Hua Manlou glanced at her, rolled his eyes, and wrote down another payment:

"If you're bored, just go down the mountain and don't get in the way here."

Shen Lishu's eyes widened, hey, you're getting bolder!

How dare you talk to her like that!

Hua Manlou shook the account book in his hand and said, "How about you do it?"

Shen Lishu raised his whip hand and then put it down silently.

Forget it, she is a magnanimous boss after all!

Shen Feng smiled as he watched her leave. "I never realized before that our daughter has leadership skills."

"Even your daughter's farts smell good."

Zhou Lihua said unhappily, but she couldn't hide the pride in her eyes.

There is a lot of noise at the foot of the mountain right now.

Because Shen Lishu said that everyone, regardless of gender, age or status, can come to work.

Then there must be many people who want to take advantage of the situation and act cheatingly.

Even if someone in charge warns them once, there are still people who commit crimes in defiance of the law.

Some people even secretly brought their own five or six-year-old girls, lied about their ages and asked them to work.

The old man and woman with gray hair who walked unsteadily said they were forty years old.

The poisonous dragon expressed doubt and even more confusion.

But that doesn't stop him from using thundering means to suppress all those sneaky guys.

A grown man with all his limbs doing the job of clearing dead branches and leaves for children and the elderly?

Drag away, drag away.

Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be whipped first!

He is a bandit, but he has no sympathy.

The old man and the child who walked unsteadily, although they could not do much work, they always worked very hard and never stopped to rest.

Make a note of this!

Return reward.

In just one morning, Dulong caught many people.

No matter how violent those people were, as long as they did not interfere with his work, Dulong would not care.

After today's incident, Shen Lishu's reputation in the village is no longer so good.

Many people say that she is cruel and ruthless in her actions.

But she thought it was a good thing. The things she had done were enough to get her head cut off, and having a bad relationship with the villagers was a kind of protection for them.

The lunch was sweet rice porridge with multi-grain steamed buns, and the dish was stewed meat with beans.

"There's rice porridge and meat!"

You have to know that poor people may not be able to eat rice many times in their entire lives!

Although their area is rich in rice, it is always handed over or sold.

Every year after the new rice is harvested, only a small amount of rice is left, and during the New Year, some thin porridge is made for the whole family to eat.

Not to mention that many girls have never eaten a big piece of meat even once in their lives.

Each slice is cut thickly, big and greasy.

It was just that since it was the first day, everyone was too hungry and there were too many people, so only a limited number of items could be distributed.

People who have a big appetite may not necessarily be able to eat their fill, but it is definitely fine to eat until they are 80% full.

They are all victims of hunger, and they are so grateful to be able to eat such meals!

I thought it would be good enough for everyone to have a bowl of mixed grain porridge with pickles, but I didn’t expect there would be meat dishes as well!

Everyone was smiling happily during the meal, and even the unpleasantness from being scolded in the morning disappeared.

Those who were kicked out for being sneaky and dishonest were regretting it so much that their intestines turned green.

After lunch and a short break, these people worked much more energetically in the afternoon and everyone worked very hard!

Not to mention the wages, just for the food, no one was willing to be kicked out.

Evening, sunset

"It's time to pay the wages!"

Following Hua Manlou's loud shout, the brothers carried two large baskets of copper coins onto the table.

The disaster victims immediately gathered in a circle, talking at the same time, and it became a complete chaos.

Fortunately, Shen Lishu had foresight and arranged many people to guard the money frame and maintain order early on.

She stood at the front and took the record book from the Poison Dragon. When she looked at it, she felt a darkness before her eyes!

She looked at what other people had written down, and everything went dark before her eyes again.

"What are these circles and crosses?"

It’s a very good booklet, full of ink but without a single word!

Shen Lishu said that he really couldn't understand it.

Dulong scratched his head awkwardly, "I am a rough man and I can't write..."

He caught a glimpse of Cuiwei's beautiful and neat hairpin calligraphy, and his old face turned red.

He is worse than a woman!

Shen Lishu took a deep breath, and then another deep breath... Don't be angry, don't be angry. These were all his subordinates that he had worked hard to recruit. No matter how bad they were, he had to bear with them.

Shen Lishu threw the booklet back to him and said unhappily, "You can write it down and publish it yourself!"

"Cuiwei assists, Huamanlou keeps accounts."

Shen Lishu covered his forehead and walked to the side with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

It seems that the literacy campaign is imminent. The literacy class will start tonight!

Du Long took the booklet, climbed onto the table and stood up, shouting, "Line up! Everyone line up, if you don't line up properly you won't get paid!"

After these words were spoken, no one dared to crowd in anymore, and soon two lines were formed.

Du Long said to his ghost painting, "Niu Da, work hard, and I'll pay you twenty cents!"

"Ah? Why, why are there so many?" The man with a simple and honest face was confused.

"Oh, because you didn't slack off, the extra money is a reward, take it quickly!" The poisonous dragon glanced at him lightly with its one eye.

The man was so frightened that his legs went limp. He quickly took the copper coin, thanked him, and made way.

In fact, the two-cent wage set by Shen Lishu was only the minimum standard.

She hopes that those old and weak people who have no strong laborers in their families but work very hard can also have the opportunity to make money, giving them a chance to survive.

These people have limited strength and can't actually do much work

But as long as they don't get lazy and are willing to work hard, they can get the two cents and have enough food to eat every day.

She will also give extra rewards to those who are more capable and work the hardest, and will not let their hard work go to waste.

In addition, if you are a bricklayer or carpenter who can build a house, the treatment will be different.

Since today is the first day, only a few people received twenty cents, and most people received ten cents.

Only some old people and children were paid two cents.

Shen Lishu is a person who is both hard-hearted and soft-hearted.

Not only did his subordinates not understand, Lin Chen also said that he did not quite understand her train of thought:

“Why not just define the salary levels right from the start?”

Shen Lishu smiled and played with the whip as he walked:

“There are many people in this world who take advantage of opportunities. If I set such a high salary from the beginning, they will just think it is their due.

But when I told them that it was because I saw their efforts that they were able to get such high pay.

Then, they will be grateful to me and work harder.

I spent the same money but got a different result.”

Lin Chen was stunned.

So... is this possible?

He couldn't tell whether this was right or wrong, but it was still calculating.

"You're telling me just like that? Aren't you afraid they'll know?"

Shen Lishu chuckled, his eyes full of pride: "So what if you know?

I paid them real money, and no matter which method it was, what they got was what they could really hold in their hands.”

"You...you!" Lin Chen's face flushed. "How can you be so scheming!"

The 17- or 18-year-old boy has been living in the village

The darkness that we come into contact with the most is just someone stealing someone else's chicken, or someone occupying a few acres of someone else's land.

His world is simple and unpretentious, full of young passion and experience of life and death.

Who would have thought that the girl who fell in love for the first time in her life already had blood on her hands.

I never expected that she could say such words that play with people's hearts!

Lin Chen thought Shen Lishu was a young lady who was ignorant of the ways of the world, but he didn't expect that she was actually a wolf in sheep's clothing.

It was really hard to accept for a moment, and he even wondered how he fell in love with her?

Shen Lishu smiled, not angry at all because of his words, and shook the deed in his hand.

"Thank you and the village chief for your hard work today. This is your reward. I'll treat you to a drink later!"

Lin Chen didn't take the bag of silver. "No need. This is our duty."

He had to calm down and left without even having the chance to express his joy at the successful breakup of the engagement.

Alas, okay.

She was just telling the truth, but she didn't expect that he couldn't bear it.

Shen Lishu sighed, took back the silver, and walked home alone.

I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, mainly because Brother Lin Chen is really good-looking!

The sky gradually darkened. After finishing his business with Dulong, he returned to the town with a few of his brothers.

There are still many bedridden girls in the house over there. Shen Lishu is worried about them, so someone has to go back to look after them.

But most of the brothers stayed behind to guard the supplies in the yard.

The weather is hot nowadays, so as long as you keep away mosquitoes, you won't feel cold sleeping in a shack at night.

We are all brothers who have suffered together and will not complain about the difficult conditions.

In order to compensate them, Shen Lishu asked Taohua and the others to prepare extra meals and cook more meat for everyone in the evening.

After dinner, Shen Lishu announced the official start of the literacy class, and a wailing sound suddenly broke out outside the yard.

Although there were complaints everywhere, no one dared to resist.

Shen Lishu's methods have already been demonized in the eyes of these people, and their hair hasn't even grown out yet!

Shen Feng is in charge of the class. Shen Lishu does not have high requirements for them, as long as they can recognize and write.

Even so, Dulong scratched his head and muttered, "How come writing this mosquito-like word is harder than killing someone!"

Shen Lishu was afraid that his father would hear him, so he glared at him fiercely.

Zhou Lihua came out and pulled Shen Lishu into the house, saying excitedly: "Girl, I want to eat cicada monkeys..."

Alas, who would have thought that the history professor who appears to be gentle and knowledgeable is actually a foodie.

Especially like junk food and various fried insects.

Shen Lishu looked at the mountains and forests in the distance. She heard the chirping of cicadas during the day, so she should be able to catch them.

"Okay then, wait until they get out of class, I'll take a few people to catch them, and you prepare the frying pan at home."

"Hey! My daughter is still the best!"

Zhou Lihua was happy and relieved, and everything seemed pleasing to her. "Girl, I suddenly think Lin Chen is a good kid, you can get to know him."

Shen Lishu was full of questions, "Mom, did you take the wrong medicine?"

"You..." Zhou Lihua was so angry that she slapped him, "You unlucky child! Who am I doing this for?

I heard that Lin Chen's fiancée was favored by the Lord of Phoenix City and taken as a concubine. Today Lin Chen went into the city to find her.

As a result, they happened to catch up with the girl riding in a sedan chair into the city lord's mansion, and Lin Ge'er was broken off by the girl. "

Shen Lishu covered his head in shock, "Where did you hear that?"

"He's from the village. Anyway, Brother Lin is a good kid. Don't miss him."

Shen Lishu was speechless, "You didn't say that. I'm still young, so there's no need to rush. Mom, you're so fickle."

After saying that, she ran away. If she didn't leave, she would probably be slapped on the head again.

Sure enough, Zhou Lihua's roaring voice came from behind.

Half an hour later, the literacy class ended. Only five words were taught today, but more than half of the students still couldn't write them.

Shen Feng rubbed his swollen forehead and went into the house. It was too difficult to teach a group of bandits to write!

Shen Lishu walked outside the yard, looked at a group of lifeless subordinates, took out a pile of red buckets, and said loudly,

"Brothers, let's go into the mountains! How about I give you some snacks to go with your wine?"

Someone immediately dropped the branch he was practicing calligraphy on and stood up to ask, "Are you hunting? But isn't it inappropriate at night?"

Shen Lishu shook his head and said mysteriously, "No, this delicacy is only available at night.

Anyone who wants to go, come get a bucket and a flashlight!"

"Oh my gosh!" Hua Manlou was the first to jump out, carrying a red plastic bucket.

The cool and handsome young man in white clothes was carrying a red plastic bucket!

Tsk, the more Shen Lishu looked at it, the more it felt awkward.

After a while, the flashlights were all distributed, and she gave everyone a mosquito repellent bracelet.

This is an old-fashioned high-tech mosquito repellent product produced by Shen Litian. It is very easy to use and can not only repel mosquitoes, but also poisonous insects, snakes and ants.

After preparing everything, Shen Lishu led his men into the mountains.

She didn't walk far before she found her first target of the night.

"Look, this is what we are looking for!

This is the appearance of the cicada before it sheds its shell. They will crawl out of the soil at night and then climb onto the tree to shed their shell. Look carefully!

This stuff is delicious when fried, and it’s also nutritious!”

Hua Manlou looked at it again and again with disdain, "Isn't this just a bug? Can you really eat it?"

"You'll know when you try it later." Shen Lishu caught the cicada monkey and put it into the bucket.

She firmly believes that every stubborn person will fall for the deliciousness of the cicada monkey!

Suddenly someone shouted, "Boss! I found one."

Shen Lishu walked over, took it and looked at it: "Yes, this is it, well done!"

The crowd slowly dispersed, flashlights flickering in the woods, accompanied by one after another, "There's one here!"

"I have one here too!"

Shen Lishu also turned around and continued to look at the tree trunk. After a while, he had picked up half a bucket of fruits.

I guess people here don't eat this. The woods are almost overrun with cicada monkeys. No wonder they are so noisy during the day.

Unconsciously, the crowd became more and more dispersed. Shen Lishu turned around and there was no one behind him!

broken!

It’s too dangerous in the deep mountains and forests late at night!

Shen Lishu hurriedly stuffed the bucket into the space and looked for people everywhere following the faint light.

She had the Wind Talisman, so she moved very quickly, and soon she had gathered a dozen or so people who were accompanying her.

"No! Where is Hua Manlou?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Liu Neng, you take your men down the mountain first, I'll go find him."

Before going up the mountain, I told him many times not to stay too far away from me, but now, the weakest one is lost!

Shen Lishu was extremely anxious and used several wind talismans in a row to find someone.

Unconsciously, she went deeper and deeper into the forest.

Suddenly, she saw a dark figure in the distance waving at her.

It was too far away, and the flashlight couldn't make it clear. I could only vaguely see a figure.

Shen Lishu breathed a sigh of relief. He guessed that the flashlight was lost, no wonder he couldn't be found.

Suddenly, another dark shadow appeared in her sight. This dark shadow was obviously much shorter than the previous one.

He had his back to her and was running quickly towards the dark shadow that was waving at him.

Shen Lishu suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart...

wrong!
