Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
On the other end of the phone, He Yuanyuan was also stunned for a long time.
“That, that is impossible…”
He Yuanyuan felt that she had the most right to speak to Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan.
She had known them since they first got together.
It had been so long, and everyone knew what kind of person Lin Yi was.
Although he didn’t say anything, there was no doubting his love for her senior sister.
How could he have changed after just one trip?
However, there was no way to explain the plane tickets.
“Nothing is impossible. Come over here.” Ji Qingyan wiped her tears. “Help me pack my things.”
‘Til be right there.”
After hanging up, He Yuanyuan drove to Jiuzhou Pavilion in less than half an hour.
Originally, He Yuanyuan wanted to ask Gao Zongyuan about this.
However, after thinking about it, he still felt that it was not appropriate, so she rushed over herself.
Seeing Ji Qingyan’s disheveled hair which made her look if she had lost her soul, He Yuanyuan panicked.
“Senior Sister, you…”
After knowing her for so many years, she had never seen her like this.
“I’m fine.”
Ji Qingyan took a deep breath. “I’ve folded everything in the closet. Just put them in the box.”
“Didn’t you say that you would give him another chance? Didn’t he say anything?”
“I’ve been watching TV since I came back yesterday, and then 1 went to sleep.”
“And then, this morning?”
“He went back to Dongsan County.”
“Didn’t he say anything? Didn’t he look for you?”
“No.” Ji Qingyan shook her head. Her eyes were lifeless, and the light in them had disappeared.
“d.a.m.n it, 1 really want to chop him to pieces!” He Yuanyuan couldn’t help but swear, which infuriated Lin Yi to the point where she felt as if she had a menstrual disorder.
“This is my own business. You don’t have to do this.”
She took a deep breath.
“It’s not like we have to get married just because we’re together. This kind of thing is very normal.”
“But there’s no one else like him!” He Yuanyuan scolded.
“He’s really something. I’ll tell Gao Zongyuan to get lost too. I don’t want to be with him anymore!”
“What are you talking about? This is between us. It has nothing to do with Old Gao. Don’t implicate the poor guy.”
“It’s all the same. None of these rich men are any good.”
“Alright, calm down.”
“Call a car for me. We’ll move the stuff.”
“Where do you plan to go? Back to Uncle and Auntie?”
“If I go back like this, they’ll definitely worry about me.”
“Let’s go back to my Yunshui Villa. Fortunately, 1 didn’t sell it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even have a place to go.”
He Yuanyuan quietly wiped her tears. She had known her senior sister for so many years, but she had never seen her like this.
“I’ll contact someone now.”
She took another deep breath, as if she had let go of everything.
“Okay, go ahead.”
About two hours later, Lin Yi drove back to Dongsan County at noon.
“Brother Lin, you’re back.”
In the office, Li Sijin stood up and greeted Lin Yi when she saw him return.
At the same time, Li Qingkai was also in the office.
Lin Yi nodded. “How’s the situation in the county?”
“It’s pretty good.” Li Sijin smiled and said,
“I heard that Brother Li went to the city for a meeting a few days ago and was praised. Hehe…”
“You two weren’t around, and 1 couldn’t help it. I ended up benefiting from this opportunity, so I hope you don’t blame me for this.”
“No big deal,” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“Brother Li, is it time for grain collection now?”
Li Qingkai nodded, “There have been quite a few people coming in these days. We’re currently discussing prices, but I’m not sure how it’s going, though. There’s too much work on my hands, and I haven’t had the time to pay attention to those matters.”
“They must all be in the granary.”
“Yes, there’s someone over there.”
“I’ll go take a look and sell them for a good price.”
“That’s good. Go.”
“Brother Lin, I’ll go with you.”
“Let’s go.”
The two of them left the office together and went for lunch before driving to the granary in Dongsan County.
The grain deposits in Dongsan County were pretty insignificant.
They held 180,000 tons of corn and 87,000 tons of soybeans.
Even a farmer like Lin Yi knew that this was not even enough to fill the gaps between his teeth.
From this, one could see how poor Dongsan County was.
When he was on a business trip in the northeast, Lin Yi understood.
Other people specially drive down to the farmers’ homes to collect grain because of the large quant.i.ty. Even if it was a bit troublesome, it’s not a problem
However, Dongsan County was different.
The output of this county might not be as much as that of a village. Naturally, it had to be collected by the government to be sold.
“There seems to be a lot of people here.”
When the car arrived at the granary, Lin Yi saw dozens of people coming and going. He felt that the situation was not bad.
The more people there were, the more compet.i.tion there would be.
Since they were here, the price of grains would also rise. The people who benefited would naturally also be the commoners.
“Brother Lin, you don’t know the situation.” Li Sijin said.
“The people you saw are from Dongsan County. They’re not grain collectors.”
“People from Dongsan County? Then what are they doing here? Are they so free?”
“They’re indeed very free.” Li Sijin said,
“They all farm for a living, unlike us who have to work every day. Now that the grain has been collected, they have nothing to do. They come here every day to guard it. They will sell it to whoever pays the highest price.”
Looking out of the car window at the villagers chatting and playing chess, Lin Yi understood what Li Sijin meant.
Since they had nothing to do, they might as well stay here.
It was better to tease someone else’s wife here than to face a tigress at home.
“Let’s go down and take a look.”
“Okay”
The two of them got out of the car. Lin Yi was in no hurry to talk about the acquisition. Instead, he looked around.
On the outer walls around the granary were many advertis.e.m.e.nts for grain collection.
One had to rely on their own instinct to distinguish real offers from scams.
The two of them walked around the warehouse. Lin Yi asked,
“Why are they all advertis.e.m.e.nts? Aren’t there any individual collectors?”
“There are some, but the production in our Dongsan County is too small, so we can’t predict when they’ll come. That’s why everyone is waiting here,” Li Sijin sighed and said.
“We can’t compete with the Northeast. The farmers there are the bosses, when they come to our place, their status changes.”
“That’s normal. You have to be optimistic,” Lin Yi patted Li Sijin’s shoulder with a smile. “In this world, many things may seem different, but in the end, the principles are the same. You need to have enough capital to establish yourself. In other words, whoever is impressive has a point.”
“Like the way we refer to a deer as a horse?”
“Smart.” Lin Yi smiled.
“Even if you encounter unfair things in the future, don’t complain because doing so useless. You have to work hard silently and wait for the day when you’re in the limelight to step on them.”
“Then what if 1 work hard and remain inferior to them?”
“Then call me. Brother Lin will help you deal with those people..”
