303 Don’t Lower Yourself to the Same Level as a Woman

“Okay! Let’s go there now!” Wan Dapeng agreed very readily and drove over.

The four drove to the seed store. Du Yue opened the suitcase and said to the staff, “Please help us see how many improved seeds these seeds can be exchanged for.”

The staff member looked in the direction they pointed and was instantly shocked by the suitcase full of seeds.

These people had just come to inquire in the morning. At that time, they did not say that they wanted to buy seeds, so he thought they did not have the money to buy seeds. He did not expect that they would be able to take out so many seeds. Although he was surprised, the staff member was still very efficient. “What kind of seeds do you want in exchange?”

“Sweet potato, potato, corn, and sorghum.”

The staff member soon brought the seeds they wanted. The quantity was much less than the ones they brought. Of course, this was normal. After all, the seeds sold here were all improved seeds.

After the staff member packed the seeds for them, he handed them a few manuals. “These are the things and methods that you need to pay attention to when planting. You must understand them completely before you start planting.”

Yu Xinya nodded. “Okay, thank you for the reminder.

The staff member smiled and waved his hand. “You’re welcome. Have you thought about who will sign the contract? After the food is received, 30% of it has to be handed over to the base, so of course, a contract has to be signed. Otherwise, what if you run away after harvesting the crops?”

Yu Xinya stepped forward. “I’ll do it.”

Whoever signed the contract would have to bear the responsibility, and Yu Xinya did not want Du Yue to bear it. Du Yue did not argue with Yu Xinya. There was nothing to argue about. Since the base was selling these improved seeds to the residents, it meant that as long as the crops were well taken care of, they would definitely be able to harvest food. The only uncertainty was the amount of harvest.

After signing the contract, the few of them left the seed store with the seeds. Yu Xinya and Wan Dapeng were in a hurry to go back. They wanted to plant the seeds immediately. Du Yue and He Xing did not have anything important to say. “Brother Wan, Sister Yu, why don’t you two go back first? We still want to walk around. We’ll just walk back later.”

It was not far anyway, and they had memorized the route after coming out a few times. It was not difficult to walk back. Wan Dapeng and Yu Xinya also knew that Du Yue and He Xing had their own ideas, so they did not say anything more. They just said a few words to the two and then drove away. Du Yue watched as the car disappeared into the thick fog. She looked around and asked He Xing, “Where are we going now?”

He Xing looked at Du Yue and could not help but laugh. “Weren’t you the one who wanted to come out for a walk? Why are you asking me where we’re going?”

Du Yue did not feel embarrassed. “Since there’s no place in particular that we want to go, let’s just walk around.”

The two of them randomly chose a direction and walked forward unhurriedly. Along the way, Du Yue kept looking at the shops on the side of the road. She realized that the third base was actually developing well.

Daily necessities were sold here, and there were even restaurants. They just did not know what the taste and price of the food were like. Just as she was thinking about it, she saw someone walking toward a restaurant. The people who walked out were a man and a woman. The man was tall, making the woman beside him look petite. Du Yue glanced at them and was a little surprised.

It was actually someone she knew. Du Yue did not say anything, but Ah Ping took the initiative to greet her. “It’s you?!”

The man next to Ah Ping noticed Du Yue. He did not hide his probing eyes and sized Du Yue up. “Ah Ping, do you know this beauty?”

Ah Ping bit her lip but still nodded. “I do. She stayed in my inn when I was at the second base.”

The man immediately laughed when he heard this. “We met each other in a foreign land. Since we’re so destined, why don’t we go have a meal together? It’s my treat! The taste of the food from this restaurant is very good!”

Du Yue waved her hand. “That’s alright.”

“Young lady, don’t be so polite! We’re from the same hometown. Isn’t it fate that we’ve met? People always say that when a townsman sees another fellow townsman, his eyes would be filled with tears. Let’s keep in touch so that we can help each other if we encounter any problems in the future.”

“That’s unnecessary.”

Du Yue’s cold tone made the man’s expression turn ugly. “If you have the ability, say it again…”

“Brother Lin!” Ah Ping interrupted the man’s words and forced a dry smile on her face. “Brother Lin, you’re a magnanimous person. Don’t lower yourself to the same level as a woman. We’re also new here, so it’s better not to make a big deal out of this. Don’t you think so?”
