On the first day of October, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass

Yaowangmiao Hu is close to Wenshan Academy, but the first to come back is Changsheng. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He sent Xia Xiucai back, and came back almost without much delay. Uncle Guo came back relatively late. He had a smile all over his face, and he knew he was in a good mood when he saw it.
It turned out that he sent Second Uncle Xia's family back, and met Zhang Cai, so he was invited in to meet Zhang Cai and Luo Juan.
He didn't see Zhang Qiao'er, nor did he see Tian Jiansheng. It is said that Tian Jiansheng is very stammering with the prison prisoner's wife these days because he wants to accept Zhang Qiao'er and Zhang Qiaoer's son, and he always has to go back to the main house for two days out of three days, for fear that the prison prisoner's wife will suddenly regret it, and things will not be easy to do.
Aunt Xia was not as happy as Uncle Guo, so she just said and wait and see. Uncle Guo guessed what she was worried about, but Wu Zi was still very happy. According to him, some people have some things that even luck can't stop.
The person he was referring to who suffered good luck was naturally Second Uncle Xia's family.
Xia Zhi didn't have the time or heart to think about it, she had too many things to take care of.
The next day, the tooth man brought several girls and daughters-in-law to try out the work here on the summer solstice. Xia Zhi asked these people to make zongzi by hand, while looking at their craftsmanship in making zongzi, and asking the tooth people about their family background, naturally they would not forget to carefully observe everyone's clothing, speech and behavior.
At the end of the trial work, Xia Solstice left eight people, all young and neat girls and daughters-in-law between the ages of sixteen and early forties. Those who come out to do this kind of short-term work are naturally not very well-off, which can be seen from the clothes of these people. The summer solstice is clean and tidy, with clean eyes, shiny hair, and a relatively healthy complexion.
At present, employees are not allowed to take people to the hospital for medical examinations, and can only be judged by their appearance. Those who are young and can meet such a standard in appearance will generally be healthier and will not have any serious diseases.
Even if the customers don't know, the summer solstice is responsible for their health.
Leaving these eight people behind, Xia Zhi told them her requirements, which were the ones she gave to the tooth people. In addition, she also told these eight people: "If you are busy, I am afraid that you will have to work overtime." ”
After saying this, Xia Zhi saw a blank look on the faces of several people. She immediately realized that she had said something that they couldn't understand, so she changed her wording: "It's just getting up early and being greedy late, but the salary is calculated according to the number of zongzi packed, and the more you wrap, the more you earn." "And it also guarantees that the wages will be settled on the same day, and there will be no arrears.
Such conditions are completely acceptable for these short-term workers. In fact, they all felt that these conditions were quite generous.
"Today is your first day on the job. However, the glutinous rice has not been soaked yet, and I can't start making zongzi today. I'll give you some more work, half a day's work is enough, and I'll give you five big dollars each. ”
The work arranged today on the summer solstice is some simple cleaning. More importantly, she gave each of them a piece of homespun cloth and asked each of them to sew two sets of hats, masks and aprons.
The summer solstice cut out a look, provided the needed scissors, needlework, etc., and let these female workers start to work. Needlework for female workers is the basic skill of women in this era, especially such simple needlework, which everyone can do. And these selected by the summer solstice are obviously one of the skillful hands, and the hats, masks and aprons sewn out are all stitched, which makes people unable to pick out the bad ones.
When the female workers had finished their work, Xia Solstice learned more about their ingenuity and the temperament of each person. She also left the female workers to have a simple meal, which was all bought with rice and vegetables and made by herself.
Starting tomorrow, in addition to paying the female workers every day, the summer solstice also guarantees them a lunch to ensure that they are full. If you need to work overtime, you will add a breakfast if you get up early, and if you want to do it in the evening, you will add a dinner.
The women workers were satisfied. Xia Zhi sent them today's wages, and set the time for tomorrow's work, and let them go back.
After sending off the female workers, Xia Zhi locked the door in the back corner, turned around and said to the little black fish with a smile: "Uncle, look at what my employer is doing." ”
The little black fish didn't go to play today, he had been with the summer solstice since early in the morning, and he was also brought by him along with Daqing. According to what he meant, he didn't know how to make zongzi, and he couldn't help Xia Zhi with anything else, so he took Daqing to help Xia Zhi as an overseer.
The overseer Xiao Heiyuer was very loyal, and when he saw Xia Zhi ask him, he smiled, and his big eyes were crooked with joy and excitement that could not be concealed: "Sixteen, I feel that you have done a very good job." ”
In the eyes of the little black fish, the summer solstice really does what it looks like, and the summer solstice can do anything, and it can be done well.
"Sixteen, how much money can we make by making zongzi and selling them?" The little black fish led Daqing and asked curiously about the summer solstice.
The summer solstice rubbed the top of the hair of the little black fish. Little Black Fish was so focused that she didn't notice her "offense". Xia Zhi smiled secretly, and she told the little black fish: "It's not good to say for the time being." We have to wait for the zongzi to come out, and we will go to sell it to find out. ”
"Sixteen, then I'll help you sell zongzi. The little black fish said immediately.
"Okay. Xia Solstice immediately agreed.
Xia Zhi and the little black fish returned to Aunt Xia's yard. As soon as I got out of the moon gate, I met the girl Xiaohong. Xiao Hong smiled and talked to Xia Zhi and Xiao Heiyu'er, and then lowered her voice and pointed to Pearl's room: "...... The girl from Yuhuan came, just after lunch. ”
Xia Zhi nodded at Xiaohong, and walked to the upper room with the little black fish, but did not go to the West House, but went to the East House to talk to Aunt Xia.
In the West House, Guo Yuhuan and Pearl were sitting on the kang and whispering.
“…… I heard that the courtyard here was bustling, and I guessed that you were in a treat, so I was embarrassed to come. The two of them were talking about Second Uncle Xia's family coming over yesterday.
Pearl told all the things about Second Uncle Xia's family. Guo Yuhuan listened straightly, and his eyes rolled back and forth.
"I know their family. Not to mention, that Zhang Qiaoer may really be able to become the wife of the prisoner. When the time comes, your second uncle's family will definitely be developed. ”
Second Uncle Xia is underdeveloped, and pearls don't care too much.
Because Pearl Fang had only spoken of May and July, Guo Yuhuan asked her carefully. Pearl didn't say anything about her unhappy with May and July, but talked about the dress of the two people, and also mentioned that Tian Jiansheng gave May a media.
"Why didn't your mother bring your third sister and fifth sister to live at your house. I heard that these two people are better than your fourth sister, when do you go to see them, I will accompany you. ”
Pearl pouted, "You didn't see them! They are not as good as my fourth sister." ”
