701 Fixing the Road, Crossing the Hill (1/2)
Wang Jianli sighed. He had to take them to Wang Yao's clinic.
”Had a fall?” Wang Yao asked.
”Yes,” Wang Jianli said.
”I see,” Wang Yao said.
He happened to finish seeing his patients and had nothing to do. They went together to the foot of Nanshan hill.
”Please wait here for me,” Wang Yao said.
”Why can't we go with you?” the surveyor asked.
”Would you allow strangers to enter your own house?” Wang Yao asked.
”But, this is just a hill,” one of the surveyors said.
”This is my hill,” Wang Yao coldly said.
The surveyors didn't know what to say. They watched Wang Yao walk up the hill through a small path among the trees.
”His hill? Bullsh*t!” one of the surveyors unhappily said.
”Exactly! How arrogant he is!” Another surveyor agreed.
On his way up the hill, Wang Yao bumped into San Xian, who brought something to him in his mouth.
”You took this off?” Wang Yao curiously asked.
Woof! Woof! San Xian barked toward the sky.
”You mean Daxia did it?” Wang Yao asked.
Woof!
What a coincidence! Wang Yao laughed. He had fantastic helpers on land and in the sky.
”Well done! Thank you so much!” Wang Yao patted San Xian's head with a smile. ”As for this one...” He took a look at the drone in his hand.
The surveyors had become impatient while waiting at the foot of Nanshan Hill.
”How come he's still not back?” a surveyor asked.
”I suppose he is still looking for the drone. Be patient,” Wang Jianli said.
”What do you think he has on the hill that he doesn't want people to see?” a surveyor asked.
”Must be something valuable, like wild ginseng or expensive plants,” another surveyor said.
They had waited for nearly one hour before Wang Yao came back with a drone.
”Is this the drone you've been looking for?” Wang Yao handed the drone to one of the surveyors.
”How… How come it is like this?” the surveyor asked in shock.
He was surprised to see that the drone had been completely damaged and couldn't be fixed.
”I found it among the rocks near the foot of the hill. Maybe it smashed onto a rock after falling from the sky. You can see it is severely damaged,” Wang Yao said.
”OK, thanks,” the surveyor said.
They left feeling disappointed.
”How are we going to report it to the manager?” one of the surveyors asked.
”The drone is not cheap,” another surveyor said.
”Exactly, it costs several tens of thousands of dollars,” one of the surveyors said.
”Do you think the cost will be deducted from our wages?” another surveyor asked.
All of them were upset. They planned to never come anywhere close to Nanshan Hill again.
In fact, the drone wasn't badly damaged when Wang Yao found it. He took some time to study it before crushing it with his hands. The major parts were broken into pieces and not fixable. He didn't want the drone to take pictures of his herbal field. Otherwise, his secrets would be released.
The surveyors still took the drone to a store for repair. They wanted to try their luck.
”Are you sure it dropped on the ground instead of being crushed by a car?” the store assistant asked.
”Yes,” a surveyor said.
”I don't think it is fixable. You can throw it away,” the store assistant said.
”What!” the surveyor cried. ”Oh no!”
They would definitely get blamed.
”Why did they ask us to do the damn survey over there?” one of the surveyors complained.
It was really hot that day. The temperature reached 100 degrees at noon. It was even hot in the village.
