Chapter 115 Smoke is rising from the ancestral graves
"That's right, if you go to the town or the county to work hard, your daily wages are only more than ten or twenty copper coins. Then you have to spend two or three cents to buy two thick pancakes to eat. You can eat four big meat buns for these five cents. How nice.”

The woman replied: "But if you save a little, the money will go into your pocket."

Man: "You don't understand this. You women only know how to be thrifty. Only us men have worked as coolies, so we know how worthwhile these meat buns are. Besides, in fact, we also know that naturally I won’t eat big meat buns every day. After all, the food for this month is limited to 200 yuan, which is almost enough. There is still 150 yuan for subsidized food, and only the owner of the workshop can do it. Give us subsidies. It doesn’t matter if wages are low elsewhere, don’t even think about subsidies.”

The man said with a look of contentment that couldn't be hidden on his face. He must cherish the job he is looking for now and do it well. Such good treatment is not easy to find.

Looking at the man, Zhao Laosan, who was about to go home for dinner, smiled and said: "Although the food subsidy only started to be available this year, last year our workshop only started working for two or three months, and we received one tael of silver as a bonus at the end of the year, and also paid We bought meat, glutinous rice cakes, brown sugar and other new year products.”

Chen Youzhou echoed: "On the 28th of the year, there are prizes and bonuses for the New Year's Eve dinner. The highest is five taels of silver, and the lowest is a consolation prize of two hundred cash. Your food subsidy of more than one hundred cash is nothing."

Zhao Laosan: "Everyone has come in now, so you have to work hard and don't do anything to lose your job, otherwise you will regret it."

Chen Youzhou: "That's right. As long as you work hard, my boss will never treat you badly."

After the two of them finished speaking, they hurried home.

Everyone was left looking at their departing figures with shocked expressions.

"Is this true or false?"

"It's true. Aunt Lin's daughter from our village told her this when she went back to her parents' home for New Year greetings. As soon as my mother heard about it, she quickly asked Aunt Lin's son-in-law to help introduce her. As soon as I heard that the recruitment started, I Come here quickly. Last year they gave out rewards and gifts to everyone. Because of this, Menghu Village also wanted to rob their village, but our boss's husband was a general, and everyone in Menghu Village was arrested. "

"What?!!"

"ah?!!"

Everyone who didn't know the truth was almost shocked.

"So our boss is actually a general's wife."

"Oh my God, there's probably smoke coming out of my ancestral grave."

"No, no, I have to brag to the folks when I go home tonight. I am working for the general's wife."

Chen Yousheng, who was helping the Chen Wang family sell steamed buns, saw everyone talking about Bai Taotao's identity. Chen Yousheng immediately added: "But let me tell you, my third sister-in-law did not get her current family fortune because of my third brother. She did it all by herself. Before my third brother was a general, before he came back, my third sister-in-law opened this workshop. My third brother is great, but my third sister-in-law is even more powerful."

"If you want to enjoy the good treatment that my third sister-in-law has given you, just do good things for my third sister-in-law. It's best not to have any evil intentions."

Speaking of Bai Taotao, Chen Yousheng's face showed pride.

It's strange to say that the third brother became a general, but compared with his current achievements, he admires his third sister-in-law more.

His third sister-in-law came out of there alone with a big belly, and she went from selling braised meat to where she is today step by step.

Although he has been in the academy and has only two days of rest time in a month, he knows that his third sister-in-law has suffered a lot.

My sister-in-law, my mother, and my father always say that it is not easy for the third sister-in-law, and it is even more difficult to get to where I am now.

Bai Taotao was unaware of what happened at noon at the entrance of the workshop, but if the words of Yousheng, Zhao Laosan and Chen Youzhou could make the workers work more attentively, she would be happy to see the results. On the first day, all the two hundred buns made by Chen Wang were sold out in a short time. There were still many workers who wanted to buy but could not buy them. In the end, they could only eat the cold, hard and thick pancakes they brought from home.

However, in order to buy hot big buns the next day, everyone said hello to Chen Wang early and asked them to make more tomorrow.

In order to make more buns the next day, after selling the buns and returning home, Chen Wang asked Chen Defu and Chen Yousheng to help them knead the dough, rise the dough, and prepare the fillings.

Chen Yousheng's New Year's holiday is quite long, and he has to wait until February to return to the academy.

It just so happens that I can help with business at home for the better part of a month.

The next day, after Mrs. Chen Wang had prepared all the steamed buns, several handfuls of cow dung and eggs suddenly fell from the sky in the yard.

Fortunately, since it is winter, in order to keep the buns warm, when Chen Wang sells the buns, they will cover them with two layers of clean cloth, and then put a clean quilt on top of the cloth.

When the cow dung eggs fell from the sky, they just landed on the quilt. The Chen and Wang family quickly brought the buns back to the eaves, then took the quilt away and cleaned up the cow dung eggs.

But after cleaning up the cow dung and eggs, when Chen Yousheng ran out to look for people, there was no one there.

"How is it? Have you seen who did it?" Chen Defu asked.

Chen Yousheng shook his head, "I'm not watching. Let's go sell the buns first. We can't keep the workers waiting for too long."

"God damn it, who is this bastard who is so shameless? Don't let me know, if you want me to know, I have to tear her apart." Chen Wang cursed angrily while carrying Baozi back to the cart. .

But what Chen Wang didn't know was that at this time, someone was already selling buns at the door of the workshop.

The workers still looked confused after leaving work.

"Hey, why is it that the lady selling buns today is not the lady from yesterday?"

"Baozi Baozi, absolutely fresh and hot buns." When Chen Liu saw the workers leaving work, she immediately started shouting.

"Thick-wheat steamed buns and vegetarian steamed buns cost one penny each. Two white-flour steamed buns cost three cents, and wild vegetable and meat buns cost two cents each. The steamed buns are absolutely fresh and hot."

When she shouted, the workers who were waiting for Chen Wang's steamed buns started talking again.

"This lady's buns are much cheaper than the buns sold by the lady yesterday. How about we try her buns today and see if they taste good?"

"If you want to try it, you can try it. I have already made an appointment with the lady yesterday for four large meat buns. The bacon stuffing in the buns she made is something I ate yesterday. I still want to eat it."

"Yes, the buns made by the auntie do taste good."

Chen Liu on the side didn’t expect that most of the workers were still waiting for Chen Wang’s steamed buns, so she rolled her eyes and started shouting again:

"Hot steamed buns, thick-wheat steamed buns and vegetarian steamed buns cost a penny each. White-flour steamed buns cost three cents for two, and wild vegetable and meat buns cost two cents each. The steamed buns are absolutely fresh and hot. The steamed buns are definitely made with the freshest pork. It’s not like some people use stale meat to fool everyone.”
