Early in the morning, trenchers and trucks drove to the village entrance. On the trucks, the engineering team sent by the county had already gathered at the village entrance.
Today is the weekend and Ye Xiaomi is also on holiday.
Wearing a yellow safety helmet that he got from somewhere, Ye Xiaomi was riding on a sika deer and directing Tian Wa and others.
"We are also an engineering team and we need to prevent floods!"
“That’s right!”
These rural children were excited when they saw the trench digger, and some even wanted to climb on it.
"Whose child is it? Do you want to take care of him?"
Qi Santai, the leader of the engineering team, glanced at the villagers handing him a cigarette and curled his lips.
"Why is that kid still riding a deer?"
"The village chief's child is called Ye Xiaomi!"
Qi Santai nodded, took out a pack of Yuxi cigarettes from his pocket, and threw it in his mouth.
"Where's the village chief? Let's sign the contract."
"I'll be there soon and arrange accommodation for you."
"Accommodation? We won't stay in your village. We start work at 7am and finish at 5pm. Just provide us with two meals."
"If we don't stay here, will the project be completed?"
"Don't worry!"
Qi Santai walked down and headed towards the river bank.
Ye Tian came back again on a motorcycle, watched Ye Xiaomi walking towards the river bank, and shouted.
"Xiao Zhu, keep an eye on these kids for me."
"Everyone in the village who is young and strong, take your tools and we will repair the riverbank together."
"yes!"
The villagers of Fenghuang Village also began to change into work clothes, and every family sent someone to help build the river embankment.
Seeing this, Qi Santai smiled and said, "Village Chief Ye, are you worried that we can't complete it?"
"Let me tell you, we are a professional engineering team."
"Let's work together and speed up. I feel like it's going to rain early." Ye Tian looked at Phoenix Mountain. The wind in the mountains became humid, and there was a circle of white fog above the mountain in the morning.
If you wear a hat on the top of a mountain, it will rain.
"Alright, even if you help us with the work, we still have to pay you. We are contracted to manage your village according to the county's arrangement."
"Even if I work for a day, I still make this much money."
"Really?" Ye Tian also looked at Qi Santai.
Qi Santai had vertical lines between his eyebrows, a hooked nose, and looked very shrewd.
"Yes, we do it according to the job, and we don't ask your village for help, right?" Qi Santai turned around and said to the workers.
More than twenty workers also shouted.
"Okay, I agree!"
“Just speed up!”
"By the way, your village needs to make an advance payment!"
“We can start working!”
Ye Tian also nodded, there was no problem with paying the advance payment first, and he also signed a contract with Qi Santai.
"happy!"
"Village Chief Ye, let's start now. Here's the materials list. You need to prepare sand and cement."
"You guys who work in engineering, isn't this included?" Ye Tian felt something was wrong.
"The project is the project, and the material cost is the material cost."
"Your village can buy it for yourself. If you buy too much, it will remain in your village." Qi Santai smiled shrewdly again.
Ye Tian took another look at the contract. This contract was drafted by the county, and there was really no material cost.
“How much sand and cement do you need?”
Qi Santai said a number and then handed Ye Tian a business card.
"Just buy from this place, you call and they deliver it."
Ye Tian looked down and didn't say much.
"Tian Chong, go buy it."
Ye Tian gave an order and asked Tian Chong to take the accountant to the decoration materials factory to buy sand and cement.
"start!"
Following Qi Santai's order, the workers headed towards the riverbank.
The river had risen, and the shore where they usually played had long been swallowed up by the water. Ye Xiaomi stood on the shore, holding a shovel, throwing dirt into the water.
"Dad, this won't work!"
"It's no use what you're doing. We need to repair the riverbank and the bridge piers."
"Isn't it possible for Jingwei to fill the sea?"
"You are not Jingwei. Besides, they are throwing stones into the sea."
"Stone?"
The conversation between the father and son made the villagers laugh. Qi Santai put his hands behind his back and started the trenching machine to move the rotten tree roots and debris away from the river bank.
"Dad, why don't we let Xiaoxue and the others go?"
"It's no use working them to death."
Ye Tian rubbed his daughter's head, knowing that Xiaomi wanted to help.
"Let's go down and help!"
Ye Tian changed into work clothes, took a shovel, and began to tidy up the river bank and help transport the garbage.
After working for the whole morning, everyone was sweating profusely.
Ye Xiaomi was also squatting nearby, moving stones.
“Aiya!”
Ye Xiaomi lifted more than 50 kilograms of stone, which scared everyone and made them scream.
"Xiaomi, put it down!"
Ye Tian ran over distressed and reminded: "Keep a low profile, you scared the villagers."
"Daddy, is it too big?"
“You think!”
"Okay, I got it!"
After Ye Xiaomi finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out a finger and pointed at the stone.
Stone.
Broken!
torn apart.
Ye Tian’s face turned pale!
