Chapter 54: More Than 1,000 Catties of Bean Sprouts!
Chen Hu continued, “Later, tell them not to care about the origins of these bean sprouts. When I’m done eating, I’ll share some with them!”
“Okay!” Little Liu replied happily.
In this manner, there was then no need to always be on guard against those people in the future. These bean sprouts were really in high demand and many people kept thinking about them.
“Also, go out and get a few people now. Get… a dozen people. You guys follow Qiao Mei back to the village and grab her betrothal gifts back for her. If anyone is disobedient, tie them up and bring them in!” Chen Hu gave a fierce stare with the imposing manner of the section head of the armed forces department.
“Yes!” Xiao Liu immediately replied and walked out to gather a group of people.
Seeing this, Qiao Mei also prepared to leave. Since she was already in the city now, she had to go out and look for some green beans. Otherwise, if she did not have enough green beans at home, she would not be able to keep up with the supply of bean sprouts.
Just as she was about to go off, Chen Hu stopped her.
“Xiao Mei!” Chen Hu’s eyes flashed with doubt as he continued, “Didn’t you say last time that you could grow more bean sprouts? Then can you grow ten baskets a day now?”
Anticipation flashed in his eyes.
Qiao Mei replied without any hesitation, “Of course, but I need more green beans. I’ll go buy some green beans now, otherwise there won’t be enough.”
After she said that, she saw Chen Hu turned around and took out a big bag of green beans from under the sofa.
A gunny sack was filled to the brim.
Qiao Mei’s eyes lit up when she saw the bag of green beans. She walked over and opened the bag and discovered that the green beans inside were all extremely plump. One look and she could tell that they were good quality green beans. Naturally, the bean sprouts that grew from these would be of higher quality and tasted better.
“These green beans weigh about 100 catties!” Chen Hu stood at the side and noted Qiao Mei’s expression. He quickly tied up the bag and said proudly, “These green beans are from the best batch that I got the supply and marketing cooperative to keep for me. If you want more in the future, just come and get them!”
“Good, now I can produce about 1,000 catties of bean sprouts.” Qiao Mei nodded happily.
Now that she had green beans and also the type of the highest quality, she could naturally produce better bean sprouts.
Coupled with her energy, the bean sprouts produced would probably be even more delicious.
“Alright, take all of these and grow more bean sprouts. I’m still waiting for them. Bring as much as you have, just bring them over!”
Chen Hu hurriedly said.
The main job of the armed forces department now was to train the militia. Recently, the higher-ups had a mission to train hundreds of militiamen so the meals of these militiamen needed to be taken care of.
These militiamen were all big strong men and could easily eat three bowls of rice each at every meal.
Therefore, Qiao Mei’s bean sprouts were not a problem. No matter how much she sent over, there would be some place to use them.
It was a perfect solution for these bean sprouts.
Besides, the quality of these bean sprouts was so good that the militiamen would probably be very happy to eat them.
This was killing many birds with one stone.
“Okay!” Qiao Mei’s eyes flashed with a smile. “I’ll take all the green beans in this bag. The money for the green beans can be deducted from the money from the sale of bean sprouts tomorrow.”
She would not take the beans for free, she would still pay for them.
When Chen Hu heard this, the smile on his face widened. In the past, he had heard not so good rumors about Qiao Mei, but now that he had interacted with her, he realized that it was not the case.
Although she was fat and had an astonishing figure, she was still quite a capable person.

…
Soon, Qiao Mei got into a big truck and took a bumpy ride into the village.
She sat in the front passenger seat given that she was pregnant now. If she squeezed in the back of the truck with a bunch of men, what if an accident should happen?

As soon as the truck entered the village, it attracted the attention of the entire village.
Everyone looked at the truck and wondered about what was going on. Why did a vehicle come in now?
Could it be that there was going to be some new policy in the village?
