"Herding cattle earns 1.5 work points. Gathering pig grass is a different story. The more you gather, the more work points you get. If you can take care of all the pigs in the production team by yourself, you can earn as many work points as a strong man. Most importantly, it's not that hard."
After Li Jinfeng finished speaking, Xiaobao's eyes immediately lit up.
Like cows and pigs, they only eat three meals a day. If he works harder, he can squeeze out some time to help his grandmother with work and reduce her burden.
"Sister Jinfeng, I understand. I... I will go find the captain right now." Zhang Xiaobao shouted excitedly.
"Okay, but when you talk later, be gentle and sweet-talk them. Don't be afraid. Also, Li Ailan was previously doing the job of tending the cattle, so the captain certainly won't give it to you easily. Just say you want to try it out first. You and Li Ailan can each tend three cattle. Don't ask for any work points for the trial period. If the captain is satisfied, he'll assign you another job."
Li Jinfeng said this because she was afraid that Zhao Zhongxing would not give Zhang Xiaobao this opportunity.
As long as there is an opportunity, there is a possibility of success. What's more, there is no harm in this world without comparison.
Although Li Ailan took on the job of looking after the cows in the production team, she was very lazy. She usually just tied the cows to the side of the mountain and took a nap under the shade of a tree.
As for whether the cows were full or not, she never cared.
It is not noticeable at normal times, but now is the busy farming season and there are fields to plow every day. If the cows are not well fed, they will not have the energy to work. As time goes by, the progress will be delayed a lot.
If Zhang Xiaobao stepped forward at this time and fed the cow well, the cow would work faster than usual. Given Zhao Zhongxing's personality, the work would definitely fall into Zhang Xiaobao's hands in the end.
As for Li Ailan, who cares about her?
"I understand!" Zhang Xiaobao nodded heavily.
After saying that, he was about to leave.
At this time, Li Jinfeng called him again. She took out a steamed bun from the cloth bag she carried on her back and handed it to Zhang Xiaobao: "Eat it before you go out."
Zhang Xiaobao looked at the steamed buns and his saliva started to flow again.
He subconsciously looked at his grandmother. Grandma Zhang was also surprised. She didn't expect that Li Jinfeng was willing to give things to them.
"Girl Jinfeng, you..." But in the end, she still didn't say no. She nodded at Zhang Xiaobao and let her grandson take the steamed buns.
Zhang Xiaobao didn't eat the steamed buns immediately after getting them. Instead, he divided them into three portions. After he, Li Jinfeng, and Grandma Zhang finished his portion, he went out excitedly. For a moment, only Li Jinfeng and Grandma Zhang were left in the room.
"Jinfeng girl, thank you for considering Xiaobao." Grandma Zhang's eyes were red.
She lived for such a long time, with half of her body in the coffin. She had lived good days and hard days.
When she was in the most difficult time, she was even pushed into a shit pot. She has seen many evil people in her life and knows that not everyone is kind.
But the girl in front of me is really good.
Even in this situation, she is still willing to help herself.
People say that those who make friends with you when you are rich may not necessarily be your friends, but those who stay with you and treat you the same when you are down are definitely true friends.
"Grandma, don't say that. I didn't do anything. Xiaobao is very sensible and deserves to be treated well. By the way, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? I'll make you some steamed buns for breakfast."
