Chapter 54: Recruiting Pillars

[The exiles in Liaodong are miserable, and the book friends also support it, don't hesitate to collect, don't be soft on the recommendation, thank you for the crabs :)]

After the pillar entered with more than 100 mermaids, the threshing floor suddenly became lively.

When the women saw the big stove being built and the straw hut where the stakes had just been erected, they were even more convinced that the work to be done by the owner was serious, and they did not need to be greeted by pillars, but each of them went to help the masons or carpenters.

This made Chu Fan very satisfied, sure enough, the subjective initiative of people who are hungry and cold is the strongest, as long as they are given a little hope, they will pay ten times and a hundred times the effort.

However, when he saw the nine stove workers, he couldn't help but be a little strange, he originally thought that with such good conditions, the pillar would definitely give priority to arranging his own people, but he didn't expect the pillar to be unmoved, but chose a few honest middle-aged men, and his little brothers were just responsible for maintaining order.

"Brother Zhuzi, is eight dollars a day enough?" Chu Fan thought about it and asked the pillar beside him.

"Enough! Enough is enough! The villagers couldn't believe such a good thing at first, and it took a lot of trouble for me to talk about it. The pillar bowed, his face full of gratitude.

"In that case, why didn't you let your own brother do the work, but instead chose an outsider?" Chu Fan asked.

"Childe, when you said that the person you wanted to recruit had families and children, and several of us were singles, how could we be qualified?" The pillar replied with a bitter face.

Chu Fan didn't expect him to be so sincere, and he couldn't help but look down on him in his heart.

"Besides, I also know that Childe's intention in doing this is to pity us rootless hard-working people, and let people with families work to save a few more lives." Zhu Zi's eyes turned a little red as he spoke.

Chu Fan glanced at him in surprise, he could figure out his intentions, and this pillar was careful enough.

"How many of us are strong, where can we not find food to eat? Why bother with the villagers to save this life-saving opportunity? The pillar said emotionally.

Since ancient times, wealth has touched people's hearts, and they can give the benefits they have to others, such people are either big treachers and evils who have nothing else to ask for, or they are upright men who value love and righteousness.

Chu Fan looked at the pillar's thick black eyebrows and clean eyes, and became more and more curious, what kind of person is he?

During the chat, Chu Fan quickly figured out the pillar's life experience.

He was a Weiren of Haizhou in Liaodong, and after the Tartars broke through Liaoyang, they went south, and their village was slaughtered, and he and his father happened to go out that day and escaped a catastrophe. The father and son fled westward, and his father joined the army and became a member of the Liaodong Water Battalion, but unfortunately died in battle.

Since then, the lonely Xia Guozhu has come to Dengzhou, because he dares to fight, and soon seven brothers who are orphans like him and are not much different in age will soon gather around him, struggling to survive by selling coolies.

After hearing this, Chu Fan had already determined that this pillar and his brother were the candidates for the escort team he was looking for, so he asked tentatively, "Then what will you brothers do in the future?" Carrying the bag next? ”

"What can you do without carrying a bag," the pillar replied without thinking about it, his face gloomy, "We don't have any skills, so we can only sell coolies." ”

Chu Fan patted him on the shoulder with emotion, and blurted out, "Pillar, follow me!" ”

Zhuzi's face was full of overjoyed expressions, but after thinking for a long time, he asked Ai Ai, "Childe, of course I want to do it with you, but what can I do?" ”

Chu Fan then told him the idea of forming an escort team, and repeatedly emphasized that this was a job with his head pinned to the waistband of his trousers, and let the pillar think clearly before replying to himself - Chu Fan doesn't like to hide things, and he must say ugly things in front, so as not to come back to talk about it in the future.

After listening to this, Zhuzi frowned and thought deeply, and asked timidly for a long time, "Childe, our cheap life is not worth much, maybe one day we will be wrapped in straw mats, and Childe can see that it is our blessing...... It's just that this salary, I still have to ask for my brothers, don't blame the son. ”

"One tael or four cents of silver a month." Chu Fan looked directly at the pillar and said.

"One, two, four?" The pillar's eyes widened suddenly, and he cried out in disbelief--he couldn't help but be surprised, you know, the big guy who helped the shopkeeper in Dengzhou City only had one or two silver a month.

"Yes, the standard of Ning Yuan's soldiers, I won't let you bleed in vain." Chu Fan said lightly.

"! Let's do it! The ecstatic pillar was about to lie on the ground as he spoke, but was pulled by Chu Fan.

"Pillar, we are all men, don't kneel down at every turn...... Remember, I don't want to do that. "Chu Fan has long been very awkward about kneeling, so he plans to start correcting this trend from the pillar.

The pillar grinned, rubbed his hands and didn't know what to say, just a strong thank-you, Chu Fan asked him to prepare first, and by the way, he helped Ge Bi recruit the sailors on the ship - the threshing floor still needs Chu Fan to take a little time to straighten out before he can start training.

Zhu Zi went with his brothers in high spirits, and Chu Fan began to make work clothes for these women—cloth and cotton had already been procured.

The so-called work clothes are cotton robes with cotton. Among the more than 100 women, half of them were good at needlework, and Chu Fan singled them out and asked them to tailor them to everyone.

When he heard that the proprietor was going to make clothes for himself, the whole threshing floor was stirred up at once, and it was full of joyful chatter.

It was Aunt Cao who gave Xu Wanyun the size, and she muttered excitedly while measuring, "Wanyun, our lives are so good, we have met a great good person...... Before the work began, a set of clothes was prepared. ”

Xu Wanyun also had mixed feelings, reached out and gently stroked the thick cotton cloth, her eyes became confused - the last time she wore new clothes, it was before the fall of Liaoyang!

Chu Fan walked through the crowd, nodding frequently to accept the sincere thanks of the Liao people, and was stunned when he walked to Aunt Cao'er's side—he recognized this as the poor woman he had seen in front of the ready-to-wear shop that day.

Aunt Cao knelt down with a puff, kowtowing while saying the auspicious words of "longevity and longevity" and "prince Wandai", Xu Wanyun also knelt down, but the corner of her eyes was secretly looking at this young owner.

Chu Fan helped them up with emotion, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I, Chu Fan, have always been good at talking, as long as you work hard, I will never deduct the salary of eight eldest sons a day." ”

Aunt Cao nodded again and again, and said "We believe" one after another, and there were already tears in the corners of her eyes.

Xu Wanyun didn't say it, but looking at Chu Fan's clear eyes, she didn't know how many times she shouted in her heart, I also believe it, I believe that you are the best proprietor in the world.

Even, a thought can't be suppressed.

Follow this man, your life will inevitably change!
