Chapter 184: Caught off guard

82_82370The so-called separation of personnel management and finance mentioned by Erya here is just a relatively independent and basic generalized management model of enterprises and institutions in later generations.

In the management mode of the big shopkeeper here, it is not so easy for Erya to create a new model. However, fortunately, although Liao Chengzhi has talent in personnel management, he has no cultural foundation. Therefore, he can't manage the financial aspect even if he wants to, which gives Erya a shortcut. As long as you form a routine from the beginning, the road behind is easy to walk, if you want to change in the middle of the road, people may not be happy!

The next morning, the couple washed up and went to the town, so that the children and the uncle's family would have breakfast before going, so as not to be busy and unable to take care of them.

When I arrived in the town, I found out that things were big, and today turned out to be the day of the market. Because of the rallies that have been held for several months, people within a radius of dozens of miles know that there is a market to buy and sell here. The flow of people at each rally has increased gradually, and the number of people at the last few rallies has reached 3,000 to 5,000.

The villagers who came to the market saw the stage set up in the open space not far away, and when they asked around, they knew that there was a play to watch. The villagers who didn't know that there were singing, lion dances, and flower boats in the town now know about it. Some ignored it and continued to do their own business, while others hurriedly ran back to call their families to come and watch the excitement. By the time the lion dance and the flower boat arrived, the flow of people running around the town was estimated to be at least 6,000.

In the morning, the lion dance and the flower boat walk are mainly for the children who have passed the exam, and the afternoon is for singing.

Those villagers who were not invited still wanted to watch the afternoon play, and when it was time to eat, they did not go back from home. Adults can still endure hunger. Stayed around the stage and waited, but the children couldn't do it, one by one they looked at the banquet at the entrance of the school, and some kept wiping their saliva. The uncle who was busy entertaining outside couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly ran to the cafeteria next to him to find Erya: "Little tiger daughter-in-law, do you think you can give a bite to the children who came to watch the play outside?" ”

Erya knows that she has collided with Ganji today, and there are a lot of people! But she's been busy inside. I don't know yet. Many people did not go home for dinner because of the long distance. There are also some children who are reluctant to go back because of the smell of meat here!

So. Before she understood the uncle's words, she asked in confusion: "Aren't the children already lined up for seats?" ”

The uncle knew that he hadn't made it clear, so he quickly explained: "It's not our own children, it's the children who came out to watch the play." There are also some old people standing not far away! I looked at at least a hundred of them. ”

"Oh!" Erya understood this time, so she used her brain to think about things. It's impossible to serve them all. If they had bowls, serve them rice and vegetables and let them eat them aside.

That's right! Erya slapped her face and said to her uncle, "Uncle." You quickly ask Xiaohu to arrange for someone to buy a hundred large bowls and a hundred pairs of chopsticks to come back, and fill half a bowl of rice and half a bowl of meat and vegetables for those children and the elderly, and let them stand on the side to eat. No seats will be arranged. That's too cumbersome and time-consuming. ”

When the uncle heard this method, he even said yes! Then he said: "Don't bother Xiaohu about this. I just asked someone to go and buy the kiln goods. ”

The uncle said, turned around and arranged for someone to buy a big bowl.

Erya hurriedly informed the people in the kitchen that they would burn three more pots of braised pork and four large pots of white rice. After the notice was given here, the other side was glad that Grandpa temporarily added a big fat pig yesterday.

When Dahong came back from buying a bowl, he said that there were at least five or six hundred people standing on the stage waiting to watch the play, and before he went home to eat, Erya felt very dizzy.

For these people, if you pretend not to see it, you can't get over it! One person is just a bowl of rice. If you were all entertained, there wouldn't be so many pots for cooking and cooking. And the meat and vegetarian dishes that I originally bought will not be enough at all.

In the end, Erya decided to do complicated things simply, "Dahong, you go to the house that sells meat in the town to see if there are any pigs, if there are any, let him kill two heads immediately and send them over, the action must be fast." ”

Er Ya is ready, and the adults on the stage are all the same as those children here, one person has half a bowl of rice and half a bowl of meat, and he stands with a bowl to eat. If someone dislikes not being on the stage, there is no way, as long as they are at ease.

When the banquet went to the second trough, the children who were getting more and more hungry outside were already crying secretly, and the braised pork specially cooked for them in the kitchen inside could finally be cooked.

Granny Liu, who was in a hurry, used a large wooden barrel that is usually used to hold vegetables and rice for the children, filled a bucket of meat and a bucket of rice, and let a few young men carry it to the children gathered outside. A few more young men carried the cleaned bowl of the sea and put it next to Granny Liu's standing rice bucket.

Granny Liu knocked on the edge of the rice bucket and shouted, "All line up, the small ones stand in front and the big ones stand behind." The girls were in the other team, standing side by side. Come one by one, don't squeeze, whoever squeezes won't give anyone food. Here we go! ”

Next to her was Zhu Jinling, who helped with the bowl and handed the chopsticks, she had a trip to the capital, she was not afraid to show up, and helped Granny Liu to do things, full of enthusiasm. While handing the bowl of rice and vegetables to the child who couldn't wait to reach out, he explained: "After eating, you must send the bowl and chopsticks over, and there are still people who want this bowl to eat, do you know!?" ”

Some children are bold, grinning, just looking at the meat in the bowl, nodding unconsciously, in fact, they don't know what people are talking about. Some were timid and didn't dare to look up, but timidly lowered their heads, cautiously reached out to take the dishes and chopsticks, and replied in a low voice: "Hmm!" ”

The first two pots are not enough for these children, and there are still a small and half of the older children who have not fished them, and some old people have not yet gotten them.

Zhu Jinling explained to them: "Don't worry, there are only three cooking pots that can be made for you to eat." There is also a pot of vegetables that will be served immediately, and the other two pots have just been put in to cook, and it is estimated that the time will have to wait longer. ”

The children were fine, although they all watched the other children eat fragrantly, and their eyes were about to burst into flames. But there was no such thing as a fight and a snatch of food.

There are so many people who came today, and there are many people who were not invited before, and they also swaggered over. When I asked him whose relatives he was, they were all rotten people who didn't care about the life or death of their children and nephews, but now they want to eat and drink with the light of their children. For such a scumbag, Er Ya gave a death order, so that the guards were optimistic. Resolutely do not allow them to occupy seats.

The troupe eats in the first trough. After eating, I went to get busy with makeup, setting up the scene, and pulling the curtains. Those who were originally waiting on the stage were excited when they saw the troupe passing. Follow behind the troupe. watched with great interest as they put on makeup, arrange costumes, and choose outfits. The cages are like magic, and they are always able to come up with something that makes them feel new and beautiful.

The handymen who set up the scene and hung the curtains would ask them to help out from time to time. They will be flattered and come forward. And then it's a scramble to help.

The seats that should be placed in the back have been put out, and the children and the elderly outside have also solved the problem with a bowl of hands. Dahong went to call the people on the other side of the stage to eat. They were stunned and thought that they had called the wrong person, but they didn't answer, but they looked at Dahong strangely.

Dahong had no choice but to say to the people closest to him: "My cousin and sister-in-law, seeing that you didn't go home for dinner, I burned a few pots of braised pork and rice by the way. Please take a bite and cushion your stomach. ”

Some listened to it and were very excited. Pull your feet and go. Some of them listened and felt very embarrassed. Squirmed and stood still. However, seeing that everyone else was running to the school to eat, it aroused the herd mentality and trotted over.

All of them walked to the front of the school hall at a trot, bowls of rice and meat, all of which had been served, and were placed in rows on the mats that had been cleaned up.

Seeing bowls of braised pork with a little sharp on top of the rice, there were children and the elderly at home, and they were reluctant to eat it, so they asked each other in a low voice: "You say, can I bring this bowl of rice back, and I will send the bowl back tomorrow?" ”

"Hey! I also want to bring it back to my family for two small ones to eat, but I am afraid that the lord's family will not be happy. ”

Another answered: "My old mother and father can't eat a meal of meat all year round, and I want to bring it back to satisfy their hunger." ”

"Or, let's ask? Let's just say we'll definitely send this bowl back. ”

Those who don't know must think it's very strange, isn't this bowl of rice and meat worth a coarse porcelain bowl of one or two pennies? Guilty of repeatedly stating that the bowl will be returned?!

Ahem! About this too! Gotta say it. Let's do this! Not in terms of the value of the bowl, but in terms of local customs.

Here, when an elderly man dies, after the funeral feast, the guests will try to steal the bowl back from the host's house. This is a bit superstitious to say, they think that such a bowl can ward off evil spirits. In particular, it can be given to children to avoid disasters. Actually, there is no reason for this, but people here are keen to do such things. Erya once laughed at them, they were reluctant to spend money to buy bowls, and they had to find such a high-sounding reason.

But the fact makes Er Ya have nothing to say, no matter whether he meets the poor and the rich, whether it is evil or good, the family is very cooperative, buy hundreds of bowls, open for people to steal, it is said that there is a powerful one who can steal ten bowls home, just one table, and it is also beautifully called: perfect. Cut!

Knowing this reason, you won't be puzzled about why people always care about a bowl! As long as you are not a person who is doing a high-life funeral, you can't take away someone's bowl casually, because it will be taboo.

When she came over to tell them that she needed to add food and vegetables, Granny Liu, who shouted at the kitchen, listened to the conversation of several of them, and quietly returned to the kitchen. told Er Ya about this, Er Ya is also a person who has experienced poverty, and knows that they have good old people and children at home who are still worried about outside, so they are moved by their children's hearts and filial piety. So I asked Granny Liu to tell them to eat first, and when they went back, there were leftovers to bring them here.

The old people and children who had eaten were busy occupying seats and watching plays. Er Ya and Xiaohu, uncle, and second uncle, who are the people of the main family, are even busier. Because there was a wedding banquet in the evening, all the dishes at noon were overused. Now I have to hurry to the county seat to buy it, because Erya also promised to bring meat back to the children and old people at home, and the pork alone will buy at least five whole pigs.
