"You are such a boaster. You have a big mouth on your face and you can brag whatever you want." Ma Yuancai teased.

Zhou Qi exhaled a puff of smoke, narrowed his eyes and asked, "What if you are not convinced?"

"Submit? I don't submit at all!" Ma Yuan rolled his eyes.

"Okay, how about we make a bet?" Zhou Qi suggested.

"What are you betting on?" Ma Yuancai asked curiously.

"Reciting poems and composing essays!" Zhou Qi answered with a smile.

Ma Yuancai almost laughed himself into a choke, "Okay, this is the style, perfect, then what should we chant? 'The moonlight shines brightly in front of the bed, it looks like frost on the ground; I look up at the moon, I think of my hometown'? No, no, it should be 'The moonlight shines brightly in front of the bed, my skin is as white as frost; I look up at the moon, I take off my pants'?"

"Oh my god, you are the reincarnation of the immortal poet!" Zhou Qi clapped his hands in admiration, "The scene is already appearing in front of my eyes."

"Do you dare to do that in front of all the employees in the factory?" Ma Yuancai asked provocatively.

Think about Ma Guangping, the stubborn old man.

I went there twice and still couldn't get it done. Zhou Qi's bragging skills have nothing to do with this matter, so how could he possibly get it done?

A sure win!

"Are you sure?" Zhou Qi confirmed again.

"You think it's too little? If you think it's too little, I'll add another one." Ma Yuancai said, "Listen carefully, 'From a distance, I look like a little brother, but when I look closely, I look even smaller; my little brother is really not little, he is really a little brother.'"

"And, and."

“When you look at the white rabbit from a distance, you will see that it is even bigger. The white rabbit is indeed big, and it is indeed a big white rabbit!”

Zhou Qi was smoking and almost choked.

"Cough cough cough."

Zhou Qi gave Ma Yuancai a thumbs up and said, "You are amazing. Putting aside other things, just these three poems, if you post them, you will definitely get a lot of likes."

“What is a like?”

"Then tell me first, what is a pair of big white rabbits, no, a big white rabbit?"

"Go to hell, we are all children of the underworld, why are you pretending to be serious in front of me." Ma Yuancai glanced at Zhou Qi, "Three poems, recite them quickly while the people are still here, you have to go back to the factory and recite them loudly later, don't get scared when the time comes and say you forgot."

Zhou Qi nodded in agreement, "I won't forget. Even if you forget, I can remind you."

Ma Yuancai curled his lips and crossed his legs, "I'll let you be proud for a while, but don't beg me. If you are a man, you must keep your word. Whoever gives in first is not a man."

Forty minutes passed in a flash, and Ma Guangping ran back in a hurry, as anxious as an ant on hot pan.

"Mr. Zhou, everything has been done. Here is the list." Ma Guangping panted and handed Zhou Qi a piece of paper full of names.

"Hey, there are so many people here." Zhou Qi took a look and said in surprise.

"Didn't you say that we still need to interview and select, so I called a few more people. This is such a good opportunity. If there are suitable people in the village, of course we have to let them try their luck.

However, Mr. Zhou, don't worry, these people are of good character. We have lived in the same village for many years, and we know each other well. They are absolutely reliable." Ma Guangping patted his chest and promised.

"Okay, okay, Leader Ma, you really take the trouble." Zhou Qi said gratefully.

"No, no," Ma Guangping laughed, "Everyone is looking forward to working in your company as soon as possible. They are all very anxious and keep asking me when the interview will be. Oh, I was in a hurry just now and forgot to ask the specific time. I have to reply to everyone later."

"Oh, the specific time, it really takes time, it will be soon." Zhou Qi said with a smile: "Actually, Leader Ma, I am also waiting for news. The company is busy expanding its business and the procedures for the new factory are being processed, so the interview time depends on the situation of the new factory."

Upon hearing this, Ma Guangping's smile froze, "Boss Zhou, is the new factory you mentioned in our village?"

"Yes, it's in your village, the Chaohui Foundry." Zhou Qi said with a smile, "This way it will be convenient for the villagers to go to get off work, right?"

When Ma Guangping heard this, he slammed the table in anger, and even the water cup on the table jumped in fear, "You two came here today to tease me, right?"

As a result, Ma Yuancai was not angry at all, but was happy instead. "Look, I told you that you can't do it, but you still don't admit it. You're sure to win!"

Zhou Qi looked at Ma Guangping innocently and said, "Leader Ma, what's going on? Could it be that someone else has taken over the Chaohui Foundry first? This is really troublesome. You asked the villagers to sign and gave them hope.

If I can't open the factory, they won't be able to work. From hope to despair, this gap is too much for most people to bear. Doesn't this mean that you have lost your credibility and let the villagers down? How can you survive in the village in the future? "

Ma Guangping's face instantly turned darker than the bottom of a pot, because he was thinking about running for village chief. The election was about to begin, and if something went wrong at this time, what would the point of running for election be?

Zhou Qi saw it clearly and pretended to be dumb and said, "No, Leader Ma, you must have heard it wrong. We have already submitted an application to the county. If the notice you received is from us, it is most likely us..."

"Otherwise I wouldn't have come to the village to recruit workers today!" He continued, "Don't worry, I have a phone number here, you can call the county to verify, it must be us who want to rent the factory."

He said as he picked up the phone, but there was no way Zhou Qi would let him make the call.

Ma Guangping was stunned when he heard this: "You submitted an application to the county?"

"Of course. It's been a while now. I estimate it will be approved soon. Although our Pinliang Shop has just started out, it has become a designated enterprise. In addition, we help the rural economy, so the county has high hopes for us." Zhou Qi explained.

Ma Yuancai was watching from the side, feeling very nervous. Zhou Qi's rambling was pure nonsense, but every word he said was like a bombshell, making people tremble with fear.

He was feeling mixed emotions at the moment. On the one hand, he hoped Zhou Qi could deal with Ma Guangping so that he could also make some money.

But on the other hand, when he thought that Zhou Qi actually used his poems to write an article, he felt so upset that he wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

"You came here today mainly for the foundry, right?" Ma Guangping finally understood everything. At this point, he was not a fool. After thinking about it, everything became clear to him.

"Leader Ma, I don't know how the foundry offended you, but you are going too far by saying that."

Zhou Qi's face also turned serious. "I asked you to call to confirm, but you refused. Besides, this factory is not yours. Whether the county approves it or not is their business. What does it have to do with you? I didn't ask you for help or anything, but you sounded like I was trying to trick you."

"Forget it, at worst I won't recruit people in this village."

"If they come knocking on my door, don't blame me for speaking frankly."

This barrage of criticism made Ma Guangping's face turn pale. How did he become such an unlucky guy who was neither popular nor appreciated?
