Traveling through ancient times, I married an ugly brother
Chapter 84 Planting Potatoes
The days passed by, and the Shen family was about to start planting potatoes.
When the potatoes were harvested last time, Shen Changjun made an agreement with the village chief that if any family wanted to grow potatoes, they could come to their house to buy seeds.
For those who bought the seeds, the Shen family will teach them the experience and methods of planting potatoes without reservation, but the harvest is not guaranteed: if it is really impossible to grow or the harvest is not good, the Shen family will not be responsible, and they have to bear the risk of failure.
Potatoes are counted according to bud eyes, and two bud eyes cost a penny, let them decide for themselves.
The village head also conveyed the meaning of the Shen family, but when it came to money, many people flinched and couldn't make up their minds. After all, it was a fresh crop. Although I saw that their Shen family did produce a lot last year, but their own But his eyes are smeared, he has no experience, and he relies on God to reward him with food. Two buds are worth a penny, and the seeds for an acre of land are quite a lot of money.
But there are also those who dare to think and do, they are willing to buy seeds, such as the second uncle Shen's family next door, the village head's family, Erhei's family, and even Grandpa Shen's family, these people are willing to spend money to buy seeds.
Of course, the second uncle and third uncle's family will definitely plant, and their son-in-law and son-in-law's family will also plant it, so I won't say much about it.
In any case, two buds cost a penny, and one potato has four or five buds, which is already the price of cabbage to the Shen family.
While the Shen family was busy farming and teaching others to farm, Zhang Si's lung disease finally recovered after recuperating for nearly a month.
On this day, Zhang Si followed the old man Zhang, and when he saw Shen Changjun coming out of the dining hall, he quickly stepped forward, bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, young master, for saving your life. Zhang Si can't repay you." , the only way to repay the young master is to be an ox or a horse."
Shen Changjun smiled and said: Seriously, you only need to sign an employment contract and a non-disclosure agreement, it doesn't have to be so serious, have you guys eaten yet? "
"I've eaten, thank you, young master, for your concern."
Shen Changjun nodded, and continued: "Take a good rest tonight, and tomorrow we will start making colored glaze."
"Yes, it's all up to the young master." Zhang Si said firmly.
Old man Zhang also followed suit.
Early the next morning, Shen Changjun went out of the room, unexpectedly Uncle Zhang and Zhang Sizheng were standing outside waiting.
He was a little embarrassed, he woke up late, there was nothing he could do, he had already worked hard to adapt to the ancient work and rest time.
He brought Zhang Bo and Zhang Si to the ancestral house, and now the ancestral house has become their processing workshop. No matter what kind of work they do, they do it here, and the tools for making colored glaze are also placed here.
He asked Zhang Si to burn a piece first to see the finished product.
After Zhang Si hurriedly nodded in agreement, he started firing, which was a long process.
The glass made by Zhang Si is white and transparent, similar to white crystal, but the difference is that there are large or small, sinking or floating bubbles in the glass. These bubbles are completely different from those made by the old man and have more vitality. This was completely beyond Shen Changjun's expectations. He did not expect Zhang Si's craftsmanship to be so good.
He hurriedly picked up the small piece of crystal glass and placed it under the sun to watch it. It was unusually dazzling, and it shone with colorful lights under the sun's rays.
"Zhang Si, you really surprised me. You're really good. With your glass-making skills, why should our cosmetics shop be successful, haha!" Shen Changjun was very happy, and he patted Zhang Si's shoulder happily Said.
Shen Changjun hurriedly drew a few more blueprints and asked Zhang Si to make utensils according to the appearance of the blueprints. Zhang Si said that he could try, but he needed some help.
If it's difficult, let him arrange it.
After dinner, the family came to the living room to discuss about participating in making colored glaze.
Shen Changjun was the first to speak: "Recently, everyone must have known that our family is planning to launch new projects, such as the pig pancreas soap that our family is using recently. In addition to products, our family will also invest in making some low-end products for sale in county and prefectural cities.”
The family members have known about pig pancreas for a long time, and they have used it for a while. They feel pretty good and think it can be developed.
Shen Changjun continued: "Our family has recently hired two long-term workers who can make glazed vessels. The young man named Zhang Si makes very good glazed vessels. He needs some people to help him make more and better glazed vessels. , In this case, our personnel will have to be reassigned."
"I'm going to send Shen Wei, Shen Tie, and Shen Hu to him as his helpers. Brother, you can go to the hot pot restaurant tomorrow. Dad, do you think you can come here with this arrangement?" Shen Zhangjun asked.
Father Shen thought for a while: three left, and another came. There are eight of them left, and the staff is a little nervous. If it's only temporary, it's okay, but it's not a long-term solution.
Father Shen said: "Jun'er, I can only hold on for a while. In the past, ten people felt that it was not enough. Now there are only eight people left, so I am a little nervous."
Shen Changjun was silent for a while, and said: "This is only temporary. In fact, my original intention was to hire some new people to open the shop. Father, mother, brothers and sisters-in-law will all withdraw. I have other tasks that I want to arrange for you to do."
"Jun'er, if we don't go, who will look after the store?" Mrs. He couldn't help asking.
Hand over the hotpot restaurant to Shen Zhong, and hand over the Malatang restaurant to Wang Lei. They are all good, loyal and capable, and they can try to manage them. "
The family members were also very relieved of the two people Shen Changjun mentioned, so they nodded.
"Jun'er, I think it's better to buy some people. Our family has too many secrets, and it's always inconvenient to hire people." Father Shen suggested.
Shen Changjun thought about it, it is good to buy some people, but it is not enough to buy people all the time, they will only develop further in the future, and they can't buy people every time, they still have to hire people.
But if you can't be loyal, it will always be a hidden danger. It's better to cultivate a group of your own people and arrange them in the most important places, so you nodded and said, "Okay, then let's go to the dental clinic tomorrow."
After the decision was made, Shen Changjun summoned his servants, except old man Zhang and Zhang Si, a total of 11 people, including two younger brothers and two children.
Shen Changjun said: "It's been a while since you came to Shen's house. During this time, you have performed very well. Recently, we are going to study new projects, so we have to rely on you to support the store. Wang Lei, from tomorrow From the beginning, you are the shopkeeper of the Mala Tang shop, and you are fully responsible for the affairs of the Mala Tang shop."
Wang Lei's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief on his face, he said, "Fifth Young Master, this, how can this be done."
"There's nothing wrong with it, don't you think you can't do it?" After he finished speaking, he thought of something, and after a chuckle, he immediately became serious again.
"Shen Zhong, you are in charge of the hot pot restaurant, and you are the shopkeeper. I know you used to be the shopkeeper, and now you are doing the job of the shopkeeper in the hotpot restaurant, so starting tomorrow, you will be promoted to be the shopkeeper."
Seeing what they wanted to say, Shen Changjun raised his hand to signal.
He said: "Since you have been chosen, it proves that you really have this ability, and it also represents our absolute trust. Others are not bad, but they still need to learn and wait for opportunities. Work hard, the Shen family will never treat hard work and faithful man.
"Yes." A group of people said loudly in unison.
Wang Lei and Shen Zhong no longer hesitated, their expressions became more determined, and they secretly made up their minds that they must work hard and live up to the trust of the master.
Those who were not selected were also excited and made up their minds to work harder. Next time, it will definitely be me.
After Shen Changjun finished his explanation, he told them that tomorrow he would go to the dental store to buy some newcomers and come back, let them take care of each other, and then let them break up.
The next day, when Father Shen and Shen Changjun came to the tooth shop, the steward saw them and immediately greeted them with smiles. They were old acquaintances, and the steward said: "Masters, it's the same as last time, pick a few to go back?" "
Father Shen nodded
"The two masters invite you inside, please invite you inside."
The two of them followed the shopkeeper into the same backyard as last time, this time they were all new faces, and the group of people who came last time had already been bought away.
Shen Changjun looked at the people here, and suddenly asked: "Is there anyone here who can embroider?"
There was silence, everyone lowered their heads and looked at the ground blankly. A few seconds later, when Shen Changjun was about to give up, a burly man came out and said, "Young master, my wife and son can Embroiderer, my son is better at embroidering than his mother, if the young master wants embroiderers, he can buy them."
"Master, we won't go, we want to be with you."
"? What are you talking about? I think they should be a good family. They want a mother. If you work hard, you will have food. If you follow him, he will not make things difficult for you. Maybe you will still have a good life. "
"No, I won't leave. How can Ah Wei and I leave you behind and enjoy wealth by ourselves. We are a family in life, and we will be a family in death."
"Father, mother and I want to be with you."
Shen Changjun looked at the three people in front of him. The man had a beard on his face. It seemed that he hadn't shaved for a few days. It's not easy to control, and the general owner doesn't like it.
The woman looked about 30 years old, and she was holding a little brother in her hand, who looked only twelve or thirteen years old.
Although the clothes on the two were mottled, the fabric was intact. The younger brother's face was not very clean and he couldn't see what he should have looked like. The woman's face looked haggard.
The shopkeeper came over at this time, and said in Shen Changjun's ear: "The three of them and the men next to them were originally servants of the Du family, but some time ago, the Du family encountered some troubles and needed a lot of money. No, the family couldn't afford to support so many servants, so they sold them off, this family didn't stay in Du's house for a long time."
Shen Changjun nodded, sympathizing with these ancient people who couldn't even control their fate.
He looked around the three people. The shopkeeper pointed with his finger just now, and Shen Changjun took a general look. They were all a group of honest-looking people.
It may be that honest people don't know how to drill, so they always suffer the most.
"How many of them are there?" Shen Changjun asked.
"A total of ten people."
While Shen Changjun was asking, those people had already looked towards this side. Although it was just a quick glance, they could still catch the doubt and surprise in their eyes, as well as a little bit of expectation.
Presumably they also think that this family should be a good family.
In ancient times, men were actually the hardest to sell. When most buyers came to buy men, they first considered women and children, then younger brothers, and finally teenagers, and then adult men.
So when Shen Changjun asked about them, wouldn't they be surprised?
When Shen Changjun heard the shopkeeper's count, he nodded and said: "I only want people who are loyal and willing to work hard. If you think you can, stand up. I only give you time to count to 10. If you have better I don't stand in the way of my choice."
As soon as Shen Changjun finished speaking, the burly man just now brought his wife and son to Shen Changjun's side without hesitation.
And the other men around the man also stood up and walked towards him quickly. There was only one of them, his eyes flashed and he hesitated. Said: "Okay, that's all."
As soon as the man heard this, he hurried over and said: "Master, I, and I, I am also willing."
Shen Changjun didn't even look at him, turned around and walked out.
When the potatoes were harvested last time, Shen Changjun made an agreement with the village chief that if any family wanted to grow potatoes, they could come to their house to buy seeds.
For those who bought the seeds, the Shen family will teach them the experience and methods of planting potatoes without reservation, but the harvest is not guaranteed: if it is really impossible to grow or the harvest is not good, the Shen family will not be responsible, and they have to bear the risk of failure.
