The couple's hands were shaking with excitement, and they didn't know what to say. They just thought that they must work harder, but they couldn't bear to mistreat these dozen strings of copper coins!
With so much money, I was afraid that something would happen after dark, and I couldn't even sit for more than half an hour without taking it. I quickly told Mr. Yuan from Song Qiu that I was going home, and I wasn't curious about how much the remaining people would receive.
wages.
Seeing the two of them covering their arms tightly like thieves, Song Qiu also wanted to laugh.
If you walk home on the main road, what will happen?
No one knows how much wages will be paid today, but it looks like there is no more than three hundred taels of silver in this place.
Upon hearing this, the two of them smiled sheepishly, then tried their best to relax and walked home quickly.
It usually takes three-quarters of an hour to get home, but today I got in in two-quarters of an hour.
He was panting heavily as he walked, and everyone at home thought something serious had happened.
I hurriedly asked and found out that my wages were being paid today.
Everyone in the Yuan family was very happy that Yuan Hua and his wife were working at their aunt's house and getting back more than one tael of silver a month.
Apart from being happy, he was also grateful. Yuan Shuanzi gave instructions and once again told the couple to work hard.
After hearing what Yuan Hua said about Song Qiu's harvest of sweet potatoes, Yuan Shuanzi immediately decided to start digging sweet potatoes early tomorrow morning.
This thing is worthless. If you really sell it to fill your stomach, it won’t be worth dozens of kilograms of rice.
How much brown rice can I buy with just one tael of wages?
Therefore, Yuan Shuanzi planned to give all the sweet potatoes dug at home to Song Qiu without paying a penny.
No one else in the family had any objections either.
A little more than one tael of silver is just for one month. How many more months will there be in the future? This little sweet potato is nothing now.
Old Meng was so happy that he kept an eye on his vegetable garden to see what vegetables were edible, and quickly gave them to Song Qiu and Song Qiu for use in the inn.
When she came back to the inn, Zhang Lihua took the wages and put them away. She would have to give them to her when she went back later. She had already collected wages from Ah Qiu several times, and it was always like this.
But secretly, she and Ah Qiu's secret was that they would give her an extra five cents every day, which was one hundred and fifty cents a month, and Ah Qiu had saved all of it for her.
By now, she has almost two taels of silver with Aqiu.
Zhang Lihua laughed out loud as she thought about it.
She was a little darker, and when she smiled like this, her face was round and round, and she looked quite honest.
Song Qiu could see clearly that this girl was thinking about good things, so she also smiled and then looked at Aling.
"Everyone has wages, and of course Ah Ling also has it. I will give you the same salary as Lihua, which is six hundred a month. You can keep it yourself and buy whatever you want, or save it for a dowry."
Previously, Al-Ling said that if he stayed, he would only need to take care of food, food, and housing, so he didn't talk about wages. This was the first time that Al-Ling received wages.
Holding six strings of money, she put it either on the left or on the right, thinking that she would have been hungry all the way or else she would have hunted some game and caught some fish as a wanderer. When had she ever had money on her body?
She hurriedly pushed the money string in front of Song Qiu, "I can't save enough money, and I don't have anything to buy. How many clothes have you made for me, Sister Aqiu? I have enough to wear. With this money, you can
Can you help me save it?"
Song Qiu listened and nodded, "Okay, I'll save it for you."
This girl has no relatives anymore. If she stays with her from now on, she will be called grandma. She and her grandma will have to worry about the marriage. The money will be saved for her, and it will be her dowry.
After that, Song Qiu looked at Du Chuanfu and the other three, "Although Uncle Du, Aunt Wang and Dalian are the people I bought back, the wages are wages and they still have to be paid. I heard that people from big families also have to pay every day.
Those who get paid monthly.”
"I don't know the market conditions elsewhere, so I'll just do what I think. Uncle Du is the shopkeeper, and he has to get up early to buy groceries every day. But it's hard work, so he only gets one tael of silver a month.
Aunt Wang works in the kitchen every day, which is equally hard, and only costs seven coins a month.
In Dalian, you have to look after the carriages and horses every day. If you have guests staying, you have to stay outside to watch the carriages and horses. It's not easy in the cold weather, so you only get eight coins a month."
"What do you think?"
Three people, three wages.
Song Qiu also made it clear why it was different.
After hearing this, Du Chuanfu and the other three nodded, indicating that they had no objections and that they all listened to their boss.
It was the first time Ms. Wang was a current person. She didn't know that in the past, she only thought about seven hundred taels of money a month. Back in her husband's house, when her husband was still alive, the family could not save a few taels of silver throughout the year.
This seven hundred bucks a month was really a lot, and she felt very satisfied, and she didn't want to compare with Du Chuanfu and the others.
And Du Chuanfu used to work as a nurse in his master's house for only two cents a month, and he sold his body. How could his master's family seriously pay you so much as a human worker?
The little boss actually gave him one tael of silver, and the man who never showed his emotions could not help but blush slightly at this moment.
If his little boss treats him well, he will definitely work hard in the future. In this life, he will work for his little boss, as long as his little boss doesn't dislike him.
Yang Dalian was also very happy with the eight cents of silver a month. He thought a lot. With the money saved, he also wanted to ask the little boss for a favor and let the old lady help him find a wife!
What kid of seventeen or eighteen doesn’t want a wife?
hey-hey.
The three of them happily accepted their wages.
Finally, Song Qiu looked at Old Yuan and said with a smile: "I used to work with Nai for so long, and I didn't give you any salary. Now that the inn is open, our days have a beginning and an end every day, but we can't let Nai get up early every day and stay late.
If you work in vain, I still have to pay you for your work."
Old Yuan listened and said with an angry smile: "What kind of salary can you give me?"
"You must have money in your hands. You can buy whatever you want. I will also give you six coins a month." As he said this, he counted out six strings of copper coins.
Old Yuan smiled so much that wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes, and her heart felt so relieved that she stopped happily.
If her granddaughter insists on giving her money, how can she refuse to accept it?
Her little granddaughter is promising.
It's a pity that my wife, son and daughter-in-law couldn't watch it.
Old Yuan was happy and feeling nostalgic, thinking that when she went back later, she would take out the memorial tablet and talk about it.
It's a pity that I couldn't take care of it when I went back.
After entering the house, washing up, Song Qiu followed him into Old Yuan's house.
This made Old Yuan feel embarrassed even if he wanted to take out the tablet.
After all, talking about it to her wife, son, and daughter-in-law is the secret of an old lady like her, and even her granddaughter would be embarrassed to let her see it.
I am also afraid that my granddaughter will be sad and regretful.
"Nai, I think I have enough money on hand. Even if I have to spend some money here on Sweet Potato, it will still be enough, so I plan to buy some fields. What do you think?"
These days, when farmers have spare money, don’t they all want to buy land?
Fields are valuable, so you won’t lose money if you buy them.
I just don’t know if this good land is worth buying.
Originally, it might be more convenient to buy a shop or a house in the town, but she had no intention of developing in the town at all, so there was no need for the shop and house to rent and collect rent.
She can also rent out the land to collect rent. The most important thing is that she wants to use it to grow peppers.
