Chen Wenchuan did not lie to Li Yuan. This engineering team is indeed very formal and considerate of customers. In order to put the vegetable base into operation as soon as possible, the engineering team sent two teams at the same time. One road is dedicated to the drip irrigation system, and the other road is used to build vegetable greenhouses.
Regardless of the popularity of Li Yuan's vegetables, he is actually a complete layman in vegetable cultivation, and he knows nothing about professional equipment such as vegetable greenhouses and drip irrigation systems. Fortunately, Li Yuan had obtained the support of Chen Wenchuan in advance, and all the construction work was supervised by the old village chief, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Just a few days after the construction work started, Chen Wenchuan pointed out several problems and insisted that the engineering team rework or replace materials.
In fact, the problems Chen Wenchuan pointed out are, strictly speaking, very small flaws, and even if they are not corrected, they will have no effect on the quality of the project. But the old village head is a person who can't rub the sand in his eyes. Since he promised Li Yuan to watch for him, he will definitely do a good job in this matter.
For this reason, the boss of the engineering team also complained to Li Yuan several times, saying that Village Chief Chen was too serious. Already several places have been reworked, making the project unprofitable.
Of course, Li Yuan knew that Chen Wenchuan's careful supervision of the quality of the project would only benefit him and not harm him. So he chose to support Chen Wenchuan without hesitation, and told the boss of the engineering team clearly that Village Chief Chen was the project supervisor entrusted by him, and he had the right to manage all matters on the construction site.
With the title of "engineering supervisor", Chen Wenchuan's work enthusiasm is even higher. Almost every day when the construction team started construction, he wandered around, and the old man would go home contentedly until the construction team got off work.
Fortunately, Ningxia Village was originally a small village, and most of the young people had gone out to work, so there was nothing for Chen Wenchuan to worry about in the village. Otherwise, he, the village head, would be so "not doing his job properly", and the village would have been messed up long ago.
With Chen Wenchuan as the "engineering supervisor", Li Yuan will be much more relaxed. Of course, as the owner of the vegetable base, it is impossible for him to be the shopkeeper completely. With Chen Wenchuan overseeing the quality of the project, Li Yuan can concentrate on designing the reservoir for the drip irrigation system.
In fact, the drip irrigation system does not need a reservoir, but for the convenience of adding gold beads to the water in the vegetable field, the reservoir is essential. Of course, Li Yuan explained to the outside world that it is necessary to use a reservoir to adjust the water temperature so as not to affect the growth of vegetables.
Li Yuan observed the vegetable garden for several days, and finally chose the location of the reservoir at the foot of Yuetang Mountain. This is the highest point of the entire vegetable base. The reservoir is built here, and the entire vegetable base can be irrigated without a pump.
However, the boss of the engineering team was a little dissatisfied with Li Yuan's choice of position. Because the terrain here is high and rugged. To build a reservoir with a size that meets Li Yuan's requirements, not only does a lot of moving work need to be done, but also the foundation must be leveled. The amount of work is not ordinary.
Of course, Li Yuan also knew that building a reservoir in this place was a bit embarrassing for the engineering team. For this reason, he "generously" added 20,000 yuan to the other party's construction fee, and settled the matter.
In fact, the 20,000 yuan added by Li Yuan was barely enough for the extra labor and material costs. But seeing that he had already given a large project worth hundreds of thousands, the construction team boss reluctantly agreed.
After Li Yuan and the boss of the construction team determined the construction requirements of the reservoir, the following workers and Chen Wenchuan were responsible for the next work.
Under the supervision of Chen Wenchuan, the progress of the project is not slow. Only a week later, the pipes of the drip irrigation system have been completed, and the next step is to start building the water storage tank at the foot of the mountain. As for the vegetable greenhouse, the area of more than 20 mu has been completed. According to the boss of the engineering team, it will be completed in ten days or so. At that time, the reservoir of the drip irrigation system should also be available, and the vegetable base will be officially put into operation.
Li Yuan is also very busy these days. In addition to going to the vegetable base every day to care about the construction situation, he also has to take care of the vegetable garden in the village in the city. After all, vegetable cultivation requires a certain cycle. If the vegetables grown in the vegetable base can still be supplied to current customers before they go on the market, the vegetable garden cannot give up.
It is also thanks to Li Yuan's body has been significantly strengthened after getting the peach pit, so that he can maintain a lot of energy in such a busy situation. If he was still as thin as before, under such high-intensity busyness, his body might have collapsed long ago.
Time flies, and ten or so hours have passed in a blink of an eye. This day is definitely a big day for Li Yuan, the project of the vegetable base has officially ended. The vegetable base, which has almost used up all of Li Yuan's property, can finally be officially operated.
Li Yuan, who was practical, didn't hold any ceremony. He just invited Chen Wenchuan and the boss of the engineering team, who had helped a lot, to a restaurant in a nearby town for a meal.
At the dinner table, Li Yuan thanked Chen Wenchuan repeatedly, and at the same time expressed his satisfaction with the work of the boss of the engineering team—in fact, Li Yuan couldn’t help but be satisfied too. Under Chen Wenchuan’s supervision, all the facilities were built so firmly that they could be used as vegetables. The prototype of the base is up.
After drinking for three rounds, Chen Wenchuan talked more, and asked Li Yuan with a smile: "Xiao Li, everyone is so familiar with me, I won't go around the bush if there is anything, I will tell you straight. Even if you only plant The 50 acres of land with greenhouses can’t be done by one person alone, do you have any plans in this regard?”
Hearing Chen Wenchuan's words, Li Yuan couldn't help laughing, poured wine for the old village head and said, "Chan Chief, we've thought of going together. I'm going to discuss this matter with you. So many places It is definitely not enough to rely on me alone, do you think I can ask a few villagers in Ningxia Village to help?"
Chen Wenchuan nodded immediately and said: "No problem at all! There are many villagers in their fifties in the village. They are too old to go out to work and no one wants them, so they can only stay in the village. Don't look at them. You're an expert. I'll find some good hands for you tomorrow, and just leave all the work in the field to them!"
Li Yuan smiled and said, "Then I will trouble you, Village Chief Chen. Since I contracted the land, you have really helped me a lot. Thank you very much."
"We are already neighbors, so please don't say such polite words." Chen Wenchuan said with a smile: "You have contracted this land, which has increased the village's income, and now you have to hire villagers to work. It's also a good thing, if I don't help you, who will I help?"
Although Chen Wenchuan said so, Li Yuan still appreciated his affection, and asked the upright old village head with a smile: "Cun Chief Chen, are you interested in coming to my vegetable base as a consultant?"
