Chapter 5 I'm here to apply

"Where did the thief come from? Get out of my cornfield now, or don't blame me for being unkind! ”

For some reason, when Loulan saw this guy's "shape", she immediately thought of a thief, so she picked up the hoe on the ground and shouted at this guy while waving it.

"Ahh Don't, don't get excited, honorable farmer! This obscene guy was startled when he saw Loulan wielding a hoe, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain: "Don't get me wrong, I'm here to apply!" ”

"Apply? What should I hire? Loulan was stunned when she heard this, but the hoe in her hand was not put down, this guy in front of her didn't look like a good person, so she was still on guard.

"Ahh Hello, Dear Farmer! Seeing that Loulan didn't continue to drive him, the lewd guy immediately lost a smile and showed a mouthful of yellowed teeth: "Please allow me to introduce myself, I am Jack the rat man, and I have come to help you farm the land, Lord Farmer." ”

"It turned out to be a rat man, that's a monster, no wonder it looks so ugly!" Lou Lan muttered to herself in her heart, and then immediately waved her hand and said, "I know how to farm the land myself, I don't need your help, you better leave quickly." ”

Hearing this, Jack the Nezumi grinned and said unhurriedly: "Dear Farmer, it seems that you have just taken over this place, and you don't know much about this dream farm!" Even though you can farm the land yourself, you shouldn't waste your precious time on such trivial things. ”

As he spoke, Jack also stole a glance at Loulan, his eyes flashing with a sly light.

Although Loulan looked at it with a full face, she felt that this Jack was not a good thing, but after listening to his words, she couldn't help but ask: "Listen to what you mean, you know a lot about this place, so tell me, what should I do now?" ”

Jack did not answer Loulan's words, but untied the burden on his back, put it on the ground, and then "staggered" to a corn seedling, climbed to the top of the corn seedling in the blink of an eye, then looked around, and jumped down again.

"Hey, I said be careful, don't spoil my corn." Loulan said with some distress.

Jack returned to the ground, first carrying the dirty and broken burden on his back again, and then said to Loulan: "When it comes to understanding this place, I have a lot of say, you know, I am an old qualified person who has dealt with your first three farmers, dear farmer, may I ask, where is your storage warehouse?" ”

When Loulan heard this, her heart immediately "chuckled": "It seems that this ugly rat man is not simple, not to mention it, he even knows about the storage warehouse." ”

The rancher's handbook on Loulan's bed is very clear: collect a thousand catties of corn and exchange it for a storage warehouse!

Loulan didn't forget this, he was preparing to harvest corn today, and then plant corn again, on the one hand, the cultivated land can't be idle, otherwise there may be no food at home, on the other hand, he also wants to quickly exchange a warehouse and come back to see how important this thing is.

"As you can see, I don't have a storage warehouse yet, but I really don't see what it has to do with whether I need your help or not?" Loulan didn't answer Jack's question directly, and subtly asked Jack a new question, hoping to get more information from him.

"It seems that you are very smart, respected farmer, but smart is not everything, a thousand catties of corn is not a small amount, do you really think that it only takes five days for you to make up so much corn?" Jack said slowly.

When Loulan heard this, her heart immediately tightened: This guy, he actually knows that I need a thousand catties of corn, and it seems that there is really some way, so what is the matter with him saying that I can't make up a thousand catties of corn in five days? Is there a problem here?

"A thousand catties of corn, that's just a five-day harvest, why can't I make up enough?" Loulan asked.

Jack smiled slightly when he heard this, and said, "Obviously, your math is very good, and of course the five-day harvest is fine, but, honorable farmer, where do you plan to put these corns after they are harvested?" You know, you don't have a storage warehouse right now. ”

"Where to put it? Of course it's at home, but not much anyway, and I still have a seed house where I can put some too. Lou Lan said impatiently.

"No, in this dream farm, except for the storage warehouse, the other rooms can't store the harvest, I don't believe you can try it later, you can only store the harvest in the open air now." Jack said.

"What about open storage? Will someone come to steal it?,This hell place,Where did it come from.。。。 Before Loulan finished speaking, she immediately shut up: "Speaking of thieves, isn't there a guy of unknown origin standing in front of me?" This guy, no matter how you look at it, looks like a thief! ”

"Of course you can't store it in the open air, you don't know it, this dream farm is not a paradise, believe me, there will be a lot of uninvited guests to visit you, and they don't care if you are sleeping or awake, they all want to come, your harvest stored in the open air, that's a piece of fat!" Jack said a lot of words in one breath, and he felt like he was foaming at the mouth.

Loulan noticed that when Jack mentioned the words "harvest" and "fat", his eyes became noticeably brighter.

Of course, Loulan knew that it was not appropriate to store it in the open air, not to mention the uninvited Jack in front of her, that is, the big rooster in the morning and the three reed hens in front of her were very likely to steal their own corn, and since she became the farmer here, it seems that this place has suddenly become a lot more lively, who knows what guys will come uninvited, and their own corn is still too dazzling.

"You can't put it in the house, and you can't store it in the open air, so tell me, what should I do? Isn't it just left in the ground? Loulan asked tentatively.

"Of course not, the harvest still has to be harvested quickly, otherwise it will affect the continued cultivation, as for storage, hehe!" When Jack said this, he suddenly pointed his finger at himself and said, "You can hire me, I will be here to watch the harvest for you, with me here, you will never lose a grain of corn, uh... Just pay me 30% of the custodial fee. ”

"Just take care of the harvest for me, you have to take 30%, are you wronged by me?" Loulan's face sank when she heard this, and her tone was much colder.

"Uh... Of course, this is not just to take care of the harvest, I can also help you sow seeds, water, and even harvest corn, I do all of this without additional money. Seeing that Loulan's face was not good-looking, Jack hurriedly added a few more words.

"In that case, it seems to be okay, but I can do these jobs myself, so why hire you?" Lou Lan's face softened slightly.

"Of course you can do it yourself, but as I said earlier, you have more important things to do, Dear Farmer, don't you plan to plant such a little land all the time, look over there, but there are still a lot of places that have not been cultivated?" Jack said, pointing to the vast expanse of barren grass in the valley.

Loulan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said in a lost voice: "You mean, I can still go to open up wasteland?" ”

"Of course, in fact, everything here is yours, and as the owner of the farm, you certainly have the right to open up the wasteland." Jack said with a smile.

I have to say that Jack's words still gave Loulan a big wake-up call, in fact, in terms of workload, Loulan can completely farm her own land and open up the land by herself, but in order to show her gratitude to Jack, Loulan still decided to hire Jack, isn't it 30% of the harvest? As long as you reclaim a few more pieces of arable land, you may be able to gather 1,000 catties of corn in less than five days.

"Well, in that case, I decided to hire you to help me farm." Loulan quickly made a decision.

"Really? Great, honorable farmer, so what are you waiting for? Let's sign up now! Jack said with a smile on his face.

As Jack finished speaking, a translucent parchment appeared in front of Loulan out of thin air again, and the text on it Loulan was still completely unreadable, but this time, Loulan did not sign.

"Don't rush to sign a contract first, I'm going to try you out for three days before making a decision." Loulan smiled slyly, what are you kidding, now she is hiring employees, how can there be a reason for employees to sign contracts if they want to.

"Trial? What is that? Although this Jack claimed to be an old fritter who had dealt with the previous three farmers, he was obviously very unfamiliar with the new term proposed by Loulan.

"Don't even know about the trial? It's that I'm going to use you for three days in vain, and you have to work for me for these three days, and I don't have to pay you for it, of course, in order to show my sincerity, I can take care of the food, do you understand? Lou Lan said as a matter of course.

"I'll go, can I still do this? This... Who is this so lacking in virtue to invent this trial? Jack was dumbfounded.

"Who do you say lacks virtue? I can tell you, this is not my own invention, but an international practice. Loulan is not a person who eats words, so she immediately pushed back.

"International practice? So what? Jack also boasted that he was an old man, but in the face of Loulan's new terms one after another, he became more and more incomprehensible.

"International practice, which means that the whole world does this, to tell you the truth, it is generally a three-month trial outside, and I have only tried it for three days, which is cheap enough for you." Lou Lan said without changing his face, of course he wouldn't say that he would give probationary wages outside, but since he agreed to take care of the rice, it would naturally be considered a probationary salary, anyway, it was settled with corn, just give less.

"So, or am I taking advantage of you?" Jack already felt like crying without tears.

"Of course you took advantage of me, Brother Jack, I'm a good man." Loulan squinted her eyes and said.
