Chen Rong stared at Ma Lin with wide eyes:

"You don't underestimate people, I don't know how good my homework is, I memorize all the four books and five classics."

Ma Lin was taken aback, but he didn't expect Chen Rong to be familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. You must know that those college students, few of them have read all or read the Four Books and Five Classics, and they spend their time playing games and wasting their time.

Thinking about it, the Chen family, a family with a heritage, attaches great importance to the education of their children.

Seeing Ma Lin's surprised expression, Chen Rong was very satisfied, thinking that there were finally some things that you didn't expect.

But at the same time, Chen Rong is also very weak-hearted, because she has read the Four Books and the Five Classics well, but she has only read them, and she doesn't understand the general meaning, let alone what she remorminds, she is just unconvinced that Ma Lin looked down on herself, and she said it with righteous indignation.

In fact, although Chen Rong also has a culture that is not low, when it comes to mastering the Four Books and Five Classics, it is very far behind.

However, to serve as Marin's secretary, Chen Rong is still competent.

"Okay, I'll promise to be your secretary, but you can't call me at will." 陈蓉 says:

"You are not allowed to declare personal vendetta and deliberately embarrass me at work."

Marin couldn't laugh or cry a little, and said with a wry smile:

"I don't seem to have a big personal vendetta with you, it's just your own petty grudge. Besides, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between public and private, don't worry. ”

Chen Rong pouted at Ma Lin when she heard this, which means that I will take a good look at whether you are really so selfless.

Ma Lin was helpless, so he had to smile bitterly and shake his head, thinking that this eldest lady of the Chen family was quite difficult to serve.

After chatting for a while, it was noon, and Lao Yang, who was in charge of pacifying the farmers, also returned, and Ma Lin immediately asked:

"How's it going? Those farmers are still obedient, right? ”

Lao Yang nodded, took a sip of water first, and then said:

"It went well, at first they were taken aback when they saw us, but when we told them that Ragon and Chin Maosheng had been wiped out by us, they seemed very calm."

Hearing Lao Yang's words, Ma Lin smiled and said:

"Probably they were also snatched from other forces by Qin Maosheng and them, so I'm afraid they have long been used to this situation."

"Miss Ma, you are so powerful, the situation is really like this." Lao Yang smiled:

"Many of them were peasants under the control of other forces, and then those forces were destroyed by Ragong or Chin Maosheng, and then they were taken by the two to serve as laborers. So now that they have been destroyed by us, they don't think it's strange, anyway, on this side, the struggle between different forces rarely hurts the peasants. ”

Marin smiled:

"Of course, after all, the so-called struggle for territory is to compete for land and population, and manpower is also a resource, as long as there are people with a little brain, they will not be harmed."

"But there are some guys who want to fish in troubled waters." Lao Yang smiled:

"When we saw that we had changed owners, some of them opened their mouths and said that they should increase their pay, otherwise they would not work for us."

Ma Lin squinted and laughed, looked at Lao Yang again, and asked with interest:

"What conditions did they offer?"

"In the farmers here in Qinmaosheng, there are more than a dozen guys clamoring to improve their salaries." 老杨 says:

"They proposed that we should pay each of them $10,000 a year, and that the price of raw materials for buying them would be 30 percent higher than before."

Ma Lin touched his chin and smiled at Lao Yang:

"Did you promise them?"

Lao Yang shook his head and said:

"Originally, Qin Maosheng gave them a salary of 1,000 US dollars per mu per year, and if they participated in processing, the remuneration would be calculated separately, which would not be too high anyway, and with these remunerations, they could completely support their families. So the conditions that those guys are proposing now are much higher than before. ”

"If it is in those developed countries in the West, this salary issue still needs to be taken seriously." Marin smiled:

"It's a pity that this is a bloody place where the jungle eats the strong."

Lao Yang smiled:

"That's right, Miss Ma, you're right, so I didn't agree, but answered them directly with bullets."

Even without Marin's order, Lao Yang knew that he had to use the harshest means against those who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, otherwise it would be difficult for him to control those peasants.

In this regard, Lao Yang is well versed in it.

And things were as he expected, after killing the dozen or so guys who wanted to fish in troubled waters, all the peasants were settled, and those who were a little impatient in their hearts immediately did not dare to think of such thoughts again.

Of course, Marin did not have the slightest sympathy for those people, because in fact, the life of these peasants of various forces was not too bad, at least they could fill their stomachs, and they were also protected by those forces, and if they worked hard, they would have a little savings every year.

You must know that there are billions of people in the world who are on the line of food and clothing, and more than 500 million people in Asia alone do not have enough to eat, not to mention that there are still many places in turmoil, and many people cannot even save their lives, let alone fill their stomachs.

Although the value of what these farmers grow will increase by tens or even thousands of times after being processed and refined and then transported to the market for sale, it is far more than the income of these farmers.

Whoever has the biggest fist can decide the rules of the game, and if they want to say fair things, let them go to God and talk about it.

"However, we can't blindly suppress them." Marin says:

"Well, in the future, we will buy the goods they grow at a price of five dollars per catty. And those involved in the processing can count as ten dollars for every kilogram processed, which can also increase their motivation to work. ”

Although Marin's Inagawa Chemical is in Marani, she still has to ship the rough processing here before transporting it to Marani to speed up its production process, so Marin still needs a lot of workers here.

The treatment that Ma Lin is proposing now is much better than before, and the calculation of wages by doing several pieces can also greatly enhance the enthusiasm of those farmers, unlike the previous way of calculating money by mu, no matter how much the output does not affect the remuneration.

When Lao Yang heard Ma Lin's words, he immediately nodded, and Ma Lin said to Chen Rong beside him:

"Write down what I just said, and tell him when Koizumi returns, so that he can use this method to appease the peasants on the other side of Lagon."

Chen Rong said "oh", and found a piece of paper to write down Ma Lin's words, while Lao Yang looked at them suspiciously.

Marin smiled:

"Hehe, that's right, Xiao Rong said that she had nothing to do, and she was very bored all day, so I asked me to find something for her to do, so I let her be my secretary."

Hearing Ma Lin's words, Lao Yang suddenly nodded happily and said with a smile:

"Miss, this is a good job. You can learn a lot by Miss Ma's side. ”

What Lao Yang thought of was that after Chen Rong became Ma Lin's secretary, she would definitely have a lot of time to get along with Ma Lin in the future, so that the two would be more familiar and the relationship would be stronger.
