Traveling through time with billions of supplies to become a farmer's little fortune
Chapter 267: Advance wages and distribute rice and flour to employees
“We offer you the highest salary, but we also hope that you can do your best.
After all, we are so busy every day, and for now, there are only workers like you, so everyone’s work will be harder.”
Everyone nodded at this moment. They felt that working here required more diligence and care than working at home.
Otherwise, it would be really a shame to spend the money you have earned.
Then Xiao Xia gave each person one or two taels of silver and said, "This silver is temporarily advanced to you by my little princess.
I know that some of you have a long journey and may need to take a ox cart, which also costs money for the round trip, so I will advance one or two taels of silver to each of you.
Of course, you can continue to stay in this accommodation, but you can go back if you want.
These are the rice and flour prepared for you by our little princess. It can be considered a benefit for new employees!
Later on, the little princess will also distribute some employee benefits from time to time!"
These men's eyes reddened as they looked at the bags of fine rice and flour being unloaded from the carriages outside.
The two cooks were crying, but they hurriedly wiped their tears away for fear of scaring the little princess.
But the more I wiped away the tears, the more they came and I couldn't stop them from flowing down.
Su Muyao shed tears of bitterness when she saw this, it was all because of poverty.
"Today is a half-day holiday. Everyone will get a bag of rice, flour and a bucket of oil. Go home early today to relax. We will be busy starting tomorrow."
Everyone choked up and said, "Yes."
After Su Muyao finished speaking, she turned around and left. However, when everyone saw the little girl walk out the door, they started to clamor excitedly.
The two cooks hugged each other and cried loudly.
With so much money, the children in the family can all eat good food.
Especially, although Mrs. Li has only two children in her family, they are very smart.
The eldest son wanted to go to school the most, but there was no money to support two children's education. The two children would always secretly run to the outside of the teacher's courtyard and watch the children inside study.
Every time the eldest son came back, he would start practicing on the floor what words he had eavesdropped on.
Nowadays, it is no problem to have enough money every month to support the two children's education.
The steward looked at the excited crowd and said, "The young princess is very kind to everyone, and the treatment she gives is unmatched in the capital.
But let me be frank with you: if you don't work hard, you will still be kicked out.
The princess is very generous and gives us the best, so we should also work hard, so if there are those who are sneaky and cunning, don't blame me for being ruthless.
Well, today is a half-day holiday, so you should go back early and come early tomorrow."
As soon as the housekeeper finished speaking, several men began to speak in unison: "Housekeeper, don't worry, we will definitely do a good job!"
"Yes, butler, if you see that we don't work hard in the future, you can just whip us, hehe."
One of the men laughed and scratched the back of his head after he said this.
Everyone warned themselves in their hearts that they must work hard and must not lose this job.
The butler waved his hand and told everyone to go back! He stayed in the store and continued to put pills on the shelves.
Everyone was excited and took the taels of silver, rice, flour and oil they were given and hurried back in high spirits.
They first went to a bank to exchange their money for copper coins, bought some things they needed in the capital, and brought some candies back home for their children.
Madam Li and Madam Wang bought some cloth and meat, and for the first time ever, they took a ox cart back to the village, spending two copper coins.
The other men also got on the ox carts back to their own villages. It was really too tiring to carry so many things back.
As soon as Mrs. Li arrived home, she saw her mother-in-law picking vegetables in the yard. She looked up and saw her daughter-in-law coming back, and she frowned.
"Why did Li Xiang come back so early today? Is it because they don't want anyone there anymore?"
The old lady felt a little uneasy after asking this question. After all, her husband had been ill for the past two days and there was really not much money at home.
I am old and can only rely on my son. If my son and daughter-in-law can earn money, they can save my wife's life. If not, I am afraid my wife will not be able to get through this.
Li Xiang first took off the large backpack on her back, and then replied, "Mom, I will keep working over there.
Today, the little princess said that we had worked hard, so she gave us half a day off. We bought some things and came back soon."
The old lady rummaged through the contents of the backpack and found that she was not mistaken: they were actually refined rice and refined flour.
"Hey, Xiang'er, why did you buy such a good thing? How much does it cost?"
The old lady just finished speaking and then changed her mind. It was not right. Even if she was selling, she couldn't buy so many things with the work she did in the past two days.
Not to mention two bags, even three or five kilograms of refined rice is not available!
Then the old lady thought, is Li Xiang out there?
Although she trusted Li Xiang very much, these things were right in front of her!
Madam Li looked at the old lady's suspicious eyes and said quickly: "Mother, don't think too much, these are all sent by the little princess, and there is oil!
The young princess was very nice and agreed to give us six taels of silver per month. She said that it would cost money for us to take the ox cart back and forth, so she advanced one tael of silver to each of us.
Mother, I took the initiative to buy some pork and some candy that the children like to eat with this tael of silver, and the rest is here."
Li Xiang took out the remaining 900 coins and handed them to her mother-in-law.
The old lady was very angry at this time. She really shouldn't have doubted her daughter-in-law.
Suddenly I thought of the six taels of silver my daughter-in-law mentioned!
"What? Six taels of silver a month."
Li Xiang nodded and smiled.
The old lady was really shocked. What was the concept of six taels of silver? They were lucky to save one tael of silver after spending money on food and drink all year round.
Especially since they are quite far away from the capital, those employers don't want people like them at all.
At this time, Dazhu also came back. As soon as he stepped into the yard, he saw his mother and wife standing together talking about something. Then he looked at the two of them in confusion as he saw so many things on the ground.
Li Xiang explained the whole thing to her husband, and the family happily started to prepare lunch.
The old lady knew the little princess, and she was really like a little fairy as people said.
Look at how many dignitaries there are in Beijing? But no rich person has ever paid so much money to hire these ordinary people.
Most of the time, they are just given a little money and then they are forced to work themselves to death.
But most people would think that as long as they can get some money, they would be willing to work hard for a little bit.
After all, having a job is not easy to come by.
Li Xiang was cooking with her mother-in-law in the kitchen. The two children had just returned from playing outside and smelled the aroma of meat as soon as they entered the door.
The eldest son was a little puzzled. Why were they suddenly roasting meat during this unusual festival?
After all, in his understanding, meat is only available during the Chinese New Year and important days, and normally there is absolutely no trace of meat.
When the old lady saw her two grandsons coming back, she instructed her son to give them candies.
When the two little guys saw the candy, they found that it was the candy that the village chief's son had eaten, and they were very excited.
The younger one was dancing with joy: "Ahhh, thank you grandma, it's Tang Xuanxuan who wants to eat it."
The old lady looked at the two little guys happily and said, "This is not bought by grandma for you. This is bought by your mother for you two."
"thank you"
The two little guys happily got the candies, and then happily told their mother in the kitchen about the interesting things that happened outside.
Looking at the smiles of the two children, Li Xiang became more determined to work hard in the shop.
She turned to look at her mother-in-law and said, "Mom, the doctor said that Dad needs to buy some nourishing herbs to drink every day. Let Dazhu go buy some later.
Take care of Dad first. I have this much money every month. When Dad is well, we will send Dabao and Erbao to school."
When the old lady heard her daughter-in-law say this, she choked up for a moment.
Old man Wang, who was outside to see his two little grandchildren, suddenly had tears in his eyes when he heard what his daughter-in-law said to his wife.
It was my frail body that dragged down my two little grandsons. Now my daughter-in-law is so capable and earns so much for the family. I heard from my son that she earns six taels of salary this month.
When I think about how much my two grandsons want to study, but they have to focus on themselves first, I feel sad.
But I am not too old and I want to cure my illness. Who would want to die at a young age?
There is hope, and of course I want to live a good life.
The doctor said that his health was ruined because of years of hard work and lack of income.
"Alas," Old Man Wang sighed and went back to his room.
……
Those men also carried large and small bags back to the village, which made some passers-by envious.
