Li Fei stood on a high place, looked around the audience, clapped his hands vigorously, and said loudly: "Fellow folks, please calm down and listen to what I have to say."
Everyone immediately fell silent and looked at him curiously to see what kind of flower he could tell.
At this moment, Li Fei suddenly saw a familiar figure walking over from a distance, with a curious look on his face.
This person is none other than Shen Qiuyue, the first village official who came just yesterday.
Today she was wearing a white shirt and a pair of thin black trousers. The hem of the shirt was tucked into the trousers. Her slender waist and plump and wide hips formed a sharp contrast, revealing her graceful and tall figure.
Li Fei couldn't help but take a sip of saliva, then he looked away, coughed, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Dear fellow villagers, my melon field has had a great harvest this year. This is the result of a year's hard work of my parents. Our watermelons are selling very well, and everyone has seen it. I just transported a few carts of watermelons in the morning, and they were sold out immediately. Now the supply exceeds demand in the market, so I bought so many tricycles specifically to transport my watermelons. watermelon!"
"Now I have a total of eight vehicles. We have three people here and we are still short of five drivers. I won't say more. It costs one hundred yuan per vehicle. Who will drive a tricycle to sign up for me and help me? If you drive a car to transport watermelons, I will pay you for each truckload, and I will never default!"
"But I have a requirement. It must be able to keep up with our speed, and there must be no damage during the process. If you break a watermelon, you will be compensated ten yuan. It's that simple. Whoever wants to come can come and sign up with me!"
At this moment, everyone immediately became excited. Everyone would see that it only took Li Fei more than two hours to transport the watermelon there and back. It was obvious that he had transported the watermelon to the county town. It took him more than two hours to transport the watermelon. Earning one hundred yuan is such a good thing that you can't even find it in this lantern. You can use it at least four or five times a day, which is four to five hundred yuan. Even if two people use one car, it is still cost-effective.
So they didn't hesitate much and immediately rushed to Li Fei to sign up.
"Xiao Fei, choose me, choose me. I can drive a tricycle, I have a lot of strength, and I will work very hard!"
Butcher Zhang, who was in his forties, was the first to squeeze out of the crowd. He was tall, tall, and bearded. He was a butcher in the past. No one dared to compete with him.
As he spoke, he occupied a car carelessly, sat in the cab and looked left and right, as if the car already belonged to him.
Uncle Liu also squeezed out from the crowd and said angrily: "Xiao Fei, give me one too. I can also drive. I have driven a tractor before and I am very stable when driving a tricycle. I am better than them all!" As he said that, he took the lead and got on a tricycle, touching it left and right, with a look of joy on his face.
Sister-in-law Wang quickly said: "I want it too, Xiaofei, but don't forget that we are still relatives. Your cousin's in-laws are my cousin's daughter-in-law, so the wealth should not go to outsiders!"
As they spoke, they scrambled to grab three cars. The remaining people immediately gave up and quickly grabbed the other remaining cars. All of a sudden, people were jumping up and down.
Li Fei frowned and coughed heavily. He hid his inner strength with this sound, and there was a deafening rumbling sound in the sky. Everyone was so surprised that they stopped what they were doing and looked at him blankly.
Even Shen Qiuyue, who was watching the excitement from the outside of the crowd, was slightly surprised and looked straight at Li Fei.
Li Fei glanced at the audience and said calmly: "Fellow folks, there are so many of you, I only have these five cars, and everyone is going to grab them. In the end, no one will get this job. I don't care who you are. What does it have to do with me? I would like to make a fair suggestion: draw lots. Anyone who can drive a tricycle is eligible to participate in the draw!"
Drawing lots has always been a fair and reasonable way to resolve disputes. Except for the two or three people who have already grabbed three cars, no one disagrees.
Li Fei looked at Butcher Zhang coldly. He was a tough guy with the highest martial arts in the village. Although he didn't usually hang out with Niu Dabao and the others, he was a bit domineering in his behavior.
At this moment, he occupied three cars and was unwilling to leave. Li Fei said, "What did Brother Zhang say?"
His eyes were stern, and as he spoke, he walked up to him.
Butcher Zhang glanced at him, and finally swallowed a mouthful of saliva. After much hesitation, he got off the tricycle and muttered to himself: "It's really unfair. I already grabbed it and I have to participate in the drawing of lots!"
Li Fei smiled at him and patted his shoulder: "It's okay, Brother Zhang. Even if you don't get it this time, there will be more opportunities in the future. Don't worry!"
Soon after, enthusiastic villagers had prepared the things for drawing lots. Li Fei selected five drivers in this way. The whole process was fair and reasonable. No one raised any doubts.
Li Fei didn't waste much time and immediately led the convoy towards his melon field.
Curious villagers also followed in large numbers.
When they arrived at their destination, Li Fei suddenly found that his parents had gotten a cart of wood from somewhere and were building a melon shed near the melon field.
Li Fei looked at his father and asked curiously: "Dad, what are you doing?"
Li Changqing looked at him and said seriously: "My child, our melon field is growing so well. No one knew it before, but now it must be spread, so that people in the village will not covet and steal our melons. From today on, I will do it every night I’m sleeping here to guard the melon field!”
Xia Changyin also said quickly: "Yes, yes, our family finally encountered such good luck, but we must keep these good fortunes. Your father will watch here at night, and I will come to pick him up during the day. , our family is very busy these days!”
Li Fei sighed in his heart, it was the old man's thoughtfulness, but it just hurt the two old men, and the conditions in the melon field were definitely not as good as at home.
He couldn't help but sigh softly, and said to Li Changqing: "Dad, I'll come and see the melon patch at night. You and mom can come and watch it during the day."
"How can that be done? You are a young man and you have to grow taller. You should have a good rest at night!" Li Changqing shook his head repeatedly.
Li Fei laughed dumbly: "Dad, I'm already in my early twenties, what kind of body do I still have? No need to say anymore, I'll come tonight!"
Li Fei had a straight face and a firm attitude, and took over the task of guarding the melon field at night. The old couple had no choice but to agree to him. The child had been stubborn since he was a child. They could not change what he decided, not even nine cows could pull him. return.
From a distance, Shen Qiuyue, who was following, also saw this scene, and nodded secretly to Li Fei, thinking that this was really a filial child.
