Chapter 1315: Didn't Expect Such a Coincidence

~4 min read 698 words

Knowing his urgency, the other side didn't beat around the bush: "The grain machinery factory in Jin City does produce oil presses, but orders are booked until the month after next. However, my childhood friend said the factory has a prototype unit. Since it's frequently moved for exhibitions, it inevitably suffers bumps and scrapes. If you don't mind, we can offer a discount. He specifically said the machine is definitely fine."

Fu Yan Cheng knew this was his childhood friend's indirect way of giving them a discount, so how could he refuse? "Wait a moment, let me explain the situation to them."

Before he could even ask the village head, the village head laughed, "No problem, no problem. As long as it doesn't affect usage, bumps and scrapes aren't considered a flaw."

Nevertheless, Fu Yan Cheng still wanted to be cautious: "Please thank your childhood friend for me. However, to avoid trouble, I think it's better for them to go see the actual item, confirm there are no issues, and then pay and pick it up."

"Alright, I'll give you the phone number over there. Later, have them contact my childhood friend directly."

"Thanks, brother. When we go over later, call your childhood friend and let's sit down together."

"Deal, then I'll be waiting."

After hanging up, Fu Yan Cheng looked at the village head: "Uncle Village Head, you heard just now. If you want to queue, you'll have to wait. If you need it urgently, go check out that prototype unit. As for how much discount you can get, you'll see that when you go over."

The village head, who often dealt with outsiders, naturally heard the implied meaning. Who wouldn't want to? Naturally, every bit saved was a bit saved. "This matter has really troubled you, and you've incurred such a huge favor. Once the village workshop opens for oil pressing, we'll bring some of our own pressed oil for them to taste."

Fu Yan Cheng didn't take these words seriously, merely smiling and agreeing with a few sounds.

Just as they had settled things on their end, the other village cadres arrived at the village committee.

Before they could ask, the village head recounted the matter. Hearing it, everyone was overjoyed and immediately made the decision to go to Jin City in a few days to avoid complications arising from delay.

Soon the villagers learned that Xiao's son-in-law had helped the village greatly and the oil press issue was resolved. In an instant, many people went to the Xiao family, wanting to draw closer to Xiao Fu.

When Fu Yan Cheng returned, the courtyard had already been cleaned, and the chef from the neighboring village had left.

Xia Qiu was distributing the leftover lunch dishes to the several families who had helped.

Xiao Fu personally went to the two households of widowed elderly people in the village, delivering some of the leftover lunch for them to heat up and eat for dinner.

Yet after this trip, the villagers' enthusiastic attitude completely cleared the lingering gloom from his heart, leaving him in an extremely good mood.

Since they had to return to the city in the afternoon, they didn't stay in the village too late.

Qiu Shaofeng saw them all the way to the bus stop. When the bus arrived, he reluctantly handed the son in his arms to his wife: "Wife, once I finish this busy period, I'll go to the city to see you."

Liu Chuxue, seeing their reluctance, thought to herself: It seems I must hurry to find a job for my brother-in-law. Living apart like this isn't good; after all, they had Junjun before, and it's not good for him to be separated from his father for a long time.

However, none of them noticed the Chen brothers sitting at the very back of the bus.

Chen Weiping stared straight at Liu Chuxue, who was resting against Fu Yan Cheng's shoulder. He hadn't expected such a coincidence.

Chen Weidong, sitting beside him, saw his brother's behavior and quickly nudged him with his elbow: "Pay attention."

Fu Yan Cheng seemed to sense something, turned his head, and looked directly into Chen Weiping's eyes.
