The most unlucky person is the villager at the front of the line.

In previous years, the team leader always led the team, but this year the village chief insisted on walking in the front, and his speed was much faster than before. He didn't know how to wait for them, and kept urging them to hurry up. They were all pushing food and carrying shoulder poles, so how could they catch up with the empty-handed village chief?

Not really, the village chief was holding a flashlight to illuminate the area.

They had just caught up with him when the village chief suddenly stopped, leaving the people in the front with no time to react. The driver almost fell into the ditch and the cart overturned.

The villagers dared to be angry but not to speak out. If they dared to criticize the village chief, they would not have to wait until next spring to go to work. When the grain was distributed this year, the village chief would make things difficult for them. They would have no choice but to get up on their own and work with others to get the grain out of the ditch.

The people behind didn't know what happened, and they cursed and yelled why the people in front suddenly stopped. They almost sprained their waists!

The people in front who knew about the situation quickly winked at them and gestured to them to stop talking, but it was late at night, so far away and with the moonlight behind them, how could they see clearly? So the complaints never stopped.

It was the captain at the back of the team who noticed something was wrong. He asked the villagers to stop talking while he went to see what was going on.

But the village chief Hao in front of him was not so good-tempered. He knew without thinking that it must be that old fox Jiang Dahai who found two more ditches on the road and deliberately took revenge. When he heard the people behind him whispering and didn't know what to do, he immediately exploded.

"You are all fucking dead men. There is a ditch on the road. Why don't you go back to the village and get a shovel to fill it up? What are you just standing here staring at? You can fill the road just by looking at it. Why don't you wait for me to lie down in the middle and fill it for you! Get out of here, get out of here, get back to the village and get a shovel! Are you going to pay the grain or not?"

Hao Daniu's face turned red and his eyes widened with anger.

The villagers were scolded and realized that they could not delay the transportation of grain. They quickly ran to the village to get tools.

The captain of Haojia Village came over and took a look at the situation. Then he thought about what the village chief had done a few days ago and there was nothing he didn't understand.

Shake your head and say nothing.

He had tried to persuade the village chief, but he didn't listen and insisted on digging. Now they are taking revenge.

The team leader passed the village chief to check the condition of the road in Jiangjia Village, and found that it had indeed been filled up. The soil that was filled back was obviously dug out from them.

When he got back, he told the village chief about it.

"Who told the secret?! Otherwise how would Jiang Dahai know it!" He calculated the time and set off, intending to watch the excitement of Jiang Dahai here.

"I don't know about that. Maybe Jiang Dahai sent someone to check it out in advance and found that the road was blocked, so he sent someone to fill it up. And I didn't see any signs of people or cars walking on the road. They may have just returned and haven't set out yet." He walked forward on purpose and didn't see any tire tracks.

"It's okay as long as they are behind us." At worst, he would have someone dig a ditch in Jiangjia Village to delay them for a while.

The captain saw through the village chief's thoughts at a glance and reminded him not to do so, as it would do no good to their village at all. It would be better for them to go to the city to deliver grain as soon as possible.

Village chief Hao thought about it and agreed with the captain's opinion.

When the villagers came back with tools, Village Chief Hao urged them to fill the pit quickly. In fact, he wanted to retaliate and planned to dig the soil on the road in Jiangjia Village, but he felt that it would waste time, so he asked the villagers to use local materials.

This delay lasted nearly an hour. Village Chief Hao urged his villagers to speed up, and from time to time he looked towards the road to Jiangjia Village.

The pits here have been filled, but no one from Jiangjia Village has been seen over there.

Village Chief Hao and the team leader also realized that the people from Jiangjia Village should have left long ago! Otherwise, they wouldn't be there at this time.

The two walked from the fork in the road towards Jiangjia Village, and they saw tire tracks before they had walked fifty meters.

"Damn it, I've been fooled again!" Village Chief Hao was furious, and at the same time he blamed the team leader in his heart for not looking back.

"You haven't eaten yet, hurry up, if you don't leave now we will be the last ones in line this year!!" Village Chief Hao went back and continued to urge the villagers.

If they cannot deliver the grain today, they will have to pull the grain back and wait for the grain station to arrange time to deliver it. There are too many variables during this period. Delivering one day late means one more day of risk. It may rain today if it is said it will rain. If there is a problem with the grain, their year's work will be in vain.

The villagers were afraid of having to go through the trouble again, so they had to speed up and finally finished the work in a hurry.

This is because the people of Jiangjia Village are kind, otherwise we would have to dig two more pits for them.

On the other side, the people of Jiangjia Village were not far from the county town...

The village chief thought that they had left early and the villagers had put in a lot of effort to dig the soil and fill the pit, so he rested for a while on the road and only continued on his way after seeing that everyone had rested enough.

On the road, we did not see other villages rushing along like we did last year, but we arrived at the county town smoothly.

When the group arrived at the entrance of the grain station, the sky was just getting bright.

"Everyone has worked hard this year. Come eat something quickly or take a nap in the car. We still have a few hours to go to the grain station to work."

The village chief also looked tired. In previous years, he could at least get a few hours of sleep, but this time, everyone basically had no rest and set out overnight, which meant they had been working all night. Carrying a shoulder pole and pushing a cart also consumed a lot of physical energy.

So after the village chief finished speaking, the villagers sat on the ground in groups of three or four, leaning against the carts and grain bags and dozing off.

Needless to say, the educated youth also sat on the ground and closed their eyes to rest without caring about their image.

The villagers could rest, but several village leaders did not dare to rest with them and could only rest in shifts. Not only was it to prevent the grain from being stolen, but also to prevent the grain station staff from seeing them lying at the gate when they came to work, which would leave a bad impression and block their grain from passing through. They were ready to call everyone out at any time.

Not long after, other villages came to the end of the team to hand in food.

The head of another village saw that Jiangjia Village was the first to pay grain, so he couldn't help but come to Bai An's house to complain.

"No, Lao Bai, why are you here so early again? We started out an hour earlier than last year, but we're still not as good as you."

This village is the same one they encountered last year, but the village leaders of Jiangjia Village discovered it earlier and sped up to catch up with them. That village is close to the county town and can rest for several more hours than them. Unexpectedly, even though they arrived earlier this year, they still couldn't catch up with Jiangjia Village.

Of course the Bai An family would not tell the reason, they just said that it was a coincidence this year and they wanted the villagers to be able to take a walk around the city before going back, otherwise they would have to make another trip, which would be quite troublesome.

Others will definitely not believe this statement.

Jiangjia Village is far away, so why did they leave so early just to hang out in the city? Who were they trying to fool?

Bai Anjia didn't care whether he believed it or not. Anyway, he was given the reason, and there was nothing he could do if he didn't believe it.
