Chapter 230: Hundreds of acres of mountainous land
However, Li Zheng said to Tang Xiaosu meaningfully: "Xiao Su, although it is said that I have given you hundreds of acres of mountainous land, but it is too close to the deep mountains, so don't go, just do activities in this shallow mountain, if you go to the deep mountains, it will be great if there is danger in the future." ”
The proud old man Tang also nodded: "Yes, yes, Xiao Su, what your grandfather said is right, you must listen to your grandfather Lizheng's words,
More than 1,000 acres of mountainous land in this shallow mountain is enough for us, don't go into the deep mountains, it's not safe in the deep mountains. ”
"yes, I see." Tang Xiaosu nodded in response.
But she has her own thoughts in her heart, although she can't enter the deep mountain, but the three wolf cubs in her family should be able to.
It is said that since the three wolf cubs of her family entered their house, they could not see their shadows except when they were eating.
Because they either hide under the bed and fall asleep, or lie down in the sun and fall asleep, anyway, they still sleep except sleep.
Tang Xiaosu felt that they were wolves, at least they had to be a little wolf, and they had to lead her to the forest for a spin in the future.
Tang Xiaosu thought of this, waved his hand arrogantly, and said to Li Zheng and the others: "Grandpa Li Zheng, in the future, the people in the village will be busy, and now is not yet the time to be busy with farming, hurry up and let all families take action." ”
So the Tang family began to recruit workers, not for anything else, but for the men and women in the village, and what they had to do was not to do anything else, but to pull out the barren grass in the mountains, and other things, to put it bluntly, in fact, it was not a barren.
Tang Xiaosu decided that after the weeds on this hill were removed, she would plant the potatoes immediately.
Tang Xiaosu knew that it was not possible to grow other crops in this mountain, but if you planted potatoes, it would definitely bear fruit.
And she could grow more fruit trees, like those on the edge of the mountains.
She could try it and see if she could come up with ideas to get the seedlings out of those trees so that they could be transplanted somewhere else.
The people who were originally idle at home, as soon as they heard that the Tang family was recruiting workers and paying them wages, they all flocked to the Tang family like a swarm of bees.
Tang Xiaosu saw that almost all the people in the village were moved, and he couldn't help but smack his tongue.
Tang Xiaosu planned to invite people into several groups, one group to dig potatoes, one wave to level the barren mountain, and the other wave, to stay at home to cook and boil water for the workers.
However, for this cooking and boiling of water, only the few people who cooked at their house yesterday were selected.
Tang Xiaosu shouted to the bustling crowd: "Uncles and uncles, aunts and aunts, listen to me, the workers I want to recruit are divided into two groups, and one wave is digging potatoes at the foot of the mountain.
The other part of the people went to the hill I just bought to help get rid of some weeds and so on.
However, the work of digging potatoes does not require much labor, so only women in their 40s and 20s are needed.
If a man is a man, he will go up the mountain to pull weeds and remove wasteland, whether it is digging potatoes or going to the mountains to pull weeds and remove wasteland, it is ten yuan a day, and five yuan a day is half a day.
And I take care of a meal, and every meal has meat that everyone likes to eat, and if you want to, you can line up on my left.
Someone will come and register later, and the woman digging potatoes will go to my right hand side and line up, and the same will happen later.
But don't envy those who dig potatoes, because the people who dig potatoes, I will only choose one person in the family,
After all, digging potatoes is equivalent to going to the mountains to pull weeds, and it is easier to remove the wasteland, and we must ensure that there will be one person in every family doing the easy work. ”
Tang Xiaosu's words fell, and the crowd chattered and discussed.
Tang Xiaosu didn't hear it, and said to San Lang Shiro and the three of Wuyi: "Brother Wuyi, you take the eldest brother and the second brother to register the person who digs potatoes,
Big brother, second brother, you pay attention to staring, remember, there must be only one woman in every family, every household, and many resolutely do not choose. ”
Whether it was Wuyi, or Saburo and Shiro, they all nodded in unison, and then went back to the room, went to get a pen and paper, and got ready.
Tang Xiaosu found Tang Yaorong in a daze in the room again, thinking about his future: "Uncle, can I ask you for a favor?" ”
Tang Yaozu came back to his senses: "Xiao Su, you are still so polite to your uncle, just say anything quickly." ”
Only then did Tang Xiaosu say his request: "Uncle, do you see a long queue of people at the door?" ”
Tang Yaorong glanced at it, then nodded: "See, didn't your family start recruiting?" Those are the ones who came to apply. ”
Tang Xiaosu said with a smile: "I want the uncle to help us register, register all the names of these people, and then let my master take these people to the mountains to pull weeds and eliminate wasteland." ”
Tang Yaorong originally thought that he couldn't do anything, he was angry with himself, and he was doubting his future life.
So as soon as Tang Yaorong heard Tang Xiaosu's words, he felt that he had won his own heart, so he stood up without saying a word: "It's just a registration, of course it's okay, even if you ask the uncle to be your supervisor, the uncle has no opinion." ”
Tang Xiaosu shook his head and waved his hand cooperatively: "No, uncle, the overseer doesn't need you to go." ”
When Tang Yaorong heard this, his eyes darkened, he really wanted to find a little more to do to prove himself.
But just recording the names of these people would take a moment.
After all these names are recorded, won't he become an idler again.
The most unacceptable thing for Tang Yaorong now is that he has become an idler, so a lonely look appeared on his face unconsciously.
Tang Xiaosu seemed to guess Tang Yaorong's thoughts, and suddenly said: "Uncle, we don't need you to be the supervisor, because the supervisors are Grandpa Lizheng, Grandpa Wu, and my grandfather, and the three of them, and the three of them are enough.
However, our family lacks a bookkeeper, I don't know if the uncle is interested in being this bookkeeper, helping us manage the accounts, and giving wages to these villagers who come to work in the future. ”
Tang Yaorong was stunned: "Mr. Ledger? Xiao Su, you also think too highly of your uncle, after all, the affairs of this account room still have to be handed over to your own family, and the uncle is an outsider in the end. ”
Tang Xiaosu denied: "What did the uncle say, although we have separated, but the uncle is still my uncle, we are still the nephews and nieces of the uncle, we are all a big family,
Our family broke bones and tendons, and said two words, besides, except for you uncle, who can be as powerful as you uncle. ”
Tang Yaorong's heart was hot, no one had ever been so confident in him except for the top prize.
At that moment, Tang Yaorong assured Tang Xiaosu: "Xiao Su, don't worry, as long as the uncle is here, the uncle will help you make the account clear, and the uncle will never be greedy for a penny." ”
Tang Xiaosu opened his mouth and raised a big smile: "Uncle, Xiao Su believes in you." ”
Everyone lined up in an orderly manner to register their names, and there was no one who was not disciplined during this period.
And on the side of Wuyi and San Lang Shiro, the people queuing up to dig potatoes are also in order, as Tang Xiaosu said before, the family only sent one person, so the registration speed is unusually fast, after the registration is completed, San Lang and Shiro take them and immediately set off to dig potatoes.
And Tang Yaorong's team was still very long, so Wuyi spontaneously came to Tang Yaorong's side and asked Tang Yaorong: "Uncle, do you need help?" ”
Tang Yaorong knew that Wuyi was also literate and hyphenated, and looked at the queue that there was still a long line.
Tang Yaorong was afraid of delaying his work, so he nodded at Wuyi: "It's just right, Wuyi, since you're here, then the two of us will work together!"
I still have so many people here, so let them go to you halfway, and the two of us will register together, which will be much faster. ”
Wu Yi smiled, sat down without saying a word, took his pen and paper and said to the people in line: "Please consciously line up here, from now on, both sides of the registration will be carried out here." ”
Wu Yi and Tang Yaorong started to register at the same time, and the speed was much faster, it didn't take long for all the people to register, and those who had finished registering, without Tang Xiaosu's instructions, directly pulled out their legs and ran up the mountain.
Looking like that, I thought there was some treasure on the mountain, and one by one I was afraid that I would be too late to grab it.
Tang Xiaosu looked at the backs of the energetic people leaving, and said to the Liu family beside him: "Mother, tonight's meal is a little richer, everyone has enough strength to work, so make more meat dishes." ”
Since Liu was born, he has never seen such a big scene.
Liu couldn't make up his mind about cooking, so he had to pull Tang Xiaosu and keep asking: "Xiaosu, you give your mother an idea and tell your mother which dishes are suitable for your mother, my mother has never gone through such a big thing, this is the first time." ”
Liu, who was nervous, still had a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden.
"Mother, just make a pork stewed vermicelli, didn't Brother Wuyi get back a pheasant? Anyway, I haven't taken it to the town to sell it, kill two pheasants, and make a chicken stew with potatoes,
And the potato, which can be cut, washed, and put there until I get back, and we'll make it again, and the pig's intestine,
But the pig's large intestine, I have already cleaned it up yesterday, just wait for me to come back and make these two dishes, I will come back a little earlier,
Also, mother, the two wild boars killed yesterday, aren't those ribs still left? We wash two more ribs and cook a large pot of pork rib soup. ”
