Chapter 355

Director Song merely smiled and waved his hand, signaling for them to hurry off and attend to their business. Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo left the Commune together. Once outside, they were filled with excitement, their steps hurried as they headed straight for the production team. Along the way, their minds were occupied with visions of the brick factory, wondering how best to transport the bricks back as quickly as possible to build their structures. They were intent on harnessing their carts and setting off without delay, as if the brick factory held some immense, irresistible power pulling them toward their goal. The wind whistled past their ears, but it did nothing to dampen their urgency or their spirits. The brick factory was a considerable distance from the Jianye Village Production Team. Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo sat on a slow-moving ox cart, jostled along the entire way. The cart crawled at a snail's pace, the wheels creaking with every rotation, testing their patience with every turn. As they watched the scenery drift backward along the road, they felt anxious, yet there was little they could do.
