Looking at the three pairs of eager eyes, Huang An narrowed his eyes slightly, gritted his teeth and said directly:

"How about 700 people? 30 copper coins per person per day. If you have skills, the price will still be calculated according to other craftsmen in Fen County! In addition, three meals a day are not included in the wages!"

700 people?

Luo Xing and the others' eyes lit up, and they instantly felt that an opportunity to make a fortune had come.

700 people, each person needs at least 30 copper coins per day, which is estimated to be needed for two months.

Calculate it this way.

Do the math...

The three of them had no paper and pen at hand, so they couldn't do the math verbally.

But I also know that this is a huge benefit, which can at least bring hundreds of taels of silver to the three of them.

At this moment, everyone was feeling a little silly with joy.

Indeed, his three good brothers can indeed earn a lot of money from it!

Huang An settled the accounts in the morning and asked someone to inquire about the three brothers' usual styles.

He paid the workers 30 copper coins a day, and these 700 people had to work for at least two months.

Based on the temperament of the three elder brothers, Zhou Papi, the calculation was based on the customary commission.

In the end, the three of them will have to take at least three-quarters of the reward and put it into their own pockets.

The amount of money in their pockets is at least 315 taels per person!

This amount of money is actually a lot!

Even Lord Zhao Dunzhao, who is of the third rank, can legitimately receive a salary from the imperial court, converted into equivalent silver, which is no more than two hundred taels.

You can imagine how happy Luo Xing and the others were to get more than 300 taels of silver at once.

No wonder they lose their composure and cannot hide the smiles on their lips.

It's because the money came too quickly.

The most important thing is that this money does not need to be paid to their superiors, it can all go into their personal pockets.

Yu Mao licked his lips, but still felt that he should persuade him. He hesitated and said:

"Fourth brother, are these 700 people a bit too much?"

Huang An pretended to be thoughtful, then pursed his lips and waved his hands, shaking his head and saying:

"Second brother! Eldest brother, third brother! These seven hundred people are actually not many! The stalls where I live are very big. Just to accommodate people, hundreds of houses need to be built.

Dapo also needs manpower, people are needed everywhere!"

When Luo Xing and the others heard Huang An's explanation, their eyes suddenly turned green when they thought about the busy construction scenes they had seen in the past few days.

Mr. Zhao, how much money did he give to his fourth brother?

Why does he even have to spend money to repair the houses of his men?

I heard that the scale of the construction is quite large, and there is even a two-story wooden house.

Even if manpower is worthless and materials are cheaper, there are still so many people to eat and drink and poop!

I'm afraid I won't be able to fight without two or three thousand taels of silver.

The fourth brother's wealth and Master Zhao's great love for him really made the three of them crazy with envy.

However, from another perspective, the benefits they can get from participating in this matter are also huge.

Seeing that there was no trouble in Huang An's face, he knew that this fourth brother was determined to recruit 700 people.

This...it's no wonder they are.

Yu Mao rubbed his hands and said with a smile:

"Since the fourth brother insists on this, then the three of us as brothers can definitely get these 700 people together!"

"Yes, yes! Fourth brother, don't worry!"

"We must select those who are good at work and make sure not to hold our fourth brother back!"

Luo Xing and Xu Kun quickly followed.

Although the combined manpower of the three parties exceeds 1,100 people, there are still old people and children among them.

The difficulty of extracting 700 people is very high.

Fortunately, it was my fourth brother who was on duty for two days, not them.

Including the subordinates in Xialin Village, more than 90% are in their prime.

Therefore, these 700 people can still be extracted.

If they really can't get it out, they can still think of another way!

They can go to Fen County and hire some more laborers for ten copper coins instead of five copper coins.

After all, the fourth brother directly said that he would provide three meals a day!

Three meals a day!

This temptation alone can allow them to recruit thousands of people in Fen County!

After all, it’s normal these days to work for free just for a bite to eat!

Food expenses are not included in wages, which is very tempting.

This big deal must be taken down!

The three of them had already made up their minds.

Huang An smiled secretly in his heart when he saw the appearance of his three brothers, but his face became serious.

Luo Xing and the others naturally noticed it. Yu Mao's expression changed slightly. He looked at Huang An who was hesitant to speak and asked:

"Fourth brother, do you have anything to hide?"

Huang An pondered for a second, pretending to be embarrassed.

"However, I have two ugly words that I want to say at the beginning! I hope my three brothers will write them down!"

The expressions of Yu Mao and the others changed slightly, and then they laughed heartily and said:

"This is nature, this is nature. Fourth brother, please tell me!"

"Don't say a few words, we will agree to ten."

The embarrassment on Huang An's face disappeared instantly, he stretched out a finger, looked at the three of them, and said seriously:

"The first point is about wages. At the end of the month, they will be paid in one lump sum according to the number of working days! I will send someone to hand it over to the workers in person!"

What?

Give it to your brothers, not us?

Is it possible that we should learn from the rules you used to pay your subordinates last time?

That absolutely won't work!

The expressions of Luo Xing and the others changed instantly, and they didn't know what Huang An meant for a while.

Seeing the changes in the expressions of the three brothers, Huang An remained unmoved, as if he hadn't noticed.

He smiled bitterly:

"I don't want to be the younger brother of this evil man! If I hand it over directly to the three older brothers, then..."

Huang An didn't finish what he said, but Luo Xing and the others understood it.

"Ahem!"

Yu Mao coughed a few times, grabbed the tea cup and took a sip of hot tea to hide his embarrassment.

Fourth brother is afraid that I will take away all my wages!

Not to mention, the fourth brother’s concerns are indeed justified. That’s what he, Yu Mao, really planned!

The same was true for Luo Xing and Xu Kun. They coughed twice and picked up the teacups.

The three brothers took advantage of the time when they lowered their heads to drink tea, made eye contact, and quickly reached an agreement.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! They also understood the meaning of the fourth brother's words.

The fourth brother doesn’t want to bear the infamy for the three of them!

Unexpectedly, the fourth brother was quite clever despite his young age.

The worst case did not happen, and all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

The laborers' money will indeed be paid in full.

If the fourth brother handed the money directly to the three of them, then the wages that the laborers would get in the end would not be much more.

Those workers were all from Xialin Village and were their brothers. In name, they were also the fourth brothers.
