Chapter 89 The Man Who Works
Different from Zhao Dehua and Liu Fang's reactions, Zhao Yunfang looked at the few people working in the rice field, and she asked a little embarrassedly: "Ziqiao, how much do the people you shouted cost?"
Originally, it was her family's business, and when she called her relatives over, Zhao Yunfang would not talk about any money or not, but Zhao Ziqiao suddenly called outsiders to come over to help harvest rice, and this money naturally couldn't let Zhao Ziqiao out.
Zhao Ziqiao, who had just found a sense of accomplishment in front of his parents, heard Zhao Yunfang ask, and immediately thought of the key in his heart, and replied with a smile: "Auntie, these people don't need money, as long as they prepare more meat at dinner, they are very easy to support." ”
Hearing that Zhao Ziqiao was unwilling to tell the truth, Zhao Yunfang didn't know what to say for a while, how could anyone work for a meal now, but not a salary?
When Zhao Shandong heard Zhao Ziqiao's words, he didn't make a sound, but he thought about it differently in his heart.
"Since Ziqiao said so, then those people's wages, let's stop standing here, let's go first! ”
Zhao Shandong's words made the others nod their heads, the person was found by Zhao Ziqiao, and he gave money, but as the master, if you really hide in a cool place, you can watch it with your eyes, it is really a little too much, even if you don't help, you have to supply the water and food that should be prepared.
Zhao Ziqiao looked at everyone a little speechlessly, but this speechlessness was followed by understanding, after all, in the countryside, the relationship between people is relatively simple.
It's not like in the city, I give money, you work for me, except for the things above, the two sides will have some intersections, and the rest of the things are basically dispensable, but in the countryside it is a different scene, after all, finding someone to work will not go beyond the scope of a town, everyone can more or less know each other's information, how the master treats people, how the people who come to work are good, will be spread after the work. If the work period is long, it is also possible that the two parties will become friends, and they will go to each other to support each other in the future.
What is the situation of the four people working in the rice field, Zhao Ziqiao is naturally clear, but he can't say it, seeing that his aunt's family and his parents are going over, Zhao Ziqiao can only helplessly keep up, it seems that the current situation is a little contrary to his original intention.
A group of people walked to their own rice fields, several people in the rice field, there was no reaction at all, they were harvesting the rice by themselves, as if they didn't see them coming, what made Zhao Shandong and others even more strange was that the heads of these four people were wrapped in clothes, leaving only the eyes, nose and mouth, and the clothes on their bodies did not fit well, they were tight, and the contours that appeared through the clothes made people know the muscles on their bodies at a glance.
"What's going on?" Zhao Shandong couldn't understand it, he wrapped his head like a dumpling on this hot day, wasn't he afraid of covering the prickly heat?
"They're sunscreen! And they have that red birthmark on their face, and they're scared of people, so they've always dressed like that. Zhao Ziqiao came as soon as he opened his mouth to talk nonsense, and it sounded full of loopholes.
Zhao Dehua and Liu Fang naturally don't believe Zhao Ziqiao's statement, sunscreen can be understood, after all, the kind of sunscreen hood that only shows the eyes, nose and mouth has been reported on TV, these four people can make this kind of thing with clothes, it is not unusual, but there are birthmarks on the face, and there are four people, such a coincidental thing, can it be encountered so easily?
Even if he could meet them, how could he, Zhao Ziqiao, gather these four people? Besides, in a radius of twenty or thirty kilometers, he had never heard of a person who had a birthmark on his face and couldn't see people with his true face!
What's even more unconvincing is that Zhao Shandong and Zhao Yunfang may not be familiar with the clothes on these four people, but as Zhao Ziqiao's parents, what clothes did their son have before, don't they have any points in their hearts? Besides, the muscles on these four people are formed by perennial labor, and he, Zhao Ziqiao, a recent graduate student, how can he know this kind of person who does manual work?
However, Zhao Dehua and Liu Fang did not expose Zhao Ziqiao's lies, they just stared at the half-harvested rice field, and sighed slightly, the work efficiency of these four people is indeed strong.
"Come on, come on, everyone has worked hard, come and smoke a cigarette and rest. Zhao Shandong saw the speed of these people's work, and he couldn't help but show a smile on his face, but he couldn't patronize letting people work and not give people a little rest.
Zhao Shandong's words, the four of them turned a deaf ear, still working with their heads bored, Zhao Shandong's hand holding the cigarette was raised in the air, slightly embarrassed.
"Uncle, they don't smoke! If you really want them to rest, let my aunt buy a watermelon! ”
Zhao Ziqiao smiled and gave Zhao Shandong a step down, the four farmers in the rice field only listened to his orders, if they kept being so unkind and ignoring people, Zhao Ziqiao felt a little round.
"Okay, Yunfang, go buy a watermelon!" Zhao Shandong put away the cigarette and said to Zhao Yunfang, then glanced at the four people in the rice field again, and said to the others: "Since they are harvesting rice, then let's thresh! ”
Zhao Dehua and Liu Fang had no opinion, but Zhao Ziqiao turned his head and rolled his eyes slightly, obviously he could keep the four farmers busy, but he didn't expect this errand to fall back on his shoulders.
Now in this situation, he couldn't refuse, so he could only start working with them.
Zhao Dehua and Zhao Shandong controlled the threshing machine, Zhao Ziqiao and his mother held the rice bundle and handed it to the two, and after the two cleaned the rice bundle in their hands, the two handed over a new bunch.
Basically, the movements of the four people are all repetitive mechanical movements, but compared to the situation of harvesting rice in the morning, this work is obviously much easier.
The threshing machine wheel is constantly flying, the grains on the bunches of rice, the grains fall into the threshing machine one by one, not long after, the scattered rice piles around several people have become two large rice stalks, if you want to continue to threshing the rice, you have to change places, otherwise the people holding the rice bundles, it will be too time-consuming to go back and forth.
Zhao Shandong and Zhao Dehua got down from the threshing machine, and the two walked to the front of the threshing machine, grabbed the 'ear' sticking out of one side with one hand, and pulled the threshing machine forward to slide out.
"Shandong, you're all about to finish harvesting the fields?
As soon as Zhao Shandong and Zhao Dehua parked the threshing machine, the envious voice of the fourth uncle in the morning came from the ridge.
When Zhao Shandong heard this, he was also stunned for a moment, twisted his body and looked behind him, almost startled, are these four people harvesters?
In less than an hour, they did the equivalent of the fruits of a morning's labor for the five of them!
"I hired a few people, so I got it a little faster. Zhao Shandong smiled and replied.
The eyes of the person who was called the fourth uncle by Zhao Shandong suddenly widened, pointed to the person who was harvesting rice, and asked Zhao Shandong: "Shandong, where did you find the people from? After they finish their work, can you introduce them to me?"
Zhao Shandong was stunned for a moment, this hired person, there are still people who want to rush to ask for it?
However, as soon as he turned around, he saw the speed at which the four people were harvesting the rice, and he also understood why the four uncles wanted to ask them to pass, which was no worse than the machine.
"Fourth uncle, this person is looking for Ziqiao, you can ask Ziqiao what the wages of these people are first, right?" Seeing the speed of the four people's harvesting, Zhao Shandong also reminded him that the speed at which they worked, the wages would not be low.
When Zhao Ziqiao heard Zhao Shandong ordering him, he smiled and shouted to the fourth grandfather on the ridge: "Fourth grandfather, the salary of these people is two hundred yuan a day." ”
Hearing this price, the old man who was called the fourth uncle by Zhao Shandong on the ridge of the field couldn't help but shake his head, he wanted to let these people help him work, but the salary was too expensive! He wanted to find these four people to work, and whether his family's field could earn the 800 yuan or not, they all said twice!
Thinking of Zhao Shandong's family, because he has a good nephew, he can spend 800 yuan a day, he envy from the bottom of his heart, when will his grandson be able to have such a good fortune as Zhao Ziqiao?
Seeing the old man walk away with a smile, Zhao Shandong turned back to Zhao Ziqiao and asked, "Ziqiao, is the salary of these people really two hundred yuan a day?"
Zhao Ziqiao knew what Zhao Shandong was worried about, the annual output value of the rice field under his feet would not exceed three thousand yuan, if he really found four people to open eight hundred yuan for wages, it would be heartbreaking for anyone.
"Uncle, you don't have to worry! I said that just now to lie to the fourth grandfather. ”
"Huh?" Zhao Shandong was a little puzzled.
"I asked my friends to find these people, and I don't need any money, just make them more meat to eat at dinner! But just now the fourth grandfather said that he wanted to find them to work, if I didn't say that the price was higher, then the fourth grandfather would really find them to work. As soon as they went to work, I was a little embarrassed. ”
"Really?" Zhao Shandong was obviously a little unconvinced.
"Really, these people were brought for me by my friends, and they don't charge any money. Zhao Ziqiao emphasized again, and then said with a smile: "If he dares to collect money, then wait for me to find him!"
"Still talking nonsense, don't you work?" Liu Fang suddenly went up to Zhao Ziqiao and knocked on his head.
Zhao Ziqiao looked at his mother, saw his mother's eyes widen, and suddenly became a little clearer in his heart, and immediately shouted: "I'll go to work now." ”
Liu Fang saw Zhao Ziqiao striding forward, stepping on a large splash, scolding silently, and then said to Zhao Shandong: "Brother-in-law, you really don't care, Ziqiao said that if you don't want money, you really don't want money, if you really want money, he won't be in this tone." ”
Hearing Liu Fang say this, Zhao Shandong thought for a while, nodded slightly, knowing his son Mo Ruomu, Liu Fang's words should be credible!
