The people in Shimoda all heard Wang Er's words, and everyone didn't dare to go ashore in a hurry, wanting to discuss an explanation with Wang Lizheng.

Xu Xiaoxiao, who had not squeaked all this time, stood up slowly, she was very curious about how Wang Li should explain this matter.

Wang Lizheng squeezed out a smile in embarrassment, waving his hand to appease the emotions of the villagers who came up, "Don't get excited, don't get excited, the three cents are for me, yours is one or two silver, I'll take you here to find a job, it's hard work, the sun is big, it's not too much to earn three cents, right?" That's right, shopkeeper Xu. ”

A good preemptive strike, Xu Xiaoxiao twitched the corners of his mouth and stepped forward to reply to Wang Lizheng's words, "Wang Lizheng, I don't understand what you say, renting this field has already given you money, and everyone who comes to work has three meals, this is fat in Xin'an City, you should not work for the benefit of the village as Lizheng, how can you put money in your pocket." ”

Wang Li froze in place, he didn't think that Xu Xiaoxiao would directly stab the tacit matter, looking at the villagers' resentful faces, he lowered his head and thought about it, now when he still won't offend people, he still has to rely on the villagers to enter the textile factory to make money.

After thinking about it, he immediately smiled harmoniously, "Yes, yes, you see that I am an old fool, I actually do foolish things, I am old, I am old, I paid for everyone privately, as long as everyone actively comes to plant cotton, there will be it." ”

The villagers' faces immediately rejoiced when they heard the words, and everyone chattered and exchanged ears, excitedly gave a thumbs up, and all kinds of rainbow farts began to praise Wang Lizheng.

As dusk fell, Wang Xiaohua, Wang Er, and Liu Qiaoer moved the cooked meals from the old house.

As soon as the villagers saw the food coming, they immediately put down the hoe in their hands and surrounded Wang Xiaohua in a hurry, and Wang Er was worried that Wang Xiaohua was in danger and pulled her out of the crowd.

Liu Qiao'er looked at the besieging villagers, threw down the spoon containing the rice and retreated.

In less than a few minutes, the full dishes and rice were swept away, and when Wang Laozi and the others came after finishing the matter at hand, the bottom of the pot had been emptied, and only the vegetable juice in the pot was left, so they had no choice but to go aside and pick up the water bag to drink water to satisfy their hunger.

The well-fed villagers burped, and then they left the field with their hoes on their shoulders and grinning.

Wang Li was standing in front of the farmland, looking at the fields where there were still not many seeds, and he was quite satisfied with the performance of the villagers today, the longer the villagers delayed, the higher the rent, and the higher the commissions of the people.

Anyway, it's not a big deal to drag on for a month or two, and when the harvest is over, the next thing is to make money from the textile mill, and it's exciting to think about it.

"Xiaoxiao, I've worked hard today, so I'll go first."

Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded slightly, looked at Wang Lizheng, who had already gone away, turned around and walked to the edge of the field, and looked at it, there was no change in the field in front of him, except for Wang Yuzi and the area they were responsible for planting seeds, the others had not been planted.

Liu Qiao'er also found a field that had not changed, and she said worriedly, "What should I do?" The group of villagers made it clear that they wanted to stall for time. ”

"It's fine." After the Yang family's trouble, Xu Xiaoxiao began to think about the way back, and she had already seen that these villagers would not do their duty, "Slipper, are you free tonight?" ”

Wang Laozi and a few others were sitting under the tree to enjoy the shade, and stood up stunned after hearing Xu Xiaoxiao's question, "Yes." What's wrong? ”

"Are you willing to work overtime at night? Come in the evening and double the pay. ”

"Double?"

As soon as Wang Yuzi and the others heard that they came to work at night, if the salary was doubled, it would mean that they would have two taels of silver a day, which was a fat difference.

"Agreed, agreed."

Everyone replied in unison.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded with satisfaction.

When it was dark, Wang Xiaohua moved the pots and pans from home, and Wang Er drove the carriage to Liujia Village to get a tent, and they decided to let Wang Laozi and others camp and rest by the field.

Xu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Qiao'er to move out the spare big oil lamp in the carriage, and then asked Wang Liuzi to dig a hole in the ground, insert the bamboo into the hole, and hang the four big oil lamps on the oil lamp.

In an instant, the originally dark field instantly brightened.

Xu Xiaoxiao sprinkled the mosquito-repellent powder in the satchel around the camp, and when everything was ready, he waited for the Cantonese cured rice in the rice pot to simmer and then start the meal.

Wang Yuzi looked at everything in front of him with a sigh, as if he was living in a dream, "Shopkeeper Xu, in fact, you don't need to add money to us, three meals a day are already very good." ”

He thought about it just now, and now in this world, there are very few owners who are willing to pay for three meals, and they can get their wages smoothly and already burn high incense.

"Slipper, it's okay, it's only right to get money for your work, and I also hope that you will finish the farm work in the field as soon as possible, if you can finish it within seven days, I will take out an additional bonus as a reward."

"Bonus? Reward?" Wang Yuzi knew that Xu Xiaoxiao was a cultural person, but after coming into contact with her, he knew a lot of fresh words, some of which he hadn't even heard of.

"I mean, additional subsidies." Xu Xiao explained with a smirk.

At this time, remembering the sound of horses' hooves in the silent night, Wang Xiaohua hurriedly got up and trotted over, she knew that it was her father-in-law who had returned.

Wang Er and Wang Xiaohua returned to the field with a few tents, followed by Liu Lizheng and Liu Dahua.

The two walked over with a big bag in their hands and a smile.

"Mother? Lizheng? Liu Qiao'er looked back and saw two familiar faces.

Xu Xiaoxiao also turned his head to look at the shield when he heard this.

Liu Lizheng and Liu Dahua handed over the things in their arms to Liu Qiao'er, and Liu Lizheng gasped and said, "You guys are really, come back and talk about it when you are in trouble." ”

"It's just that they treat us like outsiders too much." Liu Dahua was also angry, and said aggrievedly with her lips curled.

If Wang Er hadn't told the two of them what had happened recently, they would have thought that these two girls would have eaten and slept well in Wangjia Village.

"It's okay, it's all trivial." Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and got up to comfort the two.

"Otherwise, let's let the people from Liujia Village come over to help, it's better than these Wang Balambs in Wangjia Village playing tricks to slow down the process." Liu Li knew what Xu Xiaoxiao was in a hurry to plant cotton, so in his heart, the matter of cotton was a big deal.

Xu Xiaoxiao understands Liu Lizheng's worries, but the farmland in Liujia Village cannot be stopped, and everyone must prepare more food before winter.

"Uncle, don't worry, I have a sense of proportion in my heart, the most important thing for you now is to collect more food and store it."

Xu Xiaoxiao helped Liu Dahua to sit down on the stone pier on the side, and explained to them the next plan.

The two listened attentively, nodding their heads as they listened, and after understanding the plan, the gloom on their faces gradually subsided.
