Chapter 37: Buying long-term labor
It's just, where is this limestone? Where exactly?
Jiang Yu'er has been stripped of her hair countless times, but she doesn't know where there is limestone. If she doesn't figure it out, Jiang Yuer usually just doesn't want to think about it first, and when she can figure it out one day, this matter may be solved.
At present, the most important thing is to find long-term and short-term workers first, and to reclaim the wasteland in Xishan. This year, I can't plant sweet potatoes, so I will plant wheat first. If you have tartary buckwheat, you can also get some and plant them back. You know, tartary buckwheat is a good thing, its powder can not only be used for cooking, make soup gnocchi, its shell can also be used as a pillow, buckwheat pillow, it is a rare good thing in the past life.
"Where can I buy this long-term worker?" At this moment, Jiang Yu'er was entangled again. I bought a long-term worker, and there are only these three houses in the family, and there are two dilapidated houses on the other side of the old house, how can I live here?
One thing didn't stop, and another thing followed. She is a new human being in the 21st century, and it is a crime to sell human beings and the like. But in this era, buying and selling human beings has become a reasonable thing.
If you have a family background and few servants to follow, you will seem to have no status.
Jiang Yu'er could only scold silently in her heart, the evil old society, the feudal idea of eating people and not spitting out bones.
The next day, Jiang Yuer told her brother about buying a long-term job. Jiang Amao also felt that since he and his younger brother had gone to school at home, it was not possible for his sister to be at home alone. It's just that she's a girl, and it's really inconvenient.
After thinking about it, he said: "Then I'll find a few people to help clean up the old house, and when the time comes, I will buy long-term workers, and let them live there!" Anyway, there's a kitchen over there, so make some food and they should be able to handle it. ”
Jiang Yu'er nodded and said, "Brother! When you are looking for someone, remember to extend to the left and right behind our old house, and make two more rooms out, so that even if there are a few more people, you can still live. ”
Jiang Amao nodded and agreed.
This time, looking for someone, he still went to the craftsmen who had built a house for his family before, repaired the original old house, and it didn't take long to build two more huts, and those people readily agreed.
What Jiang Yu'er didn't know was that she was discussing with her brother about buying a long-term job, and it had already entered the ears of another person word for word.
"You go and arrange it, find a few savvy ones." After listening to this, the man thought thoughtfully for a while, and then ordered: "I want to see what she can do as a little girl?" ”
The next day happened to be in the market, Jiang Yuer took the opportunity to take her brother to the town, she planned to go to Renyazi first to see if there were any long-term and short-term workers she liked, anyway, there were still a few hundred taels of silver in her hand now, she thought, it shouldn't be too much of a problem to buy a few long-term workers.
The brother and sister went to Baicaotang first, and if she wanted to say that in this town, she was most familiar with the only one that was Baicaotang. asked the shopkeeper Zhan, and the shopkeeper Zhan recommended the two of them to the people he thought were more reliable. After thanking them, the brother and sister walked towards their teeth.
This tooth's surname is Gu, and his name is Fang. Everyone called him Lao Gu, or Gu Lao. When Jiang Yu'er and the others came, the shopkeeper Zhan specially explained. said that this person was about forty years old, and let the brother and sister call him Uncle Gu.
After the brother and sister met someone, they explained that they were introduced by the shopkeeper Zhan. Na Gu Yazi didn't say a word, and directly took the two of them to the backyard and called the young strong man out.
Looking at the strong men standing in two rows, Jiang Yuer wanted to ask, are they here to pick a nursing home or a long-term worker? In the end, I could only say: "Uncle Gu, my family is just an ordinary peasant family, we just want to buy a few long-term workers, not to take care of the hospital." ”
The ancient recipe looked like he had known it for a long time, and said: "These are refugees from other countries, and if they sell themselves to me, they want to find a stable place to do their work!" "Gu Fang is a person who can speak, and they all say that the most eloquent person in the world, except for Yazi, who is a matchmaker. Jiang Yu'er has seen the teeth today, although she doesn't know what other teeth are, but she has seen this ancient recipe.
In the end, it seemed that Jiang Yu'er didn't buy these teeth in his hand, and he felt guilty.
In the end, Jiang Yu'er and her brother and sister bought four long-term jobs and went home. This is the first part of Zhangzhuang Village, which can make the people in the village rare. However, the next day, they saw Jiang Yu'er's house and took all the long-term workers to the wasteland under the West Mountain. Their big scalper was among them.
Jiang Yu'er distributed the rake she had built at home to a few people and told them how to use it. The younger brother was tending the sheep on the side, and she used a sickle to cut off all the extra thatch, twigs, and so on, and piled them into piles.
When it sounds, set a fire and burn all the thatch. You know, these are fertilizers. If you put it in the field, it will only fertilize the land, and there will be no share of thin land.
Those people didn't understand Jiang Yu'er's approach at first, but when they came, the master had already explained, no matter how this girl arranged it, they just listened to it. The rest is to keep this girl safe.
Although they don't understand what the master means by such an arrangement, they can only listen to the master's opinion, and even if it is wrong, they must be wrong to the end. Foolishness and loyalty, in fact, is also a major characteristic of the ancients.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, Jiang Yuer gave all the long-term workers a holiday and sent them a lot of food. She doesn't know much about cooking, but she knows what food to eat and what to eat is not bad for people.
Since it's a festival, it's going to be lively. At home, Jiang Amao cooks, worships ancestors, and then eats. In ancient times, there was a saying in the countryside that important festivals and meals to worship ancestors had to be made by the head of the family.
The Jiang family's parents left early, and the head of the family fell to Jiang Amao. In fact, there is another saying in big families, that is, gentlemen are far away from cooking. Those men, pretentious, felt that the chores in the kitchen should be done by the cook.
Actually, not really. In modern times, famous chefs are all men. It is only in this era of male superiority and inferiority that those who are pretentious will feel that it is a disgraceful thing to work in the kitchen.
After the Lantern Festival, it is a matter of the elder brother and younger brother going to school. Jiang Yu'er called a long-term worker to drive the ox cart and put all the bags prepared for his brother and brother. Jiang Amao frowned as he looked at the car.
Is this the rhythm that my sister wants him to follow Ziming and empty the house?
