The Daily Life of a Rich Peasant's Boy in the Imperial Examination

Because the road was repaired, we didn’t have to run far before we arrived at Aojiawan, which is a bird droppings workshop.

Sun Shan once again looked at the Sun family's fine horse with satisfaction and said approvingly, "Not bad, not bad. It has great strength and runs very fast. It is worthy of being my good horse."

Sun Dali is usually the captain of the bodyguard team, and he is also an expert driver when necessary. Now he has mastered the art of driving a carriage and can do it with ease.

He patted the little grandson's head happily and said admiringly, "Yes, Master, our little grandson is becoming more and more well-behaved and obedient, and he is also becoming more and more handsome."

Although being well-behaved, obedient and pretty does not prove that a horse has good legs, Sun Dali believes so.

County Magistrate Wang next to him: .....

What the hell! What little Sun? What Sun family horse?

It's obviously the Wang family's!

It was just robbed by the bandit Sun Shan, and then became the property of the Sun family. County Magistrate Wang tried his best to inhale deeply, exhale deeply, and take a deep breath, telling himself not to be angry, not to be angry.

Whether for public or private reasons, Sun Shan did save Jun Yazi's life, so he deserved to be given a horse.

But seeing Lord Sun showing off in front of him all day long, County Magistrate Wang felt very uncomfortable and wanted to secretly pull the Wang family's horse back.

Sun Shan was completely unaware of County Magistrate Wang's resentment and strode forward towards the workshop.

The village chief of Big Bird Village, who was guarding the gate, saw Sun Shan from a distance and wanted to run forward to greet Sun Shan like the old man did.

He just squatted on the door panel for too long and couldn't get up. When he got up, Sun Shan was already in front of him.

The village chief said excitedly, "Sir, sir, you are here. I haven't seen you for a long time. How have you been recently? Is everything going well?"

Sun Shan looked at the village chief in confusion, smiled, and nodded: "Village chief, I'm fine. Why are you here?"

The village chief said cheerfully, "I have nothing to do, so I came over here to take a look and help watch the gate. Haha, it's just after the New Year, and there's no work in the fields. Anyway, I don't know where to go at home, so I came over to watch the gate."

Speaking of doormen, I just remembered that I should hire a security guard.

Although the guano workshop is located in a remote area, it still needs a gatekeeper to appear formal.

Sun Shan said, "Village Chief, as you suggested, we should hire a gatekeeper for the workshop. Village Chief, do you have any recommendations?"

When the village chief heard that Sun Shan wanted to hire a gatekeeper, he wanted to say, "Why hire one? It would be enough to just lock the gate. There's no need to hire anyone and it would be a waste of money."

But I heard the second half of the sentence and recommended it.

The village chief did a 360-degree turn and said in agreement, "Sir, we do need to hire a gatekeeper."

He paused, pointed to the gate and said, "We need to build a small room here so the gatekeeper can eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep here, and watch over the gate twelve hours a day. Just like today, when the master came, there was no one to greet him. This is really bad."

Sun Shan looked at the village chief in surprise. Oh, this old man is really thoughtful. He even thought of the security booth.

Then the village chief said, "Sir, what are the requirements for the person you want to hire? Do you want a man or someone a little older? Sir, as a gatekeeper, it is enough to hire an old man. It is not cost-effective to hire a man.

"I'd like to hire a master who is easy to wake up and wake up as soon as there is any disturbance. He can guarantee that he can guard the house well. Haha, sir, there are many people in our village who can do this kind of guarding. Sir, do you want them to line up one by one so that you can take a look and choose?"

Sun Shan was embarrassed.

Others choose concubines and beauties, but he chooses a rich man and an old man with all his teeth fallen out.

Sun Shan smiled and said, "I'll tell Steward Sun about this and have him take a look."

Seeing the disappointment in the village chief's eyes, he smiled inwardly and added seriously, "Elect in Big Bird Village."

When the village chief heard this, his wrinkled face immediately blossomed into a brilliant black flower, and he said happily: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."

County Magistrate Wang next to him rolled his eyes again.

Walking along the way and talking to the peasants all the way, how much time was wasted.

County Magistrate Wang had wanted to come over and take a quick look, but he was delayed by Sun Shan and would definitely not be able to go back tomorrow.

We have to stay in this remote place in the mountains, where there is nothing but mosquitoes, snakes and ants. It is so painful.

And there was a pile of raw bird droppings not far away, and the smell was so stinky.

County Magistrate Wang had previously built a road here and had endured many hard times, losing more than ten pounds. He couldn't lose the fat he had finally gained back, so he had to finish the inspection early and return home early.

The village chief and Sun Shan chatted as they walked.

The village chief was beaming with joy as he spoke: "Sir, the workers didn't slack off during the New Year holiday. They kept busy, ensuring that enough guano fertilizer would be produced before spring plowing, so that spring fertilization wouldn't be delayed."

Sun Shan nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

The village chief quickly waved his hand and said, "Sir, it's not hard. Our village is very grateful to you. With such a guano workshop, the villagers will have jobs."

Then he looked around and whispered, "Sir, many people have come here to ask if the workshop is still hiring. Many people want to work here. Not only from the next village, but also from the next town. Sir, everyone is envious of working here."

I don't know who spread the word that the bird droppings workshop was recruiting workers, but as soon as they heard the news, everyone came over to inquire.

The guano workshop is in such a remote place, I wonder how these people know the way?

In just a few months, Da Niao Village has received more visitors than since its establishment.

This made the village chief both proud and helpless.

Especially when I see them leaving in disappointment, I feel so sorry for them.

Of course, it's just a pity. No matter how much you say, it's useless. You're giving up your job opportunity.

Bah, wishful thinking!

The guano workshop was built very large from the beginning. In addition to the houses for human accommodation, there were also greenhouses. Then there was a large open space, a large open space, as big as seven or eight football fields, stretching as far as the eye could see.

Sun Shan thought that since the land here was free, he could just enclose the land first and then develop it slowly later.

If the land is not enclosed, some people may come and occupy it for business opportunities or for other purposes.

Haha, you have to think before doing anything. Even if the workshop is located somewhere, you have to own it first.

The village chief led Sun Shan to the "office" and saw Sun Dingnan sorting out the account books.

Sun Dalang and Sun Erjie were reading "Thousand Character Classic" and practicing calligraphy by making notes on the slate.

He scratched his ears and cheeks from time to time, looking like a college loser.

Sun Shan secretly glanced at the words on the stone slab that were bigger than a cow. Oh, the writing is really bad.

When the three men saw Sun Shan, their faces were filled with smiles. Sun Dingnan happily shouted, "Master, you're here."

Sun Dalang and Sun Erjie immediately hid the book and slate, as if they were afraid that Sun Shan would see what they had written.

He hurried over and saluted: "Master, you are here."
