The competition was hot and noisy for more than an hour before the end. The three winners stood in the middle of the crowd in sweat, their faces full of pride and joy.

Li Jinmei walked over with a basket of cookies and gave two cookies to each of the men who participated in the competition but didn't win.

Xu Qingdu knows the three winners. One is Gao Laoer, the second one is Li Jing, and the third one is Li Zhuang. Li Zhuang is a bit miserable and his face is painted.

Xu Qing said, "three of you, go to my house. I have something else to talk about."

At home, Xu Qing asked Li Jinmei to treat Li Zhuang's wound.

"Sit down." Xu Qing said to Gao Laoer and Li Jingdao and handed them the ready contract. "This is the delivery contract. You can have a look first."

When they saw the contents of the contract, they both changed their faces uncontrollably. After reading it, they fell into deep meditation.

Xu Qing poured them two cups of tea and asked, "do you want me to explain it in detail?"

Gao Laoer took the tea: "tell me about it. I want to hear if it's the meaning I understand."

Xu Qing said: "first, the delivery car is provided by you. I don't care whether it's donkey cart or ox cart, but you have to deliver the goods to zuixianlou before it opens. Zuixianlou opens at the first moment of Chenshi."

Gao Laoer nodded: "this is no problem, my family has donkeys."

Li Jingdao: "my family has ox cart."

Xu Qing then said: "second, all my cakes are packed in big food boxes. I will seal each food box with a seal. You should take the list of the day and sign it for manager Yun of zuixianlou. He will check it, sign it and bring it back to me. The delivery of the day is a perfect end. If the seal is damaged and the pastry inside is missing, broken or rotten, I will deduct your salary accordingly according to the situation. Do you have any objection? "

Gao Laoer asked, "I don't know what kind of cake you sent. Is it easy to break?"

Xu Qing nodded and brought out two cakes from the kitchen: "just these four kinds. You can try them. The food box is the one I hang on the shelf. You can have a look for yourself. Be careful. It won't break."

Looking at the delicate and beautiful cakes on the plate, Gao Laoer and Li Jingtan just couldn't believe that Xu Qing could make them.

They were not constrained. They all tasted it and looked at the food box. The food box was layered and divided into grids. Each layer had many small grids, so that the cakes would not be crowded together.

Four hundred cakes, a total of four large food boxes, not much.

After knowing what to give and the quantity, Gao Laoer and Li Jing nodded and agreed to the second rule very readily.

Xu Qing said: "third, once you encounter danger on the way of delivery, I will not investigate the loss of the goods, but I am not responsible for your injury or even death. You should bear all the responsibilities yourself."

This one seems inhuman, but it has high risk and high return. Xu Qing also said early in the morning that there is a reason for such a high salary.

Four dollars is more than one month's hard work in the town.

What's more, there are not so many mountain bandits in the world. Even if they do encounter them, they will be regarded as unlucky.

Li Jingxin wanted to be a little more flexible. He asked, "is there no investigation for the loss of goods? So it doesn't matter if we just dump the goods and run away to save our lives? "

"It doesn't matter." Xu Qing said in a positive tone, "I suggest you always be alert. Once there is danger, you can hide or run away. Of course, if you think you can fight well, don't give me advice. After all, from my point of view, I don't want to lose a sum of money. "

Smell speech, Gao Laoer repeatedly nods: "have you this kind of words I am at ease, that if I find two people to send with me again?"

"It's your business. No matter how many people you find, you decide for yourself. Anyway, my requirements are here. You just have to do it for me."

"I see." Gao Laoer nodded.

Xu Qing added: "don't rush to sign it first. Go back to discuss with your family, especially the third one. Make clear the interests. I don't think someone will come to me at any time. If you don't want to do it, it doesn't matter. I'll find someone else and come back tomorrow at noon to give me an answer. When that's all right, I'll sign this contract. "

Both Gao Laoer and Li Jing should say, "OK."

"Finally, we don't have to deliver goods every afternoon. In the morning, we definitely need them. In the afternoon, we depend on the situation. If necessary, we definitely want you to go. In addition, if you don't need to deliver the goods on any day, and don't deduct the salary, the salary will still be counted. "

"Oh, by the way, if you can guarantee that every piece of goods will be delivered safely, completely and on time in a month, I'll pay each of you an extra money every month."

In fact, it is equivalent to a full attendance award.

Gao Laoer and Li Jing stare big eyes: "really?"

Xu Qingxiao: "the premise is that you can do it. If one of the lists that shopkeeper Yun replied to me is not satisfied, then I can't give this money."

It's not cost-effective for Xu Qing to add up the freight of one or two silver a month.I believe that as long as she has a word, cloud shopkeeper can deliver goods back and forth to her free of charge.

But she doesn't trust the people in zuixianlou. If someone wants to count on her, how can she ensure that the goods delivered to shopkeeper Yun are safe and intact?

Gao Laoer and Li Jing both know the root and the bottom, especially Li Jing. With him, Xu Qing is much more relieved.

In winter, she wants to smash the cat with the little fat at home. Thinking of this, it's worth the money!

Gao Laoer and Li Jing each went back with a bag of small cakes. Li Zhuang, who was a little uneasy on the other side, was finally called to talk.

Xu Qing asked with a smile, "you should be very good at cutting firewood, right?"

Li Zhuang was embarrassed to scratch his head: "I chop all the firewood at home."

"That's very powerful. Remember that I'm good at firewood. I can't do anything damp, vermin or rotten. If you're not careful, I'll deduct money if you send the bad one."

Li Zhuang quickly waved: "no, no!"

Xu Qing said with a smile: "I also want branches, but try to send more firewood. It's not easy for you to cut trees alone. You can ask your family to help you, or you can find several people to help you do it together. Anyway, I'll pay you as much as you send."

"All right."

"There's more." Xu Qing then said, "if you can plant a tree nearby for every tree you cut down, I will pay you ten Wen more every month."

Li Zhuang's simple and honest face looked surprised and puzzled.

Xu Qing explained: "when you cut down a tree, you plant a tree at the same time. When the tree grows up, there will be another tree to cut down to make money? In my opinion, many tree seeds fall on the mountain every autumn, and many saplings are pulled out before they grow up. It should not be difficult for you to plant trees, right
