The dishes on the table were already cold, and the wine was not so warm, and none of the people around the table paid attention to it, looking at Steward Zhang with a pair of eyes, waiting for him to give a good idea.

"Well, if you want me to say it......." When Steward Zhang said this, he stopped, grabbed a piece of deer tendon with chopsticks, threw it in his mouth and chewed it, and nodded to indicate that it was good.

"If you want me to say, man, warm the wine again, don't you see that it's cold? The proprietors are uncomfortable, can you afford to pay for it? ”

Steward Zhang stretched out his hand and poured himself a glass, and as he was talking, he found that the wine was lukewarm, and shouted to the guy at the door.

"Yes, yes, yes, man, hurry up, listen to Steward Zhang, come, this string of money is rewarding you, don't go quickly, wait, Steward Zhang loves to eat this deer tendon, bring another plate up, Steward Zhang, what good way have you thought of?"

Wang Dongjia is relatively impulsive among these people, and he asked urging while instructing his man to push the plate of deer tendons in front of Steward Zhang.

A glass of cold wine was still drunk by Steward Zhang, and he sandwiched another piece of roast lamb chops, chewing and saying in a voice that was not too clear: "I think so, the people you are looking for are too slow to work, it is better to go to Gejia Zhuangzi to hire some, they are all idle, just come to help, there are many people, work fast, how about it?" ”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly came to their senses, and they had been thinking about how to keep the rain from falling, and they forgot to find more people.

"Good way, thank you Steward Zhang, it seems that the Ge family Zhuangzi doesn't have enough manpower, right? It's better for Steward Zhang to find the dealers of Zhang Wang's family, they work fast. Wang Dongjia slapped his thigh, became happy, and felt that there was still a shortage of people.

"Yes, Steward Zhang, it's this time, you have to help us once, I'll buy the shop for you when we go back, even if we add some money ourselves, we can't let the seeds run out." Another grain store owner sitting next to Steward Zhang also followed.

"Hey~!" Steward Zhang was embarrassed, and paused slightly, "The money was said at the beginning, that is, let you earn it, and it is not easy for you to arrange people to run around." ”

"Steward Zhang is benevolent, don't worry, if it is useful to us in the future, we will never say anything." Lu Dongjia sighed with emotion.

"This is certainly worthy of you, but ...... The Zhuang households of the Zhang and Wang families are really too tired, and there is a Li family Zhuangzi next to them, you might as well go over there and ask, really let our Zhuang family do it, it will be tiring to death, don't look at it as a Zhuang family, in fact, the main family has always treated them as relatives, the food is good, and the wages are more, but I am afraid that they will be uncomfortable, and I think that they will be tired again, my heart is ....... ”

Steward Zhang couldn't talk anymore as he spoke, twitched his nose twice, wiped the tears that flowed out with his sleeve, and pursed his mouth, looking sad.

These proprietors are not fools, they know who bought the Li family Zhuangzi, how dare they hire someone there? Unless it is tired of life, looking at Steward Zhang's expression, he is speechless.

Jin Dongjia secretly scolded in his heart, "The bullshit is going to be tired to death, just do some work, you can be tired to death in a day, is it possible to harvest a few days ago when you harvest for a few days?" Look at the strong appearance of the farmer, who believes it, it is good for the farmer, it is to eat expensive things, and to give more wages, what wages to give? Which farmer still has to pay the salary separately when he collects the land for the Zhuangzi? ’

Not only did he think so, but other people also thought the same way, scolding in their hearts, saying good things on their lips, time waits for no one.

"Steward Zhang, that's true, we really can't find anyone, let them slow down? You relax, we take care of the food, it is definitely not worse than what you give, and the salary, the person we are looking for is seven yuan a day, and give your dealer ten yuan a day, okay? ”

Lu Dongjia stared at Steward Zhang's eyes and asked.

Steward Zhang just wiped away his tears, blinked his eyes, picked up a fish head and put it on his plate, put it there twice with his mouth, and said to everyone: "This fish is good, delicious, but unfortunately, the farmers can't afford to eat this thing, don't look at the fish is not valuable, how to do it, made between the water and clouds, one will cost two taels of silver."

Ladies and gentlemen, it is better to do this, our Zhuangzi has only more than 300 people, I will give fifteen wen alone, let you hire them elsewhere, let them go, man, go to the shopkeeper and get five yuan of money, and I will return it here when I go back. ”

Speaking of the back, Steward Zhang commanded the guy who had just delivered hot water and deer tendons.

The guy agreed, turned around to leave, and Jin Dongjia hurriedly stopped, "Wait, where to find someone to work at this time?" When the others came, the rain also fell, Steward Zhang, one hundred Wen will be used by you alone, just this night. ”

"One hundred and fifty wen, not one night, the rain will stop, and if you get sick, you will have to pay for the medicine from the master's family." Steward Zhang returned a price.

"Okay, three hundred people, nothing more than a few stones of seeds." Jin Dongjia gritted his teeth and responded.

"It's not three hundred, there are about eight hundred people in the two Zhuangzi now, and the children can also help look at the pile." Steward Zhang didn't give an inch at this time.

"Okay, hurry up, eight hundred people will be eight hundred, and a hundred taels of silver will be better than the seeds of more than ten thousand taels are gone."

Jin Dongjia really doesn't want to delay any longer, if he says more, he will cut a few fewer knives and cut hundreds of rice, not to mention that it is not a matter of more than 10,000 taels of silver, and the fixed money for buying seeds has been paid, and he will make a lot of money when he buys it back, and he will lose more money if he loses it.

"Without further ado, let's go, how much money does the Ge family Zhuangzi give, you go to them yourself and say, man, send the plate of deer tendons you just put on to the master's house, the little boy and the little lady love to eat."

Steward Zhang was happy at this time, and walked outside first, as if he was in a more hurry than others.

The proprietors didn't have time to think that Steward Zhang was so shameless, and he brought it back as soon as he served a dish, and the people of Zhang's Zhuangzi were so poor that they were on this?

When they got outside, everyone saw that it was cloudy and it was already dusk, and it was already dark, so the two of them went to Gejia Zhuangzi to find someone to negotiate the price, and the rest looked at Steward Zhang.

"Oh, it's dark, how is this good? You have to light a lantern, the torch is easy to run through the water. Steward Zhang looked at the sky and said embarrassedly.

"Then order it, isn't it hard to buy lanterns?" Wang Dongjia asked anxiously.

"Let's go, go to the grocery store, I'm in a hurry, I don't know if they have it there." As Steward Zhang spoke, he strode in the direction of the grocery store, followed closely behind.

When he arrived at the place, Steward Zhang shouted to Ergou who was walking back and forth in the market, "Ergou, are there any lanterns?" Need...... Four hundred are needed, everyone, and see if the old people in the Zhuangzi are also using them. ”

"Yes, yes, use it, use it, one hundred and fifty wen per person, how many use as many, two dogs, right? Are there so many lanterns? ”

A proprietor said there, he has no time to talk about it, what do you Steward Zhang say and do, you just drive the pig over, as long as it can play lanterns and understand how to illuminate, it is also one hundred and fifty Wen.

"Huh? Steward Zhang, do you want so many lanterns? This one......? ”

"Don't do this or that, to be honest, yes or no?" Steward Zhang impatiently interrupted Ergou's words and asked.

"Yes, there are exactly four hundred and fifty lanterns, but they have already been ordered by others, and they will have to be sent early tomorrow morning, if this is given to you......?"

Without waiting for Ergou to finish speaking, Wang Dongjia stepped in front of Ergou and shouted: "How much is it in total, and the compensation is also counted on us, hurry up and get the lantern and the candle." ”

"Okay, let's take it, two hundred wen a lamp, each with ten candles, I'll tell you, the wax ......."

"I beg you, hurry up and take it." Wang Dongjia was almost crying.

Ergou was sensible this time, and in a blink of an eye ran to the grocery store, where there seemed to be someone waiting for a long time, and when he went in and out, four hundred and fifty lanterns, and it didn't take half an hour to put in the candles and light them.

The young women and children on the Zhuangzi also came out at this time, waiting there, the efficiency is so high, the hearts of all the owners who watched were dripping blood, not prepared in advance, how could it be so fast? But those people were empty-handed.

"Steward Zhang, they came empty-handed?" A proprietor asked with a glare.

"Oh, they're too delayed, who went to find someone, didn't they say, take over the land, did they forget to tell? Ergou, do you have a sickle here? Is it the kind of scythe that we made specially and is better than other places? Need...... If you want five hundred, you will calculate how much it is, and then you will ask these proprietors. ”

Steward Zhang was also annoyed, and shouted at Ergou, and saw Ergou go in to get the sickle, and shouted to those villagers: "Everyone heard, let you come to help harvest rice, one hundred and fifty wen per person, even if it is a person, wait until it is done, remember to put the sickle in one place, this sickle is ......." ”

"Steward Zhang, look, the sickle is here, let's work first, okay?" Jin Dongjia couldn't hold his breath anymore and felt more and more stuffy.

"Take the sickle and work, the children watch the pile, and the old man and the woman make the lantern." Steward Zhang immediately shouted, those people were not slow, and they ran over to get things with their own division of labor.

Waiting for them to do it, Steward Zhang wiped the sweat from the stuffy and said to the owners: "Everyone, I'll let people prepare the meal, according to the soup eaten at noon, one less fungus, let you save a little, how about replacing it with mutton?" ”

"Okay, Steward Zhang looks at the arrangement, it's Gezhuang's people over there, right? Hurry up, run two steps. One of the proprietors didn't want to continue haggling over other things, so he agreed, saw the light of the fire over there, and waved his hand and shouted loudly.

There are few people in the Ge family, only a hundred came, as for how much money was spent, Steward Zhang didn't care, this can be regarded as helping them once, and they have more income.

"Steward Zhang, I admit it this time, don't worry, I will never fight the idea of Zhang Wang's two Zhuangzi in the future." The proprietor surnamed Lu watched those people harvest and said to Steward Zhang who was standing next to him.
