Cheerfully eating away, Gong Ruini remarked that this Chinese New Year was indeed quite nice, especially since Zhao Gang and his friends decided to close shop after earning a significant amount right before the holiday.
After all, the consumption peak was over once the festival was over, and more importantly, a serious new leader had arrived. Zhao Gang, of course, was keen to avoid any trouble; new officials burn three fires, and he definitely didn't want to be the first.
The most important thing was that they had been busy all winter, and once spring arrived, the hustle and bustle would start once again. Zhao Gang wanted nothing more than to ensure a good rest.
Gong Tao was also exhausted, thinking he could relax upon arriving in the Northeast, only to find himself even busier.
If Zhao Gang hadn't been leading the way, Gong Tao would have gone on strike long ago, so hearing that he could finally rest was a relief beyond words.
