Chapter 0064 Continuous Work, Tearing Off the Mask
the next day.
Following Liang Qin's advice, Gu Tong went to Bulak Village and found Wang Yu, the village cadre stationed there, and directly signed an agricultural machinery service agreement for 200 mu of farmland.
The cost for the three operations per mu is 145 yuan, and the total price is 29000 yuan.
When he got home, he said something in the group chat, and then drove his tractor to Professor Mao's field.
At this moment, Aikebai had already begun tilling the land, and Professor Mao was watching from the edge of the field.
When Professor Mao saw Gu Tong arrive, he quickly stepped forward to greet him, explained about the seeds, and expressed his gratitude.
"Xiao Gu, the seeds you ordered for me have arrived. Thank you so much!"
"It's good that the seeds have arrived. I was just worried about delays."
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the other party, Gu Tong drove the tractor into the field and began to till the soil.
He was too embarrassed to do a live stream, so he posted an announcement this morning saying that he needed to focus on replanting and reseeding first, and would take everyone to see the scenery after he finished.
The two tractors worked in perfect harmony and completed the plowing of 80 mu of farmland before noon.
Without taking a break, the two replenished their fuel and headed straight for Bulak Village.
"Gu, Aikebai, shall we begin our homework?"
When they arrived at the scene, Dong Jun and Ma Dongwen were waiting for them.
After accepting the order to replant 200 mu, Gu Tong adjusted the work plan, with four agricultural machines working simultaneously in the afternoon, and all the tilling tasks were completed before evening.
The two replay orders were completed within two days, and the four-person team maintained extremely high work efficiency.
When we finished work in the afternoon, Ma Dongwen suggested that everyone go to his house for dinner to celebrate.
The total income from the agricultural machinery operations over the past two days was 38280 yuan, of which Gu Tong received 15312 yuan and the other three received 7656 yuan each.
Now, income from agricultural machinery has become an important source of income for everyone. The owner has already paid the full amount, and everyone is in a good mood.
"Eating is fine, but drinking is out of the question."
Gu Tong smiled and nodded, saying that it was a good thing for everyone to visit each other often, as it would be more conducive to unity among everyone.
Dong Jun and Ai Kebai naturally had no objections, so the group began packing their things.
Just then, an SUV drove up and stopped by the roadside, and several people got out of the vehicle.
"It's Li Yong from Honghe!"
Dong Jun spotted Li Yong immediately and then reminded everyone.
Gu Tong and the others stopped what they were doing, then leaned loosely against the tractor, watching Li Yong and his group walk over.
"Not bad, you've really made it big. I just don't understand, with such good market conditions, why aren't you raising prices, and you're even offering discounts? Is your money burning your pockets? Or do you have a problem with Honghe or me personally?"
Li Yong had a stern face, completely lacking the composure he had shown when he last met Gu Tong.
Although the four-person team has a small share of the agricultural machinery service market, the impact they have had is by no means small.
He thought that he could just scare them and they would back down, but it backfired.
"Huh? What are you saying? Didn't you, Manager Li, have a problem with us? You issued a blacklist and spread rumors to ruin our reputation, and now you're trying to turn the tables?"
Gu Tong retorted without hesitation, knowing full well that the conflict between them and the other side was irreconcilable.
As long as the four-person team continues to provide agricultural machinery services, Tianran and Honghe will remain competitors, and none of them will be able to become Li Yong's friends.
Since they've already come knocking on our door, we might as well just state our position directly.
"Wow, you outsider's got some nerve, huh? Let me tell you, there's never been any 'ban,' it's all just hearsay. I'm a very reasonable person, and I'm giving you a chance. If you're willing to join Honghe, I'll guarantee you a life of luxury."
Li Yong gradually lost patience, and his so-called calm and composed demeanor disappeared. Perhaps this is his true nature now.
He not only spoke rudely, but also forcefully planned to recruit the four-person group.
"You're dreaming! Since Honghe is so powerful, let's compete fairly. Why are you resorting to these underhanded tactics? Li, others may fear you, but I, Ai Kebai, am not!"
Before Gu Tong could reply, Ai Kebai became furious.
He felt his blood rushing to his head and started spitting out his anger, pointing at Li Yong's nose.
Li Yong's face grew even darker. He glanced at each of them and said, "Fine! I hope you stay this tough. Don't come begging to me when you're penniless. Let's go!"
He turned and left with his men, getting into the SUV in a huff.
After the car door closed, all his emotions vanished, and even his subordinates couldn't tell what he was thinking.
"Manager Li, where are we going now?"
The driver asked cautiously, but Li Yong didn't answer and just waved his hand casually.
The SUV slowly started moving. He turned his head to glance in the direction where Gu Tong and the others were standing, and said softly, "Have you seen their farm machinery clearly?"
"Look closely, there's one Dongfanghong tractor, three Lovol tractors, and several seeders, all of which are no-name brands."
The subordinate quickly replied.
"Hmm, have Yimingjiang come to my office tomorrow morning. It's time for him to do his part."
Li Yong leaned back in his chair and casually gave a brief instruction.
"Well, Yimingjiang was caught gambling in Hongqi Village before. He was fined and detained for 15 days. He won't be out anytime soon."
His subordinates knew about Yi Mingjiang's case, which had become a negative example and was featured on the legal education bulletin boards in various townships.
"Useless! Go back and talk to the dealers and tell them to cut off the farm machinery parts for those four people. I reckon their farm machinery should break down after such a long period of continuous operation."
Furthermore, can't you guys be a little more careful? Don't keep bringing up "bans," isn't that just giving us ammunition? Let's say we launched a package service that links spring planting, replanting, and autumn harvest; if you don't cooperate with us now, you definitely won't get a turn in the autumn harvest."
Li Yong was truly exhausted. He didn't have many capable people under him, and even fewer with brains.
Someone leaked the "ban" issue to the county government, which is now preparing to interview Honghe. He himself will inevitably be blamed by President Tang.
Mr. Tang is the head of Honghe, and he is always in the spotlight, while Li Yong does all the dirty and tiring work.
At this critical juncture, we can't afford any complications. We definitely can't accept a "ban" or anything like that; we have to steer the argument towards business competition.
Of course, Honghe also has its own advantages, and Li Yong does not believe that a few people can shake Honghe's leading position.
Meanwhile, Gu Tong and the others arrived at Ma Dongwen's house, where a pot of stewed mutton had already been prepared. They went inside, sat down, and started eating right away.
No one mentioned Li Yong. Now that things have come to this point, the two sides have already broken off relations. From now on, they will deal with whatever comes their way. In such a large county, everyone will have food to eat.
After eating and drinking to her heart's content, Gu Tong returned home.
He compiled the evidence that Dong Jun had collected regarding Honghe's unfair competition practices, and then sent it along with the complaint letter to the relevant departments in the county.
Li Yong mocked him, an outsider, in front of everyone. Did he really think he had no temper?
Gu Tong wasn't worried about the other party using violence. After meeting Li Yong twice, he knew that the other party was a very shrewd person.
People with a deep sense of cunning are generally very cautious in their actions and value their lives highly.
He estimated that the other party would be able to quiet down for a while.
