After Mu Chen made the plan, he rode his motorcycle back home, but this matter had to be postponed for another day, because tomorrow he still had to go up the mountain to perform another "creation thaumaturgy" on that acre of bitter ginseng, and only after this matter was finished first could he have the energy to return to the cucumber matter.

When he returned home, Mu Shulin happened to be fine, and Mu Chen immediately seized the opportunity to discuss the matter of hiring people with Mu Shulin.

As soon as Mu Chen said this, Mu Shulin immediately frowned and said: "You have been busy for the past two days, and I haven't mentioned this matter to you, I think it is not realistic to hire people from the village to turn over the soil, every family has a field, how can they have time to help us?"

Mu Chen didn't know about this situation, but he also had his reasons, Mu Chen said: "Since they are hired, then they naturally have to make money, I think no one should have a hard time with money, so someone will definitely come." ”

Mu Shulin nodded, and he said, "Then how much money do you plan to pay? If there is less money, people will definitely not want to, and if there is more money, this must be a big expense." ”

"Dad......" Mu Chen said with a smile, "No matter how much money is paid, after we hire these people, they will be equivalent to doing things for us, working for us, when the skullcap is planted, it is we who make money, this expenditure must be unavoidable, if we only rely on ourselves, how can we plant so much land." ”

Mu Chen's words made Mu Shulin suddenly brighten, in fact, he didn't understand the truth of this, but he had planted all his life, and his courage was indeed a little small, even if they now had nearly one million on their cards, but he also knew that it was not easy to make money, so when it came to paying, Mu Shulin always had a feeling of reluctance.

"Alright," Mu Shulin said, shaking his fan, "then we'll calculate how many people are needed for two hundred acres of land." ”

Because the mountains have been barren for many years, and the land has long been dry and clumped, according to the most optimistic estimates, a person can only plough two acres of land a day, so if you calculate it, you can only complete 20 acres of ploughing in a day if you hire ten people, which means that it takes about ten days for the entire mountain to be ploughed out.

Ten days, Mu Chen pondered for a while, in fact, this matter can't be rushed, now is the initial stage, many things Mu Chen didn't touch the doorway, so he said to Mu Shulin: "Since it's just a matter of two days, then let's just hire ten people to turn the ground, anyway, I'm not in a hurry." ”

Mu Shulin said: "That's what I mean, since the number of people is set, then how much salary do you say is appropriate for them?"

Mu Chen thought about it, judging from his experience of working in Jicheng City in the first two years, the per capita salary there is almost 3,000 yuan, and the average day is 100 yuan, and the salary of 100 yuan a day is definitely a lot for rural people, but if the salary is opened to this number at one time, there is no room for growth at all, so Mu Chen finally decided to set the salary at 80 yuan per day, but the working time is not as 9 to 5 as working in the city, rural people generally work at sunrise. As the sun set, Mu Chen decided to do the same, except for an hour to eat at noon, and the rest of the time he kept working.

When it came to the problem of eating, the father and son made another difficulty, after all, the mountains are so far away, it is really inconvenient for ten people to come down the mountain to eat, Mu Chen thought about it and decided to arrange for Zhao Ailian to cook for these people at home.

Speaking of this, Mu Chen hurriedly ran to ask Zhao Ailian: "Mom, have you cooked the food for ten people by yourself?"

Zhao Ailian immediately shook her head when she heard this: "You hire these people to go up the mountain to do manual work, the amount of food is very large, and everyone is from the township, and I have to get enough food, I think it should be no problem for you to find me another helper, I am responsible for stir-frying, and he is responsible for picking vegetables." ”

Mu Chen nodded and said that he understood, it seems that he still needs to find another person to help Zhao Ailian, but who is more suitable for this person? Mu Chen went through the people he knew in his mind, but he didn't think of a suitable candidate, so he had to put this matter aside and continue to discuss the details with Mu Shulin.

After saying all the questions that could be thought of, Mu Shulin said: "I think this matter is settled, then we will go to Mu Gang tomorrow morning and ask him to use the radio to roar, as long as he wants, he will sign up, but what about the person who cooks?

Mu Chen waved his hand at Mu Shulin and said, "Don't talk about this matter, there will definitely be a lot of people who will sign up tomorrow, and when the time comes, we will just choose one of the extra people to help my mother cook." ”

"That's fine," Mu Shulin nodded in agreement, "Then it's fine, hurry up and go to bed today, and tomorrow you'll be busy." ”

Mu Chen naturally knew how busy he would be tomorrow, and the most important thing was that he had to dig up the acre of bitter ginseng before these people went up the mountain, otherwise he would spend a lot of words to explain, he didn't have so much spare time.

Mu Chen woke up and found that it was only five o'clock, which surprised him a little, it seemed that he only had to tell himself in his heart what time he needed to get up, and he would wake up immediately at that time, such as now, he told himself before going to bed last night that he must get up early, afraid of oversleeping, so he also deliberately set three alarm clocks, but he had already gotten up before the alarm clock rang.

Tiptoeing out of the door, Mu Chen immediately rode his motorcycle to Weimin Primary School, perhaps because he was a little anxious, he completely forgot that there was still Blue Fluttershy in Weimin Primary School at this time.

Mu Chen parked the motorcycle outside Weimin Primary School, and rushed into Weimin Primary School in a hurry, when suddenly a cold light flashed in front of him, and an iron rod instantly smashed head-on.

Mu Chen was startled, and hurriedly blocked it with his hand, and then he grabbed the swinging iron rod, pulled it at him, and immediately grabbed the iron rod in his hand.

Before he could see clearly what was happening in front of him, with a loud slap, Mu Chen suddenly felt a hot pain on his face.

"Stinky busy, what are you doing?!"

As soon as Mu Chen heard the voice, he took a closer look with the help of the moonlight, and the person who slapped himself in front of him was none other than Lan Xiaodie, and when Mu Chen saw this, he immediately said to Lan Xiaodie: "It's me, Mu Chen!"

Lan Xiaodie glared at Mu Chen angrily: "Of course I know it's you, it's you who I beat, I've been squatting for so many days, and I finally caught you!"

As she spoke, Fluttershy suddenly lit the flashlight in her hand, and a blinding white light lit up instantly, making Mu Chen unable to open his eyes.

Lan Xiaodie shone the flashlight on Mu Chen's face and said, "Mu Chen, Mu Chen, have all the words you said during the day been eaten by dogs?" I didn't expect you to be such a person, I am so disappointed in you, from now on, the two of us will break off our friendship, you don't come to me again." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Mu Chen was a little inexplicable, he touched his still a little hot face and said, "Why are you going to break off your friendship with me just now, did I provoke you?"
