Chapter 31 Paying Salary

A few days later, the corn in the warehouse was almost threshed, and some people were diverted to do other things.

As for Gu Lichun, the seeds he planted have already germinated.In the past few days, after Zhao Gao was transferred to the pig farm, he didn't struggle to change jobs like Li Kuan did every day, but said that he was a novice and was afraid that he would not be able to handle it, so he needed a helper, and he asked Gu Lichun to go by name.

Sister Bai was worrying about how to arrange Gu Lichun, but when she heard Zhao Gao's request, she immediately agreed.

However, when Tao Mei heard that Gu Lichun was going to the pig farm, she disapproved a little: "The work in the pig farm is not easy, it smells bad and the work is heavy, and the pig farm in our sub-farm is also very evil. In winter, a batch of pigs will always die, and the other branches joked about us saying that if we eat pork in advance, the pigs are thin and tall, and they will die of illness, who would like to eat in advance?"

Gu Lichun said: "My mother raised pigs before, so I understand a little bit. It's okay, I'll try it out. I'm a temporary worker, and I don't have the right to ask for it."

Tao Mei thinks about it too, let alone Gu Lichun, isn't a family worker like her doing something arranged by the factory?There has been no sign of becoming a regular.

So before the work in the warehouse was finished, Gu Lichun went to the pig farm, which made the elder sisters and aunts feel a little bit reluctant. This guy is so sweet, sweet-mouthed and hard-working. The key is that he is good-looking.

Gu Lichun went to the pig farm with a face full of reluctance, Zhao Gao was happy, and on the surface he comforted him hypocritically.

The pig farm is very large, with two yards at the front and back. In the dilapidated yard in front, there are a group of black people with bad ingredients. They are mainly responsible for cleaning the pigsty, picking pig manure, and doing some dirty work. of.

The backyard is temporarily owned by Executive Zhao, but he thinks it smells so bad that he basically doesn't live here.

Zhao Gao’s job is mainly to supervise the work of these people, record the growth of the pigs, and report to the veterinarian if any pigs are sick. He also feeds the pigs, and sometimes he has to learn the same knowledge about raising pigs. When the sows give birth, they have to watch all night with.It's messy and dirty, and it doesn't sound good to say it. Anyway, few young people are willing to do this.

Now that Gu Lichun came, Zhao Gao was ready to hand over his work to him.

Although Gu Lichun's face was full of displeasure every time, he did a good job.

Zhao Gao's attitude towards him improved slightly, and it was rare for him to be generous. He took out three pieces of pig's trotters from his home and said that he would treat Gu Lichun to dinner.

The backyard is quite large and there are many vacant rooms. Not only is there a place to live, but there is even a kitchen with several large pots in it, which should be used to cook pigs for food.You can also cook, and all the firewood in the house is ready-made.

Gu Lichun cleaned up one of the pots and stoves by himself. He first washed the pig's trotters lightly, then burned the hair on the pig's trotters with fire, and then went out for a trip. He came back half an hour later and brought back a bag of things. At a high level, the guy is quite complete, soy sauce, onion, ginger, garlic, star anise, cinnamon, peanuts, soybeans, and a little wine.

Put the water into the pot and wait for the water to boil to remove the foam.Then put in the star anise, cinnamon and other ingredients, throw in the soybeans first, and throw in the peanuts later.Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer over low heat.

Before the pig's trotters were stewed, Wu Pang came. His nose was as sharp as a dog's, and he smelled the fragrance before he even entered the door.

Gu Lichun promised to give him a pig's trotter to eat, and Wu Pang laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth. Hearing that the pig's trotter was brought by Zhao Gao, he also had a good look at him.

Gu Lichun happened to have something to ask Wu Pang, so he just said it by the way.

"Wu Fatty, are you familiar with the children on our farm?"

Wu Fat said: "I am very familiar with the dogs on the farm."

Gu Lichun nodded: "That's good, I will give you a task now, I will give you 1 yuan, you go and let these children help me collect soybean leaves, orange peels, peanut shells, corn stalks, and various wild vegetables and weed seeds , as much as you want. You can set the reward as you like, and you can give me candy or change. When you run out of money, you can ask me for it.” The adults on the farm all have jobs, and the children are free, anyway, this job is not heavy.

Wu Fatty nodded in agreement, but Zhao Gao said with a puzzled look on his face, "Why are you collecting these, to make a fire? There is plenty of firewood."

Gu Lichun pointed to the pigs in the pigsty, and said: "Look at these thin pigs, it is probably because they are not willing to feed them with food, and there are not many leftovers in the cafeteria. Who is willing to give up leftovers these days? Other seasons can Eat pig grass, what to feed in winter? Hay is not nutritious enough, we have to make pig feed ourselves.”

Zhao Gao was still puzzled: "Forget about bean leaves, but can pigs eat peanut shells and orange peels?"

Gu Lichun said firmly: "Grind these up, mix them with leftovers, and eat them deliciously."

Zhao Gao was dubious, but he didn't care anyway.He was going to take Gu Lichun with him for a few more days, so he could find a chance to get away quickly.

An hour later, the three of them got together, and each of them was full of greasy food.Especially Wu Pang, who kept eating with his head down, without even raising his head.

After this meal, everyone's relationship has become closer. After all, they are all young people, and the conflicts are small conflicts. Some things are just open.Zhao Gao thought that he would still work with Gu Lichun in the future. This man worked hard and had good skills, and he didn't have any deep hatred with him. He wanted to reconcile with Gu Lichun.

Gu Lichun didn't hold it up, and took advantage of the situation to receive the signal from the other party.Of course, it is unrealistic for the two to become good friends right away, but at least the two of them no longer always dislike each other like before, and can be just ordinary friends.

Wu Pang's work efficiency is quite high. In just one and a half days, the yard was full of bean leaves, corn stalks, peanut shells, and orange peels, but a few large baskets were also delivered.Wild vegetables and weed seeds are even more diverse, such as dandelion, bitter herbs and some seeds that Gu Lichun can't name, he will not refuse them all.

Most of the people who came to send them off were children, big and small, gathered in the yard, chirping, like a flock of sparrows, and Li Qingqing, the girl, also came.

As for remuneration, some children asked for money directly, and some asked for sugar.What the other party wants, what Wu Pang gives, one candy for a small basket, two for a large basket, of course the candy is cheap fruit candy.The money is one penny and ten small baskets. No wonder those blood-sucking capitalists like to hire child labor, child labor is cheap.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Gu Lichun also taught these children an ideological lesson: "Students, you are contributing to socialist agriculture. You are all successors of communism." Let's get real.

"This pig is from our fifth farm. It has been raised well. Let's eat meat together during the Chinese New Year."

The children got excited when they heard about eating meat, and shouted in unison: "Eat meat during the Chinese New Year, ouch."

It was so loud that it startled the pigs in the pigsty.

The children happily left with candy and pocket money, and asked before leaving, can they still collect these in the future?

Gu Lichun said that as long as he is still there, he will keep accepting him.Everyone left in peace.

As soon as the children left, Gu Lichun and Wu Pang moved the things to the empty house in the yard together. After that, he went to Zhao Gao to ask where there was a shredder.Zhao Gao said that there was a split, so he went to borrow it.

Borrowing a pulverizer, Gu Lichun began to crush these things one by one, and stored them in different categories. When adding them, the proportions were different.He has to record it to see which proportion of feed pigs like to eat, and the effect is different.

it is good.

After a few days of busy work, Gu Lichun received a registered letter from the city. He was a little excited, thinking that there was news about the submission, but it turned out that it was from his aunt, which was not bad.

In the letter, my aunt greeted a few words first, and then was happy for him, asking him to work hard and strive to become a full-time member as soon as possible.

As soon as the topic is changed below, we will talk about the most important issue.In order to avoid trouble, she wrote very cryptically, saying that sending things was too expensive, so she just asked a friend to help deliver them to her.His friend was a driver, and he told him the man's name and phone number.

Gu Lichun wrote down this person's name and phone number in his small notebook, these are all contacts.He calculated the time, the farm would have two days off at the end of the month, and he could complete the deal on the way home.

After lunch, Gu Lichun went to the post office and called the number.

The phone was connected quickly, and Gu Lichun politely reported his family name: "Hello, are you brother Xiao? I am a relative of Gu Hongyu. I have some things at home that I want to bring to her. When is it convenient for you?"

The other party immediately understood, and replied: "I have to go to the city every few days to see when it is convenient for you."

Gu Lichun set the time at the end of the month, and the transaction was fixed in the woods south of Honghe Farm. The driver knew the area well, and he knew where it was. After the two parties finalized the time and fixed point, they hung up the phone.

Gu Lichun had only been in the pig farm for about ten days, and Zhao Gao noticed the changes in the pigs. They became more energetic, loved to eat, and seemed to have gained a little weight.This made Zhao Gao admire Gu Lichun even more.Through these days of getting along, the friendship between the two has also warmed up.

Now there are six people in the dormitory, completely divided into two factions, three of them are in one faction; Li Kuan, Wang Xiao, and Bai Chang are in three factions.Bai Chang and Wang Xiao wanted to win over Zhao Gao, but Zhao Gao and Li Kuan were incompatible, they could only choose one, and no accident, the two chose Li Kuan.Because Li Kuan's family background was much stronger than Zhao Gao's. Zhao Gao's father was a butcher, a rough man among rough people, with a simple mind, well-developed limbs, and a strong temper.

Regarding the choice of the other two, Zhao Gao is not sad at all, the more he hangs out with Gu Lichun, the more benefits he feels.Gu Lichun is a generous person with a cold face and a warm heart. He does not eat alone. Not only will he not encourage his friends to do bad things, but he will also remind you when your friends are stupid.And he is good at cooking, they have eaten three delicious meals in ten days.Stewed trotters, fat intestines, big bone soup noodles, and fruit after the meal.

That guy Wu Pang went to the pig farm whenever he was free, worked when he had work, and ate delicious food whenever he could.

Zhao Gao is really speechless, this guy can give up his future and fame just for food.

Looking forward to, looking forward to, finally to the end of the month.

Gu Lichun finally received his wages. After deducting the food stamps, there was still 13 yuan left, while Wu received 25 yuan, twice as much. This is the difference between a regular worker and a temporary worker.

Everyone will eat something delicious when they are paid, and the canteen will also improve the food.

Gu Lichun ordered a portion of braised pork and twenty steamed buns with mixed noodles, and prepared to take them home for his younger siblings to eat.This guy Wu Fat made twenty meat buns.

When returning to the dormitory, Zhao Gao looked at the two of them in surprise, and Gu Lichun explained: "I want my family to taste the food in our cafeteria."

Wu Fatty left ten buns for himself to eat, and gave the other ten to Gu Lichun.

Gu Lichun declined, ten meat buns, not one.

Wu Pang said a little embarrassedly: "Well, Brother Gu, I didn't have enough of the tempeh you brought last time, can you ask your mother to get me two more bottles. This meat bun is a thank you gift for you .”

Gu Lichun agreed after thinking for a while, "Okay, I'll ask my mother to get you some more, do you like spicy or slightly spicy?"

"spicy."

Gu Lichun not only bought food from the cafeteria to take home, but also bought a lot of snacks and fruits from the canteen.All the unused food stamps for this month have been used up.

Seeing him carrying big and small bags back to the dormitory, Li Kuan mocked, "That's right, use up the food stamps quickly, and you'll have to leave next month anyway."

Gu Lichun smiled and said: "I haven't gotten out, how about you get out and I'll see."

Zhao Gao and Wu Fatty booed: "Yes, come and get lost."

Li Kuan stared angrily with a livid face.

While working on the pig farm, Gu Lichun asked Zhao Gao if he could buy cotton on the farm.

Zhao Gao asked him why he bought cotton, Gu Lichun said: "Winter is coming soon, there are many siblings in the family, and there are not enough quilts and cotton clothes."

Zhao Gao's heart moved, and he suddenly asked: "There are new ones, but they are expensive. Do you want the half-worn ones?" His cotton clothes are all half-worn, and he got tired of wearing them long ago, but his mother said they could still be worn, so why not? Make him a new one.

If he sells the old one, can't he get a new one?

Gu Lichun asked about the price, and it was indeed much cheaper than the new one.

Gu Lichun resolutely agreed, and Zhao Gao was so happy that he skipped work in the afternoon and went back to get the cotton-padded jacket and quilt.

There are three cotton quilts in total, which were issued by the farm. They are old but a bit worn, but the quality is quite good, as are the four cotton jackets, which are quite thick to the touch.Gu Lichun didn't know what price to give, so he asked the other party to bid, but Zhao Gao hadn't sold it before, so he asked Gu Lichun to bid.

Gu Lichun smiled helplessly, so he had to take out ten yuan and give it to him: "I have a total of 13 yuan, and I will leave three yuan and give it to you. If it is not enough, I will give it to me when I pay my salary next month."

Zhao Gao hurriedly said, enough is enough.

Both parties feel that they have taken advantage of it, and everyone is happy.

It was a bit troublesome to bring so many things home, so Wu Pang took the initiative to lend Gu Lichun his bicycle.Gu Lichun looked at his bicycle, the handlebars were crooked, the body was rusty, and it rang everywhere except the bell.Regardless of other things, Gu Lichun straightened the handlebars first, and the ride was much smoother.

This bike has been put to great use, the handlebars, the basket, the front bumper, the rear seat, and the places where things can be put are all hung.

Everyone looked at Gu Lichun's full cart, and everyone they knew couldn't help joking: "You have gained a lot." Gu Lichun smiled calmly.

Passing by the gate, Gu Lichun greeted Uncle Lu. Uncle Lu nodded to him lightly, and even praised him: "You can even raise pigs, that's good."

Gu Lichun was happy and hummed a ditty all the way.

After leaving the farm, he rode south for another twenty miles, and arrived at the forest he had agreed with Brother Xiao.

Gu Lichun looked around, and after confirming that there was no one there, he chose a place to put apples and pears. First, he got [-] catties, [-] catties of apples, and [-] catties of pears, all in large bamboo baskets, each fifty catties.

He put away his things, and after waiting for a while, Brother Xiao appeared.
