There was no fool participating in the bidding today, and it was impossible for Duan Mingjie to hand over the good project he had just received.
It was just that the farming season was busy and there were no workers for a month. He couldn't find so many workers for a while.
Duan Mingjie just wanted them to work for him.
If they agree today, they will have to live under Duan Mingjie in the future. This is not what they want.
Several people at the dinner table had different thoughts, but Duan Mingjie could guess a lot.
"On the surface, it looks like I got more than three yuan per square meter, but you didn't see the risks I took in the middle, and the relationship I wanted to leave. These two things cost me a lot of money and energy, but you just The difference is that I will take over the project and you will complete it on schedule as required. Regardless of whether the government gives me money or not, I will give the money to you."
Qi Congsheng smiled, "Xiao Duan, how could the government not give you money?"
Duan Mingjie looked at him and said in a calm voice, "Uncle, more than half of the No. 16 Middle School has been built. You can ask the Education Bureau how much money they allocated to me? To be honest, I borrowed money to pay for the workers' wages. .”
After hearing this, everyone was doubtful.
"I know many of you don't believe what I say because you haven't done this yet and can't understand the complications involved. But when you contract my construction site, you don't need to worry about any of this."
"Furthermore, after finishing my project, it won't delay everyone from picking up other projects. Everyone is competing fairly. After getting along with me for a long time, you will know that as long as you don't play tricks on me, I will treat you with sincerity."
"As I said just now, I will do it by myself, but it will take a little longer, but I will definitely finish it within the stipulated time. The reason why I do it with everyone is that I hope to make a few friends in the capital. I don't like to eat alone. "
Duan Mingjie added, "You don't need to reply to me now. There is still more than a month before the start of work. I will wait for your news at home."
Duan Mingjie gave his home address.
No one gave Duan Mingjie a reply, they just said to go back and think about it.
Duan Mingjie was not disappointed. Even if he agreed to it now, it would not be a sure thing until the end.
On the way back, Lu Yao asked, "Do you think they will agree?"
"If I don't get picked up by other construction sites, maybe someone will be willing to pick it up, but I didn't really want to let them do it originally, but I just let it go for the future."
Now that he has decided to do this, Duan Mingjie wants to make it bigger and stronger, but this scale alone is far from enough. This is nothing more than recruiting more people.
Lu Yao understood what he meant, "Wait a minute, but I think this requires character. Some people just like to work hard on their own, and some people will choose a safer way. The latter do not have the ability to be a boss, but they are better than ordinary people. The ability must be strong, and this kind of person is the most suitable to recruit."
The two took the bus home. As soon as they got home, Lu Yao went to see if Hua had grown up.
It has been more than a week since the flower seeds were planted, and a layer of green has grown on them. Lu Yao can't tell which is grass and which is flower.
But it’s okay to grow some grass next to the flowers. Many grasses will bloom, but you can’t leave too much. The grass has strong vitality and will eat the flowers over time.
Seeing that Lu Yao would look at her every day when she came home from school, Gu Fulan came over and said with a smile, "Yao Yao, don't worry about it. When the grass grows bigger, I will be able to identify it as grass and flowers. Then I will pull out the grass." Just do it.”
Lu Yao turned around and looked at Gu Fulan with admiration, "Mom, you are so amazing."
Gu Fulan laughed loudly, "I have been an old farmer all my life. If the grass can't recognize me anymore, I will just fall into the urine pit and drown."
Lu Yao suppressed her laughter, but in the end she couldn't hold it in anymore. Her mother-in-law's words always made her laugh, so she smiled and waved her hands.
"Mom, it won't happen. It really won't happen."
Seeing her smile, Gu Fulan was also happy and said to her, "I made the pimples today. I put garlic sprouts, coriander and chili oil for you. You can add the vinegar later."
Well.
Duan Mingjie said on her behalf, "Mom, we just came back from inviting someone to dinner."
Gu Fulan looked at him expectantly, "Has the project been won?"
Duan Mingjie frowned, "I got it."
"Oh, thank God!" Gu Fulan clasped his hands together and walked around the yard several times, worshiping various gods and goddesses. "I will go and fulfill my wish tomorrow!"
Duan Mingjie pulled Gu Fulan, who had turned into a top, and said, "Mom, stop spinning, you're going to faint."
Gu Fulan stopped, feeling a little dizzy.
"Look, I just said burning incense is useful. As soon as I burn incense, you will take over the construction site."
Just as Duan Mingjie was about to retort, Lu Yao said first, "Mom must be more experienced than us. Mom, when you go to the temple from now on, you can call me and I will go with you."
Gu Fulan took Lu Yao's hand and said cheerfully, "Okay, next time we will go together."
"Yao Yao, how about you eat some more?"
Lu Yao touched her belly and said, "Mom, my belly is still full. I really can't eat."
Gu Fulan: "Then I won't eat."
The farming season is coming soon.
Duan Fuguo found Duan Mingjie and told him that the villagers wanted to go back. There was a letter from home saying that wheat harvesting would begin in another week.
Duan Mingjie: "Fourth Uncle, you go back and gather all the workers. I will have a meeting with everyone."
Duan Fuguo pursed his lips: "The workers will be gone for a month. If they don't plant good corn, they will definitely not come back. You might as well go out and find more workers instead of spending time in meetings."
Duan Mingjie smiled at him and said, "Fourth uncle, just do as I say."
After Duan Fuguo left, Duan Mingjie went to other construction sites and called the veterans Zheng Weiguo and Qin Dacheng found for him to No. 16 Middle School.
Duan Mingjie had already arrived when Song Zhijie and Wu Sanjiu arrived with everyone.
After everyone squatted down, Duan Mingjie held a small speaker and spoke loudly.
"It's busy farming time. I know that many workers have received notices from their families, asking you to go back to harvest wheat. If anyone wants to go back, you can report it to your foreman, and I will settle your wages and buy train tickets for you."
There was a buzz below, everyone said they wanted to go back.
Duan Mingjie waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop.
"If you want to go back, I will never stop you, but I will tell you something. In one week, the busy farming period will begin, and it will be postponed for one month. During the busy farming period, anyone who is willing to stay and continue to work, and has worked for twenty Five workers not only get wages, but also a hundred catties of food stamps."
After the words fell, the people below became quiet.
One hundred pounds of food stamps!
Duan Mingjie was very satisfied with their response and continued, "I know that some families come with one or two people, or even four or five people. Calculated for two people, that's still two hundred catties of food stamps. Even if you go back, you will be exhausted. , when we distribute food, we won’t be able to get so much, let alone wages.”
"Of course, no matter what you choose, I have no objection."
