Chapter 1059 Troubled Times
Looking at Hu Zi, "This fat is what they took out to sell, is there nothing else?"
Hu Zi said, "No more. I bought some from various places and also from farmers. They are all like this."
Zhou Guo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's right. It's not surprising that they can get the raw materials, but the method of making compost is not so easy to get. This thing is very complicated, and the people below don't know the specific composting process at all. This shows that the traitor is not among us."
After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
When this incident came out, everyone was actually feeling uneasy, for fear that they would be suspected. After all, everyone here had more or less participated in composting.
Zhou Guo said to Hu Zi: "You need to find out where the flaw is as soon as possible. Our family business is so big and we have so many things. The longer the traitor stays in our company, the greater the loss will be."
Hu Zi said seriously: "Master, rest assured, I have already asked someone to investigate."
She nodded, looked at the people below and said, "This is a time of trouble. Everyone should stay calm and don't lose their composure. It will remain the same as before. This difficulty will soon pass. Don't let others take advantage of you."
"Yes," everyone answered, although they were a little puzzled as to how such a small matter could have become such a turbulent time.
When we were so short of money before, we didn’t say it was a time of trouble.
Everyone talked for a while about what to do next. Each shop still sold grains and mountain products, followed by fruits, wild berries, and apricots. Thanks to the abundance of money in recent years, each village had planted a lot of these fruit trees.
I see that one batch after another is about to be sold.
There are no extra shops for these fruits, so they can only be sold on stalls, which requires a lot of effort on the part of the shop owners.
The wheat seedlings have been planted on the farm, and spring planting has been completed. The next step is management.
There can be no mistakes in this regard.
This year is the second year of growing crops on the salty and bitter land. Whether these lands can produce high crops depends on how much the harvest this year is different from last year.
The shopkeepers and village heads should all think that they have reached this position based on their own abilities. As long as nothing unexpected happens, this is a trivial matter for them and is not a problem at all.
By the time they had almost finished discussing the matter, the third watch drum had already struck.
Zhou Guo said, "It's getting late. Let's all go to bed. You don't have to come and say goodbye to me when you leave tomorrow."
After everyone had left, Hu Zi had not left yet.
Zhou Guo said to him, "You can go down too."
Hu Zi thought about it and asked, "Master, has something happened? Why did the Wang family take advantage of this opportunity to openly break up with us?"
Zhou Guo asked: "Have you found out?"
Hu Zi nodded, "Although the relationship is several levels apart, the key is the Wang family."
Zhou Guo said: "We have suffered a defeat on the front line, General Xu is missing, and fighting has broken out at the border again. The situation is unstable, and it is understandable that the Wang family chose this time to take action. They have been keeping an eye on us. That incident back then offended them severely, and they have pulled out all their secrets."
Hu Zi then realized what was going on. "Does General Zhou at the front have a letter?"
Zhou Guo shook his head. "I don't know where the army is now. There is no news at all."
Hu Zi asked, "What about the Wang family?"
Zhou Guo said: "Don't alarm them yet, wait until we find the traitor on our side."
"What about those who bought this fat? Should we continue to sell it to them?"
Huzi felt that this was a betrayal. "Those people who are greedy for bargains are stupid and evil. If this fertilizer cannot increase their income from the fields this year, they may have to hold us responsible and ask us to pay for it."
Zhou Guo said, "No, they can't blackmail us even if they want to. The names of those who come to our house to buy fertilizer are all in the book. It clearly shows how much land and how many people there are in the family, how much fertilizer they bought, and what kind of fertilizer they bought. What can they use to blackmail us?"
After thinking for a while, he said, "As for the future, if they still want to buy, then just sell. It makes no sense not to do a deal that's coming to my door."
After everyone left, Zhou Guo sat back at the table, spread out a piece of paper, and wrote down everything that happened today, analyzing the pros and cons one by one, and writing down the current advantages and disadvantages one by one.
I don’t know how long it was before I stopped writing.
She took the papers and read them over and over again from beginning to end, and finally her heart calmed down bit by bit.
For now, the situation is not bad. Even though the general is temporarily missing, they are still the side with the advantage.
Not to mention the 100,000 troops stationed in Huaishan, even at the border, they have fought with the Hu people for so many years, with more wins than losses, and at least the Hu people have never been allowed to set foot in the north through the pass.
This time the problem shouldn't be too big.
In this way, the north will not be in chaos for the time being. What they need to do now is to do the same as Zhang Lian, stabilize their position, find out the traitors, and sell fertilizer and land to produce grain.
She went to sleep only after her thoughts were calm.
The old man and his men hurried back the next afternoon.
As soon as he entered the room, he asked Zhou Guo, "What happened? There were so many people around yesterday that I didn't have time to ask you. Why did you look so unhappy when you left?"
The bald-headed man asked anxiously, "Yes, who offended you? You tell me, and I'll punish him. Damn it, he is so blind that he actually offended you."
Zhou Guo asked him, "Why are you here if you're not going to the escort agency? You have to go back and take charge of the situation. There are more than 2,000 people this time!"
The bald-headed man said, "I know. I just wanted to ask you what happened. After that, I'll leave. It won't delay anything. Niu Si and the others have already taken the people away. I'll be in time for dinner when I go back."
Fortunately, they have bought the two houses next door in recent years, otherwise there would be no room for more than 2,000 people, and they would have to sleep in a crowded space tonight.
As the chief escort of the escort agency, it is impossible for Lai Zi Tou not to know about such things.
Zhou Guo said it concisely.
The old man was so shocked that he didn't say a word.
The bald-headed man was also stunned. After a while, he said, "What does this mean now? General Xu is in danger? Isn't the situation in the North going to change?"
The situation in the north is about to change, and the situation in the world is about to change!
The sky was about to become clear, but now dark clouds were covering it again.
The old man asked, "Didn't General Xu give you a letter? What did the letter say?"
Zhou Guo shook his head. "No, the letter only mentioned some interesting things at the border, and said that he should bring me yellow sheep next time he goes out. It didn't even mention that there would be a war at the border."
Several people were silent.
Zhou Guo looked at the bald-headed man and said, "Go back first. They can't do without you over there."
Baldhead stood up and left. He really had no way to deal with such a situation.
The old man asked, "What are you going to do now?"
Zhou Guo said, "What else can we do? We can only wait. I can't go to the front line. Huxi is so big, where can I find people? And it won't be of any use if I go. I don't think we are the most urgent. My uncle and his men will be more anxious and will try to find someone."
"How is the investigation of the traitor going?"
"I've handed it over to Hu Zi. I estimate that there will be results in four or five days. Just wait patiently."
Hu Zi and his friends were quite capable. It only took them three days to find the culprit.
