Chapter 13 Recruitment
Under the big willow tree.
The lights are bright, seven aunts and eight aunts, uncles and aunts, etc., as well as distant cousins and sisters-in-law next door...... The huge Chenjiazhuang, even if it is a child who has just come out of the full moon, has been taken out by the family.
Chen Honghai, the owner of the village, sat on the grinding plate in front of the big willow tree, and he glanced at everyone calmly: "Okay, everyone stop talking, I'll say a few words!" ”
Everyone looked at him, sporadically, and the crying of children, and after being seen by Chen Honghai's eyes, the family hurriedly covered the baby's mouth.
Chen Honghai, who was full of prestige, glanced at several uncles of the same sect beside him, he nodded, and then said loudly: "I am looking for everyone to come in a word, Chen Jing He wants to take everyone to make money, I, Chen Honghai, am ready to follow him, as for your own choice, if you want to do it, raise your hand!" ”
The people below followed the "buzzing" discussion, Chen Honghai groaned slightly, and said loudly again: "A person has ten yuan, now because he has just done it, there is only one person in each household, is it a job?" Just one hour in the morning, do not delay everyone's farming...... As for your other business, I don't think I'll delay it. ”
The salary of ten yuan suddenly attracted a pair of shocked eyes below, and someone shouted: "Owner, really?" Is it really ten for one person? ”
"Nonsense, do you think I'm a liar?"
Chen Honghai raised his big hand as he spoke, and said: "But I can say it first, if you follow Chen Jing, you can do it, but you must be obedient, if anyone makes trouble, I and a few uncles are here, then we must be punished according to the rules of the village!" ”
Organized and disciplined, this is what Chen Jing discussed with Chen Honghai in advance. With Shiwen's high salary, someone suddenly stood up: "I'll go to my house!" ”
"I'll go too!"
"Count me in!"
Chen Honghai glanced at Chen Jing who was sitting on the side, nodded slightly, and Zheng Shishi, who came with him, stood up and said softly: "If you want to work, come to me to register." ”
Seeing this, the villagers stepped forward one after another, and a long queue soon formed in front of Zheng Shishi. registered their names one by one, and after a while, Zheng Shishi nodded at Chen Jing: "It's okay, exactly thirty people." ”
Chen Jing said "um", he got up and came to the grinding plate, bowed slightly to Chen Honghai and several uncles, and then put his hands behind his back and cleared his throat: "Folks...... I'm glad you can trust me Chen Jing and are willing to work with me. The owner has just said that the rules and wages will be done according to him, and I will add a little here......"
Everyone gathered around, looking at this dilapidated house that they looked down on the most on weekdays, there was suspicion in their eyes, and there was also an inexplicable excitement.
Chen Jing caught fish and sold it, this matter has actually spread in the village for a long time, and those who go to see the excitement every day, plus what Huang Ergou and Da Niu said, everyone also knows it.
Now, the owners of the village have stood up and taken the lead to follow, and the poor and frightened villagers of Chenjiazhuang are both a choice and a life compulsion.
The war is in chaos, the refugees are flooding, it is better to go out to make money than to follow Chen Jing, Shiwen! There are so many places to make money this year, and it's gone.
"Brother Jing, you say, we all listen to you!"
Da Niu took the lead in chanting, followed by several people who were good with Da Niu on weekdays, and they all shouted: Yes, we listen to Brother Jing.
Chen Jing, who nodded, said with a smile: "As long as everyone works hard, those who have worked for a month can get an additional reward of ten wen!" ”
"Ahh
When everyone heard this, they had to give money again, and they thought that Chen Jing had any other requirements, which made everyone more motivated.
"Great, I have extra money to get after working for a month, so if I work for a month...... Hey, Sanwazi, you calculate it for me, how much? ”
"Three hundred and ten!"
"Ahh So much, haha, I think if I do this, I will be able to marry Cuihua from the neighboring village by the end of the year! ”
Seeing this, Chen Honghai said with a smile: "Everyone is right, as long as you work hard, our good days are ahead." ”
After speaking, he looked at his uncles, asked in a low voice, and then said to Chen Jing: "Jing'er, if there is nothing to do, let everyone disperse, don't you have to work tomorrow morning." ”
Chen Jing nodded slightly, here Chen Honghai asked everyone to go back to rest, and the villagers walked towards their respective homes with a smile.
However, among these many people, Huang Ergou was drooping his face, as if he had lost something.
When the crowd dispersed, Huang Ergou came to Chen Jing's side: "Brother Chen...... You, you pay everyone, then I'...... So what do I do? ”
"You?"
Chen Jing thought for a while: "Didn't you follow me to learn how to make fish cages?" Don't worry, when the seven-day period is over, I will naturally teach you how to make it. ”
"Huh? I'm ......."
Huang Ergou has the heart to cry now, and now the whole village is working for Chen Jing, even if he learns it, what can he do? I'm afraid that whether the fish he catches will sell it or not is a problem, let alone whether he can catch it.
The river in Chenjiazhuang is so big, if these thirty people are caught here, he Huang Ergou will still catch a fart!
"Brother Chen, I'...... Can I do the same with you? ”
"What, you're not studying?"
"I'm ...... Haha, it's useless for me to learn, it's better to catch fish from you and make money directly. ”
"Okay."
Chen Jing looked at Zheng Shishi: "Register his name as well." ”
Seeing this, Huang Ergou smiled and said, "That...... Brother Chen, I've been with you for a few days, I'm more or less better than them in catching fish, these thirty or so people, if no one helps you watch and take it, I'm afraid that these rough people won't be able to tell you what kind of basket to poke out. ”
"I've already thought about this...... As the foreman, he can help me manage. ”
Chen Jing was about to walk to the village as he spoke, but his words made Huang Ergou stunned on the spot. Chen Jing, who hadn't walked a few steps, seemed to think of something, turned around and said: "By the way, Ergou, why don't you be a second foreman, help the big cow take things and run errands or something, do you get paid, I will give you ten yuan." ”
"Second foreman, okay...... I was the second foreman. ”
Huang Ergou grinned, nodded his head, and watched Chen Jing and Zheng Shishi walk away, but the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
"Damn, Da Niu is a fart, he can also be on my head, I followed you first, and let me run errands for him......"
Huang Ergou, who gritted his teeth, spat on the ground fiercely, squinted his eyes, and muttered with a sinister face: "It's not bad for Lao Tzu to get ten wen if he doesn't work, but you wait for me...... I, Huang Ergou, am not a person who has lived under people for a long time! Sooner or later, I'll be better than you. ”
