Chapter 287: Cooperating with Qinjiacun

The next day, Yang Qing drove a tractor, carrying a load of equipment, and headed for Qinjiacun.

While in the city, Qin Huairu sat quietly in the truck bed, like a lady from a noble family.

After leaving the city, she could no longer restrain her restless heart, climbing from the truck bed to the front seat.

Yang Qing's heart pounded, and he knew this woman had ill intentions.

But since he needed a favor, he couldn't speak too harshly.

He could only speak tactfully.

"What are you doing climbing over? What would people think if they saw you?"

Qin Huairu's big eyes blinked, and she pouted her little mouth in a tsundere way.

"I'm not giving you directions? The back is all dirt road, too bumpy; the front is more comfortable."

Okay, that excuse will do.

He really didn't know the way.

Following Qin Huairu's directions, Yang Qing went on and the surroundings grew more desolate, with fewer people.

Yang Qing felt a little uneasy; although the era boasted good public order and open doors at night, there were still some scoundrels.

He was driving a tractor with so much cargo; he hoped not to run into bandits.

He should have brought more people; he had been overconfident.

"Qin Sis, is this road okay?"

"How come I feel it's a bit desolate?"

The smile at Qin Huairu's mouth grew richer.

"It's fine; our Qinjiacun has no main road. You take the main road to Hongxing Gongshe, then a small path to our village."

"Going this way, you don't have to detour so much."

Yang Qing sensed that Qin Huairu's tone was off, his face a little flushed, and he thought it was from the sun.

After another half hour, everything before his eyes was desolate; not a soul could be seen.

Yang Qing was about to ask again how much farther.

Qin Huairu directly pulled the vehicle to a stop; he didn't know how she knew to cut the engine.

Before Yang Qing could react, Qin Huairu lunged at him.

The sky grew dark and the earth gloomy…

Unrestrained romantic escapades…

One hour later.

………

Yang Qing gave Qin Huairu a stern lesson for her mischief.

After being beaten by Yang Qing for half a day, Qin Huairu was unable to fight back.

Thus Yang Qing still didn't let her go, and he stabbed her with a dagger held in front of him.

The tractor crept along, and Qin Huairu wailed all the way from the beating.

Half an hour later, the battered Qin Huairu returned to the truck bed, daring not to cause trouble again.

The autumn sun was no less warm than spring's, bathing people in a cozy heat.

Just like the mood of the two of them.

Yang Qing had already adopted a "broken pot, broken mentality" attitude, after all he wasn't a good person anyway.

He had begun to accept his own character setting.

He seemed to have a different feeling, that of a conquest experience.

Another hour and a bit later.

They finally arrived at Qinjiacun.

The putt-putt of the tractor quickly drew the attention of a group of youths.

"Quick, look, it's a tractor, a tractor."

"Quickly tell the village head, our village has a tractor."

"Wow, wow, a tractor."

………

A group of small children gathered around.

Qin Huairu stepped out of the truck bed, smiling fiercely.

"Everyone, move aside, don't block the way."

The crowd that had gathered could finally see who was on the vehicle,

"Wow, wow, Sister Huairu has come, Sister Huairu has come."

A girl with her hair in pigtails heard the sound and ran over; seeing the tractor, she was also excited.

She hopped over to greet Qin Huairu.

"Sis."

Qin Huairu saw that it was her cousin Qin Jingru, she waved her hand and said proudly.

"Come on, get on the truck; let's go to the village office."

Upon hearing that, Qin Jingru immediately hopped onto the truck, curiously touching here and there, looking around.

Yang Qing, fearing an accident, cautioned Qin Huairu.

"Qin Sis, don't let others get on; our truck is full of machinery, and if the kids bump into something we won't be able to explain it clearly."

"When we reach the destination, the vehicle will stop and the cargo will be unloaded."

Any way you play is fine.

Qin Huairu had been beaten all the way, now she listens to Yang Qing and immediately chased off the little brats.

All of you step aside; if you want to ride in the car, go to the village office, unload the cargo, and have some fun.

The kids, knowing Qin Huairu had come back from the city, didn't dare act out, and excitedly ran to the village office.

With the kids showing the way, Yang Qing arrived at the village office.

Someone was already waiting at the entrance of the village office.

After Yang Qing stopped the vehicle, someone came forward to meet him right away.

You must be Factory Director Yang, indeed a person of outstanding talent.

Welcome, welcome, you've come to guide the work.

They say Er Da Ye likes to speak in officialese, but actually the villagers love using officialese even more.

Nothing much, just feels high-end.

Yang Qing shook the visitor's hand.

Sorry to disturb, sorry to disturb.

Qin Huairu hurriedly introduced.

This is the village head of our Qinjiacun, Qin Delu.

Village head, this is the Factory Director Yang of the Agricultural Machinery Factory.

The Red Star tractor that shone brightly in this year's disaster relief was produced by Factory Director Yang.

Qin Delu gave a thumbs-up.

Young and accomplished, impressive, impressive.

It's been in the newspapers.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries for a while, Qin Huairu finally spoke.

Village head, why don't we go inside to talk?

Factory Director Yang came, having squeezed time from his busy schedule.

He has to go back today.

Don't delay the bus any further.

Qin Delu also realized his rudeness, mainly because the tractor and its equipment kept him from looking away.

These are meant to be lent to them for use; coincidentally, the village has just harvested a large amount of corn that hasn't been shelled yet.

He really wants to try it.

Yang Qing also saw his longing and said with a smile.

Village Chief Qin, let's sign the contract first.

Then I'll let you try each piece of equipment.

Once you've all learned how to use them, we'll go to the People's Commune to finalize the rest.

Qin Delu hurriedly nodded.

Right, right, yes, that's appropriate.

Factory Director Yang, let's hurry inside.

The contract itself was nothing special; Qin Huairu had already discussed it with them beforehand, and it was signed smoothly.

The main point is that it's free of charge.

Although they said they'd leave today, it's impossible to figure out all that equipment in just one afternoon.

Yang Qing spent an afternoon and an evening before finally finishing the work.

That evening, the village head entertained him at the village office, providing chicken and eggs, quite a spread.

Everyone ate happily.

During this time, Qin Huairu never appeared.

Only after hearing people in the village talk about him did he learn that Qin Huairu's family was just an ordinary member of Qinjiacun.

Moreover, over the years, because of Jia Zhangshi's deadlock, Qin Huairu has rarely returned to her parents' home.

Let alone bringing back any benefits.

It wasn't until the day before yesterday that Qin Huairu returned, and only then did her parents learn that she was working in the city.

Even the news of Jia Dongxu's death was something they only learned then.

This shows how bad the relationship between the two families is.

The old Qin family, being poor and short-sighted, dared not voice any opinions about the Jia family, and could only shut their doors and mutter a few complaints.

But now that Qin Huairu has brought such benefits to the village, the villagers have begun to view the old Qin family differently.

Especially since Qin Huairu knows such a high-ranking official, this connection is very solid.

Moreover, since Qin Huairu was the one who negotiated this, the village head has been much more courteous toward the old Qin family.

This time, the old Qin family has finally established a foothold in the village.
