Gu Qi, she just wants to farm

Chapter 357 Mesh Local Area Farming Mode Five

One year, three years, five years?
Three years is indeed a bit longer, but the land that farmers don't serve other people's land also serves their own land, and if it grows longer, it will grow longer. As long as they can survive the days ahead, it is always a hope.Besides, farm laborers are free anyway, so it's better to sell themselves as slaves.

"Master Qi, don't worry, the little old man will check this for you, and I promise to pick some capable and honest people for you to go there." Village head Li thought for a while and asked hesitantly: "How will the wages be settled?"

"No wages."

"What?" Xu Dongfu was taken aback.

Gu Qi smiled and said: "There is no salary, but as long as the contract is signed, I will pay for the rations of two meals a day. In addition, the hired farmers are not only responsible for taking care of the stipulated responsibility areas, but if they can help dig If there is no water canal, there will be an extra meal every day."

Xu Dongfu didn't listen to the matter of digging the canal, he only heard that two rations a day were guaranteed, and he could exchange another dinner for another meal if he helped out.

When you go out to work for others, there is no reason not to help your boss. It is nothing more than a little more effort. As long as you don’t go far or leave your hometown, it’s nothing to do something near the village.

So, isn't that enough to eat three meals a day?

Xu Dongfu was in a daze. In the past two years, if anyone's family could actually eat two meals a day, the news would make the whole village's eyes turn green.

Even in his family, the serious ones only ate one meal a day, and sometimes the little ones in the family were so hungry that they couldn't take it anymore, and they didn't dare to give more than some dried sweet potatoes to fill their stomachs.

The ration of three meals a day is more real than wages.

Not to mention others, Xu Dongfu himself was moved, and Xu Dongfu's two sons who were sitting on the side, who dared not speak just now, looked at each other and exhaled a little harder.

The head of the Xu family blushed, and asked: "Master Qi, do you think my second brother and I can do well? Both of us brothers are good at working in the fields, we are strong and not picky."

"That's right, Master Qi. Our brothers don't pick jobs, and are willing to do anything." The Xu family's elder/second couldn't care less about saving face, so he hurriedly got up and followed suit.

Xu Dongfu felt that the two sons were a bit ashamed and wanted to stop them, but when he thought about the three full meals a day, he couldn't open his mouth again.

The two sons are already married, and the younger one is waiting to eat. The elders are doing better. The second daughter-in-law survived the illness last year, so she left a child who is a little older and cannot eat well all day long. long head.

In fact, apart from my two sons, myself and my wife are still in good health. If Young Master Qi is short of manpower, I can take over, no worse than the young people in the village.

It's just that Xu Dongfu thought about it for a while, but he didn't have the nerve to say it.
-
Gu Qi raised his hand and poured wine for the two sons of the Xu family: "If the two brothers are willing, I will naturally ask for it."

"Really." The two brothers of the Xu family held their wine bowls tightly.

"Of course, if the two of you have nothing else to do, you can sign the contract with Jiang Ping within two days."

The survey is not over yet, so you need to wait for the location of the network block map to be collected and the number assigned before you can sign a contract with the farmer for the responsible field.

"Master Qi, I don't know what to say, my little old man. I would like to offer you a toast. Thank you, Young Master Qi, for taking care of these two unworthy boys." Xu Dongfu stood up and toasted Gu Qi.

"Mr. Xu is too polite. The two brothers are doing things according to their own abilities, not taking care of them." Gu Qi picked up the drink and touched Xu Dongfu:
"On the contrary, I really need Village Chief Xu's help."

"Master Qi, please tell me."

"The first thing is to recruit farmers. The residents in the village are not familiar with the people under my command. I need the help of village chief Xu to check."

Gu Qi originally asked Shunzi to arrange an additional manpower to recruit workers, but now that the village head of Xiahetang Village is taking the lead, this matter is naturally easier.

"It's natural." Xu Dongfu agreed without thinking too much.

It was rare for someone in the village to recruit workers, so he naturally had to help in the selection of candidates. If lazy gags were allowed to interfere, when the reputation of Xiahetang Village was ruined, no one would dare to find other people in the village to work in the future.

"The second is what I said earlier. I want Village Chief Xu to help me rent a few houses so that my brothers can have a place to stay sheltered from the wind and rain and fire."

"It's not difficult. There are many vacant houses in the east and north of the village. I'll take you to have a look later and pick some sturdy ones."

Most of the original occupants of those vacant old houses escaped. In the past few years, no one came back to claim them, so they were confiscated as the public property of the village.

By renting out these houses, Xu Dongfu can be the master alone. As for the rented money, some of the money will be withheld and reserved for the village to build ancestral halls, and the rest will be sent to the old families of several clans, and no one will gossip.

"One last thing I have to trouble Village Chief Xu to help my brothers find some women who can cook."

Just as Xu Dongfu was about to agree, the eldest of the Xu family couldn't help but said: "Master Qi, my wife can cook. My wife is good at cooking."

"Shut up." Xu Dongfu's ears turned red with anger, why did he have such two things that he couldn't hold his breath.

It is rare for the village to have a job to recruit workers. With such a vast wasteland, there are so many hired farmers, and the people in the village will not say anything if they are filled with two places of their own.But if even the place of cook is taken by his eldest daughter-in-law, the people in the village don't know what to say about him as the village chief.

The boss of the Xu family was so trained that he didn't dare to speak again, but he still couldn't help looking at Gu Qi expectantly.

Gu Qi chuckled and said, "Except for the brothers under my command, only the rations of the farm laborers have to be made by the cook. One person is not enough, at least four or five people are needed."

"So much?" Xu Dongfu was a little moved when he heard the words.

Four or five cooks, that's a lot. With so many places, it's not a problem for the old family's daughter-in-law to come in and help.

"Father!" The eldest of the Xu family looked anxiously at Xu Dongfu.

Xu Dongfu panicked with embarrassment, but he still couldn't help asking Gu Qi with a cheeky face: "Master Qi, look."

"At that time, I will trouble my wife to help take care of the kitchen."

It was just a matter of favor and favor, and Xu Dongfu had prestige in Xiahetang Village, so he asked the Xu family's eldest daughter-in-law to take care of the kitchen, and he was not afraid of other women in the village making trouble.

This is not to say that Gu Qiduo believes in the character and family tradition of the Xu family, but since Xu Dongfu is the head of a village, he naturally has more worries about doing things than ordinary villagers, and it is not worthwhile for a little greedy little Mo to put his family's reputation on the line. go in.

Furthermore, the first time Xu Dongfu saw him was in the government office of the county government, where he was summoned by Liu Shouzheng. Using Liu Shouzheng's name, as long as Xu Dongfu was not stupid, he would not do things that would harm others or benefit himself.

Of course, there is another point. In terms of management costs, managing one person is much easier than managing a group of people.
