Chapter 52: Hiring People
Canghai roughly guessed the reason, it may be related to the seed of life planted in front of his family, but even he can't be sure of this matter, and there is no way to tell the old ones, so he has to stand with the big guy in the rain for a while.
After standing for about ten minutes, Canghai carried a shovel and said hello to everyone and turned back home.
Early the next morning, Canghai pushed open the door, and saw that the sky outside was clear, and a round of red sun on the distant soil slope had jumped out of the earth, sprinkling his own light on the loess slope.
After cleaning up and starting to feed the chickens and make breakfast, before breakfast was ready, I saw Ping'an, the kid, coming over with his big black dog.
The big black dog followed Ping An to the edge of the platform of Canghai's house, and he refused to move a step forward, since the last time he was attacked by the tiger's head, not only the big black dog, but all the earth dogs in the village took a detour when they saw the tiger's head, and the vicinity of Canghai's house was like a forbidden area.
Seeing Ping An coming in, Canghai casually asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
Ping'an's answer was as usual: "I ate, but second brother, I'm still a little hungry."
Canghai couldn't help but add a noodle to the pot when he heard it, and grabbed a handful of vegetables and put them in, today this green vegetable is Canghai's own vegetable field, since the last chicken attack, Canghai used a one-person high net to fence his own vegetable garden, preventing the chickens in the village from entering his own vegetable garden to harm his own vegetable garden, and it didn't take a few days, the chicken feathers grew again.
"Your grandfather, they're still working today?"
Canghai sat down and prepared to add a fire to the bottom of the stove.
Ping'an walked over, stood next to Canghai, and began to take over the work of burning the pot: "No, my grandfather and they drove the car to the town early in the morning to work."
"Going to work in town?"
"Well, what kind of brick yard is in the town, and who else wants to transport something, my grandfather will help people transport it," Ping An said.
Canghai was very strange when he heard it: "There is no special car in the town?"
Ping An said: "Although it is more to transport by car, it is also more money, and a board car like my father not only saves the money for getting on the car, but it is not expensive to transport."
When Canghai heard Ping'an say this, he thought for a while and asked, "Then how much money can your lord make this day?"
It's lower than the freight cost of the car, so how much money can Grandpa Hu take advantage of at the end of this day?
"My father said, after all, there is something to earn, our farmer is a handful of strength, idle is idle, if I don't want to follow the second brother to plant trees, I will also follow my father to catch the car. Second brother, tell my father, I don't like the work of pulling a cart, I like to work with you, there is a delicious ...... for every meal when I work," Ping'an said.
Hearing the words of peace, Canghai's heart couldn't help but tremble, and he said: How could I forget this! Just thinking about my own life, why didn't I think about helping the villagers find a livelihood.
After thinking for a while, Canghai said to Ping'an: "Let's not plant trees today, when we finish eating, you follow my brother to the west slope to take a look, my brother has a friend who rents a large piece of land over there and is ready to plant trees, and I will go with my second brother to see how things are going over there."
Where does Ping An have any ideas, and when he heard Canghuo say this, he immediately nodded and agreed.
After the two brothers finished eating, Canghai put on the donkey cart, took the tiger head and went to the west slope, although the straight line distance is quite close, but it really has to be two or three times the distance, and it has to keep going uphill and downhill, and you have to take a detour when you encounter a steep place where there is no way to walk.
The two brothers walked slowly and tightly, and it was almost half past twelve at noon that they came to the vicinity of the kiln where Wen Yi and a few people were going to live in the future.
When I arrived at the place, Canghai was a little dumbfounded, because I couldn't see a person here, let alone a person, there was not even a dog, the kiln mouth was opened, and seven or eight new kilns lined up around the soil slope into an arc, and the door was a platform of earth ramming.
"Second brother, come and see, they also drilled a well here" Ping An found the well here at this time, and shouted happily at the sea.
Canghai walked a few steps, went down the soil slope to the well, only to find that the well said in Ping'an's mouth is not small, the diameter is almost more than three meters, the depth is seven or eight meters, there is a gentle slope on both sides of the well, until the bottom of the well, there is a layer of yellow mud water at the bottom of the well, and the puddle where the villagers used to take water is almost the same.
Ping An was holding a small branch in his hand at this time, inserted it and tested the depth of the water, and when Ping An pulled out the branch, Canghai estimated that the water was at most sixty centimeters deep.
"Ping, you go to the house and see if there is anyone in the house" Canghai opened the peace.
Ping An did not doubt that there was it, and when he heard Canghai's words, he walked towards the kiln with a branch in his hand.
Seeing that Ping'an had gone a little farther, Canghai picked up the magic trick, got a small bowl of water out of the space, and poured it into this turbid well.
After a while, the water in this well slowly cleared up, and rose up, looking at this, Canghai added a small half bowl of water, and waited for the water to grow to more than one meter, then closed the space, and walked up with his feet.
Since Wen Yi came over to plant trees, Canghai couldn't adjust the difficulty too high, if he planted trees normally, he wanted to finish planting this piece, it was not an easy thing, the trees had to be watered every day after planting, and the most lacking thing in this piece of yellow earth was one word: water!
If you have to water the trees that are planted while planting new trees, it will be labor-intensive, so Canghai decided to open a small hanging for Wen Yiyi, and use the water of this well to plant trees, although it cannot guarantee 100% survival, but 780% is still there, so the workload will naturally be much less, and the economic benefits will naturally be faster.
As soon as he walked to the well, the voice of peace came again.
"Second brother, look!"
Following the direction of Ping'an's finger, Canghai saw a string of small black shadows moving on the slope in the distance, lined up like a small ant, and when he looked closely, he knew that it was a cart pulled by a string of cattle.
"Is there anyone in the house?" Canghai said to peace.
Ping An said: "There is no one, there is no furniture, it is all empty, just the cement is smeared."
Canghai has seen it in the house, and even if Ping An doesn't answer, he knows that several new kilns have been plastered with a layer of cement, and it seems that the cement has not been dry for a few days.
"Second brother, what should we do next?" asked Ping'an.
After everything was done, Canghai felt that there was no need for him to stay any longer, so he said to Ping'an: "Let's go back, and come back when there are people."
"Oh!"
Peace answered.
So the brothers got into the donkey cart again and began to walk in the direction of the village.
When I returned to the village, it was already more than four o'clock, Canghai took a turn, looked at his own vegetable garden, and then fed a little forage with Ping'an to the sheep in the village livestock shed.
When the sun was about to set, Canghai went back to make dinner.
As soon as I was packing up and preparing to cook, I heard Ping An shouting, "My grandfather is back."
Standing at the door of the kitchen, Canghai saw Hu Shijie and a few people driving a flatbed truck, slowly walking towards the village, the direction they came over today was not the town, it was obviously the direction where Canghai went today, that is, the place where Wenyi planted trees, and it was also the direction of the forest farm camp of Tubiz Exhibitions.
"Haiwazi, did you come early today?" Hu Shijie and the others entered the village, and when they saw Cang Hai, they smiled and waved hello.
Canghai saw that several of their board trucks had red brick scraps on them, and he guessed that they were going to transport bricks to Wen Yiyi.
"Grandpa Hu, who are you?"
"The work in the fields is almost the same, we take the time to make some money, it's all easy work, we transport bricks, and we earn hundreds of and eighty yuan this time and again," Hu Shijie said with a smile.
Canghai doesn't know, this is the living state of the villagers, when there is work in the field, go to work in the field, and when there is no work, you can't be idle, drive to the town to pick up some work, earn an extra dollar, and have a dollar in hand, even if it is so, you can't get a job every time.
"It's a coincidence today, the company in the town hired people to move things, we went late, and it was not our turn to move light furniture, so we only received the work of moving bricks," Li Licheng said with a smile.
"How much money can you have in a day?" asked Cang Hai.
"We can net 60 yuan on this trip today," Li Lida said with a smile.
Canghai listened and asked, "Didn't you say that there are one hundred and eighty in a day?"
Li Lida said with a smile: "People give one hundred and eighty, we can't get it, and the rest has to be given to the leader, they take over the work, and we are just responsible for the work."
Cang Hai couldn't help but ask in surprise when he heard this: "Do you still have a head in this job?"
The meaning of the head is to organize people, about equivalent to the foreman on the construction site, these people organize people to come to work, after receiving the money, a part of the deduction, the rest of the money will be distributed to the people who work, most of the time these people eat the upper house and eat the next home, belong to the people who do not work and only pull the relationship.
Hu Shijie said: "How can there be no foreman, such as transporting bricks, if you don't introduce the head, people won't let you transport it!"
"Otherwise, Grandpa Hu, you will come to the house later, I want to talk to you about something," Canghai said.
Hu Shijie smiled when he heard this: "What's the matter?"
"I want to hire people to do the work for me," Canghai said.
"What do you need to do your work?" said Hu Shijie.
Canghai waved his hand when he heard this: "Let's make this matter one yard to one yard, not only you have wages, but Ping An also has wages here, he and I keep accounts these days."
Hu Shijie and the others listened, and after glancing at each other, Hu Shijie spoke: "Then let's go to your house to talk about this later."
