Chapter 337 The Rainy Season (1)
The summer harvest in the village is already extremely busy. Fortunately, the weather has been pretty good these days, and it has always been sunny.Although it was getting hotter, none of the people complained of suffering or tiredness. Many people from neighboring villages appeared on the outskirts of the village looking for work.The asking price also varies a day, ranging from eighteen copper coins to twenty.

People in the village can also count, even if their own family members do handwork at home, they can earn more than this amount in a day.Under such circumstances, almost all households in Qingxi Village hired short-term workers to help.

These working villagers went to each house to have a look, hey, it is simply incomparable with their own.The house outside looked dilapidated, but the furniture inside was neat and clean.

There are chicken pens and pig pens behind each house, and one family hardly pulls them.Especially every family raises almost dozens of chickens.There are also a lot of peppers planted on the ground in front of and behind the house. These are all money.

"Brother, does your family have a lot of income a year?" Zhao Dabao's family used to have five helpers, and the family only had eight acres of fertile land. Because Mrs. Song was pregnant, the Zhao family was reluctant to let her work.

Besides, all four members of the family have income, so they don't care about the small money. With eight acres of land, five part-time workers plus two laborers, seven people will be finished in four days.

Four hundred Wen is a small amount of money to the Zhao family.

"Not much, about five or six taels of silver, plus eggs, peppers and the income from the greenhouse, it can be eight or nine taels." Zhao Dabao replied vaguely.

The five people who answered him gasped, my God, their family can't earn eight or nine taels a year.

"My brother's house is going to build a house?" The helper asked respectfully when he saw the blue bricks placed outside.

"Not for now, we'll talk about it after the baby is born." Zhao Dabao said cheerfully, looking at the back room.

"How many factories do you have in Qingxi Village?" the helper couldn't help asking, and the companions also listened with pricked ears.In fact, several people wanted to ask Zhao Dabao to help them introduce the head of the Su family.

"More than a dozen." Zhao Dabao didn't want to mention the things in the factory anymore when he got here, he just kept persuading them to eat more.

To say that Zhao Dabao's family is real, they stir-fried four dishes at noon, two meat and two vegetables, all of which were real.The staple food is white rice and bone broth.

A few helpers eat oil from the corners of their mouths, and they are willing to work hard.

"Big brother, don't think our brother is talkative. We have an unfeeling request. Please help brother." One of the men begged with a bitter face, and the rest followed suit.

"Say, I will help if you please." Zhao Dabao was easy to talk to.

"Big brother, can you ask the owner for us to see if their factory still needs people?" The man finally spoke his mind cruelly.

"It's not that brothers don't help you, our village has rules. If the boss wants to find someone, she will naturally post a notice, and if she wants to use it, it's only close to a village." Zhao Dabao shied away.

"Well, if the employer recruits workers in the future, please help recommend Beicun." These people still don't give up.

"I can't speak either." Zhao Dabao smiled.

The helpers sighed when they heard this.

Zhao Dabao was also helpless in their encounter, and during the rest of the time, the five helpers never mentioned going to work again.

Zhao Dabao also breathed a sigh of relief. The people in Qingxi Village and Xiaoju Village also encountered such things, but everyone used the same method as Zhao Dabao's family to prevaricate.

During the seven-day holiday, the seedlings of those who were busy quickly had already entered the fields, and those who were slow to work had to hand over all the work in the field to helpers, who only went to take care of them when they were off work.

After being busy intermittently like this, it entered the rainy season.

The people in the village are not in a hurry, they go to and from work every day, they have a full schedule and live a full life.

Although the toys, silk flowers, cleaning supplies, and cosmetics have not yet started to be sold, the villagers and servants have to be paid for their wages, but Su Qingqing has money in her hand, and she has not taken this little money to heart.

Perhaps this is the performance of deep pockets.

All the daughters-in-law and girls in the village have learned how to make up, and when they go out, they look like they come out of a painting, and there are no sloppy people in the village.Even the five or sixty-year-old lady tidied herself up neatly and used the free trial products from the Su family.

After a year in the village, more than a dozen houses have built buildings, which are very eye-catching in the village.

There are more people who are also busy buying bricks to build new houses, and the village is full of prosperity.

In Su Qingqing's eyes, such days are undoubtedly life in a paradise.

"These red fruits are beginning to ripen, miss, do you want to sell them along with the vegetables?" Ding Yi asked for instructions carrying a large basket of tomatoes.

He and a few workers were wearing oilcloth raincoats, the rain was still dripping, and it was not easy to enter the house, so they stood at the bottom of the corridor and waited.

"It's all ripe, that's great." Su Qingqing looked at the bright red tomatoes, and couldn't help asking Zi Su to wash them quickly and send them over.

"Not for the time being, let's use the first batch of fruits to make jam." Su Qingqing said with a smile. "You send the fruit to the sauce factory. I'll go and have a look in the afternoon."

Ding Yi happily agreed.

At this time, pinellia and perilla just washed the tomatoes.

Su Qingqing gave one to each delivery person, and gave Ding Yi a few more to take back for the children to eat.

She knew that without her own order, Ding Yi and the others would never eat a fruit or a green onion in the greenhouse.

Ding Yi and the others were so happy to receive the reward, they thanked Su Qingqing repeatedly before leaving.

"This is the baby you miss?" Li Yuanchu stood beside her and asked.

"Taste." Su Qingqing handed him one, and took a bite herself.

"Me too." Jing Ning shouted.

"This thing can still be eaten raw. Why is the fruit so short?" Mr. Su asked in surprise. In his impression, edible fruits should grow on trees, at least they should grow like grapes like that.

Su Qingqing smiled and sent one to her family, "It belongs to vegetables, but it can also be eaten raw."

Hui Niang and Su Zhongren saw that the fruit was red and lovely, so they couldn't help but also took a bite, a sweet and sour taste immediately filled their mouths, "Juicy and delicious, delicious."

"It can also be used to scramble eggs and make soup. It is even more delicious if you put sugar in cold salad." Su Qingqing explained.

"Miss, I'm going to cold mix." Ban Xia asked for instructions with a smile.

"Go ahead, let grandpa, grandpa, and grandma taste it." Su Qingqing waved her hand in agreement.
