"How many more can I have? No more! Fifteen pounds, why don't you go and grab them?" Yu Qingyang said angrily.

"Boss Yu, the price is not high anymore!"

"Not high? Are you bullying me for not knowing the market? The best mutton on the market only costs ten yuan a pound!"

"Boss Yu, that's ordinary mutton, but this is authentic green goat!"

"I'm talking about green goat! Ordinary mutton only costs seven or eight yuan per pound!"

"Okay, Boss Yu, how much do you want it to be?"

"The live sheep are weighed for seven yuan a pound. You want to help us kill them, okay?"

"Boss Yu, this is too little! It doesn't even have enough time and money!"

"In a word, are you going to sell it or not?" Yu Qingyang asked, staring at Xiaomei's father.

If he hadn't interrupted nonsense and had no discernment, Yu Qingyang wouldn't have minded giving him a higher price.

"this……"

Xiaomei's father wanted to sell but didn't want to. He looked around, looking for someone to help him talk.

He knew that these people were big leaders and would not care about a few dollars with him.

This is also the cunningness of farmers!

"You don't have to go around making noises. Just say, do you want to sell it or not?"

"Brother Yu?"

"Brother Hua, the price I gave is not low anymore. When a sheep dealer comes to collect the sheep, the most I can give him is five yuan per catty!" Yu Qingyang explained.

This sentence was also explained to several big leaders of Mudan City.

It's not that I'm harsh on the people under your rule, it's that your people are greedy.

"Okay! How many do you want, Boss Yu?" In the end, Xiaomei's father chose to sell.

"Kill two first!

Brother Song, follow Lao Lu and weigh yourself and let him help fight out!" Yu Qingyang shouted to Brother Song, who was secretly watching from the side.

"Got it!" Brother Song agreed from a distance, and went directly to the sheep to choose the sheep.

…

Although Xiaomei's father is a bit cunning, his sheep are really good sheep.

I haven't been fed any feed at all, and all I eat is green feed.

The sheep raised in this way have delicate and tender meat.

The lamb is stewed in an earthen pot, and Yu Qingyang learned the lamb stew technique from others in his previous life.

There are no other aniseed ingredients such as peppercorns, star anise, or garlic, just some green onion, ginger, and a few cut tomatoes.

Of course, salt is definitely not missing.

This method of stewing mutton is said to be the method of stewing mutton over in nmg.

"Well, not bad! Brother Yu, this mutton is really good. It doesn't have any smell of mutton or aniseed. It tastes very fresh." Zhang Hua ate very deliciously and was full of praise.

During the lunch period, except for Zhang Hua who ate very deliciously, everyone else ate awkwardly just as Yu Qingyang thought.

Several big leaders were very friendly to the people, chatting with the workers constantly, asking them if they were tired from work, if they missed home, and if they had any difficulties in life.

After eating the mutton, Zhang Hua and Secretary Lin left quickly.

At noon the next day, Yu Qingyang took Brother Song to Mudan City Railway Station.

The people Yu Qingyang entrusted Brother Song to find have arrived, and they are here to pick him up from the station.

After a short wait, the train arrived at the station, and Brother Song went over to bring the person over.

"Little boss, this is my younger brother, and these guys are also from our village!

These are people from Yangzi Village!"

Brother Song pointed to the twelve young people he had brought over and introduced them to Yu Qingyang.

These are the people Yu Qingyang asked Brother Song and Brother Yang to find for him.

They are all half-grown children of sixteen or seventeen years old.

These half-grown children were apprentices recruited by Yu Qingyang to train excavator drivers.

In the next twenty years, there will be a lot of earthmoving projects for water conservancy. If you buy a few excavators, you don’t have to worry about running out of work.

It can be said to be a profitable investment project.

But drivers are hard to find, and Lanxiang Technical School is still the third-ranked company in the army.

It wasn't until next year that we broke away from the army and started recruiting students from outside.

Therefore, Yu Qingyang can only train his own drivers using other people's excavators. This deal is still very cost-effective!

You must know that apprentices do not need to be paid wages. They will only be paid after they graduate.

"Okay, you're all in good spirits! Thank you for your hard work, Brother Song!" Yu Qingyang nodded with satisfaction.

We found a minibus from the county and sent eight and a half-year-old children directly to the Hongwei River project.

Yu Qingyang is assigned two apprentices per excavator.

After sending eight apprentices to the Hongwei River project, Yu Qingyang treated all the excavator drivers and mechanics to a meal.

After eating, Yu Qingyang gave each of them a red envelope and asked them to take good care of their apprentices. When they started training, he would give them big red envelopes.

Anyway, the excavator is owned by the government and does not burn their oil. Yu Qingyang was so generous. They patted their chests and said they would teach them well and promise to train Yu Qingyang.

"Brother Yang, don't be reluctant to spend money. Since we want to learn crafts from others, we can't be stingy!

You have to keep an eye on them, make them work harder, and rush to do tasks like buttering and refueling!

Also, be sweeter and give more room for the master to light up the cigarette!" Before leaving, Yu Qingyang pulled Yang Ge aside and explained.

"Don't worry, little boss! I know it in my heart, and I will definitely let these guys learn the craft!" Brother Yang promised, patting his chest.

On the Hongwei River side, although Yu Qingyang does not have to take care of the work, everything is arranged by the project department, but there must be someone to keep an eye on things like refueling.

So he transferred Brother Yang to the Hongwei River and was responsible for refueling the excavators and taking care of the lives of these excavator drivers and mechanics.

As for things like refueling that involve money, why not use relatives?

hehe!

These days, relatives may not always be reliable!

Yu Qingyang has seen many construction sites, and the real victims are those relatives.

He's being tricked, and he's even more ruthless than outsiders!

Of course, Yu Qingyang really has no suitable relatives to use.

Although I have a few poor relatives, they are not very reliable.

But those cousins, it’s okay not to tell them.

It belongs to Adou who cannot be helped up.

After settling his apprenticeship, Yu Qingyang was not in a hurry to return to the Qingshui Lake construction site.

It’s been almost half a month since the excavator arrived, and this is Yu Qingyang’s second visit to the Hongweihe construction site.

Now that I'm here, it would be unreasonable both emotionally and rationally for me not to report to the project department.

Although Yu Qingyang drank a lot of wine at the banquet for the excavator masters in the evening, but with his current drinking capacity, these two or three kilograms of wine would not be a problem at all.

Just a little blushing.

Arrive at the project department location.

The living conditions on the Hongwei River side are better than those on the Qingshui Lake side.

What I rent is a semi-new yard.

As soon as you enter the main room, there are two people sitting on both sides of the Eight Immortals table.

On the left is a tall and burly middle-aged man with messy hair, red rosacea, and a sloppy beard. The collar of a half-sleeved shirt that is old and stale has been washed and stripped of hair.

This unkempt middle-aged man is the manager of the Earthwork Branch of the Provincial Water Resources Corporation and the project manager of the Hongwei River construction site, Manager Niu.

The person on the right is doing the work. Compared to Manager Niu, this old man is much more refined.

He has gray hair, meticulously combed, a snow-white short-sleeved shirt, and a Zeng Mingwaliang plum blossom watch on his left wrist, which is very conspicuous.

This is Vice President Liu from the Provincial Water Administration Bureau, sent by the company to support Manager Niu!

Yu Qingyang glanced at the door but did not go in.

There's a meeting going on inside.

He stood at the door, and everyone inside saw him. Manager Niu gestured to the room next to him, meaning to ask him to go to the room next to him and wait for a while.
