Lu Zhongjun drove the car all the way to Aunt Li Mei's commissary. The sun was warm today, and when I stopped, five or six neighbors were sitting outside the canopy of the commissary and chatting in the sun.

Aunt Li Mei hurriedly asked Anna what she was doing in the county, and Anna said briefly.

"Not only did you see foreigners, but you also saw the county magistrate and mayor?" Guo Yun's mother showed an envious expression on the side, "Old sister, your Li Mei has shown a big face this time!"

Aunt Li Mei looked at Lu Zhongjun and beckoned, "Captain Lu, I'm sorry for you to pick it up and send it away." Come in and sit down for a while! Your dog is smart, and I'm feeding you well. If you can use it, bring it back with you. ”

Lu Zhongjun had a smile on his face.

"It's okay, let's keep it with you first!" he said, glancing at Anna who was standing on the side, "I still have something to do, so I won't sit down, I'll go first." ”

"Hey, then you can open it!"

Lu Zhongjun turned around and drove away. Anna also went in. When the neighbors gradually dispersed, Aunt Li Mei entered the house and saw Anna sitting in the house writing, and asked.

Anna stopped writing and told Aunt Li Mei about her plan to contract the county milk station. Aunt Li Mei was very surprised and came over and sat on the side.

"Miss Anna, I know that you are not very different from our side, and that ability to see is rare. But you really have a score for this?"

Anna smiled and nodded, and told her conversation with Deputy County Magistrate Wang, "I will make the plan and hand it in as soon as possible, and if it is passed, I will do it." ”

"Really, Deputy County Magistrate Wang has expressed his position like this? With the support of the county, it is much more reliable!" Aunt Li Mei was surprised.

"Yes. Auntie, if it is done, when it is running normally, I think that when I leave in the future, I can also leave it to Da Song to continue to work, I don't know how much I earn, but it will definitely be better than him now. When the time comes, it will be interesting to see if he will be happy to take over. ”

Aunt Li Mei was stunned for a moment, "Miss Anna, how embarrassing is this! Are you really going to leave later?"

"Yes. Anna nodded.

"Well, that's a ...... What do you want me to say, if you really want to leave, why wouldn't he be willing to take over such a good thing. ”

Anna smiled and said, "Auntie, don't tell Da Song about this first, I don't know how it is now, I'll talk about it when I'm a little eyebrow-raising." ”

"Yes, yes, I know that! Miss Anna, you are so capable! You have already been to the city to meet the mayor! I have wronged you to stay in my house like this. ”

Anna felt it, and after Aunt Li Mei knew her identity, after coming back from this trip, she spoke to her more politely, not as casually as before.

This is also human nature. Anna naturally understood. She was kind to herself, and Anna wanted to repay her before leaving. So he smiled and said, "Auntie, don't say that." I'm embarrassed to say that. Anyway, no matter where I go in the future, I will definitely come back to see you when I have time. ”

"Okay, okay, then you're busy, I won't bother you. ”

Aunt Li Mei happily walked out.

Anna continued to write plans. Two days later, I went to the county to hand over the plan to Deputy County Magistrate Wang, who had returned from the city. Within a few days, the deputy county magistrate Wang affirmed her plan, instructed the local credit union to give loans to the milk station, and also allocated two more vehicles to liberate it, saying that it was considering adding two special wagons to support agriculture at the county railway station, and that in the future, if necessary, the milk from the milk station could also be transported to the city with other agricultural products.

Anna immediately set about contracting a milk station to recruit manpower.

There is no shortage of customers in the milk station, it has been in a state of short supply, and many small restaurant customers have to ask for milk products in order to get them. The biggest problem is acquisition and shipping capacity. Now with a loan and two more emancipations, the problem is solved. What Anna needs to do most is to change the way people at the milk station sit still while eating a big pot of rice.

She is indeed no stranger to this set. In the past, although she studied art, An's father was only her daughter, and everything would be handed over to her in the future, and he had been cultivating her management ability intentionally or unintentionally. Anna formulated a new reward and punishment regulations, announcing that she could leave if she wanted to go, and if she wanted to continue to work, she would stay, and the salary and bonus system would be implemented in strict accordance with the new regulations in the future.

The milk station has an attached processing plant, which processes and bottles the raw milk every day and ships it, and the administrator and the technician in charge of the technology were originally planning to quit, but seeing that the situation has changed, Anna promised to increase wages and bonuses after the benefits, provided that the hygiene and safety of the dairy products that go out every day must be guaranteed. The two saw that although Anna was young and still a woman, they knew that the milk station was different from before, and they had contracted out, and with the support of the county government, they were reluctant to leave even if they were aiming for the guarantee and bonus, so they immediately signed the guarantee and did it in full swing.

Da Song soon knew that Anna had contracted the county milk station, so he felt itchy in his heart, and discussed with Chen Li to simply leave the construction team to help her, anyway, she was recruiting people now. After Chen Li knew that Anna had completely rejected Gao Wei, she was originally disappointed, feeling that her cousin was a little bit of a tendon and didn't know what to do, but now she saw that Anna had contracted the milk station by herself, and it seemed that she had a good relationship with the county, so she went back to Hongshijing to ask Aunt Li Mei about the situation.

Aunt Li Mei had already been told by Anna to help her keep her identity secret before she left, and endured not telling her daughter Anna, only saying that the milk station should have a future, and it was right to let her son-in-law help Anna do things. Chen Li was moved, and finally nodded when she went back. Anna asked Da Song to come in and help with the transportation first, familiarizing himself with the situation. Da Song has great strength and works diligently, and soon became handy with his new job.

When Anna contracted the milk station, she knew that the next period of time would be very busy, and there were countless clues waiting for her to take care of, and I was afraid that there would be no extra time to teach music at the school, so she immediately said hello to the principal and asked her to find a new teacher to replace her as soon as possible. Fortunately, music lessons are not necessary, and the school does not pay special attention to this aspect.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of the first month, Anna was busy for almost half a month, and finally sorted out the affairs of the milk station, and the staff in the milk station, whether they were original or new, showed great interest in the new salary and bonus system, and were unprecedentedly active. The girl named Zhao Zhongfen, Anna still arranged for her to be the front desk clerk, responsible for recording the daily entry and exit of dairy products.

Zhao Zhongfen heard that Anna was named by Deputy County Magistrate Wang some time ago to take her to the city as a translator for foreign exchange groups, since Anna contracted the milk station, she was conquered by Anna's charm within two days, and she admired the five-body land, every day Sister Li Mei kept calling, knowing that it was inconvenient for Anna to go back and forth to the county and Hongshijing, and offered to say that one of his relatives had a small empty house, which was next to his house, and it was close to the milk station, and Anna would move in if she lived.

Going back and forth between Hongshijing and the county seat like this, Anna really felt very inconvenient. Although Chen Li kept asking her to live in her own house, firstly, her family was really small, and secondly, Anna didn't want to trouble her too much, so she politely refused, and was about to rent a place to live. There are two rooms inside and outside the house, cooking outside, sleeping inside, and a small courtyard with a separate door, which is really suitable, so I rented it for eight yuan a month.

Anyway, it was empty, and Zhao Zhongfen's relatives were naturally willing to rent it out, so they went to clean it up, turned on the stove, cleaned it inside and out, and gave the key to leave.

With a place to live, Anna doesn't have to go back and forth between the county seat and Hongshijing, tell Aunt Li Mei, and go buy some daily necessities and move in, which can be regarded as having a foothold in the county. After finishing the work in the milk station this day, I plan to go back to Hongshijing, and set off early tomorrow morning to visit the dairy farmers in Ganyuan Village. When I got out of the milk station and came to the side of the road, I was waiting for the suburban car to go to Hongshijing on a platform, and a familiar car drove behind me and stopped on the edge of the platform. The window glass rolled down, and Qiu Gong'an, who was sitting in the passenger seat, poked out his head and greeted Anna warmly: "Li Mei, go back to Hongshijing, right? Come on!"

Anna glanced at him, Lu Zhongjun was sitting in the driver's seat, twisting his face to look at herself.

……

Since the last time she came back from the city, Anna has been busy with the milk station during this time, and she hasn't met Lu Zhongjun much. It's just that the last time I went back, I heard Aunt Li Mei say that he had come to the house to see Lightning, brought Lightning meat to eat, stood for a while and left. Now that she met him like this, Anna suddenly remembered that the two of them had a quarrel on the way back that day, which was a little unnatural, and she happened to see the car coming behind her, and hurriedly said: "No need, you can be busy with yourself, I'll just sit in the back car." After saying that, he squeezed into the car with someone.

Qiu Gaohe watched Anna get into the car, the car suddenly drove past from the side, a puff of black smoke came out from behind the butt of the car, and said: "This Li Mei is really weird, there is our car on the way and you don't sit comfortably, you have to squeeze the car with people! She looks like a star, she has artistic expertise, can be a translator, and now she has contracted a milk station! I heard that Gao Wei from the county people's armed forces department wants to have a relationship with her, but she can't look down on her. I'm kind of dead to this heart. I don't know what kind of man can get an object like her!"

Lu Zhongjun looked at the car that ran away in front of him and did not make a sound.

……

After returning to Hongshijing, Anna spent the night at Aunt Li Mei's house, and early the next morning, she went to Ganyuan Village with the technician she had made an appointment.

The county's milk station has changed dramatically, and now the milk they produce every day can be collected in time, and the dairy farmers no longer have to break their legs to find buyers as before, let alone go bad and fall out if they can't sell it, and they are all very happy. Knowing that Anna and the technician were coming, Xu Bing's parents and many professional farmers raising dairy cows in the vicinity rushed over, thanking them and asking questions, and the scene was very lively. Anna brought a notebook, wrote down the problems encountered by the dairy farmers, visited several large-scale professional households, returned to Hongshijing in the evening, called Xiaoni, and the two went to a staff bathhouse under the Forest Bureau to take a bath.

After arriving here, the winter bathing problem bothered Anna at first. Because of the cold weather, many people take a bath once a week and are still hygienic, which makes it a little difficult for Anna, who used to take a bath every day even in winter, to adapt. When I first came, I boiled hot water every two or three days and brought it into the house, took off my clothes and wiped it myself, there was not much hot water, just one or two basins, it was cold soon, and I always felt that I couldn't wash it clean. Aunt Li Mei saw that she loved cleanliness, so she asked her to go to the bathhouse to wash, saying that someone in the commissary used to use the bathhouse ticket to offset the account, but now there is still some accumulation. Anna didn't want to go at first, and found it a bit unacceptable to have so many people stripping naked and showering together. Later, because the weather was too cold, I tried to go there, and after I went, I found that the situation was not as unacceptable as I imagined. It's foggy, everyone is naked, and no one notices who and whom, plus there is a row of single shower heads, you can wrap a big towel in it, and wait for the space to be freed up and go in to wash alone, which is much more comfortable than washing at home, so I often go over.

This year, the weather is extremely cold, it is out of the New Year, and there was a hail and snow a few days ago, and the wind blew and blew the face. When Anna returned to Aunt Li Mei's house, she felt chills all over her body, so she called Xiaoni, brought a change of clothes and bathing things inside, took a bag and filled it, and went to the bathhouse together.

The bathhouse of the Forestry Bureau is not far from or close to Aunt Li Mei's house, and it takes about 20 minutes to walk. Anna and Xiaoni went over, took the ticket and exchanged it for two locker keys, put the clothes they took off in the cabinet and locked it, there was no place to put the shoes, they were placed on the ground like others, they went in to take a shower, and when they came out to get dressed, they were dumbfounded, her shoes were gone!

The shoes on Anna's feet are still the same Aibu athleisure shoes she wore when she went to the airport last year, which are very durable and suitable for all seasons, because she has to walk a long way today, so she wears them again, and it is not too cold to put a pair of thick socks inside. Compared with the other shoes on the side, the style is really much better, and it should be taken away by someone who doesn't know it.

Anna looked for it on the side, couldn't find it, went to ask the aunt who was sitting at the door to collect the ticket, the aunt had a bad attitude, and when she heard that the shoes were lost, she immediately said that there were so many people in and out, how did she know where her shoes went.

Anna knew that she couldn't find it, and there was no place to sell shoes on the side, so she had no choice but to put her socks back, and Aunt Guan borrowed a pair of slippers to wear back first, saying that she would return them tomorrow. The aunt refused at first, but Anna took out five cents as a deposit, and the aunt reluctantly accepted.

Anna wore slippers and went out with Xiaoni to Aunt Li Mei's house, and after walking for less than a hundred meters, her toes were cold. The quality of the slippers is also very poor, the sole is soft and thin, not to mention, the upper is also two thin plastic belts, only a few steps, accidentally, the foot slipped, the laces will come off, and the sole is separated.

Anna couldn't walk anymore, so she stood there and looked down at the broken laces, depressed to death.

"Cousin, Cousin, look!"

Xiao Ni suddenly pulled Anna's arm, Anna looked up, and saw Lu Zhongjun actually standing at the door of the men's bathhouse, talking to someone.

"Captain Lu!" Xiao Ni immediately yelled at him, and Anna couldn't stop her, "My cousin's shoes were stolen!
