A Huge Contract Across Ten Thousand Mu, Crossing the Tekes Tunnel

Chapter 113 A Huge Contract Across Ten Thousand Mu, Crossing the Tekes Tunnel

Gu Tong got up to open the door and saw Dong Jun and Ma Dongwen, who had rushed back looking travel-worn.

The two drove a beat-up pickup truck to Tecos County. By this time, the color of the truck was no longer visible, but the two standing next to it looked like a perfect match.

"Pfft! Brother Dong, Lao Ma, you two fell into a mud puddle? Come in and wash up, then we'll talk."

Looking at the two of them, Gu Tong felt both sorry for them and amused, so she quickly pulled them to wash up.

When the two entered the living room, he had already prepared milk tea, and there were also some dried fruits and nuts on the coffee table.

"Brother Gu, this trip to Tekos County was definitely the right one! Gulixian's uncle provided us with a lot of help. There is indeed a shortage of forage harvesters there. We only spent one day running around and finalized a large order for harvesting 10000 mu of alfalfa."

It's clear that Dong Jun is a bit excited right now.

He briefly introduced the situation of the trip to Tecos, then gestured to Ma Dongwen, who took out several harvesting service agreements from his bag.

Ma Dongwen handed the agreement to Gu Tong and said, "Gu, the other party has already signed the agreement. The harvesting service fee is 100-120 yuan per mu. The agreement will take effect after you sign it. I suggest we hurry over there, otherwise it will be troublesome once Jinfeng Group has time to spare."

"Okay, let's get ready tomorrow morning and leave in the afternoon."

Upon hearing Ma Dongwen's suggestion, Gu Tong raised both hands in agreement.

They need to "play the time game" as quickly as possible to avoid any unforeseen complications. Therefore, Gu Tong decided to make preparations tomorrow morning and set off tomorrow afternoon.

"Okay! We'll head back now and meet you here tomorrow at noon."

L

Ma Dongwen and Dong Jun then got up and prepared to go back to rest.

After running all day, both of them were practically falling apart, not to mention the long journey they would have to endure tomorrow.

"Oh, by the way, I'm planning to ask Ma Yucheng to come with me on this assignment in Tekos County. Do you guys have any objections?"

As Gu Tong saw the two out, she shared her thoughts.

The order from Tekos County is huge. This 1-mu alfalfa harvesting order is just the appetizer. We should be able to get even more harvesting service orders when we get there.

Therefore, he thought of Ma Yucheng's "steel behemoth" and planned to cooperate for the first time.

No objections.

"I agree."

Dong Jun and Ma Dongwen were worried about the efficiency of the operation the whole way. With only four forage harvesters for the four of them, they really couldn't handle large-scale operations.

Gu Tong's suggestion was exactly what the two wanted to hear, and they immediately agreed.

"Okay, I'll contact Ma Yucheng later."

After seeing the two off, Gu Tong sent messages to Aikebai and Ma Yucheng upon returning.

Although it was a bit late, the two replied to each other immediately, saying they would meet up with Gu Tong before noon tomorrow.

The next day.

Not long after Gu Tong got up, Kurban and his son Ali arrived together.

Kurban was worried that Gu Tong's trip to Tekos County for harvesting services would take many days and delay the sale of his sheep.

After meeting Gu Tong, he directly expressed his concerns.

"Uncle, don't worry. It doesn't matter where I am. I can always find time to start a live stream. You just need to make some preparations later. I've already spoken with Director He at the slaughterhouse. He can help with the packaging, boxing, and shipping when you go there for slaughtering."

Gu Tong explained in detail his cooperation model with Factory Director He. Kurban and Ali discussed it and both expressed their approval.

"I have my own wholesale store, so I can send some sheep to be slaughtered in advance. Then I can list them for sale based on their weight, which will save me from having to pay the difference. I'm afraid of making a mistake."

Aili made a new suggestion, which Gu Tong thought was good, so she nodded.

After agreeing on the live-streaming sales arrangement, Kurban said, "You and Aikbai and the others go to Tekos together. Ali and I will take turns looking after the house these days, so don't worry."

Gu Tong had originally planned to ask Chen Liang to help watch the house, but since Kurban brought it up himself, he agreed without hesitation.

Kurban and his son left first, and he quickly completed the preparations for his departure.

At that moment, he received a call from Ma Yucheng.

"Gu Tong, I have two forage harvesters here, one integrated silage harvester and one regular forage harvester. Do you have any reliable farm machinery operators? If so, I can send out both harvesters."

"I do have someone here. You wait, I'll have him contact you directly."

Gu Tong immediately thought of Chen Liang. Chen Liang not only knew how to operate loaders and forklifts, but also had a farm machinery driver's license (G).

(According to the photo), the operator's skill level is said to be quite good.

After hanging up, he immediately contacted Chen Liang and asked him to call Ma Yucheng right away.

Now that Nasu County has entered the off-season for farming, it's not a bad idea to go to other places to earn some extra money.

"Thank you! Thank you so much!"

Chen Liang was overjoyed. It would be difficult to make money from now until the long winter, but he never expected that Gu Tong would provide him with an opportunity.

After ending the call, Gu Tong went to check on the ewes in the pen, planning to breed them when he returned.

Afterwards, he had a hearty meal at home, and Dong Jun and others arrived one after another.

Ma Yucheng and Chen Liang drove the two harvesters to the yard. When Gu Tong saw this "steel behemoth" again, he was still shocked.

"Aili, thank you for taking care of things at home!"

Gu Tong first thanked Aili, who had come with Aikebai. During his absence, Aili would take care of the remaining sheep, the farm machinery, and his 50 mu of alfalfa fields.

Aili smiled and waved his hand, saying, "We're brothers, no need to be so polite."

Gu Tong nodded, then said to everyone, "Get in the car, let's go!"

Six wheeled harvesters lined up in a long row, embarking on their journey and kicking up clouds of dust.

Gu Tong's Lovol forage harvester took the lead, followed closely by Ai Kebai, then Dong Jun, Ma Dongwen, and Chen Liang, while Ma Yucheng personally drove the integrated silage harvester, bringing up the rear.

After passing through rural and county roads and entering the national highway, the yellowing pastures along the way indicate that winter is approaching in the area.

Nasu has a high-altitude, cool climate and winter arrives early, while other parts of the Yiwu River Valley are gradually entering the peak season for alfalfa harvesting.

"Family members, our invincible team has hired two reinforcements who will be heading to the neighboring Tecos County. This time, they're going there to harvest alfalfa. Please follow the camera and see our momentum."

Gu Tong started a live stream after entering the national highway.

After the opening remarks, he used camera transitions to showcase the splendor of the steel dragon to his fans.

[I Don't Eat Donkey Meat]: "Wow, only a mighty dragon can cross the river!"

[Lonely Swordsman]: "This aura is incredible! If you didn't know better, you'd think you were going to attack aliens!"

【Ice Lake Snow Lotus】: "The boss is awesome! There are countless roads, but safety is the first priority."

Fans were stunned by the unstoppable momentum. In the footage, the vast farmlands had disappeared, and large tracts of grassland became the main feature.

As the distant snow-capped peaks drew closer, other vehicles in the convoy honked their horns in greeting.

Everyone in the live stream was screaming and yelling, not knowing how to express their feelings at that moment.

They had seen Gu Tong herding sheep to new pastures before, and they had also seen high mountains, deep valleys, and beautiful alpine pastures, but this massive migration of steel was something they had never seen before.

The number of viewers in the live stream continued to climb, and the number of new fans, which had been stagnant for many days, also began to grow slowly.

"Attention everyone, the Tecos Tunnel is ahead. This tunnel is very long, so please maintain a medium to high speed and do not fall behind."

As time goes by and the scenery changes, the famous Tecos Tunnel comes into view.

Gu Tong took out a walkie-talkie to contact everyone. The four-person team had already been equipped with this thing, and the two extra ones were just enough for Ma Yucheng and Chen Liang to use temporarily.

"receive!"

Everyone responded on the walkie-talkie, including Ma Yucheng and Chen Liang.

This trip had a particularly profound impact on Ma Yucheng. The four-person group might not seem like much, but when you were actually with them, you could feel their strong sense of teamwork and discipline.

Gu Tong is undoubtedly the soul of the entire group; his words are orders, and everyone will obey them without hesitation.

Even during Honghe's most glorious era, Tang Guoxing could not achieve this.

Soon after, fans noticed the change in lighting; although there were lights in the tunnel, the scene suddenly darkened.

Six harvesters entered the tunnel one after another. The tunnel was very long, and the dim environment gradually quieted everyone down.

The atmosphere in the live stream was somewhat subdued, yet everyone was filled with anticipation.

Just as everyone was starting to get a little impatient, the scene suddenly opened up, and bright light pierced their eyes, revealing an endless grassland before them.

The outline of Tekos County is faintly visible, and the roadside grass is no longer withered yellow but yellowish-green.

"We've arrived in Tekos! Thank you all for accompanying us on this journey. We have some coordination work to do next, so that concludes this live stream. See you tomorrow, everyone!"

Gu Tong stopped the live stream at the right time and then focused on driving.

Before long, the convoy arrived at a small town on the outskirts of Tekos County, and Dong Jun immediately contacted the contact person.

"Thank you all for your hard work! I am very grateful for your support. I am Chen Shuyong from the County Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau, and I am specifically responsible for coordinating and coordinating this harvesting operation."

Chen Shuyong is very young, probably around 25 years old, but he is very reliable in his words and deeds.

He first identified himself, then led everyone to a hotel in town and arranged accommodations for each person.

The first thing Gu Tong did after entering the house was to call Gu Lixian's uncle and express his gratitude repeatedly.

Don't think that Dong Jun and Ma Dongwen won the big harvesting service order easily; in fact, it was all arranged by others behind the scenes.

"Uncle Erken, thank you so much for your help this time. Are you free tonight? I'd like to invite you to dinner."

"Gu Tong, I've heard Gu Lixian mention you a lot, and I've actually been wanting to meet you for a while. But let's skip the meal; the county has put me in charge of the entire harvest, and I need to avoid any appearance of impropriety. I'll find another opportunity to meet you next time I go to Nasu."

Gulixian's uncle declined Gu Tong's invitation, and it was clear that he was quite disappointed.

Gu Tong immediately realized that the other party was probably a leader from the local Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau, and it was normal to need to avoid certain things.

"Okay, I look forward to meeting you in Nassau."

"Yes, just tell Chen Shuyong if you need anything."

The two quickly ended the call, and Gu Tong went out of the room to find Chen Shuyong and began to check the harvested area on the agreement.

After checking everything, everyone ate noodles at a small restaurant outside, and then followed Chen Shuyong to the homes of several wealthy families for final confirmation.

To be honest, without Chen Shuyong's coordination, these things would have been really troublesome.

evening.

Gu Tong and five others gathered together, eating dinner while discussing tomorrow's homework plan.

"Today, Chen and I confirmed all the orders. Among them, 5000 mu of Shousu will be used to make silage, so we'll leave this part of the integrated operation to Brother Ma."

At this point, he glanced at Ma Yucheng, because only those who possess large-scale integrated silage harvesters can achieve this.

Ma Yucheng nodded and said, "Leave it to me, I promise I won't hold you back."

"The remaining 5000 mu of alfalfa needs to be harvested for hay, and the other five machines will work together. Next, I will talk about the price and allocation method for this harvest operation."

Brother Ma's integrated silage harvester costs 120 yuan per mu (approximately 0.16 acres), which you receive in full, but the team will take a 20% management fee. For the remaining 5000 mu (approximately 825 acres) of hay harvesting, the fee is 100 yuan per mu.

Chen Liang's machine is charged based on the area worked, and the team also receives a 20% management fee. Brother Ma will pay Chen Liang's wages. Do you have any other questions?

Gu Tong then explained in detail the harvesting methods, fee standards, and allocation plan for the 1 mu of first-time settlement land.

Dong Jun, Ma Dongwen, and Ai Kebai naturally had no objections, and Ma Yucheng thought about it and also expressed his agreement.

To be honest, Gu Tong's distribution ratio to Ma Yucheng was already very generous. If he was still not satisfied, it would be difficult to continue cooperating in the future.

"That's settled then. After you finish eating, get some rest. We'll meet at 7 a.m. tomorrow and then we'll start our homework."

Seeing that there were no objections, Gu Tong began to eat with her head down.

After eating and drinking their fill, the group returned to their rooms to prepare for the upcoming harvest of the 10,000 mu of alfalfa.

The next morning.

Gu Tong and the others drove the harvesters to the edge of the field. The six steel monsters were placed on the boundless grassland, looking like toy cars scattered on the ground, not eye-catching at all.

He then arranged the work route, adjusted the various camera positions, and immediately started the live broadcast.

"Good morning, everyone. Today we're harvesting 10,000 mu of alfalfa fields. Six harvesters will be working together; it's sure to be a spectacular sight. Without further ado, let's get started!"

After a brief opening, Gu Tong got into the car.

At his command, six harvesters plunged into the alfalfa field, their roar echoing in all directions and startling a flock of birds in the distance.

It was too early, and there weren't many people in the live stream, but the scene still drew gasps of surprise.
