Chapter 331 Core Technology and Formula: Hand it over to our own people
The village chief rushed back.
We're not going to discuss it, we're going to notify them!
The sound of the gong rang out again in the village. This time, it wasn't that every household was receiving money, but rather that a new village chief was being appointed.
In Wangyue Village, the village chief is Zhao Chen, the eldest son of the Zhao family.
Zhao Chen was completely bewildered. He had just finished running the bus and horse-drawn carriage today, and his father had elevated his status upon his return.
However, his father was still in his prime and not old enough to have to step down and give way to a more capable person.
Zhao Chen was somewhat reluctant, after all, being the village chief only cost five hundred coins a month, which was more suitable for his old man.
He was Lin Xi's personal groom and also managed the village's bus convoy.
Even if I don't earn much, I can easily make two or three taels a month.
He had no desire to take on the village chief's job: "Dad, what are you doing? I won't do it!"
The village chief stared at the crowd below with his smile unchanged, but he leaned slightly closer and squeezed out a fatherly authority through his teeth: "I advise you not to offend me at this time, or I'll beat you up."
After speaking, he smiled and nodded again at the crowd below.
"Hmph, go ahead and cut it, I'm not doing it."
Zhao Chen flicked his sleeves, refusing to do anything.
If the village chief hadn't been afraid of things going wrong and others finding out that he had taken his job, he wouldn't have rushed back to arrange things so hastily.
He still had to rush back to the Lin family to sign the employment contract.
He quickly pulled his eldest son, who was known for his sabotage, to a corner.
He leaned close to Zhao Chen's ear and explained, "To tell you the truth, your father was hired by the eldest branch of the Lin family to be the Lin family's head butler!"
Six taels of silver a month, eight sets of new clothes for all four seasons—you have to be the village chief, whether you like it or not.
Don't you dare hold me back or become a burden; I'm in a hurry to get back and sign the employment contract!
In their forties, they were at the prime of their lives, a time for hard work and striving.
He needs little sleep, is full of energy, and can't sit still—isn't this the perfect job tailor-made for him?
Zhao Chen was taken aback: "How much?!"
The village chief made a "666" gesture with both hands, and his smug little expression made Zhao Chen feel a surge of excitement!
Zhao Chen couldn't help but exclaim, "Dad, you've really made something of yourself!"
The village chief slapped Zhao Chen on the head: "What are you saying!"
You should do a good job as village chief, learn how to deal with people, and when I retire, I will definitely recommend you to the master and mistress first to be the housekeeper!
The position of steward is a family business, passed down through generations, and he wanted his son to inherit it!
This village chief truly lives up to his title; his ability to make empty promises is second nature to him.
Zhao Chen had no reason to refuse; he immediately nodded and led the villagers to do village affairs, taking over on the spot without hesitation.
The village chief was quite satisfied with his eldest son's "pragmatism".
He hurried home to pack two changes of clothes, as he was preparing to officially start work today.
When Aunt Zhao saw her husband return, she was about to greet him when he ran straight into the room to collect the clothes.
Startled, she quickly ran back to her room, asking, "Old man, what's wrong with you?"
"Oh dear, there's no time to explain, old woman. I'm going to work for the Lin family. You don't need to worry about food and lodging there. I'll bring back six taels of silver every month and give it to you without missing a single penny!"
The village chief came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
In the blink of an eye, the old man was out of sight.
Aunt Zhao was taken aback.
How much? Six ounces!
The two daughters-in-law are filial, the two sons are hardworking, and the old man's wife is still working at the Lin family and doesn't come home, but the monthly allowance is sent back on time.
No need to take care of your spouse, no need to cook for your husband!
It feels like all of these are wonderful things that others would envy!
Joy, ecstatic joy!
At this moment, Aunt Zhao's two daughters-in-law carried back two basins of clothes that had been washed clean by the river in a laundry tub.
Following their mother-in-law's gaze, there was nothing there.
"Mom, what are you laughing at standing at the door!"
Upon hearing her eldest daughter-in-law's voice, Aunt Zhao's smile vanished, and she quickly wiped away the drool that had flowed from her excitement.
"Daughters-in-law, tomorrow I'll take you two to the county town. Tell me what you want to buy, and I'll pay!"
The two daughters-in-law exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise.
The eldest daughter-in-law reacted quickly, supporting Aunt Zhao's arm: "Mother, what's wrong? Why are you saying you need to spend money out of the blue? Is it some kind of windfall?"
Before she could finish speaking, her second daughter-in-law nodded in agreement: "That's right, that's right! Mother usually has to be very careful with every penny she has. Could it be that something good has happened?!"
Aunt Zhao was all smiles.
That would be an incredibly joyous occasion!
Meanwhile, Uncle Zhao, who was creating this joyous occasion, had already gone to the Lin family and obtained his employment contract.
With the contract in hand, the huge weight that had been hanging over his heart finally lifted.
Du Hao and his group arrived, and he quickly helped write the indenture.
It took an hour to finally finish.
Gao Mengli came out of the inn, wanting to say a few words to everyone.
But among these ten-foot-tall men, she felt a bit too short to stand in front.
When Ah Li noticed that Gao Mengli was occasionally tiptoeing, he immediately understood, grabbed Gao Mengli's arm, and with a leap, sent Gao Mengli to the wall of the inn.
Then Ah Li quickly jumped down and grinned at Gao Mengli.
Sister-in-law, please don't be so polite!
Gao Mengli felt her body lighten, the scene changed, and she found herself inexplicably standing on the top of the wall.
Looking at the narrow wall that could only fit half a foot, her legs trembled slightly.
Ah Li, I'm so grateful for your kindness—
Although she shouldn't be here, it has to be said that from her vantage point, she could see everyone.
So he tried to control his trembling legs and pressed his palms down in front of everyone.
"Du Hao, today you will lead the heroes of the Green Forest to learn about the affairs of the seedling cultivation shed with me. Those who learn quickly will go to the villages of Pingyao tomorrow to begin cultivating seedlings."
Those who learn slowly don't need to rush. It will take a few more days for Pingding County to set up the cultivation sheds. You can learn slowly and then go to Pingding County to start arranging the seedling affairs in that county.
As for Mengze, you will begin learning the recipes for candy filling starter and sausages from Linxi today, and also take care of the daily operations of the inn.
Du Hao, you don't need to rush. After this batch of seedlings is cultivated, you can come back and take over the cured meat workshop, as well as make semi-finished products for restaurants in the two counties every day and deliver them.
As for personnel arrangements, you should discuss that with Butler Zhao.
"Yes, we will not fail in our mission!"
After Gao Mengli finished speaking, everyone below nodded in unison in agreement.
Seeing that everything was arranged, Gao Mengli quickly waved to everyone: "Alright, that's how it is, everyone can go now."
Once everyone had their tasks assigned, they quickly went to begin.
Three taels of silver a month—that's a lucrative job, and no one would be so ungrateful as to slack off.
After Gao Mengli finished speaking, A Li jumped onto the wall and brought Gao Mengli down.
Gao Mengli glared at A Li, feigning anger: "Little girl, thank you so much."
Ah Li smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, we're family, don't be so polite!"
Gao Mengli: "..."
