Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

As the car drove into the village, Wang An's tense heart finally relaxed completely. Once inside the village, he was home!
In those days, even the most formidable bandits couldn't possibly sneak into a village in the dead of night to set up an ambush.

As soon as the headlights of the two cars shone into the yard, Wang Dazhu and his wife, along with Mu Xueqing, who had been on tenterhooks, immediately ran out of the house.

In fact, ever since Wang An and the others left, the three of them hadn't slept at all, and had been anxiously waiting in their respective rooms.

There's no way around it. In this day and age, transporting fertilizer is almost like transporting gold. In fact, no one would dare to rob gold, and of course, no one would dare to rob it. But there are plenty of people who would rob fertilizer, mainly because they dare to rob it.

Although gold is valuable, once you have it, you may not be able to find a buyer to sell it to quickly.

Once you get your hands on fertilizer, you can turn it into money immediately. There's no need to worry about sales channels. You just need to stroll around the villages and you can easily sell it.

Nobody cares where it came from, and nobody cares whether it's stolen goods.

Most importantly, once the fertilizer is buried in the ground along with the seeds, all the other contaminants disappear.

As far as Wang An knew, there were several groups of people currently involved in robbing fertilizers. When Wang An had time, he would have Zhang Shuya send people to arrest them all.

Those who do inhuman things should be sent behind bars for a proper makeover.

After Wang An and the others got off the truck one by one, Liu Guilan looked at the truck bed full of fertilizer and, instead of her previous worry, smiled and said:
"My eldest son is such a pain in the neck; he's brought all this fertilizer into our house. Hahaha, we're sure to get a huge harvest this year! It'll be a bumper crop, a really big one."

Wang Dazhu echoed with a smile:

"Yeah, with all this fertilizer being applied to the fields, everything that's planted will grow like crazy, hahaha."

As farmers who experienced those extremely difficult years, Wang Dazhu and his wife's dedication and passion for food were almost obsessive.

The main reason is that only those who have truly experienced hunger know how painful it is to be hungry but have no food to eat.

This is actually why China at that time spent a lot of precious foreign exchange to import fertilizers.

There was no other way; without food, people would truly starve to death!

After praising the fertilizer, Liu Guilan asked Wang An:

"Xiao An, did you run into any trouble on your trip to pick up fertilizer?"

Wang An shook his head with a smile and said:

"Nothing happened. If something had really happened, would we have been back this quickly? It's been a minute and a half since we left home. Haha. How fast! We didn't miss a thing."

Turning his head, Wang An called to the people who were filing out of the car:
"Come on, everyone, lend a hand and unload the truck. After we're done, we'll give you your pay and go to sleep. You've all worked so hard in the dark of night."

Everyone quickly said things like "It's not hard work" and "It's okay," and then they all picked up the fertilizer.

Just then, Mu Xueli suddenly said:

"Brother-in-law, leave the 1 ton of fertilizer we need on the truck and don't unload it. I'll drive it home as soon as it's light."

Wang Li immediately added:
"Yeah, Fourth Brother, don't unload my two tons either. It'll be too much work to load them back onto the truck after unloading."

Wang An thought it made sense, so he called out to everyone:
"Then unload half of it, and move down 70 bags."

Everyone agreed and continued carrying it.

Actually, whether loading or unloading fertilizer, the hardest part is carrying it on your shoulders, because this step relies entirely on your back strength, and it's best to have someone help you lift it. Perhaps out of his love for fertilizer, Comrade Wang Dazhu even took it upon himself to carry it.

However, for Wang Dazhu, who had been working all year round, carrying a few bags of fertilizer was no big deal, so neither Wang An nor Liu Guilan said a word.

Soon, half the truckload of fertilizer was unloaded. Only then did Wang Li finally ask Wang An:

"Fourth Brother, how did you manage to deal with that warehouse manager? He seemed like a sour dog to me, changing his attitude so quickly!"

Mu Xueli also chimed in:

"Yeah, that kid changes his face faster than a sour-faced dog. Brother-in-law, what did you do?"

Wang An was about to explain the reason, but then an idea popped into his head, and he put on a mysterious expression and said:

"Absolutely. If I couldn't even handle something this simple, how could I be your brother-in-law and fourth brother? Don't even mention a lowly warehouse manager; even the logistics supervisor has to obey orders. How can he manage if he doesn't?"

By the end, Wang An had adopted an air of absolute arrogance, and the sense of mystery surrounding his complete control only intensified.

Sure enough, Wang An's words, coupled with his expression, made Wang Li and Mu Xueli even more curious about how he had managed to do it.

In less than a minute, a notoriously arrogant and unfriendly warehouse manager was able to offer him enthusiastic and attentive service – something only a normal person could do!

Wang Li tentatively asked:

"Fourth Brother, did you mention someone and scare him?"

Wang An shook his head and said:

“He’s just a temporary worker. What’s the point of promoting him? He’s only afraid of his supervisor. Who else can he tolerate? Didn’t you hear him say that he even chased away the relative of the county party committee office director when he went to haul fertilizer?”

Mu Xueli said subconsciously:
"So, brother-in-law, what have you got against him? Did you threaten him?"

Wang An rolled his eyes at Mu Xueli and said:

"Get lost! I've never met him before. This is the first time we've met. What dirt could I possibly have on him?"

Wang Li and Mu Xueli guessed several other reasons, but Wang An rejected them all.

Once Wang An sensed that the two men's interest had reached its peak, he said rather enticingly:

"Want to know? Let me tell you, if you learn this method, it will work perfectly no matter what difficult things you encounter in the future. Do you know what it means to have one method that can overcome all methods? This is my method."

Seeing the eager and inquisitive looks in their eyes, Wang An continued to tempt them:

"How about this, you two each pay me 5 yuan for tuition, and I'll teach you this awesome lightning technique, okay?"

Upon hearing that they needed more money, Wang Li and Mu Xueli's faces stiffened for a moment, and then Wang Li said with a bitter expression:
"Well, well, well, we still need money? Fourth Brother, we're closer than brothers, talking about money would be too formal!"

Mu Xueli also said in a flattering tone:
"Brother-in-law, you're my own brother-in-law, and I'm your own brother-in-law. With our relationship, talking about money is just too beneath us!"

Wang An rolled his eyes, gave Wang Li and Mu Xueli a disdainful look, and then pointed at Wang Dazhu and said:

"Did you see it? My own father is right in front of me." (End of Chapter)
