Chapter 49: Choice

"Crooked, don't touch it!"

Li and Mu disgusted to pat away the salty pig hand that came out of nowhere, quickly took the three coins in their hands back into the cloth bag, carefully stuffed them back into their arms, and finally patted them hard through their clothes to ensure that they would not be lost before relieving themselves.

"Then how much is our salary?" Qian Sanjiang asked as if nothing had happened.

"If you ask for yourself, the wages will be different for different jobs. Li and Mu said proudly, "For example, when we are soldiers, ordinary soldiers have eight yuan per month (thirty days, before the calendar is determined, Li Kang has mandated thirty days in January), that is, the eight largest steel plates, each piece is called one yuan, each piece of the inferior one is called a dime, and the smallest one is one penny, which is about the same as one penny, and eight yuan is eight hundred yuan, and our guards are higher, like me, ten yuan a month." ”

"Those officers must be higher, dozens of steel plates!" Finally, Li and Mu's expressions were filled with envy and yearning.

"Okay, I'm going to make another round, you all disperse. ”

......

"Your Excellency, are you still out of the boat today?" When Qian Sanjiang and his party found Kaifeng, the members of the fleet came, and Wu Ying stepped forward and asked.

"Of course out!" Kaifeng glanced at him and said lightly, "However, today is a bit special, and everyone knows the reason." Let's not say much, according to the instructions of the lord, everyone will pay half a month's salary, and the captain will have four steel plates, Wu Ying, Shen Minghe, Lu Xiaosheng, Huang Yuan, this is the four of you, take it!"

Wu Ying and the four of them were smashed by the surprise that suddenly fell and couldn't find the north, so they hurriedly took the money bag, their mouths couldn't close for a long time, and they couldn't help but reach out and check the money bag, and the sound of tinkling metal collision was crisp and pleasant, which was extremely charming, like a heavenly sound.

"Hey, isn't this too much?" Shen Minghe felt the weight in his hand, far more than four.

"It's too much, that's good, give it to me, I don't dislike it!" said Kaifeng angrily, "There are three large steel plates of one yuan, six of them are one dime, and there are forty small coins of one cent." Do you still think it's all big steel plates?"

"How can it, head!" Shen Minghe hurriedly clutched his money bag and said with a smile.

"Okay, I won't talk to you, the boys are in a hurry, and if they continue to rip off, I'm afraid they will kill us alive!" Kaifeng made a rare joke, and the impatient crew members smirked embarrassedly.

"Three yuan per crew member, don't grab it, there are all of them, I signed up for the word, and I stepped forward to receive them one by one. Well, first of all, Zhang Hu!"

"I'm here, I'm here!" Zhang Hu quickly squeezed through the crowd with a red face and stepped forward to respond.

"Now, it's yours, take it! Next is it, Wu Xiong!"

"Where are you..."

"Qian Sanjiang..."

"Wu Fan..."

"Zhang Dahai..."

......

"Zou Xiaofeng!"

"I'm so depressed, why am I the last?" Zou Xiaofeng said in fragments, but his steps were fast.

"If you talk nonsense, I'll confiscate it for you!" Kaifeng picked up the last money bag and scared him with a tiger face.

"Don't don't, don't...", the effect is very good, Zou Xiaofeng was indeed frightened, with the momentum of stealing the bell in his ears, snatched the money bag in Kaifeng's hand, instantly stuffed it into his arms, and said in his mouth: "The leader has the rivers and seas in his mind and has a bright future, how can he see me as a little person." ”

"Get out!" Kaifeng laughed and scolded, and then said: "The money is over, it's time to get down to business." You can also calculate it yourself, the captain's monthly salary is eight yuan, and the crew's monthly salary is six yuan (Li Kangding's minimum monthly salary is five yuan), except..."

But before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a question.

"Then how much is your monthly salary, Lord Leader?" Lu Xiaosheng said with a hippie smile, this question has been raised, and it immediately aroused the curiosity of all the crew.

The corners of Kaifeng's mouth twitched, and he wanted to kick this cargo to death, no way, the two usually work in the same boat, and they are roommates, Lu Xiaosheng is also the captain after all, the difference between the two identities is not big, it is easy to become good buddies, and they are not used to each other.

"You want to know?"

"I want to..."

"Okay, fifteen yuan!" Seeing that everyone was interested, Kaifeng said indifferently, anyway, it is not a big secret, and there are not many sincerity.

Sure enough, everyone was just envious and passed, and they didn't think it was too much.

"Now satisfied, shut your mouth and listen to me, if anyone interjects indiscriminately, I will let him be responsible for cleaning the cabin for a month!" A vicious warning, especially Lu Xiaosheng, Kaifeng then continued: "In addition to the monthly salary, if the monthly harvest of any ship exceeds the standard, then all the crew members on this ship will receive additional rewards, the more they harvest, the more rewards, and even more than your salary." But... In the same way, if any ship gains too little and is obviously not careful, it will also deduct money!"

"Then dare to ask the team leader, what is this standard?" asked Shen Minghe nervously.

"The more the merrier, there is no fixed standard. Kaifeng said lightly, "Everyone else is around 300 catties, and you are 400 catties, that is exceeding." And the standards are definitely different in the off-season and in the peak season. In short, as long as you work hard and don't be lazy, the reward is not guaranteed, but you will definitely not deduct your wages. ”

"Well, my lord, can we buy a boat and do it ourselves?" Qian Sanjiang asked nervously, he had been holding this question for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to ask.

"Huh?" Kaifeng looked at Qian Sanjiang in surprise, his heart beat faster, his face was pale, and when his friends next to him began to sweat for him, Kaifeng finally showed an appreciative gaze and said with a smile: "Yes, shrewd enough!"

"That..." The open-minded attitude made Qian Sanjiang's heart drop instantly, and the blood color returned to his face. Even the others looked impressed.

"That's what I'm going to say. If you don't want to eat official food, you can do it yourself, and you can pay the boat money in installments, or you can find someone to work together. Of course, if it's too expensive, you can not buy it, you can rent it, and this is not forced. The boat can be rented from us, and if it is not too troublesome, you can also find someone to make a new one. Kaifeng said, not at all afraid that after the crew is gone, he will become the commander of the light pole.

The words of opening the wind suddenly caused a commotion, and the crew members talked about it, not to mention Qian Sanjiang, who had an idea for a long time, and even those who had no ideas at the beginning were eager to try.

This is my own boat! Can it not make people's hearts sway?

Kaifeng saw that everyone was almost discussed, and then said: "You have to think about this by yourself, do it alone, and how much you earn depends on how much sweat you pay and a little bit of ethereal luck." The advantage is that it is more free, and if you are lucky, you will definitely earn more than you will be paid, but the disadvantage is that if you are unlucky, you may lose all your money, and it is not as good as taking your salary to ensure income in drought and flood. How to choose, you have to think carefully!"

"Fortunately, time is not in a hurry, no matter how you choose, you can't afford to buy it now, and you have to do another trip. Don't be verbose, hurry to eat, and set off as soon as you finish eating. By the way, this time I was walking, and if I was going to stay on the boat for the night, remember to bring more food and water. As he spoke, Kaifeng took the lead and walked towards the cafeteria, "Don't forget the money, it's no better than in the past, and it costs money to eat!"

Hey, I really miss the good times of eating white food every day!
