   However, when recruiting workers, who should be recruited?

Someone like Han Xiaoyan who wants to make his own snacks is definitely not allowed.

But for now, who can keep their dim sum a secret?

Li Qiao and Tao Zhu discussed for a while, and it was not until noon the next day that they finally decided on the candidate.

At noon, Li Liang came and sprayed water on the wheat for making maltose.

Li Qiao then talked to him about recruiting workers.

"Brother, is Dashan willing to help? Thirty-five yuan a day, including food, and mainly doing some chores every day, such as folks who come to sell things, and he is responsible for weighing and keeping accounts." For a while, no reassuring person could be

found To make snacks, Na Liqiao could only get out of these chores.

The folks come here to sell things from time to time, which affects his work.

The reason why Li Dashan was chosen was because the child had a good character, and secondly, when Li Liang went bankrupt to pay the original gambling debts, the marriage that Li Dashan was optimistic about was blown away. And uncle rotten.

The original body messed up Li Dashan's marriage, and Li Dashan didn't complain, and still treated Yuanchen like his uncle.

Yuanshen has no face or skin, and doesn't take this child's lifelong event seriously.

But Li Qiao was embarrassed.

Therefore, when he wanted to recruit people now, he thought of Li Dashan.

If Li Dashan had a stable and good job, it would definitely be easier to talk about marriage than now.

Of course, there is one more important point:

Li Dashan was literate.

Li Dashan and Yuanchen are two years apart, and they had a good relationship when they were young, and Yuanchen taught Li Dashan how to read.

But the children of the peasant family have to work since they were young, so Li Dashan's daily study time is very short, and the original body only comes back once a month, and he is fascinated by the colorful world of the county town, so this teaching did not last. too long.

But Li Dashan knew how to read. Although he didn't have many characters, he still had the ability to write a few characters with missing arms and legs.

Therefore, it seems that Li Qiao and Tao Zhu finally want Li Dashan to come and help.

Of course, this has to be agreed by Li Liang Wang Osmanthus.

After all, at Li Dashan's age, he is already considered a strong laborer in the countryside, and he can do any physical work. Especially Li Liang Wang Osmanthus is also making maltose.

"Ah? Let Dashan come over, thirty-five cents a day? Isn't that too high!"

Li Liang was startled when he heard this, and immediately waved his hands.

"Now that the wheat is harvested at home, all that remains is threshing and drying. If you are too busy, just ask him to help. You don't need to pay any wages." Although his family grows a lot of wheat, but later there

are In addition, in the first few days, the villagers helped his family cut a lot of wheat in order to test the performance of the wheat sickle, so this year his family's wheat was cut early.

The rest of the work is not so urgent, Dashan can come to help.

Hearing this, Li Qiao knew that Li Liang was not being polite, that's what he thought.

Li Qiao also shook his head: "How can we not pay wages, Dashan has reached the age of marriage, it's time for him to earn some money so that he can marry a wife or husband."

"No need, no need, isn't the family going to make maltose soon? We've started a small business, so are you afraid that you won't be able to marry your husband?" "The income

from maltose belongs to you and my sister-in-law, and the wages I give to Dashan belong to Dashan himself. You and sister-in-law can't go there."

Knowing that Li Liang was doing it for his own good, Li Qiao tried to persuade him patiently.

Li Liang couldn't agree with him, so he could only agree, but he still felt that thirty-five Wen a day was too high. You must know that a strong long-term worker like Wang Xiuying could only get a high wage of thirty-five Wen a day when the wheat was harvested in autumn.

But now Dashan can get a higher salary of thirty-five Wen just by calling things and keeping accounts!

Dashan is not worthy of the job.

After Li Liang left for a while, Li Dashan came.

As soon as he came over, Li Qiao first asked him if he had eaten.

Knowing that he hadn't had time to eat yet, Tao Zhu happened to have already made lunch, so he let him eat first.

Tao Zhu made oil-splashed noodles. Although it was his first time making it, he was very talented and devoted 100% of his attention, so the taste was very authentic.

Li Dashan ate a small pot of oil-splashed noodles and was very satisfied.

His brother Zhu's cooking skills are not inferior to his mother's at all, but in his house, cooking is not like this on weekdays.

His mother was reluctant to let their brothers eat such whole white noodles with their stomachs open, because the three brothers were all growing up, and if they opened their stomachs, they could eat ten catties of noodles for a meal and couldn't hold back.

Therefore, his noodles are all multigrain noodles, with only a small amount of flour.

As for such oily noodles, his mother is even more reluctant, it is lard!

"Uncle, you don't need to pay me, just take care of the food like this." He said to Li Qiao with a smile.

"It's absolutely necessary for you to eat in one bite. Here, carry the basket, you go to cut the wormwood and bring back the youngest leaves." Li Qiao stuffed the basket to him.

"Wormwood? What are you doing cutting wormwood at this time?" Li Dashan was very puzzled while clutching the basket.

"For snacks, hurry up, you have to go up the mountain to cut down small trees when you come back, I want to build a shed." Li Qiao pointed to the three stoves.

"...Okay." Li Dashan trotted up the mountain, clutching his pannier.

The folks who came to Li Qiao's house to sell things saw that Li Qiao was going around arranged by Li Dashan, so they praised Li Dashan a few words, saying that he was diligent.

Unexpectedly, Li Qiao announced with a smile that he hired Li Dashan for thirty-five yuan a day, and did all kinds of chores.

Li Qiao's words caused countless exclamations.

What?

Just hired Wang Xiuying to carry water, and now Li Dashan?

And just doing such a little work, they are paid thirty-five Wen a day? !

Li Qiao is so generous!

The dealer did not pay such a high wage.

Li Qiao is really rich!

Sure enough, he is the person who does business with Mochizuki Tower.

Li Qiao is so kind to his own people!

The couple of Li Liang and Wang Guihua finally had their fortunes. Years of painstaking efforts were not in vain. Li Qiao knew that he had repaid his favor, so he was envious!

The villagers looked at Li Qiao even more fieryly, and recommended themselves one after another. They can do any kind of work. If Li Qiao recruits workers again, he must think of them!

Li Qiao nodded. If there is a suitable job in the future, he will definitely consider the folks.

But for now, he still has to stick to his own home.

Li Dashan saw that his brother-in-law, Li Qiao, paid him such a high salary, so he naturally worked hard. It only took him and Li Qiao Taozhu three days to build the shed.

This shed is not very big, it is fifty square meters, covered with wormwood and wheat straw, and covered with a layer of mud.

This method is rough, but Li Qiao doesn't have enough money at the moment, so he can only deal with it in this way first.

After earning money, I will build a magnificent green brick house and build a clean workshop.

In the catering business, hygiene is more important than taste.

After the shed is built, the new snacks will naturally be transferred to the shed.

In the past three days, Li Qiao has already made steamed cakes and wheat starch—wheat starch is needed to make Qingtuan.

Because manpower is limited, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu do not plan to do more, and do less trial sales first.

In addition to Li Qiao and Tao Zhu making new dim sum, Li Liang and Wang Guihua also started making maltose.

The location is naturally at Li Qiao's house.

However, since Li Dashan is now working at Li Qiao's house, the elders did not hide it from him and let him participate.

Li Dashan didn't know until then that his uncle had given the business of maltose to his parents!

Now he was in a hurry. He thought that the thirty-five Wen copper coins that were paid every day were too much, but now he felt that the copper coins were too hot!

"Uncle, you gave too much, don't pay me any more wages in the future." He pulled Li Qiao aside, wanting Li Qiao to change his decision.

"The maltose business belongs to your parents, and the money you earn must be distributed to your three brothers and Xiaolan, not just to you." Seeing that

Li Dashan wanted to refute, Li Qiao raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: " This is for you alone, you save money quickly, if you don't get married, my conscience won't rest."

Li Dashan: "..."

He scratched his head, "If word of my father and mother's maltose business spread, there must be someone Many people came to my door to say goodbye to me."

"It belongs to your parents too. Don't make me waste your time, and don't be lazy, go pull candy!" Li Qiao urged him.

This time Li Liang and Wang Guihua made a lot of maltose, most of which were for him, and this part of the maltose syrup should be put directly into the jar.

If he makes snacks, he doesn't need to melt them again.

The other half is ready for trial sale.

So you need sugar, you have to cut it into pieces.

Li Dashan also knew that his brother-in-law was saying the same thing now, seeing this, he could only go back and pull candy obediently.

Forget it, he will work harder and more diligently in the future, and he must be worthy of his uncle's wages.

So, when the folks came to Li Qiao's house to sell things again the next day, Li Qiao advertised Li Liang and Wang Guihua's malt candy.

It happened that Li Dashan was working at his house, so Li Qiao got a bench, and on the bench was a clean pottery pot, which contained maltose made by Li Liang and Wang Osmanthus fragrans.

Maltose in the county town sells for 200 yuan a catty, and there is no market for this price in the countryside.

Therefore, according to the negotiation between Li Qiao and Li Liang Wang Guihua, the price of their maltose is 100 Wen per catty.

In fact, Li Qiao wanted to set the price at 120 Wen a catty, because pulling candy is hard work after all.

But Li Liang and Wang Guihua felt that 120 Wen a catty was too expensive, and they had a bad conscience, thinking that this was cheating the folks. In fact, they also felt that 100 Wen a catty was too expensive. According to their thinking, since the cost of maltose is Twenty-five cents a catty, so selling fifty cents a catty would make a lot of money.

But Li Qiao felt that the cost of twenty-five cash only included wheat and glutinous rice, without counting labor. If it was sold for fifty cash, the price would be too low.

Moreover, if the maltose is made manually, after the whole process, there is actually not much maltose to be made. The output of maltose is already low, and if you give him most of it at a low price, how will Li Liang and Wang Guihua make money?

Therefore, the two sides made a compromise, and finally set a price of one hundred Wen per catty.

This is the selling price to outsiders.

The one sold to Li Qiao was finally settled at thirty-five cents a catty after a heated almost-argument last night.

After listening to Li Qiao's advertisement, the villagers were a little taken aback when they looked at the pottery pots beside Li Qiao and Li Dashan.

Li Liang and Wang Guihua actually started a maltose business?

This couple, can make maltose?

The news was so explosive and difficult to digest that the villagers repeatedly confirmed it.

When they learned that it was Li Qiao who taught Li Liang and Wang Guihua how to make maltose, everyone became petrified.

Li Qiao was nothing more than that to his parents.

How can people not be envious? !
