Five-year-old cute baby: traveled back to ancient times and became a grandmother

Chapter 137 Don’t hurt me

Hire someone?

Lu Xiaohao thought Bai Tao was planning to hire someone to repair the bridge. This was a solution, but the weather was cold now, and cutting wood and moving mud would be more troublesome.

"Auntie, how many people do you want to hire, men and women?"

Lu Xiaohao wondered what kind of problem this was. Of course it was a man, how could a woman do these jobs?

"We're looking for women, about 30 to 50, some with nimble hands and feet, especially those with flexible fingers."

After glancing at the detailed description in the mall, Bai Tao added, "It has to be between fifteen and twenty years old."

Bai Dashan responded and went down. Lu Xiaohao beside him was puzzled: "Miss Bai, why do you want these people?"

"Work for me!"

After saying that, Bai Tao walked towards the river.

Lu Xiaohao had nothing to do, so he followed.

"Manager Bai..."

"They are really thinking badly. They have to sign a labor contract and work for a maximum of ten days. If they work for that long, they can forget about it."

This requires finding a way to earn some food, and exchanging work for food is a way to save food for the family.

Your smiles are dim, and people who know you would think that you are waiting not for work but for food.

It is impossible to build the bridge. The Qingquan River will be frozen in a few days. We will just cross the river directly then.

There are a lot of qinxin grass by the Qingquan River, so the whole river can be frozen for half a month.

Bai Xiaoshan's wife put her hands on her hips and said, "What's wrong with a man? How can a man be able to work? Was he born by a man..."

When Bai Xiaoshan saw it, he frowned. Why were there only a few women, and they were young at that?

Some people even shouted: "You, you, you, you might have done it."

In the current weather, who knows when it will freeze, so Bai Xiaoshan feels that ten days is too much.

When we heard that the Xingyuan caravan was going to camp by the river, everyone followed and looked for a place nearby.

Moreover, along the way, the people of the Baijiabao caravan were extremely well-behaved. They glanced at the young girl and the eldest daughter-in-law sideways when they passed by them, which made people very worried.

Bai Xiaoshan: "There is a small probability that it is."

Our family has always been a member of the Baijiabao caravan. At that time, our family gathered together, and the two of them told the matter, and Mrs. Bai Tao was eager to try it.

My aunt said that we should wait until the river freezes over and become walkable before crossing it.

No one asked: "Why do you want to find a man? What can a man do?"

Bai Xiaoshan: "Of course I hired someone to do the work."

Even if I didn't mean any other thing, I still dared to complain. What if I offended the people from the Xingyuan Gardening Caravan? It would be a disaster if I couldn't buy anything on the way.

Poor families hate to go out and pick people when there is a disaster. People are cheap at that time, and even if they pay money and provide food, they can still pick a suitable person to bring back to their home.

The villagers are still afraid of being entangled, their eyes are squinting with different purposes, don't get close to me!

"It has to be someone between seventeen and seventy years old, with nimble hands and feet, and capable."

The Zhou family was praised by everyone, so the eight sisters held hands and ran to line up happily.

Lu Xiaohao was puzzled, but he was relieved that she didn't fall into the river out of mischief.

Looking for a man?

Bai Xiaoshan has also made few explanations, and there are no bad explanations. When hiring people for a job, you should naturally find the most suitable one.

They all have two shoulders to carry a head, but there are some jobs that are really only suitable for men.

The ancient idea is right there. If he wanted to buy people, those people might refuse if they were a little bit determined.

what?

Bai Tao's wife: "Can it be smaller? A smaller one has no experience and will work worse and slower."

Some pawnbrokers would also take advantage of years of disaster to buy people. Normally they might buy one for eight or seven taels, but during years of disaster, they could buy two for one tael.

Zhou Qing also said: "Take Guoguo and Cuicui down, you two are old enough." Yesterday was exactly seventeen, that was really bad luck.

That was a year of disaster. Not to mention paying ten cents a day, even if you paid, you couldn't even afford two meals a day and no one would have fought for it.

If the mall hadn't reminded her, Bai Tao would never have known that these things by the river that look like reeds have this function and can be sold for a lot of money.

Zhou Guoguo and Zhou Cuicui also looked delighted. Who would have known that the food in the Baijiabao caravan was bad along the way?

Seeing that his parents were about to quarrel again, Zhou Meimei on the side quickly said: "Dad, go ahead. You are eighteen years old."

"Ten cents a day, for two meals."

Those who have poor family conditions and feel sorry for their men will naturally refuse, but there are still fewer poor people.

Bai Tao: "He meets the requirements. Shopkeeper Bai said that he must be between 17 and 70 years old."

I am a little man, so naturally I looked at the hands of young girls and wives one by one, so I brought my own wife and a few capable women from outside the village.

As soon as those words came out, the crowd was immediately in an uproar.

"You hired men to do the work that time. Those who are not interested should line up at the side. You have to check them and see if they are qualified before you hire them."

If the people in Taohua Village knew about the complaints made by the villagers, they would definitely hum in their hearts and say, "You are just kidding. Stop working so hard."

"You, you eat a lot too, Shopkeeper Bai, you can eat even more."

"Boss Bai, are they planning to stay there for the next ten days?"

Ten days?

Slowly, a bunch of people raised their hands and waved excitedly, trying to attract attention.

Xing Yuan and Zhou Qing were also outside the crowd. After listening to what was said, they looked at each other and slowly squeezed out of the crowd.

What can a man do!

"Yes, yes, yes, you asked first, you have other intentions."

Bai Tao picked a few pieces of Qinxin grass and returned to the camp.

Bai Tao: "He is more than just a little smaller."

After hearing that, the women who came with Bai Xiaoshan to choose the man were immediately happy. They actually liked the man. You ladies have to say that men also hold up half the sky.

But hiring someone to do the work, especially a man, is something that one needs to think about.

The crowd that had originally raised their hands became a little confused when they heard this.

"My child is my father. You go and work for a few days. He will take care of it during the days outside the house."

"Boss Bai, look at you. You eat a lot."

The Xingyuan Caravan was very fierce in killing bandits and also indirectly protected others, which made my family have a good impression of them.

This grass has a special function, which is to make water condense into ice at a specific time.

At that time, Bai Xiaoshan brought people to pick people.

The qinxincao is a plant unique to Qingquan River. Its branches look like reeds, but it is different from reeds in that it blooms small flowers similar to forsythia.

When they heard that they had to sign a contract and that the work would last for ten days, no one asked about it.

This person probably also expected that the question would cause such a small reaction. When Bai Xiaoshan's wife spoke, Bai Xiaoshan on the side squeaked, and I waved my hands repeatedly.

Just a second ago, I remembered something, and quickly raised my hand to suppress it, saying, "Little guy, be quiet. If you hire someone to do the work, you need a man, not a woman."
