Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 713 County Magistrate Recruiting Workers
Before the shopkeeper could say anything else, Song Chen left a few copper coins and left.

Back on the carriage, Song Chen couldn't wait to open the wine jar and let Song Dashan smell it, "Is it good wine? This is a treasure. I bought it for a lot of money. Do I have to drink two glasses today?"

Song Dashan was not a good drinker. Even when he drank, he only had two drinks when the atmosphere was high, and he never got drunk.

It was really a good time to have two drinks at a time like today, but when he thought of his daughter's drinking capacity... he instantly regretted why he had mentioned this matter.

"Since it's good wine, keep it and drink it during the New Year."

The prince's son-in-law cannot be offended.

"It's good to celebrate the New Year as much as the Chinese New Year. This wine is prepared for today. You don't have to drink it if you don't want to. Grandpa and grandma know how to drink it."

Song Chen made Song Dashan surrender in just a few words. When the group returned to Beiguan Village, the sun was almost setting.

"Hey, look, why are there so many people guarding the entrance to our village?"

Song Wang was the first to discover that a lot of people had gathered at the entrance of Beiguan Village. This situation made her a little worried. After all, they were the only family in Beiguan Village now.

She was a little worried when so many people suddenly appeared.

When Song Chen heard what she said, she poked her head out and took a look. She thought it was the people from Wangcun who were looking for trouble again.If this is really the case, then the county magistrate really should be changed.

One parent and one official have no authority at all in the hearts of the people, so what's the point?
But when she saw familiar people, her expression relaxed, "These people are all from Shiping Village. They should know that you are coming back today and come here specifically to have fun."

Song Chen had never been able to speculate maliciously on the people of Shiping Village.

Facts have proved that her guess was correct.

"Brother Song, sister-in-law, you are back."

Li Zheng from Shiping Village took the lead to step forward. Before the Song family left Beiguan Village, he had had a lot of dealings with Song Dashan, and the relationship between the two was considered good.

Song Dashan also laughed happily when he saw him, "Ren Lizheng, why are you here?"

Ren Liqiang turned around and looked at the people of Shiping Village behind him, "Didn't they know that you were coming today? After hearing about it, the people in the village were afraid that you would feel too deserted when you came back, so they wanted to come here to help you liven things up."

"Thank you so much, thank you so much."

When Song Dashan heard what he said, he was deeply moved. It was just a small thing, but it was full of true feelings.

Their experiences outside in the past two years can be considered thrilling, but after experiencing so much, they really value true feelings.

"It's too late today. Ren Li remembers to bring the folks over tomorrow. Let's hold a banquet and let's all have a good time together."

In the past, Song Dashan would never say such words casually. After all, speaking such words would cost money.

Now I can say such words easily, firstly because there is no shortage of money, and secondly because I really want to thank the people of Shiping Village for their kindness.

But the people of Shiping Village could only refuse, "Thank you Brother Song for your kindness. We really don't have time now. We have to work in the workshop every day. Besides, we came here voluntarily. We don't dare to let Song Bro is spending money."

They now run up and down the Workshop Mountain every day, and no one has any free time. If they come back earlier today, they may not be able to come over.

Hearing the word "workshop", Song Dashan looked at Song Chen, "Has the workshop started to operate?"

Song Chen nodded matter-of-factly, "Then what else will I do when I come back? Well, Ren Lizheng and the others have had a hard day's work, so don't waste other people's time here."

Only then did Song Dashan remember this, "Yes, yes, yes."

After that, he thanked everyone in Shiping Village. Ren Liqiang quickly took the villagers back to Shiping Village. After going back to have a few bites, he had to take the time to rest and continue working tomorrow.

As for the Song family, Song Chen still cheated him into drinking.

In fact, she had already made up her mind about the wine, but she couldn't find any good excuse. Just when her father mentioned the wine today, she quickly solved the matter.

She took a small sip, and the smooth taste was quite different from the feeling of liquor in her mouth that she remembered.

But after all, it is still liquor, and it will still sting your throat the moment it enters your throat.

"Why do some people like to drink this stuff? Aren't they just trying to get drunk for themselves?"

Song Chen gave up after it was spicy when it entered his throat, but Song Dashan and the others continued to drink. Three generations of people were sitting in this first house of their own. This feeling was always indescribable in words. Maybe it was really Only wine can understand how they feel about each other.

**
The county magistrate also acted quickly, and notices have been posted all over Baofeng County.

Song Chen also saw a notice in Chongyun Town. The general content on it was to recruit workers, but it only said wages and nothing else. People who wanted to work had to go to the Yamen to have him see it in person.

The salary above was indeed very exciting, but when he said that he had to go to the Yamen to make a personal selection, all the people who were originally enthusiastic died down.

"No, do you understand? What exactly does this mean? Have you ever seen someone go to the Yamen to find something to do?"

"I haven't seen it before, but I know it today. I don't know what the county magistrate wants to do. The wages are quite high. Why don't you give it a try?" "What are you trying? That's a yamen..."

Of course, compared to most people who are afraid, there are still people who want to give it a try, not for anything else but just for the high wages.

It's just that the county magistrate has to explain the place of work and the nature of the work to everyone in person, so he can only leave the information of these people first, tell them to come according to the final deadline on the notice, and wait until then to tell everyone what needs to be said. Make it clear.

The first day the notice was posted, the response was not even mediocre.

Song Chen also learned about this situation in time. This situation was very easy to solve. On the same day, he sent Cang Xiu Xuanxin to find those who came with her parents.

"Starting from tomorrow, you are going to various towns in Baofeng County..."

So, on the second day.

The places where notices were posted in various towns in Baofeng County were still crowded with people. Most of them were the latest people to be attracted. Those people sent by Song Chen started to act according to Song Chen's instructions.

Whenever someone said they didn't want to go to the Yamen, or said how the Yamen was, they stood up.

"This is a great thing. The county magistrate helps recruit workers, so he doesn't have to worry about being cheated. And with such high wages, he can marry a wife directly after working for two years."

These words may sound like just a few ordinary words, but the meaning is already very obvious.

Others were afraid of going to the Yamen, but he said that with the support of the county magistrate, others would not dare not pay their wages, nor would they dare to bully them. This was the most worrying thing for workers.

But the participation of a county magistrate almost prevented such a situation.

Another point is the high wages, because there are so many people who are too poor to get a wife, but what man doesn’t want his wife and children to be on the hot bed.

"Don't say it yet, what this little brother said really makes sense. I'll give it a try."

"I also want to give it a try. The county magistrate won't take us away for no reason, right? Is there any way to do it?"

"The deadline for registration written on this notice is tomorrow, so let's go and register as soon as possible."

The county magistrate who had been waiting at the county office was shocked when he saw the waves of people coming to sign up. In fact, to him, the situation like yesterday was considered normal. Today's situation is simply unbelievable. .

Fortunately, the county magistrate was also someone who had experienced strong winds and waves, and he quickly stabilized the situation.

Just like yesterday, ask everyone to sign up and have their fingerprints pressed, and then ask them to come back at the deadline.

In just one day, it’s like flying around.

The recruitment registration has ended. The county magistrate looked at the booklet in front of him and saw that quite a few people had put their fingerprints on it.

According to the agreed time, they should be coming soon.

"Master, are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare?"

The county magistrate took a sip of tea and asked his master.

The master hurriedly took out a piece of paper and showed it to him, "Sir, these deeds are all ready. Please take a look."

The county magistrate waved his hand and said, "I can rest assured that you can handle the matter. You won't need to take a look at it. You should be more careful. Everyone who is willing to stay must sign the deed later."

The master nodded, "Don't worry, I can save it."

At the appointed time, the guards guarding the gate of the county government opened the gate of the county government and called in all the people who had signed up before by name.

It was almost full of people from the county government office. The county magistrate originally wanted to sit down and talk, but in the end he had to give up this plan because what he said while sitting here could not be heard by the people behind him.

The good thing is that this is a government office. No matter how many people there are, they don't dare to make any noise when they come in. They are all waiting for the county magistrate's words.

The county magistrate remembered what Song Chen had said to him before, and adjusted his emotions, "You all came here after seeing the notice?"

The crowd nodded.

"Do you know where this is?"

Everyone nodded again.

"Do you know where you are going to work?"

This time everyone shook their heads.

The county magistrate may have thought that the foreshadowing was enough, so he went directly to the topic, "There is a village in our Baofeng County called Beiguan Village. It is recruiting a lot of workers there. There will be various workshops there, and you will be divided into Work in various workshops. The original residents of Beiguan Village have all moved away. The workshop you are assigned to will prepare a place for you. If you want to go, just go to the master's place to sign the deed. The county government will give you five A reward of ten coins.”
