Return to the small mountain village in 1993

Chapter 138 Ten yuan an hour

Tian Hao came closer and said in Tian Zhuxiang's ear: "Your sister-in-law Xiuying has been in a bad state of mind recently. I'm going to take her to the hospital later. I need a capable person to look after me at home. I hope you can help." I."

Tian Zhuxiang's face turned slightly red and she said nervously: "Is my sister-in-law Xiuying feeling unwell? I'll go check on her."

With that said, she walked into the kitchen, where Wang Xiuying was cooking.

"Sister-in-law Xiuying!"

Tian Zhuxiang shouted.

Wang Xiuying turned around and looked over. When she saw it was her, she hurriedly smiled and said: "Zhuxiang is here, sit down quickly, there are only two more dishes."

Tian Zhuxiang said with a smile: "I'm not here for a living. I went up to the field last night and caught some loaches and eels. I just gave them to Brother Hao and sold them for more than seventy yuan!"

"Sold for more than seventy yuan? How many did you catch?"

Wang Xiuying was cooking while chatting with Tian Zhuxiang.

Tian Zhuxiang took a closer look at Wang Xiuying's face, and found that it was indeed a little bad. The dark circles under her eyes seemed a bit heavy, and she said, "Not much, the loach and eel combined only weigh about fifty kilograms."

"Oh my God! Did you catch it last night? You actually caught more than fifty kilograms!" Wang Xiuying said in surprise.

Tian Zhuxiang said: "It's not bad. The loaches and eels in the field are very fat, so I only caught them for two or three hours." Then, pretending to be casual, he asked, "By the way, Xiu Sister-in-law Ying, I think you don’t look good, are you too tired recently?”

Wang Xiuying sighed: "I don't know what's going on. Recently, my whole body has been limp and I can't lift my spirits."

"Brother Hao just happened to be back. Ask him to take you to the hospital for a checkup." Tian Zhuxiang said, "A great man once said that the body is the capital of revolution, so we must pay attention to it!"

"It's not that serious. It'll be fine after a while."

Wang Xiuying didn't take it seriously.

Soon, the last two dishes were fried.

"Let's go, eat!"

Wang Xiuying brought the dishes to the main room, and Wang Cuifen quickly helped set the table, dishes and chopsticks.

"I won't eat anymore. I have to go back and pay the accounts! My eldest sister is in charge of the accounts at home now."

Tian Zhuxiang left quickly. Wang Xiuying and Wang Cuifen couldn't persuade her even if they wanted to.

"Uncle Daming, Brother Hao, I'm leaving."

Tian Zhuxiang said hello to Tian Daming and Tian Hao, and was about to leave quickly. When passing by Tian Hao, she stopped again and said, "Brother Hao, I want to go back and discuss what you said with my eldest sister."

After speaking, she really left.

Because she saw Wang Xiuying chasing her out again, she was afraid that she would invite her to dinner again, so she had to leave quickly.

Tian Hao and Tian Daming were still busy making purchases in the courtyard.

This time, they collected many and miscellaneous things.

Not only do you need to weigh and calculate the money, but you also need to arrange and package them in categories. There are many more things to do than buying bamboo shoots before.

Fortunately, the villagers were somewhat discerning. When they saw that Tian Hao's family was about to eat, they all stopped and asked Tian Daming and Tian Hao and his son to go eat quickly.

"How about having a bite at my house?"

Tian Daming invited the villagers.

The villagers waved their hands and found various reasons to refuse.

Tian Daming didn't insist. After setting up a buying station at home, he would often encounter such things. It was hard to get used to it. Of course, he still had to be polite at the very least.

Tian Hao was not so hypocritical. He told the villagers directly, called Tian Shilei, washed his hands and went into the house to eat.He is really hungry.

In the morning, I ate some leftovers from last night. I hadn’t eaten for several hours, and I was so hungry that my chest pressed against my back.

Sitting on the table, he ate heartily.

In the past, Tian Daming would have scolded him when he saw this scene, but now he felt a sense of distress.

"Eat slowly, don't choke!"

His tone was softer than ever before, and he helped Tian Hao scoop a bowl of soup for the first time.

Tian Hao was stunned for a moment, and without saying anything else, he lowered his head and ate fiercely.

When he was almost done eating, he raised his head and said to his family, "Wait a minute, I'll take Xiuying to the county hospital."

"Why go to the county hospital? I won't go. There are so many things at home..."

Wang Xiuying didn't want to go.

Tian Daming and Wang Cuifen looked at Wang Xiuying with worried faces, "Xiuying, are you sick? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? You have been really hard on you these years. You should listen to Tian Hao and go to the hospital for a check-up, and feel relieved. .The body is the most important thing, don’t be careless.”

"Dad, Mom, I'm fine. Don't listen to Tian Hao's nonsense." Wang Xiuying quickly comforted her.

Tian Haodao: "Whether it's nonsense or not, you have to go to the county hospital with me later. This cannot be refused. In addition, I plan to find a few people in the village to help us purchase mountain goods. Otherwise, just the few of us will be really helpless." too tired."

"It's just buying local goods, what's the point? Why do you need to find someone? Our family is enough. If you feel tired, you don't have to do it. Xiuying can rest if she doesn't feel well. Your mother and I, and Tian Zhuang and Xiaohua can help, are the four of us still too busy?"

Tian Daming directly opposed Tian Hao's proposal to find someone else.

Tian Hao smiled and said: "Dad, I know you want to save labor money, but have you ever thought about who will farm the land once you are tied up by the acquisition? Are you going to let Xiuying farm alone? "

"This one……"

Tian Daming was speechless for a moment.

Wang Cuifen said: "Okay, just listen to Tian Hao. He is much smarter than us. Since he wants to find someone, it must be necessary to find someone."

"But Tian Hao, who are you going to find?"

Tian Hao smiled and said: "Stone must be one, Tian Zhuxiang is also good, and Aunt Guihua is also good. As for the others, we will talk about it later. For the time being, recruiting three people is enough."

"Then how do you calculate labor costs?" Tian Daming asked.

Tian Haodao: "The acquisition has just started now, and there are not many things to do. Let's calculate it on an hourly basis first, ten yuan an hour. When the acquisition starts later, we can calculate it on a daily or monthly basis."

"Ten yuan an hour? So high?" Tian Daming was shocked.

Wang Cuifen was not too surprised.

She worked at Huabao's construction site for three months and gained a lot of knowledge. She knew that the hourly workers on the construction site could get 50 yuan an hour, while some could get 25 yuan an hour.

Tian Hao offered ten yuan an hour. If it were in the city, it would definitely be the cheapest, but in the remote and backward Tianba Village, it would be an extremely rare high price.

After all, some people in Tianba Village can’t earn more than ten yuan a month!
“High wages lead to motivation!”

Tian Hao smiled and said, "Okay, this matter has been settled. When the time comes, you can tell Tian Zhuxiang and Aunt Guihua, as for the stone..."

Having said this, Tian Hao looked at Tian Shilei who was sitting beside him, "Shitou, what do you think?"

Tian Shilei shook his head and smiled: "Of course I have no objection. How could I have any objection to such a high-paying job?"
