"Fourth uncle, how much does the food you eat... cost?" Du Xiaocao waited for the chief to leave, looking at the food on the table and not daring to take off his chopsticks.
Braised pork is only available here, with braised carp, minced eggplant, lard residue roasted tofu, stir-fried pig heart, fried liver tips, and pork bone radish soup.
Six dishes and one soup, the staple food is fried steamed bun slices and rice, and a bunch of pickles.
Xiaocao saw that the dish was not famous, but she thought it was good and should be expensive.
"We work for them and prepare meals for them. They were busy yesterday, so the food delivered was from Fuhua House, not as good as that from Xiaqiu Village."
Master Yu gave his nephew a piece of braised pork. It was an inch square. It was shaky when he picked it up, and it broke when he put it in the bowl.
"Fourth uncle, can I come and work?" When Xiaocao heard that he didn't want any money, he looked at the food again and was greedy.
"I'll tell the mayor later, where's your job?"
Master Yu knew that his nephew was young, tall, and capable of eating, and felt sorry for him.
"In my case, we were paid once for each job. The boss would find a job and ask us to go there. Then we would divide the money and give 30% to the boss."
Xiaocao looked at the braised pork in the bowl, swallowed and said.
There were foremen for work, not only in the Hongwu year, but also in the Tang Dynasty, and this has continued ever since.
Some people are responsible for doing the work, others are organizing the manpower, and they also have to fight with their peers and set the rules.
If Zhu Wentian heard this, he would understand very well. He was the same at that time, standing on the street looking for jobs, including laborers, bricklayers, waterproofing, shaving and whitening...
They all know each other, but they are not necessarily good friends. They may even have had more than one fight, each time with a bloody head and no call to the police.
What kind of work do we negotiate with each other to agree on the price? Someone comes to find us. The water on the wash basin in the first bathroom is broken, and the other party charges 80 yuan.
At this time, the person looking for someone went to find the second one. The second one also asked for eighty, or even one hundred, but he did not dare to ask for seventy.
Otherwise, once they find out, others will beat him.
Unless you find the first one and ask directly, can you fix it for me at 70? This is no problem, the other party nodded directly.
When I got back, people asked, how much did it cost? He said one hundred and gave me a pack of cigarettes.
However, with the development of the Internet, this situation has changed, and we have contacted each other on online platforms.
The same is obviously true for Xiaocao. He can't do it alone, but he is very strong and will give him more money when he does hard work.
"Eat!" said a craftsman next to Xiaocao.
"Oh, okay!" Xiaocao put a piece of braised pork into his mouth. His eyes widened in an instant. It was so delicious.
The lieutenant wandered to Hanhan's side and said in Hanhan's ear: "There is such a thing... What do you think the problem is?"
Zhu Wentian: "..."
He doubted Li Chang's IQ, so just tell me that I have insufficient Qi and blood, use Astragalus and Atractylodes Decoction, and ask me what's going on?
Wang Laowen made it clear last time. At the same time, two prescriptions are available and can be analyzed.
Astragalus and Atractylodes decoction are still increasing or decreasing. How can I know the specific condition of whose disease?
"I don't know." Zhu Wentian replied with two words and went to help remove the tray.
…
After noon, there were only about twenty people eating, and the village children and guards began to eat, just like the craftsmen.
The craftsmen had finished eating early and gathered together to discuss how to improve efficiency and improve the process.
If you want to eat the good food from Xiaqiu Village, you must work hard. If you don't give it such good food, they will just do it normally, not being lazy, not being slippery, and not thinking too much.
Xiaocao is also there. He has finished his work in the morning. If he goes there in the afternoon, he will have to wait for the boss to find work. He said he will find it at noon.
That has nothing to do with him. He works one job at a time, does not belong to anyone, and can come and go freely.
He eats here because he saves money. He can't get the same meal at home. Counting other meals, it's almost three cents.
Selling box lunches is a large-volume purchase and the price is low. Unlike the Fuhua Building next door, people eating box lunches cannot enter Fuhua Building.
No, you can enter Fuhua Building, and shopkeeper Xu will pour you tea first when you sit down, and then take your order.
You finish your tea and leave without ordering. Shopkeeper Xu and the waiter smile and welcome you back.
The actual situation is that we really can't afford it, so we can only drink free tea, so we simply don't go in.
If you don't work, Xiaocao should go home and work for the family. Now, wait for the mayor to finish his work and talk about helping here.
Master Yu negotiated with the others, came to the side of the liang, pulled up a stool and sat down: "Chief, my nephew is not safe when he works outside. He goes from east to west.
Can you... put it like this! Comparing strength, of all the people we can see now, no one is stronger than my nephew, you see..."
The chief stopped eating when the other party came over. He looked at him, listened to what the other party said, and shook his head. When the master was feeling uncomfortable, he said, "Everything else is easy to say. I don't agree that he is the strongest. Can he plow an acre of land in a day?" "
"Ah?" Master Yu was stunned, what do you mean? Are you shaking your head to say you disagree? Why did it end up on farmland? Are you sure that one acre of land per day is cultivated by humans?
Master Yu was troubled and smiled bitterly: "Chief, my nephew can plow the land. He can be pulled in front of him, but he can't do it even if he is exhausted one acre a day. This job..."
"My family is a fool, so your nephew is not the strongest, is he a fool?"
The chief was determined not to give up his strength, so he turned to ask Hanhan.
Zhu Wentian, who was happily eating: "..."
If you want to recruit him, recruit him. Why do you want me? I'm eating!
So he glared: "Huh? Jin, let me see."
He put down his chopsticks and walked to the construction site. There were stone slabs for laying fire paths. He grabbed one and put it on top of the other, and then he grabbed another one and put it on top.
There were three stone slabs. He grabbed both sides with his hands and struggled, and the stone slabs were lifted up by him.
He turned around twice more, squatted down, instead of bending down directly, otherwise he would hurt his spine. He placed the stone slab, clapped his hands, and returned to the chief: "Hey hey hey hey!"
The craftsmen and Xiaocao were dumbfounded. Can one person lift three pieces? Usually, two people carry it together, but if one person has to hold it together with gritted teeth, lean back and move his steps.
How can a hairless fool be so strong? If he hits someone with a big iron stick...
"Okay! Brother Hanhan is so powerful!" the little girl shouted first.
"Brother Hanhan is awesome!" the other children shouted.
The guards of the Prince's Mansion also nodded and admitted that Hanhan was indeed very strong, but it was a pity that people were stupid. If they were smarter, they would be more powerful on the battlefield.
"Hanhan, go and wash your hands quickly. Don't move things just because you say you are strong." The head of the house told Hanhan, then turned to Master Yu and asked, "How is it?"
"It is indeed strong, but my nephew is not..."
"Come on, Xiaocao! We'll start working in the afternoon. Calculating one day's wages, give...him like this 50 cents?"
The chief interrupted, "I just want you to know who is stronger, but that doesn't mean I don't want your nephew."
"About that, they charge 30% for those who work, and they only get thirty yuan." Master Yu was relieved and told the truth.
"We don't take 30%, but we pay fifty cents a day. You can carry it with you. Don't get too tired. I feel bad when my Hanhan works."
After the village chief was determined, he was worried that the other party would show off, so he worked hard and collapsed in the store in his village. Did he spend more money on medicine?
