Quick Transmigration: I Actually Became a System Bug

After receiving approval for their leave, Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu happily returned to the educated youth settlement and had a good night's sleep. However, the brigade leader went straight to the brigade accountant's house, pulled him out of bed, and spent the whole night doing accounts.

The next morning, as soon as the gate to the educated youth settlement opened, Sun Guofu was met with two rough faces with large dark circles under their eyes.

"Captain, Accountant, why are you here so early? Is there something you need to tell us?"

The captain wasn't in the mood to worry about his image at the moment.

"Sun Zhiqing, is Shi Zhiqing awake yet? I need to talk to him about something, could you please wake him up for me?"

Shi Shaoyu was definitely not awake yet. After all, he was too tired from the summer harvest the past two days, and he took the day off today, so he was bound to sleep in. Who knew he would be blocked and woken up early in the morning!

Shi Shaoyu yawned widely and rubbed his eyes as he walked to the front door.

"Captain, Accountant, Sun Zhiqing said you wanted to see me?"

“Ah, yes, yes, come on, Shi Zhiqing, let’s go over there and talk.”

As he spoke, Shi Shaoyu was staggered and pulled to a corner by the captain.

"Shi Zhiqing, that tractor you mentioned yesterday, did you say how much it cost beforehand?"

"Well, my uncle said the cost is 1,800, but I don't know how the shipping costs will be calculated."

Upon hearing the price, the team leader and the accountant exchanged a glance. Although it still stung, the price was still within their acceptable range. As for the shipping costs, they could afford them.

"Alright, alright, Shi Zhiqing, go make a call later and do your best to get this tractor back to our Zhangzhuang Brigade. If you can handle this matter well, I will do my best to fulfill any further requests you may have."

The three of them chatted on about who would drive the tractor once it was delivered. Zhangzhuang Brigade didn't have a tractor, nor a tractor driver. Fortunately, this problem was easy to solve. The brigade leader would hold a meeting to elect someone, and the elected person would discuss with the commune and have someone go to the agricultural machinery station for training.

This is not something Shi Shaoyu cares about; in any case, he will not compete for the tractor driver position.

After the captain left, Shi Shaoyu greeted Du Guowei and, together with Ji Han beside him, happily drifted off to sleep. By the time the two of them were too hungry to sleep, it was almost noon.

To avoid the awkward situation of being cornered on their bed by the team leader who was finishing work at noon, the two quickly packed up and headed back to the commune.

They certainly didn't need to make a phone call, but they still went to the post office as a formality, bought some stamps, and then went into the state-run restaurant not far away.

Braised pork belly and lamb chops were all unavailable, so Ji Han could only order the two meat dishes: pickled cabbage and pork ribs and braised carp with scallions. He also added an egg drop soup, and the staple food was steamed buns made from a mixture of wheat and vegetables.

After the two of them had eaten and drunk their fill, they bought a few extra large steamed buns, wrapped them up, and saved them for dinner. Then they headed to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The two of them sorted out the tickets they had brought. Well, actually, it was mainly Ji Han who sorted out the tickets he had. According to the types and expiration dates on them, they bought almost everything that they could buy with the tickets.

The two even complained that they had too much stuff and the road was too far, so they simply bought the only two bicycles in the supply and marketing cooperative. Of course, the bicycle tickets were purchased from the system space.

After their shopping spree, the task bar, which had been largely untouched, finally showed a new progress, though this progress was almost negligible given the massive scale of one billion.

Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu returned to the educated youth settlement ahead of time, just as they finished work. As soon as they had tidied up their things in the house, the whistle signaling the end of work sounded outside, along with the sound of knocking on the door of the educated youth settlement.

When Shi Shaoyu opened the door, he saw the captain's anxious face. Fortunately, he wasn't the type to procrastinate, so he told the captain the result directly and told him to prepare the money in advance. The captain turned around with a silly grin and left, seemingly wanting to share his joy with the others.

"Shi Shaoyu, have we forgotten something?"

During dinner that evening, halfway through the meal, Ji Han suddenly thought of something.

"Forgot something?"

Shi Shaoyu was a little taken aback; just moments before, he had been discussing with Du Guowei the plans to go into the mountains after the summer harvest.

"The header for the harvester? The team leader probably hasn't ordered it from the agricultural machinery station yet, right?"

"What cutting platform?"

Du Guowei was the one who asked the questions. Anyway, the brigade leader would hold a meeting to explain things when the tractor was delivered, so there was nothing to hide now. Shi Shaoyu then told Du Guowei again about how he and Ji Han were able to get the tractor.

After hearing this, Du Guowei had only one thought: Is this what it means to be a child from a wealthy and powerful family? While he was still working hard and sweating profusely in the countryside, this person was able to get his hands on a large machine like a tractor and was even preparing to bring a harvester for mechanized wheat harvesting.

He wouldn't even dare to think about such a thing, let alone actually do it; he would never even dream of such a thing.

Du Guowei could only slowly adjust and digest his self-pity on his own. After quickly finishing their dinner, the two went to the brigade leader's house again. This time, they mainly talked about the harvesting platform. Ideally, the brigade leader would also get approval for the harvesting platform once the tractor arrived. At least that way, they could contribute to this year's summer harvest.

Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu placed the order for the tractor in the system that very evening, and a logistics information was automatically generated. The place of shipment was indeed Heilongjiang Province, which Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu had mentioned, but the sender's name was not listed in detail.

The tractor hadn't arrived yet, so the next day Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu had to continue working, but their job changed from going to the fields to going to the threshing ground with a bunch of old people and children to chase sparrows and watch over the wheat.

Today, the brigade leader was the first person in all his years as brigade leader to take leave during the summer harvest. He went to the commune and the county town. Before everyone finished work, they saw the brigade leader's old face, which was all smiles. They knew without a doubt that something good must have happened for him to take leave today.

"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat..."

The tractor arrived at the brigade much faster than the brigade leader had expected. The brand-new tractor drove through the village's farmland toward the village entrance, and the eyes of everyone in the fields followed it.

"Wow!"

"What's that! A tractor! A brand new, perfectly sturdy tractor!"

"Look, it's the battalion commander! The battalion commander is chasing after that tractor!"

"Who's that behind us? Those two educated youths who are always slacking off? What are they doing? Aren't they going to work?"

"Tch, why do you care about them? Those two are obviously rich. Take it or leave it. They won't go hungry, but if we don't work, we'll really go hungry."

"Yeah, but I wonder what that tractor is doing in our village?"
