After listening to this, Director Song nodded slightly. The doubts in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a barely perceptible glimmer of approval.

He slowly leaned back in his chair, but his fingers were still tapping the table rhythmically, as if he was still thinking about this matter over and over again. After a while, his eyes focused on Wang Jianguo again and asked him:

"Jianguo, even if the housing land problem is solved, how do we solve the brick problem? This is no small problem."

Director Song frowned slightly, and worry appeared on his face again.

"The brick factory near our village produces a fixed amount of bricks each year. In addition to supplying some public institutions, the remaining bricks can be distributed to villagers. The quantity is extremely limited. There may not be so many bricks for you to build houses."

Director Song's tone was full of recognition of practical difficulties. He knew very well that when doing things in the village, any problem in any link could lead to the failure of the entire plan.

Zhao Shuzhuo saw that Director Song had raised a new problem, and he immediately reacted and replied without hesitation:

"That's why we specially prepared to go to Director Liu today to see what he has to say. Director Liu has been running the brick factory for many years and is quite reasonable. We have dealt with him several times. Although our friendship is not very deep, we know him to some extent."

"We thought that we would go to pay him New Year's greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year and sit down with him to have a good chat about the bricks and see if he can help us with the quantity, price and delivery time of the bricks."

"After all, this is a key link in whether Jianguo can successfully build a brick house. We dare not be careless at all."

As Zhao Shuzhuo spoke, he looked at Wang Jianguo and Cheng Hai. The three of them exchanged glances, conveying firmness and determination to each other, as if to tell Director Song that they were fully prepared for this matter and would not give up until they achieved their goal.

After listening to Zhao Shuzhuo's explanation, Director Song's tapping of his fingers on the table gradually slowed down, and he fell into deep thought again.

After a moment, he raised his head and looked at the energetic and aspiring young people in front of him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

He knows very well that the development of the village cannot be separated from these young people with ideas and enthusiasm. Although there are many difficulties ahead, as long as everyone works together, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome.

"Well, you guys have thought it through very thoroughly. It does make some sense."

Director Song finally spoke, his voice steady and powerful, with a hint of encouragement.

"However, this matter involves all aspects of the village after all, so we still need to discuss it with the village cadres and listen to everyone's opinions."

“But overall, your starting point is good. If it can be carried out smoothly, it will definitely be beneficial to the development of our village.”

When Zhao Shuzhuo heard what Director Song said, a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. He quickly stood up, bowed deeply to Director Song, and said gratefully:

"Thank you Director Song for your understanding and support. Your words give us more confidence. We will definitely cooperate with the village's arrangements and get this done."

Wang Jianguo and Cheng Hai also stood up and thanked Director Song together.

After the three of them had their fill of wine and food, they packed their clothes with a little gratitude and reluctance to leave Director Song's family, and were about to walk out the door. At this moment, Director Song's loud voice suddenly came from behind them:

"Jianguo, wait for me."

The three stopped and turned around when they heard the voice, only to see Director Song standing up from his seat and walking towards them in a hurry with big strides.

Director Song's face was full of seriousness and determination. He frowned slightly, glanced at the three people's faces one by one, and then said:

"I thought about it and decided to go with you guys."

He paused slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of concern and importance.

"You guys are planning to build a brick house. This is the first time in Jianye Village that this has ever happened. There are so many aspects involved. It is definitely not a small matter."

"Take the brick factory for example. Although you have met Director Liu a few times, if you really want to discuss the specifics of supplying bricks, such as quantity, price, and delivery time, some things can be discussed if I go there."

"After all, I have been working in the village for so many years, and Director Liu and I have been friends for many years. We know each other well, so there are not so many twists and turns in communication."

Wang Jianguo and the other two looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their eyes, and then they showed their approval. They knew that what Director Song said was true, and with him coming forward, the brick factory's affairs would most likely go much more smoothly.

However, when they thought about the fact that it was Chinese New Year, a festive day for families to reunite and visit relatives and friends, and they had to trouble Director Song to go with them, the three of them felt particularly embarrassed, and some guilt and hesitation appeared on their faces.

Director Song saw what Wang Jianguo and the other two meant at a glance. He laughed heartily, stepped forward, patted Wang Jianguo on the shoulder, and said:

"Oh! Be a man, don't worry about these etiquettes."

Director Song's eyes were full of open-mindedness and enthusiasm.

"Director Liu and I have been friends for many years. We are all busy with our own things on weekdays and rarely have time to get together. Let's go see him on New Year's Day, catch up, and finalize the construction of your house. There is nothing wrong with that. Let's go."

As he spoke, Director Song took the lead and walked towards the door, his steps brisk and firm, as if he had seen the dawn of a successful solution to the problem.

Wang Jianguo and the other two were moved when they saw this. They knew that if they refused again, it would be hypocritical. So Wang Jianguo took a few quick steps to catch up with Director Song and said:

"Director Song, thank you so much! With your help, we feel much more at ease."

Zhao Shuzhuo and Cheng Hai also hurriedly followed, nodding frequently from behind and muttering words of gratitude.

The group walked out of Director Song's house in a lively manner and headed towards Director Liu's house.

At this time, although the sky outside was a little gloomy, everyone's hearts were warm as if they had a little sun in their hearts.

The big red lanterns on the street swayed gently in the breeze, as if cheering them on and witnessing their efforts for a better life.
