Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 174 Change your mind
Am I fat?

"You're not fat? My pigs don't grow as fast as you! What have you been eating?!"

Accountant Xu replied with disdain, "What's the use of asking this? Would I feed the pigs what I eat?"

"Who said it was going to be fed to pigs!"

Didn't you ask me what I wanted to eat?

The conversation then veered off course, leaving Cao Ping bewildered. He couldn't keep up with the way these older folks jumped around in their thinking.

The three people, each carrying their luggage, prepared to return to the three islands.

"Why are you buying all this stuff? You're wasting money again!"

Uncle Cao's heartfelt complaint.

"These were all bought by Shi Xia, and they were all bought for the people in our village."

"Shi Xia bought it? That's great. It has to be this child. She always thinks about home even when she's out."

Accountant Xu rolled her eyes and said, "Of course Shi Xia is good!"

Cao Ping, who finally caught up with the conversation, flashed his bright white teeth and said, "Shi Xia is the best!"

Three brainless fans of Shi Xia started praising her to the skies, even though the original owner of this body wasn't even there.

At this moment, Shi Xia was sitting on a donkey cart, eating sunflower seeds, and slowly arrived at a commune.

This is one of the trial planting sites.

The village was relatively isolated, and neither the village chief nor the villagers were very welcoming of their arrival, even though they were brought by the commune leaders. They were all impatient and just going through the motions.

When Old Man Lin saw this, his heart sank.

No amount of guidance will help if the planters don't take it seriously.

In any case, we can't just leave now that we've come. This place was chosen by Old Man Lin and others after they investigated and analyzed information such as the soil. It's a place with good mountains and water.

That night, because the village was poor and the accommodations were limited, the group was separated and stayed at the homes of the villagers.

Old Lin often went to the countryside and had some understanding of many sordid things there. He didn't dare let his team members be scattered, so he arranged them into groups of three, with one male comrade in each group, as a kind of guarantee.

However, there weren't enough people, so Shi Xia volunteered and raised her hand.

"It's alright, Comrade Yin and I can stay at the village chief's house."

Old Man Lin, considering Shi Xia's strength, agreed.

When Yin Chengrong heard that Shi Xia was with him, his head started to ache.

On this train journey, Shi Xia was incredibly difficult, causing Yin Chengrong to lose a large clump of hair.

She calls for her uncle when eating, complains that the water is too hot, says the upper bunk is uncomfortable, or that the lower bunk is too crowded. In short, she always finds a reason to complain.

But this guy was shameless. He smiled and called Yin "Uncle Yin," and blatantly asked, "Uncle Yin, you're not trying to harm me, are you?"

Who would dare to respond to that?
Shi Xia is clearly fearless, having nothing to lose, and her antics are driving Yin Chengrong to the brink of a heart attack.

With the arrangements made, the village chief reluctantly divided the people into two groups: one room for the men and one room for the women.

The village chief's family also has a baby who is less than a month old, his first grandson, whom they cherish very much and have his own room.

That night passed rather uncomfortably.

The next day, Old Man Lin still went to work with great enthusiasm, but he returned home in a huff that noon.

As soon as he opens his mouth to talk about growing vegetables, the villagers opposite him say that anyone can grow vegetables, and that he doesn't need someone to teach him.

Upon hearing about water cultivation, they all said it was impossible. No matter what Old Man Lin said, this group of people just wouldn't cooperate, and even when they did, it was very perfunctory.

This job is simply unbearable.

Yin Chengrong wanted to step forward and solve the problem, but after he put on his official airs and said a few words, a handful of cow dung flew towards him.

Yin Chengrong gave up completely; what a bunch of troublemakers!
With work stalled and everyone worried, Shi Xia went to find Old Man Lin.

"Actually, it's not necessary to look to the village. They stick together and can't find people who are genuinely interested in planting, so it's difficult for the project to get off the ground."

"There are many unemployed people in the city. The best thing about our hydroponics is that it can be grown anywhere. Why worry about finding land?"

“If every household in the city grows it, and you select a group of people with planting experience, you can ask the higher authorities for a piece of land and set up a separate hydroponic vegetable base, wouldn’t that be great?”

Shi Xia's words opened a new door for Old Man Lin.

"That's right! How come I didn't think of that!"

"I'm just a little smart, you don't need to praise me like that." Old Man Lin: Did I just praise you?
Old Man Lin immediately decided to leave and go to the city to find an organization to cooperate with.

The group began packing their things to leave, taking with them large bags and small packages, and all sorts of equipment.

I had barely walked a hundred meters out of the village when I was caught up by villagers carrying hoes and shovels and was instantly surrounded.

"Don't move! Hand over the child!"

"Where is my child? Give me back my child!"

"It must be in their luggage. What kind of so-called experts are they? They're all liars!"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go!"

A group of people acted without hesitation.

Shi Xia dodged and hid behind Yin Chengrong.

"Uncle Yin, you have to protect me!"

Yin Chengrong was pushed out by Shi Xia. He didn't know how to fight, and the villagers were too fierce. They didn't give them a moment to explain and started robbing him. He was forced to fight back.

"No, those are our instruments, put them down!"

"It's too expensive! Let's talk this out!"

No matter how they shouted, the villagers wouldn't listen. Their village chief's one-month-old baby was missing, and it must have been taken by these outsiders.

Amidst the commotion, Yin Chengrong was hit several times.

Shi Xia remained nimbly hidden behind him, never managing to hit him once.

The others were alright, because the villagers were only interested in stealing luggage and finding the children.

In his panic, Old Man Lin lost his balance and was about to fall headfirst.

Shi Xia moved.

No one saw clearly how she got there. All they saw was that after catching Old Man Lin, she snatched a shovel with one hand, kicked off the shovel head with one foot, leaving only a stick in her hand.

"Please stand still and wait a moment."

Shi Xia charged into the crowd with a stick, not hitting anyone, but simply sending them flying.

With each swing of the stick, Shi Xia threw someone out.

In less than three minutes, the world fell silent.

Yin Chengrong was so angry he was shaking uncontrollably.

"Shi Xia, if you're so capable, why didn't you make a move sooner!"

Shi Xia innocently stood the stick upright behind her.

"You didn't let me go up either."

Shi Xia turned to look at the village chief across from her.

"We didn't steal your child."

As she spoke, Shi Xia opened all her luggage to show the other person.

"How could that be? What about my eldest grandson?!"

The people on the other side panicked, and just when everyone was at a loss for what to do, more people came from behind.

"Honey, hurry up!"

"The child was carried away by a pig!"

"The pig ran away!"

Each of the three sentences is packed with information, one more so than the last.

"brute!"

The villagers stirred again. The village chief, for reasons unknown, looked at Shi Xia and asked, "Please, help us!"

"go!"

Shi Xia did not refuse and followed the villagers to chase the pig.

Old Man Lin was getting anxious and said to the young men, "You pack your things, I'll go check on things!"

Old Man Lin and Yin Chengrong both caught up with them.
