Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

When Hao Liang came over, a sharp-eyed old lady noticed Hao Liang, stopped the discussion, and asked Hao Liang standing next to her.

"Young man, you bought your house, when will you move in?"

"I plan to open a factory there instead of living there. Auntie, are there any of you who are unemployed? Can you introduce some people to come and work?"

"There are really some of my renters who are not working yet. Young man, how many people do you need? How much is the salary? I can't do anything less."

"The salary is calculated on a piece-rate basis, which is 5 cents per piece. In one month, if you are quick, you will earn almost 2,000 yuan."

"Piece rate? Young man, what kind of factory do you run? Do we, the older ones, want it? We can just give you a thousand yuan. We are not slow in our work."

"Don't do it now. I'll recruit five first and I'll take them over to learn. Auntie, why don't you go talk to me and let them come to my house tomorrow morning."

"Okay, let me tell you two things now. It happens that there are two women who have just come here to rent a house in my house. They are not working yet. Let me ask about it." An aunt said.

Another aunt also said that the person who rented the house in their family had no job, so she went back to tell Hao Liang. Several aunts and uncles gathered together, and suddenly there were ten people, which was double what Hao Liang wanted.

Hao Liang thanked several old men and women who were landlords, and then turned back to the room to accompany Meng Wendi.

The next morning, Hao Liang rode a battery car to take Meng Wendi to the printing and dyeing factory where she worked, and then rode the battery car directly back to the house in the village in the city.

Several women in their thirties were already waiting at the door, and a few were holding children in their arms. It seemed that these were the people introduced to him by the aunts and uncles last night.

Hao Liang counted, there were almost fifteen or six, which was more than yesterday's count. Of course, there were also some of yesterday's aunts in the crowd.

Hao Liang thought about it, it was only 2005, and they were in their thirties, working in hotels, clothing stores, etc., so they were a little older.

Unlike later, in some hotels, the waiters were all old women in their fifties, and there were no younger ones. Mainly because they were younger and didn't want to work in the hotel.

At that time, every time Hao Liang called Zhong Yi, he could hear him complaining that now the hotel has become an elderly activity room, and there is not a single little girl.

I want to have an affair, and I also find someone to cheat on. In the past, the front hall and the front room were full of goblins, but now they are all a group of old goblins. The kind of old goblins from Montenegro.

But now that they are in their thirties, they can only work in factories. Now the factories have almost all hired good people. It is also difficult to find a job nearby.

When I heard that Hao Liang was recruiting people, you passed it on to me, and I passed it on to you. Word spread all of a sudden, and those who didn’t have a job came to take a look. This is the power of the aunts in the urban villages.

As long as you have something, you can spread it throughout the village, which is much better than posting some recruitment notice.

"Young man, I brought you someone, let's see how it goes." Yesterday, an aunt saw Hao Liang riding a battery car and said quickly.

"Auntie, are these all?"

"It's all, you can keep those who are suitable, and let those who are not suitable go back. By the way, when will your factory open?"

Hao Liang thought for a while and decided to take five people to the umbrella factory where the market is listed tomorrow and let them learn for a day. He would come back with machines and materials and let them teach those who had not been there.

So Hao Liang said to the questioning aunt, "Aunt, sign up today. Those who want to go to work should register first. I will take five people to study tomorrow and start working the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll ask them to register with you first." After saying that, the aunt was like a foreman, conveying Hao Liang's words to the people who came over.

Hao Liang opened the door of the building and found that he had to buy tables and benches. And looking at the people coming in to register, he realized that he didn't even bring paper or pen.

Hao Liang could only ask a woman who came to apply for a job to help him go to the canteen and sell a notebook and a pen. Then he registered them one by one.

If he sees those who are smarter, he will ask them to come here tomorrow morning. He plans to take them to the umbrella factory to study. The others will be asked to come to work early the day after tomorrow.

It didn't take long for these people to register. They completed the registration in less than half an hour. Hao Liang asked them to go back first.

After everyone in the village was gone, Hao Liang looked at the seventeen people who had registered to come to work. Originally, Hao Liang wanted to give them piecemeal calculations.

After asking several people, they only wanted a fixed salary, which surprised Hao Liang, but since it was such an obvious good thing, Hao Liang would not refuse.

The salary is set at 1,300 yuan. If you don't take a break for a month, you can get a perfect attendance bonus of 200 yuan. If you take a break, it will be gone.

Regarding this salary, those who signed up did not have any objections. There were only a few people who wanted to work on a piece-rate basis, but for the fixed salary that most people asked for, they naturally had no choice but to follow the crowd.

After Hao Liang locked the door, he went to the village in the city and went to find the aunts to ask if they had any unwanted tables, stools or other things.

Although these tables and stools can be sold in the second-hand market, they are not sold in the villages in the city. It is cheaper to buy them from the villagers. It only costs a few dozen yuan.

"Young man, have you hired someone yet?" an aunt sitting on the roadside asked when she saw Hao Liang coming.

"We've found it for the time being, thanks to the aunts in the village. By the way, aunt, do you know anyone in the village who has unwanted old tables, stools, etc."

"Maybe there really aren't any old tables and stools." The aunt thought for a moment and replied.

"Auntie, what I want is something older, with wooden boards put together casually. It doesn't have to be too good."

"Young man, now all the old things in the village are kept in rental houses for the tenants to use. How can there be so many of them? Why don't you go to the flea market? In the past, when people in the village needed it, they would go to the flea market.

Bought from the market.”

"Oh, thank you for reminding me, aunt. Then I'll go to the second-hand market and have a look."

"Young man, what I'm talking about is the flea market, not the second-hand market. You can go to the second-hand market and have a look. Things in the second-hand market are expensive." The aunt said with great experience.

"Okay, that flea market is over there. Auntie, please tell me."

"Go down this way, get out of the Third Ring Road, and ask someone to find out. It would be great if Old Tao's family were here. Just buy some wooden boards and let him knock them on for you."

After hearing this, Hao Liang was about to leave when the sitting aunt stopped Hao Liang and said again.

"By the way, young man, I heard someone say that you have a very powerful relative. Can you let her come to my house to see her when she comes? I can't sleep these days, aunt."

"Okay, aunt, my relatives are here, I'll tell her, I'm leaving first."

After Hao Liang got the news he wanted, he stopped wandering around the village in the city and returned to the building he bought. He got on the battery car and went to the flea market that Auntie had mentioned.

This flea market is really hard to find. Hao Liang went to the Third Ring Road and searched around, but he didn't find any flea market at all.

When I was about to ride the electric scooter back, a few young men and women happened to come over. They were just joking and laughing. One of them was a pretty girl.

Hao Liang rode up to them and asked the group coming from the opposite side, "Handsome guys and beauties. Do you know where the flea market here is?"

"We are from out of town. I don't know. You can go ahead and ask others." A girl among them said.

"OK, thanks!"

After Hao Liang finished thanking him and was about to leave, a boy with a tuft of yellow hair among them said, "You ride forward and you'll be there just after turning a corner."

"Okay, okay, thank you! Thank you, handsome man. I've been looking around here and can't find it." Hao Liang thanked him again.

"You're welcome, go quickly." said the boy giving the directions.

After Hao Liang left in the direction pointed by the boy, the more beautiful girl among them said to the boy pointing the way.

"How do you know where the flea market is? Didn't you just come here yesterday?"

"I pointed it out to him casually, just to see if he was unhappy." The boy with dyed yellow hair said.

"He just asked for directions. Why do you think he's upset? You are a real person. Aren't you hurting others? What if someone is in an emergency?" The girl said with some blame.
