to be careful when driving someone else's car. If you make a mistake, it will cost several hundred to repair.

You said our family wants to invite guests to dinner, how much will it cost?" Gao Wenli said.
