CHAPTER 466: CHAPTER 466: A TOUCH OF TSUNDERE

Zhao Guangran and Gong Ruini are worrying about making money, but Zhao Gang is actually pleased.

"So they’ve agreed to give me the stuff on credit?" After so many days without any news, Zhao Gang thought this matter was done with, yet here it was waiting for him, which truly surprised him.

Zhao Gang really couldn’t understand why they would agree to just give him the stuff, making him feel like he was dreaming.

Gong Tao was also puzzled, how did this matter get approved just like that?

If it weren’t for some well-known figures from nearby villages, Gong Tao would have thought they were there to scam them, to watch them make fools of themselves.

As for Cai Meina and her group, it was even more dizzying for them, always feeling like they were dreaming.

Cai Meina covered her mouth and whispered to Zhan Jing, "Even though I made a wish on New Year’s Eve, I didn’t expect it to actually come true."

In her eyes, there’s nothing wrong with it, "I thought that after I bought a house, I’d help my brother buy one too, so it would be convenient for him to marry in the future. He’s grown so much, and when I was his age, I already had Rui Wen."

The parents don’t worry, and as the so-called eldest son Cai Guoqing only writes when he needs money or effort from Cai Meina and her sibling; otherwise, don’t expect any letters from the Cai Family.

Not to mention, Cai Ming is almost 20 years old, but have the Cai Family, starting from Old Man Cai, ever written a letter of concern?

Including the last time going back for a funeral, seeing the old lady of the Cai Family, all she could talk about was how bad the family’s livelihood was, never even mentioning any difficulties Cai Ming might be having or whether he was married.

If they had even slightly mentioned it, Cai Meina would definitely give the Cai Family some money, or national food vouchers; but the Cai Family didn’t even show concern for a daughter like her, so how would they care about a son who hasn’t returned home?

Zhan Jing has been around for years, and although she doesn’t truly see Cai Ming as her own brother, at least she considers many things for Cai Ming, "We should buy a house for Cai Ming, otherwise how can he get married in the future."

"I wonder if the girl Cai Ming likes applied to a university in Beijing." Zhan Jing remembered that before applying, Cai Ming mailed the girl mentioning he was going to study in Beijing, "Did the girl write back later?"

"Of course, she replied, thanking us for sending books to her." Cai Meina doesn’t know how the girl talked to Cai Ming privately, but the letters mailed to her really seemed a bit too polite.

If she hadn’t interacted with the girl before, Cai Meina wouldn’t have thought this much, but since they did interact once or twice, she always felt there was something off, although if pressed to pinpoint what was off, Cai Meina really couldn’t say.

But thinking about how the girl waited for Cai Ming for so many years, there should be no surprises.

The thought made Cai Meina chuckle slightly, wondering if she was worrying too much recently, maybe under too much stress.

While Cai Meina and Zhan Jing are whispering, Gong Tao and Zhao Gang have already reviewed the pile of documents presented. As they leaf through page after page, Gong Tao is shocked, his mouth opening wide.

"Is it really this much?" Gong Tao used to think they would easily move to Beijing this time, originally thinking all four vehicles would be needed, but it turned out less than three were used; although it’s a bit regrettable, as this way a lot of money is lost.

But bringing too many things into Beijing tends to attract attention; no one cares how many family members you have, but seeing several trucks full of stuff is really eye-catching.

Gong Tao suddenly feels the house they rented previously might not be suitable, although it’s big, it’s a bit remote, and what if they encounter thieves?

What if someone thinks the stuff inside is valuable? Gong Tao really feels uneasy and wonders if they should get hunting dogs in the village, as they can guard the house and even help out if they go hunting.

Gong Tao thinks about how they’re moving too much stuff to Beijing this time, even bringing live animals; he really wants to ask those families who moved back home how they managed so much.

After all, they might not even be able to borrow trucks, making him genuinely curious, needing to ask somehow.

Zhao Gang holds the documents, calculating in his mind while Gong Tao’s expression changes constantly, both saying nothing, leaving others around them puzzled.

They are all restless inside, wondering if Zhao Gang might not collect the items at all, as he also thinks it’s too much trouble to take on so much.

Ah, those people, when the items fall into their laps, they are speechless, only wishing to sell them off; but when they have the chance to sell, they start making demands, unhappy with delayed payment, wanting to compare with the Red Flag Brigade.

Yes, if it were them, they’d also prefer cash, but Zhao Gang had no money, and there’s no way to give him cash at all times.

As for comparing with the Red Flag Brigade, there’s no comparison; after all, they treated Zhao Gang well, even agreeing to give Zhao Gang the house he’s currently residing in.

Although Zhao Gang also has to pay, what good can other brigades offer him?

In truth, Zhao Gang owes them nothing, not a dime; it’s actually they who owe the Zhao Gang couple.

As time goes by, their expressions start to look grim. Although they previously discussed whether they could leave something as collateral with Zhao Gang, they don’t dare bring it up now.

If they really annoy Zhao Gang and he refuses to collect, what can they do then?

After all, he’s just helping out, not obliged to, and if word got out, everyone would think they’re being aggressive.

Ultimately, all those little schemes evaporated, and everyone present could only hope Zhao Guangran would take in their items, but Zhao Gang kept staring at the document, not speaking, just his expression changing continuously. What a dilemma, sigh.

Initially, Zhao Gang was waiting for Gong Tao to speak first, but he kept waiting and never heard anything, noticing many things like these village workers exchanging glances, indicating they had some ideas.

Zhao Gang didn’t know what they were planning, but since they had their own calculations, he’d continue to wait; after all, it was they who were anxious. Too many things are sometimes a burden.

Zhao Gang also wondered if the other party could handle such a large amount, sigh; although he could sell to the supply and marketing agency, it really doesn’t make much money, it’s just doing good deeds, but hasn’t he done enough? Now he needs to make money.

Zhao Gang waits until they’re all anxious, knowing that if he didn’t speak now, it would push them to their limits.
