Yo, grandpa is here

Chapter 294 Party A's father can't commit crimes
To provide charcoal for the winter to a village for no reason, and even want to make a profit?

In the eyes of Brother Hu Laoxi, this is an impossible task.

"Although Yuanjia Village is not a big village, there are more than 40 households. How much manpower does our village need to provide charcoal to so many people?" Jiang Laosan asked, and now he also feels that he is from Dayu.

"Manpower is definitely indispensable, but we don't need it." Buli gave an idea.

"First of all, it is necessary to make it clear that this charcoal is not given to them for free. To promote Mi En, fight Mi Qiu, and provide benefits to people for no reason, they may be appreciated in a short period of time, but after a long time, it will make those people take it for granted. .”

Shi charcoal was originally one of the three agreements between Qingqing and Yuan Chengyi.

But what would the rest of Yuanjiacun think?
They will think that this is a charity from the generous to the poor. Looking at ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, once reaching out becomes a habit, once you stop giving, what you get will be double the resentment.

This year the charcoal was given for free, but next year it will not be given, and the two villages will have to feud. If there is another cold winter in the future, and people in Yuanjia Village freeze to death, they will think that these people were killed by Dayu.

Dayu has Qingqing and Buli in charge, so they are not afraid of them, but the villagers are likely to vent their hatred on Yuan Chengyi who provoked this incident.

Although it sounds unbelievable, this is the dark side of human nature.

It is absolutely impossible for Buli to think of this in advance and to make him free.

Qingqing had also led a team to do many rural reconstruction projects in the past, and she very much agreed with the idea of ​​not leaving the fee, and motioned him to continue.

"Yuan Chengyi said that 7 or 8 scales of charcoal are needed for the winter. She is a conservative estimate. That is to say, a family only needs so much when it is the coldest time. We will provide more. Ten scales per household is enough for them to survive the winter comfortably. The price is 20 yuan per scale.”

After Buli finished speaking, Qingqing nodded in satisfaction again.

If every partner B who cooperates has such a powerful ability to control the field, her hair that was laid off early may still be able to linger on the top of her head for a while.

Thinking of this, Qingqing touched the top of her head. Since she came to the ancient times, not only did she not lose her hair, but it also seemed to grow a lot, and the volume of her hair suddenly increased.

Qingqing can still think about her hair, but Brother Hu Laoxi can't leave her mind.

"20 Wen, isn't that even enough for the cost? And even if we give them the lowest price, the ten scales will still cost 200 Wen. Can their village afford it?"

20 cents per scale, this price is an unprecedented low price, even for the poorest quality charcoal on the market, it is more than this price.

But no matter how low it is, it is not affordable for the poor.

Brother Hu Laoxi heard Qingqing say 20 words, and he already felt that this was a female Bodhisattva in front of him, and Hu Laoxi was thoughtful.

"Grandpa Zu, do you mean that although it is difficult for them to buy charcoal for the whole winter, the low price of 20 fen allows them to buy one or two scales per household to pass the coldest days?"

Buli glanced at him, he didn't want to answer such a silly question.

Qingqing kindly answered questions: "Old Xi, you are not serious about reviewing the questions. My husband-in-law even raised the seven or eight scales required by others to ten scales. Why did you shorten it without authorization?"

She suddenly understood what happened to her hair that had been sacrificed to the heavens all those years. It must be because people like Lao Xi in the team were holding her back, she was so angry!

"But each household has ten scales, that's 200 Wen. I look at how poor their village is, I'm afraid many families can't afford 200 Wen?" Jiang Laosan asked.

This year's harvest is not good, and the soil quality in Yuanjia Village seems to be particularly poor. I don't know if this family has leaked too many secrets. It's not easy.

200 Wen, if you put it in Dayu who has been made rich by Buli and Qingqing, it is not much, but in this kind of place, it is enough to crush people.

"Cash can be given, or labor can be exchanged." Buli said the most important part of his plan.

"How do you change the method?" Brother Hu Laoxi had never heard of such an advanced thinking, and he listened attentively.

"If you can't get the silver, you can come to our village to help work. Our village has many opportunities to work. If you are a man, you can exchange 30 cash a day, women can exchange 20 cash, and children 5 cash. Such a family can work together, and it won't take much. One day can exchange enough charcoal for a whole winter."

"Ah, so it is!" Hu Laoxi suddenly realized.

"Grandpa Zu's move is brilliant, let them use their own labor in exchange for the charcoal they use, what should I say-" Jiang Laosan scratched his head, he wanted to use a literary word to describe this amazing grandfather of Zu creativity.

"The wool comes from the sheep." Qingqing said with a smile.

Jiang Laosan nods his head like a chicken eating rice.

That's right, that's what it means, it's amazing!

"30 Wen, this salary is lower than the current price of hiring people. If you go to the city to build a house, a man can almost earn 80-100 Wen a day, but in the current environment, there is no rich man who wants to build a house. Even if there is, It’s just a few people who are pick and choose, but we will provide them with opportunities to make money for the whole village!” Hu Laoxi said very excitedly.

"Furthermore, Grandpa Clan also provided opportunities for women and children. This is so attractive, and it can completely make up for the lack of money paid by male laborers!"

Men can find day laborers who work hard, but it is difficult for women.

Even if there are some scattered laundry chores, there are too many monks and too little food, and the money given is not much, so everyone rushes to do it. After all, it is difficult to earn 20 Wen a day.

Not to mention children.

Brother Hu Laoxi has also seen Dayu's labor intensity.

The most strenuous tasks are felling trees and transporting wood, which is nothing compared to other labors. Women making snacks and children making small goldfish molds are easy for farmers.

"I will open a separate kiln and let our own people master the kiln firing technology. They only need to provide labor." The meaning of Buli's words is to protect intellectual property rights.

He can do charity, but he will never shake his roots.

If those people wanted to bypass him and Qingqing and start their own kiln, the charcoal they would burn out would be useless charcoal, which would be a waste of time.

This is also to protect the interests of Dayu. If everyone learns this technology, then charcoal will be worthless in the future, and it will even flood.

Of course, this kind of behavior, after a little package in the mouth of Party A's father, became very high-minded: "Well, this is very environmentally friendly and ensures sustainable development."

They are all going to burn charcoal, so wouldn't they want to cut down the surrounding trees?

Looking back, the charcoal market is saturated, and the charcoal that cannot be sold is thrown there, and the trees are cut down for nothing, which is a crime.

Party A's father would naturally not agree to such a crime.
