Chapter 312 Jealousy
Gu Jinli saw them trembling while talking, and said funnyly: "Grandpa Laoguo, it's not your first time to receive wages. Are you so nervous?"
He Laoguo smiled sheepishly and said: "This is different. Last time we only received half a month's wages, but this time we received a full month's wages. And we are digging in the dirt. How have we ever received full-term wages before?" No matter how many times you receive wages, you will still be nervous.
Those who can receive a full month's wages are all workers in the shop. In their eyes, such people are promising people, and the only person in their He family who can receive a full month's wages is the second son of the village chief's family. , none of them have received it.
Now that they can get it, He Laoguo and the others feel that they are more promising and are extremely excited.
Gu Jinli knew that they were eager to receive the money, so he said to them without any further nonsense: "Let's wait in line for change."
Queue up to get paid! He Laoguo shouted, and the workers in the workshop immediately divided into two teams. One team was the bean grinders, queuing up in the yard, and the other team was the spice grinders, queuing up in the main room.
Gu Jinan took the account book and settled the accounts for the bean grinders. After calculating the accounts, Gu Dashan distributed the money to them. After receiving the money, he had to put his fingerprint on the account book to make sure that he had received the wages.
Gu Jinli took the account book for grinding spices and led Mrs. Cui into the main room.
Cui has never been very courageous, and Gu Jinli wants her to be more courageous. Now, no matter what she does, she will bring Cui with her.
After Gu Jinli sat down, he opened the account book and looked at the calculated accounts above, and shouted: "Grandma Lao Yang, you are grinding fennel. This month, you have grinded a total of 150 kilograms, and each kilogram is worth twenty-five cents." , a total of three taels, seven hundred and fifty yuan. You can do the math, and if you are right, you can get the money by pressing your fingerprint on the book."
Grandma Lao Yang is He Shengzis grandmother. People in the village call her Mrs. Yang. ''
When Mrs. Yang heard that she could earn more than three taels a month, she was so happy that she trembled all over. It took her a while to come back to her senses and said with a smile: "That's right, that's the amount. My Shengzi has memorized it for us." Still waiting."
As he spoke, he dipped his thumb into the ink pad and pressed his fingerprint on the booklet.
Mrs. Cui counted out three taels, seven hundred and fifty cents, and handed it to Mrs. Yang: "You should keep the three taels, seven hundred cents."
Two quarters of an hour later, Gu Jinli paid everyone the completion money and said to them: "Tomorrow is a day off, everyone has a good rest."
She knew that He Dazhuang's daughter-in-law and the others did not want to have a holiday, but only wanted to work and make money, so she said: "Everyone has been working hard for a month, and there must be a lot of work at home. Let's take advantage of the day off to do the work that we have accumulated at home. Come to work with peace of mind the day after tomorrow."
After what she said, everyone finally agreed to take a day off.
After a while, after getting the money, the guys left the workshop holding the money bag tightly.
As soon as she left the workshop, the men of the family came to pick her up. They all know that today is the day when the workshop pays wages, and they are afraid that something will happen, so they come here to pick people up.
Mo Kuizi saw Mo Qinzi and his daughter and hurriedly came over and said, "Mom, Sister Qin, have you got your wages?"
Mo Qinzi smiled and nodded: "I got it. Dad, let's go home first." This is not the place to talk.
Hey, lets go home first. Brother Ming is still waiting at home. Mo Kuizi protected Mo Qinzi and his daughter, and the three of them hurried home.
The house Mo Kuizis family rented was in the back village. It had two earthen huts and a set-up kitchen. It was quite close to the end of the village. The three of them returned home quickly.
Mo Xiangming had been waiting for them. When he saw them coming back, he immediately ran up and asked, "Mom, eldest sister, how much wages did you receive this month? Is it really twelve taels?"
Mo Qinzi keeps accounts every day when she comes home. She is illiterate, so she uses a native method to carve horizontal lines on the pillars of her house. She will carve a few horizontal lines according to how many kilograms of spices she grinds today. Therefore, the family knows how much spices they have ground this month, and they can roughly calculate how much wages they can get.
Mo Qinzi nodded towards him and said with a smile: "Well, it's exactly twelve taels, which is a lot of money."
Twelve taels!
Behind the house, the two brothers Mo Xiangnan and Mo Xiangxi were so shocked that they almost screamed. They were really rich. They could get twelve taels of silver a month.
The two of them couldn't hold it any longer, so they sneaked home quietly and told Mr. Mo about the matter.
After Mr. Mo fainted twice, his health was much worse than before, but he was still dishonest. He kept staring at Mo Kuizi's house, waiting for the day when Gu's workshop would pay wages.
