Chapter 1002



1002 The dishes don’t even smell good anymore

Immediately, someone went up the stage. It was a woman in her twenties. She was a family member of a soldier and did not know how to do needlework. She did not follow sun Yumei and was here to recruit bailiffs.

“Third miss Gu, please!”

Gu Xin’s moves were sharp and didn’t hurt anyone. She only forced them into the ring.

Twenty moves and he had taken him down.

Looking at the young woman who was beaten off the ring, Gu Xin laughed, ” “My family still needs to recruit other people. You can try.”

Gu Xin pointed to the side, where uncle Gu, Cai Xiaolian, and Zhang Shi were.

The young woman got up and walked over. In the end, she was accepted by uncle Gu. When the time came, she would be paid fifty Wen a day for farming, starting from the land reclamation.

Gu Xin continued to exchange blows.

In two hours, there were a total of 50 candidates, and only 11 of them passed.

She still wanted to try, but Gu shouxin called her down and Gu en went on stage.

Gu en also had two hours, and Gu Si was the last.

In the end, Gu shouxin recruited thirty-five bailiffs, and Grandpa Gu helped him register.

The rest of the people who were not selected either followed their uncle to farm, were selected by Gu Nian to work in the laboratory, or were chosen by Cai Xiaolian to train the people in the restaurant.

At first, Gu shouxin wanted to choose a few literate people to do some writing work in the Yamen, but the day before, he received a letter from the Emperor that in the first month of the lunar year, all the people from the other Yamen sent by the Imperial court would come, so he had to wait.

After the selection of bailiffs was done, Gu shouxin handed over the daily tasks listed previously to Zhang Cheng and Zhao Hu. They just had to follow these daily.

When they finished eating that night, uncle Gu was quite happy. There were so many people all of a sudden. How many emperors would he have to drive?

Gu Xin suddenly thought of something, ” father, why don’t we talk to Grandpa Peng? let’s get the soldiers to go to the toilet together. We’ll build this toilet for them. I guarantee it’ll be clean. Will he agree to it?”

“Third sister, when you talk about this during dinner, I feel that the food doesn’t smell good anymore.” Gu en said.

Uncle Gu knocked on Gu en’s head and said,”which of the vegetables you eat isn’t watered with Daddi?” And you’re even disdaining it?”

However, Gu Nian immediately understood Gu Xin’s thoughts. “Xinxin, are you saying that if we build all the latrines, there will be enough manure?”

Gu Xin nodded, ” When we were in the capital, there were people collecting night incense every day. I asked the uncle who collected the night incense, and he took it back. He has dozens of acres of land! He could even sell it to the people in the manor. The Peng family has an Army of 100000. If we build their latrines and direct them to the fields from this latrine pit when we fertilize them, won’t the crops grow better? In the past, most of our latrines were the feces of animals, but I don’t think the people here are afraid of raising pigs and chickens. Uncle has opened up so much land, and when there are seeds, the fertilizer is not enough, and the crops will not grow so well!”

Cai Xiaolian put down her chopsticks and said,”this is feasible.” Father, please discuss this with old general Peng. He should be willing. We can also build a few public outhouses in the corners of the city. This way, the city will be tidier. The day before yesterday, I went home late and saw someone under a tree. I don’t feel anything now that the weather is cold, but when the weather is hot, I’m afraid that the whole city will smell this stench.”

Grandma Gu also put down her chopsticks. I went to old Xiao’s place and met a few women who have lived here for a few years. I also talked about this. Some people are too lazy to pour night incense, so they go out at night and settle it in a place far away from home. The stinky one is someone else’s house. They didn’t know that someone else had come to their house to solve it. ”
