Reborn Craftsman

Chapter 712 Borrowing the East Wind!
"It's going well. Patriarch Zhuang took Zhu Menghai to visit the grave early this morning." Sikong Lei replied with a smile.

"That's good." Liu Xing nodded.

As long as everything goes well, he can go back sooner.

"By the way! Where's Senior Lin?" Liu Xing looked around.

"I didn't see him. You didn't see him after you fell asleep last night." Sikong Lei replied casually.

"Should have gone to rest." Liu Xing looked at the time: "Have you eaten breakfast? If not, let's go to the villagers to buy some."

"Okay." Sikong Lei led Liu Xing towards a nearby villager's house.

From a distance, I could smell the aroma of sweet potato steamed rice.

The woman who was busy in the kitchen saw Liu Xing and Si Konglei coming, and rushed out to greet her: "You haven't had breakfast yet! Wait a minute, the sweet potato steamed rice will be ready soon."

"Okay!" Liu Xing casually sat on a low stool beside him.

Sikong Lei stood up and smoked.

After a while, the woman brought two large bowls of steamed rice with sweet potatoes and two eggs on top.

Liu Xing took out 100 yuan and handed it to the woman: "You take this money. I was in a hurry when I came here. I didn't buy candy for the children in the village. If you have time to help buy it, it's my piece." Mind."

The reason why only 100 yuan was given was that the woman would not dare to accept it if it was too much.

However, what Liu Xing did not expect was that the 100 yuan was still too much.

Let the woman be nervous and don't know what to do.

She almost knelt down: "Benefactor, you built a bamboo bridge leading to the outside world for us in Xiangxi, but we didn't give you a penny. Now you come to my place for breakfast today, and you will give me so much money. From now on, my old Zhao family will be drowned by the spittle stars in Xiangxi!"

"I said that this is the money to buy candy for the children, don't you understand what I mean?" Liu Xing hurriedly stepped forward to help the woman, and for a moment he had a headache and didn't know what to say.

"The best toffee in Xiangxi is only three yuan a catty, and those mischievous ghosts can't afford that much." The woman explained.

"The rest is for that skinny girl from last night to study! As long as she is willing, I will pay for her to go to college." Liu Xing put the money in the woman's hand, with seriousness in his eyes.

"Are you talking about Ai Duoduo who gave you tea ears?" The woman hesitated for a moment, then asked.

"Well, it's her." Liu Xing nodded.

"That's kind, I'll take the money for her." The woman didn't know what sad thought, her eyes suddenly turned red, and after collecting the 100 yuan, she ran towards a hut in the west .

Liu Xing didn't pay attention to the woman any more, but picked up the steamed rice with sweet potato in the bowl, and ate it slowly.

"Liu Xing." Si Konglei also picked up his job: "100 yuan is not enough to subsidize a child to go to college. I can see that the woman just now regarded you as a god. Don't let her down!"

"The problem of money is easy to solve." Liu Xing looked up at the surrounding environment of the village: "Don't worry, this time I come to Xiangxi, I will not only solve the economic problems of the villagers, but also solve the problem of children's education."

"It's all the children." After Liu Xing said this, he stopped talking mysteriously, but picked up his rice bowl and continued to eat steamed rice with sweet potatoes.

Sikong Lei gave Liu Xing a blank look, he really wanted to know Liu Xing's specific plan.

But he swallowed the words.

Because if Liu Xing was willing to tell him, he would definitely not be like this.

After eating half of their dry sweet potato porridge, Little Peanut ran over with Qianqian.

But they are not interested in sweet potato porridge, but stare at the Siyue Pipa at the door.

Judging by the golden and plump appearance of the pipa, it should be ripe.

But Liu Xing knew that the pipa peanuts and Qianqian couldn't pick and eat them randomly.

Because it might be the fruit trees used by the villagers in the village to increase their income.

Just about to stop Little Peanut from eating food with Qianqian.

The woman who cooked sweet potato and steamed rice for them appeared in front of him with Ai Duoduo.

Ai Duoduo changed into a red dress today and looked very energetic.

But his skinny appearance remained unchanged.

After she looked at Liu Xing and smiled shyly, she took out a bag of tea ears hidden behind her and put it on a low stool beside her.

"You picked it early in the morning?" Liu Xing opened the bag and was surprised to see that the tea ears were very fresh.

Ai Duoduo didn't answer, but just lowered his head shyly.

The woman on the side explained with a smile: "This child, Duoduo, has a hard life! She lost her parents very early, and the conditions in the village are not good, so no one cares about her. Basically, she can only eat one meal of rice a day. The rest of the breakfast is fed by the game in the village, and it is the season for tea ears to be shipped, so she can only eat tea ears for breakfast every day."

The tea ears in Xiangxi are marketed with dragon and tiger meat, so there is no need to worry about selling them.

But since the phoenix grass disappeared, the dragon and tiger meat also disappeared.

As a result, the tea ears in Xiangxi could not be sold at all, and finally became uninterested.

Otherwise, the people in my village can rely on tea ears for some living expenses.

Now, there is no other use except as a snack for children.

Liu Xing didn't know the inside story, neither did Sikong Lei. He asked the woman, "If you just eat tea ears, will you be full?"

Liu Xing also has the same curiosity.

But he knew the answer must be not enough to eat.

If he could eat enough, Ai Duoduo wouldn't be so thin.

After shaking his head distressedly, he said, "Duoduo, do you want to study?"

"No, I want to go out to work with you. I heard from the patriarch Zhuang that you have opened several large factories. How about I work in your factory? I don't need money, as long as I have enough to eat." Ai Duoduo plucked up his courage and looked towards Liu Xing hesitated for a long time before speaking out what was in his heart.

Liu Xing laughed when he heard the words: "I don't recruit child labor there. Besides, you don't read, and you can't even read. How can you do things well in the factory?"

"But...but I'm already ten years old. Is it too late for this grade?" Ai Duoduo asked, biting his lip.

"It doesn't matter how old you are, as long as you are willing to learn, it is not too late to study at the age of 50." Liu Xing replied softly.

"I understand." Ai Duoduo's eyes lit up.

After glancing at the woman at the side, she said, "But since I'm studying, no one will find something for me to eat. What if I starve to death? I still want to be like my brother!"

"Hahaha..." Liu Xing was amused.

Sikong Lei also laughed: "Silly boy, as long as you study hard, Liu Xing will pay for your living expenses and all other expenses for you. You just need to study hard to repay him."

"No! Now I can't help paying the money." Liu Xing saw Zhu Menghai walking towards his position after Patriarch Zhuang, and suddenly denied Sikong Lei's words.

Sikong Lei was taken aback for a moment, and after seeing Zhu Menghai, he suddenly came to his senses.

This Liu Xing would not want to take advantage of Zhu Menghai's wind of recognizing relatives.

Let Maitek invest in Xiangxi!
If true.

Liu Xing is really a monster.

An evildoer who cares about the people of Xiangxi.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, she saw Lin Wuxie hurried out from the opposite mountain forest, and there were still traces of the wound on her body.

"What's the matter with you?" Sikong Lei hastily greeted him.

"Come with me." Lin Wuxie originally wanted to meet Liu Xing, but after seeing the figures of Mai Tekai, Zhu Menghai and others, she changed her mind and led Sikong Lei towards the corner where no one was around. go.

Liu Xing wanted to follow.

But the patriarch Zhuang stopped him: "Liu Xing, don't leave today. I want to hold a bonfire party in the village to let all the villagers know Zhu Menghai's identity. Then you can't run away."

"I'm afraid it won't work. I have to go back before noon, because I have to study tomorrow!" Liu Xing directly declined.

"Then what should we do?" Patriarch Zhuang looked back at Zhu Menghai.

Obviously, Liu Xing left Zhu Menghai's attention when he participated in the bonfire party.

Liu Xingdao: "I think it's more meaningful to hold the bonfire party later, because there are several things that must be done in the village."

"Oh?" Patriarch Zhuang listened carefully.

Zhu Menghai also showed interest.

Liu Xingdao: "First, this village is no longer liveable. As for the reason, I'm afraid everyone present knows the reason, so we have to move out. With your connections, it should be easy to do."

"Yes." Zhu Menghai did not deny it.

Mai Tekai also felt that Liu Xing was right.

"The second thing." Liu Xing pulled Ai Duoduo in front of him: "There are still many children in the village who can't even read a book. Since you brothers and sisters came here to recognize relatives, shouldn't you find a way to solve it?"

Without waiting for Maitekai to speak, Liu Xing continued: "Don't worry, as a half-Xiangxi native, I won't just talk about it, and I will definitely not be ambiguous when I contribute money and effort."

"But it's not something that can be done in a short while, I can't stay here for a long time!" Maitekai said, spreading his hands.

"If you have money, you only need your sister." Liu Xing smiled.

"But she is the owner of Meng Hai Hotel..." Maite Kai was interrupted by Zhu Menghai before he finished speaking: "Brother, don't say anything, I obey Liu Xing's arrangement, and I am willing Change the backward conditions here."

"Meng Hai..." Maitekai wanted to persuade him, but he remained silent in the end.

Because he knew his sister's mood at this time, if he blocked her, it might backfire.

Of course, the most important thing is that the operation of Meng Hai Hotel is now on the right track, and there is no need for my sister to manage it. As long as the arrangements are made properly, anyone can manage it.

It was quiet at this moment, and everyone looked at Liu Xing.

I hope Liu Xing can explain the plan in his heart in detail.

But Liu Xing didn't bring it up, but looked at the time on the phone and said: "I think we should go back to Jigong Mountain to discuss the specific matters, at least get the consent of Mr. Liu first."

"Helping Xiangxi change its backward conditions, what does this have to do with Mr. Liu?" Maitekai asked incomprehensibly.

"The old man can ask the leaders above to issue approval documents, build a school, and relocate some basic equipment in the village. He needs his approval, and I'm wondering... Sister Meng Hai's ability is so high, is it possible that a new official will come to take office? To be the mayor for the welfare of the people in Xiangxi?" Liu Xing looked at Maitekai teasingly, but the ambition and purpose in the words were beyond words.

After Maitekai realized it, he took a deep breath.

Only then did he know that Liu Xing had already planned everything.

Even if he disagrees, I'm afraid it's impossible.

Zhu Menghai was very happy: "Then what are you waiting for, we will go back to Jigong Mountain."

"Okay! But I have to call my friends first." Liu Xing turned around and walked towards Sikong Lei and Lin Wuxie.

Seeing this, the patriarch Zhuang quickly ordered the villagers around him to prepare souvenirs for Liu Xing to take away. After all, Liu Xing never broke his promise in Xiangxi.

If such a powerful person as Zhu Menghai can be made the mayor of Xiangxi, I am afraid that the people of Xiangxi will be blessed.
