When Shi Wei finished delivering the supplies, it was already getting dark. Along the way, he had also spread the news that Niuniu's eldest brother would no longer be distributing the supplies. Hearing this, the villagers all applauded and cheered, for they had been dissatisfied with that man for a long time! Shi Wei told them to choose someone from among themselves; when the next batch of supplies arrived, that person would step forward to handle it. He also advised the villagers to make the distribution process open and transparent in the future, a suggestion that the gathered villagers heartily agreed with.
Because of the many delays, it was completely dark by the time Shi Wei returned.
Over dinner, Shi Wei felt it was time to leave the village. He had also asked the locals which direction on the mountain would lead to another village. With a destination in mind, they would no longer have to wander aimlessly as they had the past few days.
