The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 102 The third son of the Gu family (1)
If the people in Shili Village knew about Purple Taro, they might have snatched up all of them early in the morning.

"Uncle Laifu, I'm afraid I have to trouble you to find some people to help dig purple taro. There is such a large purple taro forest in the mountain. I don't know how long it will take to dig it with my own strength. Besides, I have to take care of Zuixiang. I don’t have so much time and energy for things in the workshop. Don’t worry, as for the problem of finding labor, I will take care of it myself. After digging up those purple taro, each person will be paid [-] Wen. Uncle Laifu just needs to help find people. .”

Wei Changjue's salary of [-] Wen was already very high.

The taro forest in Guoziling has soft and fertile soil. Before that, she could dig out the taro from the soil with a light digging with the mouth of a sickle. After digging all the taro, seven or eight people can finish it in one morning at most.

In fact, for a salary of three hundred wen, it is very easy to find a few people to dig taro with a hoe. After all, the work is easy. At most, one day's work can earn hundreds of wen. This is such a high salary. , who doesn't want to do it, is not a fool.

With such a high salary, as long as Wei Changqu stood at the entrance of Shili Village and shouted loudly, there would definitely be many people willing to go up the mountain to dig taro, but Wei Changqu could not alert the people of Shili Village yet.

For one thing, there are always two or three gossiping women in the village who like to chew the tongues of other people's homes when they have nothing to do. If she suddenly pays such a high salary to ask someone to help with the work, I don't know how many red-eyed dogs will be recruited, such as the one from the old Wei's house. people.

Although she wasn't afraid of Yao's people, she didn't want to cause too many unnecessary troubles.

Secondly, in the eyes of Shili Villagers, Guoziling only produces sour fruits, and the mountains are covered with thorns, but they can't grow any food.

In fact, Wei Changju had already taken a fancy to the wild fruit trees in Guoziling. If she wanted to take Guoziling smoothly in the future, she must not let the people in the village know about the purple taro. I don't know how many troubles will arise about the taro matter, and Panguoziling will inevitably be full of difficulties in the future.

Wan Laifu heard that Wei Changju wanted to invite some people to go up the mountain to dig purple taro, so she didn't ask too much, why didn't she find someone in the village nearby, so she readily agreed.

"Changqu, uncle will go to Zhangluo to find someone to dig potatoes tonight. The wages you offer are so high. There are many people who want to do such a good job. If you find someone, ask Su Cheng to take him to ten tomorrow morning. In the village."

"Uncle Laifu, thank you for your help." Wei Changqu thanked Wan Laifu while looking at him.

Wan Laifu waved his hand, feigning displeasure, and spat: "There's nothing to thank for such a small matter, Changqu treats uncle as an outsider, doesn't he?"

After talking about digging purple taro, Wei Changju went to the back kitchen to work.

After a while, it's time to serve guests. At this time, Ah Gui, Su Cheng has to focus on cleaning and has no time to care about the back kitchen.

Yu Qian was busy preparing the ingredients for today's lunch in the back kitchen alone, and she was a little too busy, so she was going to lend a helping hand and make some.

Yu Qian hurriedly cut up all kinds of ingredients and set them aside.

Wei Changjue helped with picking and washing vegetables.

While doing things here, thinking about the rare purple taro that he ate just now, Yu Qian couldn't help being curious, grabbed Wei Changjue and asked a few words, and said, "Changjue, you can make some of the purple taro you mentioned. What kind of dishes."

When it comes to the cooking method of purple taro, it is full of tricks.

It is not surprising that Yu Qian is obsessed with cooking skills and is curious about purple taro, the king of vegetables.

Wei Changju didn't hide anything, and said a few things casually: "Uncle Qian, purple taro has so many magical uses, and I can't tell for a while. This purple taro can be stewed, braised, or made into purple taro cake." , purple taro balls, and the taste is very delicious."

She also wanted to say that purple taro ice cream can also be made, but ice cream is a bit too avant-garde, and freezing is still a technical job, so let's not consider it for the time being.

In the back kitchen, the two talked and laughed, and finished their work in a while. At this time, Zuixiangfang also had guests.

The guests came in wave after wave, Su Cheng and Agui were busy entertaining, and the lobby on the first floor was soon full of people.

In just two days, the business of Zuixiangfang has almost stabilized.

On this day, Wei Changqu was so busy that he kept his feet on the ground, weighing the spoon for a long time.

Wei Changju sighed, hey!Being a chef is really more tiring than being a food critic.

After dinner, Su Cheng sent them back to Shili Village.

Back at the mountain temple, like yesterday, he boiled a basin of hot water to wash, and then Wei Changqu went to bed early to rest.

Wei Changqu lay on the bed and chatted with Xiaoluotou for a while. At some point, both siblings fell asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Wei Changju had just gotten up and put on his clothes, and before he could boil a basin of hot water to wash his face, he faintly heard someone knocking on the door, and the person stood outside the door and said softly: "Miss Wei, get up Yet?"

Wei Changju listened carefully, and it seemed to be Su Cheng's voice.

Su Cheng thought that Wei Changjue hadn't gotten up yet, and when he knocked on the door, his voice became a little soft.

These people came so early, Uncle Laifu was really worried about putting those purple taros on the mountain, and the hair hadn't been combed yet, "Brother Su Cheng, wait a moment." Wei Changjue shouted towards the door, and then she took He took out the wooden comb, tied up his hair and went to open the door. The genius was dim, and he saw that Su Cheng and the others were still lighting a torch, and the light of the fire shone on Su Cheng's face.

There was heavy dew outside the door, Wei Changjue called several people into the house, and casually said politely: "Everyone, Changjue's house is shabby, don't be surprised."

Today, Su Cheng brought eight big men to help Wei Changju go up the mountain to dig taro.

These rough men, after entering the mountain temple, looked east and west, thinking about it in their hearts.

Living in such a dilapidated house is not as good as a side house at home. If such a family asks them to work, can they afford the wages?I heard that they just went up the mountain to dig something, and they said that it was only a day's work at most, and each of them would get three hundred cash after finishing the work.

Several rough men peeped at each other, and finally they all looked at Su Cheng together.

But the shopkeeper Wanda of Zuixiangfang called them here. They are all familiar with Zhishui Town. The business of Zuixiangfang has been booming in the past two days. The shopkeeper Wanda should not be short of their wages, so they are all relieved. Come.

Eight rough men plus Su Cheng, a group of people stood in the simple mountain temple. The mountain temple was originally a single room, and the space was narrow. When nine people stopped in the room, the room was instantly filled with darkness. A piece of human head.

Wei Changju lit the oil lamp, but only a dim gloomy light could be seen.

A group of people arrived at Shili Village early in the morning. It was dark and the road was difficult, and the horseshoes ran slowly. At least they got up when the rooster crowed for the first time.
