Chapter 19: Enthusiastic Villagers
Cai Xucun.
Ren Hao stretched himself lazily, feeling refreshed. He looked at the pale sky rising in the horizon, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly. He felt refreshed.
It has been more than half a month since I traveled to this world.
He also changed from a poor man who could not even eat wild vegetables to a small upstart with a net worth of fifty taels.
There isn’t much Shenbao left to sell, so it can only be considered a business that is better than nothing.
Now his focus is shifting to papermaking.
Arriving at the room, Ren Hao took out a few drawings, rolled them up, and strolled to Yang Si's house.
At this time, Yang Si had already gotten up to work.
"Uncle Four, this is the construction drawing, take a look." Ren Hao handed over the drawing.
"I can't read." Yang Si scratched his head, then touched the paper with envy on his face: "This paper is not cheap."
"Let me tell you about it." Ren Hao was not surprised. In the past, Yang Si relied on his experience to carry out construction. Why would he need any drawings?
He patiently sat down and explained to Yang Si for a long time until Yang Si understood it.
"Why did you build such a big house?" Yang Si was a little surprised.
The house drawn on the blueprint is almost half the size of the land.
Not to mention how much bamboo and wood would be needed to build such a big house, it would probably take a long time to build.
This is not an ordinary house. The money spent on its construction is probably an astronomical figure!
"Just lead the men to build it." Ren Hao waved his hand.
Then he took out a heavy small bag, which contained half a bag of copper coins.
"Here are one hundred copper coins as an advance payment for your wages. The house I live in is also being built over there. Build my house first, and then the big house later. There will be no problem as long as the construction follows the drawings." Ren Hao said.
"Okay, I'll go find someone right away." Yang Si held the purse tightly in his hand, grinning from ear to ear as he looked at the copper coins inside.
After talking with Yang Si, Ren Hao returned to Xu Hu's house.
Xu Hu had also gotten up and was drying the paper he had copied earlier.
After touching the quality of the paper, Ren Hao was still a little dissatisfied. After all, the technical means were not up to standard, and even the drying time was not enough. In his previous life, no one would be willing to buy such rough paper even for wiping butts, but in this world it has become a hot commodity.
The paper produced over the past two days totaled more than 500 sheets, which cost another 50 to 60 taels of silver.
At this time, it was noon, and the little girl Qian'er came out and said, "Master, the meal is ready, you can eat now."
"Let's eat!" Ren Hao invited Xu Hu into the house.
Inside the room, on the wooden table, there was a pot of fried meat with wild vegetables and a pot of rice.
As he ate the delicious food, Xu Hu's face was filled with joy, and he became more and more grateful to Ren Hao. Not only did he have three meals a day, but every meal had meat and vegetables. He had never dared to imagine such a life before.
The little girl Qian'er was also very diligent. When she saw someone had finished their meal, she would quickly stand up and serve them some rice.
After dinner, the little girl was not idle either. She washed the pots and dishes and took on a lot of housework.
Looking at the two warm families, Ren Hao was also quite touched. Who could have thought that he was still a poor guy with nothing more than half a month ago?
Just then, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside.
When Ren Hao walked out and took a look, he was shocked!
At this moment, half of the village’s people, about sixty or seventy in number, both men and women, were gathered at the door, whispering to each other and looking around.
Seeing Ren Hao coming out, they couldn't help but rush to the door.
"What are you doing? Rebellion!" Even Ren Hao, who was quite courageous, couldn't help but feel a little scared. Could it be that all of them were called by Ren Tiesan? If these people rushed over together, he would be trampled into mud in an instant.
"Ren Hao, they all want to work with you." Yang Si squeezed through the crowd, wiping his sweat and said.
Ren Hao couldn't help but be stunned. He really underestimated the temptation of two copper coins a day. So many people suddenly came.
On the other hand, ancient Han was indeed too poor, and the common people were hungry and cold. Two copper coins could at least buy some bran to fill their stomachs so that they didn't have to eat wild vegetables all day.
"Didn't they say only twenty were needed? Why are there so many people coming here at once?" Ren Hao asked.
Yang Si smiled bitterly: "I just said one sentence, and these people insisted on following me. Look, there are more people coming behind me..."
Ren Hao glanced behind him and saw many people coming over.
"I'm really drunk..." Ren Hao sighed. He wanted to drive these people away, but this was too offensive.
Thinking of this, Ren Hao asked Qian'er to bring a stool, and he stood on the stool, stretched out his hands and waved.
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Hearing Ren Hao's voice, a man said, "Ren Hao, can I really give you two copper coins for a day's work? Is this true?"
"Do you have so much money?"
"How much money did your ancestors leave for you?"
A woman also spoke up: "Ren Hao, do you think I can do it? I can do the job, too!"
"I want me too!"
There was a sudden commotion at the door of Xu Hu's house, and everyone started asking questions.
"Silence!" Ren Hao raised his hand to suppress it, then said loudly with a stern face: "If you want to work, shut up. If you make trouble again, we will let you go!"
Suddenly, there was silence in front of Xu Hu's house.
Xu Hu hid inside the house, leaning on the window and looking outside. He couldn't help but wipe off a cold sweat. Just now he almost thought that these people were here to cause trouble for Ren Hao. Wouldn't they tear down his house?
"My fellow villagers!" Ren Hao thought of a word that seemed to describe the villagers.
"Let me first say that I do need some people to work for me, and two copper coins a day is absolutely true!"
"But we won't need too many people for now, and we don't need women..."
As soon as he finished speaking, several women shouted, "Why? I can do it, too! I'm strong enough!"
"I can do that too! I won't give you any less work!"
"Ren Hao, I can ask for less, just let me do it! Let me do it!" Several sturdy women chattered incessantly.
"That won't do! I definitely can't let you do that!" Ren Hao glanced at her.
"You don't have to worry. You just don't have to do the work now. I promise that within two months, you will all have work to do, and you can even earn more money by then!"
"What kind of work?"
"Are you trying to fool us?" the women persisted.
"No, absolutely not! Within two months, I will make sure you all have work to do and can earn money!" Ren Hao explained again.
After finally calming down the group of women, Ren Hao looked at more men and said, "We don't need many people for now. In view of everyone's enthusiasm, I will choose 30 people. After half a month, I will need more people, and the remaining people will come then!"
"In order to reassure everyone, I will give each person I choose two copper coins as advance wages. The rest of the wages will be paid once a day. You don't have to worry about me delaying wages!"
"Choose me! Choose me!" The men rushed in enthusiastically.
