Rebirth 70: I am a Koi

After seeing off Grandpa Zhao and Professor Li, I was so excited that I couldn't calm down for a long time. Bai Hanchuan hugged me from behind and whispered, "Wife, you are awesome!"

I turned to look at him, with a smile on my face: "This is all thanks to Grandpa Zhao and Professor Li. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have had this opportunity."

Bai Hanchuan kissed me lightly on the forehead: "Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. I have seen how much effort you have put in."

I held his hand, felt the warmth of his palm, and a warm current surged in my heart. Yes, we have come a long way, experienced so many storms, and now we finally see the rainbow.

"Next, we should make some careful plans." I pulled Bai Hanchuan to sit on the sofa, spread out my notebook, and began to record the next development plan.

First, we need to expand the planting area. The existing land can no longer meet the growing demand, so we can consider contracting nearby barren hills for transformation and utilization.

Secondly, we need to introduce more varieties. In addition to the existing vegetables and fruits, we can also try to plant some precious medicinal materials, flowers, etc. to further improve the economic benefits of the planting base.

Finally, we need to build a modern processing workshop, which can not only increase the added value of the product, but also extend the shelf life of the product and expand the sales radius.

"Jinli, your ideas are all good, I believe we can realize them!" Bai Hanchuan looked at my plan with admiration in his eyes.

"Yes!" I nodded vigorously, my heart full of confidence.

The next morning, I called all the employees together and held a mobilization meeting.

"I have good news to tell you. Our planting base is about to enter a new stage of development!" I announced excitedly.

"Really? That's great!"

“We will definitely work harder!”

When the employees heard the news, they were very excited and expressed their willingness to contribute to the planting base.

Lin Xiao was so excited that his face turned red. He ran up to me and said excitedly: "Jinli, don't worry, I will definitely lead the sales team to sell our products all over the country!"

Seeing everyone so motivated, I feel full of strength. I know that the road ahead is still long, but as long as we unite as one and have firm faith, we will be able to overcome all difficulties and create a more brilliant tomorrow!

"Knock, knock, knock..." There was a knock on the office door. I looked up and saw that it was...

"Knock, knock, knock..." There was a knock on the office door. I looked up and saw that it was the retired gardening master! Next to him stood a young man who was unfamiliar to me. He was wearing glasses and looked very polite.

"Ms. Mu, Mr. Bai, I hope you don't mind me coming here uninvited." The old man walked into the office with a smile, and I quickly stood up to greet him.

"No way, we're so happy that you're here!" I said as I led the two guests to sit down on the sofa.

"Who is this?" I looked at the young stranger and asked politely.

The old man smiled and introduced: "This is Professor Li's student, Xiao Zhang. He is an expert in botany. I brought him here specially to provide you with some technical support."

So that's it! I suddenly realized what was going on and quickly asked Lin Xiao to serve tea and warmly entertain the two distinguished guests.

"Ms. Mu, I heard from the teacher that you plan to expand the scale of planting and introduce new varieties. This is a good thing!" Xiao Zhang pushed his glasses and said in a gentle tone.

"Yes, we are planning it, but there are still many problems that need to be solved." I handed our plan to Xiao Zhang and asked for his advice humbly.

Xiao Zhang took the plan, read it carefully, nodded from time to time, and occasionally offered some professional suggestions, such as choosing suitable soil and fertilizer according to the growth habits of different varieties, and how to carry out scientific irrigation and pest control, etc.

The old man added: "I am old and don't understand many new technologies. Xiao Zhang is an expert in this area. If you have any questions, feel free to ask him."

Bai Hanchuan and I listened very carefully and took notes in our notebooks from time to time. The arrival of these two people undoubtedly pointed out the direction for us and solved many of our confusions.

In the next few days, we revised and improved the plan based on the suggestions of the two experts and developed a more scientific and reasonable planting and management plan.

In order to select suitable land and equipment, Bai Hanchuan and I decided to visit various places in person.

"Let's choose this piece of land. It has a flat terrain, abundant water resources and convenient transportation." Standing on a vast piece of land, I pointed into the distance and said to Bai Hanchuan.

"Well, I think it's a good idea too. We can rent it first and then consider buying it when it develops in the future." Bai Hanchuan nodded in agreement.

Although the inspection process was arduous, our hearts were filled with hope and motivation. We believe that as long as we persevere, we will be able to develop and expand the planting base and create a better future.

However, when we were rushing to purchase equipment, we saw a familiar face at the gate of a factory...

I rubbed my eyes, and could hardly believe the person I saw—it was Mu Zhenzhu! How could she be here? Could it be... I immediately grabbed Bai Hanchuan, hid behind a tree nearby, and observed Mu Zhenzhu's movements.

She was seen wearing a brand new Dacron dress and small leather shoes, walking into the factory side by side with a slicked-back man. Judging from their intimate behavior, their relationship was definitely not ordinary.

"It seems that my good sister has also started to take action." I sneered, and I had a bad feeling in my heart. My intuition told me that Mu Zhenzhu's appearance here was definitely not accidental, and it was probably related to the equipment we were going to purchase.

Bai Hanchuan and I decided to hold off until we could find out the situation first. We asked the factory workers and found out that the man was the head of the sales department of the factory, and Mu Zhenzhu somehow managed to get in touch with him.

"It seems that she wants to trip us up." Bai Hanchuan's face darkened, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. I held his hand and signaled him to calm down. "Don't worry, we will always find a way to deal with it."

In the next few days, we asked around and finally found out Mu Zhenzhu's plan. She actually wanted to use that section chief to provide us with inferior equipment. If we didn't find out, the loss would be huge!

"This vicious woman is so vicious!" Lin Xiao cursed angrily. I calmed down and sneered. "Since she wants to play, let's play with her."

We took advantage of the situation and agreed to Mu Zhenzhu's conditions on the surface, but secretly contacted other manufacturers and purchased high-quality equipment. In order not to alert the enemy, we also specially arranged for people to secretly transport the new equipment to the base.

Everything is ready, just wait and see the show.

A few months passed in a flash. With the joint efforts of everyone, the expansion project of the planting base progressed smoothly. The new planting area has been divided, and the neat rows of greenhouses are shining in the sun. The processing workshop has also taken shape, and various advanced equipment has been installed and debugged, just waiting for the official production.

Bai Hanchuan and I stood in front of the newly built office building, looking at the vast land and busy figures before us, our hearts filled with anticipation and confidence.

"Hanchuan, you say..." I turned to look at Bai Hanchuan beside me, but found that his eyes were fixed on the distance, his brows slightly furrowed. "What's wrong?" I followed his gaze and saw a military green jeep slowly approaching and stopped not far away...

"Hanchuan, look, how beautiful our base is!" I pointed to the thriving scene in front of me, my tone full of pride.

Bai Hanchuan retracted his gaze, a smile appeared in his deep eyes, and he gently held me in his arms. "Yes, all this is inseparable from your efforts."

I leaned against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and a warm feeling welled up in my heart. "I can't do this alone without you."

We walked down the steps hand in hand and headed towards the workers. When they saw us, they stopped what they were doing and greeted us warmly.

"Director Mu, Director Bai, don't worry, we will do our best!"

"Yes, we will definitely build a better base!"

Looking at those simple and hopeful faces, Bai Hanchuan and I smiled at each other, and our confidence became even stronger.

"Jinli, look!" Lin Xiao suddenly pointed into the distance and exclaimed, with a hint of disbelief in his tone.

I looked in the direction she was going, and saw that a large mass of dark clouds had gathered on the horizon. It was so dark and oppressive, as if a huge curtain had covered the sky, blocking out the sun and making it hard to breathe.

"Why did the situation suddenly change?" I muttered to myself, with an uneasy feeling rising in my heart.

"It looks like it's going to rain." Bai Hanchuan looked up at the sky and frowned slightly.

"But..." I wanted to say something else, but he interrupted me.

"Don't worry, it's just a rain." He held my hand, his tone calm and firm, as if he was comforting me, or as if he was convincing himself.

However, his words did not dispel the uneasiness in my heart. Instead, they were like a flash of lightning, illuminating the most terrifying memory in my heart...

"Boom——"

There was a loud bang, as if the sky was roaring, deafening. Then, bean-sized raindrops mixed with strong winds poured down...
