He Xieyu considered the pros and cons for a long time before he finally said, "Comrade Su, what deal do you have?"
The moment Houzi heard this, he smiled and said, "All the plans are written in the letter. Comrade He, you can read it yourself."
He Xieyu took the envelope and opened it. He pulled out several pieces of paper and read them carefully.
At first, he was skeptical. After all, the crisis they were facing was not something that could be solved by simply sending grains to other cities and towns. Unless they were able to solve the main problem, they wouldn't be able to solve the food shortage completely.
But the more he read, the more surprised and excited he became. After a while, he finally put down the letters and asked, "Comrade Su, are these data correct?"
Houzi nodded and replied, "These data have already been sent to the brigade. Currently, they are testing out the method written in the letter. It might take a few months before they can see the results."
"If these methods are proven, then we won't have to worry about failing the harvest," He Xieyu nodded.
Noticing his excitement, Houzi poured a basin of cold water on him by saying, "Comrade He, don't feel happy too fast. Even though these methods can be used to improve the soil's quality and the cost of building greenhouses can be reduced, the current situation cannot be delayed any longer."
He Xieyu thought about the last content in the letter. After thinking for a while, he said, "Comrade Su, I agree with this deal. When do you want to start?"
"As soon as possible. But before we start, I have to ask you to write a letter of confidentiality. My friends are willing to help the country, but they are unwilling to reveal their identities," Houzi replied with a smile.
Seeing him frown, Houzi added, "It's not that we don't trust you. But you know that even in the government, there are several parties. You know what the other parties will do if they find out about this matter."
"Even if we want to help, we have to ensure our safety. Comrade He, you don't think that it's too much for us to ask, right?" he added.
He Xieyu understood clearly that the political situation was not as peaceful as people thought. For them to ask for another layer of safety was not too much.
"Alright, I will write it now," he nodded.
It took him ten minutes to write the letter of confidentiality and put his signature and official stamp on it. After he was done, he handed it to Houzi and asked, "Comrade Su, the situation is urgent. When will you start your plan?"
Houzi read the letter for a moment before he said, "Let's meet at the mountain foothills near Xie Village. From there, it will be easier for you to transport the goods to other areas."
"Comrade He, you only need to prepare your people to transport the goods. My people will send the goods before midnight to the location," he added as he stood up.
Before leaving, he said, "We will only be responsible for preparing the goods. The rest will have to depend on you."
