Chapter 122: Manpower Arrangement
Shanzi is seventeen years old, Leizi and Ma Eleven are the same age and twenty, they are both full of curiosity about the outside world, and when they heard that the master's family trusted them so much, and they were able to go out for a walk, they were immediately moved, and their eyes were full of joy.
The second elder of the Yun family was a little hesitant, although the martial kingdom was quite peaceful, but after all, they were still a little reluctant to let their son go away.
Seeing this, Zhao Fengnian said, "I have a friend who has business all over the city, and when I write a trust to pay him, you will have a place to stay in each city, and you don't have to worry about no one to help you when you have something." In addition, this will take a year at most, and if it is done well, you will be able to return at the beginning of winter, and you will be paid another hundred taels of wages per person, in addition to the expenses for a year. ”
"One hundred taels?" Everyone exclaimed in unison, how many taels of silver is a hundred taels? It is the income of the whole family for ten years, enough money to marry five daughters-in-law or build a brand-new blue brick and gray tile compound. Even the most frugal farmer had to save up for twenty years to save so much silver, and now, as long as he goes out for a year, he can earn it back, which is a great thing.
Shanzi, Leizi and Ma Shiyi all jumped up at once, and responded one after another, "I'll go, I'll go!" ”
The two elders of the Yun family glanced at each other, and they were also very moved, Rui Xue smiled again, "Originally, Leizi's daughter-in-law was about to give birth, and I hesitated to change someone, but the Qian family has a small population, and the Gao family and the Zhang family have many children, so only the sisters-in-law can't be left at home." Therefore, if the Leizi brothers agree, go to the northern cities, and I will find you another man, and you will be able to come back in the next month or two, and then rush to harvest beans in the autumn. As for Shanzi and Eleven, they went south, the road was too far, and they could only come back in autumn and early winter. ”
"Okay, okay, it's warm in the south, and it's okay to be a few months late." Shanzi was afraid that his father and mother would not allow him to go out, so he responded first.
Aunt Yun heard that the eldest son would only be able to come back in a month or two, and she had already agreed in her heart, glared at her younger son with disgust, and scolded with a smile, "There are no rules, your father hasn't spoken yet, why did you agree first." ”
Shanzi grinned and scratched his head, blushing a little, "Well, I'm not also in a hurry to make money and come back and build a new tiled house for my father." ”
Ma Shiyi elbowed him and quipped, "You are in a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law." ”
"You're in a hurry to marry a daughter-in-law." Shanzi retorted neatly, but his face turned even redder.
Suddenly, there was an errand to earn two hundred taels of silver, and whoever put this matter in, I am afraid it is a great joy, and Second Uncle Yun is naturally no exception, besides, the salary of the eldest son Lei Zi is almost half given by the Zhao family, so he nodded and agreed, and warned the two sons on the spot to be worthy of the trust of Mr. Zhao Family, Lei Zi and Shanzi both respectfully agreed, patted their chests and promised that they would do things well.
Ma Shiyi also stepped forward to respond, and instead taught Shanzi about going into the city to buy, and he wanted to go home immediately to discuss with his parents.
Rui Xue told them to keep it secret, and then also went to the dock, the stone just arranged the account book and sat at the table to settle the accounts, Rui Xue asked the bolt to invite Xu Kuan, when the face of the uncle and nephew, the matter of going out, Xu Kuan immediately responded, he has been a helper for a few months, whether it is vision or mind, it is much higher than before, the stone goes, it is with Lei Zi, at most it is a helper, there is merit and the two of them receive it together, there is naturally an older Lei Zi top tank, no matter how it is calculated, besides, the stone goes out for a walk, Getting in touch with the business, a lot of experience, and helping to do freight trading in the future, is also beneficial.
So he immediately took the stone home, said hello to his parents, told him to keep it secret, and simply packed his luggage and went back to the docks. The bolt was very envious of his junior brother for going out for a walk, but unfortunately he also knew that he was young, and his father and mother would not agree, so he wrapped himself around the stone and asked him to bring some good things when he came back, and the stone should naturally go down.
At noon, Rui Xue told everyone in the north house about the purchase of cow beans, and everyone was very happy, and waited for half an hour in the afternoon, and there was no boat docking, so they ran back to each house like a swarm, ready to occupy two more pieces of wasteland in front of the house or behind the house or next to the ration field, and planted cow beans, which is a good amount of money in autumn.
Similarly, many neighbors in Yunjia Village also heard that the Zhao family bought Niu Dou, and they were busy, Zhao Fengnian saw that the helpers had a look of urgency on their faces, so they said that they would stop working for half a day and continue to build the yard tomorrow, and everyone was overjoyed, and immediately ran home to help.
Ruixue got the news from Shanzi, so she came back with the stones, prepared two tables of banquets, gathered the five members of the Yun family and Ma Shiyi who rushed back to the house, rejoiced, and had a lively meal, and after the meal, she talked to the four people who were going out for most of the hour, explained what they had to do, divided the plates, and took the letters, and prepared to let them go on the second day.
As a result, the four of them were very excited, shouting that it was better to leave at this time than to wait until tomorrow morning, so they parted ways after saying goodbye and went north and south.
Originally, Ruixue was afraid that Lei Zi's daughter-in-law would be reluctant, but people laughed from beginning to end, not to mention how happy she was, she thought about it instead, and she was relieved, she could earn back a hundred taels after going out for two months, build a new yard, and live a good life, which daughter-in-law should be happy, not to mention that now is a peaceful and prosperous world, at most she will have to endure some hardship, and she will not worry about her life.
In the evening, Ruixue brought some food, went to the Qian family and the Gao family to sit down, and mentioned the matter of sending Lei Zi and others out, the two families had no intention of complaining, they knew in their hearts that the family could not let go, even if they were sent, they could not agree, it was better to work well and steadily, and it was convenient for the family.
As for the Zhang family, when they were at the dock, Zhang's sister-in-law heard Ruixue say it, and said at that time that she wanted to take care of the shop, and Zhang Dahe had to take people to make tofu, and she couldn't leave, so she wouldn't make this fortune, and besides, the monthly money of three taels of silver per month for their husband and wife was already a lot, and they were not greedy people.
In the past few days, the yard has been built, and the amount of tofu made every day has been halved, Lei Zi is gone, Qian Heitan can help more, but he can also cope with it, Ruixue is not in a hurry to add more manpower, everything is waiting for the workshop to be built, and we will recruit workers together.
The Zhao family arranged manpower here and was busy building houses, which was lively and prosperous, and the villagers were very envious in their eyes, and of course, there were also those who were so jealous that it was difficult to sleep and eat.
Zhao's second family in the front yard, after the turmoil a few years ago, was really honest for a while, after the year Qingshan was sent to the city for apprenticeship, Zhao's second sister-in-law was so proud that she couldn't do it, so she became active in the village again, as a result, the day before yesterday, Qingshan suddenly came back from the city, Zhao's second sister-in-law thought that her son was doing a good job, and the master deliberately gave a holiday to visit the house, and it was fried meat, and it was stewed chicken, but at the dinner table, I heard my son say that he was lazy to sleep, knocked over the oil lamp and almost burned the shop, and was driven out by the master.
Zhao's second sister-in-law slapped her son a few times, and also followed the fire, if the people in the village knew, they didn't know how to pay attention to her behind her back, so she hid at home for two whole days, and didn't dare to go out. The two of them ran to their own land to see that all the wasteland, even the hillsides, had been occupied, and the only thing free was the river beach, but it was all fine yarn, not to mention planting cow beans and wild grasses.
Zhao Lao Er was angry, gave Zhao Er's sister-in-law a few kicks, went home and was annoyed all night, and went to work the next day, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Rui Xue and his wife deliberately took advantage of his absence to release the news, just didn't want their family to plant cow beans to make money, so when they had lunch and rested, they grabbed and grabbed the wooden square in their hands, thinking about how to add a little blockage to the Zhao family, but, killing people and setting fires, he was timid and didn't dare to start, the people in the village are now staring at the workshop, and they planted cow beans to sell to the Zhao family in the autumn, so they naturally favored the Zhao family, if he was discovered, I'm afraid that no one will be able to save their family anymore.
But he didn't take revenge at all, and he was unwilling, and a carpenter who had befriended him saw that his face was not right, so he stepped forward to inquire. The two of them are stingy and treacherous on weekdays, and outsiders don't like it, but they smell the same, often work together, drink a cup of grain wine together, and chat a few words.
Zhao Lao Er was really uncomfortable in his heart, so he told the man about it, and the person lived in Jianshanzuizi, next door to Yunjia Village, and was familiar with Yunjia Village, so he asked, "The Zhao family you said lives behind your house?" ”
Zhao Lao Er nodded, "Well, it was originally a lonely old man's house in the village, when the big water was made, the lonely old man starved to death, and it has been deserted, and then the surname Zhao came, and the clan elders placed him in that yard to live, and now people have made a fortune, and dozens of people are helping to build two courtyards, and also bring gardens, not to mention how magnificent." ”
The man thought about it carefully and said, "But the courtyard in the northeast corner, I remember that Liu Siye used to live, right?" ”
"You have a good memory, it's Liu Siye's courtyard."
The man's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled, "Brother, I do have an idea that can cause a big trouble for the Zhao family, but if you are angry, you can invite me to a good meal in a restaurant in the city." ”
"Really? What's a good idea? Brother Chen, tell me quickly, if the matter is done, don't say one, please do two. ”
Zhao Lao Er was overjoyed, and immediately pulled the surnamed Chen to ask, and the surnamed Chen didn't take Qiao'er, motioned for him to come to him, and said in a low voice, "Aunt Liu next door to my house seems to be the niece of Liu Siye's cousin, you said that if you let her know that her uncle has a yard left, will she come to the door to make trouble." ”
Zhao Laoer's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was just about to speak, but he was deflated again, "Brother Chen, according to the laws of our martial country, women are not qualified to inherit the wealth of their mother's family, not to mention that they are still a distant cousin, I'm afraid this won't work." ”
The surnamed Chen smiled, "Brother, you don't know, that Aunt Liu is famous in our village for being unreasonable, and she is the best at spilling and fighting, and her son has taken a fancy to the daughter of the Li family in Dongshanao, and she wants a dowry of ten taels of silver, but her family can't take it, and she is on fire these days. ”
Zhao Lao Er thought that the Zhao family and his wife had built more than half of the yard, but suddenly heard that this yard belonged to someone else, and the expression must be quite exciting, he couldn't help but laugh, and said, "After work at night, the younger brother buys a piece of meat, goes to the elder brother's house to drink, and invites the neighbors to accompany him by the way." ”
Huiyi, surnamed Chen, also laughed.
