Chapter 209 Made of Tofu
Lei Dashui widened his eyes in shock and walked forward to take the key to take a closer look.
But as soon as he stretched out his hand, Kong Xiaoniu quickly put the key back into his pocket.
"Lao Lei, this tractor is a valuable item. If you break the key, you won't be able to pay for it."
Lei Dashui's eyes widened. "Is your house key made of tofu?"
"And how come I didn't know when you, Kong Xiaoniu, learned to drive a tractor?"
Kong Xiaoniu was not angry. He took out the key and carefully wiped it on the hem of his clothes. Then he said slowly: "The comrade who drove the tractor went to the toilet. The key is such a precious thing, so he asked me to keep it for him."
Lei Dashui stared at the key in his hand, and this time he saw it clearly.
Tractor keys are shorter than regular door keys and don't have as many grooves.
A few years ago, when he watched people driving tractors in a nearby village, he used a key like the one in Kong Xiaoniu's hand.
After confirming that what Kong Xiaoniu was holding was indeed the tractor key, Lei Dashui's face immediately darkened.
Having been an enemy of Lei Dashui for many years, Kong Xiaoniu saw it at a glance and immediately broke into a huge smile on his face.
"Lao Lei, this is what the town's agricultural machinery station arranged for our village during this rush planting season."
"Don't be envious. Your village is working hard this year, and next year the agricultural machinery station might take pity on you and lend you a tractor."
Lei Dashui was so angry that he started to breathe heavily, but last year Linghu Village's harvest was indeed better than theirs.
It's not unreasonable that the agricultural machinery station didn't give them the quota for tractors.
But when he saw Kong Xiaoniu's smug look, he was still a little angry.
Afraid that Lei Dashui would get hurt because of him, Kong Xiaoniu immediately shut his mouth. Although he and Lei Dashui were rivals, they usually just bickered with each other, and he didn't want to really get Lei Dashui into trouble.
"It's just a tractor. Look how proud you are of it. We in Lingshui Village have plenty of adult laborers. We will definitely finish the planting sooner than you."
This time it was Kong Xiaoniu who was unhappy when he heard this.
"What's wrong with a tractor? It's better than your village not having one at all."
Kong Xiaoniu said this, and proudly waved the key in front of Lei Dashui again.
"Who said we don't have it?"
Lei Dashui blurted out these words without any hesitation.
Kong Xiaoniu was stunned at first, then he said with a sneer on his face, "I know which village the tractors from the town's agricultural machinery station were distributed to this time. I don't remember your Lingshui Village being one of them. Old Lei, you don't even know how to brag reliably."
"That's just me. If others heard it, do you think they would laugh at you, Old Lei?"
Su Nanzhi, who had been standing aside without saying anything, found this a little funny.
If Kong Xiaoniu hadn't smiled so happily, he would have been more convincing.
However, since her target customers have spoken, she, as a salesperson, must make her customer service staff happy.
She said to Kong Xiaoniu, who was laughing so hard that he almost collapsed, "Uncle Kong, we really do have tractors in Lingshui Village. Grandpa Lei didn't lie."
Lei Dashui regretted what he said just now. He was still thinking about how to go back on his words when he heard Su Nanzhi's words to save him.
He no longer felt so bad about suddenly having a cheap grandson like Su Nan.
He was so busy chatting with Lei Dashui that he didn't notice Su Nanzhi. It was because Su Nanzhi suddenly spoke that his attention was drawn to her.
However, he didn't believe a single word of what Su Nanzhi said.
If tractors could be allocated so easily, people from all over the place wouldn't have to fight each other to the bitter end every year before the double harvest.
Kong Xiaoniu finally set his eyes on the gauze on Su Nanzhi's forehead and waved at her.
"Your brain isn't healed yet. Go to the hospital again."
Su Nanzhi never expected that people would imply that she was mentally ill.
But she was not angry, after all, Village Chief Kong was also her target customer.
She rubbed her forehead, as if she didn't understand the meaning of Kong Xiaoniu's words, and gave him a grateful smile.
"Village Chief Kong, thank you for your concern. The doctor said my injury is nothing serious."
Just now, when the doctor was treating Yingdi, Su Nanzhi made an appointment and asked the doctor to take a look at her head.
Aside from the possibility of scarring, a forehead wound isn't a big deal.
Kong Xiaoniu was choked when he heard Su Nanzhi's sincere words.
Is there really nothing wrong with this guy's brain?
Comrade Su, who really had nothing wrong with his brain, ignored Kong Xiaoniu's inquiring gaze and gave a look to Bai Zhenfei, who was leaning against a tractor not far away waiting for someone.
Bai Zhenfei shouted away the children who were watching nearby, started the tractor and headed towards the direction where Su Nanzhi and the others were standing.
Kong Xiaoniu just noticed the tractor parked not far away. Because it was the rush farming period, there were almost no tractors on the road, as all the tractors were in the fields.
In addition, the color matching of Su Nanzhi and his team’s tractors is very unique, which really attracts people’s attention.
Now that the tractor was moving, everyone on the street immediately turned their attention to the vehicle.
Kong Xiaoniu no longer cared about Su Nanzhi and looked at the tractor with a burning expression.
If their village had two tractors, they would definitely be the fastest in the commune to complete the rush plowing this year.
Just as he was thinking, the tractor slowly stopped in front of them.
Su Nanzhi spoke again, and said to Bai Zhenfei who was sitting in the car: "Zhenfei, let me introduce you. This is Village Chief Kong from Linghu Village."
Bai Zhenfei immediately greeted Kong Xiaoniu enthusiastically.
Although Su Nanzhi positioned Bai Zhenfei as a technician, they only had a few tractors now, so Bai Zhenfei was also considered half a salesman.
During this period, Su Nanzhi provided some training to Bai Zhenfei and Zhu Changsheng.
The most important thing is to treat guests as your own ancestors. Enthusiasm is the most basic thing. If you can't speak, just smile at the guests.
After all, don't hit someone who smiles at you.
Bai Zhenfei showed his standard eight-tooth smile that he had learned, but he only saw Kong Xiaoniu's expression as if he had seen a ghost. He couldn't help but touch his face. Didn't he wash his face clean today?
Su Nanzhi also saw Kong Xiaoniu's expression and was wondering.
A young man walked over from a distance, holding a bottle of Arctic Ocean in his left hand and a chicken drumstick in his right hand. Seeing Kong Xiaoniu, the young man said impatiently, "Village Chief Kong, didn't I ask you to wait for me by my tractor?"
"I've spent so much time looking for you that I could drive a tractor around the fields a few times."
