Chapter 127: A Lively Commissary
Although Lin Wanwan repeatedly persuaded Lin Xiruo and Qingying not to eat too much, or they would not be able to eat after a while, but these two still ate three cucumbers and two tomatoes by themselves, although they didn't feel full after eating these, they were about the same, and if they ate, they probably wouldn't be able to eat a few bites, so these two had to go around the village in order to be able to eat the very delicious meal that Li Cheng made by Li Cheng as Lin Wanwan said.
Fortunately, it's not yet time for lunch, so run around the mountains for a while and digest as much as you can.
The fact is that after they ran to Li Cheng to finish the meal, they didn't digest much, but just like that, the two of them still ate a lot, and in the end they couldn't bend down until they were finished, Lin Wanwan looked at them as if she had eaten such a delicacy at the beginning.
After Li Cheng sent Lin Wanwan and Lin Xiruo away, he didn't go home, but chatted with the villagers who were playing here at the entrance of the village commissary.
The entrance of the commissary is generally a place where the villagers gather, and at the head of the village, there is a big tree for everyone to enjoy the shade, set a small table to play mahjong, or get a bottle of two pots, get a few ready-made peanuts and ham sausages in the commissary, just at this door, have a drink, in short, the commissary is indispensable to people at any time, if Li Cheng has something, he doesn't want to tell everyone on the loudspeaker, go to the commissary to say, and ensure that it can be passed on to no one.
Sometimes it works better than a loudspeaker, after all, sometimes there may be no one at home when shouting on the loudspeaker, and the neighbor doesn't know that he is going out, so he doesn't notify him, so there may be some things that are not in place.
And this way of passing on from mouth to mouth is still very reliable in the small mountain village of Baimahe Village.
"The village chief is here, and the two city girls are gone?" The commissary was opened by Wang Erzhu, that is, the one who called Li Cheng when Zhang Hu led people to make trouble by the river, and he was also more sincere, at this time he was watching others playing mahjong at the door, and when he saw Li Cheng coming, he immediately greeted him.
"Gone, playing?" Li Cheng said with a smile.
"No, I'm just looking." Although Wang Erzhu said that he opened a commissary, and there were mahjong players in front of the door all day long, but he never played, and the reason was very simple, that is, his daughter-in-law didn't let him play, in fact, his daughter-in-law didn't care about him before, but since she found out that Wang Erzhu had never won playing mahjong, she didn't let him finish directly.
Wang Erzhu is not anything to be wronged, originally, this thing itself is a win and lose, but if a person only loses and does not win, it is not interesting, so Wang Erzhu really never plays again, but sometimes he will accompany the old man who is missing one to play a few old cards, that he can occasionally win a handful.
"Village chief, I see that Wanwan girl often comes, and it's good for you, why don't you work hard, learn from the people in the city, and chase them over." Aunt Wang San and the three or five aunts who were idle and chatting were also there, because Aunt Wang San was close to Li Cheng, and sometimes Lin Wanwan would go to her house to talk to her or something, so she and Lin Wanwan were also familiar with her.
The more familiar I became, the more I felt that Lin Wanwan was a good girl, and naturally hoped that the village chief could marry such a good girl.
"Third aunt, a big man wants to start a career first, I actually came to inform everyone, I was afraid that someone was not in the village, so I didn't shout with a loudspeaker, and then I have to trouble you to notify your neighbors." Li Cheng cut straight to the point and said, if you chat with Aunt Wang and the third aunt, I don't know when it will be on time.
"So there's something serious, village chief, you say, we'll all listen." Aunt Wang San said, and the few mahjong players also stopped, and they all looked at Li Cheng waiting for his words.
"Starting tomorrow, I want to hire fifteen villagers who can work, both men and women, as long as they are not children or old people, they will be busy in the morning, go to pick mushrooms for me on the mountain bag, and help the people who come to pull goods to load the trucks, fifty yuan a day per person, almost an hour can be busy, what do you think?" Li Cheng stated the purpose of his trip.
It turned out that the output of mushrooms is getting bigger and bigger, half of the hundreds of acres of land are planted with mushrooms, and there is not much to pick a day just by Li Cheng and the masters who came to pull the goods, Li Qingqing is not enough, and strongly asked Li Cheng to get more, and she also said that there are as many as they want, not afraid of more.
What Li Qingqing will say is also because she has found another way to sell mushrooms, that is, they are packaged in high-end gift boxes and sold to the outside world, of course, the price is definitely not expensive, and it is even much more expensive than asking for a plate of fried mushrooms in her hotel, of course, the amount is also very small, that is, enough for a meal.
That's for sure, if she sets the price of the mushrooms in retail at a cheaper price than the stir-fried mushrooms in the hotel, then who will eat the stir-fried mushrooms in the hotel? After all, this dish is delicious in the mushroom itself, not in cooking, although cooking is also an indispensable condition, but mainly in the mushroom itself.
Of course, there is another reason for Li Qingqing's price to be like this, so she is afraid that her peers will take advantage of her opportunity to sell to the outside world, and they will do it when she buys it back, so won't it become a trouble for herself and a stumbling block?
Li Qingqing's reason for such retail is just to advertise his hotel, and it is also part of the income, it is estimated that people who spend so much money to buy mushroom gift boxes are basically used as gifts, and no one will buy such expensive mushrooms to fry at home, after all, you can eat delicious mushrooms at a cheap price in the hotel.
And when Li Qingqing's idea was implemented, it turned out that she made a very correct choice, all the gift boxes were snatched up, and those who bought gift boxes should also eat mushrooms in the hotel or eat mushrooms in the hotel, which did not affect the business of the hotel, but also improved the business, it is estimated that those who received the gift boxes also came to the hotel.
It's just that after all, the number of mushrooms is too limited, so only ten or eight gift boxes can be evenly distributed every day, how can this be, because there are few ripe mushrooms before, Li Cheng has no choice, there are more and more mature mushrooms these days, that's fine, if you can't do it, you can find the villagers to do it, and when the time comes, give them some wages, and they can't spend too much money, but they can sell a lot of mushrooms, and there will be a lot of money.
That's why Li Cheng is now recruiting people to pick mushrooms in the village.
"Then this is a good thing, those who can work for the village chief will make money, village chief, I want to sign up!" Aunt Wang immediately shouted.
"I'm going to sign up too!"
"And me, I'll go too, I'm very good at picking mushrooms, and I've been picking mushrooms in the mountains since I was a child!"
"We are all ah, we all have experience in mushroom picking, and I have to sign up for the village chief!"
After Aunt Wang was the first to shout to sign up, everyone shouted to sign up, this time it was lively, there were so many people who signed up, but there were only fifteen places, this is just the people who are present now, and there are no people present? With such a high salary given by Li Cheng, it is estimated that those who are present and those who are not present will want to go.
Although fifty yuan is not a lot, but the working time is short, only more than an hour, this salary is definitely not low, not only not low, it must be considered high.
And because most of the laborers in the village who can work have gone out to work in the city, there are many idle women in the family, and these women have nothing to do outside of farming, and there is still a lot of idle time every day.
So as soon as Li Cheng's words came out, everyone's reaction was naturally to want to go, of course, after reporting the name, everyone didn't forget that it was really good to underestimate the village chief, it was really amazing, and the land could be planted and hired people and other praises.
"Li Cheng, I heard them say from afar that I will go too, and I will also sign up, what is this for?" When everyone was still talking about this matter, Zhao Xurong and Old Man Zhao walked over slowly with their hands behind their backs and said curiously.
