Chapter 172 The Wisdom of Compromise
"Hey, I thought why was it a big deal? Those who are ordinary young girls in the village can live together if they can see each other. They all grew up together, know each other's bottom line, and can make it cheaper for other farmers.
If there are not enough girls in the village, the remaining kids will follow us to Yizhou to ensure that we can get our wife back.
The guys in our store are all popular, and some of them are beautiful, but they brought a few new wives back this time.
After the New Year, it’s time for the village to import the family.” When the uncles heard that this was the case, they all became happy and talked all over the place.
"After the New Year, a group of victims will come. At that time, I will choose more. The Weaver Girl, who has lost her relatives, will be placed in our village.
A man with craftsmanship and knowledgeable skills will also send some." Uncle Fan Mengda added next to him.
"Okay, I've always been worried that there are too few people available in the village, especially those with craftsmanship, so I'm just taking this opportunity to supplement more." Shi Lei said happily.
These victims are burdens and a big trouble for other farmers. After all, they have a lot of mouths to eat, and they are still hungry and have no oil in their stomachs. No one is willing to take over. But if you come to our farmers, you don’t have to worry about these problems at all.
"At the beginning, we will get a labor-for-relief, find something for them to do, and see how they perform. If they are down-to-earth and willing families, it will be fine to let them settle in our village.
If it is the scammer, get it back for them as soon as possible. Well, start finding a place to place these people separately, don’t give those who are slutty and have a chance to slap in the inside and out." Shi Lei said, rubbing his chin.
"Yes, there are almost no staff in several of our shops, especially the various craftsmen who have passed the craftsmanship. That's better.
As long as we have a good understanding and a down-to-earth person, we can bring some apprentices out.
According to our development trend, the store size will definitely expand, and it is inevitable to look back. We have to go back to Chang'an to open a semicolon. Now we have to start cultivating more people." Uncle Yang nodded and said.
"There is another thing. There is news that the meeting today announced that some palace maids and eunuchs will be released from the palace at the New Year's Day ceremony.
We must take over some of them here to see what it can be used for.” After the blacksmith asked Shi Lei’s opinion with his eyes, he also told the news.
These big shopkeepers have all received Shi Lei’s transformation, and their loyalty is absolutely reliable. If you talk about such news, there will be no problem.
Anyway, many of these people have to work at their hands. They just hide the news from the Chief Manager Fusheng, this source.
Shi Lei agreed to these two things at the beginning, but now it seems that he has solved some manpower problems just right.
Moreover, Shi Lei also found that these palace maids can also be used to solve the problem of a lot of bachelors in the village, and those weaver girls can do it too.
These housekeepers can all become good servants, after all, they have the experience. They just need a process of investigation. Don’t come with a messy purpose. Just find those who really want to live a life.
"I think these people have craftsmanship and rely on craftsmanship to make a living. For those who don't have craftsmanship, they are good at serving people and supplementing them in various stores, which will be easier to use.
It doesn’t matter if we have enough money for a while. We will definitely go to Chang'an to open a store in the future. Isn’t it a bad thing to reserve more people for use?"
After Shi Lei finished speaking with a smile, the shopkeepers nodded in agreement.
Their concerns were about their origins, which were similar to the ideas of other nobles who dared not use these people.
They always have to get in touch with the situation in the store. If this is a spy, there is not much to hide from these people.
But Shi Lei agreed, just be careful and pay more attention to it.
But Shi Lei felt that it would be more open-minded. There were really a few spies, which might not be a bad thing.
Those in power always have no understanding of themselves, especially things that cannot be controlled, and are extremely repulsive.
But if they feel that everything about you is in their hands, even if you do something that crosses the line, as long as the general direction is good, it is not for rebellion or something, people will pretend that they don’t know.
This is a kind of compromise wisdom. Nowadays, there are not many people in the family of the powerful, who do this work openly and secretly.
It’s just that everyone is tacit, and this is also a manifestation of the mutual accompliance of the king and his subjects.
After talking about these things, this year's summary and commendation meeting will be over, and everyone will move to the restaurant next door.
The table of sumptuous food has been well prepared, but the two chefs who have already served as one side.
But after doing it, they went back to their respective homes, and it was time for the Chinese New Year to be celebrated, so they still wanted to stay with their families more.
This meal is naturally a joy for guests and guests, and it means a thank-you banquet from the host family.
Of course, considering that all the shopkeepers were going to reunite with their families in the evening, Shi Lei specially chose this meal at noon.
I have to say that after some experience, these two chefs with good talent have a bit of a sense of being better than being superior to being superior to being superior to being superior to being superior.
All kinds of dishes are made very well, and I have a few innovative dishes.
"Come on, try these jail balls made of Mengding tea, how does it taste?" Shi Lei pointed to a few plates of dumplings and said to everyone.
This custom is similar to Shi Lei in later generations. You must eat dumplings on New Year's Eve. However, at this time in the Tang Dynasty, dumplings were called "Luanwan".
And when eaten, it is a bit like wontons from later generations. They have to be served with soup, and some coriander is sprinkled into the soup for decoration.
Tingliao in the yard also lit up early, but it was just a bonfire, but it also had the meaning of eliminating the old and welcoming the new.
However, Shi Lei's house will definitely not throw any firecrackers into it, and will not add spices to burn it.
There is no way, isn’t Shi Lei still filial? The family must not be too festive, it must be so simple that it will come.
Shi Lei even wore a mourning clothes, and he couldn't even bring up his new clothes.
After dinner, Shi Lei and several uncles sat in the tea break room and chatted.
The uncles basically made a fuss with Shi Lei, and went to Xiaoyao Chair. Each of them held a Xishi pot with a full sip, and from time to time they ate the Mengding Xian Tea in the pot.
But Shi Lei had his hand empty and wanted to touch the rabbit lying on his belly from time to time, and the smooth fur on his body.
Well, this rabbit is like the bamboo that is enjoying Shi Lei’s Thai massage, and it is much fatter. It’s like several balls being put together, and it’s round and cute.
There are only a few people in this room, so you can’t keep staring at me all the time, you have to stay up to the New Year.
Although Shi Lei could not attend many celebrations, it is definitely necessary to greet the elders in the house, so you have to persevere until the second half of the night.
After the renovation, the uncles are now very energetic, but if everyone is quiet, no matter how energetic you are, you will easily get sleepy.
Shi Lei simply took out several chess sets that had been prepared long ago, and as soon as he explained the rules, the uncles started fighting each other.
Only Shi Lei is left, facing the second brother of Xiong Nobita alone. How can you tell me how to play this?
But after really getting started, Shi Lei was surprised to find that these two brothers could understand the rules. Well, they were playing Goji.
These two brothers are honest. Although they are a little stupid, their minds are not really stupid. Can you not understand such a simple thing?
As a result, Shi Lei and the brother were killed unexpectedly and couldn't tell the difference.
Hey, I don’t believe this evil anymore. I am not a bald man, and I can’t beat you two Nobita’s second brothers. Shi Lei is competing with these brothers. To be continued.
