Chapter 204: Young Master Xiao Opportunity Comes to Your Door(1/2)
Wang Yuanniang is counting the supplies at home.
There is food, cloth, pickles...
These are all saved by her and Brother Shen over the past six months, getting up early and working hard to work hard.
The placement of these belongings made her feel accomplished.
Brother Chen walked in from outside. His originally fair skin tanned two colors one summer.
He first lifted the teapot and poured a cup of cold boiled water.
Water is very precious!
He drank very carefully and seriously.
It seems to be trying to taste the taste of every drop of water.
While working, Wang Yuanniang asked him, "The manager asked you to go to the workshop. Is the workshop going to re-schedule? Did the owner decide to increase the shipment volume?"
Her words were filled with a hint of expectation.
Although I know deeply that increasing shipments and having more work to do is impossible in this year.
But, I still have a little bit of expectation in my heart.
Looking forward to hearing good news.
Brother Chen drank half a glass of water, held the remaining half in his hand, and sat down on the bench.
"The manager asked me to come over and announced a news. It was not good news."
His tone was calm and his voice was neither light nor heavy.
Wang Yuanniang paused, turned around and asked him seriously: "What news? You said, I'll listen."
Brother Chen sighed, "The manager said that the villa is very difficult now. It is very stressful to support so many people. From today on, all the work in the villa, whether it is the work in the fields or the work in the workshop, will be reduced by half. If you don't accept it, you can only leave the villa and find another way out."
"ah!"
Wang Yuanniang exclaimed, her eyes a little confused.
“Remuneration is cut in half?”
This news has had a big impact on her.
Half of the reward means that all plans and arrangements must be overturned.
The days that were originally quite affordable became tight in a blink of an eye.
Brother Chen said again: "The manager asked me if I wanted to stay or not. He said that we would give us a night to consider the time. Tomorrow morning, we will go to the workshop to reply, whether we are going or staying. What are your thoughts?"
Wang Yuanniang had a bitter face, "What else can I have? The homeowner's business is so big that life is hard, and it is even more difficult for us ordinary people. After leaving the villa, where can we find work? Where can we support ourselves? Not to mention the reward is half, even if the reward is only 30% left, there will be people rushing to do it. Stay it! Apart from staying in the villa, I don't know where to go."
Brother Chen nodded, "Listen to you! I will go to the workshop to reply tomorrow morning, and we will stay. If you reduce the reward by half, you will get half. At least you can eat and drink, save some food and save some food and send it back to your family."
Wang Yuanniang sighed and silently put away all the cloth and food.
She whispered: "It's been drought for so long, so my family may not be able to get a harvest. I plan to go back to my parents' home while I have less work in the past few days and send ten kilograms of food back. Do you think it's okay?"
Brother Chen is a little reluctant to let it go.
Nowadays, water is precious and food is equally precious.
But he nodded and replied, "Is ten pounds enough to eat? Should I add five more pounds."
Wang Yuanniang shook her head, "We must be filial to your parents. Why not go home and send the food back in person."
Brother Chen shook his head, "I'll wait for you to come back from your parents' home, and we'll go back together to deliver food. Otherwise, parents should say yours again. If you send food back, they will definitely be happy."
Wang Yuanniang smiled sweetly.
Brother Chen asked carefully: "After delivering food, are we enough to eat by ourselves?"
Wang Yuanniang nodded repeatedly, "Enough to eat. I have calculated the life. The remaining food is enough for us to eat for more than half a month. If it really doesn't work, there are still a few pieces of cloth that can be exchanged for food."
Brother Chen shook his head repeatedly, "Save the cloth first. I heard from the guy at the Siji Clothing Village that the price of cloth will increase by the second half of the year. This year, drought is everywhere, and the yield of mulberry seeds has been basically reduced, and even the harvest is not limited. The cotton from the west is not only high in price this year, but also has a small quantity. By the end of the year, the cloth on the market will definitely be scarce, and maybe even short of food. If we leave the cloth until the end of the year, we will definitely be able to exchange for more food."
Wang Yuanniang laughed. She was very satisfied with her own men becoming more and more successful and more careful in living.
She smiled and said, "I will listen to you, and the cloth will not move. When I go back to my parents' home, I plan to bring some pickles and sauce..."
"Everything depends on you!"
Brother Chen is very straightforward and doesn't care.
Wang Yuanniang was satisfied. She tried her best to do everything she could, and her husband's family was not biased to help her.
My parents' family gave me ten kilograms of grain, and my mother-in-law also gave me ten kilograms of grain.
If she does this, there will be someone in the in-laws who are gossiping, and she can't do anything about it.
At worst, I can go back to my in-laws' house less and ignore those people.
Half of the couple's small family is her income.
She has the right to dominate her income.
However, in recent months, life has become less and less, and life has become more and more painful.
A few days ago, refugees flocked to District 3 to fetch water, and she was very nervous at that time.
I was afraid of those refugees thieves.
Later, bloody conflict broke out, and nearly 10,000 refugees were driven away, and she finally fell asleep peacefully.
Life is difficult now, at least we have food and drink, houses to cover ourselves, and we have work to do every day.
Such a life is really a nest of happiness for villagers who suffer from suffering outside and are tortured by drought.
...
The next morning, Brother Chen and Wang Yuanniang and his wife went to the workshop together.
Everyone who is familiar is here.
Everyone chose to stay.
The same is true for refugees, no one will choose to leave at this time.
Leaving the villa, going out is a dead end.
The workshop signed a new agreement with everyone.
If you can't read, press your fingers to print.
After pressing the finger print, you can start work.
Today, the construction will only start for half a day and one and a half hours.
Nowadays, I only live like this every day.
If you want to do more, the workshop won’t let you do it.
Raw materials cannot be supplied, and the warehouse goods are piled up like mountains. Without turnover, there will be no money to be recorded.
I can maintain the work start for half a day every day, so that everyone has work to do and pay for it, and I have done my best.
By the end of the year, the situation is probably even more difficult.
...
Yan Yunge arranged everything and set off for Beijing.
She asked someone to tell Xiao Yi that she wanted to mine.
This year, the losses were heavy.
Not only will the harvest be confiscated, but the money you earned in the past few years may have to be posted.
Whenever she thinks of this, her heart is bleeding!
What business is now making money?
Apart from usury, it is mining.
The Four Seasons Money Bank has already started, there are many people taking out loans, and the business looks very hot, so it should be a big profit.
but……
I'm afraid of everything but.
Debt collection has become a painful and troublesome thing.
The money bank now has many bad debts, but it is all over the deadline and cannot pay back the money.
She can organize violent debt collection, but she also needs the borrower to have valuable industries.
For some borrowers, you go to collect the debt and directly push the wife and children in the family forward, and call it a person who pays the debt.
Pooh!
There are tens of thousands of people in the villa who open their mouths to eat, so many that they wish they could drive away another ten thousand people.
The money shop pays the debt by people, just to cause trouble.
To be continued...
