He Yang nodded: "Sister, you know so much. Without you, I don't know what I would be like now."

Tang Zheng smiled and said: "Brother He, don't say that. I'm just going to follow you to restock the goods and give you advice. It's you who do this hard and tiring work."

Tang Zheng found that He Yang was really good at doing things. Besides being honest and upright, He Yang would take Tang Zheng's words to heart.

Tang Zheng felt that Chengda and Fangyuan were not very reliable, and He Yang immediately alienated them. Instead, he entrusted the strangers Song Jiang and Lu Junyi with important responsibilities. This was something that ordinary people could not do.

"What we have to do now is to discuss and draft a contract. After we saw the saplings and paid the deposit, we have to sign a contract with them to avoid any changes in the future."

"Okay, let's study it."

Tang Zheng said, "He Yang Ji, after memorizing it, the two of them discussed the changes."

Seeing He Yang yawning profusely, Tang Zheng knew that He Yang must not have slept well while taking care of Lu Junyi yesterday, so he said: "Brother He, please squint for a while. I'll call you when I get there."

"Okay, then I'll take a nap." He Yang yawned and then closed his eyes.

Tang Zheng, who was sitting by the window, looked at the scenery outside. In the 1980s, there were no high-rise buildings, no busy traffic, and the roads were full of potholes. The old buses creaked and creaked, as if they were about to fall apart, and smoke and dust were everywhere wherever they passed. .

The sun was a little dazzling, so Tang Zheng also closed his eyes to rest.

"Ah...my money...my money is lost...one of you stole my money!"

At this time, a woman holding a child burst into tears, and everyone couldn't help but look over.

Someone kindly reminded: "Did you put it in the wrong place? Look for it again."

The woman stood up and pointed to her trouser pocket where a hole had been cut: "There must be a thief, there is a hole in my pocket!"

"Oh, how did you find out? It must have been stolen at the station!"

The woman sat down on the ground: "That's the money my family needs to buy seeds after selling grain. We have worked hard for a year, but our work has been in vain!"

She cried heartbreakingly, and someone couldn't help but comfort her, but the more they comforted her, the harder the woman cried: "If my man finds out about this, he will definitely beat me to death. If I die, How can my girl live?"

As she said that, the woman hugged a little girl of six or seven years old and cried even more heartbrokenly. The little girl also grinned and cried loudly.

Everyone just watched and sighed, unable to do anything.

The woman wiped her tears and gradually fell silent, and the carriage became quiet again.

He Yang did not forget to tell Tang Zheng: "Sister, you have to take care of your money. Don't lose it."

Tang Zheng nodded: "Go to sleep."

After about four hours, the bus finally arrived at the passenger terminal in Xinshi.

He Yang carried his bag and walked side by side with Tang Zheng.

"Sister, where should we order saplings?"

Tang Zheng frowned: "I can't remember the exact location. I have to ask others."

In the last life, Tang Zheng was a fool, and his mind was sometimes confused and sometimes sober. Sometimes things from the previous life could not help but come to mind, but there were some things that she couldn't remember even if she racked her brains.

The two of them happened to pass by a bridge. Tang Zheng noticed with sharp eyes that the woman who had lost money from the same bus before was standing on the bridge with her child with a sad look on her face.

Suddenly, the woman picked up the child on the ground and raised her legs to cross the railing of the bridge. She was about to jump into the river!

Tang Zheng quickly pointed at them and said to He Yang: "Brother He, go and save people!"

Upon seeing this, He Yang put down the bag in his hand, ran over quickly, and pulled the woman down when she was about to cross the railing.

The woman holding the child fell to the ground, and the child was frightened and cried loudly.

The woman wiped her tears and looked at He Yang: "What are you doing? Just let me die, otherwise I won't be able to live..."

Tang Zheng walked up to the woman carrying the bag on the floor and began to persuade her: "Isn't it just a year's worth of food money? If you live well, you can still earn decades of food money in the future. How can you die like this?" It’s not a huge loss!”

The woman couldn't help but slap her thigh: "The head of my house will beat me to death... Even if I want to live, I can't survive..."

Tang Zheng sighed and asked the woman: "How much money did you lose?"

The woman said, "My family sold a thousand kilograms of corn at three cents per kilogram, which is three hundred yuan!"

Tang Zheng reluctantly took out three hundred yuan from his pocket: "Here, I'll lend it to you, and you'll pay me back when you make money later."

The woman opened her eyes wide and cried so hard: "Girl, we don't know each other, how can you give me so much money!"

Tang Zheng said calmly: "Three hundred yuan can save the lives of you two, so consider me doing a good deed."

"Thank you, girl, you are a good person!" The woman quickly kowtowed to Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng moved a step to avoid it: "Okay, if you have it in the future, you can return it to me. If you don't have it, forget it."

With that said, Tang Zheng stuffed three hundred dollars into the woman's arms and was about to leave with He Yang.

She suddenly remembered something: "Sister, do you know that in a village, there is a man named Wang Laoliu who seems to have planted a lot of hawthorn seedlings."

Tang Zheng only remembered this and didn't hold out much hope. The new city was so big, with hundreds of towns and thousands of villages. It was too difficult to find the person who planted hawthorn seedlings.

Tang Zheng was already prepared to search here for ten days and a half and interview hundreds or even thousands of people. As long as she persisted, she would definitely find someone.

This is why she was so anxious to come to the new city first.

Tang Zheng saw that the woman didn't respond for a long time, so he was about to follow He Yang, but before he took two steps, he heard the woman saying to herself: "Wang Laoliu... I know him..."

Tang Zheng was immediately pleasantly surprised and quickly turned back: "Really, do you really know him?"

The woman nodded: "We are just a village. Wang Laoliu didn't cultivate the land properly and insisted on planting hawthorn seedlings. His wife broke one of his legs and he is still limping now."

Tang Zheng had a complicated look on his face and didn't know what to say.

Since it's a village, let's go together. He Yang hired an oil-burning tricycle, and several people were crowded on the same tricycle.

The tricycle buzzed, black smoke billowed out from behind, and the smell of gasoline made Tang Zheng almost vomit.

When they arrived in the village, the woman asked Tang Zheng as she walked: "Sister, what is your name, where do you live? How can I pay you back when I have money?"
