Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 26: First Show of Skill

The next morning, Lu Shaohua got up early, but when he got up, he found that Chen Guobang also opened his eyes, obviously awake. "Brother, good morning!"

"Haha, aren't you here early too?" Chen Guobang looked in the direction of the voice and realized that the person greeting him was Lu Shaohua.

"Haha, get up, let's go for a run."

"Good Le!"

……

When Lu Shaohua and Chen Guobang returned home, it was already past eight in the morning. After a simple meal, Lu Shaohua asked Chen Guobang to go out. The two visited the homes of several village secretaries in the surrounding area one by one, and every time they went to a village secretary's home, they talked about the same thing, that is, "getting something for nothing". By noon, they had visited all the villages, and the result was the same, all agreed to come forward. What a joke, you can get some political achievements and bring gratitude to the villagers. Who wouldn't do such a cheap thing? They don't have to do anything, just say a word in the village and then guarantee it.

When I got home, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Lu Jiayao had gone out to buy lychees in the morning and was not at home. When I got home at noon, I found that Lu Shaohua and Chen Guobang were not there, so I kept waiting.

"Dad!" Lu Shaohua saw Lu Jiayao as soon as he entered the door and called out.

"Well, Xiaohua, Guobang brothers, where did you go? The food is cold. Eat quickly." Lu Jiayao raised his head and said when he heard Lu Shaohua's voice.

After lunch, Lu Shaohua, Lu Jiayao and Chen Guobang sat together. Lu Shaohua felt that now that the plan had been successful, it was time to tell Lu Jiayao, so he told him the whole plan. However, Lu Jiayao's face was full of disbelief. Finally, Lu Jiayao looked at Chen Guobang, obviously asking him if it was true.

"Yeah, it's true."

Lu Jiayao didn't say anything for a long time, his brain was a little slow to react, and after a long time he raised his thumb to express "awesome".

……

Two days passed in a busy manner. After two days, the 'village officials' of each village also settled the fruit-growing farmers. However, buses could not carry such a large quantity, so during these two days, Lu Shaohua went to contact the trucks. The saying "money makes the world go round" is absolutely true. When Lu Shaohua first went to negotiate transporting the fruit to Shenzhen, many bus drivers refused because it was too far. However, Lu Shaohua spent money at all costs, and finally the drivers could not resist the temptation and agreed.

On the morning of the third day, the whole family got up early because this day was the time to purchase all kinds of fruits. There were quite a lot of fruit farmers who brought fruits to sell, so the whole family got up before dawn to prepare.

At six o'clock, Lu Shaohua and Chen Guobang came to a large open space outside the village, but it was already crowded with people. They were all villagers who grew fruits. Next to the villagers were fruits packed in boxes. In fact, it was Lu Shaohua's idea to pack the fruits in boxes. He thought it would save a lot of trouble. After all, there were too many fruits and he couldn't find someone to pack them himself. It would be better to let the villagers pack them and then pull them over to weigh them.

In fact, Lu Shaohua and the others could have come here to help very early, but he went to the beach for a run with Chen Guobang as soon as he got up. When they came back, the house was empty, so the two of them quickly ate breakfast and ran out.

The two of them didn't know how many people they had to deal with, how many fruit boxes they had to cross, and finally they came to the center. They saw that there was a table in the center, and next to the table was a large scale, and Lu Jiayao was standing next to the scale, apparently responsible for weighing the weight. Sitting at the table was Lu Jiayao's cousin, who was also Lu Shaohua's uncle, Lu Yu. He had a little bit of culture, so he was responsible for small things like counting.

"Dad! Big brother!" Lu Shaohua and Chen Guobang walked up to Lu Jiayao and shouted.

"Well, you two are here!" Lu Jiayao responded to them, and then shouted to Lu Yu: "Brother, 82 kilograms."

"Okay!" Lu Yu also responded loudly.

Lu Yu had just remembered it when two people came out from behind where Lu Shaohua was standing and carried the fruit to the back. These two people were none other than Lu Shaohua's grandfather and grandmother. "Grandpa, grandma."

"Be good, Xiaohua. Be good, Xiaohua." Lu Shaohua's grandpa and grandma responded in unison.

……

"Brother, it's time to get busy!"

"Let's start." Chen Guobang responded.

After the two finished talking, Chen Guobang went to help move the weighed fruits, while Lu Shaohua walked to Lu Yu's side and said, "Uncle, let me do the counting, you go help my dad watch the scale."

"Haha, okay, you came faster." Lu Yu said as he stood up and gave his seat to Lu Shaohua.

……

They were busy purchasing until after eleven o'clock when they basically finished harvesting. The products from other farmers would take a few days to sell. This was something Lu Jiayao had discussed with them earlier. Each farmer would pick as much as he could and sell that day. All of them were pre-ordered, so after purchasing the products at around eleven o'clock, they could load the products onto the trucks in the afternoon.

Lu Shaohua had been keeping accounts for the whole morning, and his hands were already sore. Seeing that he had completed the acquisition, he stood up and stretched his waist, but just when he was halfway stretched, he heard an arrogant voice in his ears. "Who is the boss here, stand up?"

Hearing this arrogant voice, everyone stopped and noticed four young men dressed in shabby clothes. They were obviously some "social youths" who did nothing all day and made trouble. Lu Shaohua knew from their appearance that they were here to blackmail him, perhaps because they thought Lu Jiayao was honest and easy to bully.

"Hey, that's the boss, stand out." Hearing no one respond, one of the young men with dyed yellow hair seemed to feel embarrassed and shouted in a raised voice.

"It's me. What's the matter?" Lu Jiayao also knew that these people were 'society youths', but he couldn't guess that they were here to cause trouble.

"Fuck you, why didn't you say anything when I called you just now?" The young man who had just spoken swore and punched Lu Jiayao in the face. But before the fist hit Lu Jiayao's face, the 'social youth' let out an "Ah!" and screamed in pain.

In fact, when those "social youths" said the first sentence, Chen Guobang was secretly alert. When the "social youths" punched towards Lu Jiayao, Chen Guobang moved forward quickly, and when the fist was halfway, he caught the fist with the palm of his hand, and squeezed the "social youth's" fist hard. Then, the scream of the "social youth" was heard. When he heard the scream, he knew that Chen Guobang had used a lot of force to achieve such an effect.

"Fuck you, you dare to hit my brother, come on." One of them, who looked like the leader of these people, cursed at Chen Guobang when he heard the scream, and then called the other two to come up and surround Chen Guobang. It was obvious that they wanted to beat him up in a group.

Seeing Chen Guobang being surrounded by several people, Lu Jiayao was a little anxious and wanted to rush over to help Chen Guobang, but was stopped by Lu Shaohua. Although Chen Guobang didn't say it at ordinary times, Lu Shaohua had guessed that he was from the special forces known as the "killing machine", so he was not worried at all.

Sure enough, as soon as the four "social youths" surrounded him, Chen Guobang moved, his movements were as smooth as water, punching and kicking in one go. With every movement, one could clearly hear the sound of bones breaking...

In less than ten seconds, the three "social youths" who had surrounded them all fell to the ground, screaming in agony.

"Unbelievable." This word appeared in the minds of the people standing nearby who saw all this. They really couldn't believe that the few "social youths" who were fine just now were all lying on the ground in a few seconds.
