Chapter 323

Brother Cheng nodded his head and said, "Yeah~ I'm going to practice calligraphy with Brother Tongsheng tomorrow."

When Village Chief He heard this, he was really envious, and said to Gu Dashan: "Dashan, you are a lucky person. Not only can your daughter make money, but your two sons are also able to study. Those students in my family are Jinsheng. If you can calm down and read, you can’t do the other two.”

He wanted to curry favor with the Gu family, and often asked his two grandsons who lived at home to play with Brother Ang and Brother Cheng, but Jin Sheng was a nerd and couldn't get along with Gu Jin'an.

Tongsheng is an unrestrained person, he goes up and down the river and climbs trees all day long, but Cheng Geer is a good boy, and every time Tongsheng comes to see Cheng Geer, Cheng Geer will play with him and write, which makes Tongsheng bored. Well, he couldn't come to Gu's house without beating him with a cane.

Gu Jinli looked at Village Chief He's depressed and helpless look, then turned to look at Brother Cheng, the little guy winked at her secretly, looking cute.

Gu Jinli smiled, this little guy is getting smarter and smarter, no wonder, living in the same room with Gu Jinan, and being taught by Gu Jinan hand in hand, it's hard to think whether he's smart or not.

Village head He knew the situation and nature of each He family, and it was not the first time he had found someone to work for Gu's workshop, so he quickly picked out six people and brought them to Gu's workshop the next day.

"This is the daughter-in-law of He Tufang's family, this is the daughter-in-law of He Changshu's family, this is the daughter-in-law of He Dayuan's family, and this is the fourth daughter of He Dalian's family. She is fourteen this year." Village head He introduced to Gu Jinli the Finally, he pointed to the two young women and said, "These are the two daughter-in-laws of He Shiliu's family."

The two daughters-in-law of He Shiliu's family hurried forward and said to Gu Jinli, "Hi, little boss, don't worry, we will work hard and not be lazy."

Yesterday, after the village chief told about the recruitment of Gu's workshop and the special reservation of two places for their family, the whole family was very excited.

Father-in-law said with emotion: "Two months ago, some people in the village said that it was a waste of money for me to give generous gifts to Gu's workshop. It's a hot face and a cold ass, how is it now? Those who laugh at me, can two people in the family work in the workshop?"

"The Gu family is a loving family, and everyone is looking at us."

Finally, after discussing with the mother-in-law, the father-in-law decided to let the two of them work in the workshop, and told them: "When you go to the workshop, you must work hard, don't talk too much, don't look around, and obey the rules. Don't be greedy, I would rather earn less Count silver, and don't worry about the one or two halves when weighing spices."

The two of them naturally agreed, what they want is a stable job, and they won't lose such a good job because they are greedy for petty gain.

Gu Jinli looked at the six people who had been sent here. All six of them were well-groomed, their clothes were clean, and their hair was neatly combed. When she looked at them, two women didn't dare to look at her. It's a shy look.

"Stretch out your hand," Gu Jinli said.

The six of them stretched out their hands in a hurry.

Gu Jinli saw that their hands were clean, their nails were clipped, they were fairly smooth, and there was nothing dirty in them.

Gu Jinli nodded in satisfaction: "If you want to work in our workshop, you must not have bad intentions. If there is a problem with the seasoning and spices in the workshop, all the workers will have to sit together. If you are willing, we will sign a contract."

People in the village have long known the rules of signing a contract to work in Gu's workshop, and sitting together in an accident. At first, they thought the rules were too strict, but now they think it doesn't matter. It is really too profitable to grind spices.

Those who work in Gu's workshops get at least five taels of silver at the end of the month. For example, Mo Qinzi's family gets 12 taels a month because both mother and daughter work in the workshop. salary.

God, 12 taels, so much money, not to mention asking them to sign a well-behaved contract, even asking them to sign a contract of selling themselves.

"Happy, happy, little boss, we know the rules, let's sign the contract quickly." He Zhou, the second daughter-in-law of He Shiliu, said impatiently, wishing to sign a contract and work immediately.

Since it was the first day to work in the workshop, the family members of the six people followed and were waiting outside the workshop.

When He Manzi heard his wife's words, he quickly glared at He Zhou, fearing that she would be too unruly and Gu's workshop would not want her.

Seeing his younger brother's anxious appearance, He Gaozi smiled and said, "Second brother, don't worry, the young master is open-minded, and he likes people with a quick temper like the second younger brother and sister."

He Manzi smiled wryly: "I'm afraid that she will mess up the matter and bring trouble to our family."

In the workshop, Gu Jinli took out the contract that had been written long ago, filled in their names, and showed it to Village Chief He.

After the village head looked at it, he nodded and said it was okay, and several people pressed their fingerprints on it, and the contract was signed, and the six became members of the workshop.

The people from the Liu family watched outside, their hearts dropped.

Gu Jinli withdrew the six contracts and said to the six, "Come with me, and I will ask Mo Chunyue to teach you how to grind spices."

"Hey." The six happily followed Gu Jinli into the main room of the workshop. After seeing the tools in the main room, they were all amazed.

Why do you need so many people to grind the spices? Not only stone pound, but also medicine rollers for medicine shops, and more than a dozen fine sieves.

Gu Jinli said to Mo Chunyue: "You are responsible for teaching them, and then tell them about other rules in the workshop."

"Yes." Mo Chunyue replied, and first told the six people the working hours of the workshop, and the price of grinding each spice, and then began to teach them how to grind spices: "Our workshop has limited tools, such as medicine Precious tools like rollers must be used in turn and cannot be robbed."

"Grinding spices is a meticulous job. It requires patience. It must be ground very finely. After grinding once, it must be sieved. After sieving, grind again, and sieve again..."

The six listened carefully, and no one felt impatient.

After Gu Jinli watched for a while, he went home and helped the third grandma prepare the ceremony.

Today is the third day of May, and the Dragon Boat Festival is two days away. When Gu Jinan came home last night, he said that there is a dragon boat race in the county, and Shang Xiucai’s family will go to the county town to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival with Jiang’s family tomorrow and watch the dragon boat race. The family took Jieli to Jiang's house.

The third grandma and the others couldn't wish more, and now they are packing up the ceremony at home, and they have to send it to Shang's house at noon.

When Gu Jinli returned home, Third Grandma, Cui Shi, Chu Shi, Aunt Tian, ​​and Gu Daya were packing up the things sent by several families in the main room.

Gu Jinli was really taken aback when he looked at the whole room full of things, good guy, not only did he have five live chickens, five baskets of eggs, one bag of glutinous rice, two baskets of dried tofu, two baskets of fried tofu, and beside it was a a jar.

The jar was full of aromas, including stewed fish pieces, stewed dried beans, stewed beef and mutton, stewed pig's trotters, five roast ducks, and two cans of duck fat.

Gu Jinli sniffed the smell that filled the room: "All we send are lo mei."

The third grandma said: "Our family has only a few things that can be sold."
