    Chapter 966: The school sweethearts first love who took a check and went abroad (4)


    Mr. Hunter didnt reallyugh at her, he was just joking. Afterughing, he talked about thepetition rewards: the first ce received a bonus of 3,000, the second ce received a thousand, and the third ce received 500.


    Compared with the sry level of less than NZ$500 a month, the championship bonus is quite attractive.


    The champion will be eligible to represent Cook Town in the city-widepetition in Christchurch. If you can win the city-widepetition, that would be great. Not only will you get a bonus, but you will also have an award certificate signed by the Lord of Christchurch!


    Xu Yin is not interested in the certificate. She is more concerned about the bonus now.


    Mr. Hunter twitched his lips: "The champion of the city-widepetition was rewarded five thousandst year. I don''t know how much it will be this year, but I think it won''t be less than five thousand. On the contrary, in the Canterbury Regional Competition, the reward for the championst year was A pair of hand-operated wool shears made of solid gold.


    Pure gold wool shears? That''s really good!


    Xu Yin suddenly had a bright future. If her long-term goal was to own a farm and ranch, then in the short term, it was pure golden sheep shearing.


    To qualify for the Canterbury Regional Competition, you must first be the Town Champion and then the City Champion.


    So, in the next few days, she began to prepare for thepetition.


    Mr. Hunter said that in recent years, few yers have used traditional wool shears to participate inpetitions. Almost all yers use electric clippers. However, the organizer stiptes that no change of clippers is allowed midway, otherwise it will be regarded as cheating.


    Thinking about it, if the contestants prepare a bunch of electric clippers in advance and change them when they need to add oil or change the clippers when they get hot, this will not be so friendly to yers from poor families. After all, electric clippers are not cheap to purchase and maintain.


    Then I dont need an electric clipper, but can I sign up for a manual wool shear? Xu Yin asked.


    Mr. Hunter said: "There is no limit to this. The reason why everyone uses electric ones is because manual cutting is too slow."


    I added something in my mind: Who is like you? You can pick up manual scissors and cut them non-stop. Not to mention your hand speed, it''s like a perpetual motion machine.


    Since she couldpete with traditional wool shears, Xu Yin signed up.


    After signing up, start the scene simtion every day and practice shearing hand speed. It must not only be fast, but also fast and clean.


    I cut every day, and I dont stop cutting for six hours a day.


    Hunter said that the regionalpetition has the longest time limit. In order to select the truly powerful sheep shearing champion, the contestants have to shear for five or six hours without stopping.


    It can be seen that it is not that easy to obtain pure gold wool shears.


    The problem is that there are so many sheep in Hunter Ranch for her to practice. All the sheep look like they have been shaved, and they are all bare. Even if they are willing to cut Xu Yin, they will cut them for her even if they have no hair. Xu Yin has no wool. If you cut it, why should you cut it if there is no hair?


    The Hunter familys ranch is still a bit small after all.


    Xu Yin sighed in her heart.


    It would be nice if there were other sheep farms nearby for her to practice.


    Unfortunately, the nearest neighbor is not only two kilometers away, but also mainly raises dairy goats.


    You can''t just shave the hair of someone else''s dairy goat just to practice, right?


    Dont say that the rancher wouldnt allow it, and she wasnt that crazy.


    Mrs. Hunt noticed her eagerness to practice her skills and said with a smile: "If you are willing, you can work part-time at my uncle''s ranch. His family raises 600 sheep, and they probably haven''t finished shearing yet."


    Xu Yin immediately thanked him.


    Mrs. Hunterughed and said, "I want to thank you too. You finished three days of work in one day, much faster than expected. The sheep didn''t make any noise and were much easier to manage than before. Don''t worry, until thepetition day Come back again.


    When Xu Yin went there, she not only helped Mrs. Hunter''s uncle, Mr. Aiwei, shear the remaining 400-odd sheep, but also helped Mr. Aiwei''s mother-inw''s mother-inw shear seven to eight hundred sheep. Part-time jobs were originally paid on a daily basis, but Xu Yin''s efficiency was so high. She could finish the tasks that would take others three or four days toplete in one day, which seemed quite easy.


    Before thepetition day, Xu Yin was going back to Cooktown. When Mr. Aiwei settled her sry, he doubled her sry.


    Xu Yin took this small extra money and her hand speed as fast as a ghost to go back to Cooktown to participate in the sheep shearingpetition.


    After a month of practice, she can now shear twenty sheep an hour, averaging one sheep every three minutes. The speed is very stable.


    This achievement, Im afraid no one would believe it.


    Old George has been working as a shearer for twenty years. At his fastest, he sheared fifteen sheep in an hour.


    That was his best result, and that year he finished fourth in Cooktown with this result.


    Although he didnt win the prize, he was still two less than the first ce winner.


    Then I still used electric clippers. In the early years when I used traditional scissors topete, it was considered fast if I could cut five or six pieces.


    So I cant imagine how Sean managed to shear a sheeps wool in an average of three minutes? Wouldn''t it be tiring to cut it to the back?


    Xu Yin felt that the speed could be faster.


    She once read a piece of news in a small modern world, saying that there was a sheep shearing champion in Australia who could shear a sheep in less than thirty seconds.


    And she needs three minutes.


    However, that person used an electric hair trimmer, which is much more advanced than the current electric hair trimmer. It can be used for five or six hours without getting hot. If it is properly maintained, it does not need to be lubricated during use.


    So, she wanted to continue to improve her speed. What she needed to improve was no longer hand speed, but tools.


    After thepetition was over, she thought about whether she could improve the existing electric faders.


    Now, she takes to the track with traditional hand shears that have sheared more than a thousand sheep.


    Not to mention that the contestants were stunned, the judges almostughed.


    Bringing a traditional wool shear to participate in thepetition? Isn''t this meant to be funny?


    However, after a few days, they started to feel pain in the left side of their face and then in the right side.


    Xu Yin has a stable record of shearing twenty sheep per hour, and is invincible in the Canterbury area.


    She won three championships in a row, winning first ce in Cooktown, Christchurch and Canterbury along the way.


    Cooktown awarded her NZD 3,000, while Christchurchs winners prize this year was raised to NZD 8,000. She received a total of NZD 11,000 and a pair of pure gold wool shears.


    Let those shearers who couldn''t **** her with electric clippers be envious and ashamed.


    It almost caused internal strife among the organizers of thepetition.


    Some judges were unwilling to have their high prize money and pure gold wool shears taken away by a Chinese international student, and demanded that Xu Yins registration qualification be cancelled;


    However, some judges were fair and believed that thepetition schedule did not stipte that foreign students were not allowed to participate in the sheep shearingpetition.


    In fact, there are international students from all districts participating in thepetition, but in previous years, no international students have stood out and won awards in the sheep shearingpetition, so everyone does not take it seriously.


    This year a dark horse suddenly appeared and won one championship after another based on its strength. Is it necessary to temporarily change the rules of thepetition? Will thispetition still have credibility in the future?


    After many heated discussions, in the end, the championship of this yearspetition was still awarded to Xu Yin.


    But starting next year, the schedule may change. This is just in case Xu Yines topete again next year.


    She is so young. If shees to participate in the sheep shearingpetition every year, what else will she do?
