When they were almost at the village, Lin Yizhen took out a bag of brown rice and a bag of sweet potatoes from her space. She also took out ten kilograms of pork, some potatoes, and cabbage.
The food is used to cook for the workers.
Lin Yizhen didn't leave much food with Ahuapo, and it was definitely not enough for the workers to eat.
She now took the food back and pretended that she had bought it from the town.
After returning to the village, Lin Yizhen transported the grain directly to the homestead.
At this time, the team leader was directing the recruited people to weed the homestead and prepare to dig the foundation when he saw Lin Yizhen coming back.
He quickly came over and asked, "Are you back? Did you buy a bicycle? Did you buy the bricks?"
"Hello, Captain! I just bought a bicycle today, it will be more convenient for me to go to town.
Bricks, tiles and other things were all bought. The people from the kiln factory said they would deliver them after dinner.
This is the food and vegetables I bought in town today. I guess I won't have time to cook it for lunch. Let these uncles go home and eat!
I'd like to ask a few people to help with the cooking this afternoon. You can decide the wages, uncle." Lin Yizhen said to the team leader after unloading the food from the bicycle.
"That's good. We'll clean up this place and put in the bricks and tiles later."
Li Tiejun didn't expect that Lin Yizhen really bought the bricks and tiles back, and he didn't know how she bought them?
Li Tiejun was very happy that Lin Yizhen trusted him so much.
But he still talked to Lin Yizhen about the salary issue. Even if someone trusts you, you can't really make the decision for them without saying anything.
Because Lin Yizhen's house is built with bricks and tiles, the division of labor needs to be clearer.
There are two types of workers: skilled workers and laborers. Skilled workers require skills and their wages are set at 50 cents a day. Laborers are just odd jobs and do not require any skills.
But the work was not easy and there was a lot of things to do, so the team leader set the wage at 40 cents a day.
As for the women who cook, their wages are set at 30 cents a day.
Those who come here to work will be provided with a lunch every day.
When the team leader explained these conditions, the villagers were excited. They had never thought that there would be jobs right next to their homes.
Not only is the salary so high, but a meal is also provided. Where can you find such a good thing?
Therefore, many people in the village signed up, and even many women rushed to sign up to be laborers.
After all, there are not many skilled workers in the entire Lizhuang Village who can build brick and tile houses.
It’s different for laborers. Anyone with strength can do it. How can they not fight for it?
However, the team leader doesn't care whether these people are willing to fight for the job or not. He only recruits those who are quick at work and can endure hardships.
The captain asked the rest of the people to go back and wait for news.
There are so many people in the village, he can't recruit all the young and middle-aged people, there is still work to be done in the fields!
Moreover, these people have to be paid after they are hired.
We have recruited too many people. What if Lin Zhiqing is unhappy?
After much deliberation, the team leader decided to recruit all five skilled builders in the village. He also recruited eight unskilled laborers, and if the number was insufficient, he could always hire more.
As for the people who cook, there are three people in total, including his own wife.
Lin Yizhen nodded after hearing what the captain said. She had indeed made the right choice. If she had done these things on her own, she would never have thought of these things.
Now the captain has helped her recruit and score everything, so she just needs to pay the money.
When Li Tiejun saw Lin Yizhen nod, he knew that she had no objection to this, and he felt relieved.
Although Lin Zhiqing seemed easy to talk to, the aura she exuded, whether intentionally or unintentionally, made Li Tiejun dare not underestimate her.
Knowing that Lin Yizhen had no objection, Li Tiejun said goodbye to her and went about his own business.
Although he recruited only hardworking people from the village, he was still worried and had to watch over them personally.
When Lin Yizhen saw the team leader leave, she handed the food to Aunt Zhuang and left too.
When I returned to Ahuapo's house, she was cooking.
Lin Yizhen pushed the bicycle into the yard and parked it, then went to the kitchen to help light the fire.
Ahua Po was used to Lin Yizhen's behavior and continued to busy herself with her own things.
After the meal was ready, Lin Yizhen and Ahuapo ate together.
After dinner, Lin Yizhen told Ahua Po that she was going to build a house in the village.
After hearing this, Ahuapo was stunned for a moment, then nodded nonchalantly and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll refund the rent to you when you stop renting."
Lin Yizhen shook her head and said, "We have just selected the site for the homestead, and it will take a long time before it is completed.
I guess I’ll have to pay another month’s rent!”
Ahuapo looked at her without saying anything and continued to clean up the dishes.
Lin Yizhen followed him to the well to wash the dishes, and then fetched water to fill the kitchen water tank.
Then, I went back to the room and rested.
After running outside all morning today, Lin Yizhen was a little tired.
She planned to let Xianghe give her a massage, take a bath and take a nap before getting up.
In the evening, I have to deliver meals to the grandparents in the cowshed, and go to the town to deliver goods to Director Kang.
If she doesn’t rest, Lin Yizhen is afraid that she will be tired at night.
At night, after Ahua Po went to bed, Lin Yizhen took the food prepared by the imperial kitchen and went out.
She carefully avoided the villagers and came to the cowshed. The dozen or so people who had been waiting in the house were very happy to see Lin Yizhen coming.
They were happy not because Lin Yizhen often gave them things.
What I like is that Lin Yizhen did not treat them as bad guys, but treated them as ordinary people sincerely.
