Chapter 240: Hiring People
Hire someone to turn the ground?
These words made Gu Changye a little confused.
"What? Just a few acres of land in your family, do you still have to ask someone to plow? ”
Even if the Gu family adds the few acres of dry land they bought later, it won't take a month to clean it up!
This costs money to hire people, and you pay back 20 wen a day! This little girl, isn't there a lot of silver and nowhere to spend!
Gu Changye looked at her, with the word loser written on his face.
Get! It seems that the name of one's loser has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!
Gu Junlan was helpless.
Subsequently, he picked and talked about the 100 acres of dry land, of course, Gu Junlan did not say that the land was already his own, only that it was rented.
"What are you renting so much land for? Are they all used to change paddy fields to grow rice? ”
After she finished speaking, Gu Changye also roughly understood where that place was.
It was a wasteland that no one had yet cultivated, because it was at the junction of two villages, and there were wild bushes and rocks around it, and it was not close to the village, so no one loved that place, so it was empty.
"I want to grow grass and raise cattle."
"Cattle breeding? Don't you have a head in your family? ”
Gu Changye, who didn't understand Gu Junlan's thoughts, couldn't figure out what she was going to do at all.
Even if you want to raise a few more, you don't need to rent such a large piece of land to grow grass and raise cattle, right?
In the Great Jin Dynasty, cattle are precious domestic animals.
A slave in Yaxing was only three or four taels of silver, and a cow, like Dabai, was still a calf at the time, but Gu Junlan bought it back for a dozen taels.
Gu Junlan didn't tell Gu Changye in detail, but only asked him to help talk about hiring short-term workers in the village.
"Okay, I'll go ask you."
But there is almost no need to ask about this, now is not a busy farming, every household is relatively idle.
Turning over twenty dollars a day, and taking care of a meal, that's a good thing that can't be imagined.
As expected, as soon as the news spread, many people in the village came to apply.
"Jun Lan girl, what you said is true?"
A woman who rushed to hear the news asked, and after seeing Gu Junlan nodded, her face was instantly full of joy.
Isn't it just turning over the ground? It's not the work of a farmer all day!
Just like this, there are twenty dollars a day, and she has to go back quickly and tell the master, so that the work will be robbed by others later.
Seeing the woman leave, the others reacted.
All the men present went up with joy and pressed their handprints, but those who were not present hurried back to call their men when they heard the news.
Originally, it was calculated that the land should be cleaned up as soon as possible, so Gu Junlan planned to hire forty people this time, each of whom was responsible for two and a half acres of land.
As soon as the news spread, Liuli Village suddenly exploded.
The chatter stopped talking, and they all rushed to see Gu Junlan to choose someone.
Gu Yushi is also one of them.
I thought to myself: that dead girl is really rich, hire so many people to plow the land!
However, unlike others, Gu Yushi came to see the excitement alone.
Seeing that the selected men present covered their finger prints one by one and couldn't close their mouths, Gu Yushi in the crowd couldn't help but curse in his heart, the man who was going to die all day long in his family couldn't be counted on!
In the end, Gu Junlan selected forty young and strong people who did good crop work on weekdays.
The next day, Gu Junlan took everyone to the field.
After explaining clearly, Gu Junlan went home and asked Gu to prepare lunch and daily wages in the evening, and after that, she drove the cattle to Dongyang County.
