Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Time flies by like a white horse. In the blink of an eye, two days have passed.

In the early morning, the sky was not yet completely bright, still shrouded in a faint darkness. Liu Ping'an, carrying his bag, embarked on a journey with Chang Yan, Li Yuan, and the brothers Dahu and Xiaohu, and quietly left Dongtang Village.

Chen Xiaohu walked and scratched his head, seeming to be confused by the act of leaving without saying goodbye. He asked softly, "Captain, is it really appropriate to leave without saying goodbye to them?" His words revealed a hint of reluctance.

After spending the past few days together, everyone has established a deep relationship. Especially in this simple village, everyone has left a deep impression on each other. Now that we are leaving, we can't help but feel a lot of emotion.

Liu Ping'an stood by the platform, smiling, and explained comfortingly: "We have no choice. If we say goodbye in the usual way, it will definitely cause a warm farewell from the whole village. I just hope that we can leave quietly like a breeze, not causing too much trouble to the villagers, so that they can continue to live in peace."

In fact, what Liu Ping'an was really worried about deep down in his heart was the two lovely little girls. They were very dependent on him, and if he said goodbye to them in person, they would probably be sad and cry. Thinking of this, Liu Ping'an couldn't help but feel pity and would rather choose this way of leaving quietly.

The other team members also nodded in agreement. They knew that they had been with these kind old people for a long time, and they were also afraid to face the scene of parting, because it would definitely touch the softest part of their hearts.

At this point, everyone else had understood it all, but Chen Xiaohu was still confused.

He stood there, the 1.80-meter-tall guy kept scratching his head, looking very confused.

Seeing Chen Xiaohu like this, Liu Pingan smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, Xiaohu! We are buyers now, and we will definitely have the opportunity to come to the Northeast again in the future. Moreover, maybe with the development of technology, it won't take so long to take a train in the future."

Hearing this, Chen Xiaohu smiled naively and expressed his agreement.

At this time, the first bus slowly drove in. Liu Pingan and other team members boarded the bus and drove to the county town.

As the car started, the scenery outside the window began to move slowly, and the outline of Dongtang Village gradually blurred in the morning light.

Arriving at the county, Liu Pingan and other team members from Sijiucheng said goodbye to Li Yuan. Although they had not been together for a long time, they had established a deep friendship and tacit understanding during this time together. As a member of the county, Li Yuan was both a guide and a friend to everyone, and his departure made everyone feel a little reluctant.

"Li Yuan, remember to write to us often and tell us interesting things about the county." Chen Xiaohu patted Li Yuan on the shoulder and said with a smile. Although he was a little confused about leaving without saying goodbye before, he now understands that everyone has their reasons behind their choices.

Li Yuan also responded with a smile: "Don't worry, Xiaohu, I will. You should also take care of yourselves and remember to come back to see me when you come to the Northeast."

After saying that, Li Yuan turned and left.

Liu Ping'an and others continued their journey to their destination.

Liu Pingan and his companions boarded the bus to the provincial capital. This journey was destined to be a tough one. The bus slowly moved along the winding mountain road, and the scenery outside the window kept switching like a slide show. After a long and bumpy ride, they finally arrived at their destination - the bus station.

When they got off the car, everyone felt pain in their hips, as if they had been tortured all day. But they did not complain, because they knew that there was an important task waiting for them to complete in the provincial capital this time.

"Let's go find the section chief and the others first." Liu Ping'an rubbed his butt while calling out to the team members.

So, the group walked through the streets of the provincial capital, looking for the guesthouse they had arranged before. Although the guesthouse was very simple, it had become a spiritual haven for them after a long journey.

"Chief, we are here!" Liu Ping'an knocked on Chief Chen's door, and a familiar and kind voice came from inside: "Come in." Pushing open the door, Chief Chen was sitting at the table with a stack of documents in his hands.

He looked up and saw them coming in, and a smile immediately broke out on his face: "Ping An, you are finally here. Did you have a smooth journey?"

"Everything is going well, Chief." Liu Pingan replied, his voice calm and firm. "We should leave tomorrow, how is this going?" Chief Chen smiled slightly, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes.

"Not bad, our share is not low, and we have successfully completed the task." Section Chief Chen nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand and asked everyone to go to rest. "You guys take a rest first, we will talk more about it during dinner. By the way, Ping An, you stay."

Liu Pingan nodded and signaled the other team members to go and rest first, while he stayed in Section Chief Chen's room. He stood quietly, waiting for the section chief's next instructions.

"Chief, is there anything special?" Liu Ping'an asked, feeling a little curious.

Section Chief Chen put away his smile and became serious. He sighed and said slowly, "Ping An, this mission is successfully completed. I will retire after I return. From now on, the work of the steel mill will be handed over to you."

Liu Ping'an was shocked. Although he had expected this day to come, he still felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders when he heard the section chief say this himself.

"In fact, you should know that purchasing work for the steel mill is not easy, especially in the past few years of drought. Life is difficult. I don't know how many times I have been criticized by my superiors." Section Chief Chen frowned, with helplessness on his face.

Liu Pingan nodded to show his understanding. He was well aware of the pressure and difficulties of procurement work, especially in the case of scarce resources and large market fluctuations, it was not easy to ensure the normal operation of the steel rolling mill. But he also understood that this job was crucial to the development of the factory and someone had to take on this responsibility.

Section Chief Chen sighed and said, "I don't know when the drought will end, but I know you are capable. I hope you can hold on."

After saying this, Section Chief Chen looked at Liu Ping'an with some pity in his eyes.

Liu Pingan wanted to laugh. After all, he had the space in hand, so it was basically impossible for the procurement work to fail. In addition, he knew that the drought would end at the end of the year, so the next work would not be so difficult. But he couldn't say either of these, so he just nodded and agreed.
