Chapter 19 Labor Corps
On the table, a large pot of Gastrodia elata stewed with native chicken was placed in the center. This was the main dish today and had to be placed in the center.
Around, there are some of Second Aunt’s signature dishes and a few plates of refreshing cold dishes, which go perfectly with the local chicken!
Gu Guoqing picked up the chicken legs and gave one to Gu Chang and one to Xiao Shanzi. Before Gu Chang could refuse, Gu Guoqing had already spoken.
"Xiao Chang, eat it while it's hot! Look at Xiao Shanzi, he's almost eaten half of it."
Xiao Shanzi at the side was holding a chicken leg and gnawing on it silently. At this time, he had already ignored everything else outside the window and was only focused on gnawing on the big chicken leg!
Gu Chang smiled, feeling a little touched. He picked up the chicken leg and took a bite. In an instant, the rich aroma filled his entire mouth.
After a long period of stewing, the aroma of Gastrodia elata and the native chicken are perfectly blended. The chicken has been stewed to be very soft. After one bite, Gu Changkuai swallowed his tongue!
"This smells so good!" Gu Chang praised loudly!
Gu Guoqing chuckled, poured a few more pieces of chicken into the bowl on the pot, and said, "Eat quickly."
Gu Chang and Xiao Shanzi, who had been trekking for a whole day, were already starving. Now they started to eat with all their might and the food was so delicious!
Xiao Shanzi secretly gave two pieces of chicken to Fugui, who was whimpering under his feet. He said that this child was righteous. As a stutterer himself, he would never forget Fugui!
Faced with the delicious food, everyone lost the desire to talk for a moment and were all immersed in the food.
……
"Ding! New mission released!"
In Gu Chang's mind, the system suddenly sounded.
"New mission: Resource Paradise 1."
"Host triggers the Resource Paradise chain mission: Sell Gastrodia elata to benefit the villagers."
"Build a sales system for Gastrodia elata within two months."
"Rewards will be given according to the degree of mission completion. If the mission fails, the host will be punished by not being able to take a bath for half a year!"
Gu Chang was speechless. This damn system has given him another task!
It's amazing that you can complete the task by eating chicken stewed with Gastrodia elata!
……
After a long time, Gu Guoqing, who was full, put down his chopsticks, looked at Gu Chang and asked, "Xiao Chang, the fruits will be ripe in the next two days. What are your plans?"
At this time of year in previous years, Gu Jianguo had already contacted people and was ready to pick the fruits and sell them.
Gu Chang put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "Second Uncle, I was just about to tell you about this."
"Oh? What are your plans?" Gu Guoqing asked with curiosity.
"I plan to form a labor team with a fixed number of 20 to 30 people, who will be mainly responsible for picking and maintaining the fruit trees, some daily work in the pig farm, and some other transportation work in the future."
Let’s put the matter of Gastrodia elata aside for now, the fruit task has not been completed yet!
Gu Chang's words surprised Gu Guoqing. A labor team? A fixed labor team of 20 to 30 people. That's a lot of people!
"The work of picking fruit from the trees only takes half a month at most. Your pig farm is not very large, so you probably don't need that many people. Isn't it a bit of a waste of talent to form this labor team?"
Gu Chang smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, Uncle, the labor team will be busy until at least the New Year!"
"Until the New Year? That would mean I'll be busy for half a year?" Gu Guoqing was shocked. What on earth was Xiao Chang planning?
"What about the treatment? Will it still be based on the standards of previous years?"
After hearing what his second uncle said, Gu Chang shook his head. Gu Chang's father, Gu Jianguo, was a good old man. He treated everyone almost the same. Many people came to work, but they just didn't put in any effort and tried to take advantage of the situation. They had no enthusiasm at all!
"As for the remuneration, the basic salary is 300 yuan per month, and the more you work, the more you get paid. The salary is calculated based on how much work you do."
"Basic salary of 300 yuan?" Gu Guoqing was shocked again.
If it were in other places, many people might not even look down on 300 yuan, as a hotpot meal would cost several hundred yuan; but in Shangouzi Village, a basic salary of 300 yuan can be obtained even if one does not work. For the villagers, this is like a pie in the sky!
"Second Uncle, when selecting people, be sure to pick those who are careful and quick at work. Don't worry about the salary. As long as they are willing to work hard, we will never treat them unfairly. But let me be frank with you. Don't let those who take advantage of others or those who are cunning and treacherous be allowed to play tricks!"
Gu Guoqing couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up and said, "Xiao Chang, don't worry, your uncle will definitely keep a close eye on you! I'll go contact someone right away."
For many years, Gu Guoqing has been responsible for organizing people and assisting Gu Jianguo in picking fruit from the trees. This year, many people in the village are waiting.
Now that Gu Chang has made the decision and confirmed the labor team, he has to quickly tell his old brothers the good news.
Looking at Gu Guoqing who left in a hurry, Gu Chang smiled slightly and ignored him. He was relieved about his second uncle. In fact, Gu Chang had already made plans. The captain of this labor team must be Gu Guoqing!
