"They came to our village to see the tillage machine."
Yang Xiaogang said with a beaming expression.
"I heard that the village head mentioned our village's great treasure, the micro-tiller, when he went to a meeting in town. When the higher-ups heard about it, they came together to take a look. This afternoon, they walked around the micro-tiller for a long time."
"They were watching me while I was working with the tiller, and told me not to be nervous. Brother Yunfei, how could I not be nervous? I've never seen anything like this before. They were staring at me straight, and I was so panicked that I didn't know what to do with my hands and feet."
"It's good that they left after looking at me for a while. If they hadn't left, they would have delayed my work. Hehe, usually they don't even give me an eye. This is the first time I've experienced the feeling of being looked at by so many big bosses. I felt so light-hearted all afternoon, like I was dreaming."
After listening to Yang Xiaogang's words, Xiao Yunfei roughly understood the whole story.
He said with a smile.
"You are really good at driving the tiller. Work hard in the future. Brother Yunfei will not treat you unfairly."
This was the first time that Yang Xiaogang heard his "master" Xiao Yunfei praising him, and he immediately smiled.
He nodded heavily and said.
"Master, I will definitely follow you closely."
He suddenly thought of something and spoke again.
"Master, I heard that many families are planning to come to you and ask for help. They all want to use your tiller. Brother Feng and Brother Dazhuang also want to use it. They haven't gotten home yet, but they'll probably come to your house soon. I'm telling you this first so you can have some idea of what's going on."
Xiao Yunfei was not surprised by this and nodded.
"Okay, I get it. You've been busy all day, go back and rest."
"Okay, I'm leaving now, Brother Yunfei. If you need anything from Xiaogang, just let me know. Don't be polite to me."
"Well, go ahead."
Yang Xiaogang was right. Hu Dazhuang and the others arrived not long after.
When Xiao Yunfei saw someone coming, he went out and saw Hu Dazhuang and a group of people running towards his house happily, apparently they were competing again.
Wu Feng ran the fastest, talking as he ran.
"I'm number one!"
Xiao Yunfei asked.
"Brother Feng, why are you running so fast? Are you competing again?"
"It's not a competition. We're just anxious. We all want to be the first to tell you about using the tiller. If we get in front, we can work first. If we complete the task first, we can get free status first. That's what we're fighting for."
So that's how it is.
Wu Feng said again.
"Brother Yunfei, I heard that the condition for you to work for the Zhang family is that they help you for fifteen days. I can also help you work, I can work for twenty days, I can work for a month. Can you also let Xiaogang drive the micro-tiller to help me finish the rest of my work?"
"Okay, no problem."
Seeing Xiao Yunfei agreed readily, Wu Feng smiled and patted Xiao Yunfei's arm and said.
"Great! I told you that you agreed to help the Zhang family. With our relationship, my words will definitely carry weight."
"That's for sure. Brother Feng's words must be effective."
As they were talking, Hu Dazhuang and the others came over one after another. Everyone lined up consciously while catching their breath.
Everyone understands that whoever comes first will be helped first. Even if someone wants to cut in line, they will be ruthlessly pushed to the back.
Xiao Yunfei watched the line getting longer and longer, and then saw Cui Fangzheng rushing over with a few people.
Cui Fangzheng walked quickly to Xiao Yunfei with a respectful tone.
"Brother Fei, I'm here to intercede for the villagers in our village. Your micro-tillage machine works quickly. Do you think you can use it to do all the work for our entire village?"
As if afraid that Xiao Yunfei would not agree, Cui Fangzheng spoke again before Xiao Yunfei opened his mouth.
"I know this is a bit unreasonable, but I still shamelessly came to you. To be honest, our villages compete every year. We compare which village finishes the work first, which village has the least trouble, which village has the better life, anyway, we compete on everything."
"Village heads with good performance are rewarded and given honorary titles, but I've never received one because I'm lax in my management."
"Other village heads beat and scold the villagers, forcing them to work. They treat them like slaves just for the sake of a few bonuses. Not only that, every time the villagers hunt, they take away any good things and give them to the higher-ups. They treat the villagers like slaves. I could do the same because no one here cares about this, but I don't."
"If you don't believe me, ask the people in our village. I would rather not have those things than let the villagers live with dignity. We are all human beings. Although you have fallen to this point, I also hope that you can live a little more comfortably. I don't have much ability, but I have done my best over the years."
"Now I see hope in you. I believe you can not only lead our villagers to a better life, but also help me win this year's bonus and honorary title, which will make me proud and bring me honor."
"If you agree to use the tiller to help our village, I won't take any of the bonus when it comes. I'll give it all to you. Is that okay with you?"
"The bonus varies every year. The year before last it was eight taels of silver, and last year it was nine taels. It's about the same amount anyway. I heard the diesel used in micro-tillers is quite expensive, so this amount of money might not even cover the cost, but it's a token of my appreciation."
"Also, let's do as you said. Everyone will help you work for fifteen days. I can send people to help you supervise them. If anyone dares to use your micro-tiller and not help you work, I will deal with him for you."
"Brother Fei, look..."
Cui Fangzheng said a lot, but his only purpose was to get Xiao Yunfei to agree to use the micro-tillage machine to help the villagers with their work.
Xiao Yunfei noticed that many villagers were wiping their tears when Cui Fangzheng was speaking.
Perhaps they also know how good Cui Fangzheng is, but they just don’t have the ability to repay him.
Originally, Xiao Yunfei was planning to use a micro-tillage machine to help the villagers. Now that Cui Fangzheng is here, he can not only help him watch the villagers work for him, but also give him a bonus.
And as long as he agreed, Cui Fangzheng would owe him another favor.
After Cui Fangzheng finished speaking, Xiao Yunfei agreed without much hesitation.
"Since the head of the village has spoken, I naturally have to give him face. I agree to this matter."
After hearing this, Cui Fangzheng laughed so hard that he couldn't stop, and shook Xiao Yunfei's hand.
"Brother Fei is so kind and righteous. Cui Fangzheng is deeply grateful. I bow to Brother Fei again and thank him for his contribution to Fengtou Village."
Cui Fangzheng said this and bowed to Xiao Yunfei.
The villagers behind him also bent down and bowed deeply to Xiao Yunfei.
Xiao Yunfei helped Cui Fangzheng up.
"We're all from the same village, so there's no need to be so polite. If it were me, I'd let Yang Xiaogang drive the tiller to help you work in the order you're lined up now. Is that okay?"
Everyone nodded in agreement. Although the villagers had tears in their eyes, there was a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
Cui Fangzheng sent the villagers away, and he stayed behind to ask Xiao Yunfei something.
After entering the house, Xiao Yunfei called Su Miaomiao into the house.
Cui Fangzheng was a little surprised to see Su Miaomiao coming.
The men are talking about things, what are the women here for?
