A small peasant girl

Chapter 313

After the town's bazaar was completed, Wang Digai suffered the most. On weekdays, he scrambled to go to the property under his name to find part-time workers, and several of them rented a shop together to start a small business.

Now no one wants to pay attention to the employment news he asked his subordinates to release. Wang Digai, who used to be full of people but is now deserted and seriously understaffed, has lost more than one-third of his profits.

If there is a shortage of part-time workers for one or two days, Wang Digai's wealth is rich and can support him for a period of time.But if the situation in the town continues like this in the future, the money in his pocket will be slowly withdrawn, and there will be a moment when it will be exhausted.

Regardless of Wang Digai's rich family background, he needs to spend most of his money to establish relationships. The money for dealing with the government alone accounts for one-third of his total income.In addition, the tribute money of some bigwigs in the underworld accounted for a lot of the total, which made him start to worry.

"Since all the uncles think highly of me and don't think I'm young and ignorant of the rules, then I'll talk a lot." Yuan Qing cleared his throat after finishing his polite words, and boldly stated the plan in his mind. Come out, the purpose of his coming to the town is not simply to bring down a market.

"Here's what you need. Well, let's go to Yangzhou Fried Rice." A man in a short shirt sat down on a stool with sweat on his head. He looked at the signature dishes and shouted to the people inside, " Hurry up, I'm starving to death."

The man who spoke was Wen Peiwei. He was a foreman in charge of road construction in the town. He managed all matters related to the road construction of the workers, including errands such as food.

When he didn't take over the job, Wen Peiwei still felt that this kind of errand should not be too easy and easy to say, but he didn't know which god he didn't worship, and the workers on the construction site were always finding fault, especially not cooperating with the work he arranged , which made Wen Peiwei quite troubled.

The workers who can come to build the road are all poor people from the poor villages around the town, and there is a serious shortage of fields in the village.They have no land to grow, and there is not enough food to eat. In order to survive, they can only sell their labor on the construction site to work for the yamen, so as to earn some money to support their families.

The county master is kind by nature, and he takes special care of these poor people. Usually, the workers in the town can only receive twenty Wen a day for their hard work, but he made a special case to give each person an extra ten Wen a day, and even more. Have a lunch.

Of course, workers who don't need to take care of meals are given a subsidy of five renminbi per meal in order to allow them to better serve the yamen.

It was the five renminbi money that the county lord kindly gave to supplement food, which made Wen Peiwei very upset. The cost of the cooks on the construction site to ensure that the workers had enough to eat had already exceeded five renminbi silver coins.

Wen Peiwei is a down-to-earth and honest person, and has no idea of ​​corruption or bribery, but every time the workers eat a meal, he has to put a lot of money in it, and his little wages are not enough to put it in.

Because of this, Wen Peiwei thought about directly giving the workers five cents and letting them bring some food from home, but he didn't expect that these guys didn't know whether they were too stingy to spend money, or they were too family-oriented and didn't want to waste it. Bringing some cold corn buns and eating pickles made him feel very sad, thinking that workers who can't eat enough can have the strength to work.

No, the enthusiasm of the workers is not high, and the day of road construction has been postponed a lot. Wen Peiwei is being called by the county master to the Yamen for a good 'education'.When he was in distress, the kind master kindly reminded him that if he went to Wenzi's Duoweimei shop to eat something, he might be able to come up with a solution to the problem.
