Chapter 272: Settlement of Wages

The next day, as expected, according to Chu Xintian's prediction, more than a hundred trees were cut down in one day.

In order to build a house, Chu Xintian's family cut down hundreds of trees on the hillside, however, at first glance, the trees on the mountain did not decrease significantly.

In the end, after finishing the work, Chu Xintian did not let everyone go home, but called everyone to his home and made a sumptuous dinner to entertain everyone.

Chu Xintian remembered that Grandma Li was at home, and Bai Yongjing went to Grandma Li's house and asked her to have dinner together.

After eating, Chu Xintian took out the silver.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Niu, Brother Fusheng, these days, everyone is working hard for me."

And when he had said this, he gave each of them two taels of silver that was in his hand.

With so much money, we couldn't believe our eyes.

"Yongjing, why did you give so much money" Niu Li was the first to speak, she quickly picked up four taels of silver and put it back in Chu Xintian's hand.

She and Chu Xintian are good friends, and Chu Xintian has helped her family a lot before, so she wants to help Chu Xintian this time, and she doesn't want money at all.

What's more, even if it's paid, you don't need to give a person that much money

"That's it, sister-in-law, I can't ask for silver, I don't have much to do to work, I'm just helping" Li Fusheng also put the silver given by Chu Xintian on the table and refused to ask for it.

What Li Fusheng said was very realistic, and he felt that Chu Xintian's work was much easier than the long-term and short-term work outside.

In other words, a few days ago, he went to Wang Dahu's house to do oil extraction work, and after a day's work, he was so tired that he took off a layer of skin all over his body, but even so, he only received a salary of 80 wen.

But this time, it was not easy for Chu Xintian to cut down trees, however, there was a magic hammer as a helper in Chu Xintian's house, and his short knife that cut iron like mud helped a lot, and the time for cutting trees was greatly shortened, and it was effortless at all.

Not only Li Fusheng, but all of them thought that it was easy to do this job, and each person gave two taels of silver, which was too much.

Grandma Li also said: "Second daughter-in-law Bai, Fusheng has some strength, what can you do with some work, no matter how rich you are, you can't spend it like this, you still have to raise your son, it's not easy to make money, you have to save some money"

Chu Xintian saw that everyone refused to ask for it, so he immediately returned the money to everyone: "Grandma Li, sister-in-law, Brother Niu, Brother Fusheng, I used to say that I would ask you to work, I must give money, but now I can't break my promise If you don't want money, when I have work to do, how can I be embarrassed to go to you again You collected the money, it is a great favor for me."

Chu Xintian said so, but everyone still refused to ask for it.

Chu Xintian talked with Grandma Li for a long time, and Grandma Li said: "Second daughter-in-law Bai, I just said, you give me two taels of silver, it's too much, how embarrassed are we to ask for seventy or eighty yuan for others to work every day, even if it is very heavy physical work, it is only one hundred and fifty yuan, you can give two taels of silver at once, why are you so stupid?"

After Grandma Li finished speaking, they nodded one after another.

Chu Xintian's heart flowed through a warm current.

Chu Xintian knew that everyone refused to ask for money for her.

Although these people are not her relatives, they really care about her.

Because of this, Chu Xintian couldn't treat them badly

"Grandma Li, sister-in-law, Brother Niu, Brother Fusheng, listen to me, I know that you are good to our mother and son, and think about us everywhere, I am really grateful but, I give you these wages, I also have my reasons, these days, if you help cut the wood and sell it, you can get at least one hundred taels of silver If I don't cut these pieces of wood from Beishan, but go outside to buy them, how can I get one hundred taels Now, with your help, I saved one hundred taels of silver, The wages I give you are equal to the one hundred taels of wood I bought with this money, so I don't pay you much, so you can take it, don't have any burden, otherwise, I really feel that I don't want to go, more importantly, I still have an important job to do, and I hope you can help me. If you don't get paid today, I'm really embarrassed to let you do your next job."

After listening to Chu Xintian's words, everyone was no longer polite and accepted the silver.
