Her words made Mrs. Su and Mrs. Liu stunned for a while.
These three girls spoke as if they were family members, and they showed no mercy.
When Ah Zi saw it, she stuck out her tongue and stopped making any sound.
After dinner, Su Mu held a special meeting for the servants at home.
Six girls and five servants stood in a row and looked at her.
Su Mu dragged her plump body and stood in front of several people. Although her face was ugly due to her fatness, her serious and serious expression looked more pleasing to the eye.
"We are all old people in the Su family. I put my words here today. I want to raise chickens. This matter is imperative. You all know the current situation of the Su family. I am very grateful to you for your willingness to stay in the Su family.
, However, the family does not need so many servants now, so if you are willing to stay, you must raise chickens and farm with me, and the wages will be double your usual wages. If you want to leave, I will never blame you.
you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Liang nodded in agreement without thinking, "I, Chen Liang, was rescued by the master. Therefore, I am a member of the Su family when I am born, and my soul is the soul of the Su family when I die."
Chen Liang is usually the smartest and most respected person among these servants. Everyone sees that he is willing to stay, so it must be true. Moreover, it is not easy to find a job now, and the Su family does not treat them well.
Bo, now I’m offering twice the wages, why don’t you agree?
Therefore, Liu Cheng, Xiao Luo, Xiao Wu and Zhuang Zi also wanted to stay.
Su Mu turned to look at the girls again, "You have to think about it. Although I will not let you girls collect chicken manure, the work of feeding chickens is not easy. At least until the Su family grows, you
It’s going to be a bit tiring.”
These girls are a little hesitant. They really don't want to do these menial jobs. However, there is no other job to find at the moment. If they go home, they will be sold to other owners. If they meet a good one, they will be sold.
Okay, if you encounter something bad, you might as well feed the chickens here, at least you will get more money.
Thinking of this, Azi was the first to speak, "If I don't leave, I will be wherever Miss Third is. I can do any rough work."
Hearing her say this, the other girls looked at each other and nodded, "Yes, we are not leaving either, we are staying."
Now that everyone is staying, Su Mu feels confident.
"Okay, in that case, let's do as I told you. Right now, we need to build the chicken coop first. Chen Liang, you are responsible for purchasing the materials to build the house. I will pull out the list later."
Chen Liang nodded in agreement.
"Zhuangzi, go to the city to find a craftsman and negotiate a good price. It can't be too high, just the normal price."
Zhuangzi also nodded in agreement.
"Liu Cheng, you are responsible for going to the surrounding people's homes to look after the hens, and also pick out some good-quality roosters to keep for breeding. Write down who has them all in each village, and I will take a look later."
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Luo, you two go to the nearby villages to see who has land for rent. Make a note of it. It's best to buy more."
After the five men had finished giving orders, she told the girls: "You guys, you and I will go to the wasteland to pull weeds and tidy up later. Our chicken coop needs to be built as quickly as possible. It should be completed as soon as possible."
, you can make money earlier.”
When several girls heard this, they all clamored to go back and change clothes.
Mrs. Su had been sitting in the yard without speaking, but her eyes were fixed on Su Mu. Her eyes told her that Sanya had changed, but she couldn't believe her own eyes. She even wondered if her old eyes were dizzy.
?
Su Mu arranged everything, came to sit next to her, and waved the cattail leaf fan for her, "Grandma, is this arrangement appropriate for me?"
Mrs. Su waved her hand, signaling her to stop, "Sanya, your performance surprised grandma, but since grandma asked you to be in charge, naturally I will listen to you in everything, just go ahead and do it without asking for anything.
Worry, I don’t have enough money, I have it here.”
"Grandma, I did a rough calculation. We need five hundred taels of silver to build two chicken coops first, and then buy five hundred hens, which will cost about one hundred taels. We will also need to buy some grain, plus some miscellaneous expenses, and it will cost one thousand taels.
Come on, I have enough money here, don’t touch the delicate things in grandma’s hands unless absolutely necessary.”
Mrs. Su didn't believe what she said. When did Sanya, who saw wealth as much as her life, think about her family so much? She didn't even want to give her any money?
Is this really something? She suddenly grew up?
Although she thought this way, the old lady felt somewhat uneasy.
It is early spring now, and the weather is neither too hot nor too cool. The weather in the Eastern Jin Dynasty is generally like this. It is not too cold in winter, but it is extremely hot in summer. There are a few cool days in spring and autumn.
Su Mu'er brought the girls at home to pull weeds, and Min'er was sensible and came to help. Only Su Qing'er was lazy in the house and refused to come out. In this regard, she looked very much like the original Su Mu.
Working in such sultry weather, Su Muer actually felt like she had difficulty breathing.
This fat man loves to sweat, and with the exertion of physical strength, he will be sweating profusely after a while.
"Miss Third, you go and take a rest, we will do this work."
Azi came over and looked at her like this, feeling really distressed.
She stood up and wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve. Although she was an agricultural expert in her previous life and often went to the countryside, she had never done this kind of work before, especially the clumsy way of weeding, which made her somewhat uncomfortable.
Therefore, she thought about it all morning. After contracting the land, she must not farm in this stupid way. It was really time-consuming, labor-intensive and labor-intensive.
Over the past month, Su Muer got up every morning to exercise, and went to the back of the yard with her servants to participate in building chicken coops. Occasionally, she went to farmers' homes in the countryside to order hens. However, instead of losing less meat, she had more meat.
Got up.
She ate less breakfast. When the old lady saw her, she looked at her with some confusion.
"Why does Sanya only eat so little?"
"I don't want to eat. I'm eating more and more fat. Besides, I feel like I've lost my appetite in the past few days."
"Is it because the weather is hot and you've been running outside all day, so you've got heat stroke? Or should you go see a doctor?"
Mother Liu is a little worried. After all, she is in charge of the family now. Not to mention whether she can support the Su family, it seems to be relatively stable at the moment. If she falls ill, what will the whole family do?
Su Mu also vaguely felt that there was something wrong with her body. She had been thinking about tea and food recently. Judging from the original owner's physical condition, this was definitely not a normal phenomenon.
So, after breakfast, she arranged for Chen Liang to watch the craftsmen at work, then took Ah Zi and asked Xiao Wu to drive them into the city and buy some things along the way.
It was not far from the city, so they arrived in the city in less than half an hour.
