Jiang Ziyu smiled when he heard his wife's question and explained, "He and his brothers found several grain fields in the mountains. The amount of harvest was very high, and they couldn't finish them. So, they decided to sell the extra."
"As for the price, he let us decide. After cutting the delivery fee, workers' salary, and other expenses from the earnings, he will take 70% from the net inco," he added.
This ti, Lin ifeng was surprised. No matter how they thought about it, the one who benefited from this transaction was them.
In other words, Li Chenmo was actually helping them out. Not only did he send grains to them, he also let them earn money.
Although the risk of selling grains was high, the profit was not low at all. Perhaps they are even able to build up so connections with the governnt people using these grains.
After she considered the pros and cons, she asked, "Husband, do you think this business is possible?"
Jiang Ziyu nodded and replied firmly, "This business is not only possible, we will be able to get in touch with those higher-ups. I heard that the grains sent by the capital have been cut off by half lately, and the supplies sent to the workers were delayed."
"Rather than selling all of the grains to the black market, I'm thinking of selling 50% of the grains to the governnt and selling the rest to the black market. This way, even if they found out about our activity, those people wouldn't be able to arrest us," he added with a cunning smile.
When she heard about her husband's plan, Lin ifeng nodded and said, "Husband, your idea is very good. I will ask our contacts in the state-owned stores and the factories too. Perhaps they want to buy the grains too."
Jiang Ziyu leaned closer to kiss his wife before he said, "Wife, thank you for your hard work."
Blushing from being kissed, Lin ifeng said shyly, "It's still broad daylight. What are you doing?"
Seeing his young wife acting so shy, Jiang Ziyu's heart was being tickled, and he said, "Wife, it has been a few days. Are you still swollen down there?"
The mont she heard this, Lin ifeng blushed so hard that even her neck was turning red. She glared at him and said, "Y-you… how can you ask that?"
Acting like a bandit, Jiang Ziyu smiled and replied, "Wife, why are you being so shy? I'm asking because I'm worried about you. So, are you feeling better already?"
After being stared at for a long while, Lin ifeng finally nodded and replied softly, "It's no longer swollen—"
Before she finished her words, Jiang Ziyu had already carried her horizontally as he walked to their bedroom. As he closed the door with his leg, he said, "Then, let's focus on our important business."
"What important business? You are just like a dog in heat!"
Lin ifeng's protest was blocked by the closed door, and soon after, the sound of rough breathing and soft moans ca from the bedroom.
Fortunately, after they held their wedding, Jiang Ziyu's parents separated the family. So, they didn't have to worry about being heard when doing it in broad daylight.
While Jiang Ziyu and his wife were busy with their important business, another letter arrived in the military barracks.
After resting for more than 22 weeks, Xi Yaoyang finally fully recovered. His shoulder didn't show any problems post-operation. When the doctor declared that his bone had healed, everyone was surprised.
Judging from the degree of his injuries, even if his bone had recovered, he wouldn't be able to return to his peak condition. Most people guessed that he would retire and switch to office work.
Unexpectedly, after he recovered, not only did he not have any problems with his shoulder, he even seed to beco stronger and healthier.
At this mont, he had just finished his military training and was walking to the cafeteria when one of the soldiers greeted him, "Captain Xi, please wait a mont."
Stopping in his tracks, Xi Yaoyang turned and asked, "What's wrong?"
The soldier saluted before handing him an envelope and a big box, saying, "Captain Xi, you received a letter and a package."
Xi Yaoyang took the letter and smiled when he saw the sender. He nodded at the soldier and said, "Thank you."
After he took the big package and the letter, he didn't go to the cafeteria and went to his dormitory room instead. As a captain, he was allocated a single room.
When the soldiers saw him return with a big package, everyone was curious. Over the years, Xi Yaoyang had rarely received any letters or packages. But this year, he had received several packages and letters, which piqued everyone's curiosity.
Those who had a closer relationship with him followed him to his room, and one of them asked, "Captain Xi, who sent you such a big package?"
Placing the box on his desk, Xi Yaoyang replied, "It's from Chenmo."
The mont they heard this, everyone was surprised. It had been a long ti since Li Chenmo retired from the military, and they thought that he had stopped keeping contact with his old friends.
After what happened to him, it must have been hard for him to see his friends continue climbing in the military while he had to return to his hotown to farm.
Feeling curious, one of them asked, "Captain Xi, what is Captain Li sending you?"
Xi Yaoyang was not in a hurry and read the letter first. After he finished reading it, he said, "Chenmo sent so vegetables and fruits he had grown at ho. He also sent so snacks, wine, and dicines made by his wife."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but swallow. Due to the bad weather, the grains and vegetables they grew in the barracks had wilted, and the harvest was bad.
Not to ntion anything else, if they were able to eat so fresh vegetables, it was already counted as a blessing. After the sumr harvest, they could only eat so pickled vegetables at most.
