When I got home in the evening, I called a few new arrivals to the old mansion and signed a contract, and none of the thirteen newcomers were willing to leave, and they were well fed here, not abused, and their wages were guaranteed, who would want to go.

Peach Blossom didn't change the name of the newcomer, telling them that they could change their name and surname only if they did well, and the hearts of the few who came early were much more beautiful. The reward for each person is also one or two pieces of silver, and the work is arranged, and it is announced that the summer harvest will begin tomorrow, and it will be disbanded.

Peach Blossom found the fourth aunt and asked her and the fourth uncle to manage the workers and livestock on the wasteland, the fourth uncle's temper was too slow, and the number of people began to seem undisciplined, and the fourth aunt was a neat "Fourth aunt, you and the fourth uncle to manage it, in addition to mahjong, the workers' expenses over there, the preparation of things all depends on you, and in the future, pigs, chickens, fish, and orchards are sold to pay your family's commission, this burden is not light, there are many workers, and it is chaotic, you have to worry more." ”

"I don't have an opinion, we have all arranged, sister-in-law and your mother are going to be unhappy." "I have all the arrangements, it just so happens that there are many people in the family and want to plant bamboo and open orchards in the contracted barren mountains, and this all depends on the uncle." "You little person doesn't miss anything, I really don't know who you follow." "What are you afraid of, your Lianhong will definitely be more blessed than me in the future, look at her more and more beautiful, look at her more and more beautiful, it will make people like it. In the future, I will marry into a big family in the city. "I don't want her to marry far away now, just stay close to me." You can come and see me a little more. I don't see the happiness of marrying in the city, I save more now, and it's the same thing to sell her a few maids. "In a few years, Lianhong will have a lot of money she has saved." "The little girl is paying attention, she never tells us how much she saves, I'm afraid it's not less than a hundred and ten taels."

The fourth aunt made a lot of effort to let Lianhong enter the city at the beginning, envying her little sister for finding a family in the city that did not worry about food and clothing, so she dressed Lianhong beautifully since she was a child, just like walking the same path as her little sister. Now I heard that my little sister's husband gambled, and often scolded my little sister for not giving birth, every time my little sister came to the house, she secretly cried, and asked the fourth aunt to stuff some money for her. The fourth aunt is not short of money now, and she does not envy the kind of life in the city where there is no shortage of food and clothing, in the words of her little sister, she is now much better than the people in the city. On the contrary, she was afraid that her daughter would be wronged.

At dinner, Peach Blossom and grandfather, uncle and a few discussed the plan to sell the barren mountain, everyone did not object, discussed for a long time and decided to buy the ancestral tomb including the three mountains in the northwest, these three soil is good to grow things, there is a small river, I heard that there is a big lake on the mountain, buy a mountain is about two or three thousand taels, the family's public account is going to be spent again, everyone suggested to buy some wasteland, that is, to build a shed to raise pigs, live people, put charcoal are good. Everyone began to see the value of the wasteland, and Peach Blossom also thought about starting to grow peanuts after the summer harvest, and the idea was unanimously approved like everyone else. Arrange the personal responsibility, and the matter of buying the barren mountain will be settled.

Peach Blossom was like this in her previous life, she never liked to hold a wordy meeting in the company, maybe it was related to her study abroad for several years, stained with a bit of Western-style way of doing things, each department has a special person in charge, who has a problem to meet directly to solve it, good at employing people, dare to use people. She won't tire herself to death all day long, spend money to raise a group of wastes who can't do things, and anyone who will do their own things well if they delegate power appropriately, she has already thought about it, and after a year or two when the family stabilizes, she will go out for a walk to see the customs of Datang and the unpolluted mountains and rivers.

Families began to pack up the tools for the summer harvest, so that the peach blossoms worried about the problem of hiring people to make bamboo blocks, and the wheat will enter the harvest period in seven or eight days, and the manpower is now the most difficult to find.

Li Zheng's opinion is to find the surrounding villages to do it together, after all, it is not realistic for the Taohua family to buy too many people, there are five or six villages around, including the eldest aunt's Jiangjiazhuang Village, and the root of the same scholar Dongzhangzhuang, these two are relatively close to the mountain, both in the southwest of Xujia Village. I discussed with Ri Zheng to go and see it the next day.

The eldest aunt's house is easy to do, and as soon as Peach Blossom goes home and discusses with the eldest aunt and eldest uncle, the eldest uncle will go home to recruit people. The eldest uncle's name is Jiang Sicheng, and he knows that there are many brothers in the family from the name alone, and now there are several brothers and nephews in the family who work in the peach blossom family, some have built houses, and some help in the wasteland, all of them are relatively reliable people. The eldest aunt's family is now the object of envy in the village because of the peach blossom family, if the eldest aunt goes back to say hello, I believe that manpower is no problem.

The next day, Peach Blossom, Li Zheng, grandfather and fourth uncle went to Dongzhangzhuang together. The southwest of Xujia Village is Jiangjiazhuang, and the east Zhangzhuang is in the southwest of Jiangjiazhuang, all of which are surrounded by the same hill, and the village is built along the foot of the mountain.

There are six or seven miles of land in the peach blossom house in Dongzhangzhuang, which is closer than entering the town, but the road is not as easy to walk as it is, and the four of them drove the carriage on the road for half an hour.

Li Zheng took them to the Li Zheng family in Dongzhangzhuang, because of the marriage, several villages left into more or less some relatives, Dongzhangzhuang's Li Zheng saw them come is also a surprise, the peach blossom family has long been spread all over the country.

Zhang Li is very burly, I heard that he can make a few strokes, and he also goes up the mountain to hunt. "Brother Synthesis, Brother Xu, please, please, it's not easy to see you now." Grandfather's Bi Li Zheng is one or two years younger, and he is not used to being called by Li Zheng of Dongzhangzhuang, his expression is a little unnatural, compared to Li Zheng, he is much calmer, "That's Brother Zhang, it's easy to see me, it's difficult to see Brother Hexing, this squatting God of Wealth comes to your house, you are going to make a fortune." And our flower masters are also here, and they will entertain us with good wine and food. ”

"Hello Grandpa Zhang." "Okay, okay, this is the flower master, just like everyone said. Beautiful, competent. Come inside and have a cup of tea on such a hot day. me, go and call Ziqing to come over, and bring some wine by the way. Zhang Lizheng naturally immediately understood what Li Zheng meant, the business of Peach Blossom's family is so good, or come over in person, it is definitely a good thing.

Peach Blossom and a few people are not polite, they all went into the house to drink tea, since they are here to send them money, there are still a lot of things to discuss, and it is reasonable to have a meal.

"Where is the flower master, I heard that the flower master is coming, so I hurriedly came over with wine and meat." "I know the flower master." "Uncle Zhang is here too." "Brother Zhang is your family." It was Zhang Ziqing, the father of Yougen's classmate, who came, "This is my father, this is my family." I want to have two drinks with Brother Xu today, Dad, this is the Xu family of Xiao Xin's classmate. "Yes, yes, I forgot."

Peach Blossom's impression of Zhang Ziqing is still very good, and it is easy to deal with such a person.

After drinking tea and greetings, he got to the point, "Brother Zhang, we are sending you money today, let's let the flower master tell you about it, this is a good thing, I will think about you the first one." "If you don't think about me, I'll turn your face again." Tell me what good things are happening. ”

"We need a lot of bamboo blocks right now, and that's the size." Peach Blossom took out a sample from his pocket and handed it over, "This kind of bamboo is not difficult to make, you need to do it with the people in your village, we provide a complete set of tools for each family, the money for the tool is deducted from the salary every time, and you can also give a little rent every month to use, the bamboo needs to be cut by yourself, a set of such is one hundred and forty-four yuan, we give one hundred Wen, and we can make a pair a day with a fast hand, and we can do two or three pairs of fast things in our village, and now every family is doing it." Peach Blossom said here, stopping deliberately.

Zhang Lizheng was really surprised, "Earn so much, it is said that every family in Xujia Village now eats meat, it seems to be true, this work can be done, our village can definitely do it, there is such a good job, we are greedy for a long time, but we can't ask for it." You say, what else do you want. ”

"The requirement is the same size, with a smooth surface. If we don't do it well, we won't accept it, there will be a master to come and teach everyone, every day we have someone here to collect, and everyone has to check. In terms of eating and resting, I still have to worry about Ah Gong, and in order to thank Ah Gong for his help, I will give Ah Gong two cents for each pair. "This is a great benefit to us, and we can't ask for a commission." "There are many places where Ah Gong is needed, and each family has to be notified, managed, and arranged for people to watch them cut bamboo, don't cut it for less than two years, and there are people who come to eat every day, I won't give money, Ah Gong doesn't take a cut, we are embarrassed to trouble you, we have to find other villages to do it." "You kid, we're going to draw a lottery, if this is given to another village, I'll be scolded to death here."

"Everyone can rest assured that the salary is settled every day, which is enough to pay a pair." "When will it start?" "It's best to start today, the sooner the better, and I'll have to arrange it in a few days." "Our village has little land, if you can get more money, it will be feasible to hire a group of short-term workers, so go to the village and shout for everyone to come over, see if there is anything to ask the flower master, and take advantage of the flower master to come over today." Zhang Ziqing smiled and went out to call someone.

After a while, some people came over one after another, around the peach blossom greeting to inquire clearly, the peach blossom patiently repeated it to them over and over again, and finally almost a village of people came, everyone was excited to hear the news, so close to who knows about Xujia Village, there are several families in the village in Xujia Village relatives live for a long time to help, help to get the money is naturally less, now good things to their own door, naturally no one will miss it.
