Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 122 Lu Xiaoyang enters the assessment period

Hearing what he said, He Jiuniang turned to look at Sun, who rolled her eyes and said nothing.

It's all like this, what else can she say?
But looking at Lu Xiaoyang's wretched appearance, he still couldn't swallow the bad breath, so he could only say viciously: "If you want to do it, do it well. If you dare to cheat, I will beat you to death!"

Lu Xiaoyang nodded, unable to say any words of rejection.

But Lu Xiaoyang didn't just let him go to work. He Jiuniang helped Lianhua count the money she earned this morning again, and then she wanted to test Lu Xiaoyang's ability to settle accounts.

Lu Xiaoyang knew that he needed to perform well now. Even though he was lame in one leg, he still kept his back straight.

He Jiuniang first asked a few simple oral arithmetic questions. Later, seeing that Lu Xiaoyang could answer them almost instantly, she made the questions more difficult.

To calculate accounts, you only need to master primary school mathematics. He Jiuniang said several relatively large numbers in succession, and then calculated the discount, or calculated the total.

In order to increase the difficulty, He Jiuniang deliberately exaggerated the numbers, but Lu Xiaoyang could calculate them quickly.

He Jiuniang's eyes lit up, this guy is really good!
Lianhua looked on with envy. If he could count as fast, he wouldn't have to be so panicked this morning.

"Brother Xiaoyang, how did you do it? Can you teach me?"

Lianhua's face is full of curiosity. She really wants to become excellent so that she can be valuable.

A little girl as beautiful as Lotus suddenly looked at him with bright eyes. Lu Xiaoyang felt a little shy for no reason. He scratched his head in embarrassment: "I...I don't know why, I just know..."

He had been idle since he was a child. When he was in his hometown, he didn't do anything. He just hung out with his friends and went to the casino to liven up his life when he had money.

There were times in the casino when the accounts were settled carelessly, and he just wanted to deceive them, half-grown children, but he was able to explain it away with confidence.

But they didn't have much money on them at that time. Even if they broke it all down, it was only a few cents, and the people in the casino didn't bother to argue with them.

Seeing him like this, Lianhua felt a little disappointed. She still wanted to learn from him, but it was impossible to do so.

Everything was sold back, and there was nothing to do with Lu Xiaoyang for the time being. He Jiuniang asked him to go to the kitchen to find Yu to get some steamed buns and go back first, but left Lian Hua alone.

"Aunt Jiuniang, today...I almost did something wrong today..."

Lianhua thought He Jiuniang left her because she wanted to settle accounts, so she hurriedly lowered her head and admitted her mistake.

She made a lot of money this morning, and she didn't know what to do if something went wrong.

He Jiuniang patted her head and smiled: "Today's matter is indeed serious, but it is not your fault. I know you have been studying very hard. Take your time, practice makes perfect, and soon you will be as good as Lu Xiaoyang . Starting from tonight, I will teach you a few arithmetic problems every night, and then give you homework. If you practice like this for two or three months, it will not be a problem. This is not why I kept you. I have other things to tell you."

Hearing what she said, Lianhua straightened her back immediately, as if what He Jiuniang told her to do would be something sacred.He Jiuniang:......

"Don't be so nervous, it's not a big deal." He Jiuniang found it a little funny. This child is so simple. "You must also know what Lu Xiaoyang's temper was before. Even though he settles accounts very quickly, we still can't trust him too much, so Then he goes to sell clothes, you are responsible for collecting the money, and he is responsible for settling the accounts. Remember, the money must not pass through Lu Xiaoyang's hands."

Although Lu Xiaoyang performed well today, he must be on guard against others. Who knows if he has really changed for the better, or if he is just trying to confuse everyone?
"Yeah, don't worry, aunt, I will definitely pay attention!"

This matter was nothing to Lianhua, just like she didn't let Lu Xiaoyang touch the money today, she was also worried that Lu Xiaoyang would grab the money and run away.

The next day, all the inventory at home was temporarily sold out. Lianhua followed Yu and others to the workshop to make clothes early in the morning. The interview was left to Sun, He Jiuniang and two professional embroiderers.

There were dozens of small benches borrowed from the neighbors next door in the yard. There was a large group of people in and around the yard.

He Jiuniang took the list she took down yesterday and started calling people, thirty for each interview.

Making clothes takes a long time, and they can't really make a set of clothes, so the rule is half an hour.

During this period, He Jiuniang and the other two will look around at any time. If they encounter someone who is very agile and careful in their work, they can accept it in advance, and then ask her to take the fabric directly to the workshop and finish the rest.

If there is someone who is particularly clumsy or slow, you can just let her go and check the remaining fabric to see if there is any intentional waste. If there is any, let her pay for it. If not, take it to the workshop and give it to others. .

There were always three rounds of interviews, which ended in less than two hours. The situation was much better than He Jiuniang expected.

Women in this era were more or less good at needlework. There were 95 people who came for the interview, and [-] people were left in the end. None of the seven people who left had cut the fabric, but they were dismissed because they were too slow. Or those who have poor psychological quality and give up voluntarily.

With such busy work, the whole morning was over.

He Jiuniang and Sun went to the workshop, looked at the people who were doing a good job, and clapped their hands: "Everyone, stop and listen to what I have to say."

We just selected people, and we haven’t talked about the benefits yet.

Everyone put down their scissors or needlework and listened carefully to He Jiuniang's speech: "We have recruited everyone to work today, and our Lu family's garment workshop has been established. Let me tell you the specific requirements first."

"First of all, we are a group, and we should put the interests of the group first at all times. Fighting is not allowed in the workshop. Once it happens, we will be expelled directly; also, these orders in our workshop are all Cooperate with the nobles in the town and county. No matter what kind of clothes you make or how they are made, you are not allowed to mention it to outsiders, including your family members. If the news leaks out, not only will you be fired, but you will also have to compensate us for breach of contract. Gold; in addition..."

She said a lot of terms that were unbelievable to the villagers. Isn't it just to make clothes?Why can't you talk nonsense?

There are also punishments for the disposal of leftover materials, and the punishment of female workers for stealing things if their hands and feet are not clean. The female workers were confused when they heard about it, so why were they all fined?
If you haven’t started making money yet, are you going to start losing money?

Just when everyone was a little unhappy and wanted to refute, He Jiuniang started talking about the various benefits written yesterday.
