A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 296 Spectacular Scene

The head of the village talked so much, but still didn't get to the point that everyone was most concerned about. Some people became impatient.

Then he asked, "Village head, how is the salary calculated?"

One after another, people began to ask about wages. "Yes! Head of the village, how much is the daily wage? We have to let everyone know the basics."

"I say, you guys are obsessed with money." The village head pointed at those who were making a fuss unhappily, and then said, "How can you be at a disadvantage?"

"Then tell me!" someone else argued.

The village head rolled his eyes at the man and said sternly, "Shuheng, considering that we are all from the same village, gave us 18 copper coins a day's wages, but did not provide meals. After finishing the work, everyone went back to their own homes to eat."

Eighteen copper coins a day was a very high wage. Even during the slack season, when everyone went to the county to find work, they could earn at most fifteen or sixteen copper coins a day, plus two coarse flour steamed buns.

It was a rare opportunity for Hang Shuheng to offer such a high price, and most people were clamoring to sign up, fearing that if they were a step late they would not get the job.

However, there are still some people who have some ulterior motives.

"Why don't we have food? People who work for Shuisheng get food every day, why don't we have food here?"

Someone nearby who was close to the person who was speaking also joined in the fun, "That's right! Isn't this discrimination? Why do others have food to eat, but we don't?"

The village head was so angry that his face turned blue. What did he say? The higher the price, the more people will be dissatisfied. Before anything happened, someone started to cause trouble.

"Since you guys are dissatisfied with not having food to eat, then you should also be dissatisfied with this salary. Go find a job somewhere else that pays 18 copper coins a day and provides food and drink!"

Those people were good at talking, and they wanted to say something to see if they could earn a few more coppers, but they didn't expect that the head of the village would just send them away.

How could this be possible? Several people began to panic, "Village Chief, that's not what we meant..."

But the head of the village did not give them any chance to explain. He announced on the spot that these companies would be excluded from the recruitment this time.

Those guys felt ashamed and ran away in shame. They would probably be hated when they returned home, as they had ruined such a good job just because of their big mouths.

Then, the village head said righteously: "Everyone go back and eat first. If you are willing to work, come to me and sign up today."

"But I'll make it clear in advance. The wages are 18 copper coins a day, including food and drink. If you are willing to work, do it. If you don't want to work, get out. Also, those who are selected to work must work hard and don't think about cheating. If anyone dares to cheat and defraud the wages, when the workshop opens in the future, that family will not be able to work in the workshop anymore."

This can be described as one person's mistake, and the whole family will be implicated! After hearing this, everyone had to be cautious, and they all thought in their hearts that they had to tell everyone in the family not to do such sneaky things, otherwise the whole family would be implicated.

But don’t let the time come when you can’t go to work in the workshop because someone in your family made a mistake, and you can only watch enviously as others earn huge sums of money.

As soon as the village head returned home and had his meal, people started to come to his door to sign up.

The families of those people who had caused the commotion before were replaced by new people, but the village head was upright and honest, and he did not show any mercy to these families.

"This is just a lesson for them. Next time, you should not work in the workshop. People with bad intentions will only ruin the atmosphere."

Several families came in dejected mood and left in dejected mood, secretly cursing the culprit in their hearts.

However, they did not give up. After leaving the village head, they went to the Hang family again, hoping to start with Hang Shuheng. After all, Hang Shuheng was the boss, and as long as he nodded, the village head would not be able to say anything.

But what they didn't expect was that Hang Shuheng had no intention of interfering in the matter of hiring people. He only said that the matter had been fully entrusted to the head of the village, and asked them to go to the head of the village to register.

Those families were ashamed. If the village head could get the job done, would they still have to come to him, the real boss?

After a series of setbacks, the families no longer held out hope and could only go home to criticize the foul-mouthed culprit.

It only took half a day for the head of the village to count the number of people, and in the evening he brought the list to Hang Shuheng for review.

Hang Shuheng did not raise any opinions. Since he had entrusted the matter to the head of the village, he would no longer ask questions or interfere. This could be considered a disguised way of respecting others.

The head of the village was extremely efficient. He organized the team the next day and led everyone to the wasteland to start work.

Today, Zhou Ting and Zhou Ru, a brother and sister, came for a rare visit. Zhou Ting left his sister behind and followed Hang Shuheng and others to inspect the work.

At a glance, across the dozens of acres of wasteland, you can see people busy at work, and the scene is spectacular.

"Are we going to start work now?" Zhou Ting asked after expressing his feelings.

Hang Shuheng shook his head. "Not so fast yet. The design drawings haven't been drawn yet. But it wouldn't hurt to clean up the land first."

On the other side, Zhou Ru and Song Ning hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about. This time, they brought a lot of snacks and gadgets back from the provincial capital.

A while ago, the brother and sister went to the provincial capital to attend the fourteenth birthday party of Zhao Yunxi, the daughter of the prefect.

As Zhou Ting had some things to do, he needed to stay in the provincial capital for a while, so Zhou Ru had to wait there. After he finished his work, the brother and sister returned to the county town together.

Just came back yesterday, and today I came to Shangtang Village.

Zhou Ru felt that it would be better to stay in the county town. Sister Song was considerate and a good sister who cared about her.

Unlike when she was in the capital city, Zhao Yunxi, that unruly young lady, always pestered her and annoyed her all day long.

Yangyang hadn't seen his beautiful aunt for a long time and was very happy. He took her to the backyard to see the rabbits he raised.

No girl can resist a white, furry little animal, and Zhou Ru is no exception.

She shamelessly asked Yangyang for one, and Yangyang hesitated for a long time before finally giving her one reluctantly.

When Mudun came over, he saw Zhou Ru holding a snow-white rabbit, and Xianghuan was standing next to her, touching it from time to time.

"Sister Xianghuan, do you like rabbits too?"

"I like it! Rabbits are so docile and cute, no one would dislike them!"

Mudun rolled his eyes and said, "If you like it, I'll catch one and give it to you next time Grandpa Chai takes us up the mountain."

Song Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Apart from her, no one knew this boy's little thoughts. He really worried a lot.

"Really? That's great! I'll be waiting for you to catch the little rabbit for me." Xianghuan thought he was just talking like a child and didn't take it seriously.
