Lin Xiaoman didn't worry for two days, and Lu Jin sent a group of exiles to Hedong Village, and asked Lin Xiaoman to come over to pick people before he settled down. Lin Xiaoman picked the rest and let Lin Daqiang distribute it.

Soon these people were registered, and they were regarded as people from Hedong Village.

After the Xu family moved out, the vacant house happened to be for the newcomers.

Compared with the more than 300 people who came from the Xu family, this time it was sent by several households, and they were not afraid that they would unite to oppress the original residents of Hedong Village.

As soon as people moved in, they were arranged by Lin Daqiang to help in the fields of each family, and each person paid 20 yuan a day and two meals a day, which were paid by the employer's family.

So some people stopped doing it, "Patriarch, why did the Xu family pay the wages and food and drink given by the government to work for the Xiaoman family, and when we arrived, they had to go out of their own house?" ”

Lin Daqiang asked: "Lin Dazhuang, do you say that your family wants to hire people?" ”

Lin Dazhuang was speechless when asked, his face was red and his neck was thick, and finally he said: "Yes!" ”

Lin Daqiang snorted: "It's just that you have a lot of." Who doesn't know that the county ordered the adults to treat the Xu family at the beginning, it was because Mr. Xu was the adult's husband, and the money was all paid by the adult, just so that the Xiaoman family could take care of Mr. Xu. ”

Lin Dazhuang was unconvinced, "Then we can also take care of Mr. Xu, why don't you let the Xu family help my family work?" ”

This time Lin Daqiang was amused, "Why are you taking care of it?" You don't know what your family eats? When is it not an extra bite when boiling pig food? Could it be that you still want Mr. Xu to follow your family to eat pig food? ”

Lin Dazhuang's face turned even redder when he was said, and he secretly scolded his daughter-in-law for making him embarrassed by these door-picking things, but he had to admit that Lin Xiaoman's family ate really well, and he didn't know where Lin Xiaoman learned all the delicious food? Her mother didn't seem to be so good at cooking back then.

Lin Daqiang saw that he was speechless, and snorted: "Your family has made a lot of money this year by planting peppers, tomatoes and potatoes with Xiaoman's family, right?" The adults haven't said that they will overcharge your field tax, so why do you still have to hire people to work for this little money? ”

Lin Dazhuang didn't dare to say more, for fear that Lin Daqiang would be right, in case it reached the ears of the county magistrate, and the adult would give him small shoes to wear, he would say that his family earned a lot, and what should he do if he wanted to increase the field tax?

Lin Daqiang saw that Lin Dazhuang didn't say much more, and knocked the people in the village again, asking them to earn money Don't think about those who don't have it, really offended Xiaoman and the adults because of his mouth, don't take them to earn money, and let them not come to cry for themselves.

Everyone understands this reason, and now most of the people in the village have earned money, even the men of Aunt Wang's family who offended Lin Xiaoman have earned a lot, except for a few families without labor, only Xiaoman's grandmother's family has not earned money.

But at this time, don't say that you sympathize with them, you didn't follow the trend to step on a few feet because they are old and have a few years to live.

Lin Xiaoman first took the people she selected to familiarize herself with the situation in the field, and did not rush to let them go to work, but first let them drink porridge for a few days to nourish their bodies and regulate their stomachs, so as not to do much work before they would be tired first.

Fortunately, the bodies she picked were relatively strong, and after a few days of raising, all of them had a shiny face.

A few days later, they began to harvest sweet potatoes, and these people in Lin Xiaoman's family were indeed stronger than others and worked harder.

Jokes, it's not that they didn't inquire, how can anyone who comes with them eat better than them? I heard that many people eat brown rice and wild vegetable porridge that the main family does not eat.

If you really don't work hard, what should you do if the main family wants to change people?

One by one, the red-skinned sweet potatoes were dug out, and Lin Xiaoman loved it so much that he couldn't do it, whether it was boiled or eaten, steamed or boiled, it was fragrant and sweet, especially when roasted.

After harvesting the sweet potatoes, several hired workers of Lin Xiaoman's family were fine, but many of the hired workers in the village were tired, but fortunately, Lin Daqiang went to the city to invite Lang Zhong to avoid any death.

But at the same time, the family that tired the hired workers was also trained by Lin Daqiang, and the good people only earned 20 yuan a day, how could they treat people as livestock, and they didn't even have enough to eat.

This spread out, and outsiders were able to think that Hedong Village was a tiger's den in Longtan, and who would be willing to come to the village to help work in the future?

The trained family couldn't raise their heads, and several hired workers of his family also looked for Lin Daqiang, wanting to help other people's families.

Lin Daqiang agreed after a few words of persuasion, anyway, every family is short of manpower, this family doesn't treat people well, and they can't let people work hard for them, right?

He still has to harvest rice and corn later, and he doesn't want to see someone die of exhaustion in Hedong Village.

After the sweet potatoes were harvested, several families got carts with mud stoves on top of them and pushed carts to the city to sell roasted sweet potatoes.

A pound of roasted sweet potatoes sells for 30 yuan, not to mention that it is quite easy to sell, and it is in short supply every day.

Who knew that within a few days, another restaurant in the city came to the village to collect sweet potatoes, and a pound of sweet potatoes was also twenty yuan. Selling roasted sweet potatoes is a reckoning account, a pound of sweet potatoes can still be left after baking, and it is still troublesome to sell them in the county, so it is really better to sell them directly to the restaurant.

Some people saw that sweet potatoes were valuable, so they sold all the sweet potatoes at home, just waiting for the grain to come down and buy more grain.

As before, most of Lin Xiaoman's sweet potatoes were bought by Lu Jin, leaving only some Lin Xiaoman to eat by himself.

After the newcomers entered the village, except for the people in the Xu family's eldest brother Xu Qiuliang, the rest of the people were arranged to help in Lin Xiaoman's field.

The salary is still given by Lu Jin, and Lu Jin only said: "You brought new grain and new seeds for the imperial court, these are all you deserve, and after a few days, the rewards of the imperial court will be yours." ”

Lin Xiaoman was greatly moved, but he didn't know what to say about the fact that he asked people to send him some food that he couldn't find in the north every once in a while, and he couldn't say that the ones he sent were not new? She ate better than the one he sent over there, and the type of food he didn't even see before, right?

Okay, she has to accept the adult's wishes, otherwise after he really agrees to be with him in the future, he thinks he doesn't like him to send things, so he won't send them?

After doing farm work for several days, Lin Xiaoman was also tired, and he didn't want to cook when he was idle. A pot of eggplant potatoes and sweet potatoes was boiled in a large pot, and a lot of green cob corn was boiled under the pot.

At this time, the green cobs are not as tender as before, but Lin Xiaoman prefers this slightly hard taste, mainly because this kind of fast-ripening corn is anti-hunger, unlike the small tender corn that is full and hungry again after a while.

After cooking, the eggplant potatoes were mixed into a pot, with egg fried sauce in it, and shredded shallots and coriander were put on it, Lu Jin frowned when he ate it, and from time to time he took another bite of sweet potatoes, nibbled an ear of corn, and then drank a mouthful of corn gruel on the side of the bowl.

Lin Xiaoman was greedy: This person is really easy to support.
