Gu Xi didn't get involved in the specifics of distributing the farmland. She delegated the entire matter to the newly appointed farm director, Mr. Wang. He was someone Li Ming had chosen for her—a classic example of a quiet, hands-on pragmatist.
Mr. Wang had probably been briefed by his superiors before taking the post. He seemed to have guessed Gu Xi's temperament—her dislike for handling such tedious trifles. As a result, he only came to ask for instructions once. After that, he followed the base's existing land distribution policies and swiftly implemented the plan.
This, in turn, saved Gu Xi a lot of trouble.
Even Qi Xiang privately praised Mr. Wang effusively several times.
'He really is a man of few words and a lot of action. I have no idea where our Gu Xiaoxi found such a capable person.'
