Walking with the Villain, Lou Xiao'e's Alternative Love

Although a small incident occurred on the road, no one suffered any loss and the public security comrades handled it properly.

Because we left early, even if we were delayed on the road, we didn't miss the bus which only runs once a day.

After getting off the bus at the bus station, several people wanted to buy some gifts to send Sister Zhao home, but Sister Zhao refused very straightforwardly: "I know what you are thinking. I tell you, it is really unnecessary. I am not well educated and I don't have much knowledge, but I only believe in one principle: good people will be rewarded. You go back and have a good rest. See you in the office of our mine manager Sun tomorrow morning."

Several people looked at Sister Zhao's back and sighed: "The brothers and sisters of the Zhao family are lucky to have such a generous, sincere, warm and kind sister. She has also set a good example for the brothers and sisters."

In the guesthouse, after dinner, Lu Bin presided over a small meeting.

"Although Uncle Zhao has paved the way for us, Director Sun should also approve the application, but how much and how long it will take is still unknown. No matter what the result is tomorrow, we can't bother Uncle Zhao again. He has already been very kind to us. So, whether we can successfully complete this mission or not, we have to wait until tomorrow to determine."

"What should we do if Director Sun only approves a small portion for us tomorrow?" Liu Dalong asked.

"My feeling is! Even if it doesn't reach our expected number, it will definitely not be too small. I don't know if you have observed Uncle Zhao's expression. He is calm. He is a good fortune teller. If things don't go well, can Uncle Zhao be so calm?" Xu Damao analyzed.

It must be said that Comrade Xu Damao's observation ability is really amazing, and he actually discovered the truth.

"Yes! Damao is right. Let's stop worrying about the future. Let's all go to bed early. We must be in good spirits to meet with Director Sun tomorrow."

The next morning, when they arrived at the mine gate, Sister Zhao and Mine Manager Sun's driver were already waiting there.

"Alas! I'm late in asking someone to do something for me." Lu Bin said ashamedly.

Several people followed the driver all the way to the second floor of the office building, the mine manager's office.

The driver knocked on the door, and the voice of Mine Manager Sun came from inside: "Come in."

"Hello, Director Sun!" Lu Bin spoke first.

"Comrades, you have come from far away. I am very sorry that I only meet you today!" Mine Director Sun smiled and stood up to shake hands with several people.

"Please take a seat."

"Thank you, Director Sun!" Several people were flattered.

"Mr. Zhao has already told me about your plan to buy coal. The coal supply at our mine is indeed very tight, but I must help you!"

"Thank you so much, Director Sun!" Lu Bin stood up excitedly.

"However, there is a limit to what I can do to help you. Tell me your ideas and I'll see if they are within my capabilities."

Lu Bin stated the amount of coal he needed and his intention to purchase it on a long-term basis.

At this moment, everyone's heartbeats were accelerating!

"To be honest, I thought your demand would be huge, but I still underestimated the courage of your steel mill!"

Director Sun pondered for more than ten seconds and then said, "I can approve it according to your needs, but I have to make sure it is not affected by your production. You can pay the money in advance in one lump sum, or you can pay before each shipment. If you can accept it, I can also sign a long-term contract with you. If you need instructions, you can use my phone."

"Then I will use your phone to ask our leader for instructions." Lu Bin said excitedly.

"Okay. I'll go and arrange some work."

Lu Bin quickly dialed Deputy Director Li's phone number. After the call was connected, he relayed Director Sun's words word for word.

"The leader agreed and appointed me as the representative of our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill to sign a long-term purchase contract with the open-pit mine."

There should be applause here...

All the hard work and efforts made day and night are worth it. Only they themselves know the ups and downs of this process. But as long as the task is completed, it is the best reward.

Mine Manager Sun asked comrades from the sales department to take a few people to the coal preparation plant and then to the largest open-pit coal mine in Asia.

At that time, the open-pit coal mine was the second largest mechanized open-pit coal mine in the world and the largest in Asia, and it was also the highest level of China's coal mining industry at that time; it was the first modern, mechanized, and electrified largest open-pit coal mine in China, one of the four major coal production bases in China, and the location for the 1960 version of the RMB 5 yuan note.

When Lou Xiao'e came here to visit in her previous life, she saw the mining park that had already been built.

It was far less shocking than what we see now.

The representative of the open-pit coal mine who was responsible for signing the contract was Wang Hanting, the deputy mine manager in charge of sales. When Wang shook hands with Lu Bin, he said, "It's a pleasure to work with you."

After signing the contract, Lu Bin wanted to invite Mine Manager Sun and Deputy Mine Manager Wang to dinner, but both leaders refused.

Deputy Mine Manager Wang gave the following reason: "Busy"

Director Sun said a few more words: "We don't need to say thank you anymore. You have been here for so many days and it's been hard. Go back and have a good rest, walk around our small town, and taste the local food."

After saying goodbye to Mine Director Sun, the four of them went to find Sister Zhao and told her that they had successfully completed the task. Sister Zhao was also happy for them and invited them to visit Fu City again if they had the chance in the future.

After leaving the mining area, I felt that everything was so beautiful.

In Donglaishun, a halal restaurant, the four of them found a private room and sat down. When ordering food, Lu Bin asked with a smile: "Three comrades, shall we have a drink?"

Lou Xiao'e and the other two smiled at each other and said in unison, "Okay!"

The pressure of these days has finally been released and everyone is very happy.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the four of them were a little tipsy.

"Where are we going next?" Liu Dalong asked with a red face.

"Deputy Director Li said that we should play here for a few days and then recommend us for honors when we return. What do you think?" Lu Bin asked.

"I miss home." said Liu Dalong.

Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiaoe, meaning I should listen to my wife.

Lou Xiao'e looked at them and said, "I think we should go back as soon as possible! This way the leader will be relieved."

"Okay! Let's go home and have a good rest." Xu Damao said.

"Yes, we are exhausted during this period of time." Liu Dalong agreed.

"However, this experience has also made us grow a lot," Lu Bin said with emotion.

The four of them chatted while paying the bill and leaving Donglaishun.

The four of them agreed to go back to the guesthouse, have a good sleep, and return tomorrow.

The next day, before going to the train station, Lu Bin called Section Chief Hu to express his gratitude and farewell. He also called the sister in the factory's publicity department to ask her to help tell the families of the next few people that he was going back.

As the train roared, the four of them looked out the window at the same time, wondering if they would have another chance to visit this small town with its unique charm and strong rural atmosphere...
