Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 700 purchase tractors

"We’ll take turns resting. You buy us sleeper tickets."

"Alright, leave it to me."

The two young ones were even happier. They were considering asking their uncle to buy sleeper tickets, but if Old Yang stepped in, everything would be settled.

To them, Old Yang was a figure of omnipotence. Back when everyone was starving, it was him who brought food to the village, and everyone was grateful to him.

The four of them arrived in the city at seven, and Old Yang drove straight to the train station to buy three sleeper tickets. The train was set to depart at eleven in the morning, so they had plenty of time.

It was already seven-thirty. "Old Yang, you go attend to your business. The three of us will go find someone."

"Alright, take care."

Indeed, Old Yang had a lot to do, the most important being to choose a woman to take home. His wife was pregnant, and Jing Chu, being just a little girl, didn’t know much. A person was needed to be there to care for them.

His first preparation was for food: rice, flour, oil, sugar, meat, eggs, milk powder—nothing could be lacking.

Actually, Old Yang had a considerable amount of money. He hadn’t bought as many houses as Jiang Xinyu, so he had more money at hand than them.

After buying everything, he went to find his assistant; they were all adhering to work schedules now.

After stating his requirements, he went home to wait.

Wei Kaiyun and the others explained to the gatekeeper who they were looking for, and soon a middle-aged man came out. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Chaoyang, Xiang Dong?"

"Secretary Wu, where’s my uncle?"

"He’s waiting for you in the office. Follow me."

Wei Kaiyun carried the bag at the back. He didn’t need to speak here; he understood this. He was merely allowing the most successful person from their village to see him.

However, it was also to ascertain if he had any value they could use in the future.

Wei Kaiyun stayed at the back, saying nothing. Both were assessing and evaluating each other.

The three of them stayed for just fifteen minutes, leaving with introduction letters stamped by the city.

"Master Wei, there’s still plenty of time. Where should we go?"

"Let’s just go wait at the train station. Let’s be cautious this time; we’re carrying too much."

The two young ones had no complaints, as this was all the money from the village.

The three went directly to the waiting room and sat together.

"Master Wei, can we mention the tractor directly when we get there?"

"Yes, last time I was back, their leader told me we could go there anytime."

"I heard it’s difficult to buy a tractor."

"Hmm, production isn’t enough, but I gave the seeder and rotary tiller to the tractor factory, so prioritizing me is still doable."

"Master Wei, do you think it’s possible to make a harvester?"

"Theoretically, yes. You two can give it a try."

Both faces showed eager expressions.

Wei Kaiyun was genuinely grateful to the villagers for being kind to his family, so he was willing to support these young ones.

"Chaoyang, if you have time, you can go to the city bookstore to see if there are any books on mechanics. I’ll reimburse you later."

"No need, Master Wei, I have money."

"If you want to design a harvester, you need to have at least a general idea in your mind. Then find some parts on books before assembling them."

Both nodded.

"Also, after we get to the tractor factory, you can ask the engineers about assembling and repairing tractors. You shouldn’t only know how to drive them but also how to fix them.

You two should be attentive and ask the engineers how to deal with some common minor issues."

"Got it, Master Wei."

The three of them stayed in the waiting hall, attracting the attention of a group of people.

"Where are you from and where are you headed? Show us your introduction letters."

The introduction letters were with Chaoyang, who expressionlessly took them out along with the train tickets.

The group saw the stamps from the village, town, county, and city and said no more.

They also saw the train tickets were for eleven thirty, making it reasonable for them to sit there.

The introduction letters only contained each person’s name and destination; nothing else. This was Li Yungui’s way of simplifying matters, avoiding mentioning Wei Kaiyun’s identity. It saved a lot of trouble.

After the inspection, the three said nothing. The young ones were angry, but they understood the importance and didn’t stir up trouble.

Finally, they waited for the boarding announcement. Chaoyang went first, Wei Kaiyun in the middle, Xiang Dong last.

An hour later, they boarded the train. It was just the three of them in the carriage, making it quite comfortable.

"Master Wei, were there inspections like this last time?"

"No, I didn’t catch up last time. Maybe it’s due to heightened tension. Our documents are complete; no need to worry."

"I’m not worried; just angry. Looking at them, they don’t seem like good people."

"Xiang Dong, some words shouldn’t be said."

"Mm, understood."

"You two rest. I’ll take the upper bunk."

"Master Wei, should we eat now?"

"You two go and eat. Just bring me back a portion; I won’t go out. Also, your Teacher Jiang gave me some fried dough twists. You can try them later."

"Our Teacher Jiang is really nice."

Wei Kaiyun liked hearing this. "You two go eat; don’t be frugal. Buy whatever you want; I’ll cover it." The two kids were sensible; Wei Kaiyun was pleased.

"Master Wei, my dad gave me money."

"Your dad gave you little. I’ll cover the rest. Go buy something delicious. Being out once, don’t wrong yourselves."

This made the two happy, quickly forgetting about earlier unpleasantness.

Wei Kaiyun lay on the upper bunk, amused; youth was indeed wonderful.

At this moment, Old Yang was assessing several women, asking some questions, and finally choosing a woman with no husband at home and a child in the army.

"Fifteen yuan a month, including room and board. No fixed holidays, inform me beforehand if anything comes up. When my wife is due, after next March, no holidays."

"Understood, my son won’t return this year, and I don’t need holidays."

"Alright, pack your things and find me here." Old Yang had his subordinate ride to send Sister-in-law Wu.

"Liu Honglei, do you know about the murder case in the county?"

"News came. The suspect is a woman, but her identity isn’t confirmed."

"Stay focused on this."

"Got it, Brother Yang. When will you return?"

"Not sure. You all behave yourself. Sometimes you might face grievances, but bear with it.

If you encounter difficulties, contact me. Money is not a problem." Old Yang was always generous with his subordinates.

"Brother Yang, Da Ming is getting married."

"I don’t have time to come over. Here’s fifty yuan. Give it to him for me; it’s my token of appreciation."
