Upon hearing this, the farmhands looked at each other in bewilderment and panicked.
They're counting on this job to earn money to support their families.
Before they could say anything, Guan Wanxin took out several stacks of money.
This is a new coin that was just issued in January, with the largest denomination being 10 yuan.
She had a stack of 1,000 yuan in her hand.
Guan Wanxin noticed their worries and sighed softly, "Everyone, I know it's not easy to find a job these days, but there's nothing I can do, our family really won't be hiring anymore."
I'm giving each of you 1,000 yuan in compensation, which should help you through at least two years of hardship, but after that, you'll have to find jobs on your own.
1000 yuan!
These long-term laborers earn 35 yuan a month.
This 1,000 yuan is equivalent to more than two years' worth of their wages.
For a moment, no one knew what to say.
They didn't want to be fired.
But they also knew that the Guan family's woman was a woman of her word; once she made a decision, she would not change it.
If it were a normal family resigning, they wouldn't receive any compensation, but Guan Wanxin actually gave them 1,000 yuan in compensation, which is already a very generous offer!
Therefore, they couldn't say a single bad word.
Finally, someone stepped forward to collect the money and thanked Guan Wanxin.
Once it happens, it will happen again.
Before long, all the farmhands stepped forward to collect their money.
After thanking Guan Wanxin and bowing, they packed their things and left.
After everyone left, Guan Wanxin went to find Guan Wenru.
At this moment, Guan Wenru was moving the valuables in the house into her space, not even sparing the pear wood bed.
Guan Wanxin came in and silently watched her.
Seeing that she had even put the teapot into her spatial storage, she couldn't help but smile. "They've already used all these things. If they're not good enough, they can just throw them away. We don't need these things."
Guan Wenru raised an eyebrow. "Grandma, I will never leave anything for them that they can take away. Don't worry, I'm just putting these teapots and teacups away; I won't let my family use them."
"Keep these things for now. We're going to the place where supplies are even scarcer when we're with the army. If we encounter anyone in need, we'll give them to them, but we absolutely cannot let the Zhang family benefit from them."
Guan Wanxin naturally knew why she hated the Zhang family. She walked over to her and patted her head. "Okay, whatever you want, do whatever you want."
Guan Wanxin went to the courtyard to keep watch and keep watch for her.
Guan Wenru continued to fill the space with things.
Zhang Dakai and Liu Shuzhen were forced to leave by Uncle Li and Aunt Wang. When Uncle Li and Aunt Wang helped them pack their things, they only took a few pieces of clothing.
Liu Shuzhen's dressing box is still in the bedroom, containing various gold, silver and other jewelry.
Guan Wenru didn't like these things, but she still put them in her space.
Although Zhang Dakai was her grandfather by blood, she didn't want to leave him any way out.
You should know that her grandmother had made arrangements in her previous life, but she was still demoted in the end because of selfish people like Zhang Dakai.
Zhang Dakai in his previous life had also sensed something was wrong.
No one knows who he got the money from, but he was able to charter a small plane. Before May arrived, Zhang Dakai fled abroad with his close associates.
Before leaving, he also took everything of value from the courtyard, including various antique vases and jade artifacts.
News of Zhang Dakai chartering a plane to go abroad spread quickly.
Zhang Dakai and others were labeled as traitors.
Everyone knows that Guan Wanxin is Zhang Dakai's first wife, and Guan Yuanxiu is Zhang Dakai's biological son.
Therefore, some people questioned the Guan family's lack of ideological awareness, saying that they were afraid the Guan family would also flee the country like Zhang Dakai.
They raided the Guan family's property not long after.
The Guan family members were sent to the countryside.
In this life, Guan Wenru must never allow Zhang Dakai and the others to have the opportunity to go abroad.
We can't let them drag the Guan family down again!
...
After packing up the things in the courtyard, Guan Wanxin and Guan Wenru went to the textile factory.
Guan Wenru bought a lot of dark-colored cotton fabric.
Before she was reborn, she stocked up on a lot of daily necessities in her space, including various down jackets, cotton-padded clothes, quilts and so on.
However, the style of clothes decades later is different from now, so she can't just take them out and wear them directly. Therefore, she has to sew them again using modern cotton fabric.
After buying the fabric, the grandfather and grandson went to the tailor's house.
As soon as Zhao the tailor saw the two of them, her eyes immediately crinkled with laughter. "Grandma, Miss, why did you come all this way in person?"
In the past, whenever the Guan family needed clothes made, they would call him to come to their door.
You can also get an extra errand fee for visiting their home.
The delivery fee the Guan family gave him was enough to cover the cost of making several pieces of clothing, so he hoped the Guan family would let him come to their home to take his measurements and pick up the fabric.
Guan Wanxin and Guan Wenru didn't know what he was thinking. At this moment, the grandmother and granddaughter handed him the cloth in their hands.
Seeing the four bolts of gray and brown cotton cloth, Zhao the tailor asked with a puzzled look, "Grandma, are you making... bedding?"
Guan Wanxin smiled, "You can even make bedding for people?"
"I haven't done that before, but I can do it if you need it."
Guan Wanxin shook her head, "It's not about making bedding. We want you to make a few pieces of clothing. Make both of these gray pieces of cloth into cotton trousers. I'll have Uncle Li send the cotton over later."
As for these two bolts of brown fabric, make them into the simplest style of shirts. You have the sizes for the whole family here, and could you also make two pairs of cotton trousers for each of us? As for the shirts, I'm in a hurry; could you make them within five days?
After hearing what she said, Zhao the tailor was stunned for a moment.
