Chapter 58 Zhuangzi's Journey ([-])

"Miss is here!" Wang Fu and his wife soon came, entered the door, and greeted Li Xin with a drink.

"Sit down! My two younger brothers haven't been here yet, so I'll bring them over to have a look while they're resting today."

"The two sons are here too! Why don't you see them?" Yang asked with a smile on his face.She looks a little bit fat, she looks festive, and she speaks sharply, which is very flattering.After getting along, Li Xin still has a good impression of Yang.Yang is very enthusiastic, not only for her, but also for other servants in Zhuangzi.Enthusiasm is just right, not too much.Some people are too enthusiastic, which will make people uncomfortable, but what Yang did was just right.The popularity in Zhuangzi is very good, and the other servants are friendly and respectful to Mrs. Yang.

"I asked them to play in the back garden, and we will see you later. I will take them here to have lunch before leaving, and I will ask Mrs. Wang to help clean up. It doesn't have to be very good, we will eat whatever everyone eats Anything will do."

"Miss, that's too polite. Isn't this what it should be. But the rough food in this village, I'm afraid you won't be used to it."

"What's the matter? We used to be hungry and full when the days were bad. It's better now. We can eat whatever everyone can eat."

"Then I'm going to fix it right now, and let the young lady taste the food in our village." After speaking, Yang stood up, seeing that Li Xin had no other orders, she went out first.

"By the way, I haven't asked about Brother Wang's field yet! How's the brassica growing?" After Mrs. Yang walked out, Li Xin asked Wang Fu.Wang Fu is in charge of the affairs in the field, which makes it easier for him to know more than Yang.

"It's almost planted. More than 100 acres of brassicas have been planted, and about [-] acres of peas have been sprinkled. This year's brassica seeds are a bit small. If the young lady also planted a lot, it won't take long. The brassicas grow fast. , Generally, the seeds will be old in two or three months, and the seeds will be very abundant by then."

"That's good, let's plant the last season first and see! If the harvest is good, I will plant some more next year. I just want to see how the planting is going. Since the planting is almost done, I am relieved. After work After that, let everyone have a good rest, we will be busy after the spring.”

"Miss, don't worry. The people in this village have been planting fields for many years, and they are considered good methods. There is no problem in farming. The fields are also very good, and the brassicas will be very good. As for letting them rest , as long as the busy work in the field is over, they will be let to rest."

"I still don't know how Boss Zheng gave everyone Yueyin before, and did he give them some clothes for the four seasons?" Speaking of which, Li Xin really didn't know how to treat these people!She had forgotten about it before, so she didn't ask Zheng Xing.Although these people will be her servants in the future, even if she doesn't give Yueyin, it doesn't matter.But she doesn't want to pick things up, she still wants to give these people monthly money, so that they can also buy something they like.Food and lodging are included in Zhuangzi, but everyone will have something they want to buy!There should still be some cash in hand.

"In the past, I didn't send money according to the monthly silver. At the end of the year, I would usually give a red envelope. Children are given one tael of silver, and older ones are given three taels of silver. For adults, Ten taels for men and eight taels for women. Then each person will be given two clothes per season."

"That's it!" In fact, Zheng Xing's treatment is still very good, even the children who can't work can get money and have four seasons clothes to wear.Food and lodging are included in Zhuangzi, and many daily necessities are also sent by the owner, so there is not much money to spend on weekdays.Calculated, the annual income of each family is still quite a lot, and they can live comfortably.It seems that Zheng Xing and his wife treat their servants very well.

"In the past, the master's family treated the people in Zhuangzi very preferentially."

"That's the truth. Boss Zheng is really a nice person. How about it! Let me change this treatment for everyone, let's change it to monthly silver! It will be paid out every month, so that it will be more convenient when you need money. You can't work For children, it is [-] qian per month, for half-grown children, [-] qian, for adults, it is [-] tael and [-] qian for men, and for women, it is [-] liang of silver. For clothes, children and half-grown children are still paid eight taels of silver per year. Clothes, if you are an adult, they are always in the fields, and the clothes will be torn quickly, so each person will be given an extra suit every season. We will also start making winter clothes, so we should make more warm ones, so as not to let people freeze."

"Miss is truly a bodhisattva."

"Don't praise me. When the time comes, everyone should not think that the work I give is tiring. I don't plan to grow wheat. Other crops will be more troublesome than managing wheat."

"It's nothing, it's just planting some fields, and I won't get tired."

"Then let's do this first. Zhuangzi will also see if he is busy. If he is really too busy, he will invite some people to help. You and Mrs. Wang will pay the wages. If the money I give is not enough, Just to say, I will send it again. By the way, you should also take a look at it on weekdays. If you do a particularly good job, you will remember it. Zhuangzi will select it every six months, and everyone will select the top three people who have done the best. I have another reward."

"As soon as the young lady's words come out, I'm afraid they will rush to do the work."

"That's what I want. Let everyone work hard. The harvest in Zhuangzi is good, and I will not treat you badly. I see that there are many children in Zhuangzi. If they can't work, why not send them to the academy! Learn some words That’s okay, I can also help with bookkeeping and the like in the future. If he learns well in the future, I will let him get out of slavery and take the imperial examination.”

"Miss, don't worry, I will definitely pass on this word, and if anyone is willing, then send it."

"Okay, let's arrange it like this. Let's find someone to make winter clothes as soon as possible! If the women in Zhuangzi are willing to make their own clothes, then they will pay [-]% more for the fabric. Buy more charcoal, don’t be reluctant to use it when it’s cold, and share enough for everyone. If you go to the field, buy some mutton and mutton bones and cook a few pots of soup for everyone to drink to warm your body. "

After ordering to go down, seeing that there was nothing missing, Li Xin let Wang Fu go down first.Now that he has a lot of money in his hand, Li Xin also thought about making life better for the people in the village.If she treats these people well, these people will work well for her.She can't always watch Zhuangzi's side, so naturally she still needs the help of these people.
