Chapter 159: Recruitment

As the saying goes, opportunities always come quietly. After the autumn harvest www.biquge.info, according to this custom, it is time to pay the rent, whether it is land rent or shop rent.

On this day, Li Quan went to Li Zhu's house with a dejected face, and said with a sad face: "Zhu, I have been to see your shop, and I see that the person who rents your house is a solid person who does great things." The shop is well cleaned up before and after. But the front door is deserted. I couldn't bear to look at it, so I only took half of the rent. ”

When Hamahama heard this, he nervously ran to Li Quan's feet and waited for him to tell him the reason. Li Zhu also looked strange and asked, "Didn't you say that the business was good before buying the shop?" What's going on? ”

Li Quan said: "I heard that it is not good or bad before I bought it. Now the shopkeeper thinks that it is near the river, and there are many fishers, so he sells bamboo utensils. At first, business was good, but within a few days, the business faded down. I've also observed that he hasn't been open for a few days. ”

When Hamahama heard that it was a bamboo seller, he laughed in his heart. What is called more fishing, I don't want to think about it, here are all poor people, a bamboo, not into bags of things passed down from one to another, and the poor people are ingenious, thrifty, see for themselves, together with can also be woven and sewn, unlike some rich people, everything is exquisite. This bamboo is a one-time deal, of course, it is not coincidental.

Li Zhu sighed after hearing this. Li Quan said: "The shopkeeper looked at it and wanted to pay it truthfully, but because of the lack of money in his hand, he paid a one-year lease according to the half-rent, and they planned to stop renting next year and find another job." ”

Li Zhu nodded and said, "That's the case." ”

Li Quan said: "Then I'll help you release the news now, saying that you want to rent a shop?" ”

Li Zhugang wanted to nod, but Binbin replied beside him: "Uncle Quan, rent a shop and go out, we only have some rentals." If that person can't make money, and we are embarrassed to collect so many rents from others, how can we say that we are all losing, it is better to buy one or two people ourselves, and let people work according to our instructions, isn't it better? ”

Li Quan's eyes lit up after hearing this, and Li Zhu was stunned after hearing this. Li Quan said: "I came this time to tell you about this. You see, what Hamahama said is very reasonable. That's what I thought, too. You don't understand the business thing, my brother helps to watch, and nothing will happen. ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu smiled and said, "Brother Quan, I might as well rent it to you." ”

Li Quan shook his head after hearing this, and said, "Zhu, let's not hide it, we all know that the shop you bought is actually a place. But no one wants to buy it, and no one wants to buy or sell there. You know why? ”

Li Zhu thought for a while after hearing this, and said, "Because of identity? ”

Li Quan sighed: "Yes, it's because of identity. Originally, being a merchant was already inferior, and the rootless person (fisherman) was secondary, and it was a cheap job. It is not appropriate for us to deal with those people, not to surrender our identity, but to degrade our identity. You are different, you are a showman, you don't have such scruples. ”

Li Zhu nodded in agreement after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Okay, Brother Quan, you help me choose two little guys, help watch the shop, and I will give you the monthly money." ”

After hearing this, Li Quan smiled and said: "It's up to you to choose the little guy, and you can teach me." ”

After hearing this, Binbin nodded straightly, if his family makes money, Uncle Quan should make a great contribution, and the achievements cannot be less than Uncle Quan.

Qi Jiu heard that the Li Zhujia wanted to buy someone next to him, and hurriedly said, "Dongjia, do you want to add some people?" Li Zhu went to the same ground and worked with Qi Jiu in the past, knowing that Qi Jiu was a real person and had a friendship, he smiled and said, "Are you suitable?" Let's talk about it, right? ”

Qi Jiu said happily: "My cousin used to help run feet, although his strength is a little smaller, but he is a real person, and he has also learned abacus. ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu nodded and said, "You can choose a time to bring someone over to take a look." ”

Qi Jiu smiled and nodded after hearing this.

Li Quan thought for a while and said, "It's right to use people well." However, you still have to buy one more person, and there is only one person's shop, which will definitely not be busy. ”

Li Zhu nodded after hearing this, and Li Quan said: "You want to buy one that won't do anything, and we will teach it after you buy it, you don't have to bring other people's bad habits over." ”

Binbin asked Qi Jiu with a smile on the side: "Uncle Jiu, our family is going to be bought out, is your cousin willing?" ”

Qi Jiu smiled and nodded: "Yes, my cousin originally wanted to sell himself with me, but my uncle said that he would wait for me to see if it was easy to talk to the master who bought me, so let my cousin come over." ”

As soon as Li Zhu heard this, he felt uncomfortable. Li Zhu looked at Li Quan, Li Quan shook his head and said, "Qi Jiu, I see that your cousin doesn't want to sell himself, and he can also be a treasurer if he helps a big businessman in the future." Forget it, let's buy two and nothing. I don't have to tie some bad habits together. ”

After hearing this, Qi Jiu looked at his own owner, and saw that his owner was dominated by Li Quan, so he had to nod helplessly, in his heart, being a shopkeeper for a businessman must not have done a decent job for Xiucai.

On the second day, Li Quan took Li Zhu's family straight to the place where he bought people last time. This time, Li Hongshen and Mrs. Zhang did not come, Li Hongshen thought that the Li Zhujia already had experience, so he no longer followed the bumps. Hamahama must be making trouble to follow, from another level, it is her person who bought it this time, and it is more likely to be a confidant, the first generation of opening pioneers of Hamahama's business empire.

However, if there is one thing that goes well, the rest does not go so well.

Although the autumn harvest has passed, most of the families are hungry this year, so they have switched to planting rice wherever they are. This has led to a lack of harvest. And some discerning people grow some mung beans or red beans and sell them at a good price.

This incident caused the eyes of those who had suffered with them to be angry.

Since these people are all foreigners, they have no relatives, no reason, and no support, so they are stolen or oppressed.

As for this phenomenon, the government has no way to deal with it, because it is not the locals who steal and oppress them, they have no place to live, and they are wandering around, which is more difficult to control. Those who are stolen or oppressed can only suffer for themselves.

When Hamahama and his party reached the village in front of the town, they were blocked by two groups of people.

Li Quan looked strange and got out of the car to ask the reason. After only a while, he came back and said to Li Zhu: "Zhu, there is a melon farmer in front of him, accusing a family of stealing his melons, and no one is willing to admit such a thing. I don't know how long it will take to end after pushing like this. Why don't we take a detour. Li Zhu nodded, and Binbin asked strangely: "Uncle Quan, is that melon farmer catching a thief now?" If it is caught now, why doesn't that family recognize it? ”

Li Quan is good at doing business, and businessmen have always paid attention to gossip and are also good at probing, and said: "It's not caught now, but the melon farmer insists that this family stole it." ”

Li Zhu heard strange and got out of the driveway: "Brother Quan, let's go and have a look." After hearing this, Hamahama also made a fuss about getting out of the car. After hearing this, the rest of the children also wanted to get out of the car together to watch the excitement.

The group walked to see what was going on.

The melon farmer's surname is Liang, and he fled from Beijing to come here. Since melons have always been a relatively expensive thing, Liang melon farmers have a little scattered silver, built a thatched house here, bought two acres of land, and started their old business.

Lin Sheng, the person who fled with him, saw that his vegetable melons were grown, sweet, and refreshing, and there was an endless stream of people who bought melons every day, so he was angry, so he secretly picked his melons and transported them to the town to sell by himself. has been fine, but today, for some reason, Liang Gua Farmer insisted that Lin Sheng stole his melon. Of course, Lin Sheng didn't recognize it.

Li Zhu stepped forward, looked at Lin Sheng and Liang Gua Nong, looked at the land on both sides, nodded, and said to Lin Sheng affirmatively: "This brother, you hurry up and make amends to Brother Liang, this matter is over, you are so open, and you don't admit it, it will only make people cold, if the impact is too great, you may be driven away." ”

Of course, Lin Sheng knew that he was a foreigner, and if he was tainted with the name of stealing, he would definitely not be able to continue to live here. Seeing the handsome man in front of him, he said, "Who are you, how much money did Liang Sheng see?" Let you slander me like this. ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Li Zhu. Li Zhu shook his head and said, "I was just passing by, and I didn't know you at all before today." Where does the slander come from? ”

After hearing this, Lin Sheng said angrily: "You and I don't know each other, don't talk nonsense." Although I am not from this town, I am a person who does my duty, as long as I have paid taxes three times in the local area. And a few days ago, I just paid my first tax. ”

In order to reduce the number of people moving many times, the imperial court decided that as long as you pay taxes three times in one place and have a house, you can become a local person.

After listening to Lin Sheng's words, everyone was biased towards Lin Sheng, how to say that he also had a house. It is certainly more convincing than the Liang melon farmers who live in thatched huts.

Li Zhu frowned after hearing this, and asked, "This vegetable and melon field next to it, Liang Sheng, is it yours?" ”

Liang Gua farmer paid attention to Li Zhu when he appeared. After all, Li Zhu and his entourage are extraordinary in appearance, especially following Li Zhu's eyes, he saw that Li Zhu saw his family's land, and his and Lin Sheng's feet, and he couldn't help but admire his intelligence.

Liang Gua farmer has no skills in growing melons at all, but he is more diligent than ordinary people and more diligent in fertilizing than ordinary people, so his family's land is black. It's just that compared with ordinary people, it's slightly darker and smellier.

Moreover, he dug a hole two feet wide between each melon plant, buried the dung inside, and still covered it with soil, which ordinary people could not see. If you are not familiar with his melon field, ordinary people will step on the dung pit when they go inside to pick melons.

Liang Sheng was sure to make trouble about Lin Sheng's theft, and Li Zhu seemed to see his tricks just by looking at it, which made him have to pay attention to it, and said carefully: "Exactly." ”

Li Zhu nodded to Liang Sheng and said to Lin Sheng: "The black soil on the sole of your shoes and the dry marks on the upper of your shoes are obviously dry traces of feces. The black soil on the soles of your shoes is the same as that of Liang Gua farmers, which means that you have gone down to other people's fields, and looking at the dry marks on the upper of your shoes, it is obvious that you have stepped on the dung in the ground, that is, there is no Liang Sheng leading the way in front. Why are you alone and going to someone else's melon field? (To be continued.) )
