Chapter 95 Acquaintance



The setting sun and the sunset glow are about to dissipate.

Wang Gangtie and six others in the yard were holding the contract, and they were all in a trance for a while.

This thin piece of paper had neat and clear words written on it. Although they clearly couldn't understand a single word, they all stared with their eyes wide open, carefully stroking and reading it.

After pressing their fingerprints and names under Lin Mo's guidance, they could no longer suppress their excitement and began to talk to each other. They said that the days of training at the Lin family during this period were too wonderful.

Although the training content was complicated for them, it was much simpler than farming. The days of eating well and having enough food at the Lin family made them more eager to work in the shop in town.

Therefore, they have been working diligently and studying hard, fearing that they will not pass the training and will not be noticed by Lin Mo.

"Boss, thank you, boss. I will work hard and will never let you down!"

"And Brother Mu, thank you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have gotten such a good job first. From now on, if you have anything to do, just let us do it."

Several people thanked Lin Mo one after another, and did not forget Su Mu. If it were not for the relationship between Su Mu and Lin Mo, it would never have been their turn when the Lin family recruited people.

After spending some time together, everyone understood the relationship between Lin Mo and Su Mu. They used to communicate less with Su Mu, but now they couldn't help but become enthusiastic towards Su Mu.

When they thought that Su Mu would be the boss's husband sooner or later and half their boss, their attitude became more attentive.

Su Mu's face was red and he felt a little reserved, but in response to the enthusiasm of these people, he smiled and cooperated.

He glanced at Lin Mo quietly, and ripples appeared in his heart.

After assigning their respective tasks, the group dispersed. Lin Mo returned to the kitchen. The wontons he made in the evening had not been cooked yet, and the fresh pork had been chopped into meat filling. He simply packed the remaining wontons into a large bowl and prepared to go to the village chief's house.

"Little Wood, I'm going to the village chief's house. Can you accompany me?"

Su Mu, who was stacking firewood in the yard, paused, stacked the chopped firewood neatly, and patted the dust off his clothes with his hands.

"I'll go with you. It's getting dark, and you're afraid of dogs. I'll save you from getting scared by them."

Lin Mo smiled knowingly, and when the person came closer, he took the other person's hand and walked towards the village chief's house.

It was already dark at this time. Lin Mo held Su Mu's hand, and with the help of the lights from each house, the two of them groped their way to the village ahead on the winding path.

This time is the busiest time of the day for the villagers, because most people in the village have dinner at this time.

The villagers don’t have the concept of midnight snacks. They eat dinner later so they can go to bed earlier and save the trouble of wasting lamps.

The two men held hands tightly, and neither spoke a word. In the quiet night, the sounds of children playing and joking could be heard from time to time in the dimly lit farmyard.

The evening breeze blew on their faces, and as they listened to the endless noise of children's voices, their hearts became closer.

Lin Mo had already been to the village chief's house and went around it through the small path as he was familiar with the place.

The two of them turned a corner and arrived there quickly. At this time, every household was busy eating dinner. Usually, no one would visit at this time. When Lin Mo arrived, the village chief and his family were gathered in the main hall for dinner.

"Sanlang is here, come quickly, come quickly, you've arrived just in time, we're eating." The village chief quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks, and cordially invited Lin Mo and Su Mu into the house. Turning back to his children, he said, "Quick, go get two more sets of bowls and chopsticks."

Lin Mo quickly waved his hand, placed the bowl on the table, and said, "Uncle Liu, we've already eaten, so don't bother me. I came here to tell you something. I opened a shop in town, mainly cooking fish. There are no fishermen in our village, so I plan to ask the villagers to help me catch fish."

Liu Da's eyes lit up, and the wrinkles on his smiling face became more obvious. In his eyes, Lin Mo was now a promising and capable man. When he heard that Lin Mo was going to lead the villagers to do something again, he grinned with joy.

"Sanlang, if you want to make arrangements, just tell your uncle. When you went to the village head to sign the contract, I knew you had great potential. You could open a shop in town and hire so many employees. You're the most capable of all the kids in our village."

Lin Mo smiled politely and continued, "I plan to dig a large fish pond over there in the wasteland. This season, the fish in the river are at their most abundant and plump, so I need to ask the villagers to help me catch fish. I'm too lazy to ask every household, so please inform the village chief for me. I will take any fish that anyone in the village catches."

The village chief happily agreed. There was nothing much in the river except fish. As long as someone wanted them, some people in the village were willing to go to the river to catch them.

"Don't worry, I'll notify you right away. There are plenty of fish, but I'm afraid you won't be able to catch so many."

In addition to the raw material problem of fish, Lin Mo also asked the village chief to find someone to go to the mountains to help find peppercorns.

If the raw materials can be obtained in the village, try to prepare them there. If they are really not available, you can only look for them in the town when the time comes.

After finishing the discussion, Lin Mo was about to leave when Liu Da stopped him. "Sanlang, there's something I almost forgot to tell you. Some of the people in the village who are helping you at your construction site don't have extra strong laborers at home, so they can't join the village in building the river embankment. How are you arranging it?"

"The village has a huge riverbank construction project. I expect my house to be completed before the autumn harvest, and the riverbank construction is also expected to be completed before the autumn harvest. So I have to trouble the village chief to find some people to help build the house."

Lin Sheng talked to him about this during dinner. Counting the number of people, there were about ten of them. Although these people were reluctant to leave, they had to do the public work even if they didn't get paid.

In order to speed up the progress, Lin Mo asked the village chief to gather more people, and the village chief readily agreed.

The next day, he sent all his son and cousin in. None of the young and middle-aged men in the family went to the village project, so he carried a hoe and went there to fill the number.

While they were talking, three people walked in from outside. They were the couple Wang Xiucailang and Su Yunqiu whom they had met before.

The three were also surprised to see Lin Mo and Su Mu, especially Wang Laoer. The moment he saw Lin Mo, the scene of being restrained and insulted that day flashed through his mind, and his eyes immediately turned red with excitement.

"So Brother Lin is here too. We had a hasty conflict that day and didn't have time to apologize to Brother Lin. Now that we've met today, I'd like to apologize to you again for my cousin's mistakes."

Wang Xiucai waved the cloud fan in his hand, walked in front of Lin Mo, and bowed slightly, looking like a gentleman.

He had a fair complexion and a slender figure, with a warm smile. He continued in a gentle and elegant manner, "I've heard a lot about Brother Lin's glorious deeds in the village these past few days. From being sick and bedridden to traveling for business, to his current wealth and prosperity, and how he never forgets to support the village, I admire him deeply."
