After the women left, Li called over to Li Daniu, who was stupid on the side.

"Da Niu, you go to the market in that town tomorrow to inquire and see when the leech ditch will start to open up the wasteland!"

"What? Mother, what did you just say? Li Daniu is still immersed in a certain emotion, unable to extricate himself!

Li Shi said angrily: "The old lady asked you to go to find out the news of the leech ditch as soon as possible!" ”

"Huh? Mother, I still have to wait, wait...... Hehe! Li Da Niu's eyes were full of autumn waves, and he was dizzy.

Lee's hatred of iron is not a steel road,

"What are you talking about, this woman is a scourge, if it weren't for the inheritance of our old Li family, the old lady wouldn't want a lewd slut to hook you away!" Hooked away, is this big cow out of her control?

On the second day, before dawn, Li Sanmao's family of three was already on their way to the town.

"Daughter-in-law, I finally know why you bought the foundation near Luojia Village." Li Sanmao suddenly said loudly.

"Husband, you only know now!" Luo Zhi'er said with a smile.

"It's close to the leech ditch, and the neighborhood is sparsely populated, so when the time comes, we will directly build a road to the leech ditch, so that it will be convenient for us to farm!"

She didn't say one thing yet, these two sides are mountains, and the middle is reclaimed is the land, and after a few barriers, isn't this the mountain garden behind his family yard?

"That's right, blowing tea and listening to the flowing water in your spare time, and the birds calling people in the early morning."

It turns out that the daughter-in-law likes such days.

"Hehe, husband, aren't you stupid, tell me how we can recruit people today?" Luo Zhi'er frowned.

Today, they still went to the town to collect the labor force who went to the leech ditch to open up the wasteland!

The land reclamation here is not as good as the modern mechanized operation, which is basically axe, knife cutting, hoe digging, pure manual work, and the productivity is not generally low.

In fact, many peasants are reluctant to open up wasteland and farm land by themselves, why, because the fertile land is basically in the hands of the rich, and it is better for the village to get some of it.

Those who have no distribution or do not have enough crops would rather rent from the rich and become tenant farmers than open up wasteland.

First of all, the remaining mountainous area is relatively remote and barren, and it sometimes takes a day to climb there by people alone, and then it takes a lot of effort to cut down the dense trees, dig the ground, remove the roots, burn the trees, and clean them up.

Second, if you open up the wasteland, you may not harvest the next year, which is fatal to a poor family.

Third, even if you have cultivated the land and planted the crops, because you are far away, it is very likely that someone will steal it, and the land may also be remembered by the rich.

For the wasteland of the leech ditch, it occupies two points, one is too far away from the people, there is no road, and the other is the terrible creature, the leech, everyone heard that this place was trembling, in order to open a wasteland, a careless life is gone, and the death is terrifying!

It's also difficult for her to recruit people, after all, people are afraid of death.

It took several days to recruit people, and only then did he recruit a man who was not afraid of death!

Or with her repeated assurances, there will be no accidents......

"Daughter-in-law, my husband thinks that first of all, this salary cannot be low, and it must be higher than fifty percent of the coolies in the market."

"Well, I know, I'll get a price today."

She originally wanted to contract it out, but as soon as those foremen heard about the leech ditch, they all retreated! And it spread very quickly in the circle, and no foreman was willing to take her order.

I can only hire people individually in private.

There are still people who don't want to die for the sake of money, it depends on whether the price is worth it or not.

"Second, why don't we pay half of their commission in advance, and, if there is an accident, sign a high compensation." Li Sanmao thought for a while.

"Husband, I think you are very thoughtful, and you must put an end to the two points they are most concerned about, commission and life safety."

Li Sanmao's words changed, just to open a famine will cost a lot of silver, although the daughter-in-law always has a way to produce silver, but where does the money come from, and I don't know what the harvest will be like next year?

"Eh, it's just that this costs a lot of money, and my husband doesn't think it's worth it."

"But...... Speaking of which, I have an idea of my own. Luo Zhi'er knew it in her heart.

"Oh? You say come and hear it. ”

"Actually, I met the second aunt of Luojia Village in the market yesterday, and I had some ideas." Yesterday, I met not only the second aunt and them at the market, but also some villagers I knew in Luojia Village, and she pulled Li Sanmao and them to hide, which still aroused suspicion.

The second aunt chased her for a few streets.

It is estimated that this leech ditch has also been spread in Zhaoli Village, and if it is known that this land was bought by her, it will cause a lot of incidents.

So far, it can't be known, it's still one word, hidden.

"Let's buy some servants!"

"Huh?"

Miao Miao and Li Sanmao both fell below their chins.

"Anyway, there are a lot of coolie men who sell in the tooth shop, and since they are going to open up the wasteland, they can also work if they can't hire people, and besides, the deed of sale of the domestic servants is in our hands, and it is more convenient for them to come forward to do things than ourselves."

"In the future, we will need people for farming, maintenance, and management, and this land area is quite a lot, and it will be very annoying to rely on me and you or invite people alone."

"Well, it's just ......"

"Don't worry about the silver, I didn't sell a few recipes before, and there is still a little left in addition to renting a storefront, but there is not much left to buy a few people and the budget for building a house."

When Li Sanmao heard what she said, he immediately had the idea of hurrying to hunt and earn silver, and his daughter-in-law had no money! "Daughter-in-law, use the money we used to sell wild things the day before yesterday to buy people!"

"Good!"

"But where do they live when they buy people?" You can't take it home with you......

"This is a problem, it seems that we still have to build a house, and at present we will build a few large bungalows for the servants to live in, and we can only find another place before we build them."

The two of them discussed it on the way, and when they arrived in the town, they went to Foreman Wu to have a look.

When I arrived at the shop, the old decorations that should have been removed had been removed, and the layout was roughly exposed, and the inside was empty, and now it was redecorating.

According to Luo Zhier's requirements, this is a simple and elegant wooden material style, a door against the wall on both sides of the bread exhibition area, in the middle is a long counter, a place to order and pay, there are also exhibits in the counter, she plans to develop small desserts, small pastries, drinks, as well as the name of the product to be carved and sold above, the price, etc., appropriate with small icons, the front window place to order rows of wooden long tables, near the middle exhibition area is also a place where wooden long tables can sit and rest and eat, the overall warm tone, Varnish ...... for logs

This decoration style is the first time Foreman Wu has seen, the decoration is not difficult, but it is very novel, he plans to learn it, maybe the merchants in Taoyuan Town will see the decoration of this shop will be popular.

At that time, he alone had experience, and he personally led people to complete it, which started his reputation as a Wu foreman.

Therefore, the workmanship is also a hard work.
