The unlucky fake daughter was screwed by the rotten system
Chapter 68 Contracting the Lotus Field
Master Xuanzhen, who was hiding secretly not far away, was full of doubts.
He really couldn't understand why Yun Zhizhi came to this place where there were neither lotus flowers nor people, and stayed there for such a long time.
What made him feel even more surprised was that Yun Zhizhi was pointing at the large lotus field, as if she was going to do something big.
Later, Yun Zhizhi asked several passers-by and found out that this lotus field was actually owned by the government.
So, they immediately rushed to the government office without stopping. On the way, Yun Zhizhi made a quick decision to improve efficiency - to act separately!
She instructed He Yang and Xiao Tao, "You two are responsible for recruiting people, but remember, the upper limit is one hundred people."
After hearing this, He Yang couldn't help but look astonished and asked in confusion: "Do we need to recruit so many people?"
"Of course! We're only setting up our stall here for seven days, and this piece of land is at least a hundred acres. Only by recruiting enough people can we ensure that all the lotus roots in the soil are dug out within these seven days."
Immediately afterwards, Yun Zhizhi told them the specific recruitment requirements, as well as information such as wages and working hours.
Seeing Yun Zhizhi's worried look, He Yang curled up his lips and showed a confident smile.
He patted his chest lightly and assured her in a firm tone, "Boss, don't worry! I will definitely complete the task successfully."
After all, it was just a matter of recruiting some people, which wasn't a difficult task. Furthermore, the salary was so high, he didn't believe the local people wouldn't be tempted.
On the other side, inside the government office.
Xu Zhubu was sitting at the table, concentrating on helping the prefect deal with some trivial official business.
Suddenly, a tall and burly yamen runner walked in hurriedly.
He approached Xu Zhubu cautiously, lowered his voice, and whispered a few words in his ear.
After hearing these words, Xu Zhubu's face instantly became very surprised.
He immediately put down the brush in his hand and raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of confusion and shock: "Are you serious?"
The bailiff nodded: "Really! I even asked twice to confirm."
Xu Zhubu never expected that someone would come to the yamen and want to contract the large lotus field in the western suburbs.
What is even more surprising is that the other party only plans to contract the project for seven days.
It is now the end of August, and the lotus field has long passed its flowering period and has no ornamental value at all.
Why on earth would that weirdo choose to contract this worthless piece of land?
It's really puzzling.
However, for Xu Zhubu, none of this mattered. What mattered was that since someone was willing to offer money to them, they naturally wouldn't refuse.
After all, such good things don't come often.
Thinking of this, a happy smile appeared on his face.
"No, I must tell the prefect this great news immediately."
After muttering, Xu Zhubu began to walk towards the study in the inner hall of the yamen.
Yun Zhizhi sat in the yamen's front hall, bored and waiting for the person in charge to appear. She had been waiting here for nearly two quarters of an hour, but still no one showed up.
She couldn't help but mutter: These people are too slow.
At this moment, Xu Zhubu walked into the front hall slowly.
He never expected that the smiling and beautiful girl in front of him was actually the "big fool" who had too much money to spend!
"Girl, do you really want to contract that 100-acre lotus field?"
Yun Zhizhi nodded very seriously.
Xu Zhubu didn't waste any words and said directly: "I can contract it to you, but you need to hand over three hundred taels of silver."
He had already figured it out; if she thought it was too expensive, he could lower the price.
After all, that large lotus field does not require any manpower or material resources to take care of on a daily basis.
They just let it die on its own.
Its only value is that it can attract a wave of tourists to visit Yizhou City every year when the lotus flowers are in full bloom.
Moreover, another very important point is that this girl only contracted the place for a few days instead of buying it outright.
Therefore, no matter how they bid, they will make a profit.
Yun Zhizhi bargained directly: "Two hundred and fifty taels."
Xu Zhubu readily agreed: "Deal."
Seeing his expression as if he treated her as a "big fish", Yun Zhizhi thought: I was careless!
It seems that I didn’t bargain hard enough just now.
Finally, Yun Zhizhi took out a few banknotes and some small change from her bosom and handed them to Xu Zhubu.
After Xu Zhubu took it, he counted it carefully and confirmed that it was correct. Then he began to help Yun Zhizhi go through the contracting procedures.
Soon, the two parties signed the agreement.
Seeing Yun Zhizhi about to leave, Xu Zhubu could no longer suppress his doubts and asked curiously, "Miss, what exactly are you going to do with this lotus field you contracted?"
Ever since he learned that she was going to contract this lotus field, he couldn't figure out what she was going to do with it no matter how hard he tried.
Could it be that she really has a problem with her brain, and is just randomly throwing money around and thinking it's a charity?
Yun Zhizhi smiled mysteriously and deliberately kept everyone in suspense: "Master Xu, if you are free the day after tomorrow, come to the western suburbs and you will know."
After saying that, she strode out of the yamen with He Ping'an.
Only Xu Zhubu was left, standing there in a daze.
Her words completely aroused his curiosity, and he had to make time even if he was not free the day after tomorrow!
Let’s go and see what she’s up to.
the other side.
He Yang brought Xiao Tao to the busiest and most noisy street in Yizhou City, which is also where wealthy families gather.
There are people coming and going, cars and traffic everywhere, and all kinds of sounds are intertwined to form a noisy symphony.
Suddenly, a powerful voice came from a distance, like a huge bell, attracting the attention of many passers-by.
The voice was full of power, which made people curious and looked towards the source of the sound.
"Don't miss it if you pass by! It's a pie in the sky, come and pick it up!"
"Hire workers! Hiring! 200 wen per day, payable on the same day. Seven days' work required."
"Come and sign up quickly!"
Many passers-by heard the job recruitment news and began to think secretly.
If calculated based on this wage, you can get more than one or two taels of silver after working for seven days!
So they all walked towards He Yang.
One of the ladies couldn't wait to ask, "Sir, is it true that you can get 200 coins for just one day's work?"
The others also stared at him eagerly, with expectant expressions in their eyes, as if hoping to get a positive answer from him.
He Yang smiled and nodded: "Of course, we will never deceive you."
The woman was immediately excited when she heard this and quickly recommended herself: "Then hurry up and choose me, choose me! Whether it's washing clothes, cooking, chopping wood, or taking care of children, I'm very skilled. I can be said to be proficient in everything!"
