At the beginning of summer in the Northeast, the heat is so suffocating that it feels like there is a fire.

That kind of stuffy heat makes people feel uncomfortable and helpless.

Although the weather was hot, Li Zhongxin still followed his agreement and stayed under the crooked neck tree in front of the village entrance of Zhubantun, waiting to play with his friends who had come from poor families.

After waiting for more than half an hour, Li Zhongxin finally got all the friends he had agreed to.

He led them to drink some cold well water in Dong Zhiguo, not far from the village entrance, and after giving some instructions, he led them to the riverside.

Li Zhongxin and Wang Bo stood on a large rock by the river that was almost as tall as him, overlooking the friends who often played together and were not close friends. He slowly raised his two small hands and pressed the air twice to signal.

The slightly noisy friends below calmed down.

After glancing around at the hopeful friends, Li Zhongxin lowered his hand, poked the listless Wang Bo with his right hand, and asked Wang Bo to start lecturing the children below.

Wang Bo was stunned by Li Zhongxin's stab. He glanced at Li Zhongxin with disdain, and then glanced at the children below. Then he spoke slowly: "I am Li Zhongxin's third uncle, Wang Bo.

The person in charge of this place, if nothing else happens, you will be under my management from now on.

You are all friends of Li Zhongxin, and I have opportunities to make money here for you. I hope you can make some money to improve your life and subsidize some family expenses."

Seeing the children below showing joy on their faces and starting to whisper to each other, Wang Bo's face sank, he changed the topic and said seriously: "Be quiet."

After seeing the children calm down, Wang Bo said sternly: "It's nothing to lead you to make some money to improve your life, but while leading you to improve your life, you must abide by the rules I have set.

As the ancients said, there is no rule without rules. In school, you listen to the teacher, but here you must listen to my command.

It's summer vacation now, and the weather is very hot. As long as you want to make money with me, you must obey my arrangements. You must not swim in the river, you must not fight over work, you must not...

…”

After Wang Bo finished reading according to the script, he took Li Zhongxin's hand and jumped off the big rock when he didn't look at the children.

After walking around the rocks with Li Zhongxin, he directed Dong Zhiguo to lead people to the river with him, while giving Li Zhongxin an angry look.

Li Zhongxin remembers very clearly that when he was about to graduate from elementary school, seven or eight half-year-old children drowned by the Songhua River in Jiangcheng.

In the 1980s, we were both spiritually and materially deprived. During the summer vacation, children without adult supervision at home would go to the river or play in a few big pools on the river in groups. Many children drowned every year.

There are always five or six of them.

Although Li Zhongxin wanted to give his friends the opportunity to make money and eat good food, Li Zhongxin would never let these former playmates be in any danger in such a situation.

As for the following rules about not being able to fight harshly, Li Zhongxin had his own ideas.

At this time, there were more than ten people he came to pick fish, and most of them were not classmates. After all, their classmates were too young, and almost all of them were not from the same school. If a fight really broke out, it would be really difficult for him to handle it.

Among these people, the living conditions at home are poor and it is even difficult for them to eat well at home.

Coming here to pick fish was a benefit that Li Zhongxin gave these friends in 1982. He did not want his rebirth to affect these friends around him too much.

The amount of money Li Zhongxin gave to his classmates and neighborhood friends from poor families was not very high. He knew in his heart that giving too much money was not a good thing.

The daily income of an adult who hangs fish and pulls the net is about one yuan, and no effort is needed to pick fish. Li Zhongxin set the amount of money for these classmates and friends at 5 cents per person per day, and subsidizes some fish.

The standard of subsidy is basically the same as that for adults. For every day of fishing, a river fish of about one pound is given. In other words, everyone can take home a meal of fish, which can satisfy the adults in the family.

Improving their diet can save them from the pain of not being able to keep up with their nutrition.

In addition, Li Zhongxin also asked these classmates and friends to prepare lunch boxes so that they could eat lunch together with the adults who were fishing.

Although the standard of food is not high, every meal includes fish and seasonal vegetables, and they have enough dry food to eat noodles. This is the best benefit Li Zhongxin gave them.

Li Zhongxin had never used women and children before, because Li Zhongxin felt that fishing was on the riverside, and it was inconvenient for women and children to do such things on the riverside, and it was suspected of employing women and children.

At this time, the women in the villages were incomparable with the women of later generations. Not only did they have to work in the fields like men, feeding chickens and ducks, but they also had to take care of the elderly and children at home, wash and cook, and even Li Zhongxin had one

I have a feeling that the women in the villages have a harder time than the men in the villages.

Now those odd jobs that have not been signed are no longer available, and some women and children are being used to pick fish.

But Li Zhongxin didn't expect that using these women and children would actually be more efficient than the previous odd jobs.

Wang Bo complained a lot about Li Zhongxin's behavior. If this brat had given a speech, it would have been better than what he said. However, this brat left all the rules and regulations to him.

It took him two days of practice at home to achieve the same results as before.

This brat leaves all the things that offend others to him and all the good things to sell to himself.

Not only did he get a group of baby soldiers, but he also got a group of old women, who were just trying to trick him into killing his rhythm.

The child soldiers were ignorant and difficult to manage, so he and Dong Zhiguo needed to spend time to look after them. They had to call their names every day without saying anything, and they were also responsible for their safety on the riverside.

The matter of picking fish needs to be taught step by step several times before these children can fully master it.

The work of moving and resisting was originally done by odd jobs, but now it became a group of children, and Wang Bo and Dong Zhiguo had no choice but to do it themselves.

Although those rural women are capable, once rural women form a group, there will be many things that will cause problems for the east and the west.

To put it bluntly, the folks in the village have unhappy faces. Let’s put it lightly! They don’t take what you say seriously at all.

Li Zhongxin, this little brat, was good. He was a hands-off shopkeeper. He didn't do anything but didn't talk, and it caused him a lot of trouble.

Although Wang Bo felt very upset, he still managed to hold on.

After all, Li Zhongxin's daily salary for him and Dong Zhiguo had been increased to two big wages. For those two big wages, he and Dong Zhiguo had to work hard.

Fortunately, Zhongxin Company gave us money very quickly, and the lunch meal was particularly good. No one was looking for trouble or doing anything stupid. The fishing efficiency actually increased instead of falling, and was even more efficient than when those odd jobs were around.
