Chapter 1128

~7 min read 1,290 words

When Wang An left the rice and flour, Shi Suo naturally tried to block him, and Shi Suo's wife also tried to stop him.

When Wang An said very boldly that there was a bumper harvest of grain this year, and that all relatives and friends should be given some rice and flour to taste, Shi Suo finally accepted.

Leaving Shi Suo's house, Wang An looked at his watch and felt that at this time, Fang Xiue must have already gone to work, so Wang An drove the tractor toward the county government compound.

To be honest, driving a four-wheeled tractor full of grain everywhere was really inconvenient; mainly because this thing was too damn conspicuous, like a sore thumb.

Arriving at the county government compound, Wang An didn't say a word, just smiled and lit a cigarette for the guard, Old Cao. There was no helping it, if you didn't give this old man a cigarette, he wouldn't do things for you; it was quite troublesome.

Sure enough, after smoking a few puffs, Old Cao said with a smile:

"Young man, are you looking for Wu Dong?"

Wang An immediately nodded and smiled:

"Yeah, could you please help me call him?"

The old man took a few more puffs and said with a smile:

"Hey, alright, I'll go find him for you now."

It had to be said, this old man was actually quite interesting; mainly because his requirements weren't high, one cigarette could make him quite happy.

Wang An waited at the gate for less than 5 minutes before Wu Dong ran out from inside. Seeing Wang An at the gate, Wu Dong was quite happy.

As soon as they met, Wu Dong said with a smile:

"Oh, I've been so busy these days, we haven't gathered for a long time, right?"

Wang An nodded and smiled:

"Yeah, I knew you were busy, so I didn't dare to look for you, hahahaha!"

Wu Dong laughed:

"It'll be soon, in another half a month it'll be basically finished. When we're done, we must gather properly, hahaha!"

After a simple greeting, Wang An said:

"I specially came to deliver rice and flour to you today. There was a bumper harvest this year, and we harvested quite a lot of rice and wheat, so I'm giving you all some to taste, hehehe."

Wu Dong frowned and said:

"You should keep the grain for yourselves. Don't you think about it, can we lack grain to eat? It's not easy for you to harvest some grain in a year; after paying the public grain and sending some to us, how much is left for your family?"

Wang An said with a smile:

"Isn't it a bumper harvest this year? If it were a bad harvest, I wouldn't send it even if you asked, hahaha!"

Wu Dong continued to wave his hand:

"Really don't need it. You aren't issued grain coupons every month, the whole family relies on this little grain for the year. Take it back, Wang Shuai, Liang Zi, and Qiangzi definitely won't want it either."

Pausing, Wu Dong said with a smile:

"If you get some green sheep, yellow sheep, or roe deer, we'll definitely want them, hahahaha... forget about the grain, really, giving us grain is purely redundant."

Seeing that Wu Dong really didn't want it, Wang An tentatively said:

"How about you keep a little? Just taste the flavor? This is newly processed rice and flour, just smelling it before cooking is so fragrant."

Wu Dong said skeptically:

"Is it that mysterious? I eat it every day, and I feel it's just like that."

Wang An said exaggeratedly:

"Then you definitely haven't eaten this kind of new rice. I'm telling you, this thing, starting from the day it's harvested, the fragrance fades day by day; if you keep it for two years, there won't be any fragrance left."

Actually, it's not just rice; most foods are like this. Fresh ones are definitely better than those kept for a long time.

Being told this by Wang An, Wu Dong was clearly moved and said:

"Then how about you leave us some, I'll taste how fragrant this newly harvested rice is."

Wang An said confidently:

"It must be fragrant, so fragrant that you won't even want to eat dishes, you can eat two big bowls of rice alone, hahahaha!"

As he spoke, Wang An wanted to unload the rice, but Wu Dong hurriedly stopped him:

"Wait a moment, I'll drive the car over, carrying it is too tiring."

After Wu Dong finished speaking, he ran into the compound.

Soon, Wu Dong came out driving his big jeep. After Wu Dong got off, Wang An asked:

"It's not far to your house, are you driving to work?"

Wu Dong said helplessly:

"No choice, today you're lucky, I happened to come back to the unit for a meeting, otherwise you wouldn't even see my shadow."

Wang An didn't ask what Wu Dong was busy with, but asked with a smile:

"Your car is quite good, do you guys have a way to get me one? It's getting cold, riding a sidecar is too miserable, freezing cold."

Wu Dong opened the trunk and said with a smile:

"What? You want to buy a car too? This thing is definitely not cheap."

Hearing this, Wang An said arrogantly:

"That's what you say, as if I'm short of money. I'm telling you, Brother Wu, for me, anything is fine as long as it has a price."

Actually, the reason Wang An wanted to buy a car was partly for convenience, and partly because Mu Xueqing was about to give birth.

Wang An didn't want Mu Xueqing to give birth at home, but wanted to take her to the hospital.

Although in this era, the idea of going to the hospital to give birth was very rare, Wang An didn't care about that; mainly, the hospital was safe.

Besides, Mu Xueqing was likely carrying twins; giving birth at home was too dangerous!

If there were any small accidents, forget it.

Hearing this, Wu Dong couldn't help but laugh out loud:

"Oh fuck, when it comes to showing off, it has to be you, Wang An. The way you show off is simply invincible."

Wang An moved the rice off the tractor, and while loading it into Wu Dong's jeep, said with a smile:

"Just tell me if you can handle this small matter or not?"

Liu Haisen suddenly looked left and right, then said in a voice only the two of them could hear:

"A while ago, for the exercise, we went through channels and got a batch of modified GAZ vehicles from the Russians. Now that the exercise is over, they want to sell these vehicles to the local area. If you have any ideas, I'll get you one."

It was called a channel, but in reality, it was smuggling; those who understood, understood. After all, if it went through regular procedures, the Russians wouldn't dare to sell things like cars here at this time.

Hearing this, Wang An's eyes lit up, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Wu Dong say again:

"Because it's through channels, they said new cars are too conspicuous and they're afraid of trouble, so the exterior of this batch of cars isn't great, but the inside is all good, brand new."

Wang An said excitedly:

"No problem, as long as the inside is fine, it's fine. How much for one? You must get me one."

Thanks to "Climbing Wall Swordsman" big brother for the tip, thank you, thank you!

Wish you, big brother, happiness every day, wealth every day, and good luck!
