Chapter 250: The Adventures of Migrant Workers (3)
"If you don't work, you can advance your wages first?"
Zhao Dalang and his wife stood in the crowd, and when they heard this, they were a little dumbfounded.
The recruitment of workers in Longmen Village is already very good.
200 yuan a month, including room and board, a day off every ten years, and what bonuses.
That's all, it sounds like a dream.
Zhao Dalang did chores for people in the county, saying that it was 5 copper plates a day, but many times, he couldn't get them.
It's always going to be a little bit deducted.
The point is, this kind of work doesn't happen every day.
Sometimes I don't get a job for days in a row.
Calculated in a month, it is at most about 100 copper coins.
Longmen Village can give 200, which is fully doubled.
didn't look at anything else, just looked at the salary, Zhao Dalang was moved.
At this time, I heard that wages could be advanced, and people put baskets of copper coins on the table outside.
Obviously, these copper coins were used to pay for wages.
Oh my God, so many!
Zhao Dalang swore that he had lived for more than twenty years and had never seen so much money.
It's yellow and shiny, and it makes people's hearts beat faster and their mouths dry when they look at it.
"Lady, I'll go!"
Zhao Dalang didn't hesitate at all, gritted his teeth and said to his wife beside him, "Two hundred yuan a month, and you can still have food." ā
"I'll be doing it for a few months, and I'll probably be able to pay back some more."
Their family's debts are too heavy, not to mention the capital, and they can't even pay off the interest now.
āā¦ā¦ The conditions are so good, it's really not a lie? ā
At the gate of the city just now, the lady of the Zhao family was still talking eloquently, thinking that as far as they were poor people, they were not worth the calculations of the mountain kings of Longmen Village.
Yes, yes...... Advance wages?
I've never heard of it, and the ladies of the Zhao family have a feeling of unreality.
She couldn't help but start muttering: Are you sure it's not a lie?
Could it be that there is any hard work in the mountains of mining and digging mountains, and Longmen Village wants to cheat some laborers to work in vain?
However, the recruitment notice also said, "There is no limit to men and women".
Women can't do gravity work.
As for whether it is trafficking, the recruitment notice also said, "14 to 40 years old".
In ancient times, forty-year-old women were grandmothers, where could they still sell for money?
At this age, all the children are born, what do you buy them for?
There is no shortage of ancestors in the family.
ā¦ā¦ So, isn't Longmenzhai doing human trafficking?
Are they really hiring?
"No matter! Is it true or false, and what is the difference? ā
Zhao Dalang thought about it very much.
In other words, the cruel reality has weighed him down to the point of collapse.
They are already on the verge of family ruin, and even if they are deceived, they are only one step early.
But what if it's true?
Longmenzhai really wants to recruit people to work, and really fulfill these promises, then, wouldn't their family have a chance to continue to survive?
You don't have to sell your children and daughters, and you don't have to be forced to short-circuit yourself by the money in India?
Hearing Zhao Dalang's low roar, the Zhao family's lips squirmed a few times, and finally she didn't say a word.
Yes, their family has reached the point of exhaustion.
Now it's just a matter of taking one step at a time, and I can't survive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
Instead of waiting to die, it is better to fight.
"Good! Lang Jun, let's go! ā
The husband and wife together, if it is really a scam, they can also have a companion on Huangquan Road.
As for the children...... If your life is better, you will be bought, and if your life is not good, then the family will be reunited underground!
"I'm signing up!"
Zhao Dalang and his wife made up their minds, squeezed away the people standing in front of them, and rushed to the front.
The one who is in charge of recruitment today is Red Sleeves.
She is in the palace and is the palace maid of the Shang Palace Bureau.
On the way, the paste that Shen Wu used to refine penicillin was concocted by the Red Sleeves and people.
Coming to Longmen Mountain, Shen Wu opened several workshops for sugar making, salt making, pharmaceuticals and so on.
Red Sleeves is one of those responsible.
This recruitment is also to expand the scale of the workshop, and the person in charge of Red Sleeves naturally has to come in person.
"What's your name? Where do you live? What is the last name? What is the age? ā
Red sleeves saw Zhao Dalang with determination in his eyes, and he didn't have the excitement of "finally deceiving someone".
Instead, the recruitment process formulated by Shen Wu was carried out in an orderly manner.
She took out a wad of white paper, pen and ink, etc.
Dip the brush in ink, hold it in your hand, and prepare to record.
Zhao Dalang was stunned for a moment, do you still want to register these?
The content is very detailed!
It's time to check the household registration.
Red sleeves seemed to see Zhao Dalang's hesitation, and said with a smile, "We will advance wages, if we don't register in detail and mix in some scoundrels who take the opportunity to cheat money, although we Longmen Zhai can get the money back, we don't want to cause trouble." ā
Red Sleeves said this quite politely.
Especially the words "get the money back" are even more domineering of the "king of the mountain".
Zhao Dalang: ...... Well said, makes sense!
Yes, Zhao Dalang and they are afraid that Longmenzhai is a deception, and they are afraid that someone will come to cheat their wages.
After all, the matter of wage advances is too attractive and precedent-precedented.
"I, my surname is Zhao, I am the eldest in the family, and everyone calls me Zhao Dalang. He is 23 years old and his family lives in Sixteen Mile River Village, just outside the city. ā
Zhao Dalang obediently answered the question of the red sleeves.
The red sleeves brushed and wrote.
After registering this, Red Sleeves raised his head again and asked, "What are your specialties?" such as bricklayers, carpenters, blacksmithing, pig slaughtering, ......"
Red Sleeves was afraid that Zhao Dalang would not understand what his "specialty" was, so he made a long list.
Zhao Dalang listened and listened, and suddenly nodded again and again, "I, I have a lot of strength, and I have worked in the iron shop." ā
Although he can't strike iron, he can wield a sledgehammer.
If there is a master who can strike iron, he should be able to do a lot of work.
"Good!"
Red Sleeves hurriedly wrote it down.
After asking a few more questions, Red Sleeves finally said: "We also have an iron-making workshop in Longmen Village, if you want, you can go to the blacksmith to work." ā
"For the first three months, no matter which workshop it is, the salary is 200 yuan per month. After three months, work is assigned based on performance, and then wages are set for specific jobs. Rest assured, the salary after the job is fixed will definitely be more than 200 yuan! ā
Zhao Dalang: ...... More than 200 bucks?
The more I listen to it, the more I look like a liar.
The lady of the Zhao family hurriedly came over, "Little lady, I will also sign up!" IāI should be able to, right? All the notices you put up at the gates of the city say, There is no limit to men or women. ā
Red Sleeves nodded, "It's true that there are no restrictions on men and women, if you want to sign up, you can sign up." ā
Speaking of this, Red Sleeves said more, "The owner of our Longmen Village is a woman, and there are many female workers in the village." ā
"Like me, it is a woman, our village owner said, women are no worse than men. And in some jobs, women have an advantage. ā
"For example, weaving, embroidery...... We have a women's workshop in our cottage! ā
When the lady of the Zhao family heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.
The owners of the village are all women, so will she be able to earn as much wages as her husband when she goes to Longmen Village?
