Chapter 288 Hiring People to Work

There were six or seven people behind the man, all carrying baskets with poles, and there were unknown things in them.

After looking carefully, I found that there were wild vegetables they dug in the mountains, and grains they bought in the city.

These people living in this manor are not stable every day. They have no food, so they can only go out to find food by themselves.

It's no different from when they were living in shacks and wandering outside.

They are refugees from the south, and without ID cards, they cannot find work opportunities here.

What's more, in Suzaku City, refugees are not allowed to enter at all.

The leading man is named Zhan Hu, the village head of Zhanjia Village. The originally good village suddenly stopped growing crops. They tried many methods but failed.

Seeing the grass and vines growing in the field, they could no longer stand the toss, so they could only take the villagers to flee the famine.

When they fled here, there were not many people left in the village.

"Is it true that you just said that you want to hire us to work? But we don't have identity certificates?" Zhan Hu said awkwardly.

When they left the village, the government over there stopped them, saying that as long as the grass grows in the field, crops will grow, and they are not allowed to leave the south.

So their identity certificates were not given to them by the Yamen.

They can only wander around begging as refugees. Originally there were more than 200 people in the village. Later, some died and some left. Only these 100 people remained.

If they can have a stable place to live, they wish for it.

"It's easy to say. After you work here, I will get you a copy of the identity certificate here. Just discard your previous identity." Ji Yao said.

As long as they work hard here, she will not treat them badly.

If it weren't for the fact that they all have their own principles, she wouldn't help them, and just send them to the Li family.

Since the characters of these people are trustworthy, she will help them.

Zhan Hu led the people to kneel and kowtow, "Thank you, boss! We must work hard! We will never be lazy."

They have met a good person, and they will definitely repay their boss well.

In the past half a year, they fled famine all the way to come here, and only they know how many human relationships they have experienced.

Only by meeting a good boss can their lives be guaranteed.

"I believe in you. You will be the tenants of this manor in the future. I will give you other seeds to plant the land of this manor. As long as you do well, your benefits will be indispensable." Ji Yao asked them to get up.

There are a total of 100 people in Zhanjia Village, including men, women and children, and a bigger place is needed to arrange them.

There is a yard behind the manor, which should be enough to accommodate them.

Zhan Hu and the others stood up from the ground and wiped their faces fiercely, "Boss, I went to see the land these days here, and a lot of it is deserted. It should be the same as ours. They can only grow Grass, there is no way to grow crops."

He is also a little embarrassed, as long as the land is good, they are good at growing crops, and if there is a problem with the land, they can't help it.

"Don't worry about this. Put the potion I prepared in the water to irrigate the land, and it will grow food like normal land, and it will increase production."

Ji Yao found out that the vine roots had absorbed all the nutrients in the land where there was no way to grow food. She really didn't know what Luo Li wanted to do?
The seeds of the vines were scattered everywhere by him, absorbing the nutrients of the entire Beiyou country. Does he have any plans?
Now that no one has been found, she is still unable to draw a conclusion, and she will wait until she sees Luo Li.

"Boss, then we can rest assured, as long as the boss speaks, we will follow the boss." Zhanhu smiled naively.

"When someone brings food and vegetables, you start to clean up the land. Before that, I will have people demolish them all. You should live in the yard closest to the land."

She didn't plan to keep this Li Family Manor, it didn't fit her aesthetics at all.

"Ah? It's going to be demolished here? Such a good place?" Zhan Hu pointed at the luxurious courtyard in shock.

Everything in it is of great value, and it would be a pity to destroy it.

"If you like it, take all the ones you can use to the yard you live in! I will demolish the rest." Ji Yao said with a smile.

"Really? Then we'll take it easy and move away." Zhan Hu directly ordered people to start moving things.

The yards Ji Yao arranged for them were all five-entry two-story houses, enough to accommodate a hundred of them.

Seeing them busy moving things, Ji Yao took Qinglian to another place, and she planned to take a good look around.

The Li family's manor really lived up to its reputation, covering a very large area, with carved beams and painted pillars, landscapes, flowers and birds, and a clear lake in the middle that reflects the golden crow falling to the west, and sprinkles a piece of golden on the lake.

"Huh? What's in this lake?"

She found a green light flashing in the lake.

Ji Yao's five fingers became claws, and with a sudden suction, a jasper-colored pendant appeared in her hand.

"Miss, this pendant is very pretty." Qinglian looked at the pendant and was attracted by the pattern on it.

What is depicted on the pendant is exactly a green lotus, which complements her name perfectly.

Ji Yao wiped the pendant to remove all the dirt on it, and then poured out a blue lotus seed from it.

He handed the pendant to Qinglian without any hassle, "Just take this with you, it will keep you safe."

This pendant is a container that holds the 'Great Fortune Green Lotus Seed', and it is also a very precious divine jade, enough to protect her from harm.

Qinglian joyfully put the pendant on her neck, "Miss, what's the matter with this seed?"

"This is the seed of the good luck green lotus, look at it." Ji Yao smiled mysteriously, and threw the seed in his hand into the lake.

Ji Yao mobilized her thoughts to cover the entire lake, and saw lotus leaves emerging from the lake.

After another quarter of an hour, blue lotus buds emerged from the water, swaying gently in the lake with the majesty.

The green lotus buds on the lake have not yet opened, and they emit bursts of fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed.

Qinglian ran to the lake, looked at those Qinglians happily, "Miss, these are all Qinglians? They smell so good!"

"These are fortune green lotuses, which are also a kind of elixir. One petal is enough to save a life. You will be responsible for guarding these lotuses in the future." Ji Yao said with a smile.

Whether Qinglian or Honglian, these two girls have a soft spot for lotus.

She has already planted a lot of red lotuses in the General's Mansion, but like these, they haven't bloomed yet.

That fellow Red Lotus has been watching those red lotuses on the lake all day long. Anyone who dares to pick her red lotus will be destroyed immediately.

Qinglian also nodded happily, "Okay! I'll watch these."

She used to be jealous of the red lotus, the young lady planted a lot of red lotus for her alone, and now the young lady also planted a green lotus for her, so she no longer needs to be jealous of the red lotus.

"Okay! Then you stay here and watch, and I'll look around." Ji Yao smiled and shook her head and left.

This time Li Feng is really at a loss. Who would have thought that there is a seed of good luck green lotus hidden in the crystal clear lake all year round?

Ji Yao walked around until dark, and only then did she finish visiting the entire manor, and she had a general plan in mind.
