Life in a quiet village in Xianshan

In the afternoon, it had just started to rain lightly, and there was still a bit of moisture in the air. Gu Siwei didn't care whether it was wet or not, and quickly found someone to set up a table in the small playground of the school.

There was a handbag on the table. Inside the handbag was the money I had just withdrawn from the bank. The money was not much, only a few thousand dollars in total. In a few decades, this thing would probably be the only thing most people have. A monthly salary, but at this time it can be said to be a considerable amount of money.

The person who withdrew the money was Gu Siwei. He was not afraid of losing or robbing the money, so it was safe and reliable.

"Sister-in-law Meiling, is the account correct?"

Now Wu Meiling is the accountant in the village, so she is suitable because there are educated people in the village. Hu Yanqiu is the principal of the school. Gu Siwei has been idle all day and has become the captain. It is not suitable to be an accountant, so the last one is literate. Wu Meiling became the village accountant.

The money that Gu Siwei had withdrawn, including the money and the bankbook, were handed back to Wu Meiling and asked her to check to see if there were any errors in the amount.

Wu Meiling looked at it very carefully. When she heard what Gu Siwei said, she nodded: "Everything is normal! There is no mistake."

Gu Siwei said: "Well, let's post the account later and put it on the bulletin board over there in the playground. Pass on Brother Wu, pass on Brother Wu!"

When there were no mistakes in the account, Gu Siwei called out to Yang Chuanwu who was chatting with someone next to him.

Seeing Yang Chuanwu looking over at him, Gu Siwei said: "Shall we start? Give the money early and let people go back early."

After hearing this, Yang Chuanwu said: "Don't worry, let me tell you something first."

Gu Siwei said: "What do you have to say before this?"

Yang Chuanwu said: "It's a matter of hiring people later."

"Oh, tell me, why, does anyone have an objection to the results of the previous discussion? Or does it mean that someone has an objection to the current ranking?" Upon hearing this, Gu Siwei thought that someone had an objection to the current result.

Yang Chuanwu said: "No, but some people's orchards are relatively small, and they don't want to work with the village."

Gu Siwei was a little confused after hearing this, and looked at Yang Chuanwu curiously, waiting for his explanation.

When Yang Chuanwu saw Gu Siwei's expression, he stopped hiding it and said directly: "Don't you understand? Some people are reluctant to pay the money because their gardens are small, so they want to ask relatives at home to come over to help, and then provide the money. After a few meals, I felt more or less satisfied when I left, and it cost less than hiring someone else.”

What was there that Gu Siwei didn't understand? He opened his mouth and asked: "How many are there exactly?"

Yang Chuanwu was a little hesitant. He thought for a moment and said, "Why do you ask this?"

"Okay, I won't wear small shoes for others just because of this. Your expression seems to be to accept the money from the fruit picking team. I don't need to hire anyone at home," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Yang Chuanwu Dao: "Don't tell you what I said specifically."

Gu Siwei said: "Am I so scary and dictatorial?"

Yang Chuanwu said: "Aren't the villagers afraid? I'm afraid that you won't agree and insist on unification."

"It's nothing, Brother Laibao, come here."

Gu Siwei shouted to Sun Laibao who was squatting under the tree over there.

After hearing this, Sun Laibao immediately dropped the cigarette butt in his hand and quickly came to Gu Siwei: "Siwei, what's the matter?"

"Does your family want to hire someone to pick fruit alone?" Gu Siwei asked.

Sun Laibao was a little surprised when he heard it, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Who said that?"

"I'm just asking, not who said it," Gu Siwei explained.

Sun Laibao said: "It's nothing. Others think so. I was moved when I heard it, but your sister-in-law said that you can't make friends with relatives about this matter. Don't let the fox fail to catch you and end up causing a lot of trouble." ! Let’s just follow the actions of the village, and no one will be able to blame anyone at that time, it’s best!”

Gu Siwei laughed after hearing this and said, "Did you hear that? Sister-in-law Chunya is the one who understands!"

Yang Chuanwu smiled and said, "How about you go and convince everyone?"

"It's not necessary, and it's not mandatory. If they like it, just let them do it. We at Zhuangzi can't take care of everything. It would be troublesome if we don't take care of everything. By the way, Sister-in-law Meiling, what do you think? Hire someone alone?”

Wu Meiling next to her smiled and said, "Forget it, we don't take advantage of others! Just like Brother Laibao's house, just do what we said last time."

Gu Siwei listened and smiled and said: "That's no problem. If our family doesn't move, then there will be no need to delete the team that I told you last time."

Now in Zhuangzi, the four families with the largest fruit area are still Gu Siwei. This situation will last at least two years. This pattern will not be broken until fruit trees in other people's gardens grow one after another.

Even at that time, the four families like Gu Siwei still belonged to the Daguoyuan family, but they were not as big as they are now.

Yang Chuanwu said: "Almost one-third is missing. Are there too many people in the team?"

Gu Siwei said: "There is so much more. It's better to agree now than to be short of manpower. Besides, it will be the busy time of farming soon. People's fields will become busy. If nothing else, these strong laborers They will definitely have to go back to harvest in the summer, and it will be difficult to hire people in a hurry."

Yang Chuanwu thought for a while and finally nodded: "What you said makes sense."

"That's it, we have two lines. If you want to hire people, you can hire them yourself. If you don't want to hire people, you can participate in the unified deployment in the village," Gu Siwei said.

"No problem!" Yang Chuanwu thinks this is the best. Everyone has a choice and no one will complain too much.

Seeing that the matter was resolved, Gu Siwei said: "Give me the money!"

Yang Chuanwu nodded after hearing this, and after humming, he said to the people surrounding the playground: "The money will start to be distributed soon. Everyone, please be careful. Those whose names are called come and collect the money. This money is based on Each of your teams will receive it, and you will share it with yourself when you go back. We don’t care how you divide it..."

After explaining the matter again, Yang Chuanwu finally said loudly: "Now, start the checkout!"

Wu Meiling had already sent the list of how much money each team should pay to Gu Siwei at this time.

Gu Siwei took a look and shouted loudly: "Xu Erbao! Xu Erbao, your team's total wages are three hundred and eighty-nine yuan and five cents! If it's right, come and get the money. If it's not right, you should also say something!"

Xu Erbao heard this, jumped up with a smile, and shouted loudly as he ran this way: "It's right, it's right! It's exactly the same!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Erbao had already arrived in front of the table, looking straight at Gu Siwei as he took the money that Wu Meiling had counted.

Gu Siwei took the money and counted it carefully.

At this time, there was no one-hundred-dollar bill, and the largest bill was ten yuan. Commonly known as Great Unity, the front is a group of people, with workers, peasants and soldiers in the front, various ethnic groups behind, and Tiananmen Square behind.

Thirty-eight bills passed through Gu Siwei's hands, and there was no problem. Gu Siwei put the money aside and extended his hand to Xu Erbao, who was running over.

"That piece of paper, the work order!"

Gu Siwei saw Xu Erbao in a daze and reminded him.

"oh!"

Hearing Gu Siwei's reminder, Xu Erbao immediately turned over his body and quickly took out a crumpled piece of paper. After spreading it out, it was the work order printed by the village.

"Sign!" Wu Meiling passed the work order, then turned the order in her hand and pushed it in front of Xu Erbao.

Xu Erbao scratched his head after hearing this: "Sister, I can't read!"

"You can't even write your name?" Wu Meiling asked.

Xu Erbao said: "I really don't know how to do it. I learned literacy back then, and I knew it at that time, but I didn't use it for a long time and forgot it again!"

Wu Meiling was not surprised, so she took out the ink pad box next to her, opened it, and said, "Then make a fingerprint!"

As soon as he heard about fingerprinting, Xu Erbao quickly stretched out his hand and pressed it in the ink pad box. Then he pressed it on the place where he wanted to sign, and a bright red fingerprint was printed on it.

At this point, the process was completed. Gu Siwei put the counted money into an envelope and said to Xu Erbao: "It's all counted. If you go away and say it's less, we won't recognize it."

Xu Erbao took the money, took it out immediately and started counting.

After ordering it twice, Gu Siwei looked at him with a smile, because he found that when he held about three hundred yuan, Xu Erbao's hands were obviously trembling. He must have never seen so much money before, and he was a little excited. .

"That's right?"

"No!"

After Xu Erbao replied, he immediately started counting from the beginning.

When Yang Chuanwu saw it, he laughed and scolded: "Okay, you have already counted it several times. You have to count to one side. If you can't count yourself, find someone else to count and they will count like you. Tomorrow you will count too." It’s never finished.”

Xu Erbao laughed after hearing this, just moved to the side, turned around and called another person, and continued counting just like Yang Chuanwu said.

"Ju Aibing!"

Gu Siwei called out the next one.

"Is Ju Aibing here?"

Seeing no one coming, Gu Siwei was a little curious.

"It's time to shit, just wait a moment, it will come soon" someone in the crowd responded.

Hahaha!

This answer immediately caused a burst of laughter around him.

"I'm coming!"

Amidst the roar of laughter, a middle-aged man was holding his pants with one hand and tying his belt with the other, and he was running towards here at the same time.

When Yang Chuanwu saw it, he immediately shouted to him: "You bastard, have you washed your hands after pooping?"

There was another round of laughter.

After hearing this, Ju Aibing immediately turned around and ran towards the river. He reached out his hand into the water and stirred it twice before taking it out and running quickly towards this side.

"Four hundred and eleven dollars and nine cents!" Gu Siwei shouted loudly.

"Yes, yes!" Ju Aibing responded happily.
