"Yes, security guards are the people who protect the order and safety of the village. Wei Hai, you also saw it yesterday. There are many stalls at the entrance of our village. Every now and then some hooligans come to harass them. What the security guards have to do is to protect their normal operations." Meng Lan explained.

"So, does this security guard earn a lot?"

Wei Hai was a little moved when he heard Meng Lan's introduction. He could not do other things, but he was the best at teaching hooligans a lesson. However, he was worried that he would not be able to support himself with this job...

"A lot. Food, lodging, and money are provided. Our village is planning to form a security team, but we haven't recruited anyone yet. If you come, Wei Hai, I will ask the village chief to let you be the security captain."

Seeing Wei Hai's interest, Meng Lan immediately struck while the iron was hot. This young man was enthusiastic and had a sense of justice, and most importantly, he was strong and healthy, and was definitely a good candidate for a security guard.

Looking at the tall and mighty Wei Hai in front of her, Meng Lan couldn't help but think of the buildings she had lived in in modern times.

The security guards in several residential areas are all old men. It is estimated that out of ten old men, there are not even nine teeth. She usually doesn't dare to walk past them, for fear that the old men will fall to the ground in the next second.

Although she is not unable to afford the compensation, who would like to suffer unexpected misfortune?

"Auntie, I'm going to be a security guard with you today!"

After hearing what Meng Lan said, Wei Hai quickly agreed, fearing that if he arrived too late, his security captain would be snatched away by someone.

He now had a stable job, and he grinned happily.

After getting rid of the little episode involving Fu Xinren, Meng Lan and the others went to buy the remaining things, and then returned to Daquan Village with Wei Hai in a mighty procession.

Wei Hai also rented the house in the town, and he didn't have any valuables, just two sets of clothes. While Meng Lan was shopping, he went back to get them.

The lease on the house will expire after the New Year, and if you want to continue living there, you have to pay rent again.

Wei Hai planned to follow Meng Lan to Daquan Village first. If he stayed to work as a security guard, he would find time to tell the landlord that he would not rent the house anymore.

As soon as they arrived at Daquan Village, Meng Lan asked He Chuanzong and others to take the donkey cart and the things back home first.

She took Wei Hai to the village chief's house.

He Dazhu's home.

As soon as Meng Lan arrived outside the village chief's house, she saw He Gui sitting not far from the door, carving something in his hands.

"Aunt is here." When He Gui saw Meng Lan coming, he stopped what he was doing, looked up and greeted her.

"Agui, is your father at home?" Meng Lan asked.

"At home, auntie, you can just come in." After He Gui said this, he lowered his head again and carefully carved the wood in his hand.

Meng Lan took Wei Hai straight into the gate. He Gui Niang and He Gui Saozi were drying quilts in the yard. When Meng Lan saw them, she took the initiative to explain her purpose.

"A Gui Niang, I'm here to see the village chief."

"Okay, okay." He Gui Niang agreed, then turned around and shouted into the house.

"Come out quickly, old man. Sanhua wants to see you for something—"

As soon as He Gui Niang finished speaking, He Dazhui ran out in a hurry.

"Sixth wife, what do you want from me?"

"I called the security guard."

As Meng Lan spoke, she turned sideways, leaving Wei Hai behind her completely exposed to He Dazhu's eyes.

"Village Chief, take a look. Is the person I found okay?"

He Dazhu raised his head to look at Wei Hai, but because his neck was raised too high, he almost fell to the ground to look at He Dazhu.

After a long while, He Dazhui smiled with satisfaction.

"Not just okay, it's amazing! You are really capable, Lao Liu's wife, to have found such a powerful young man. I think even ten Chen Da put together can't beat a finger of this young man!"

After He Dazhu finished speaking, he took two steps forward and approached Wei Hai.

"Young man, what's your name?"

"Wei Hai."

"Good, good name." He Dazhu didn't know what was good about the name, but he just wanted to praise it.

"Wei Hai, you will live in the empty house at the entrance of our village from now on. If you want to eat, the village will give you 20 kilograms of coarse rice, 3 kilograms of pork, and 1,000 coins every month. Do you think this is appropriate?"

These things and the money were all collected from the businesses at the entrance of the village, so Wei Hai’s main responsibility was to protect their normal operations.

If the village's business scale expands in the future, the scale and treatment of security guards will increase accordingly.

After hearing what the village chief said, Wei Hai thought about it briefly. The housing problem was solved, and the food problem was also solved.

This amount of rice is enough for an adult to eat for a month, and the people in this village are very kind.

If he saves every month, he can save all the thousand coins.

Although, if he found odd jobs in the town, he could earn more than a hundred coins a day, and it would only take him ten days to earn a thousand coins.

However, odd jobs are not available every day, and those jobs are very physically demanding. He also needs to take care of his own food and lodging.

From this perspective, the security guards in Daquan Village are doing a really good job.

After weighing the pros and cons, Wei Hai replied to the village chief, "Village chief, this is very appropriate."

The two parties reached an agreement and the matter was settled.

He Dazhu happily advanced Wei Hai 500 coins so that he could buy some things for the house and be ready to start work the next day.

After working hard, Meng Lan's family finally built the new house before the snow fell.

In addition to the originally planned rooms, since there was still a piece of vacant land next to her house's yard, Meng Lan simply had a small house built on it.

When making new furniture, Meng Lan also asked the carpenter to make several rows of new shelves and several new tables. All of them were moved into the small house.

The He family had no idea what Meng Lan was planning to do.

It was not until the next day, when the supermarket delivery man Song Chaochao's carriage stopped at their doorstep, that the He family finally figured out what Meng Lan was going to do with the small house.

She plans to sell things in it.

When planning to build this small house, Meng Lan had already decided that she wanted to go back to her old job - being a happy supermarket owner!

Setting up a stall is too tiring and not suitable for a lazy person like her.

This had already been practiced when she was first passed on.

Running a supermarket now should be easier than it was in modern times.

After all, there are special people to deliver the goods, and there are so many people at home to help with the display of goods and cleaning. She is only responsible for collecting the money.

What's more, you have the protection of the village chief and the support of the villagers. You can just lie down and count your money leisurely in your own territory. Is there anything happier in the world than this?

Meng Lan thought about the types of goods sold in the supermarket and decided to base it on her supermarket system.

The main dishes are pork and vegetables, and you can also make sausages here.

The sausages that He Jinliang and He Fengshou had taken from her before made their neighbors envious.
