Chapter 446 He Qiu
For a moment, many people who had nothing to do raised their hands.
Xiao Xuanli has been in the village for two months and has met many people and understood their personalities.
Seeing some lazy people also raised their hands, he immediately frowned.
If the boat is handed over to those people, it will probably be destroyed or even stolen within three days.
But he was worrying too much.
Song Chuman couldn't possibly choose those people.
He Qiu in the crowd raised his hand, but when he saw that Song Chuman's eyes were not on him, he felt very disappointed.
He had been helping his relatives in the city, so when Song Chuman was selecting people to build a house and farm, he was not in the village.
His relative's business was not good, so he worked as a waiter for a year but was never paid.
The family needs money everywhere, and if they don’t get any more money, their family will starve to death.
There was no other way, he could only tell his relatives that he would not help anymore and asked them to pay him the wages.
But the relative said arrogantly that he had no money and would not give him any money, so he could go wherever he wanted.
He was anxious and wanted to report to the authorities, but his relative said that he only paid 500 coins a month to hire him, which was only six taels of silver a year. The authorities would not arrest him for six taels of silver, and might even beat him with a stick.
Even if he is caught, it is not a capital crime. When he is released, he will take revenge severely and make it impossible for them to live in Qingyu Village.
He was scared. His relatives had many sons and he was very thin, so he had no way to confront them head-on. He could only go home and ask his parents for help.
But unfortunately, my parents were sick and weak, and they even had difficulty getting out of bed, so I was unable to help at all.
He wanted to find Ji Lizheng, but his parents were worried that he would be retaliated against even if he took the money, so they advised him to give up.
Although he was unwilling, he had to agree temporarily to reassure his parents.
However, he couldn't find any starfish when he went to the sea recently, and he couldn't find any seafood when he went to the sea, so he hadn't had any income for many days.
If Song Chuman could choose him, with an income of fifty cents a day, their family would not have to starve to death.
Song Chuman glanced at the people who raised their hands several times, and suddenly pointed at four people, "You, you, you, and you."
He Qiu was feeling lost when someone suddenly touched his arm. "He Jia Dalang, what are you standing there for? A-Man chose you."
He Qiu looked up suddenly and saw that Song Chuman was really looking at him.
He Qiu pointed at himself, looked around, and said in disbelief, "Aman, did you really choose me?"
Song Chuman nodded: "Yes, I will have to trouble Brother He from now on."
He Qiu was extremely excited. "Aman, it's not a big deal. Don't worry, I will definitely protect the fishing boat for you. If the fishing boat is damaged in the slightest, I will give my life as compensation."
"That's not necessary." Song Chuman pointed at three more people and said, "Are you three willing to come too?"
The three people who were pointed at all nodded their heads in agreement.
If you refuse such an easy job as guarding a fishing boat, which doesn't require any heavy work, you would be a fool.
Song Chuman smiled with satisfaction, "Alright, the four of you decide which two will guard the day and which two will guard the night. But every time you guard the night, you have to clean the fishing boat before I go out to sea, so this job is not entirely easy."
The four of them nodded at the same time: "Okay."
Zeng Changliang roared, "No! Song Chuman, I also raised my hand. Although I'm over 30, I'm just guarding and sweeping the boat. I can also work. Why don't you want me?"
