After the divorce, he settled in Northwest China and became a Shennong (a legendary Chinese farmer).

"Is this Honghe Cooperative? Look how powerful their farm machinery is."

Yi Mingjiang went to the county to attend an agricultural machinery training course in order to join the Honghe Agricultural Machinery Cooperative.

But this guy was a compulsive gambler; he couldn't resist playing cards for a day, and he simply couldn't save enough money to buy farm machinery. The bank wouldn't approve his loan, and he thought about working at a cooperative, but they complained that his operating skills were too rough.

But this guy is still not giving up, and he's been asking relatives to help him look for someone these past few days.

When he saw the three machines working together in the field, he subconsciously assumed that it was an order from Honghe Cooperative.

"What's this Honghe Cooperative? I heard it's a group of people brought in by locals who provide agricultural machinery services. I don't know the exact prices, but it's definitely more affordable than Honghe."

Someone immediately retorted that Honghe Agricultural Machinery Service Cooperative's prices have increased almost every year in recent years, and in Nasu, it is a behemoth with no competitors at all.

Yi Mingjiang was taken aback when he heard that it wasn't Honghe who had taken the order.

Then it dawned on me that the so-called "introduced talent" was just outsiders, right? I just don't know if it's that kid Gu Tong.

Back when they were in the training class, Yi Mingjiang disliked Gu Tong and had no good feelings towards any outsiders.

"Do you know the name of that outsider who's leading the group?"

Yi Mingjiang wanted to understand the matter, so he couldn't help but ask again.

"Who knows? Nobody knows."

As a result, no one paid any more attention to Yimingjiang, so he stopped and waited on the edge of the field.

He wanted to see if Gu Tong was really the one who dared to compete with Honghe Cooperative for orders.

Meanwhile, Gu Tong and Ai Kebai were giving it their all. Both felt they were in excellent condition and worked for more than three hours before stopping at the starting line.

The live stream room was packed with people. Despite the long duration of the stream, no one found it boring. Even if someone had to leave, they would continue watching when they returned.

Some people even expressed their sympathy: "They've been working continuously for so long without a break, do they think they're made of iron?"

Gu Tong walked in front of the camera and couldn't help but smile when she saw the message. She said, "Thank you for your concern, everyone. I'll finish this as soon as possible so I can relax. I'm guessing it'll be a busy day."

【Lonely Swordsman】: "Who cares about you? We're just worried you'll work yourself to death and then there won't be any more live streams to watch."

[I don't eat donkey meat]: "Little Dog, get some rest, and then get back to work."

.....

The fans wouldn't admit they cared about the streamer, and the atmosphere in the live stream changed again, leaving Gu Tong both amused and exasperated.

These guys are all all bark and no bite.

At this moment, not only Yimingjiang saw him, but Fanli and Gulixian also saw him.

Since Gu Tong was live-streaming, the two didn't greet him. They'd already been waiting for a while, so a little longer wouldn't make a difference.

Yi Mingjiang cursed inwardly, "I knew these outsiders were no good. They take advantage of everything and now they want to steal our jobs."

He never considers that he ended up in this situation because of his gambling addiction.

The man's eyes lit up, and he made up his mind. He got on his motorcycle and headed straight for the county town, intending to ask a relative to take him to the person in charge of the Honghe Cooperative.

He wanted to tell the other party that Gu Tong, an outsider, was stealing business from the cooperative.

If they're in a good mood, they might just let him work at the cooperative as a farm machinery operator.

Gu Tong didn't notice Yi Mingjiang. He chatted with his fans for a while and then ended the broadcast.

He planned to rest for a while before having lunch, and then continue working after lunch.

"Gu Tong!"

He had just turned off his phone and taken a sip of water when he heard someone calling his name.

Looking up, he saw Fan Li and Gu Lixian walking towards him.

"Manager Fan, I'm so sorry, things came up suddenly. It wasn't my intention to stand you up. Gulixian, you're here too? There's not even a chair here, I'm so sorry."

Gu Tong was a little surprised. She didn't expect that after she sent Fan Li a message, Fan Li would still come looking for her, and she was with Gu Lixian.

"You have no sincerity at all! I'll forgive you this time, but let me take a look at your tractor first."

Without wasting any words, Fan Li immediately got to work.

Gulixian didn't follow her, but smiled and said to Gu Tong, "We also have a follow-up visit requirement after the loan, so I arranged to come and see you with Sister Fan."

"Welcome, welcome. You should come at another time. I've been too busy today to properly entertain you."

Gu Tong shook her head. If it were a less busy time, she would definitely treat the two of them to a meal.

But today is really not an option; I'll have to eat a couple of bites and then go back to work.

"It's alright, we're here for work today. We'll come to your house again next time and enjoy your cooking."

Gulixian smiled slightly; she understood Gu Tong's meaning and accepted his kindness.

"Okay, it's settled then."

Gu Tong didn't say anything more, and then explained the use of the loan to Gu Lixian.

The purchase of agricultural machinery is the largest expense, followed by the purchase of pesticides and fertilizers, etc., and all related expenditures are completely reasonable and compliant.

Gulixian needed to understand this situation, so she made a note of it so she could perfectly report back later.

"Gu Tong, your tractor and three-furrow plow are well-maintained. Have you encountered any problems while using the agricultural machinery? Especially any quality issues?"

Fan Li went to check the tractor and the three-furrow plow, then came over and began to question Gu Tong.

Although it was a routine matter, she asked very detailed questions. If there were any problems, she would immediately contact the manufacturer to ensure that the farmers would not suffer any losses.

"Everything is fine. I just have one thing to say: I hope the price of original parts can be reduced, so I don't have to search all over the world for cheap ones."

Gu Tong made a joke and cooperated with the other party to complete the follow-up visit.

"Then we'll be going. We shouldn't bother you when you're busy, but there are time constraints for follow-up calls. Please understand."

Fan Li was very meticulous in her work, taking detailed notes, and then she said goodbye.

"Manager Fan, Gu Lixian, I'm sorry to have made you travel so far and go home hungry. How about this, after I'm done with this busy period, I'll call you and we can all come to my house for a meal."

Gu Tong was genuinely embarrassed, but he couldn't leave right now and could only try to make amends in a few days.

Fan Li glanced at Gu Lixian, noticing that the other woman was blinking and not giving any indication, so she smiled and said, "Okay, just don't change your mind later."

"No, not at all! Please take care, sir. We won't see you off any further."

Gu Tong laughed heartily, not taking this kind of teasing to heart at all.

His biggest concern right now is paying off his loans, so making money has to take a backseat to everything else.

Not long after, Dong Jun's wife brought lunch.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work! Let me see, it's mutton pilaf! I love it."

Gu Tong, Aikebai, and Dong Jun's wife greeted each other and then sat down to eat.

Dong Jun and his wife sat down on the other side to eat together, chatting quietly as they ate. It was clear that the couple had a very good relationship.

After eating, the group rested for fifteen minutes before continuing their work.

Before getting into the car, Gu Tong started a live stream, saying that a live stream is a one-day event, and he must keep his word.

People came and went in the live stream, some left and new people came in, and the number of online viewers remained high, which shows that everyone still enjoys watching.

From noon to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening.

Gu Tong and Aikebai spent more than nine hours to completely plow the 200 mu of farmland.

Spreading fertilizer is faster than turning the soil, and Dong Jun can take a break from time to time while simultaneously completing the fertilizer spreading operation.

Aside from being a little tired, the three of them didn't feel there was anything wrong with the speed.

However, this work efficiency terrified the villagers of Hongqi Village. They had seen the agricultural machinery of Honghe Cooperative before, and it would take at least three days just to plow and spread fertilizer on 200 mu of land.

However, Gu Tong and his team completed the tilling and fertilization work perfectly in just one day by using three machines working in tandem.

"You won't know until you compare; comparing goods will make you regret it."

Several elderly people couldn't help but sigh, a sentiment echoed by the surrounding villagers.

After the crowd dispersed, Ma Dongwen rushed to the scene and insisted that Gu Tong and the others come to his house for dinner.

"Everything is prepared at home, just grab a bite to eat, so you don't have to cook when you get back."
