Chapter 32: The Harvest Begins
With white people involved, and all behaving strangely, what is that for?
He didn't figure it out, so let's wait until he was done with the things at hand!
Two days passed quickly, today is the time for the cabbage to be harvested, before according to Nivelle's design, Lin Quan specially found the blacksmith in the town and ordered a batch of tools, the blacksmith's production speed is not very fast, this batch of tools took him several days, fortunately there are only sixteen people, if there are more workers on the farm, more orders, he estimates that the delivery time will be delayed, it is so capricious, it is so inefficient, but you also have no problem with him.

"Okay, everyone listen, according to our previous grouping, divided into one to three groups, each group of five people, everyone gathered to harvest, so that the helpers can be easy to carry, but each of you has your own indicators and quotas, so you also have your own divisions, when the time is to complete today's plan, you can rest, whoever completes it first will rest first, if whoever completes their task after not wanting to rest, wants to work overtime, then go to the new area to harvest, and reward 320 shillings for each additional ten cabbage harvested!”
Lin Quan is making the final arrangements, today's weather is good, and the Chinese-funded institutions contacted by Zhang Chuan before will also come to the door today, so take advantage of the freshness, and the farm has hired helpers, so it will be solved at one time, the whole harvest will take about three to four days, of which the first two days must be the busiest, and the pressure to pick up the goods is also relatively large, so in order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the workers, Lin Quan can only come up with incentive policies.
According to his plan, the person who came to pick up the goods today should pull away at least 50,000 Chinese cabbages, so the farm side must complete the harvest of at least 50,000 trees today, which is not an easy thing, on average, everyone has to complete at least 3500, which means that they have to complete at least 400 trees in an hour, less than ten seconds, and keep maintaining this speed, this is not an easy thing, if you don't give a little stimulation, with African urine, it is estimated that half of the dry will have to be picked.
Hearing that there are rewards for completing more tasks, everyone cheered, although they all knew that the money was not so easy to get, but there was always a rush, and if the boss didn't say anything, just let them work, they must be very unhappy in their hearts!
"Boss Lin, what should we do?"
I watched the farm workers get to work with their tools, but the helpers who brought in didn't know what to do.
Lin Quan invited a total of ten people, these ten people are responsible for cleaning up the cabbage harvested by fifteen people, and then sorting out the harvested cabbage to the side of the road in the middle of the farm, waiting for the truck outside to come and then carry out the transfer.
So Lin Quan thought about it for a while, and simply let them go to harvest Chinese cabbage, although they are not trained and do not have special tools, but they can harvest slowly with a sickle, and ten people are at least worth five skilled workers!
"Since everyone is interested in joining our farm, let's just get acquainted with what you need to do in the future, so let's get some tools, and everyone join the harvesting team, of course, it's voluntary, and I'll pay you an extra according to the amount you harvest, fifteen cabbages 320 shillings, how about it?"
320 shillings is almost equal to 1 yuan, and the Tanzanian shilling is not very valuable, so this number sounds high, but it is actually very cheap.
The helpers who were invited were obviously tempted, it is not easy to find a job these years, for them, the poor countries of Africa, they do not have the problem of population aging, the most important thing in society is the young and strong labor force, and the country does not have a complete set of industrial system, and the service industry can not be counted on, basically everyone is on the primary industry agriculture, and agriculture is difficult to make a fortune, so it has become their desire to find a job.
At this time, Lin Quan's conditions were very attractive to them, because it would not only allow them to earn extra money, but also leave a good impression in front of the owner of the farm, they had all come to participate in the recruitment of the farm before, but for various reasons, they were not selected, but when they were unsuccessful, they were assured by the farm owner that if the next farm wanted to recruit workers, they would be given priority among them.
And this is their hope, look at these lucky guys who participated in the application with them at the beginning, they have become formal workers in the farm, not only that, but their welfare is also very good, the weekly salary is 100,000 shillings, the monthly salary is more than 400,000 shillings, this kind of treatment is very bad, and working on the farm is much easier than working on the construction site, look at them one by one, not only the spirit has become better, but also look one by one oily, the body has also grown stronger, and then look at yourself, or the poor sour look of the hanger, the so-called no comparison is not harmful, such a comparison, Suddenly the other party came out of the way, he was still a poor dick, and he hated that in his heart!
Therefore, after almost no consideration, everyone is willing to participate in the harvest, as long as they can make the boss have a slightly better impression of themselves, and then add some chips to fight for this job in the future, at this time to suffer a little bit of loss, then what is it, not to mention that the boss has to pay additional compensation, so that their income today is likely to exceed the regular workers on the farm, so that when they think about it, they are more motivated.
"Boss, why does it seem that the losers are working harder than the regular employees in our field?"
Randy guarded the gate, Uli had nothing to do, so he came over and watched these guys cut cabbage, he had seen cabbage before, but he had never seen so many cabbage, most of them were flown in by the French from the mainland, although this thing is easy to store, but it also depends on the place, in a dry and hot place like Africa, the moisture in the cabbage is very easy to lose, if it is delayed on the road for a little longer, the cabbage will be dying, and it will lose its texture and taste。
Therefore, after the Chinese cabbage was planted, not only Zhang Chuan and Lin Quan, but also Wu Li was very interested in this thing, and his task was to guard the farm, so he saw it almost every day, night and night, and completely watched the Chinese cabbage grow one by one.
