The officials arranged things according to Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, speeding up the work and bringing idle people from surrounding prefectures to Yingtian Mansion to work.
If it's less than a hundred miles away, it's easier. Come directly and send someone to tell them.
In fact, many people in nearby places already know about the situation, and some businessmen will go there to "cheat" and give people twenty coins a day.
Generally speaking, one can be deceived once, and the person who is deceived feels that twenty coins is a lot.
When I met other people while working, I realized that I had been deceived, and I was filled with hatred.
It's just that they have no choice. Those who have signed a contract will suffer huge losses if they break the contract!
They were angry and comforted themselves. Twenty cents was quite good. When they were at home, people were rushing to do fifteen cents.
You'll know next time it won't be at this price. Find a job by yourself. Don't be angry. We won't be angry. Damn it! oops! So angry!
"I'm so exhausted!" At noon, Zhu Ping ran to the box lunch restaurant.
The children in Xiaqiu Village can't always stay at Chaoyangmen, they have to go out and do things.
Under normal circumstances, they would be in charge of the box lunch restaurant, and when Jubiqi was busy, they would also run to help record the records.
Knowing that they were coming, Zhu Ping, who was busy every day, hurried over and he also had a mission.
Zhu Ping is now in charge of general dispatching, approving books sent from various department stores every day.
Some people want goods, and a certain product obviously sells quickly, and the demand will increase after judging.
Some people require that the collected items be transported away quickly. There is no room in the warehouse to put them, and they must be delivered to the account at the same time.
In addition to Jubiqi's production, manufacturing and inventory matters, Zhu Fang is in charge of these all day long.
In fact, this is exactly what he should do. When he takes over, he will not be in a hurry and leave everything to others.
That way, when he is bored, he will have other thoughts, and at the same time, his men will reap the benefits.
Now if you don't let him take care of this, he still won't agree! He is always afraid that others will lie to him because he has the ability to handle the things he is responsible for.
There are already less than a thousand people going to the bento shop to eat packed lunches. Everyone is waiting at the place where they are working, and the people from the bento shop go to deliver the lunches with carts.
Xiaocao was always there and learned how to garnish and stir-fry vegetables, as well as doing accounting and writing.
His family has been thinking of finding him a wife, but he himself doesn't agree, so he has to work harder.
He gives the money he earns to his family every month and keeps nothing for himself.
He is good at purchasing, transporting, chopping and cooking vegetables, keeping accounts, and recording situations.
His day's wages have increased to one hundred cents, and whether there are twenty-nine days or thirty days in a month, he will be counted as thirty days.
He sends back three guan of money to his family a month, and the family does not need to pay for food, clothing, and housing.
He doesn't want to find a wife now, and it's hard for his family to make the decision for him.
As soon as I told him whose daughter was the best, he said that he would repay the favor and it would depend on what Xiaqiu Village wanted.
Now that life is getting better, his mother's body has also adjusted, and the kindness cannot be forgotten.
When Zhu Ping came over, Xiaocao was serving food to others. He could tell at a glance that the person in front of him was a new arrival. He didn't know where he came to Nanjing from.
Seeing the other person swallowing saliva while staring at the vegetables, he scooped out as much oil residue as possible from the fried cabbage and put it in.
Then he said to the other party: "Will you help me fill the tank with water later?"
The other party looked up at him: "Why?"
Xiaocao was stunned for a moment, nodded, and continued to cook. The coriander was stir-fried with pork skin. He moved his spoon skillfully, and there was not even a trace of pork skin on it.
Moreover, his spoon was not full enough, but he shook it so that there was a gap between the cowpeas and the cowpea segments.
When it was time to serve the rice, he took a pair of chopsticks and used them to swish and swish the food.
The cook looked confused, but he didn't say anything after seeing a lot of people.
Then I took another bowl of soup. In this soup, I could only see a little egg drop and chopped green onion. As for the cucumber slices, they were non-existent.
The man carefully found a place where he knew someone and sat down. When the other person looked at his dinner plate, he was stunned: "Song Xiaoliu, are you swearing?"
"No! What's wrong, Third Uncle?" Song Xiaoliu was confused.
Someone from the side poked his head over: "Yeah? What do you mean? Half of the oil residue, and then other vegetables and rice..."
"Oil residue? He served it first, and then actually asked me to help him fill the water tank with water. I paid for the meal. Phew!"
Song Xiaoliu was still very angry when he talked about this matter! Doesn’t it cost money to eat?
"There's nothing wrong with that. I gave you a lot of oil residue, and I got it back later. We don't owe each other anything."
The person who came over nodded to Song Xiaoliu's third uncle, then went back to eat by himself.
"What's wrong with Third Uncle?" Song Xiaoliu obviously didn't understand the situation.
"It's okay, wait outside to eat from now on, don't come in here. Usually those who come to eat will get extra food, but you... don't."
Song Xiaoliu's third uncle was helpless and explained: "Whether he pays or not is his business. There will be no problem with your three cents."
As soon as he finished speaking, the children came over to give them something, half a salted duck egg each. Sure enough, everyone gave it to them, except for Song Xiaoliu.
Song Xiaoliu looked at San Bo in surprise: "This..."
"There is a bond of affection and fate between people. The little guy who brings you food will always take care of the newcomers and then ask them if they are willing to help with the work.
It was his home back then! well! It's just...he came over to eat, but he wasn't full, and they didn't say anything, so they gave him extra.
After he finished eating, he asked if they had any work to do. At that time, he was filling water tanks, and he was later left behind by Xiaqiu Village. "
"Then...then...eating out for the same thing costs the same amount, but there are no extras?"
Song Xiaoliu wanted to argue, but it turned into a problem in the end.
"That's right! You can give it or not. If I give it to you, you will make a profit. If you don't give it to you, you won't lose. Your rice is loose. After you finish eating, go and add some more. He will fill it up."
Song Xiaoliu's third uncle told his nephew from the countryside that he would add a little extra to the lunch box worth three cents.
"Hey~~" Song Xiaoliu felt that he had suffered an unreasonable disaster.
"Ah! What's wrong with you?" Zhu Ping came over and was curious when he saw Song Xiaoliu's half salted duck egg.
"Shopkeeper Qin, it's like this..." The third uncle explained the process and finally said, "It's all my fault."
"Misunderstanding! I'll get you a salted duck egg. After you finish eating, go find Xiaocao to carry water."
Zhu Fang also felt that Song Xiaoliu was wronged, but this person sometimes suffered from being too fussy.
He turned around and took out a complete duck egg, slapped it in front of Song Xiaoliu, then turned to ask a young man: "Where is the inside?"
"It's upstairs in front! Do you want to take the order?" The young man pointed to the front.
"I'll go up, and I'll eat whatever the mayor eats." Zhu Ping turned around and walked over there, thumping up the stairs.
His guards were guarding downstairs, and no one followed him.
Song Xiaoliu was at a loss again. He looked at his third uncle: "Who is this?"
"I'm doing business in partnership with Xiaqiu Village. Actually... I'm to blame for what happened today. Wait for me to explain it to you properly. You just came today and forgot about it in a hurry.
But after a while, you go to help Xiaocao bring some water, eat the duck eggs quickly, and shopkeeper Qin deliberately nudges them. "
Song Xiaoliu's third uncle complained about himself and then told him what to do.
