It’s because Lin Shuangshuang lives in Hegou Village that they have the opportunity to get the moon first.

Others would be so envious that they are still not satisfied.

"Village chief, I have no objection. Don't just say 50%, I'd be willing to accept 60%."

"Yes, yes. I have no objection."

"Just do as the village chief says. Everyone has no objection."

The village chief nodded with satisfaction, and then talked about the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled in the village. He said that they would be assigned manual work within their capabilities and would also be counted as labor force.

No one in the village objected to this. We are all from the same village, so it is only natural for us to help each other.

Besides, everyone will have difficulties, get sick, and grow old one day. Leaving a way out for others is leaving a way out for yourself.

Seeing that everything had been resolved, the village chief prepared to adjourn the meeting.

At this time, Lin Shuangshuang heard the news and came over. When she learned that the village chief wanted to give her a 50% dividend, Lin Shuangshuang said she would not agree to anything.

She wanted to transform the village, firstly to pave the way for Xiaochen, and secondly to help the villagers improve their lives, not to make money for herself.

If she wants to make money, there are many ways for her to do so. There is no need to compete with the villagers.

Besides, she is a woman with two children and can't spend that much money.

Money is something outside of your body, you cannot bring it with you when you are born and you cannot take it with you when you die. Just make sure you have enough to spend!

In fact, she doesn't have high material demands, and she works hard to make money in order to open up more space.

Lin Shuangshuang proposed only 10%, but under the insistence of the village chief and villagers, they finally decided to give her 30%.

Lin Shuangshuang had no choice but to agree, not wanting to let everyone down.

Helping you make more money in the future is more practical than anything else!

After discussing the issue of dividends and division of labor, Grandpa Meizi suddenly asked, "Master Lin, I heard that the printing factory and paper mill are about to recruit workers. Can we find people from other villages to work here?"

"I have two grandchildren, both of whom are down-to-earth and capable."

"I wonder if I can..."

Before Grandpa Mei Zi could finish his words, the villagers disagreed.

"Papermaking and printing are both technical skills. How can we let people from other villages learn them?"

"Yes, if people from other villages learn this, won't they steal our business?"

“We can’t let people from other villages come.”

"Even if we have to work, we'll just be digging holes and planting trees."

Anyone can do these jobs, so there's no need to worry about someone stealing their knowledge.

Some people also asked: "Can we hire people from other villages to dig holes and plant trees? We can pay them and then let the villagers work in the printing factory and paper mill?"

Mrs. Chen immediately perked up: "We only have one laborer, Datian, and our share of dividends is small."

"Can Datian and I go to work in the factory, and then let my nephew from my mother's side do the work of repairing the village?"

"The work done by my nephew counts as the labor force of my family."

"I want some nephews to come and give me some heads."

After Mrs. Chen said this, many people were moved.

As the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family. There is so much work to do in the village now, and they are reluctant to miss any of it, whether it is the dividends in five years or the wages they can earn now.

If I could earn wages in a factory and repair the village myself, wouldn't that mean I could earn money from the factory and also get dividends?

Lin Shuangshuang saw that all the villagers had the same idea, even the Yang and Wang families had the same idea, which forced her to consider it.

Later on, she also wanted to build a soap factory, a clothing factory, a perfume factory, and an oil press. She planted rapeseed and peanuts to extract oil and soap.

With this calculation, it turns out that there are indeed not enough people in the village, and we need to recruit people from other villages.

Lin Shuangshuang nodded: "Okay, I'll go back and think about it and see how to make it more appropriate."

"I'll call a meeting when I think it over."

"Don't tell other villages about this matter, and don't go around shouting about making money or getting rich, or you'll make others jealous."

"Don't risk your life before you earn any money."

"Winter is coming soon. Maybe bandits will come into the village to celebrate the New Year. If our village has a bad reputation, I'm afraid it will be uneasy."

When everyone heard this, they immediately tightened their necks, and felt terrified when they thought of those bandits coming into the village to celebrate the New Year.

In the past, during the Chinese New Year, bandits would come down the mountain to celebrate every year.

There were not many people, and they sneaked into the village in groups of three or five, and then asked the village chief to arrange accommodation and food for them.

The village chief can only give one to each family and take good care of it, and then people will leave in the spring.

Don’t ask why they didn’t kill those bandits. Could it be that all the young and strong laborers in the village couldn’t defeat a few bandits?

The reason I’m asking is because I’m afraid of retaliation!

These bandits are organized and disciplined, and there are records of who goes to which village.

If you don’t go back after the spring, the village will be retaliated against or even massacred!

About three years ago, Qingshui Town and Nanyang Prefecture joined forces to encircle and wipe out a group of bandits, and they had a few years of peace.

Who knows if bandits will sneak into the village again this winter?

The village chief felt frightened when he thought of what happened before, and even gave up the idea of ​​inviting people from other villages.

"Why don't we just invite people from other villages?"

"We should do as much as we can and not be too greedy."

“I’m afraid I’ll earn money but not live to spend it.”

"Yes, if we hire people from other villages, the news that our village is going to build a factory and make renovations will definitely spread out, and we can't keep it secret at all."

"You can't just ask someone to do the work without any explanation when they ask. Who would be willing to do that?"

"Yes, let's just work slowly and do as much as we can."

For a while, no one dared to bring up the matter of people from other villages.

Lin Shuangshuang felt that this was also a problem and needed to be carefully considered.

Alas, success in anything is not easy. Often imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

Just like the matter of transforming the village, she thought it was simple and easy, but before it really started, endless problems emerged and waited for her to solve.

Sure enough, being a leader is not easy.

"Everyone, go back to work. Let me think about this."

"I'll tell you in detail once the rules are finalized."

Everyone dispersed for a while and went about their business. However, whereas they were still worrying about the large labor force yesterday, today they started to worry about the small labor force.

In fact, if there were enough people in the village, they would not want to ask relatives to help.

No matter how close your relatives are, they are still outsiders. How can they be better than having money in your own pocket?

"Don't think about it for now, just get to work. Building a factory is something for the future."

"Maybe it will be delayed until after the New Year. After the New Year, Madam Lin will definitely be able to find a way to solve this matter. She is very smart."

Lin Shuangshuang did not put recruitment at the top of her agenda. After all, the factory had not yet started construction, and she still had time to find a solution.

But enrollment and clothing shops are urgent matters.

I already have a lot of ready-made clothes piled up at home, just waiting for the promotion and choosing an auspicious time to open the business.

As for the academy's enrollment, the school will be completed by the spring of next year, and then we will have to face the problem of enrollment.

Where do the students come from?
