Soon, a few men in their thirties and forties rushed over.
Zhang Cheng had a quick interview spree. After a simple check, he found that four of them were veterans, so he planned to hire them all.
After all, when the barren mountains were ready and the ginseng seeds were sown, when patrols were needed, they would work in teams of two and one group would be on duty for half a month.
“At the moment, the hill that I contracted is still being filled with soil and vegetation. Therefore, your current job is to coordinate the preparation of the hill. After the soil is filled and the seedlings are planted, I will plant a certain amount of ginseng. At that time, your job would be to patrol the entire hill to avoid large-scale losses. Is that fine?” Zhang Cheng said.
The four of them looked at each other and nodded, one after another.
It was easy work, and the salary was high. Naturally, they had no complaints.
Zhang Cheng prepared to sign the contract first and then leave with the four of them.
However, at that moment, a crippled man in his thirties rushed over. When he saw Zhang Cheng, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief and hurried over.
“You, are you still hiring?” It was probably due to his disability, so the man was not very confident.
Zhang Cheng sized up the man.
“We have enough for now.”
“Boss, I can quit,” a man suddenly said.
Zhang Cheng turned his head and looked at the man named Wu Qinghao. He used to be a squad leader when he was in the army.
Did he know him? Or was there something else going on?
“Xiao Chen was injured during the disaster relief two years ago. That’s how his legs are in this condition. I’m willing to give this job opportunity to him,” Wu Qinghao said straightforwardly.
When the other three heard that, they said, “We can do that too.”
When Zhang Cheng heard that, he couldn’t help but laugh. “You guys are making me envious at this point. Alright, I’ll be setting up a fish pond after this farm is done. The five of you can help me work on it together with the fish pond.”
The men looked at each other.
“Okay.”
The entire exchange been brief and succinct, almost militaristic.
After that, Zhang Cheng led the five of them back to Reliance Village.
The excavation and transportation of the soil was progressing rather fast.
However, leveling the soil to an area where it would not be easily lost to rain required a lot of labor.
After all, there were places where machinery couldn’t get through.
Therefore, with the help of He Damao, they hired about twenty temporary workers from Reliance Village to level the soil in places where machinery couldn’t get through.
When Zhang Cheng checked, he saw that they were all doing well. At least they were not slacking off.
After introducing the situation of the mountain range to Wu Qinghao, Zhang Cheng stayed in Reliance Village for another two days before returning to S City.
After getting on the train, Zhang Cheng looked at the backpack on his lap. In it were the 151-day dried ginseng, 101-day fresh ginseng, 510-day dried ginseng, and 310-day fresh ginseng that he had taken out after some consideration.
Along the way, Zhang Cheng found many of the ginseng vendors selling fresh ginseng. After asking around, he found out that fresh ginseng was more difficult to falsify than dry ginseng.
Therefore, they would be valued higher.
Therefore, after Zhang Cheng thought about it, the 1-day-ginseng and 10-day-ginseng from his Dimension were no longer dried, but immediately stored in the storage space.
After all, even if he needed to dry the ginseng in the future, he only needed to put the ginseng back into the space to start the process. However, the ginseng that had been dried could not be turned back into fresh ginseng.
After several track changes, Zhang Cheng finally returned to S City. He was excited about returning to his hometown after a long absence.
The ginseng province had felt foreign and alien, which made him feel isolated. Moreover, Xiang Xiang and Zhao Shengnan were not by his side, which made Zhang Cheng miss them all the more.
Back at Xiang Xiang’s place, Sister Zhang was housekeeping, but Xiang Xiang wasn’t around.
After making a phone call, he found that she was having dinner with Sun Xiaoxiao and the others outside. After Zhang Cheng spoke to Xiang Xiang, Xiang Xiang gradually opened up her mind and became familiar with Sun Xiaoxiao and the other girls who had borrowed the dance studio before. Occasionally, they would have a meal and go shopping together.
Zhang Cheng was happy to hear that. He packed the fresh and dried ginseng into sealed bags and put them in the refrigerator. Then, he rushed over.
Riverbank fishing.
Although there were all kinds of cuisines and food culture nowadays, a hotpot was one of the best choices when friends gathered.
Firstly, it was delicious. Secondly, it was affordable, and third, they could eat whatever they liked.
Therefore, riverbank fishing was the ideal side activity.
When Zhang Cheng rushed over, he couldn’t find Xiang Xiang and the others.
“Brother Cheng, over here.” Sun Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, had sharp eyes. When she saw Zhang Cheng, she quickly waved her hand.
Zhang Cheng looked at Sun Xiaoxiao, whose mouth was a little swollen from eating spicy food. He couldn’t help but feel amused.
“Are you able to stomach such spicy food?”
Sun Xiaoxiao smiled smugly. “Spicy food is the best.”
Zhang Cheng was even more amused. Hopefully, you can still maintain your pride tomorrow.
Saying nothing else, Zhang Cheng sat next to Xiang Xiang.
Then, he was surprised to see two girls he didn’t know.
“This is Yang Mei, and this is Lin Fei,” Sun Xiaoxiao introduced them.
Zhang Cheng nodded and greeted her.
“You’re back.” Xiang Xiang looked at Zhang Cheng with tenderness in her eyes.
She had missed Zhang Cheng when he was away.
“Yes. I’m back.” Zhang Cheng held Xiang Xiang’s little hand and silently conveyed his thoughts.
“Ah, my eyes.” Sun Xiaoxiao teased them.
Xiang Xiang’s little face turned red, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand.
Zhang Cheng was very thick-skinned and ignored it. He chuckled and prepared a dipping sauce for himself before eating.
After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Zhang Cheng paid the bill.
“How are you guys going back?”
Sun Xiaoxiao said, “Our school is nearby. We’ll be going back on foot.”
“Alright, be careful.” After parting ways, Zhang Cheng held onto Xiang Xiang’s slender waist and left.
When they reached home, Zhang Cheng did not wait before carrying Xiang Xiang back to the bedroom.
“Did you miss me?”
Xiang Xiang nodded repeatedly and said charmingly, “Yes.”
“Hehe.” Zhang Cheng could not hold it in any longer and pounced on her.
One round felt good, and two rounds felt even better. However, when he saw a clearly fatigued Xiang Xiang still trying her best, Zhang Cheng was too embarrassed to carry out a third round. After soothing Xiang Xiang to sleep, Zhang Cheng left home and went to Zhao Shengnan’s place.
He arrived at Zhao Shengnan’s place.
The woman was watching TV.
On the TV screen, two rather fierce and strong women were fiercely fighting with gloves on.
Zhao Shengnan heard the door opening, but she did not turn to look. Only when she heard the shuffling of feet did she spare it a momentary glance. After he found that it was Zhang Cheng, he immediately turned his attention back to the TV.
If one wanted to become a qualified professional boxer, training alone wasn’t enough.
One also had to engage in real fights with others and participate in all kinds of matches. Watching these boxing matches to familiarize oneself with others’ attacks, defenses, and adaptability to various situations was also just as important.
Zhang Cheng helplessly shook his head when he saw this.
For Zhao Shengnan, boxing was first. Perhaps he could be second? He was not sure where exactly he ranked in her mind, but he knew it would not even be on par with boxing.
He came to Zhao Shengnan’s side and found a stool to sit down on.
Zhang Cheng decided to buy a sofa tomorrow.

Five or six minutes later, the boxing match ended.
Just when Zhang Cheng felt that he could make out with Zhao Shengnan and tell each other their feelings, Zhao Shengnan started the boxing match from the beginning again.
“Hey you, I’m back!” Zhang Cheng couldn’t take it anymore.
“Okay.” Zhao Shengnan turned to glance at Zhang Cheng and continued watching the match.
Zhang Cheng had no choice but to carry Zhao Shengnan into the bedroom. After throwing Zhao Shengnan on the bed, he suddenly pounced on her like a hungry tiger..
