Chapter 0081 After Hardship Comes Happiness: Harvesting Alfalfa
"Then let's take this Lovol Valley God. Let's sign the contract now."
Gu Tong didn't waste any time and directly signed the purchase agreement.
He had 34.5 yuan in funds, and considering that mortgages were too troublesome, he chose to buy it in full.
"We have the goods in stock, and we can deliver them to your door tomorrow morning."
After completing the formalities, Fan Li handed the contract and invoice to Gu Tong and promised to deliver the goods to his home the next morning.
Gu Tong expressed his gratitude repeatedly, and then went directly to the Agricultural Machinery Office before the end of the workday.
After paying 28 yuan for the goods, he still has 6.5 yuan in cash left in his bank account, and he is eagerly waiting for the subsidy to arrive so he can recover his losses.
Besides, Zhao Zhigang and I don't get along. Even if he doesn't dare to delay, he will definitely drag it out until the deadline.
When Gu Tong arrived at the agricultural machinery office, the same staff member who had greeted him last time was there.
Gu Tong's purchase paperwork was complete. After filling out the form, the other party told him to go back and wait, and to contact them by phone if anything happened.
"Thank you for your help! However, I hope there won't be any more instances of deliberate delays."
Gu Tong's words were not directed at the staff, but at Zhao Zhigang.
The staff couldn't help but laugh. Director Zhao was later criticized for this, so he probably won't make a fool of himself this time.
The next day at 10 a.m.
Fan Li personally delivered a harvester to Gu Tong, and Gu Lixian was also with her.
"Gu Tong, weren't you planning to buy a harvester on a mortgage? What happened, struck it rich?"
Gulixian is off work today. She chatted with Fanli on WeChat last night and learned about Gu Tong's purchase of a harvester, so she came over to take a look together today.
"What's the point of getting rich? I still owe your bank 200,000 yuan in loans. But I have this money on hand right now, so I'm too lazy to get a mortgage."
Gu Tong chuckled and explained before going to inspect the machine.
Since it was a brand new machine from the original factory, there were naturally no problems. He then signed the acceptance form and expressed his gratitude to Fan Li.
"Manager Fan, thank you for troubling me again. Why don't you have lunch before going back?"
"No, I have to go back with the car. I'll definitely come next time. Gulixian, are you coming or not?"
Fan Li shook her head. She was very busy with work every day and really couldn't slack off.
Then she turned to look at Gulixian and asked her whether she was going back in the car or staying here.
Just as Gulixian was about to reply, Little Stone suddenly ran over and reached out his paw to grab Gulixian's trouser leg, probably wanting her to play with him.
Seeing this, Fan Li couldn't help but laugh: "Alright, it seems Little Stone wants you to stay. Then you can stay, since you're not working today anyway."
Afterwards, Fan Li took her leave.
"Gu Tong, am I bothering you by being here?"
"How could that be? Come on, I'll take you to test it out."
After Gu Tong finished speaking, he took out his phone, took a picture of the combine harvester, labeled it with basic data, and sent it to the group. Then he and Gu Lixian got into the driver's seat.
The cab of this wheeled combine harvester is spacious enough to comfortably seat two people.
After returning from the test run, Gu Tong was about to cook when Dong Jun and his wife, Ma Dongwen, and Aikebai walked into the house together.
"Brother Gu, you've got guts! You bought a harvester worth over 200,000 to nearly 300,000 yuan without hesitation, unlike us who are so stingy when buying second-hand machines."
"Xiao Gu, congratulations on adding another powerful weapon to your arsenal."
"Brother Gu, you'll have to teach me how to operate this harvester later."
Dong Jun, Ma Dongwen, and Ai Kebai surrounded Gu Tong, chatting excitedly among themselves.
The four-person team has now acquired a full range of agricultural machinery, and no one can threaten them with "not providing harvesting services" anymore.
The "bundled packages" that Honghe previously offered had a significant impact on the group, as many medium and large-sized farmers chose Honghe because they were worried about harvesting issues.
These farmers may not necessarily approve of Honghe, but they are worried that the other party will not provide harvesting services.
Now that problem no longer exists. The four-person team has filled the gaps in their skills and will no longer be at the mercy of others.
On the other side, Li Yuxiu and Gulixian were also chatting happily, and they were just as happy for Gu Tong.
noon.
Gu Tong showed off his skills, cooking eight dishes and a soup with Li Yuxiu and Gu Lixian as assistants.
Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, everyone felt that this meal was like a victory celebration, celebrating that the four-person group had overcome another hurdle.
the next day.
Dong Jun and Aikebai arrived at Gu Tong's saline-alkali land with a hay harvester and officially began harvesting alfalfa.
Actually, harvesting 50 acres of alfalfa doesn't require multiple harvesters at all; it's just that the two of them wanted to learn how to operate them from Gu Tong, so they came together.
While there was still some time, Gu Tong explained the key points of the operation to the two of them, and then started the live stream.
"Family, have you missed me? Today I'm harvesting the first batch of alfalfa. Excited? Okay, without further ado, let's see how it's done."
Harvesting is a very important part of agricultural production, and Gu Tong will definitely be live-streaming it.
He hadn't started his live stream these past few days because he was waiting for this moment to give his fans a big surprise.
【Lonely Swordsman】: "They're harvesting alfalfa already? Greyhound's suffering is finally over."
[I don't eat donkey meat]: "Xigou probably planned this out a long time ago, planting alfalfa, raising sheep, harvesting alfalfa, a complete closed loop."
【Traveling with the Birds】: "Who understands? I actually feel a sense of joy and abundance."
......
Gu Tong boarded Aikebai's harvester, while Aikebai sat beside him, watching intently as he operated it.
Dong Jun had worked with harvesters a few times before and could operate them on his own, but he wasn't very skilled.
Even so, after the harvesters passed, large swathes of alfalfa lay fallen in the fields, but fans still felt the harvesting was very fast.
"Today's task is to cut alfalfa. Over the next two days, we'll let the alfalfa dry in the field, and then we'll bundle it up and transport it away."
Gu Tong took turns instructing Ai Kebai and Dong Jun on how to operate the equipment, and then chatted with everyone by the field.
At this moment, the fans were extremely excited, and they had endless questions to ask.
Gu Tong answered the important questions and also provided some basic science information.
"We don't have integrated silage harvesters, which cost over a million yuan each, but they can complete the processes of cutting, crushing, packaging into silage bales, and loading into trucks in a single operation."
【Lonely Swordsman】: "Keep it up, Little Dog! There will be bread, there will be milk, and there will be a million-dollar harvester."
【Small Town Exam Taker 123】: "Yes, yes, yes, you can't go wrong listening to him, you can have anything in your dreams."
......
The activity level in the live stream kept increasing, and there weren't many new fans afterward, but even this level of activity was quite alarming.
The lawn mowing was completed around noon.
[I Don't Eat Donkey Meat]: "Little Dog, will it rain these next couple of days? If it rains, we're doomed."
Gu Tong was about to end the live stream when a fan suddenly asked about the weather.
"It won't rain, I'm sure of it!"
He then gave a clear answer, saying that it would not rain for the next two days.
Fans recalled the last incident where the other party said it would rain, and then a thunderstorm immediately followed. Most people chose to believe him.
However, some people didn't believe it: "Look at how capable this little greyhound is, be careful you don't get proven wrong."
Amidst the commotion from the fans, Gu Tong shut down the live stream and then invited Dong Jun and Ai Kebai to his home for dinner.
For the next two days, the sun shone brightly under a clear blue sky, and the weather was exceptionally good.
Gu Tong usually starts a live stream every day when she goes to herd her livestock, so that her fans can see the weather conditions firsthand.
It wasn't until that morning, when he announced to the camera that he was starting his "grass-gathering operation," that his fans were completely convinced and believed that Greyhound truly had the ability to "read the weather by listening to the wind and observing the clouds."
