Chapter 175 The idea of buying someone
Everyone around was shocked.
"This Shen family is really not human!"
Someone interrupted, "You can't say that. Xiao Xia's last name is also Shen."
"Xiao Xia is a member of the Song family now."
"Yeah."
"No wonder they don't let us pour it out, there must be something fishy going on!"
Shen Xia looked at the stone that rolled to his feet: "This is the first time, so forget it. If it happens again, you won't have to support it, and the person who guaranteed you won't have to support it either." Shen Xia looked at Shen's mother and said loudly.
Someone nearby laughed and said, "Who guaranteed this for the Shen family? How unlucky!"
In fact, the person who provided the guarantor also thought that after all, this was Shen Xia's biological mother, and even if she broke bones, she would still have tendons. Maybe after a while, Shen Xia would not be angry anymore, and by then he could build a good relationship with Shen's mother in advance.
Wouldn't it mean that I can give priority to good things?
Then, he emptied out the other backpacks and found that they were all filled with stones. Looking at this small pile of stones, it must have weighed at least ten pounds!
Shen Xia was really amused by their stupidity.
Shen Xia smiled at them and said loudly, "I know how many silkworm eggs I give you and how many cocoons you can get. Don't try to be clever with me."
"I understand. We will never be like him." A villager said loudly.
"Yes, that's it."
"We are not so heartless!"
"That's right. Xiao Xia helped us make money. We are all very grateful."
Everyone expressed their opinions, and the three people from the Shen family became the target of public criticism.
Shen Xia was writing content before and didn't pay attention. Only now did she realize that the number of people queuing has not decreased. Why are there still so many people standing next to them!
Aren’t you going back after handing it in?
Shen Xia looked at Aunt Yang and the others beside her: "Aunt Yang, why haven't you gone home yet? It's so hot."
Aunt Yang smiled and said, "I thought I'd ask you when I can get the silkworm eggs again after you're done with your work."
Shen Xia listened and looked at the people next to him: "Is everyone here for this reason?"
The people around him nodded, "Yes."
Having tasted the sweetness, they will definitely want to raise more, even if it is not as expensive as the first time.
But this time, everyone paid about 100 kilograms.
Thirty-five wen per catty, which is three taels and five cents of silver, is just over a month?
In the past, this would have been something that we would never have dared to think about.
Of course you have to raise it as soon as possible, otherwise who can you cry to when it’s too late and it’s gone?
Shen Xia thought for a moment and told everyone: "Those who have paid can go back! No need to wait, there is a notice board on the front wall of our new house. If you need it in the future, I will write it on the notice board and everyone can see it."
"Is it not needed now?" someone asked curiously.
Shen Xia explained: "Silkworm eggs are not always available, just like pregnancy, it takes ten months to conceive, you can't give birth to one every month!"
"Ha ha--"
Shen Xia's humorous explanation made everyone laugh.
"Oh, okay," everyone left after hearing this.
Seeing that the number of people has been reduced by more than half, I feel much more comfortable.
It’s hot just looking at so many people!
Shen Xia looked around and realized it was already noon. There was nothing she could do but to finish the harvest and have lunch later.
Shen Xia saw Chen Fang from behind.
When the eggs were laid before, it should have been the eldest and second brothers' queue, so I didn't see it.
It seems that Chen Fang is not as aggressive as before, and her appearance seems less fierce than before?
Is this because he is nourished by love, or because he has no support from his brothers from his mother's family?
But this hasn’t happened yet.
If I remember correctly!
Aunt Zhou and her husband were here just now, right?
Doesn’t it feel weird?
The same goes for Aunt Zhou. Her husband has been cheating on her for so long, but she didn't even notice.
Shen Xia looked at the deed in her hand. The key point was that the guarantor was Aunt Zhou's family.
hehe--
Shen Xia filled in the form without changing her attitude, wrote down the amount, and handed it to her.
She then took it to the woman next door to get the money.
We all endured together, in the middle,
Song Jin came over and whispered to Shen Xia: "Xia Xia, go back and eat something."
Shen smiled and said, "No need, come on everyone, we'll be done in a little while."
At first Shen Xia thought that there were not many people left, so she wondered if she should pick a few watermelons for everyone to eat first. But then she thought better of it.
The wall hasn't been repaired yet, so it's better not to let everyone know what those things are too early.
It was around one in the afternoon when I finally finished writing everything.
After everyone left.
Zhao Xue handed the remaining deeds in her hand to Shen Xia, seeing that there were still about ten families that had not handed them in.
I looked at the names and found that they were all from the same village. It’s okay, they must have seen that there were too many people so they didn’t come to call them.
There was another person named Wu Fan from another village. He seemed to have come from my uncle's village to work.
He is the only one from another village who hasn’t paid. I’ll ask him later.
We have harvested almost 1,000 kilograms so far, my God!
Except for the room where Song Jiang slept, the other two rooms were full.
My eldest brother had made a shelf before, more than one meter off the ground, just because he was afraid it would get damp.
There was no one here at noon because the sorghum in the middle had been harvested and there were many people working on the construction site. There was only a gap next to the main courtyard for entry, so it was easy to see who came in.
Everyone went back with peace of mind.
Only then did Shen Xia remember.
It’s over. Everyone is helping over there, and lunch has to be prepared now.
Forgot to arrange this.
It seems that my house is too big now, and I have to hire some servants. Otherwise, I have to do everything myself, which will be so tiring!
And why do you think of buying people instead of hiring them?
Because it is a family matter, it is best to buy it from someone who can use it with confidence.
As for adding a factory, you can hire people to do so.
When I got home, I was surprised to find the aroma of vegetables in the yard.
Arriving at the dining room, I looked at the food that had already been prepared on the table.
Two uncles were waiting nearby.
Needless to say, it must have been done by my uncle.
Zhao Xue smiled and said, "Dad, uncle, you guys are really awesome."
Song's mother also smiled and said, "That's right, luckily my two brothers have prepared it. Otherwise, I would have to cook now."
Everyone looked at the food on the table, washed their hands happily, and then sat down to eat together.
Although this is a round table for ten people, everyone eats at the same table.
It's quite suitable for twelve people to sit without being crowded.
After dinner, Zhao Xue and Zhao Xin washed the dishes very diligently.
Shen Xia ignored others and went back to sleep. She had the habit of taking a nap.
When I woke up in the afternoon, I had already decided that the old house would not be able to accommodate my work, so I might as well build a few large factories next door.
Anyway, time is fast in a large factory and there is no fence in the middle, so it's a good time to take advantage of it now because the workers who are doing the early stages of the work are running out of work.
The big pond in the yard has been almost dug out.
At most it will be done in a few days.
