"Please save Daya, please save our old Zhang family. I can endure any hardships and suffer any sins. I kowtow to you..."
When Li Yuanjing came outside, Zhang Kun seemed to be grasping at the last straw, kowtowing to Li Yuanjing desperately, for fear that Li Yuanjing would reject him.
"Brother Zhang, how could this happen..."
Li Yuanjing hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang Kun up, and instantly felt Zhang Kun's trembling body, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Just a day ago, Zhang Kun still looked like a human being even though he had lost his spirit, but now...
This is such a shitty world.
"Yuan Jing, brother, please, please..."
After Zhang Kun was helped up by Li Yuanjing, he struggled to kneel down again. His whole body was a bit out of shape.
One can imagine.
How depressed, how helpless, and how painful he feels now.
"Brother Zhang, it's okay for me to save Daya, but have you ever thought about it? I saved Daya today, but what about tomorrow? You still owe a lot of foreign debt."
"Brother Zhang, tell me, you might as well work with me, I will give you wages every month. As long as you work hard, I guarantee that your wages will be indispensable."
"In this way, even if the creditor comes to ask you for a debt, you can withdraw your salary in advance and advance it."
Li Yuanjing helped Zhang Kun up with more force, and his tone quickly became serious.
"Forehead?"
Zhang Kun was not stupid after all, he immediately realized it and couldn't help but said with great joy:
"Yuan Jing, no, my boss, my boss, whatever you say is yours, I, Zhang Kun, will listen..."
After saying that, he kowtowed to Li Yuanjing.
Next to her, Yu Niang wanted to persuade Li Yuanjing not to be so indifferent. After all, they were all neighbors, but Li Yuanjing gave Yu Niang a cold look and told her to step aside.
This little girl doesn't understand the principle of "promoting rice and benevolence against rice and enmity", nor does she understand the way to control people and the complexity of human nature. Li Yuanjing has a clear idea.
He said coldly:
"Brother Zhang, from now on, you will be my family's long-term worker. For this first month, the salary is tentative. But I will take care of your food every day."
"If your performance is up to standard in the future, I will not only take care of your food, but I will also pay you your monthly salary on time, no less than five hundred yuan."
"Five, five hundred coins?"
Zhang Kun was shocked and said hurriedly:
"My boss, I can't do it, I can't do it. I'm a cripple now, so at most a hundred cash is enough."
According to the market conditions around Fengcheng County, even a strong adult laborer's monthly salary is only about 300 yuan.
As for a disabled person like Zhang Kun, whose injuries have not yet been cured, he would normally not be able to find a job, and he would not be able to use the extra money, so he could only help out.
There are too many people displaced by various disasters.
All those shopkeepers are smarter than monkeys. Isn’t it nice to be a gangster who can do the work of cattle and horses for disaster victims with just some dog food?
At this time, Li Yuanjing actually offered Zhang Kun a monthly salary of 500 yuan. How could he not be shocked?
Zhang Kun wanted to explain something else, but Li Yuanjing waved his hand and said:
"Brother Zhang, I know the salary I have set, so don't argue anymore. However, I have to explain the rules here to you clearly."
"Brother Zhang, you are a soldier, so you should know what you can and cannot say, right?"
Zhang Kun nodded hurriedly:
"My boss, I know, I know, I swear on my head, even if you ask me to kill people and set fires, I will never say a word."
"In that case, let's sign the contract. Brother Zhang, wait a moment while I write the contract."
Li Yuanjing patted Zhang Kun on the shoulder and went directly to the room to get pen and ink.
After all, he is a scholar, so Li Yuanjing still has some pen, ink, paper and inkstone at home.
soon.
Li Yuanjing wrote the first modern employment contract of the Qian Dynasty, and then both he and Zhang Kun signed and stamped their signatures on the contract.
It was only then that Zhang Kun breathed a sigh of relief and instinctively bent down to pay respect to Li Yuanjing.
beside.
Seeing Li Yuanjing's few words, Zhang Kun, a seven-foot man, bowed his head and listened. Many little stars could not stop flashing in Yu Niang's beautiful eyes.
My brother is indeed a scholar, he just has a way.
In just a few words, not only did the Zhang family's problems be solved, but a hero like Brother Zhang, who had killed Tatars, became a long-term employee of their family...
…
I gave Zhang Kun a few fish and asked him to go back to replenish his body and have a good rest before coming back tomorrow.
After Li Yuanjing and Yu Niang had dinner, the girl went to clean up the fish basket in an obedient and sensible manner.
Looking at the pretty little girl, Li Yuanjing couldn't help but smile.
He suddenly liked this era a little bit.
In future generations, I would not even dare to think about this...
Because there was already a lot of fish in stock at home, and Li Yuanjing was in urgent need of cash to pay off his debts, after thinking for a while, he decided not to go fishing tonight, and directly started to pack the equipment needed to analyze the sugar.
In fact, the method of analyzing sugar is very simple. A pot, a funnel, and a few utensils are enough.
But in this era, there was obviously no "Tiangong Kaiwu", and people in the Qian Dynasty naturally did not understand its production methods.
According to Yu Niang, white snow sugar only comes from the little bit of icing sugar when boiling brown sugar. It really takes hundreds of kilograms to get just that little bit.
However, the taste and appearance of white sugar are obviously much better than that of brown sugar. The dignitaries also need to show off and show off their style. When the demand exceeds the supply, how can this thing not be expensive?
It’s no wonder that Zhang Liang, the second eldest son of the Zhang family, almost had his family ruined because of a few taels of white snow candy.
but……
Li Yuanjing always felt that something was wrong with Zhang Liang, as if he was a little too deliberate...
But Li Yuanjing was like a mud bodhisattva crossing the river at this time - he couldn't save himself, and he didn't have time to think too much.
soon.
He packed everything up.
Seeing that it was already dark and it was impossible for anyone to come, Li Yuanjing locked the courtyard door directly and began to boil brown syrup in the house.
"ah."
"Brother, what are you doing? It smells so fragrant and sweet..."
Yu Niang's little girl's nose is still very good, and she smelled it quickly. She ran to Li Yuanjing to look at it. Her big eyes like stars had already betrayed her desire for these sweet things.
Li Yuanjing patted her pussy dotingly:
"This is a good treasure. Come, have a taste."
Li Yuanjing continued to slowly stir the slightly formed syrup with a wooden spoon, and at the same time used another wooden spoon to pour a little for Yu Niang.
Yuniang took the wooden spoon handed over by Li Yuanjing, smelled the sweet smell inside, and then looked at Li Yuanjing, her beautiful eyes almost melted:
"Thank you brother..."
Li Yuanjing looked at Yu Niang's cute little appearance and felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment in his heart.
This little girl has gradually become accustomed to treating herself as her support.
He simply asked Yu Niang to lean against him, and the two of them continued to boil the syrup while whispering.
The quality of the dry firewood picked up by Yu Niang was obviously very good, which kept the stove fire going. In about half an hour, the brown syrup in the pot had already achieved the effect Li Yuanjing wanted.
Whether it is the melting degree or the viscosity, it will be good.
Li Yuanjing asked Yu Niang for help, and carefully poured all the brown syrup into the large funnel that had been prepared.
Under the funnel, there is a broken wooden barrel filled with water.
"Come on, girl."
"Keep an eye on your brother and watch him do some awesome tricks for you."
Li Yuanjing patted Yu Niang's small waist and motioned to Yu Niang to keep an eye on the stability of the device, while he hurried out.
soon.
Li Yuanjing brought a basin of muddy water over.
"Wow."
Before Poor Lady Jade had time to speak, Li Yuanjing had carefully poured the yellow muddy water in the tub into the funnel.
"ah."
"Brother, these are all expensive and good things bought with money. You, how could you waste it like this..."
When Mu Ran saw this scene, Yu Niang, who was originally relaxed and immersed in a little happiness, suddenly seemed to have returned to the dark days before.
Not only were her beautiful eyes sparkling, her delicate body could not stop trembling with throbbing, and she screamed urgently, clearly breaking her voice. This chapter has been completed!
