Chapter 738, prodigal son
He was very reluctant to let these students toss, worried that the good flower source would be ruined.
But if the eldest brother insists on doing this, what can he, the younger brother, do?
It's not just to do so, lest his elder brother be furious.
In fact, he also understands his elder brother's intentions. Back then, if his elder brother hadn't been secretly helped, their family would have been gone long ago.
Now that the eldest brother thinks that he has the ability, he wants to help more students live better.
So his attitude towards these students was okay, without anger or dissatisfaction.
There are a total of eight students in this group, and they are the first batch of people who came to experiment.
Ordinarily, they should go home on weekends, and many people should go home to get money and food.
But Mr. Lu said that he contacted them with a part-time job opportunity.
Although it is a bit hard, if you work hard, you can earn a week's rations without any problem.
Moreover, Mr. Lu carefully showed them the work content and remuneration, allowing them to choose freely.
So, these people automatically signed up. They are very sensible children, and they know what the family looks like very well.
After having such an opportunity, they only asked Tong this to bring the letter home, and then followed Mr. Lu.
Speaking of it, people nowadays are relatively simple, and they have never doubted whether their teacher is a liar.
Cough, well, although teachers in this era are not very valued, they are much more reliable than outsiders.
"I really didn't expect to see so many flowers in autumn. What kind of flower is this? It looks so beautiful."
A student looked at the scattered flowers in the mountain with joy on his face. Naturally, this was a female student.
There are really not many rural families who can send girls to high school these days.
This girl was able to go to school entirely because her grandfather was not partial, saying that anyone in the family who could study would be sent to school.
She happened to be the one at home who could read, so she was sent to school by her family.
But, there are many children in the family, and life is not easy. Every time I go home, I have to look at the faces of grandma and mother.
Although she understood them, she still felt uncomfortable.
Now that she has the opportunity to be self-reliant, she will not miss it.
"Okay, flowers are everywhere, let's stop looking at them and work quickly, we can't let down Teacher Lu who helped us."
Another female student also thought the flowers were beautiful, but she couldn't remember why she came here.
Their work today is not easy. They have to dig a hole every three meters.
There are also regulations on the size and depth of each pit, and the money is also calculated according to the number of pits dug.
This counts, and they are free to form groups and dig pits together.
As for the remuneration, it is completely possible to share it together after receiving the money or food.
For students who are really used to farm work, although digging a hole is tiring, it is not difficult.
It’s just that after digging for a long time, you will feel a little tired, and what’s more, if you don’t work for a period of time, you will not get used to it.
It's just that when they thought that they could exchange three catties of rice or fifty cents for digging a hole, they were full of energy and dug quickly.
Don't say that Lu Wanqing is too black-hearted, you know, Lu Qingyuan is a middle school teacher, and his monthly salary is not much.
They dug a hole for fifty cents, ten for five, and one hundred for 50!
Although it is impossible for them to dig so many in a day, as long as they are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, they can dig dozens of them in a day no matter what.
Dozens, the money or food that can be obtained is quite a lot.
These students only need a few catties of rice and a few dollars for a week to eat.
They work here for a day, maybe they can earn a month's rations, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
They were satisfied, but it made Uncle Lu very distressed.
As long as he thought of how much food and money these students would take away for digging a hole, he would feel heartbroken.
I wish I had the avatar technique to dig a hole, and dig the entire mountain as required!
It's a pity, the elder brother won't let him compete with the students for food.
So all he can do is cut the honey that can be harvested.
Then, I planted the seedlings my niece got from somewhere and planted them in the pit.
Fortunately, my niece was thoughtful at the beginning and built some water supply systems on the mountain, otherwise he would be exhausted.
It is not difficult to plant saplings, but the hard part is digging and fetching water to water the trees.
The eldest brother said that if the students feel good this time, more children will come to work next weekend.
That way, they'd have to take more stuff out.
As soon as he thought that someone would come to distribute food and money, Uncle Lu worked hard and vowed to do more.
If he does more work, others will share less.
Lu Qingyuan couldn't help laughing as he watched his younger brother turn his grief and anger into motivation.
He was not idle either, letting the students dig their own holes and make statistics, and he helped his younger brother plant trees.
He knew that his strength had grown unknowingly, and this change made him very happy.
He thought it was the result of his insistence on exercising, but he didn't know it was not.
What he didn't even know was that the strength of his children had exceeded his imagination.
Even the youngest daughter, who doesn't like to work, is much stronger than the other children.
Uncle Lu naturally didn't notice this, he just felt that his brother hadn't worked for a long time, so it was okay to work.
The two brothers cooperated, some of the students formed a team to dig a hole, and some dug a hole alone.
Every time they dig one, they will record it by themselves, and then continue to dig.
Even though the weather was getting colder, they didn't feel the coolness, instead they broke out in a thin sweat.
But they didn't care. They were so excited when they thought that they would receive money and food in the evening.
When Lu Wanxuan strolled up the mountain, she saw the students working with her father and second uncle in full swing.
She shook her head involuntarily, rolled up her sleeves and started boiling water to soak honey, which could replenish energy for them.
Anyway, honey is not an expensive thing in their house, so she simply put more.
After it was over, I added some sugar, and the eldest sister said, don't treat the people who come to work badly.
Seeing them all working hard, Lu Wanxuan felt that it made sense.
She was not a stingy person, so she really added a lot of sugar.
Although sugar is not as expensive as when she was a child, many people are still reluctant to eat it now.
After finishing the sugar water, she didn't call others to come back to drink it, and went straight up the mountain with a bucket of sugar water.
Then he greeted the students to take a break and drink some water to replenish their energy.
Did she know that among these people, some people couldn't even fill their stomachs at school.
There are also some people who only eat white rice and pickled vegetables, and are reluctant to eat vegetables because they have no money at hand.
My sister said that when you let them work without enough to eat, you have to pay attention to replenishing their energy.
Otherwise, it would be bad if they fainted or something, and they would have to be sent to the hospital, which is troublesome.
Lu Wanxuan thought, if her father hadn't opened his mouth and said something, her sister would not be willing to do this.
But since she agreed to her father, she will try to do the best and perfect it.
