Chapter 253 Comparison of Chinese Cabbage Stewed Tofu and Corn Pancakes

More than a dozen workers ate in the courtyard of the thatched house, surrounded by the surrounding villagers of Daniu Village, only separated by a fence.

The villagers drooled enviously.

Many of them used to work in Dong's house when they built the house. Under the strong contrast, their hearts became more and more unbalanced.

"Li Junze's family is still generous! There are meat, chicken, and white steamed buns to eat. I'm so hungry."

"That's right! I worked for the old Dong's family before, and there was no trace of meat in his food."

"Don't mention it, Chinese cabbage stewed with tofu and corn tortillas, it's still two people, don't ask to eat more."

"By the way, does Li Junze's family still need someone?"

"."

Immediately, seven or eight young and strong men from the same village stood up voluntarily.

Everyone looked at Gu Xixi and Li Junze's family eagerly.

Hiring one more worker means paying more wages.

Originally, the big house that her family wanted to build would cost a lot of money.

But what Gu Xixi was thinking about was the issue of time.

After the Lantern Festival in the next year, most shops in Yanzhou City will open for business one after another.

Of course, her family's dental shop is a yard sale, and they can wait until the first lunar month to open the door.

But in less than two months, it is still difficult to build a three-entry mansion.

The things that were brought back from the old house of the Li family were all piled up in the current thatched house, and many of them are still outside.

There will be a lot of rain in the coming spring, so the new house should be built as soon as possible before the rainy season comes.

Gu Xixi told Li Junze all of her thoughts.

"Don't worry, leave this matter to me."

Li Junze turned around and talked with the foreman, and called the seven or eight young and strong men from the same village who wanted to work, and agreed on the wages together.

If you want to work in his house, I'm afraid you won't even think about it this year.

Several young and strong men said that it doesn't matter, as long as they get paid, they will do it.

With a few more people working, the house can be handed over earlier.

It's just that the dozen or so people invited to work from Shangyangzhuang were not very willing.

Someone comes to grab the job, which means they end up getting paid less.

Li Junze could see what they were thinking, so he called their foreman to renegotiate the wages together.

All the workers are paid more or less, but there is only one requirement, that is, to finish the work earlier without cutting corners.

The villagers watching the bustle outside have not left yet.

Seeing the generosity of Li Junze's family, he couldn't help but make comments.

"Look at the son Li Chengxiao taught, he is worthy of studying in the city, and he is different from some stingy and petty ones."

"Oh, don't mention it, as far as Dong's family is concerned, even Jun Ze's family can't keep up with half of them."

"Hush, keep your voice down, how dare you say that? Then Dong Daniu is a big celebrity in front of the county magistrate."

"What's wrong? Don't you dare to let people tell you if you dare to do it?"

"."

Dong's mother left at the door of her house, and when she heard this, she was very angry.

She reckoned that Li Junze deliberately showed off his grandeur in order to compare them to the big bulls in their family.

"A group of white-eyed wolves, taking my family's wages, and calling us stingy later?"

"If we had known this earlier, our family should have hired someone else to do the work."

Her family paid fifteen slabs a day's wages, and asked everyone to do two days' work a day.

Even the old scalpers of the landlord's house don't take such orders.

"Their family ate well on the first day. Let's see if there is a cabbage, tofu and corn pancake tomorrow. I can't see it for two days, so I have to eat pig bran."

"When the county government comes, whether the wages can be settled is another matter!"

Dong's mother screamed at the door of her house, cursing and going back to the main room.She had to urge her son Dong Daniu to eat a good meal and go to the county government office, and bring someone to arrest Li Junze's family as soon as possible, then her heart will be pure.

Zhao Xiancheng filled up the vacant hole overnight, and after returning to the mansion, left and right could hardly sleep.

Early the next morning, he hurried to the county government office in a sedan chair.

Before stepping in, the county magistrate's furious shouts could be heard from inside.

Oops!

Zhao Xiancheng's legs softened, but he still went in bravely.

It turned out that a large number of weapons were found in a restaurant in the county last night.

Possession of weapons is a felony!

If it is deliberately misinterpreted, it can be convicted of treason.

Linked to nine clans.

On the surface, this matter has little to do with Zhao Xiancheng.

But that restaurant happened to be opened by his brother-in-law Wang Shi and his friends.

Now, his friend was long gone.

The guard said that when he went to Wang's house in the morning, he found that Wang Shi had packed his things and left last night.

All of a sudden, Zhao Xiancheng became the primary suspect.

However, the county magistrate cannot directly take him to jail without conclusive evidence related to these weapons.

But Zhao Xiancheng knew that he and the county magistrate were not from the same faction, and the county magistrate had been unhappy with him, the second in command of Tong County, for a long time.

There is no guarantee that he will not fabricate some evidence out of thin air and take the opportunity to kill him.

Zhao Xiancheng's back was covered with cold sweat. He seemed to see a knife hanging above his head, which could fall down at any time and kill him!

He didn't delay at all, he was busy, using all his connections to find someone.

At noon, he casually found a small restaurant for dinner.

The sound insulation effect of this restaurant is really mediocre, and the chatter and chatter of the guests next door to the left and right can fall into Zhao Xiancheng's ears without missing a word.

Biansheng was sitting next to him on the east side, and he could recognize by his voice that they were a few servants who usually stood by his side in the county government.

"Knowing that the magistrate likes jade, I spent fifty taels of silver to find a jade cabbage. Now that the magistrate has an accident, if I give it to the magistrate, can I please him?"

"The county magistrate doesn't seem to like jade, but the county magistrate's son likes it, so you can give it to the eldest son."

"Brothers, why do you want to give gifts to the county magistrate?" The person who spoke was stupid. He didn't go to the county government office this morning, so he didn't know what happened.

"Damn, your news is too ill-informed. There was a letter last night, saying that Zhao Xiancheng's brother-in-law caused trouble, and it seems to be plotting against him! I see, Zhao Xiancheng is already a grasshopper after autumn, and he can't live. In the next year."

"This is too ridiculous!" The stupid man was shocked.

"I heard that the master has gone to the magistrate to surrender early this morning, so let's hurry up. We can't wait for Zhao Xiancheng to fall, so let's finish the game with him."

"Brother Song reminded me in time. Fortunately, I haven't prepared a gift yet. I'm going to find out what the county magistrate likes, so I have to prepare a big gift."

"Yes, Dong Daniu is on good terms with the county magistrate, why don't we treat him to a drink tonight?"

"I can see it."

"."

The conversations of several people were not small, and Zhao Xiancheng had mixed feelings in his heart.

It is said that people take tea to cool down.

He was still there, and those people concluded that his head was cold.

He could guess the identities of the people who spoke.

As for Dong Daniu, he also knew about it.

The loyal henchman of Qian County Magistrate had saved the life of Qian County Magistrate's son before he had the opportunity to work in the county government.

Dong Daniu seems to be from Daniu Village.

Zhao Xiancheng stood up suddenly, he remembered that the young couple who came to him yesterday were also from Daniu Village.
