Li Zhifang has been quite busy recently, working with Anning on setting up the greenhouse, and after setting it up, planting vegetables and growing seedlings, etc.
It was only after all the vegetables were planted that he, fearing a failure that might cost him money, stayed daily in the greenhouse watching over the seeds sprouting and the tiny vegetables growing, before he could finally feel relieved.
This day, as Li Zhifang was walking home with a hoe on his back, he happened to encounter a few idlers sunbathing and chatting in Xiangyang.
Seeing Li Zhifang coming, they called out to him.
Li Zhifang walked over with a smile.
One of them asked Li Zhifang, "I'm asking you, Lao Si, just how much is a few thousand bucks? Must be quite the pile if laid out, huh?"
"Not that much."
Li Zhifang answered vaguely.
"You really got guts, Lao Si. Never noticed such courage in you before. What if you can't pay back the borrowed money, won't you be jailed?"
