It was very quiet in the auditorium, and everyone was waiting patiently.
Sun Ergou held a roster in his hand, with names and wages he could receive written on it. As Sun Ergou finished speaking, an old man in his forties walked up happily.
Li Laosi and Sun Ergou were the first people to come to Xishan. However, Li Laosi was old, learned things very slowly, and did not have much energy to work, so he was not promoted to management, and the salary was very average.
.
"Coming~coming~"
Being the first to receive his wages, Li Laosi was a little nervous, but more excited than before when he made money.
"Is there any problem with this number?"
Sun Ergou looked at Li Laosi and asked seriously.
"Yes, yes, there's nothing wrong with it."
As for how much work he has done and how much money he can get, Li Laosi naturally calculates clearly in his heart. He used to say that he would be fooled if he could not calculate, but he also took night classes here in Xishan.
He was extremely attentive to the mathematics related to his wages, and he had done the calculations countless times.
"That's good, go get the money~"
Sun Ergou nodded with satisfaction. A steward had already counted out Li Laosi's salary. Li Laosi took out his identity card. The steward of Xishan also checked the identity card to make sure it was correct.
Only then did I send the money to Li Laosi.
Li Laosi took the wages and went over the amount over and over again. After confirming that no one made any mistakes, he pressed his fingerprint and settled the account with Xishan Coal.
"Qian Tietou~Receive money of 1245 Wen~"
"Zheng Waizui, get the money of 1250 Wen~"
"Chen Shuiwa, get the money 1509 Wen~"
Sun Ergou read a person's name, but he didn't misrecognize a word. You must know that a few months ago, he was still an illiterate, so what, he just fell over and didn't know which word it was.
But Sun Ergou has a very strong learning ability despite taking night classes every day. More importantly, he is willing to work hard and work hard. Others may go in one ear and out the other, but what they learned yesterday may be forgotten today.
But this Sun Ergou is different. He has firmly memorized all the words and knowledge he has learned. As long as he forgets something, he will privately go to the meeting people for advice. In just about 2 months
In a matter of seconds, he transformed from an illiterate person into a person who could read and write.
With this willingness to learn, he quickly stood out and was promoted to manager by Liu Jin. With repeated mentions, he is now considered a middle-level manager.
Many of the refugees who came with him, such as Li Sanzhi, Qian Tietou, and Zheng Waizui, were all ordinary workers. Only a few who were literate and good at mathematics were promoted to stewards and could
There are not many people like Sun Ergou who are promoted to mid-level managers.
Because he could read and write, Sun Ergou also changed his name to Sun Xin, which means it is like being reincarnated and living a new life. He is no longer the ignorant, illiterate Sun who only worried about three meals a day.
Ergou is Sun Xin, the steward here in Xishan, who can read and write, count and settle accounts, and manage people.
"Tian Erniu, get the money 893 Wen~"
Soon, Sun Ergou... no, Sun Xin read Tian Erniu's name.
When Tian Erniu heard this, he immediately became energetic, and he immediately went forward to pay for the change. The amount and money were both correct. Tian Erniu returned to his place carrying a heavy bag.
The people here in Xishan are very considerate in their work. They not only pay wages, but also provide everyone with a black cloth bag to hold money, which is nearly 900 copper coins, not even one tael of silver.
But these 900 copper coins are heavy, not only because of the weight, but also because of the sweat that has been shed during this period. This is the money I earned with my own hands and sweat.
"Zhao Houhou~Receive the money of 888 Wen~"
"Xiong Dasha~Receive money 4231 Wen~"
When Sun Xin read very loudly the amount that Xiong Dasha could receive, the originally quiet auditorium suddenly burst into exclamations of surprise.
In fact, the money received by everyone is almost the same. They have already compared it with each other. Even the first batch of refugees who came here can only receive more than 1,500 Wen at most. A very few can receive 2,000 Wen.
A person who works very hard and is very strong.
Now this person named Xiong Dasha was able to receive more than 4,000 Wen, which suddenly attracted everyone's attention, and they all wanted to see who this Xiong Dasha was. He actually had several times more money than everyone else.
"Silly Bear~I'm calling you~"
Tian Erniu looked at Silly Xiong, who was still stupid, and quickly spoke out.
"Ah~ It's my turn~"
Silly Bear was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and happily went forward to collect his wages.
In fact, he was counting his own numbers just now, but others were stupid and couldn't learn things, let alone arithmetic. He was always confused when he calculated over and over again.
"It turns out to be that stupid big guy~ No wonder."
When they saw Silly Bear, everyone in the auditorium suddenly felt relieved.
"This stupid bear is the best at eating. Each person can eat five or six meals per meal. This work is also very powerful, stronger than an ox. It is also the most tiring and profitable job of carrying coal.
I can lift nearly 200 kilograms at a time. The key is that I can still walk like flying. I can't say anything for more than 4,000 yuan. It would be really amazing if I could be converted into a formal job."
"Tsk tsk, this silly bear is really as strong as his name suggests, as strong as a bear~"
Everyone looked at the silly bear in front of them. This silly bear could no longer be described as tall. He was more than 2 meters tall, with one arm as thick as a human thigh. He was full of muscles and had a strong back and waist. Sun Xin next to him compared with him.
, the whole person is like a child, very short.
However, Silly Bear was smiling stupidly at this time. People like him are not loved by parents at home, for no other reason than that they are so edible that it is really difficult to raise them.
But here in Xishan, he can not only eat well, but also make money. The key is that no one dislikes him for being able to eat. On the contrary, everyone is very envious of him, saying that not only can he eat, but he also has the strength to work. This one
One person can do the work of five or six people and earn five or six people's money.
Although he is called Silly Bear, he is not really stupid. He can still distinguish between good and bad. He likes everything here in Xishan very much. Even when it comes to the New Year holiday, he doesn't want to go home.
However, he still decided to go home with Tian Erniu, Sun Houhou and the others, for no other reason than to go back and tell those who disliked him that he, Silly Bear, could not only eat but also make money, making more money than others.
