Settled in Qixia Town, started with Qingwen

Chapter 61
For the next two days, Li Xin focused all his energy on the big cemetery.

Leaving early and returning late, I don't care about other things.

Even the exercise of arm strength was suspended.

It's a joke, if he gets the "Nine Yin Manual", if he is lucky and has internal strength in it, he will take off directly, so why don't he care about the lack of exercise for a period of time?

The two guys got their wages settled every day, and finally they were able to eat enough, gradually gained strength, and worked more quickly.

But moving so fast doesn't have much effect on the overall progress.

Compared to the size of the ancient tomb, the combined advance speed of the three days only accounted for a part of the whole.

However, Li Xin was in a peaceful state of mind.

Take your time, as long as there are no accidents, or he is too unlucky, it will be a matter of time before he gets his hands on the "Nine Yin Manual".

In fact, when the two men were digging a hole, he could exercise his arm strength by the side, and he could do both.

But he always guards against various situations, and only by keeping his energy at full strength can he cope better.

He hired the coachman for twenty yuan a day, which was a very high price, mainly because the boards were stored in the car, and he pulled them back every night.

There is always some storage fee, no.

When the time came to the third night, it was still a smooth day, and there was still no harvest.

Li Xin walked back to the East Street alone, and when he came to the restaurant, he saw a person falling asleep with his back against the outer wall.

It's not Xiaomi. Although he often appears nearby, his location is often not fixed. After all, he is a member of the beggar gang, not a simple beggar.

The person in front of him was another familiar face, Chai Jiu.

The sound of Li Xin's footsteps woke him up, he opened his eyes and looked over, his eyes lit up immediately, he put on a smile and stood up.

He took two steps closer to Li Xin, but stopped at a suitable distance, nodded and bowed his head, and said, "Seeing that you are so handsome and rich, you must be the rumored Mr. Li, right? My youngest name is Chai Jiu, and I want to ask for a place under your command." Work."

Obviously, Chai Jiu didn't know Li Xin's appearance, but only guessed it from the high-end clothes.

"You know me?"

Li Xin raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I heard about it from a fellow villager. He said that you are a great benevolent person. Not only are you willing to pay for those unnamed graves, but you also treat those of us who have fled from refugees equally. You will be given ten cents for those who are big Xia, and those who are big gold. Ten words!"

Chai Jiu always bent over and said with a flattering smile.

"I see."

Li Xin nodded slightly, probably understanding what was going on.

He looked at Chai Jiu up and down, his expression was much better than when he first saw him, and it was different after he was full.

"Since you heard about me from someone else, didn't you hear the other one? I only accept two people, and it's full now."

Li Xin said lightly.

"I heard about it, but I want to try it! I, I only need half of their wages!"

At first, in order not to starve to death and to fill his stomach, Chai Jiu went to the end, as long as there was food and no wages, he would do it.

Now that the embarrassment of being hungry is gone, I want to take a step forward.

Working at Mipu is tiring and hard. Others can at least get paid every month, and one day is happy.

Only he has no money to take, staring blankly.

The most hateful thing is that he doesn't even ask for wages, and every time he wants to eat an extra bowl of rice, he will be reprimanded and humiliated by that damned young master of the Jiang family.

He's had enough.

Therefore, as long as there is even a slight chance to escape from there and work in a better place, he will desperately seize it.

"Half? That's five cents a day. To be honest, it's also a high price."

Li Xin smiled.

Hearing this, Chai Jiu's complexion changed, and he said without thinking, "I can go lower! Mr. Li, please accept me!"

Make a quick decision and be able to bend and stretch.

Sure enough, it is the character of Chai Jiu in the original play, which has not changed.

Li Xin nodded secretly.

Chai Jiu has a bottom line in his heart, he holds grudges and gratitude, and the most important thing is that he is a little clever, and he is a useful person.

You can accept him.

Li Xin then said, "I told you, only two people are enough to work in the big cemetery, and no third person will be accepted."

"Master Li, I can..."

Chai Jiu was in a hurry, and immediately wanted to continue to cut wages.

"Listen to me."

As soon as Li Xin raised his hand, the other party shut up obediently, and then continued: "There are enough people in the cemetery, but I only have one clerk in this restaurant. If you are willing to do it..."

"Yes! I do!"

Chai Jiu was overjoyed and bowed his head in thanks again and again without asking specific conditions.

What if Li Xin doesn't pay him?

In fact, this is also the embodiment of his cleverness.

Even if there is such a possibility that the bamboo basket fetches water in vain, he will not ask clearly, so as not to make the new owner unhappy.

The most important thing is that Li Xin can pay others ten yuan a day, and it is still a temporary worker.

When it was the turn of the resident clerk of the restaurant, he would never give him a penny.

"My restaurant will no longer operate in the future, and I will do other business, and it has not opened for the time being, so your work is not fixed, but it will not be as tiring as you did before. Two dollars a month, including food and housing!"

Li Xin still gave the same treatment as Lei Li.

The so-called not suffering from scarcity but suffering from unevenness, on the surface, it is better to have a bowl of water that is level.

After all, Lei Li is still disabled.

"Thank you, my master! Thank you, my master!"

When Chai Jiu heard that he could get two dollars a month, including food and housing, he was so happy that he almost fainted.

He couldn't believe that such a good condition would come to him.

Immediately, his feet softened, and he knelt down without standing still.

In fact, his knees are not that cheap, it's just that his emotions are too intense and his feet are weak.

However, he knelt down, and it was too late to stand up again.

Bang!Bang!Bang!
As soon as he gritted his teeth, he just took advantage of the situation and kowtowed.

Kneeling is an accident, and kowtow is an increase in investment.

"Okay, get up, my other buddy calls me the head of the house, so you can call me the same."

Li Xin pulled it up.

Then he walked to the restaurant and knocked on the door.

Before calling for someone, Lei Li opened the door.

Perhaps he had already noticed the movement outside.

"Chai Jiu, this is my first buddy, Lei Li. He has the same salary and treatment as you, but after all, you come first and come first. You have to listen to him for everything in the future, understand?"

Li Xin naturally valued Lei Li more.

There are a hundred Chai Jius, but not one Lei Li.

"understand!"

Chai Jiu nodded repeatedly.

"Well, let's get to know each other yourself, and I'll go first."

Li Xin also didn't tell Chai Jiuduo about the accommodation arrangement, so Lei Li would probably settle it.

After saying this, he walked towards the back door of the restaurant.

But suddenly, bang bang bang!Clap clap!
The door that had just closed was slapped.

"Brother Li, are you there? Xiao Lei, open the door!"

It was the voice of Bai Zhantang.

Li Xin turned around and opened the door himself.

Seeing Bai Zhantang holding the quilt, he came over.

Asked in surprise: "What's going on?"

"The shopkeeper kicked me out. I'll spend the night with you tonight."

Bai Zhantang said helplessly after entering.
