Chapter 664: Chapter 664: Reliable
“Really?” Someone in the crowd exclaimed, “Village chief, why didn’t you mention such a good sales channel before? I’ve been worried sick.”
The village chief continued to smile, “It’s not that I didn’t mention it, you all know that the boss of Xiyang is Lin Chuxia. She was in confinement recently, and I saw that everyone’s peaches just came off the trees, so I wasn’t in a rush to tell her. It’s my fault.”
“How can it be the village chief’s fault? It’s important for Chuxia to be in confinement.”
“Oh, I said it, the village chief does things reliably, we don’t have to worry.”
“Old Qian, why are you still standing there? Soon your peaches can be delivered to the village chief.”
“Ten cents, isn’t the best hairy peach on the market only ten cents?”
……
Sun Bingnan sat on his tractor, listening to people’s discussions, secretly sneering.
Half a day ago, his father was also worried to the point of having gray hair.
Does his dad do things reliably? It’s his son who does things reliably.
Then looking at Lin Yongqiang in the crowd, his face was long, he clenched his fist and said, “Village chief, the peaches this year can be taken by Xiyang, but what about next year? Don’t forget, this year’s peaches have just come off, next year there’s still more coming, solving this year doesn’t solve next year, it’s equally pointless.”
Village Chief Sun gave him a faint glance, coldly humming in his heart, just waiting for this comment.
He then smiled at the villagers, “Regarding this matter, I was originally planning to broadcast it to everyone with a loudspeaker in the afternoon. Since it’s been asked now, I’ll give everyone a heads-up. We’ve already partnered with Xiyang Food Factory. It’s not just this year’s peaches; Xiyang Food Factory will purchase the yellow peaches every year from now on, so we will never have to worry about selling peaches again. Mr. Lin from Xiyang said they hope everyone manages the peach trees well, the more the better, she will take as many as you have.”
The crowd immediately erupted.
The collaboration with Xiyang means every year they have a buyer, removing the anxiety about selling their yellow peaches.
As farmers, they grow grains and vegetables, not worried about growing them, but worried about selling them.
Often after busying themselves for a season, they can’t sell them for a good price.
If Xiyang wants them, then what are they worried about? Just manage the fruit trees well, which is what they excel at.
“Village chief, is it still time for me to plant a few more acres of yellow peach trees now?”
“It’s not too late, it’s never too late to plant.”
Chuxia already shared that once the yellow peach canning production line starts, they want as many yellow peaches as possible.
He has one hundred percent trust in Chuxia’s ability.
Village Chief Sun’s final gaze landed on Lin Yongqiang, “Anything else to say?”
Lin Yongqiang’s face turned red, unable to utter a single word for a long time.
He remained silent, while Village Chief Sun continued, “If you have any opinions on me as a village cadre, you can openly bring them up. If you have the skills to sit in the village chief’s position, I’ll think more of you. Unable to do proper work, just stirring up discontent among the people behind their backs, don’t blame me for not showing leniency.”
Now Lin Yongqiang’s complexion not only turned red, but also alternated between blue and purple, unable to stand another moment, he turned and walked home.
Village Chief Sun coldly hummed at his back, then turned to the crowd, “Disperse, go home and eat. If anyone’s peaches are ripe, start picking them in the next few days, don’t let the fruit ripen too much, making it difficult to transport.”
“Got it, village chief, we’re going to pick now.”
“Village chief, we’ll follow your lead, wherever you say go, we’ll go.”
“Old Qian, why are you still standing around? I remember your fruit trees bear a lot of fruit, hurry and pick them, picked peaches mean money.”
“Exactly, Old Qian, better keep an eye on your plot, guard against any peach thieves.”
Old Qian no longer showed any worry, smiling with wrinkled face, “Don’t worry, my Shuanzi is guarding in the field.”
Everyone left, Village Chief Sun waved his big hand, telling his son to drive home.
That spirited look made him seem younger by years.
…………..
Lin Yongqiang hurried home, feeling more and more unsatisfied as he thought on the way.
The Sun father and son claimed they went to the city today, but who can they find in the city other than Lin Chuxia?
But clearly Lin Chuxia is one of the Lin Family.
Not a single benefit was gained by the Lin Family, instead the Sun Family gained money and favor.
If Lin Chuxia would just help his second uncle a little, wouldn’t need to suffer Sun Jian Country’s indignity, maybe the village chief position would really be his, Lin Yongqiang’s.
He was thinking this when someone approached him.
It was Lin Guangshan’s wife, Chuxia’s mother.
Mother Lin saw Lin Yongqiang and greeted him with a smile, “Second uncle, I was just about to come find you, why don’t you come over to our place and sit for a while.”
Lin Yongqiang definitely wasn’t intending to sit at their place now, everyone knows the conflict between Lin Chuxia and that family.
This family, acting like decent people? When seeing someone’s rich biological mother, they pushed their own child out to recognize her.
Now, who in the village doesn’t talk behind their backs?
“What do you want to talk to me?”
Mother Lin looked around, “This isn’t the place to talk, come over, I cooked a few dishes, you and Guangshan can have a drink.”
In the past, even if he didn’t want to be involved with this family, considering her enthusiasm, Lin Yongqiang might have gone.
But today he was insulted, he had no intention of showing face to Mother Lin.
“If you have something to say, say it directly, otherwise I’m going home for dinner, we have food at home.”
Mother Lin was not pleased with his tone, but she had to swallow it as she needed help, still smiling she said, “It’s like this, Jiayi’s been telling me she misses her child lately. The girl was upset with Guangyuan back then, that’s why she divorced. Now that some time has passed, her anger has cooled, after all, the child is her own flesh and blood, how could she leave the child with a stepmother? Guangyuan also came looking for Jiayi recently, I can see the two kids still have feelings, so why not just fulfill them. I’d like to ask you to go to Xiaoqingshan Village.”
She wants to remarry?
“Sister-in-law, you can bring this up, but I have no face to mention it to the Li Family. Why Jiayi divorced in the first place? Daqing Mountain Village and Xiaoqingshan Village are so close, the Li Family wouldn’t have been unaware. How can they just remarry now? Sister-in-law, you better find someone else, I can’t go.”
Going to the Li Family now would be asking for humiliation.
Mother Lin understood, but what else can she do?
A divorced daughter living at home is problematic, finding someone new isn’t easy.
Matchmakers have come around, suggesting old bachelors.
One of them was even older than her, infuriating her to the point of chasing the matchmaker out. The matchmaker even accused her of being insensible, saying Jiayi would be lucky just to find a husband given her circumstances.
She knows Jiayi’s reputation has been ruined, but no matter how bad, she wouldn’t marry off to an old bachelor.
Li Guangyuan had previously visited looking to remarry Jiayi, so why not just remarry?
After all, they do have a child between them.
