After talking about the main things, Uncle Sun talked about the secondary things, which was planning the family’s land.
Today, Li Xu gave the Sun family an idea to make money: use part of the land to grow crops and the other part to grow peanuts.
After the peanuts are harvested, they are fried and taken to the city to be sold.
Since it was about making money, everyone was more enthusiastic than ever and expressed their ideas one after another.
It didn't take long for everyone to come up with a plan that seemed reasonable.
...
It is the sixth day of the first lunar month.
Captain Sun estimated that most of the relatives who were supposed to leave had left, so he called a family meeting.
In addition to the heads of each family, men between the ages of twenty and thirty also attended the meeting.
When the Sun family members heard Captain Sun explain the reason for holding this clan meeting, they instantly became excited.
Especially the young people, they were scrambling to sign up.
Since there were so many applicants, Captain Sun could only write down the names first and said that the admission list would be announced in two days.
Captain Sun had no peace for the next two days. Every day, clansmen came to look for him, and he was so annoyed that he couldn't even sleep.
After careful consideration, Captain Sun finally selected ten people whose families were the most difficult, had the largest number of people in their families, and had good personal abilities.
In fact, he originally wanted to write the name of one of his grandsons, but after thinking about it, he found that it was not appropriate to do so. The tribesmen regarded this as a great thing, and as the tribe leader, it was not easy for him to compete with them, so he gave up the idea.
When they saw the admission list he announced, some people cried with joy, while more people sighed with regret.
The next day was the tenth day of the first lunar month.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, the two brothers Li Xu arrived at their uncle's house in Sunjiatan.
Li Xu originally wanted to give those people's wages for the next year to his uncle, but after learning about their family situation from his uncle, he changed his mind temporarily, took some of the money, and gave the rest to his uncle.
Then Uncle Sun and Uncle Sun II led the three of them to Captain Sun’s house.
As soon as he entered the main room, Li Xu saw ten young men and one middle-aged man standing in the room.
Captain Sun introduced the two parties to each other, and Li Xu realized that the middle-aged man in front of him was the instructor he had found.
The other party was also a member of the Sun family. He used to be a soldier, but was later discharged for violating discipline on the battlefield.
After hearing this, Li Xu exclaimed inwardly, "Wow, this is just like Hu Bayi. Not only did he break the same rules, but even the reasons for breaking them were similar. I wonder if his family has any ancestral feng shui secrets..."
Although he had committed a serious disciplinary violation, he had made many contributions before, and his superiors pleaded for him, so the army did not punish him severely and simply dismissed him.
Those who were laid off had no jobs, so they could only return to Sunjiatan and make a living by farming.
Li Xu particularly liked this kind of affectionate and righteous person, and was extremely enthusiastic when greeting him.
As a result, he thought that Li Xu did this in the hope that he could teach those ten people well, so he directly guaranteed that he would not disappoint his expectations.
After everyone finished greeting each other, Li Xu engraved the appearance and names of these people in his mind, then took out the money in his pocket and gave it to them, saying with a smile, "I always keep my word, you don't have to worry about me going back on my word, as long as you work hard, I will never treat you unfairly;
I will give you the first month's salary first. You can use it to buy some food and meat to nourish your body. From now on, my uncle will be responsible for paying your salary. The payment date will be today every month."
When they saw the banknotes in their hands, their eyes suddenly turned red.
You have to know that ten of these eleven people were born in poor families. The instructor's family conditions are better, but not much better.
How can they not be excited when they see so much money?
Then they all expressed their loyalty to Li Xu.
Even though they stuttered and only spoke two words over and over again, Li Xu was very happy to hear them.
Because he could tell that these were the words from their hearts.
The three brothers Li Xu came here to recognize people. This recognition not only refers to themselves, but also to the ten people in front of them.
In order to deepen their impression in each other's hearts, the three of them chatted with them for more than an hour.
After they left, Li Xu and others said goodbye to Captain Sun without saying a few words.
In the next few days, Li Xu stayed at home during the day and went out to pay New Year's greetings to people at night.
In a blink of an eye, it was the 16th day of the first lunar month, the day to leave.
Early in the morning, after saying goodbye to their families, the three Li Xu brothers and Li Ju and others who were going to school came to the supply and marketing cooperative.
I took a ride to the city railway station and then took a train to Wuhan.
After sending Li Ju and the others to school, Li Xu and the other two found a hotel to stay in.
After staying in the hotel for nine days, they boarded the train to Guangzhou.
After getting off the car, they went straight to the hotel to look for Pang Dong. As soon as they met, Li Xu asked, "Pang Dong, are my cousins back yet?"
"They came back a few days ago, and they brought me some gifts, saying that some of them were for you."
Pang Dong's mouth was grinning so much that it almost reached her ears. It was obvious that she was very satisfied with the gifts.
Li Xu nodded, then asked, "Can you take a leave now and take us to your house?"
"Of course, please wait for me for a moment." After saying that, Pang Dong quickly walked out from the counter and went upstairs.
Soon she came down and led the three of them home.
The three thought the car would be covered in dust, but it turned out to be spotless.
After looking around the car, there wasn't even a scratch on it. Seeing this, Li Ping couldn't help but say, "Pang Dong, you were really careful when practicing driving. The car doesn't have a scratch at all."
