Chapter 460 Training
When Lu Chuan saw Xu Han had finished taking the things, he shouted to the courtyard, "Is there anyone here? Come out and get the things."
After hearing the voice, the people inside were a little stunned and asked, "It clearly sounds like the voice of the master, why does it sound like it came from the back door?"
Another person said, "I don't know. Let's go over and take a look first!" After saying that, he walked out first, and the others immediately followed him.
When everyone opened the back door and took a look, they were instantly shocked. Their mouths opened so wide that they wished they could fit an egg in them.
The older uncle said, "This, this, this is too much stuff!"
You have to know that in today's world, not many people can eat enough, let alone servants who have been sold as slaves! They have never had a full meal and are hungry every day.
Now when everyone sees these piles of things, anyone would be so surprised that they would be speechless.
Xu Han said, "Don't just stand there, move these things in first!"
The others reacted at this moment and rushed forward to move the things. More people is better. Now they don’t even need two people to do the work. With so many people working together, they lifted all the things in no time.
Liu Erzhu asked, "Madam, where should we move these things?"
Xu Han thought about it and realized that since the yard had not been cleaned up yet, it would be impossible to put it in the warehouse, so she said, "Let's put it in the main hall first!"
Upon hearing this, several people quickly walked towards the main hall, and Xu Han and Lu Chuan followed behind.
After entering, Xu Han clearly saw that the main hall had been cleaned. The dust that she had seen when she inspected the house had been wiped clean at some point.
The floor was also clean, obviously having just been wiped, and there were still some water stains that had not dried yet!
Xu Han didn't expect that this group of people were so discerning, and she couldn't help but have a better impression of them.
Not bad, not bad. They are all people with a lively mind. They secretly said in their hearts, “Hahahaha, that’s great. Finally, I don’t have to clean the house myself.”
After putting the things away, Xu Han and Lu Chuan sat at the top. Seeing this, the others immediately lined up in a row. Everyone knew what was going to happen.
After Lu Chuan and Xu Han sat down, the others immediately knelt down and said in unison, "Your servants pay their respects to the master and his wife."
Logically speaking, this is the formal visit to the host family, and the previous one cannot be considered a formal visit.
Xu Han said slowly, "Everyone, get up!"
Everyone thanked him together, "Thank you, ma'am."
Xu Han was still a little uncomfortable. After all, she was a social animal in her previous life and had no chance to see these things. But after all, she had been struggling in the society for many years. Even if she was not calm at the moment, she had to hold on.
When you give a lecture for the first time, you have to keep your composure. Otherwise, it will be hard to manage so many people and you won't be able to control them. Some people with bad intentions may even do things for the master or even fool the master.
After everyone stood up, Xu Han said, "I already have some idea of what you are probably, but I don't know your names yet. I don't want to change your names either. After all, you must have gotten used to them after so many years.
If we change the name now, it will be hard to adapt to it all at once, so we might as well stick with the previous name, so you can introduce each of us one by one!"
Xu Han had no habit of changing people's names, and she herself was also bad at naming, so she decided to skip this step.
As soon as Xu Han finished speaking, everyone in the audience couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Liu Erzhu, who was standing on the far left, was the first to explain, and the others followed suit and said their names.
From left to right are the brothers Liu Erzhu and Liu Sanzhu, the elderly couple Zhu Qiang, daughter-in-law Zhou, eldest son Zhu Chunfeng, eldest daughter-in-law Li, eldest grandson Zhu Dahu, and eldest granddaughter Zhu Erni.
The second son, Zhu Chunsheng, and the second daughter-in-law, Zhang, do not have any children yet.
The third son is Zhu Chuntian, the fourth daughter is Zhu Chunmei, and the fifth daughter is Zhu Chunchan.
In addition, there are Yue Niang, Han Qi, and two maids selected later, namely Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Ma.
The clever lady Qi Yu, the young man Zhang Yi, and the two servants Li Si and Wang Lin.
After getting to know each other, it was already late. Xu Han said, "Okay, now that we all know each other, I won't say much else. I just want to say that no matter what you think, put away your thoughts when you get to my house.
We only want servants who work hard and are obedient. If I find anyone with bad intentions or gossiping, I will never let him off easily.
Of course, I will never treat those who are diligent and hardworking unfairly. Without saying much else, at least I will ensure that you have enough food to eat and clothes to wear.
You also know that our family is just an ordinary farmer, but we don't want to treat you harshly. From today on, on this day of every month in the future, I will give each of you a monthly salary of 100 coins.
Children are not counted, and anyone who can work will have a share, but it will be reduced appropriately. Of course, it is 100 Wen now, and when the world gets better and the family has more money, I will increase your wages appropriately."
When the others heard this, their faces instantly broke into smiles, and they all knelt down immediately and said in unison, "Thank you, Madam."
I thought that if I followed this master, I would just have enough food to eat in the future, and as for wages, I couldn't even think about it.
I really didn't expect that there would be wages, and it was 100 wen. Although it was a little less compared to the rich families, there were many people here who had never received any wages.
Especially the Zhu family, the previous owner treated them harshly. Not only did they not have enough to eat, but they also had endless work to do every day, and they didn't have a penny.
Otherwise, the children in the family wouldn't have to wear clothes that didn't cover their bodies! Now that we have a new owner, life will finally be better.
Moreover, there are many people in my family. If you count all the family members together, except for two very young children, the rest should be able to get wages. Although the amount may be less, it should be at least around 800 coins a month.
Most of the others thought so too. After all, Xu Han had put forward requirements when selecting people. Naturally, the people in the courtyards and houses of those wealthy families would look down on those from the farmers' families, so they simply gave up when selecting people.
Those who could accept Xu Han's request naturally did not have a particularly good life in the past. When all these people heard this, they immediately became more respectful to Xu Han.
Xu Han continued, "Okay, everyone, hurry up and get up. We are a farming family, and we don't have such big rules at home. You don't have to kneel every now and then. Instead of doing these formalities, you might as well do your job properly!"
