The ancient life of a master craftsman

Except for Yunhe who didn't work in the factory originally, this job was a very important job for everyone else.

Although there are a lot of trees in Huaimu Village, the royal family is ordered to cut down a limited amount each year. They cannot make a living by reselling wood, and they can only do some simple carpentry work on weekdays.

It is precisely because the whole village is full of carpenters that the carpenters can't earn a lot of money. At most, they give them hard money. It's not as good as they go out to do small labor and do coolies.

If the family has a few acres of land, once the land tax and small tax are paid, there will be only food rations left, and they have to eat hard to last for a year.

It used to be difficult for their village to talk about daughters-in-law from other villages because they were poor, otherwise there would not be so many bachelors.

Brother Qing's three older brothers and Dodo's two older brothers were all delayed because their families couldn't afford it.

But after they started working in the factory, their life visibly improved. They used to cut two catties of fat meat to eat during the festivals. The whole family just tasted the meat.

But now I can eat it four or five times a month. Those who can’t make a living have to go to the butcher’s house to buy half a catty of meat to eat every two or three days.

Why?

Isn't it because he has money in his hand that he is willing to eat meat.

But most people are still very restrained, especially when the matchmaker cheated on the introduction fee a while ago, they all woke up from their smug state and became honest and responsible.

Save all the money you earn, and don't show your timidity when waiting for major events such as renovating the house and marrying a wife.

They are full of energy, so they expect to work hard, buy a few more acres of land in two years, have two more children, and have to save money for their children's education.

So after he said it, everyone was a little stunned, why did he quit such a good job?

Who in the village didn't squeeze their heads and yearn to go in, and even those who came from other villages had the cheek to ask if they wanted someone, so why did they not go to work?

"Why? With a salary of two thousand dollars a month, we won't have such a good thing when we go out!"

Zhang Bai is not very happy to quit his job. He has already made an appointment for his marriage, and he is trying to save money recently. He just waits for his marriage to be a big one, so that his wife can happily marry in.

It's not just him, everyone thinks like this, 20 yuan a month, and bonuses for good work, and you can save [-] taels of silver in a year, and you can buy a few acres of fertile land or build a house after saving for two years. New home also made.

But they also knew that Li Enbai would definitely not harm them, so there must be some good idea in saying that, Zhang Bo asked with a regretful and curious tone.

Li Enbai took a sip of tea, "The reason is quite simple. When I came here, I had a job. I was short of manpower. I was worried about handing it over to outsiders. Brother Dahe took over the clothing store again, so I want my brothers to help me." .”

He treats everyone like his own brothers, everyone is not stupid, everyone has said it so clearly, if everyone pretends to be confused, the relationship will be broken.

"What kind of work? Why don't you leave it to me? Others are still working as usual. The family has just had a good life. If everyone quits their jobs, the family will not be able to explain it." This is Brother Qing's third brother.

Their family has the most brothers, a total of four. They have never been jealous since they grew up together, and they love their younger brother Qinggeer the most in their hearts. Li Enbai and Yunli take good care of Qinggeer on weekdays.

Even if Li Enbai doesn't get in touch with them, he should do more work for Li Enbai just for Brother Qing, not to mention that Li Enbai really treats them as a family.

"Little brother, don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet." Li Enbai waved his hand to tell them not to worry.

"Actually, I should have discussed this matter with the big guys a long time ago, but I was busy preparing for the exam and didn't have time to plan carefully, so I delayed until now."

He stroked his thoughts, "I will mention it to everyone today, and I will think about it when I go back. After all, it is related to raising a family, so I have to make a careful decision."

"Tell me, we must think about it." Mu Haishan always felt that Li Enbai's eyes were always drifting towards Brother Qing and his brothers.

Still pondering what was going on, Li Enbai said, "This factory should not expand anymore. In the future, there will only be so many people and so much wages. It is possible to eat and clothe warmly, but it is impossible to be rich. Therefore, I want to let Everyone picks up another trade for a living."

"I have three ideas here. One is to open a restaurant. In the beginning, I will pay for the store and recipes, and the profit will be [-]%." Li Enbai is not very clear about the money in his hand now. Anyway, he will throw it into the system if he collects it. , It’s right if you can’t lose it.

"But I have to learn to cook again. It's a hard job. The second is the mobile bookstall. This job is also a tiring job, and you need to travel all over the world." Li Enbai saw it clearly when talking about the mobile bookstall. He glanced at Brother Qing and the four brothers.

"The last one is to do things for the school. It is not profitable to make money, but it is very useful." Li Enbai actually prefers to let Mu Huaishan do this job, but Mu Huaishan is not close to him, and he He is the only son, and he will definitely take over his father's mantle in the future.

Yunhe and Mu Yunshan were also eliminated for the same reason. After thinking about it later, he felt that it would be best to leave this matter to Xue Geer's own brother, Mu Haishan.

"There are some other things, but we will wait until everyone can support themselves. Moreover, one of the important reasons why I hope everyone resigns is that I hope that my elder brothers and younger brothers can come to learn to read and read with me, not Continue to be blind." Li Enbai threw out the bait, but he didn't know if anyone would be willing to take it.

"The above are some of my plans. Think about it, everyone. If you don't want to, I won't force it. After all, this is just a plan. There is no sign of making cakes to satisfy your hunger." Li Enbai did not force everyone to have their own To be the master consciousness.

I just don’t want everyone to be bound by a factory, thinking that two thousand copper coins a month is the best state, but I hope everyone can broaden their horizons and see the outside world before deciding whether they prefer a comforting life of food and clothing, or to fight for it. A better tomorrow.

Yunhe slapped soy sauce from beginning to end, without saying a word, neither persuading everyone to resign, nor opposing Li Enbai's suggestion, because he wanted to follow his brother-in-law to learn to read.

After reading all the characters, he still needs to read a few books. Reading makes people understand, and reading makes people reborn.

He directly stated, "The clothing store has been very stable recently, and Xiao Wu is very responsible. I can learn calligraphy with my brother-in-law when I come back an hour earlier every afternoon."

"Okay, bro, you can figure out what to do in the store." Li Enbai agreed.

The others couldn't make up their minds for a while, Li Enbai said it too lightly, they didn't have a clue in their minds, so they said go home and think about it.

Li Enbai let them go back, but Qing Geer's family and Mu Haishan were left behind.

"Brother Qing, you go back first, I'll talk to my brothers for a while." Li Enbai told his three brothers the truth after driving away Brother Qing, "Brother Qing and Young Master Liu Love each other, it's time for Young Master Liu to propose marriage after the Chinese New Year."

His third brother just took a sip of water and sprayed it out, "What?! Cough cough cough!"

The eldest brother was also dumbfounded, "What? Liu...Master Liu?"

On the contrary, the second elder brother was calmer, he was careful, he had already found out that the younger brother was interested in that young master, but he thought that a son of a rich family like Young Master Liu would definitely look down on his overly lively younger brother.

"Does marriage proposal mean marrying Xiaoqing as her husband? Xiaoqing in our family does not serve as a concubine." The second brother emphasized.

"Naturally, he is the right husband, and Young Master Liu has already promised me that he will only find a common house when he has no children in his forties. After the child is born, he will be raised by Brother Qing, and he will never take concubines."

Li Enbai didn't even want to accommodate the childlessness at forty, but this is not the Milky Way. Having no children will lead to their husband and wife being pointed at, and even Qing Geer being bullied and unable to resist.

As a last resort, he added this item. At that time, Liu Mingxi's performance was also very good, and he said that it was okay to adopt one from a side branch, and there was no need to fill in another person in the family to make Brother Qing feel uncomfortable.

The second brother was also a little surprised, he took a deep breath, his face became serious, "So, I understand that you want us to resign so that Brother Qing won't be looked down upon by his in-laws in the future, right?"

He is very clear, if Brother Qing is really married to Liu Mingxi, but his natal brother is working in the factory of his husband's family, isn't this rushing to poke someone in the back?

Before marrying in, this waist is not straight, and naturally it is not reasonable to marry in.

"This is on the one hand. Now that Brother Qing and Liu Mingxi have settled down, we can't rush to give others excuses. Another thing is that Brother Qing's natal family is the confidence of Brother Qing. Only when Brother Qing can support it can Brother Qing I am not afraid of anything, I hope my brothers can work hard to enrich the family fortune."

What Li Enbai said was very sincere, and the three brothers decided to go back and think about it after listening to it. Li Enbai persuaded Mu Haishan again, and finally the four of them left with heavy faces.

Li Enbai was having a small meeting here, and the two Zhang brothers who had left there walked home in silence. As they walked, Zhang Song stopped suddenly, "Brother, don't you want to quit your job?"

Zhang Bai looked at his second brother inexplicably, "What are you talking about... Is it possible that you want to quit? Everyone has the desire to do business, but you have to have the ability to do it. I will marry your sister-in-law soon It's not suitable to take risks after entering the door."

He was right, it wasn't that he didn't have ambitions, it wasn't that he didn't believe in Li Enbai, it was just that he didn't want to take any risks now, the marriage was decided with great difficulty, he didn't dare to bet at this time.

Zhang Song didn't have his worries anymore, he and Brother Yu had discussed it long ago, and they had to wait until Brother Xue found someone he liked or they had enough money in their hands.

So he really wanted to give it a try. It would be better to be a boss by himself than to work for others all the time. Moreover, he believed that Li Enbai would not be aimless, and would definitely succeed.

"Brother, I want to quit my job. I want to work hard. The opportunity to make a lot of money is right in front of me. I can't let him slip away." Zhang Song said firmly, with a feeling of being overwhelmed.

Zhang Bai looked at his brother for a while, sighed, and patted his second brother on the shoulder, "Go if you want, I will support you at home, don't worry."

"Then I'll talk to Dabai now!" Zhang Song hurried back, he had a hunch that this was an opportunity to change the fate of the whole family!
