The strongest peasant city

Chapter 573

Li Xiaogang had no choice but to scratch his hair and said, "In that case, let me tell the truth. In fact, I am a grain merchant, specializing in the business of exporting grain to foreign countries.

Now that the domestic harvest is bumper, food is worthless.But in the world, this food is very expensive, especially this year, the world's major food exporting countries have experienced disasters of varying degrees, food is even more scarce, and prices have soared.

Rice like this can be sold abroad for more than five times the price in China, so I still make money.Don't refuse any more! "

The village woman looked at Li Xiaogang suspiciously and asked, "Is this true? Don't you lie to me?"

Li Xiaogang smiled and stuffed the money back into the hands of the village woman, and said, "Really, really! This is called mutually beneficial cooperation, so you don't have to worry about it anymore! Take the children back and clean up. It's almost here, don't be too hasty when you leave, leave something behind!"

The village woman kept nodding her head gratefully, and said, "Ruirui, why are you still standing there stupidly? Why don't you hurry up and thank brother."

Rui Rui immediately bowed to Li Xiaogang gracefully, and said with a sweet smile, "Thank you, brother!"

Li Xiaogang waved his hand and said: "It's nothing, remember to study hard in the classroom of the university!"

Ruirui replied: "Yes! Ruirui remembered."

Looking at the joyful couple who left as if they were celebrating the New Year, Li Xiaogang once again experienced the joy of helping others.

But at this moment, the old village chief frowned, and asked Li Xiaogang thoughtfully, "Is everything about the food you just said true?"

Li Xiaogang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a faint smile: "It doesn't matter if this matter is true or not? Anyway, Ruirui can continue to study without any worries like other children who have been admitted to university. , as long as I can see such a result, that's enough."

"But this is very important to me and my villagers!"

The old village chief said eagerly.

Li Xiaogang was stunned, looked at the old village chief in confusion, and asked, "What?"

The old village head looked back at the golden rice in the field, and said leisurely: "Look at the rice all over the ground, it is the blood and sweat of the farmers for a year. When it arrives, it cannot be sold or exchanged for cash. Who cares?" Are you in a hurry? Every day I see the villagers squatting on their fields one by one, staring at the ripe and abundant grain in a daze. As the village head, I feel as if I have been twisted into a twist.

Hearing what the old village head said, Li Xiaogang already understood, and said with a wry smile: "Old village head, I'm not a grain merchant. I was really forced to lie to her that I was a grain merchant. Otherwise, why would she want my money?"

After hearing Li Xiaogang's words, the old village chief's face turned pale, which made people feel very sad.

"It turns out that it is like this. I knew that there would be such a good thing in the world, hey!"

Seeing the old village head let out a long sigh, he squatted down a little decadently.

Li Xiaogang also felt particularly uncomfortable.Thinking in his heart, "The people of Iraq should also eat rice?" After thinking for a while, Li Xiaogang said, "Okay, old village chief, you don't have to be sad. I will think of a way, maybe I can help you sell these things. The food is digested."

Li Xiaogang's words were like a dose of stimulant, which made the old village head almost jump up. He grabbed Li Xiaogang's arm excitedly. The old village head shook vigorously and said, "You...you are not talking to me. Are you kidding me? If you can really sell the food for us, then you have saved the lives of the people in our village."

Li Xiaogang frowned and said: "There is no unparalleled road, let me try! It should work."

The old village chief hurriedly said: "Okay, okay! If it can be sold, the price is easy to talk about! Even if it is one cent higher than the country's purchase price, it will be fine!"

Li Xiaogang nodded and said, "Don't worry about this, I won't let our peasant brothers suffer!"

Tears welled up in the eyes of the old village head Xi, and he grabbed Li Xiaogang's hand as if he had grabbed the savior, insisting on dragging Li Xiaogang home to eat.

Firstly, Li Xiaogang couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the old man, and secondly, he also wanted to taste the home-cooked dishes in the southern countryside. Just as he was about to go home with the old village chief, the mobile phone in his pocket rang.

Only Dao Scar knew this number, Li Xiaogang asked directly: "Dao Scar, what happened?"

"Brother Gang, where are you now?" Scar asked with a smile.

Li Xiaogang said lightly: "It doesn't seem to be your business, does it? Stop talking nonsense and tell me, what happened?"

Scar swallowed his saliva, and said gruffly: "Brother Gang, it's like this..." After listening to Scar's narration, Li Xiaogang frowned fiercely, feeling a little disgusted with Guo Qihua's actions in his heart. An intellectual even played blackmail.

Hearing that Li Xiaogang was silent, Scar knew that he was thinking of something, so he kept silent wisely.

After a long while, Li Xiaogang asked quietly: "Have you found out everything? Could it be that those women deliberately set up a trap in order to lure me to show up?"

Dao Scar said firmly: "No! I have sent people to check everything, and it is indeed the truth! Now Director Li can't eat the food he worries about every day, it doesn't seem to be pretending. And Guo Qihua has indeed arrived in the provincial capital, And the relationship with Shi Qiu is very secret!"

Li Xiaogang sighed, the project in the desert must not be stopped, so he had to agree to Guo Qihua's request. Besides, this was for the country after all, not for Guo Qihua alone. Li Xiaogang had the obligation to stand up at this time.

Slowly said: "Go back to your office and wait for me, I will find you right away!"

After speaking, Li Xiaogang closed the line.

Turning around to the old village chief, he said apologetically, "Old village chief, I have something to deal with, and I may have to leave for a few days.

The old village chief said worriedly: "Then...then are you coming back?"

Li Xiaogang smiled and said, "Look at what you've always said. Since I said I would throw away all the food in the hands of the villagers, I will definitely do it. Don't worry, I will be back soon."

The old village chief looked into Li Xiaogang's eyes and said solemnly: "Well, I believe in you! The people in the village and I are waiting for you to come back.

But young man, what's your name? "

Li Xiaogang smiled and said: "My name is Li Xiaogang, you can call me Xiaogang from now on!"

The old village chief nodded and said, "Xiaogang? I remember. My surname is Hu, and my name is Ergui.

Everyone in our entire village has the surname Hu, so you can just call me Old Hu from now on! "

Li Xiaogang smiled slightly and said, "I'll call you Mr. Hu."

The village head waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can call it whatever you want!"

Li Xiaogang nodded and said, "Then Mr. Hu, I'll take my leave first!"

Seeing Li Xiaogang walking like a dragon, disappearing in front of him like flowing clouds and flowing water, the old village head was filled with a mysterious and inexplicable affection for Li Xiaogang.

Just because he helped himself and the villagers?The old village head shook his head, the problem is not that simple.

In Li Xiaogang's body, there is something that comes out from the bones, and it is these things that deeply attract him.

For many days, the old village chief’s problem of not thinking about tea and food was miraculously solved today. The old village chief couldn’t help but hum a little song while walking home go.

Just before he reached the entrance of the village, the old village head found a large group of people walking towards him in a mighty manner. The old village head frowned and said in a loud voice: "Hu Fei, you have a group of people with you!" What are you guys going to do?"

Mr. Hu stared majestically at a burly farmer who was the leader, and asked solemnly.

The big farmer named Hu Fei immediately walked a few steps, came to the side of the old village head, and said eagerly: "What are you doing? Of course, I went to the rich and powerful grain merchant and asked him to take away our grain together." Did you know that he paid three times the price to take the food from Hu Rui’s family, and the food that could only be sold for more than 3000 yuan before was sold for 1 yuan in one fell swoop!”

Hu Fei looked very excited, and when he spoke, he was full of spittle and high spirits.

The old village chief frowned and twisted his neck, avoiding Hu Fei's spittle, and asked with a frown, "Who did you listen to?"

Hu Fei looked very excited, and when he spoke, he was full of spittle and high spirits.

The old village chief frowned and twisted his neck, avoiding Hu Fei's spittle, and asked with a frown, "Who did you listen to?"

"Who told you that? It spread throughout the village. At first, Hu Rui was still worrying about the tuition fees for going to college, but now she doesn't have to worry about it. He has already repaid all the money he borrowed from every family. Just say that she met a nobleman when she went out today!" Hu Fei said excitedly.

The old village chief waved his hand and said, "It is true that someone bought the food from Hu Rui and her family. But they have collected enough food, so they have already left!"

All the villagers were stunned, and Hu Fei looked at the old village chief in disbelief and said, "Leave? Village chief, how could you let him go? He paid such a high price to buy our grain. It was something we didn't even dare to think about before, how could you just let him go away like this for nothing?"

The old village head smiled and said: "Oh, then according to your opinion, if he wants to leave, I have to tie him up and not let him go, right?"

Hu Fei held back his mouth and said, "Anyway, you let him go, it's your fault! Now the food can't be sold, you have to find a way!"

The old village chief obviously understood Hu Fei's temper very well. He gave a wry smile and ignored him. Instead, he said to the villagers: "Folks, don't think about it. Now the grain harvests are bumper everywhere, and the price of grain has dropped. Falling again and again, who would be stupid enough to buy our grain with money three times higher than the market price? They used the name of buying grain to fund Hu Rui's college education. Rather than saying that they are grain merchants, it is better to say that they are Kind people!"

The words of the old village chief immediately calmed the crowd down. Thinking about it carefully, every word of the old village chief's words made sense, and the villagers fell into silence, each one looking sad.
