At the sa ti, in Ancheng County, a hundred miles away, two people were also discussing the sa individual.
Wang Tianyu looked at the man sitting opposite him, and suddenly the food in his mouth didn’t taste good anymore.
He knew Qin Minister wouldn’t invite him for a al for no reason.
The matter Qin was seeking him out for was also the matter he had been most concerned about recently.
Wang Tianyu described in detail to Qin Yang the circumstances of his encounter with Gu Peng the other day.
This was no secret; Mr. Lin always hired people at his whim, and those who were close to him were aware of his style.
Moreover, aside from the newcors, didn’t each person who first got to know Mr. Lin have their own story?
They even considered these the basis for conversation.
Qin Yang nodded, "Do you have any information on him? Let take a look."
"No," Wang Tianyu replied with a dazed look.
Qin Yang frowned slightly, "Your boss Mr. Lin has taken a liking to soone; as her assistant, shouldn’t you get hold of the relevant information imdiately?"
Wang Tianyu felt wrongly accused, "Gu Peng was taken away by Mr. Lin the next day. I wanted to inquire more about his situation, but Mr. Lin directly hired him. All I could find out were his basic details: male, 28 years old, Lin City person, no parents or siblings, healthy, no bad habits, unmarried, childless, unemployed, but now he’s employed..."
Knowing that he wouldn’t be able to get any more information from him, Qin Yang waved him off to finish his al alone and rose to leave.
He couldn’t quite describe the feeling.
When Lin Chuxia first brought Wang Tianyu along, he felt uncomfortable.
Wang Tianyu was just a kid, always hanging around his wife with an adoring and reverent gaze, making her happy.
But it was only discomfort, not a sense of crisis.
However, Gu Peng, who was around Lin Chuxia, gave him a sense of crisis from a man’s perspective.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust the relationship between him and Lin Chuxia, just the feeling of having sothing precious to him being looked at by others.
"Minister Qin, there’s sothing I’m not sure if I should say."
Behind him, Wang Tianyu spoke out again.
"Speak."
"Just," Wang Tianyu pursed his lips, "Gu Peng, he was previously imprisoned and released last year."
Qin Yang’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Previously imprisoned?
Qin Yang recalled that after the Spring Festival, Lin Chuxia took a trip to the Northwest.
What did she really go there for?
Besides the places he’d worked, there was also the largest correctional facility there.
Returning to the car, Qin Yang watched the sunlight outside the window; Gu Peng was the na running through his mind.
That night, Lin Chuxia woke up from a dream, but one thing he hadn’t told her; she had called out a person’s na in her sleep.
He thought he had heard wrong.
Until his mother ntioned that na the other day, he clearly rembered that the na Lin Chuxia shouted in her sleep was indeed Gu Peng.
In the five years he and Lin Chuxia had been married, he had known nearly everything about the people and events around her; this na had never appeared before.
Coincidentally, shortly after she shouted that na in her sleep, this person entered their lives.
Is it a coincidence?
..................
When Lin Chuxia returned ho, Qin Yang was already back.
Seeing her carrying bags upon bags as she returned ho, he imdiately greeted her.
Lin Chuxia handed the child to him while asking, "Why did you co back so early? Is everything okay at ho?"
She thought he would stay at ho for a day.
Qin Yang noticed his daughter’s tired deanor; she seed excited upon seeing her dad but quickly lost her energy, indicating she was sleepy.
Cuddling his daughter to sleep, he quietly responded, "Everything’s good. Wang Cheng and Houzi even asked to pass on a ssage to you; the fleet is already running, going to and from the capital these past few days, and the Qin Family Village Vegetable Market’s produce is being shipped out by the fleet."
With their own fleet, the Qin Family Village Vegetable Market’s reputation soared.
Not only did villagers from the neighboring ten villages co to sell their vegetables, but even those from adjacent counties ca by tractor.
The daily managent fees collected by the market were quite substantial.
Lin Chuxia had long been aware of these situations, yet hearing Qin Yang ntion them made her happy.
Her every decision not only brought inco but also enabled her to do practical things, which mattered more than anything else in her life.
Growing up in rural areas herself, Lin Chuxia understood the struggles of the farrs.
Farming isn’t like working in a factory where workers receive a tily monthly salary regardless of the weather; farrs often work harder than those workers by several tis, but their harvested crops might not yield well because of various issues.
Once the market opened, vegetable prices were determined by them, often leaving farrs busy with little reward.
Developing vegetable greenhouses in Qin Family Village and promoting off-season vegetable production were only part of the solution; farrs in other villages only had two seasons to rely upon.
It was evident how difficult it was for farrs to earn a bit of inco.
By developing the Qin Family Village Vegetable Market and transporting their vegetables out, the equilibrium of the market was greatly enhanced.
Preventing farrs from taking unnecessary steps and doing wasted labor ensured their inco to a certain extent.
The significance here was far more fulfilling to Lin Chuxia than establishing another factory.
Eventually, Qi Qi fell asleep in Qin Yang’s arms.
Holding her, he looked at her cute little face; he couldn’t bear to put her on the bed and let her sleep in his arms.
Lin Chuxia teased him, "You keep indulging her. In the future, if she doesn’t sleep without being held, will you hold her at work?"
Qin Yang responded with an indifferent smile, "If the office permits, I’d love to take her there; our daughter will grow up cherished and adored."
This daughter enthusiast.
Ignoring him, Lin Chuxia flipped through the clothes she bought, "Hmm, where did they go?"
Qin Yang asked, "What is it?"
"The clothes I bought for you. I clearly handed them over to Gu Peng—how co they’re missing?"
Nurous bags were spread out before Lin Chuxia, mostly filled with small clothes for her daughter.
"Found them," she finally located Qin Yang’s shirt in one of the small bags, complaining discontentedly, "Why did Gu Peng put your shirt in here? This shirt is cotton-linen, making it prone to wrinkles, and I’ve got to iron it again."
Qin Yang looked at her eyes and brows, "You seem to be getting along well with Gu Peng these past few days."
"It’s alright, overall not bad."
Lin Chuxia continued to take out clothes one by one, arranging and tidying them.
Qin Yang chatted casually, like regular family conversation, "I find Gu Peng quite wooden. Is he suitable for handling things alongside you? During my visit to Qin Family Village today, I ran into Wang Tianyu; I actually think Wang Tianyu is quite good. He’s been by your side for a while, understands the company’s business, and most importantly, his academic qualifications are high—he’s a university graduate, offering a perspective and problem-solving approach that’s different from the average person. You should have more such talented individuals close to you, rather than valuing hard work and diligence."
