Chapter 12 Recruitment

The merchants are all tenants who depend on the Xu family. It is more convenient to use them to work, which can bring them extra income and keep confidential work relatively easy.

"Erlang wanted to open a workshop, so that the farmers would have extra items. As long as they did not delay farming, they would be willing. However, according to his opinion, the farmers would be even more happy to exchange wages for food."

After Xu An finished speaking, he looked at Xu Qilin and waited for Xiao Erlang to speak.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle An." Xu Qilin praised first before saying with a smile: "Since the farmers are willing, start tomorrow and recruit ten to try to do the work. Uncle An just said that there are blacksmiths in the village, which is better, so it will save you from going out to invite them. I will also call them tomorrow and ask him to create some application items."

After pausing, Xu Qilin continued, "I have to work for Uncle An, and I will buy some food tomorrow so that I can pay my wages."

Xu An nodded and said, although Erlang is young, he is very kind and considerate. He called himself "Uncle Quan". How great would it be to praise and value it.

When Erlang said that he would exchange wages for food, he accepted it, which was also a kind of trust.

Xu Qilin discussed the specific details of recruitment with Xu An again, and after confirming it, Xu An left.

In fact, the success of recruitment was not beyond Xu Qilin's expectations.

First of all, there are few fields and are not fertile, the cultivation technology is backward, the crop varieties are monotonous, and the yield is pitifully small. It is not easy for farmers to rely on these acres of fields to eat and wear warm clothes.

Secondly, the ability to resist natural disasters was low at that time. God took care of it. It was okay to have good weather, but when it came to drought, flood, insects, etc., it would be a bad harvest and hunger.

Therefore, without delaying farming, the people are certainly willing to have more income and guarantees.

The merchants don’t want copper coins, but they are more willing to ask for food as a reward, which is in line with the words “If you have food in your hands, you won’t panic in your heart”.

It was dark late in summer. After dinner, Xu Qilin walked around the house and became familiar with the terrain.

My family accompanied him to turn left and right, and gave instructions. This is the main hall, this is the study, this is the bedroom...

It's so big, not just big, it's a pity not to clean up a resort villa or villa.

Xu Qilin sighed and was also ecstatic. This farmhouse surrounded by mountains and rivers is great. As long as the money is generous enough, it is elegant and beautiful, and it is not difficult to be pleasing to the eye.

Money, where is the money!

Xu Qilin felt that his desire for this vulgar thing became more and more enthusiastic. He returned to the room and planned it again, and did not go to bed until very late.

The red light shone on the fields and the wilderness woke up.

The unknown birds are singing in a swaying voice, facing the new dawn, the pink clouds are unrestrained to the four sides, making people's hearts seem to be filled with a sublime feeling.

Hehe, hehe...

Xu Qilin was bare-armed, leaning down and sweating flowed.

One hundred push-ups and squats are exercise plans set by Xu Qilin for himself, and he insists on it every day.

Under the traditional education system of previous lives, parents hoped that their children would become successful, and Xu Qilin also had their own interests and hobbies. From elementary school to university, they participated in various specialty classes.

The literary and artistic ones include erhu, art and calligraphy, and physical exercise ones include Taekwondo. When I arrived at university, I also joined the judo club, thinking about whether I could have the opportunity to have close contact with girls.

Moreover, Xu Qilin was not a calm guy in his previous life. He was young and had a strong spirit. He didn't know how to speak with others outside. He had never experienced it. He had even opened a bottle of wine and had six stitches on his head!

Huh! Xu Qilin breathed a long sigh and finished practicing.

Wiping the sweat dry, Xu Qilin clenched his fists and bent his arms. Although he did not have the muscles that were particularly proud and relieved, he had obviously made progress.

In the future, let’s not talk about the refreshing things of traveling around the world and upholding justice. If you can defend yourself, or have a hero to save the beauty, you won’t be in vain to persevere!

It is said that the Tang people are cruel. Xu Qilin has never seen them, but he has heard of them. Besides, if you don’t develop a few abdominal muscles, how can you make the beauty scream and get angry in the future? He looks like a little chicken, and he feels embarrassed to go out.

After washing and dressing, Xu Qilin left the bedroom and saw Xu An leading two farmers over, one of whom was yesterday's "wild" girl.

"Erlang, this is Sun Asi, the carpenter in the village, and his maid." Xu An finished giving a gift and introduced Xu Qilin: "Yesterday Erlang bought wild vegetables, and he thought it was inappropriate, so he came to pay back the money."

Sun Asi looks in his forties, and he is actually younger. He has a tall figure, a light dark skin, thick eyebrows and beard, a rough figure and a real personality.

After giving Xu Qilin a gift, Sun Asi said, "The girl is ignorant. She will take the wild vegetables dug in the field. She will try it out and take them. She will not dare to sell them to the head of the family. This money is——" He stretched out his big hand and handed them over two coins.

Xu Qilin waved his hand and smiled and said, "There is no reason. It's not that you want to sell it, but I have to buy it. Although it's wild vegetables, how can I tell you about it if you take your things for free and let outsiders say it?"

Xu An nodded and said, "That's what I told him, it's not about whether to sell or not, but about taking into account the reputation of the head of the family."

Sun Asi reached out his hands in the air, his face changed, and he didn't know what to do.

Xu Qilin saw the little girl holding a basket with wild vegetables dug in the morning and dew on it, which was even more watery than yesterday.

The little girl was so aware that she quickly put the basket on the ground, saluted Xu Qilin, and said, "I dug it up early and gave it to the head of the family to try it out."

"Okay, okay." Xu Qilin smiled and nodded, still took out two copper coins, and put them in Sun Asi's hand, "I have to stay here for a few days. You will give you a basket every day from now on. That's it, fresh ones with dew."

Sun Asi looked at the copper coins in his hand and opened his mouth, not knowing whether he should accept them.

Xu An pushed Sun Asi's hand back and said, "The head of the family gave the order, you will do as you wish."

"Thank you, thank you, the head of the family." Sun Asi said thank you in a stutter.

Xu Qilin waved his hand and asked, "You are a carpenter, and your skills are acceptable, right?"

Before Sun Asi could answer, the little girl had already said: "My father is the best craftsman in the village, and he is also a famous good carpenter in the surrounding villages."

Haha, my daughter is proud of her father, and she is really a caring little cotton jacket!

Xu Qilin smiled and nodded, saying, "If you don't have any work, come over after dinner. I'll get a few items."

Sun Asi nodded quickly and agreed, not even asking about his salary.

"What about wages?" Xu Qilin hesitated for a moment and turned to Xu An.
