The newcomer stared intently at Yao Tongjia. The girl's face was so youthful; even if Ruan Shengpeng's wife had a baby face, she couldn't possibly be his wife.
He had once gone to that courtyard with Ruan Shengpeng and seen his wife and children. He initially thought Ruan Shengpeng was an old cow eating young grass and teased him for a long time.
Later, Ruan Shengpeng explained that his wife had a baby face, but in fact she was a college student and had worked for a while.
A scoundrel soldier marrying a college student—it's like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung! Sigh! Forgive his lack of education; that's the only way he can describe it.
At that time, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at his sister-in-law, and later Ruan Shengpeng used the excuse of sparring to beat him up!
Judging by that kid's enthusiasm, how could he possibly leave his wife in such a remote place? The man smiled and shook his head: "Captain, who is the person who brought me to see the thing that was made?"
Xiao Gengwu had noticed earlier that the person who came in was looking at Yao Tongjia with intense eyes, which made him very uncomfortable. Even when he was reading, he would still glance at Yao Tongjia.
When the captain heard the leader ask, he quickly pointed to Xiao Gengwu: "Look, that's the kid. He doesn't like to talk to people much, please don't mind him, leader!"
"No problem, no problem at all. It's normal for someone who invented the waterwheel to be a little arrogant! The whole commune can benefit from it! It deserves our highest treatment!"
These words put the captain at ease. This was Kagome's highest leader, and her life and death were in his hands. Although he had heard that this leader was not as cruel as the previous one!
But that's just hearsay. It's best not to provoke people if you can avoid it. He just saw how much this leader was interested in Yao Tongjia.
Fortunately, it was just a look. If he had taken a liking to Yao Tongjia, I don't know what I would have done!
While others were chatting in the courtyard, Xiao Gengwu remained seated reading, showing no intention of standing up!
When the leader heard that Xiao Geng had taught the village this technique, he was so surprised that his lips formed an "O" shape. He then praised, "He has such a broad vision!"
"How about I call the people from the commune to come and learn together?" These words froze the smiles of the brigade leader and the village chief. Was this a ploy to steal their cake?
The leader seemed oblivious to the fact that his smile had frozen: "Here's the deal: our commune will partner with your village to open a waterwheel factory. You don't need to prepare anything else."
"You only need to get him to provide the technology. The commune will take care of everything, including the land for the factory, the establishment of the factory, and its management."
"We'll split the profits 60/40: the commune gets 60%, and you get 40%. You can decide how you want to divide the remaining 40%!"
Even a fool knows that this waterwheel is a golden egg, and it was just dug away like that. It's heartbreaking!
But would they dare to say no? Obviously not. It's said that a higher-ranking official can crush you, and this leader was not only one rank higher than them, but also left them with 40% of the profits.
The team leader could only nod: "Okay, then we'll trouble you to make the arrangements, leader. We'll just wait for the profits. But, leader, could you give priority to the people from our village as employees?"
The leader glanced around and said, "Okay, under the same conditions, we can give priority to people from your village!"
These words brought smiles back to the faces of the village chief and the brigade leader. In fact, if it were them, they would definitely set up a small workshop first and then do other things when they had money.
Now that the commune is willing to cooperate and even leaves 40% of the profits, this deal is quite worthwhile!
After the deal was settled, the leader lifted his foot to leave, but then put it down again: "Young lady, what's your name?"
These words made Xiao Gengwu put down his book, stand up, and stand in front of Yao Tongjia.
This action caused the leader to feel awkward for a moment. He just felt that the little girl looked too much like his sister-in-law and wanted to ask if she might be Ruan Shengpeng's daughter.
The village chief's hands were trembling slightly, but he still said succinctly, "Her surname is Yao!"
Her surname is Yao, not Ruan, so she's definitely not that guy's daughter. Strange! How can there be such a similar person? He had doubts in his mind, but lost interest in investigating, and walked away!
The leader took a few steps, saw his subordinates standing like wooden statues, and immediately sneered: "Do you expect me to carry you away?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone followed the leader's lead. The brigade leader hurriedly followed, and the village chief, seeing that the person had really left, collapsed to the ground.
He was trembling all over, truly terrified by the torture methods used by those people in red armbands!
When the village chief caught his breath, the brigade leader and the village party secretary also came over. Both of them sat down with grim faces: "The golden egg has been dug up just like that!"
The two men took out their pipes and took several puffs. The brigade leader said, "Take it easy. They're only giving us 40% because of the Xiao family's kid. Let's not sigh!"
"Young Xiao, how should we divide this forty percent?" This was the question asked by the village chief. He knew he was shameless, but the village was just too poor!
Xiao Gengwu sat down in his chair and read Lu Ban's Notes again. Just now, Yao Tongjia rushed over, put the book into her spatial storage, and then stuffed the Little Red Book into his hands.
Otherwise, who knows what twists and turns might occur. He didn't even look up and continued reading, so Yao Tongjia knew that he was definitely letting her make the decision.
Yao Tongjia also wanted to make things easier for the villagers, but she couldn't treat them like fools. She asked in return, "Village chief, all three of you are here. How much do you think my brother Xiao will get?"
These words made the three men look at each other in bewilderment. Of course, they hoped that the 40% could be split equally, but considering that they couldn't do anything, they hesitated for a long time.
The village party secretary spoke up: "The village gets 10%, you get 30%, the village will benefit from your contribution!"
The village secretary's words brought a smile to Yao Tongjia's face: "Half for each of us, my brother Xiao gets 20%, and you get 20%!"
These words made all three of them's eyes light up: "Really, Yao? Can you make that decision?"
Yao Tongjia looked at Xiao Gengwu, who nodded: "She can make all the decisions for me!"
These words struck Yao Tongjia like a blow, but she didn't care: "Once you sign the contract with the commune, we'll sign one too!"
"Sure, sure!" The commune has influence. Even though the profit margin is reduced to 20%, it's definitely better to have the villagers work as laborers than to do it themselves.
The three men were immediately delighted! They then retrained the three men, planning to have them teach the villagers after they learned the skills.
It's a pity that there aren't many educated people in the village. Thinking about this incident, which was probably caused by the educated youth, everyone is unhappy again!
Back in his office, the leader couldn't stop thinking about Yao Tongjia's face. She looked so much like Ruan Shengpeng's wife that he couldn't pretend he didn't know.
He picked up the phone on the table and dialed!
