As long as Li Man stayed in the cowshed, Gu Linxiao had been chopping firewood in the yard, his eyes scanning in the direction of the cowshed from time to time.

Zhuang Qi, who was picking up firewood, had left at some point. He had no time to respond. His mind was filled with questions about why this girl hadn't come out yet and had been talking to Lao Du for so long about what she had to say.

As time passed, Gu Linxiao's jealousy grew stronger, and the ax for chopping firewood became faster.

When Li Man came out of the cattle pen, he saw chopped firewood all over the ground, and the man who chopped the firewood was still wielding an axe.

"Do you want to make a fire? Why are you chopping so much firewood?"

Gu Linxiao was stunned and glanced at the firewood all over the yard. He was also surprised. He didn't expect that he had chopped so much.

But it is absolutely impossible for yourself to admit that you did it out of jealousy, and you would never admit it even to death.

"Ahem, what, I'll chop more, so you can relax. I want this firewood to be used until my next vacation."

Seeing Gu Linxiao holding an ax and blushing like a fool, Li Man couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Stop chopping. The place to put firewood is only so big. There is no place to put so much firewood. If it doesn't get wet in time, it will be all in vain."

After saying that, he squatted down and started to pack. After hearing this, Gu Linxiao hurriedly put down the ax and bent down to collect the firewood.

"I have already said hello to my master. During this period of treatment, Lao Du needs to stay at my master's place. I will trouble you to pack his luggage later and bring the inspection report."

"Leave it to you and I'll rest assured."

After thinking for a while, Li Man finally spoke.

"I just had a chat with Lao Du. He changed his career and eventually joined a factory. Lao Du is bold and careful, and has his own way of doing things. I want him to join me."

After hearing this, Gu Linxiao's hands froze.

"Do you want him to be with you in the black market? In fact, I am not opposed to doing business in the black market, but now the black market is strictly enforced, and he is a soldier. If something happens, the consequences... From what I know, you are involved with the black market. From the beginning, I was always on tenterhooks every day.”

It sounds like doing business, but in fact it's nothing more than speculation. In this day and age, you can make dozens of dollars selling things, but if you get caught, you're just eating peanuts.

"Don't worry. Since I'm dealing with them, I must be careful."

After thinking for a while, he spoke again.

"You should also know that the country is basically in a state of exhaustion, and it will not last forever. I am just preparing for the future. I don't want to wait for the day when the opportunity comes. I have nothing and nothing. I can’t catch him, I’m very optimistic about Lao Du. Instead of watching him doing nothing in the factory, I want to bring the people around me to make money together when the opportunity comes.”

According to my own memory, self-employment was everywhere in [-], and it was even possible to start applying for self-employment certificates at that time.

The policy had already begun to relax before this, and it only took a few years to make a full calculation. You must seize the opportunity, you have to pass the college entrance examination, and you have to make money.

Gu Linxiao listened to Li Man's words. In fact, he knew that she was right, but caring would lead to chaos. After all, it was not open yet, and it was still in the stage of crackdown.

"You can do whatever you want. If you need me, don't be polite. As long as you ask, I will do it."

The originally slightly serious topic made Gu Linxiao's sudden confession seem more ambiguous.

Du Fei followed Li Man out of the bullpen and happened to hear the conversation between the two.

I never expected that Li Manren, who was careful but not young, would actually be involved with the black market at such a young age.

When he heard that Li Man wanted to help him, his heart suddenly warmed up.

Except for the kindness he received from his comrades in the army, he had never received any kindness from strangers. Li Man would think of giving him a hand and truly regarded him as one of his own.

Thinking of this, Du Fei's originally confused eyes became firmer.
