The preparations Lu Yuan mentioned included not only equipment preparations, but also manpower preparations.
He went to the brigade leader's house and went directly to Lu Guoan.
"Uncle, I need to discuss something with you."
"What's up?"
“It’s almost harvest time, and you know how tired everyone is during the harvest. I was thinking of gathering the strong men in the team together, going up the mountain to hunt some wild game to store at home, so we can nourish ourselves while we’re busy harvesting.”
Lu Guoan immediately refused, "No, it's dangerous on the mountain. If anyone gets injured at this critical moment, it will affect the harvest."
Lu Yuan said, "Don't worry, Uncle, I thought of that a long time ago. We won't go too far into the mountains. You find some good people, and I'll take some men to dig traps first. My wife has a kind of sleeping potion, so we'll put it in the traps. We might be able to get it without even lifting a finger."
The drug space pharmacy has it readily available.
Even if he didn't have it, he had already asked his wife to prepare it after he learned that the spiritual spring water could attract prey.
Although Wen Moxue was only a novice, she could still make simple sleeping potions. Luckily, there was a recipe in a medical book, so she just followed it.
"real?"
Lu Guoan was skeptical.
"Boiled."
"You brat," Lu Guoan said with a laugh.
"Did you always use the medicine your wife made before?"
"No, that medicine is hard to get and expensive. If it weren't for the need to rush the harvest and help everyone recover, I wouldn't have let my wife take it out."
After saying that, he mysteriously instructed, "Uncle, you must not tell anyone about the sleeping potion. I'm worried that people will keep coming to me to go up the mountain, which will be troublesome. Besides, this medicine is difficult to make and expensive. If it weren't for the fact that harvesting is so physically demanding and I wanted to help everyone recover, I wouldn't have taken it out."
Lu Guoan patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, "You've really become more aware of things now, but this means your contributions can't be made public, and we can't reward you openly."
Lu Yuan immediately chimed in, "If we can't reward people openly, then we'll do it secretly."
Lu Guoan choked, realizing that the real intention was to make him pay out of his own pocket.
"Okay, if we can really catch some prey and divide the meat, I'll give you a few extra pounds of meat later."
At worst, he'll give this kid a share of the meat from his own family.
Lu Yuan waved his hand, "Uncle, I was just joking with you. Rewards are better given openly and honestly."
Then he told me about borrowing the tractor. He had originally planned to tell him this good news a long time ago, but he had gotten delayed and forgot to.
It's good to say it now.
"This can be considered a reward for my contribution to the brigade."
"Haha, yes, of course you can."
Lu Guoan was so excited that he grinned from ear to ear, revealing the chives stuck to his lateral incisors.
"Oh, Uncle had scrambled eggs with chives for lunch!" Lu Yuan joked.
The laughter stopped abruptly, and Lu Guoan's face twitched violently a few times.
She awkwardly picked out the vegetable leaves, looked at Lu Yuan's teasing expression, and glared at him irritably.
That brat, he doesn't give him any face at all. Can't he just pretend he didn't see it?
This ruined a lot of my good mood.
With a wave of his hand, he was about to shoo people away.
Lu Yuan dropped another bombshell with a grin.
"Uncle, there's something else I need to tell you. The brick factory manager said he needs to hire a tractor driver, and he wanted me to go, but I didn't agree..."
"What the hell? You don't want such a good job? You country bumpkin, is your brain filled with shit?"
Before Lu Yuan could finish speaking, he was interrupted and subjected to a barrage of insults.
Lu Guoan was furious; how could they not want such a good job?
This is completely outrageous.
So many people want to get into the factory but don't have a way, yet this kid turned down an opportunity that was practically handed to him.
If this were his own son, he would definitely beat him.
Lu Yuan quickly said, "Stop, Uncle, don't swear. I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Tell me. Let's see what kind of nonsense you can come up with," Lu Guoan said irritably.
Lu Yuan said, "Although I didn't agree to work at the factory, I said I would introduce someone to him."
The situation took an unexpected turn, and Lu Guoan became excited again.
He knew that his good nephew had taught several people how to drive a tractor a few days ago, including his two sons.
He wasn't stupid; after a little thought, he roughly knew that he was one of the people in the village who wanted to be recommended to learn how to drive a tractor.
"Ah Yuan, who are you planning to introduce over there?"
Lu Yuan spread his hands and said, "There are five people in our village who have learned to drive tractors. I talked to the brick factory manager about it, and he said to let all five of them try it out, and then we'll choose the one with the best skills."
They didn't say it was his suggestion, they just said it was the factory manager's request, and in the end, it wasn't up to him to decide who was chosen, and he had no say in who wasn't selected.
Lu Guoan rubbed his hands excitedly, "Okay, I'll go inform the five of them right now. When are you taking them there?"
Lu Yuan stopped him, "Uncle, don't rush. I'm thinking of borrowing the tractor after the harvest, so they can practice more."
"Let's not talk about that for now, so they don't get too anxious and don't want to do farm work."
Lu Guoan was a little worried, "But if we don't go soon, what if the brick factory finds someone else and doesn't want our people anymore?"
"No, I already told the factory manager that we'll bring people over after the harvest is finished."
"Okay, that's good."
This is truly a great joy. No matter which of the five people is ultimately chosen by the factory, they will all be from their brigade, and the brigade leader will be honored.
This kid is really something; he did two good deeds without making a sound.
