Chapter 136: At Least He's a Small Boss
"Why did you two rent that house? Don't you know that the house is not clean?"
As soon as the crowd left, the old lady asked the two people nervously.
The two men wanted to laugh at her fearful look, but the old lady glared at them, forcing the corners of their mouths to lower.
"Mom, our yards are too short and small, and even bullock carts can't get in. It's more convenient there. We went to see it, and it's spacious."
"Of course I know it's spacious, but the house is not clean. It's unlucky for you to do business here!" The old lady looked as if she was saying, "either you two are crazy or I am crazy."
"Auntie, there aren't so many ghosts and gods. Besides, there are so many of us working in there, even if there were any, they would be scared away by so many old people. Could it be that after killing one or two people, that thing could take away these dozens of people?" Duan Minmin looked certain.
Zheng Yuan directly took the old lady's hand: "You old man, just help us supervise the work without worry. I found you another job without your consent. I hope you won't be angry? Hmm? Mother~ Mother~"
Looking at the two people's sticky expressions, the old lady knew that they were going to do something terrible again.
He quickly pulled his hand away and pretended to shake off the goose bumps on his body to show that he was disgusted.
"Why should I be angry? I earn twenty cents a day for nothing. I'm just afraid that you'll be fooled by that thing. How weird! A prosperous family has gone bankrupt. You young people are just inexperienced. You just don't believe in these things. The elders have said there's something wrong with them, but you insist on going there."
"We know, mom, but we're just going there to do some work in broad daylight. With so many people and you in charge, there shouldn't be any problem. Where else in the village can we find such a good location and such a large yard for us to use?"
"That's true. Doing business is not that easy. You have to spend every penny carefully. Otherwise, I'll ask your father to find a Taoist priest to exorcise the evil spirits before we go in." The old lady was still a little worried.
The two of them were really at a loss for words.
"Mom, that's not necessary. We've already gone in and cleaned up. Look, we're still standing here in perfect condition. Don't worry, if we find anything wrong, we'll definitely evacuate immediately."
"By the way, Auntie, have you selected all the people we want?" Not wanting to let the old lady worry about this matter any longer, Duan Minmin quickly changed the subject.
"It's been chosen. After you left yesterday, people from Murakami came one after another and never stopped." The old lady's attention was indeed diverted.
"Let me tell you who they are, so you can have a better idea of who they are. If you are not satisfied with someone, I will go and tell them not to do so."
"No, no, whatever mother chooses is naturally the best, we trust mother completely, and you will be the one managing these people in the future anyway."
These people in the village only existed in the memories of the two original bodies. They were too lazy to look them up one by one and match them to their respective seats, so they quickly stopped the old lady from blurting out the names of the people.
"That's fine. When will you start working? I can tell those people so they don't feel uneasy and come to our house eight hundred times a day. They can't even eat in peace."
Thinking of the waves of people coming in from yesterday to this morning, Old Mrs. Chen got a headache.
"We will start work the day after tomorrow. Mother, please inform them to gather at the gate of Chen Fangping's house at 9:00 p.m."
"Si Shi? So late?"
"Mom, it's not too late. We worked until 4:45 in the afternoon. Four hours a day is a long time."
The two of them have already figured it out: an eight-hour workday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., with an hour's break and lunch time in between.
Having suffered enough as a corporate slave in the previous life, let these two hold up this umbrella for me.
The old lady didn't understand.
"Four hours is considered long? Everyone in this village works in the fields for five or six hours a day and still thinks the day is too short and they can't finish their work. But you think four hours is too long. Just wait and see. For piecework, I'm afraid people won't want to leave even after the clock is off."
Although she said so, the old lady did not say much. She knew very well that this was Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin's business, and she could not interfere too much.
"Then I'll go inform them right away. By the way, I have something to tell you. Can your sister-in-law and Chang'an from our family also be arranged in? Although I am a little selfish, I can guarantee that your sister-in-law's work is unmatched by many people in the village. And Chang'an, he is young and careful, and he will definitely not be worse than those who were not selected."
"Another thing is that I think outsiders are never as caring as family members. If they follow me, they can help look after things that I can't handle."
What the old lady said was not false. Her sister-in-law's needlework was one of the best in the village, and Chang'an was in his prime and had a lot of strength in his hands.
And if the old lady really had selfish motives, she wouldn't have to tell them and could have just arranged for the whole family to move in. That way, they wouldn't have chased them away.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Old Lady Chen began to feel uneasy again. Is she angry? If I had known, I would have listened to the old man and not arranged for my own family.
The old lady felt a little regretful.
"It's okay if it doesn't work. Don't worry, I'll go find two more people." The silence of the two made the old lady panic.
The two men grabbed the old lady who was about to leave.
"Mom, what are you thinking? Since we have handed this matter over to you, we trust you completely. We have no objection to whoever you choose."
"It's just that Dasao and Changan really can't work with them."
As expected, you still don’t trust the boss’s family?
The old lady was a little depressed. The second daughter-in-law and the eldest daughter-in-law had been getting along so well during this period. She thought that the second daughter-in-law had completely let it go.
Looking at the old lady's expression, the two men knew that she was overthinking again, and hurriedly interrupted her wild thoughts.
"Mom, we don't let Sister-in-law and Chang'an go to work with them because we have other things for them to do. The things we are going to make this time must be done straight and neatly, and we can't be careless. So we need Sister-in-law and Chang'an to help us check the finished products. They will be responsible for checking them, and only when they are qualified will they count, and we will pay the workers according to the qualified quantity."
The old lady was stunned when she heard this: "Why do we need to send two people to check something? I can just watch it by myself."
"Mom, you are in charge of the overall situation. If you control the quality, who will watch over those people for us?"
"But, can they do it?" The old lady was still a little hesitant.
"What's wrong with that? This thing is not difficult. Go back and tell my sister-in-law and Chang'an, and see if they are willing to come and guard this for us. The salary will be the same as yours, twenty cents a day."
"Then why don't you agree? No need to ask them."
The old lady thought that she could earn twenty cents just by watching others work. Only a fool would not do such a cheap thing.
"Okay, these people are really annoying. They delayed me for such a while. I see you just came back and I'm afraid you haven't eaten yet? Do you need me to cook for you?"
"Why would you need to cook for us? There are so many people at home. You don't need to bother. Mom, would you like to stay here for lunch?"
"No, no, we had breakfast late, you guys should hurry up and eat. I won't talk nonsense here, I have to go to the village to find two more people to come up, and notify those people to come to work the day after tomorrow. We also have to make arrangements at home, and we will officially start work the day after tomorrow. You guys should also tidy up, after all, you can be considered a small boss, don't let others laugh at you."
The back of the little old lady going out is full of joy
