Chapter 50: Pie in the Sky

[Chu Fan has already begun to show his strength, all book friends have also helped to foil it, collections, recommendation votes, and evaluation votes just smash it! ] I also hope that book friends will point out the lack of crabs in the book review area, so that "Battle of Liaodong" will become more and more exciting :)]

With two large bowls of noodles in his stomach, Xia Guozhu finally had a feeling of fullness that he had not felt for a long time, and exaggeratedly stroked his stomach and said to Chu Fan, "I'm full, just tell me if I have anything." ”

In fact, according to his appetite, it is not a problem to have another bowl, but he feels that he must be content, and having a full seven or eight percent has already taken a great advantage of Chu Fan.

Chu Fan had just finished eating the bowl of noodles, and after putting down his chopsticks, he muttered, "Brother Zhuzi, I am a businessman, specializing in running the Japanese country. Now I have a batch of goods in my hands, and I need to recruit some hired workers to make a lot of money, do you think anyone on the side of the Sand River is willing to do it? ”

"Yes! Absolutely! The pillar didn't even think about it, and took it in one bite.

There's a reason he's so straightforward, of course.

Since the Liaodong Rebellion, a large number of displaced people have fled across the sea and gathered in Dengzhou and other coastal prefectures and counties. The forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, it is inevitable that the good and the bad are uneven, there are always so many people who steal chickens and dogs, and cheat and abduct people who plague the township, which makes people like Xia Guozhu who keep to themselves - the locals are already dissatisfied with the Liaodong refugees, and now they are even more hostile, so the locals can not use the Liaodong people, even if there is a shortage of people and must be recruited, the conditions are extremely overwhelming.

For example, if you hire locals to cut wheat, not to mention three meals a day, you can't lose ten big money; If you hire Liaodong refugees, let alone money, if you can eat enough, the main family has a conscience.

There are too many displaced people in Liaodong, and there are too few such jobs, so no matter how harsh the conditions are, they often fight for their heads.

Now Chu Fan took the initiative to recruit the exiles from Liaodong to work, which was a life-saving living bodhisattva for the exiles who were struggling on the line of life and death, so the pillar hurriedly agreed to it, for fear that Chu Fan would change his mind.

Of course, Chu Fan knew the trick, so he laid out the conditions first, "I have a few rules, I don't know if you can abide by them?" ”

The pillar's chest thumped, "Childe, just say a few rules, that is, dozens or hundreds of us absolutely don't blink our eyes - you don't know how sad the villagers are!" ”

Chu Fan nodded in understanding, stretched out his index finger and said, "This first rule is to keep it secret, but anyone or anything I see there must not let others know, this is also the most important thing." ”

"Childe, just rest assured," Zhu Zi said, his eyes widened, "If you have a job to do, you still have to talk nonsense, I won't tear them up!" ”

Chu Fan stretched out his second finger, "This second is to be obedient." This time the work is more rushed, and the shorter the time, the better; There is nothing difficult to do, as long as you are obedient, you can do it well; The ugly words are ahead, if the work is delayed because of the fuss, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people, and don't cry if a big boy can't get it at that time. ”

"And wages?" The pillar's face was incredible.

"Of course there is a salary!" Chu Fan accentuated his tone, "And it's the same as the local people's wages, eight a day!" Make money! ”

“……”

Not only the pillar at this time, but his little brothers opened their mouths wide in surprise, looking at Chu Fan like a fairy, their eyes full of stars.

"What? Don't want to? Chu Fan smiled slightly.

The pillar reacted, and asked in a trembling voice, "Childe, is this true?" ”

Chu Fan said, "There is no lie!" ”

Looking at Chu Fan's clear eyes, Zhuzi finally believed that pie had fallen from the sky, and after calming down a little, he asked, "What do you want us to do with this job?" ”

Chu Fan lowered his third finger, "This is the third point I want to say...... The people I want to recruit this time are specially responsible for the goods, a total of 120 people, except for ten men, all the others are women, and those who have families and children are preferred; Every day, I will see work at four o'clock in the afternoon, and I will start work at two o'clock in the afternoon; Eight big bucks is just basic, if you do it well and do it fast, there are also rewards...... These people are short-term workers, and the work must not be completed for more than a month...... Don't ask what you do, but I can tell you that the work is very light, and it is mostly sitting...... It's hard work brother Zhu, help me Zhang Luo. ”

Chu Fan is not ready to treat the Liao people harshly, the reason is very simple, he will move overseas in the future, but it will definitely not be only a few people in their family - they have to farm, produce, and sell overseas, how can they do it without manpower?

It is difficult for the Chinese to move to the land, and it will be too difficult for the local people in Shandong to follow at that time; And these Liao people are alone, which is the best target for Chu Fan to recruit.

There is no better way to recruit people than to subdue them, and if you squeeze them like everyone else in the first dealing, how can you still say that you can subdue them?

When the pillar heard that it was all serious work, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart - although both sides of the Shahe River were all rich men with no food and clothing, they didn't dare to do the murder and arson - nodded again and again, "Childe, just rest assured, I'll go back and tell the villagers that such a good thing is just going to blow my head." ”

Chu Fan smiled and said, "That's good, tomorrow you recruit all the people and bring them to Wanzikou Village in the east, and I have my own arrangements." ”

After speaking, Chu Fan took out two taels of silver and said to Xia Guozhu, "Brother Zhuzi, I can't let you help in vain, this bit of silver will be considered your reward, don't be too little." ”

The pillar is just that, but the little brothers behind him are all staring at each other - they are usually tired and tired, and they rarely even see money, when have they seen this white silver!

The pillar excused himself for a long time, and then he took the silver and put it in his arms, and took a group of little brothers to prepare to return to the Shahe bridgehead.

Not long after he walked out of the door of the noodle shop, he came back again, and he knelt on the ground and slammed his head at Chu Fan three times, muttering in his mouth, "Childe, you are really a good person!" …… I have kowtowed to you on behalf of the folks in Liaodong! ”

Before Chu Fan could reach out to help him, he had already gotten up and wiped his tears and left.

Lack of food and clothing brings not only hunger, but more importantly, despair of life, this kind of dark day has no end in sight, and it will drive people crazy - although Chu Fan has never encountered such a situation, but he can more or less experience this desperate mood as a human being in two lives.

So when there is a glimmer of hope in despair, these people will desperately grasp it, just as a person who is about to drown grasps the last straw.

And the person who brings the dawn will naturally become the object of these people's following, gratitude, trust, loyalty, and spontaneous birth - the world is sometimes very simple, and profit is the best footnote to almost all actions.

What Chu Fan gave to these Liao people at the moment is this kind of dawn, of course, it is only the dawn at present, Chu Fan believes that when he comes back from the Wa Kingdom, he should have the ability to turn this dawn into reality!
