Chapter 264: Hiring People to Open Up the Wasteland
When it was time to go to work in the afternoon, Yueyi came with ten people. Azhang and Agui took a look at Yueyi and felt that he was somewhat familiar.
However, Yue Fuli introduced to them that these were people she invited from outside.
When they heard they were hired from outside, the two brothers didn't think much of it. With a dozen more men working together, Yue Fuli and the other three women felt a lot more relaxed.
Since all the work was done by men, Yue Fuli asked Sanniang and Xiuwan to go back and cook some mung bean soup to help everyone cool down.
The two families of the second branch were also clearing the land. Seeing that Yue Fuli and the other three women did very little work in the morning, Wu felt inexplicably proud.
But who knew that in the afternoon, Yue Fuli invited more than a dozen people over and acted like a big lady, which made her very unhappy.
After working for a while, she threw her tools to the ground and said to Yue Zhenhe who was busy beside her, "You are really useless. Look at others. They hired so many people to open up the wasteland at once."
"If you have money, you can hire someone." Yue Zhenhe retorted without even looking up. Didn't he know how hard it was to open up wasteland? Didn't he know that it was worth paying someone to do the work? But the problem was, everyone in the village was busy with their own work, so they couldn't hire anyone even if they wanted to.
As for hiring people from outside like Yue Fuli did, they don’t know anyone.
Besides, he also wanted to save some money and wait for Yue Fuli to start a business so that he could invest some money.
Otherwise, if they had no money, they would not even be able to drink soup when Yue Fuli was eating meat.
"You?" Mrs. Wu was very angry and walked straight up to Yue Zhenhe and started arguing with him.
Yue Zhenhe was a little annoyed. He gave Wu a cold look and said, "If you can do it, do it. If not, get out of here and stop whining and annoying me."
"Hmph, that's what you said. If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. Do you think I'm keen on doing this kind of work?" Mrs. Wu snorted coldly and left without even looking back, without even taking her tools.
Yue Zhenhe watched Wu's back as she left, his eyes darkening. He turned to look at his third brother and his wife, who were not far away, feeling a little envious.
If he had known Wu was such a person, he would never have married her. He was also young and naive, and when he saw Wu's beauty, he fell in love with her.
Yue Zhenhe's regret was unknown to Yue Fuli, as she was teaching her two younger brothers how to do things.
A Zhang and A Gui were very good-tempered, but they just couldn't learn. When they finally did, their hands started to hurt after just a short while. When they lifted their hands, they saw blisters forming.
Their hands hurt, and they felt a little wronged, and they didn't want to work anymore. But when they looked up, they found that their sister's hands also had blisters. They were men who couldn't bear this kind of pain, but their sister didn't even frown.
My sister can endure the pain and work, so why can’t they?
Thinking of this, the grievance in my heart quickly dissipated, and then I started working silently.
Yue Fuli saw the two men working despite the pain in their hands, and a smile appeared on his face. In fact, they could not work, but Yue Fuli felt that since they had come here and became farmers, the two brothers could no longer be playboys. They did not need to be proficient in farming, but they had to have a basic understanding of it.
With help, the work went much faster. In just one afternoon, two mu of land was cleared.
When they finished work in the afternoon, Yue Zhenhe and Yue Zhenjiang went straight to Yue Fuli and asked, "Ali, where did you hire this person? He works very efficiently."
