Wang Zhengguo was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, and he repeatedly offered his hands to Li Fa! Li Fa slapped his hand down and said, "Boy, you are the only person our family has met who can read, write and do math after staying here for more than a month! Go and guard the stall for our family. , our family can spare time to do other errands, and only then can we make a contribution, so if you finish the errands, our family will naturally help you find a way to let the three of you brothers earn more money and work less. !」
At this time, Wang Zhengguo still didn't understand the motivation of these eunuchs to strive for meritorious service and climb up the ladder. He just thought that Eunuch Li was a good person and was willing to work if he could give advice. He immediately said respectfully: "Thank you Eunuch Li for your advice. I will definitely do it next time." Errand done!"
Li Fa said with a smile: "Our family believes that you can handle this matter well! Because if you can't handle it, you have to dig the soil like your two brothers! There is still one month's wages, don't forget it!"
Wang Zhengguo naturally agreed without any hesitation. Later, Li Fa pointed out many things to him on the way, which benefited him a lot. And Wang Zhengguo also knew why Li Fa grabbed him as soon as he saw him and arranged for him to be directly under his hands!
Because there were only seven people coming out of the palace this time, it was not enough manpower to manage a huge salt farm. If that were the case, it would be simple. However, these seven people all wanted to make meritorious deeds and wanted to take on more tasks, so naturally they did not want to stay in a shed and recruit people.
Although this is worthy of credit, it is far inferior to the credit of running the entire salt farm. Naturally, he wanted to take time off to do other things.
Another point is that the seven of them can't hire enough scholars. The simplest reason is that all industries are prosperous here in Tianjin, and every business needs people who are literate. So readers are very popular. Even if you have not formally read a book, as long as you can write and calculate, you will make a good living, and you will naturally not easily tear up your contract and join the salt farm.
Another reason is that they are eunuchs first, so they are very rejected by scholars! If a scholar submits his application, he will inevitably be labeled as a flattering official and has no character! So now they have recruited a lot of illiterate people, but there are only a few people who are really effective at doing things! This gave Wang Zhengguo a big advantage!
Everyone came to the camp while they were talking. Wang Zhengguo looked like this camp was nothing, but in Wang Da's eyes it was unusual! Because this is basically the style of a military camp! So he was a little scared, but when he saw people in ordinary clothes coming and going inside the camp gate, he still followed Li Fa in fearfully.
As soon as they entered the gate, two people came to greet them. The people who came to greet them were a man and a woman. They were both rough-faced and thick-bodied people. Wang Zhengguo felt a little guilty! But these two people were very respectful to Li Fa, which made him feel relieved.
Li Fa pointed at these two people and said to Wang Zhengguo: "These two are husband and wife, and they are here to help us. From now on, we will take in the women and give them to Mrs. Jin, and the men to Jin Hu. All new arrivals will have their heads shaved and bathed. It turns out that all the old clothes have to be steamed in a steamer before they can be worn by them. This is for epidemic prevention!"
Jin Hu and Jin Hu were very discerning. When they saw Li Fa talking to Wang Zhengguo in a pleasant manner, they guessed that he might be Li Fa's new follower. However, they didn't talk much when Li Fa didn't introduce him. They went up to Li Fa and gave him a bow, and then said, "Eunuch Li, is this young gentleman your new clerk?"
Li Fa nodded and said, "Yes, he will be under the control of our family from now on! And our family plans to leave the recruitment to him. From now on, you can just talk to him!"
Hearing this, Jin Hu bowed to Wang Zhengguo regardless of his age. Jin Hu said: "In the future, I will have a young gentleman to take care of me! If I don't do well, please ask a young gentleman to take care of me!"
How could Wang Zhengguo dare to accept his courtesy? He hurriedly took two steps back and returned the courtesy in a panic, and then said, "I will have to ask Brother Jin for more guidance in the future!"
When Li Fa arrived at Wang Zhengguo's response, he said with a smile: "Old Jin, you guys who are prison chiefs are not merciful when it comes to eating people, but you can't delay this kid's errand!"
Hearing this, Lao Jin chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Li, I promise to help the young gentleman handle things properly!"
When Li Fa saw that he understood, he motioned for him to start arranging manpower. Jin Hu turned around to face the crowd, and his face changed color instantly! He said sternly: "You idiots have heard it clearly. In order to prevent epidemics, men and women must take separate showers after entering the house. Both men and women must shave their heads! Your dirty clothes must be steamed before you can wear them!"
Then he yelled and explained the rules of entering the camp clearly, and then he raised his hand and the golden lady standing next to her grabbed the only woman in the team and said, "You little lady, follow me! Look! If you don’t come out, you’ll still have fine skin and tender flesh after walking such a long way!”
The young lady she grabbed was young, she looked to be in her early twenties. He was shaking with fright when the golden lady grabbed him, but he still managed to stay calm and looked at the man next to him.
The man seemed to have seen it outside, and when he saw the situation today, he knew that it was impossible to go down without following the rules! At that moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Just go with me! The adults just made it clear that I just want to take a bath and shave my head!"
At this time, Jin Hu snorted and said, "That means you are lucky enough to meet Mr. Hou's boss! If I saw refugees like you during the embankment construction in previous years, I would beat them half to death first, and then they would be obedient after a few days of starvation." Who cares if you are infected with the epidemic! If you are unlucky when the time comes, it will be even more difficult to tell who you, the mother-in-law, will follow!"
As soon as he said this, the faces of the refugee couple changed, because they knew that what Jin Hu said was not a lie! Moreover, the expressions of the other refugees have not changed. It seems that this kind of thing has become commonplace!
At this time, Mrs. Jin kicked Jin Hu in the thigh and said loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about in front of Mr. Li? If you scare everyone away, who will do the work? I will let you dig the soil then. You’re exhausted!”
Jin Hu didn't get angry even after being kicked. He laughed twice and asked the refugees to follow him. Mrs. Jin took the female refugee and said, "Don't think so much. There are strict rules here. No one will dare to mess around! If anyone messes around, call me. I will report it to the Marquis and beat him to death with a stick!"
