Therefore, Wang Yougui wrote down the terms of the bet between the two parties. Finally, he signed it and handed it to Sun Youqian.
Sun Youqian looked at Wang Yougui, who appeared to be prepared for everything. He immediately felt a little uneasy when he signed the contract so decisively. Could this be a trap? But looking at the terms carefully, there didn't seem to be any loopholes.
"Why, Manager Sun? You don't wish to sign it?" Wang Yougui asked when he saw Sun Youqian's hesitation.
Sun Youqian had been bragging all day. If he didn't sign it now, he would be too ashamed to return. He looked at his huge machine and then at the idiot-like monk, as well as the bunch of bumpkins. He thought to himself, "I don't believe my machine can't beat them!"
Hence, Sun Youqian said, "I have a request. Both sides will harvest at the same time. The time limit is one hour. Whoever harvests the largest area wins! Also, the machine must be operated by me and Jiang Chaowei! Also, add five kilograms of top-grade Frost Bamboo shoots into the wager! "
When Dog Song and the others heard this, their hearts immediately trembled. Originally, when Wang Yougui was signing the contract, they were still thinking of asking Yang Hua to secretly go easy on him. Now it seemed that the other party was very shrewd and had thought of this. With this, even Dog Song and company did not know what their chances of winning were. As for the Frost Bamboo shoot, no one was worried. As long as they asked for it, Fangzheng would definitely give it to them. It was just that they were unwilling to lose!
In the end, Wang Yougui actually went against everyone's pressure and nodded in agreement!
Dog Song and the others covered their faces. They couldn't bear to watch anymore. They couldn't understand why Wang Yougui, who had always been smart, would make such a mistake. If they didn't know Wang Yougui too well, they might even suspect that Wang Yougui had colluded with the other party to scam their village's property …
When Sun Youqian saw Wang Yougui nod, he decisively added the two conditions. Then, he laughed out loud and signed his name!
At this point, the contract was formed!
Sun Youqian looked up and said with a smile, "Village Chief Wang, it's best you return and prepare the money! Even a skilled worker could harvest one mu of rice in a day, at most one and a half mu. When I said two mu of rice, I was giving them some leeway. But this machine of mine, working on this kind of flat land, a hundred mu a day is not a problem! You're definitely going to lose! "
Sun Youqian looked at Wang Yougui, hoping to see a joke.
In the end, Wang Yougui snatched the contract from him and handed it to Tan Juguo. Then, he laughed out loud and said, "Manager Sun, what you said makes sense. However, how do you know who will win or lose without competing?"
"Is there even a need to compete?" Sun Youqian was stunned. He had no idea what Wang Yougui was up to.
"Master, what did you tell Benefactor Wang Yougui? Why is he so happy? Don't tell me you want me to use my divine art? If I were to use mystic arts, I would be able to settle this in seconds. "Red Boy asked curiously.
Monkey and Lone Wolf also came over.
Fangzheng smiled. "This time, I won't be using your divine powers. Instead, I'll be using the divine powers of mortals!"
"A mortal's divine power?" Red Boy was stunned. Did mortals have divine powers? Does it know any divine powers? Red Boy suddenly thought of something. A mortal's divine ability? Fangzheng had used it before!
With this in mind, Red Boy laughed. Monkey laughed as well. Lone Wolf grinned. "I knew it. Master definitely wouldn't suffer. Haha … Someone's going to be his underwear!"
Dong!
Fangzheng raised his hand and struck him. "Be more civilized!"
"Alright, haha … Someone's going to be his underwear!" Red Boy nodded obediently before continuing laughing.
Fangzheng: "…"
Sun Youqian watched Wang Yougui leave and informed him that the competition would begin in an hour!
Sun Youqian smiled. "Alright, I'll wait for you!"
A few minutes later, Dog Song received a message. "Aiyah, the sow at home is throwing a tantrum. I'll be leaving first."
"My hen has laid eggs. Mengmeng, let's go home." Sun Qiancheng left.
"I have to return to feed the chickens." Another person left.
Sun Youqian thought nothing of it. All he cared about was the outcome of the competition. As for these people, they could leave if they wanted to!
An hour later, Wang Yougui returned, panting and covered in sweat.
"Village Chief Wang, shall we begin?" Sun Youqian could no longer wait. The opportunity to earn money was here!
"Alright, let's begin!" Wang Youqian nodded and looked at Fangzheng.
Sun Youqian also looked in Fangzheng's direction and saw him holding a sickle in preparation to harvest.
Zhou Zishan and company weren't aware that Fangzheng was participating in a bigger bet. They thought nothing of it when they saw Fangzheng come over again. All they wanted was to do more to prove their worth, to prove that they weren't freeloaders.
Sun Youqian looked at them and smiled. "I realize that I'm too cruel. Haha … But I like the feeling of being crushed! Little Jiang, prepare to start work! "
Sun Youqian shouted. Jiang Chaowei wore a look of excitement as well. In a blink of an eye, he was going to earn double the money. He was going to make a killing! Happy!
Just as Jiang Chaowei was about to start the machine, he looked up and was instantly stunned! He pointed into the distance and shouted. "Manager, look!"
Sun Youqian scolded jokingly. "Look my ass! Drive. I'm going to crush them! "
Although he said that, Sun Youqian still subconsciously looked over and was dumbfounded!
He saw a large group of villagers brandishing sickles as they charged into the paddy fields. Then, they brandished their sickles and harvested large swaths of paddy! In just a minute, a large swath had been harvested!
Sun Youqian saw that the villagers who had just left were among them!
Sun Youqian looked angrily at Wang Yougui.
Wang Yougui threw up his hands and said innocently, "Patron, you only said that the machines would be competing with humans, but you didn't say how many humans it would be! Of course, we didn't limit the number of machines you can bring. You can call your friends now and drive more machines over. "
Sun Youqian nearly choked when he heard that. He nearly vomited a mouthful of blood. Get machines over? Ignoring the fact that the combined harvester couldn't run fast, even with a tow truck, it would take an hour to travel from Songwu County to One Finger Village! Even at the fastest speed, it would take about thirty to forty minutes. There was also the time it took to load and unload the harvester! It wouldn't even take an hour! By the time the other machines arrived, it would be too late.
With this in mind, Sun Youqian looked at the villagers in the river. He roughly counted them. There were more than a hundred people! If twelve people could harvest an acre in an hour, more than a hundred people could harvest about ten acres! His machine could harvest about a hundred acres a day, but that was the efficiency of twelve hours of work during the day. That also meant that he could harvest ten acres in an hour!
Furthermore, from the number of villagers, there were less than a hundred and twenty people. If the machine were to be driven faster …
Sun Youqian rekindled his hope as he cursed. "Little Jiang, what's there to see!? Drive! Turn it on! Turn it to maximum power! I want them to understand that humans can never beat machines! "
"Alright!" Jiang Chaowei did the math and realized that he still had a high chance of winning.
Zhou Zishan and company were working when they suddenly heard the sound of feet stepping on the mud. When they turned their heads, they were given a fright! They saw a group of villagers brandishing sickles as they charged over. If not for their smiles, Zhou Zishan and company would have imagined that they had encountered a gang battle.
"Amitabha. Patron, don't panic. They are here to help," said Fangzheng.
"Bro, don't be nervous. As long as we work for you, you can take whatever money you deserve! We will do our best and screw that machine! Everyone, let's do it! "Chen Jin said with a smile.
Zhou Zishan felt his heart warm up when he heard that. Along the way, machines always enjoyed more attention and warmth than humans. As for them, they were always silently ignored. Zhou Zishan never imagined that there would be a day when a group of people would run over to fight alongside them! This scene made Zhou Zishan recall the scene of countless wheat hands rushing to the wheat fields in the past. A group of people would rush into the wheat fields and brandish their sickles as they sweated profusely. Amidst their laughter, they would conquer the endless wheat fields. That scene was still fresh in his mind. Unfortunately, things had changed with the passage of time. The comrades who had fought alongside him back then were no longer in this line of work.
Recalling the scene, Zhou Zishan worked even more efficiently and quickly. His face beamed with a youthful smile. At that moment, he felt like he had returned to the past, back to when he was young. He yearned to sweep the entire wheat field with a sickle.
It was the same for Zhou Ziyuan, Shen Aijia, and company. Only Zhou Ziheng had not caught up to that era, but he also felt that the more people there were, the livelier it would be. He worked even harder.
The little girl and boy, who had been running with Squirrel, were also squatting on a slope beside the river. They were watching the scene of a hundred people reaping the harvest with great interest. As they watched, they laughed.
At that moment, the rumbling of a motor was heard. Everyone's hearts tightened for they knew that the steel monster was coming!
Turning their heads, they saw Jiang Chaowei driving the harvester closer and closer. Wherever it passed, paddy after paddy would be harvested. Upon seeing this scene, everyone's hearts tightened. This machine was after all a machine. It was too fast!
Jiang Chaowei looked at the villagers and raised his head confidently. He laughed as though he was saying: "None of you can do it!"
"Master, I'm afraid your divine ability won't work. There aren't enough people. This machine is too fast. " Red Boy looked up and rubbed his nose. The mud on his hand covered his nose, and the more he rubbed, the dirtier it became.
Fangzheng shot a glance into the distance and said with a smile, "Then, I'll cast an even more powerful divine power!"
"What divine power?" asked Red Boy in surprise.
"Of course it's the Great Summoning Spell!" After Fangzheng said that, he looked in the direction of the village and saw a large group of villagers rushing over!
Red Boy said in astonishment, "He's not from One Finger Village?"
"Hongtang Village and a few other villages. I never expected Wang Yougui to gather so many people. From the looks of it, our village chief has quite the rallying power. Heh heh, "said Fangzheng with a smile.
However, Fangzheng did not know that Wang Yougui did not have that much rallying power. He had used Fangzheng's name to recruit people, but when he heard that Fangzheng was competing with others in the paddy reaping competition and that he needed manpower, he was stunned. In the end, everyone in the village who had nothing to do came!
