Chapter 133
"Since the net has been cast, there is no need to worry." Liu Yaoqing said, "The net we cast not only targets the Japanese, but also protects the common people."
This is a network spread out by the people and the yamen together, famous and dark, with no traces but also interconnected networks.
"Brother Qing is right." Brother Zhezi said, "We are now invincible."
There is a unified meal here at noon, and the dishes are all brought by myself.
Song Shuixiang's bowl was broken several times, but it was already the best in his house. There was also a wooden plate made by himself, the inside was polished very smooth, and it was heavy in his hand.
After moving stones all morning, Song Shuixiang was already exhausted and out of breath. He got up early in the morning and cooked polenta at home. He only drank some clear porridge and left the thick one for his old mother to work hard. Just for the full meal at noon.
"Brother Xiang, what kind of food do you want to eat?" Holding a big spoon, although the clothes on his body were patched, they were washed clean, and his body was also very clean, Tian Xiaozhen smiled.
Song Shuixiang, who lives in the same village as himself, handed over the bowl and said, "For a bowl of soup, I want the one with more meat. Three pancakes, roasted pork with mushrooms and shredded potatoes."
There are also scrambled eggs with cucumber and scrambled eggs with mushrooms, which are also meat dishes, but Song Shuixiang still thinks that the large pieces of meat are enjoyable to eat, and he can save it and take it home to give his wife a taste of meat.
"Here." Tian Xiaozhen scooped up two spoonfuls of vegetables, and handed three large pancakes to Song Shuixiang, "Brother Xiang, come over and get pancakes if you're not full, next one!"
Seeing Song Shuixiang holding three pancakes, the man at the back joked, "Brother Xiang can eat it. Is the real brother partial to Brother Xiang? I see that the dishes I ordered just now are all outstanding."
"I'm also going to be the best at getting you vegetables." Brother Zhen said sharply, "The rules are set by Brother Xuan. You can only order food once, but pancakes and steamed buns are full. I'm not talking about you, if I ask the stewards I see, maybe your bonuses will be deducted."
"Hey, Brother Xuan, you have a good relationship with Brother Xuan, do you know that the bonus is real?" A man also ordered roasted potatoes, but he ordered three big steamed buns.
Brother Zhen glanced at the man, and said: "You have to finish eating all the steamed buns. You can save the vegetables and take them home, but steamed buns and pancakes are not allowed. This is the rule set by Brother Xuan. You should pay for the bonus. I have heard from the stewards that this matter was brought up by Brother Qing, and whether or not it will be released depends on our performance."
"Then it's possible." The man was not stupid, and immediately walked away with the dishes, he had to think about how to perform well in front of the manager and strive to get the bonus.
After finishing the meal, no one came to eat, so brother Zhen picked up the big pots, spoons and so on.
The people in their canteen eat with Brother Xuan, and they also eat rice.But the men can eat three big steamed buns for a meal, and the real brother only eats one for a meal. He put away his own food and put it in two bowls, and brought it back when he went home in the afternoon.
"Brother Xuan, is the reward true?" Brother Zhen was the first to work with Brother Xuan. His family was poor, with many brothers, and his parents were worried every day. People agreed to him to work.
But at home, he was about to starve to death, and there were still so many brothers waiting to eat. Brother Zhen thought that since he had a cheap life, he might as well go out to gain a better future.
Brother Xuan saw that he was courageous, clever, and down-to-earth, so he ordered him to do everything. The two people who came and went seemed to have a better relationship than the others.
At this moment, the real brother dared to ask, but the other brothers who also worked did not dare. At this time, they all gnawed on the steamed buns and listened.
"The stewards have been in meetings recently, and the matter has not yet been settled. Brother Qing said that it mainly depends on everyone's performance." Brother Xuan said calmly, "You are all under my command, so I will naturally fight for you. But don't let me down. The work in our dining hall is the most delicate, and we can't make any mistakes. Those who haven't bathed in the past few days will go back to boil hot water to take a bath. As long as you behave well, if you can stay in the future, you will not only take care of the meals There are wages and other benefits..."
"We know that."
After dinner, everyone cleaned up together, and then went down to help out under the leadership of Brother Xuan.
In the afternoon, the big guys returned to Brother Xuan's side, stood in two rows, and Brother Xuan called their names, and the day's work was considered over.
Everyone took their own dishes and went home with acquaintances.
Brother Zhen ate a few pieces of potatoes at noon, and there was still more than half a bowl of roasted pork with potatoes in the bowl. He was looking for a pot of stewed vegetables when he went back at night, so that the whole family could taste the meat.
"Brother Zhen." After walking a few steps, Song Shuixiang chased him out, "Let's go together."
It's been like this for the past few days. In fact, there is only one way back to the village, and most people in a village are together. However, Song Shuixiang and Brother Zhen's family are poor, and the two of them occasionally talked a few words and gradually became familiar with each other, and then they got closer.
"Brother Xiang, did you see Brother Qing today?" Brother Zhen asked.
"I didn't see it. I heard that Brother Qing is not feeling well, so he didn't leave the house today." Brother Xiang said honestly.
"Hey." Brother Zhen sighed and stopped talking.
At the beginning of work, everyone was focused on Guan Fan and the cup of immortal brew. They thought that the steward was so capable that he could buy so much immortal brew from Shanggu Village.
But the foreman knew it all in one day, where it was bought, the chief manager was Brother Qing, Liu Yaoqing from Shanggu Village, Shenxian Brew was only his family's stuff, and there was no need to buy it at all.
When the workers went home and said it, the news spread, and those who didn't apply for the job regretted it.
What kind of barren land, with messy legends, can it compare to living gods?Brother Qing actually came, which relieved many people's doubts about this place, but the first batch of recruitment has ended, and there are no more recruits.
Nowadays, every time the workers go home, many people come to ask, when will Brother Qing recruit a second job.
There was a man guarding at the entrance of the village. When he saw Song Shuixiang coming back, he immediately walked over with a smile on his face and said, "Brother Xiang, Brother Qing wants to recruit workers?"
"No." Brother Xiang shook his head.
The man was a little disappointed, but quickly laughed again, talking with Brother Xiang, asking about things over there.
Earlier when Liu Yaoqing brought a carriage into that area, the man still laughed at him and called him Brother Qing, but this time he really slapped him in the face, he really is the genuine Brother Qing, and he really regretted it. , I can't wait to go in and work immediately.
"Hmph, shameless." Brother Zhen said 'pooh', and turned to go home.
He just doesn't like this kind of person who can only take advantage of loopholes. Brother Xuan said that this kind of person is absolutely not recruited.
"Mom, I'm back." Brother Zhen yelled when he entered the door, and several brothers ran out of the room immediately. The oldest ones were seventeen or eighteen, but they were thin and weak, and they still haven't found their husband's family.
Finally, a thin woman came out and said happily: "Brother Zhen is back, let's go into the house and have a rest. The water, rice and vegetables are all ready, just wait for the pot."
"I'm not tired." Brother Zhen followed the woman into the kitchen, and said, "Today, there is roasted pork with potatoes. The big pieces of meat can't be swallowed in one mouthful. There are also potato shreds, put the ingredients brought by Brother Xuan, It tastes delicious when you eat it. Mother, you are almost cooking, let's eat together."
"Brother Zhen, what did everyone do today, tell us about it?" the younger brother asked while hugging Brother Zhen's leg.
"Today, I have a lot of work." Brother Zhen led the brothers to the yard and began to talk, "I went in the morning, Brother Xuan will take roll calls, and those who go late will be fined. They also cut meat, Cut the big piece of meat into big pieces, peel the potatoes, and don’t even eat the skin. I also help Brother Xuan knead the dough. The dough is only this big, but when it is steamed, it is so big, it’s soft and delicious soft."
Although I said it not once, everyone still listened with gusto.
"When will Brother Qing recruit for the second time?"
"Wait!"
Liu Yaoqing did not leave the house today, he drank a lot of water last night, his legs and feet were swollen like a bear when he woke up in the morning, he couldn't stand up at all, he could only lie on his side.
"Brother Zhezi, I have to go out for activities tomorrow." Liu Yaoqing said, "If I don't give birth by then, I will be in trouble."
"Don't say that." Brother Zhezi was a little nervous, "It will be fine."
Back in the afternoon Liu Yaoqing didn't drink much water, but ate a lot of food.
In the evening, the stewards were all talking back and forth, Liu Yaoqing was holding the popcorn and pinching it again and again, pinching a little bit into brother Zhezi's mouth, telling him to eat.
"Brother Qing, people have been asking every day whether they are recruiting workers or not. I guess someone will come in a few days. Our stall is so big, if outsiders come, we can't manage it, for fear of accidents." Brother Xuan said.
Su Qi also said, "The people under my command are also like this."
"The house will be ready for occupancy in a day or two. What should I do next?"
After all the stewards finished talking, Liu Yaoqing thought about it before saying, "After the house is finished, move in first, then cook some delicious food and fry some popcorn, this matter will be left to Brother Xuan and Brother Yu Son. Brother Shuihe, let me know when the canteen is designed. Next, we will work together to surround the wall, and each of you stewards will be responsible for a section of the wall, and we will proceed at the same time."
With a place to live, food is also solved, and there are security issues.
It is also impossible to let others come and go freely, which is prone to accidents.
After everyone discussed, the stewards left one by one, Liu Yaoqing rubbed her forehead and lay down slowly.
"Tired?" Brother Zhezi cleared away the tables and benches, leaned over and asked in a low voice.
"En." Liu Yaoqing replied in a deep voice, then fell asleep.
It's better to get busy with things, or seeing her belly getting bigger and bigger every day, like blowing air, and her body is also uncomfortable, Liu Yaoqing feels that she will definitely be in a bad mood.
In this way, he had to get up early in the morning, and the stewards outside even got up before dawn, and they all did things lightly.
Brother Zhezi went around outside, and when he saw a place that needed help, he would give some temporary instructions, but he spoke and acted the same as Liu Yaoqing.
Everyone eats breakfast together, just like the canteen on the mountain.
But this time everyone's identities are different, and they are talking about their subordinates while eating.
Even the most honest and quiet man in the past was now eloquent, "If you want me to say, it's Brother Qing's idea."
