As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, time seems to speed up and the breath of autumn quickly fills the air.
The most obvious thing is that the autumn tigers have finally retreated, and jackets are needed at night and in the morning in the mountains.
At this moment, the Song Tan family started recruiting workers again in the brigade——
[It takes five or six people to cut golden cherry blossoms, including pruning and cutting, and requires nimble hands and feet, waist and legs]
The group became lively again.
However, compared with the few people in the past, this time there are obviously a few more mature men and women recruiting workers. They all came back from working during the Mid-Autumn Festival and did not plan to go back. In the past, everyone thought that they could still earn a few months' wages before the Chinese New Year. During the Mid-Autumn Festival,
They won't be willing to come back.
But that was before.
Ever since the old Song family made a big move in the spring of this year, they have hired people to work every now and then. Sometimes the salary is tens of dollars, and sometimes it is hundreds. Counting it here and there, they hire people for five or six days out of ten.
Man. And that’s not even counting the mountain work!
The elders in the village may not know a lot of words, but they are smarter than anyone else in calculating accounts!
Although the old Song family is unstable, there are only so many people in the village, and they are the ones doing the work back and forth. Even if they don't work for a month, they can still earn two to three thousand yuan. How about going out to work?
Six to seven thousand a month is a salary for young people. In other words, the able-bodied laborers in their village are basically over fifty. At this age, high-paying factories do not accept them now. Those who are willing to accept them
In the factory, working day shift and night shift for ten hours a day probably only costs 4,000 yuan a month. In addition, the food and accommodation in the factory are not suitable for...
In short, now that everyone is proficient in using mobile phones, they can also see the news about the old Song family's recruitment. The old parents at home are settling accounts like this... No, the excited person will come back in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
As soon as the job recruitment information was posted in the group, an unprecedented 8 people signed up!
It can be seen that it was not easy to gather so many people to work in the past.
Ulan, on the other hand, held up his cell phone and smiled happily: "Hey, I was expecting that in the next few days we wouldn't be able to find that many people for transplanting seedlings on the mountain. Now look, three or four of us will come back from work in the village!"
She is now a qualified rural HR, and she does not panic at all when there are more applicants.
At this moment, he did not hesitate to call out to several middle-aged villagers: "You have just come back, rest for two days, and I will dig tree holes on the mountain the day after tomorrow and you will come. This is a laborious job, 220 hours a day, and I will take care of the food on the mountain at noon."
As soon as he said this, the three gentlemen who had just been rejected were no longer anxious at all.
The salary was quite satisfying at first, but when he heard that he still had to take care of a meal, the man with three dependents who were still working was instantly relieved.
What should I say? We are all from the countryside, so it’s not like we don’t know how to cook, but if we are going to eat alone, or go to the mountains to eat cooked by a chef, it is definitely better to eat what others have cooked.
However, compared to the folks in the village, it was Princess Yingjun, the four of them, and two little border collies who were overly smart and lively - Xiao Shi and Xiao Eleven - who were employed earlier.
There was nothing I could do, Baoer had too many names, so I had to omit some of their names when it was their turn.
There is no technical skill in growing the grass on the river bank, so it has already sprouted several inches of green buds. According to Professor Song, by early November at the latest, the first crop of this thing can even be harvested.
!
The first job of Yingjun is to guard the river beach to prevent it from being damaged by other things.
In addition, I also watched several newly built houses here.
The river beach is not suitable for building houses, but it is no problem to build a few cowsheds to protect them from wind, rain and frost. By the way, houses for several dogs have also been built.
Now they are paved with red bricks and straw, not to mention how comfortable they are! And they have been recuperating for so long, and now they are finally back to work. The dogs are in high spirits every day, not to mention how energetic they are!
As for pruning golden cherry blossoms on the mountain, the most painful thing is Guo Dong: "Why do we have to prune it now? Wait a little longer. Some of them can wait even longer!"
Song Tan laughed: "How much inventory have you accumulated? It's two different things to pay for everything you don't use this year. Why are you so reluctant to part with it?"
Guo Dong was heartbroken: "We may not all use them up this year, but won't there be new golden cherry blossoms after the Chinese New Year? We will have to wait until July or August at the earliest before they can be produced again, right?"
Like this year, when she harvested it in May and June, she wished she could only get three taels of dry goods a day, and had to get it every three to five. It was not until September that she finally harvested in a big way, and the inventory was full.
Now I see Song Tan arrange for people to hold big tea scissors and push them all the way. What a pity that there are scattered pieces that are not fully mature!
Song Tan shook his head: "It's almost enough. It will take at least half a month to mature. I need cuttings all around the mountain. Now is the time when roots are most likely to take root. There is no time to delay."
It’s not that they won’t survive if they wait a little longer, but they will basically stop growing when the weather gets cold. It will be difficult to grow to a large size by next spring, and there will be no way to build a simple defense line around the mountain.
Guo Dong thought about it and it was true.
And next year, the entire outside of the mountain will be covered with golden cherry blossoms, so she can not only stock up on goods, but she can even become a second-tier dealer selling medicinal materials!
Although her golden cherry seeds are among the most expensive in the industry, the effect is completely different from ordinary ones! Anyone with a discerning eye will never miss it after trying the medicinal properties!
Thinking about it this way, the scattered fruits on the branches were no longer attractive to Guo Dong. She even asked:
"Is it enough to invite five people? Do you want more people to come and try to make the cuttings faster?"
Song Tan shook his head: "No, the weather has been very good during this period. The difference between one day earlier and one day later is not that big. These five aunts who often work are quick and not lazy, and the time of a week is almost the same."
But the branches of golden cherry trees are full of thorns, and ordinary anti-prick gloves have no feeling at all. If you want to do this job very fast, it is really not easy. How about giving me a price of 120 a day?
For the aunts who often come to work, this job requires a little attention, but the salary is good and not tiring, which is already good!
No, they came here early in the morning, put on their gloves, picked up the scissors, and while chatting, they picked out the branches that were piled in the yard that were not that old.
The golden cherry blossoms are full of vitality, and the weather is just right now. There is no need to do much processing at all. You only need to cut them into sections, then carry the basket up the mountain, and separate a section for each person to cut them at will.
Zhang Yanping doesn't have to make winter melons or wash beans for the time being. He rarely feels relaxed. Looking at the baskets of branches, he can't help but sigh:
"How beautiful it will be when it blooms next spring and summer! Do you want me to contact a few photography teams? Next spring and summer, even if you don't go into the mountains, just use the golden cherry blossoms as a wedding photo location in the periphery, it will definitely be special.
