Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 141 The Worry-Proof Son
Meanwhile, Chang Kun had already arrived at the research institute.
"Xiao Kun is back." Cheng Rongjiang patted Chang Kun on the shoulder. "The young man seems to have gotten even stronger."
He recently met with Chang Dashan, and they both liked each other quite a bit. They're just waiting to find an auspicious day to formally arrange the marriage.
At this moment, Cheng Rongjiang looked at Chang Kun as if he were looking at his son-in-law.
"Uncle Cheng, this is something I brought back from Northeast China for you." Chang Kun took out two pheasants and a sika deer thigh from the sack.
"Good, good, Xiao Kun is so thoughtful." Cheng Rongjiang couldn't stop smiling.
Last night, Cheng Jie brought home a pheasant, and his family praised it after eating it. They were surprised that something smaller than a pheasant could taste so good.
"I'll go get these two for the director." Chang Kun carried the two flying dragons to the director's office.
"Chief, mission accomplished, I'm back."
Director Fang Qingsheng laughed heartily: "Chang Kun is very capable. The person in charge over there sent a telegram praising you to the skies, saying that you completed several months' worth of work in just ten days."
"Just lucky," Chang Kun said modestly, placing the flying dragon in the corner. "Chief, this is a flying dragon I brought back from the Northeast. Try it sometime."
"Flying dragon? That's a real delicacy! Chang Kun, you're so thoughtful." As the director of the animal research institute, Fang Qingsheng was not short of meat, but he was still very happy to be able to eat such a top-quality delicacy as flying dragon.
After reporting his work, Chang Kun returned to his office.
"Xiao Kun, how have you been in Northeast China these past few days?"
Cheng Rongjiang finished advancing the project on venomous snakes and chatted with Chang Kun.
"That's great. They have so many resources over there, unlike us here, where we lack food and clothing."
"Ah! Yes, the Northeast is a land of rice and grain, with vast mountains and forests. The people there are truly blessed!" Cheng Rongjiang exclaimed.
Chang Kun inwardly scoffed, "You haven't seen the Northeast in later generations."
Now, Northeast China is not only a land of rice and grain, but also a major industrial center. Looking back in time, it will be a far cry from what it was before, with a shortage of talent and a sluggish economy.
Before Chang Kun's rebirth, there was a saying that "investment doesn't cross the Shanhaiguan Pass," which is truly regrettable.
While the two were chatting, Yan Feng returned home from the neighborhood office, looking completely lost and distraught.
"Father, I'm back."
"What's wrong? Why are you looking so dejected when you went to ask your second aunt for help?" Yan Luji was a big fat man who kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at his son.
These past few days, a vacancy was discovered at the grain station, so he was confined to his home and kept under house arrest. He was extremely anxious and tried various connections, but to no avail.
The most crucial issue is the 50,000 jin of national grain coupons that were lost at the grain station. Without finding these coupons, no amount of connections will help.
Yan Feng lowered his head, moved his mouth but didn't dare to speak. He learned from his second aunt, Director Wang, that Chang Kun was the legendary detective in Gulou District recently.
This news struck Yan Feng like a bolt from the blue. He never expected to be so unlucky; he had just schemed to get Chang Kun's house, and now he had to ask him for help.
How could a young man as proud as Yan Feng possibly bring himself to speak up?
"Dad, I found out about that detective. I've met him before. He's just... he's just..." Yan Feng secretly glanced at his father as he said this.
"What is it?! You're driving me crazy!!" Upon hearing the news about the detective, Yan Luji, with agility beyond what one would expect from a fat man, rolled over and rushed to Yan Feng, grabbing his son's shoulder and urgently demanding an answer.
"It's just... I really want to offend him..."
Yan Feng spoke softer and softer, glancing guiltily at his father.
"What!" Yan Liji's face instantly twisted, and without asking why, he raised his hand and slapped her across the face.
*Smack!*
Yan Feng was spun around on the spot after being slapped, covering his face and not daring to speak.
At home, my father always had the final say, and there was absolutely no room for him to disobey.
"You son of a bitch!!" Yan Liji paced back and forth angrily.
"I found you a job, and you're stuck at school all day, and you still manage to offend people? You're such a good son! Do you want to get your father killed?!"
He only calmed down after hurling a few angry words at Yan Feng.
"Tell me, how did you offend them? Let's see if there's any way to salvage the situation."
Yan Feng quietly recounted the whole story, and at the end, he even defended himself.
"My second aunt said his family were just farmers who had recently moved to the city, and my aunt checked and there was no problem. Nobody would have thought Chang Kun could have this kind of ability!"
*Smack!*
Another slap.
"Still dare to talk back! Don't you think about it? Without some ability, how could a farmer bring his whole family to the city? How could you get your aunt to help arrange housing?"
"How could I have given birth to such a stupid son? I should really ask his mother if he's even mine! His intelligence is nothing like mine, and his physique is worlds apart from mine!"
Yan Luji patted his fat belly and exclaimed, "Look at my belly, how beautiful it is..."
Seeing his son's timid and hesitant demeanor, Yan Lüji became even angrier. "All you do is cause trouble, you can't even smooth things over! What good are you?!"
"Go find your aunt, tell her to give up the house and return it to Chang Kun, and then have your second aunt ask someone to help."
Seeing Yan Feng standing there dumbfounded, Yan Luji stepped forward and kicked him. "What are you still standing there for? Go and pay respects at your father's grave!"
"Hey, I'm going right now. First, I'll ask my aunt to let me rent the house, and then I'll ask my second aunt to help me find someone..." Yan Feng muttered to himself as he walked out, afraid that he would forget what his father had told him.
"Wait! Go find a few furniture makers. If Chang Kun can really help me get my grain coupons back, then we'll make him a set of furniture. We should make friends with capable people; you should learn from them!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Feng was somewhat reluctant.
We've already given the house to Chang Kun, and we still have to make furniture for him? That's a huge loss!
"Hurry up and go! Pick the best furniture. Your father is at this age, don't think about saving money!" Yan Luji instructed, he was extremely worried about his son, but he was even more worried about entrusting the matter to others.
Upon hearing the words "save money," Yan Feng instantly perked up, his eyes darting around a few times.
Hey... I might be able to sneak a few bucks by helping Chang Kun buy furniture.
Yan Feng, who was initially reluctant, suddenly became happy and hurriedly rushed out.
The burning pain on my face seemed insignificant in comparison.
……
At this time.
With nothing to do at the research institute, Chang Kun rode his bicycle to Gulou Primary School.
I've been away from home these past few days, and Cheng Min has often taken a few young girls out for sightseeing in the city. I should go and thank her.
As I walked to the school gate, I happened to run into the head of the teaching department chatting with the security guard.
"Chang Kun is here? Long time no see."
The head of teaching quickly walked over and shook hands with Chang Kun.
Last time, Chang Kun helped the school catch snakes and shared some with the head of the teaching department. The head of the teaching department sighed several times, saying that it was rare to see someone as generous as Chang Kun.
"Hello, Director, I'm here to see Teacher Cheng about something."
"Ah, I understand, I understand..." The head of the teaching department gave a knowing look. "Teacher Cheng's classes are over for today. Come with me."
The story of Chang Kun betting his bicycle on Cheng Min's sake spread throughout the school, with everyone saying it was a case of acting rashly for the sake of a beautiful woman.
Chang Kun: ...
You don't know anything!
I only asked Cheng Min to express my gratitude.
