On the mountain road, Li Baoyu asked Zhao Jun as he drove, "Brother, why'd you make a special trip to the Logging Camp?"
Last night, Zhao Jun had gone next door to the Li Family's home and told Li Baoyu to ask Lin Xiangshun for a day off. Li Baoyu did as he was told and went to Lin Xiangshun's house in the dark. When he explained he needed leave, Lin Xiangshun instead told him to drive and deliver some things, after which he would be free.
When Li Baoyu came back and told Zhao Jun, Zhao Jun said it wouldn't be a problem. He happened to be heading to No. 77 Logging Camp himself, so he told Li Baoyu to just pick him up on the way back after finishing his task.
Hearing Li Baoyu ask his reason for coming, Zhao Jun just said, "I was thinking of asking the head of the timber transport crew. He's from Lingnan, so I wanted to see if he could help me get in touch with someone to buy a few dogs."
"Still buying dogs?"
