Farming in troubled times: Anyone who stops me from getting rich will die!

The sun is really fierce at noon.

Fortunately, Su and the others were also capable and prepared the meals.

Li Yueyan asked everyone to stop what they were doing.

As soon as they talked about going to eat, Liang Dagang and the people he brought became awkward.

"Let's go back to eat and come back later."

How could Li Yueyan let them go?

Together with Wang Zheng, he stopped in front of them.

Liang Dagang and others couldn't resist, so they dragged themselves to the shade of the tree.

Next to the kitchen shed, the Su family set up several tables.

Liang Dagang turned around as soon as he saw the food on the table.

"We're not here to work to take advantage of you."

A dozen people turned around together.

"Oops," Li Yueyan hurriedly grabbed him, "Brother Dagang, you misunderstood!"

Wang Zheng stopped several other people.

"Brothers, these are our family's normal meals. We are definitely not trying to flatter ourselves just because you are here."

"Yes!"

Su Shi raised the spatula in her hand.

"We have many children and eat a lot. Although we don't have much money, we don't dare to lose money to them on food alone.

Today I just added some extra portions.

Don't be polite! "

Liang Dagang looked suspiciously.

Li Yueyan could only nod hard, "That's true!"

"Okay then!" Liang Dagang nodded.

A small table was set up in the tent, and some of each dish was distributed. Li Yao and his female relatives ate in the tent.

It was very lively outside, and the people of Datian Village were cautious at first, but later started to eat more freely, just because the food was so delicious.

Liang Dagang caught a big fish head.

After just biting into the mouth of a fish, I felt like my previous life had been in vain.

Looking at the others, their taste buds were all shocked just like him.

He buried his head and just ate, not saying a single unnecessary word.

Two large pots of boiled fish fillets, one pot of smoked rabbit, one pot of braised pork, one pot of shredded potatoes, one pot of cabbage and tofu soup, a dozen large egg pancakes, and a bucket of steamed rice.

I ate it cleanly, with no soup left at all.

After eating, Liang Dagang's fierce face showed unprecedented satisfaction.

He burped and laughed.

"Go, go to work!"

"It won't work." Li Yao just came out of the tent, "If you work just after eating, your intestines will break."

She deliberately exaggerated, "If you want to work, you have to rest for at least an hour. Besides, the sun is too hot and it's easy to get heatstroke."

"My daughter knows some medical skills, and what she said is right. Let's all rest for an hour before going to work."

Liang Dagang thought for a while.

He glanced at the serious little girl.

When I think about the way this girl dealt with the old village chief's family that day, I feel a little scared for no reason.

Even less dare to object.

But this afternoon, they worked harder. It didn't stop until it was dark.

Su Shi went to urge them several times before they put down their work.

I heard that there was still dinner, but I refused to eat it even if I lived.

Su Shi could only say that it was already done and it would go bad if she didn't eat it until tomorrow.

Liang Dagang had no choice but to shamelessly bring people back for dinner.

In the evening there was steamed corn rice and dozens of baked pies.

The dishes are a pot of braised chicken, a pot of fish stewed with pickled cabbage, a pot of fried meat with dried bamboo shoots, a pot of cabbage soup, and a pot of snails with sauce.

We also fried a pot of spicy crab.

Very rich.

Wang Zheng also asked Li Yao for a few bottles of wine.

The men got closer after drinking and started talking nonsense.

It wasn't until the moon was high that everyone dispersed.

The Su family originally wanted to wait for the men to discuss the matter, but because it was late at night and they were all working hard, they all went to bed early.

It wasn't until breakfast the next morning that Su Shi mentioned it.

"Whether they are coming today or not, if they are coming, we will calculate the appropriate amount of money to pay them. This will also save us from having to pay them back for their work in the future."

Everyone thought it was appropriate to pay wages, so they discussed it.

“The three brothers from the Ming family do technical work, and I think the wages are a little higher.

In addition to Brother Dagang, he has a lot to worry about and should be given more. "

Wang Zhengxian said.

"The master we hired is our turn today. He and his two apprentices earn two hundred coins a day."

Li Yueyan talked about the price of hiring people from Pushi County, "The master is 120 yuan, and the two apprentices are [-] yuan."

After all, they are professionals, and the price is moderate.

"How much do you think is appropriate?"

Wang Zheng thought for a moment and said, "The three brothers of the Ming family will be paid forty cents a piece.

The rest of the brothers have about the same amount of 25 articles. "

Li Yao secretly estimated that what his godfather said was almost the market price of this dynasty, which was quite appropriate.

And they provide two meals a day.

Those who move goods at the docks do not receive a meal in addition to their wages.

Calculated this way, I can still make money by helping her family build a house.

"Then when brother Dagang comes, I will talk to him." Li Yueyan said.

"Why haven't the bricks from the brick factory been delivered today?"

He stood up and looked outside, "If it is not delivered today, it will be useless tomorrow."

"Then I'll go there after noon to urge you." Wang Zheng said.

There are a lot of things to do in building a house. In addition to buying bricks and tiles, there is also a shortage of this material and that material from time to time.

Li Yao said, "Dad and godfather go shopping from time to time. Just by ourselves, we don't know how long it will take to build this house.

Although brothers can help, they are not as good as adults.

The people Village Chief Liang brought are indeed capable. Why don't we just hire them until the house is built? "

She had considered it.

Even if it is built for a month, the wages of one tael of silver a day are only 30 taels.

If you rely on your own family to build it, let alone not being able to finish the work in a month, it will also delay your brothers' studies, and they will have to live in tents for at least several months. All in all it does more harm than good.

It’s still convenient and cost-effective to hire someone.

"How much money will it cost?"

Zhu Yinniang murmured.

"Money spent is earned. Build houses as soon as possible so that everyone can earn better."

Li Yao replied, "Brother Ji Yang helped catch a few bad guys and earned ten taels. Isn't this better than staying at home and working as a coolie?"

The eldest brother has even fallen behind on his homework recently, just to build this house. It's obviously your writing hand, so don't force it.

My mother is still pregnant, so supporting her body to cook is not a long-term solution.

My in-laws’ grandfather has a cow and three horses to feed, so just cutting grass is not easy. "

After the output, Zhu Yinniang shut her mouth angrily.

"Aside from these reasons, the more important thing is that everyone is unprofessional."

Li Yao pointed it out directly.

"Leave professional things to professionals!"

"I think it's okay!" Wang Zheng supported, "I think the three brothers of the Ming family are really good."

"Yao'er is right." Li Yueyan also agreed, "Our family just does whatever they used to do. It's better to hire someone to build the house here."

"Wang Zheng and I will not give up. We will buy whatever we need. We will try to build this house within a month."

This is a deal.

Li Yao winked at Su.

Mrs. Su took out the banknote she had prepared early in the morning and said, "Here is 200 taels. Our family will be responsible for all the money in this house."

Wang Zheng suddenly turned dark, "What do you mean?"
