Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 218 Division of labor, entering Taoyuan
Li Muyang could understand the reserve of his brothers and sisters-in-law, but didn't take it to heart. He didn't have much time to think about it.

The following days were very busy.

The most important thing at the moment is to quickly communicate with the people sent by Wu Zhongshi on how to sell the peaches on Taoshan.

According to the agreement, someone else will come to pick the peaches the day after tomorrow. The deposit has been collected, so today and tomorrow we have to find a way to pick the peaches.

Li Muyang made a rough estimate.

If you want to pick more than 1 kilograms of peaches, and one person can pick 500 kilograms a day, you will need 20 people.

Because this was the first time he had so many people do it, he didn’t know how efficient it would be.

In order to avoid wasting time, I decided to budget as much as possible.

After all, you have to carry the peaches from the mountain to the door, or at least to the road where the car can go.

But if you want to find someone here, you need to make a time difference.

He had just passed the meeting in the morning and had not received the contract yet. If he went to find someone to pick peaches now, there might be some people with malicious intentions.

I thought to myself that I already had peaches, so how could I contract them as if I had nothing?
It would be quite troublesome if we went to the village committee to cause trouble.

Li Muyang waited until the afternoon, chasing after the village committee to get the contract, and then he felt relieved.

Now that I have a contract, I don’t care what others say.

It is impossible for people to satisfy everyone.

Especially in things like this, no matter how good you are at it, there will always be people who are envious, jealous, and hateful, and will stumble you behind your back.

After thinking about it, Li Muyang decided to start with people with better connections within the clan.

This is also the last line of insurance.

For people who are a little further away, who knows what they can do on the surface, but they won’t say anything behind their backs.

If you only find some people you know well and have relatively good relationships with, and give them money, I think they can understand.

This is also a screening. If these people are doing well with you now, you can let them work for a long time in the future. On the other hand, if someone is doing something behind your back now, then I'm sorry, they will not be able to work with you for a long time. It is quite difficult. Yu blocked his own road.

It’s actually hard to find a job these days.

Unlike future generations, as long as you are willing to endure hardship, you can make money even if you enter a factory or work on a construction site.

These days, even if you want to endure hardships, it is difficult to find a place. There are very few construction sites, and if you can barely find a job outside, you may have to rely on connections to do it.

Labor is extremely abundant at this time, so it seems very cheap and no one cares about you.

For people like Li Muyang to be able to gather people to work for him and provide them with a good job, it is already a great thing.

He can predict that when his job is officially started and someone has already received wages, more and more people will come to him to work and become popular, and they may even resort to various methods. What kind of means?

When it got dark, Li Muyang finished his meal, took a small book and wrote some people's names, and then went to each family to inquire whether they wanted to work here.

The money he gave was one yuan and a half a day for the time being, instead of two yuan directly.

People's desires will continue to increase. If he starts giving two yuan, if they are tired and don't work hard, they won't be able to provide incentives.

After stabilizing, and discovering that they are indeed doing a good job, we can raise their wages so that those who are not good can be eliminated along the way.

He also doesn’t know any clever management methods, which is to take advantage of human nature.People are inherently lazy.

As long as they can stop working, few people are really willing to do it.

So management, he thinks, isn’t it about curbing people’s inertia?

For people who work, at least for people in this era, as long as you give them the money, no one will say anything.

Most of the time, the reason why people are unhappy at work is because the work they put in does not match the rewards they receive. If you make more money and live more, you will definitely not be satisfied.

The process of finding people to work for Li Muyang was not particularly smooth. Basically, only one of two people would be willing to do the job.

This is a very complicated question.

It’s not that he thinks that others have no work to do at home, so if he gives them work, they will be very happy.

There are two reasons for this. On the one hand, everyone is from the same clan, and many of them are cousins. If they suddenly have to work for their brothers and get paid, these people feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

Hmm, I don’t think that’s the case.

Because the mature industrial employment system had not yet been widely promoted at this time, people still had certain misunderstandings about the employment relationship. They felt that getting paid to work for others was like a permanent employee, which was no different from the old society.

I feel uncomfortable in my heart. It would be even worse if outsiders are fine, but I am working for my own brother.

Also, how should I put it, people in the northwest generally do not pursue the pace of life as highly as people in the south, and this will remain the case even in later generations.

Many people's ultimate pursuit of life is to barely survive, or at most to be well-off. They will not think about making too much money and then realizing their personal value.

The personal value of Northwest people is not reflected in making money, but in having a happy family, being harmonious, and being able to live a stable life every day, which is good.

This cultural atmosphere has influenced later generations.

It's basically like this.

Sometimes when people from the south come to the northwest, they feel that the pace of life here is very slow. It seems that everyone has no desires and desires. Even if they are given very high money and asked to work elsewhere, they are too lazy to go. This is also the reason.

Similarly, when people from other places open companies or factories here, they will also face this kind of problem. If you want them to work overtime, it is impossible. They will definitely leave when the time comes.

Fortunately, there are many people in the clan.

By around ten o'clock in the evening, Li Muyang had already found 20 people. He first gave each person a deposit of [-] yuan, so that everyone would be embarrassed if they didn't come the next day.

Otherwise, the loss of money is a trivial matter, but the absence of the person will affect his work progress, which is impossible to tolerate.

Li Muyang grasped the mainstream of the man's thinking.

The men here are more interested in saving face than making money.

Money can be lost, but face cannot be lost.

Sometimes you would rather lose a lot of money, or even lose no money at all, for the sake of face. This is also a bit different from people in the south.

Li Muyang discovered that there are some business bosses in the south. In order to make money, they can be humble, or voluntarily lower their status to do business with others.

Maybe in the eyes of these bosses, they can make money?Well, getting benefits is the core task. As for how much face is worth?Only when people have money can they have face. If you don't have money, who will take you seriously?

At around four o'clock the next morning, Li Muyang got up quickly and started preparing the basket. He had already purchased these things before, and was waiting for people to come over before going straight up the mountain.At five o'clock, everyone began to arrive one after another. First, they gathered in front of their house. Li Muyang asked Qinqin to steam steamed buns for everyone in advance. Each person got two hot buns and a bowl of hot porridge. Immediately after eating it I feel energetic.The people who were still a little dazed and staring now woke up.

Men are short-handed and soft-spoken.

Everyone came here to work. Now in the morning, they have prepared steamed buns and soup for so many people. They must have gotten up earlier than them and worked harder.

I feel more comfortable inside.

"Mu Sheep, let's work now. It's almost daylight now, so we should be able to see clearly. Work more while it's cool. I don't know if we can do it when it's hot in the afternoon."

Someone asked for it.

Others also responded one after another. Li Muyang saw that everyone had a more positive attitude and was very satisfied.

"Okay, let's set off now. Today we are mainly divided into three groups. I am leading a group of people here. This is Wang Tian, ​​eldest brother Wang. There is a group of people following him, and the last group is responsible for moving the peaches. Carrying. If so. Who among you will be responsible?
The crowd started to look left and right without saying a word. Then a young man suddenly stood up and said, "I'll come, I'll be responsible for carrying it."

Li Muyang took a look and saw that he was still his cousin, named Li Xiaodong, the son of his fourth uncle's family.

This guy has not been good at studying since he was a child, and he doesn't like farming. He always wants to find an opportunity to make a fortune.

However, he did make a small fortune in the end, as if he was running some kind of business.Li Muyang was not sure. Li Xiaodong went to the south to develop in a few years.

"Okay, Xiaodong, you will be our transport captain, and I will entrust you with this important mission."

"Don't worry, this kind of thing is easy. I promise to transport every peach to a fixed location for you."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

After the explanation, Li Muyang led a group of people towards the mountain.When he arrived at the gate of the fence, he stopped Mi Dama, Li Xiaodong and five others, and asked the other two teams to follow Wang Tianxiao directly in.

"Da Ma, wait a minute, you don't have to go anywhere, just show us the peaches here. After Xiaodong and his people transport the peaches, you are responsible for counting and keeping them for us. Remember to count the baskets. , you can count, right?"

"Yes, I will."

Midama said with a smile.

Over the past few months since he came to Li Muyang's house, his mood has become better and better, like a person who is never tired. You ask him to work, and he will stop if you stop.

She is also very happy and enthusiastic towards her family members, and she is particularly close to Yuan Rufeng.Every day he carried her off the kang, put her in a wheelchair and pushed her outside, and often chatted with her, but she fell in love with Yuan Rufeng.

He said that this kid was a bit stupid, but he had a kind heart, as good as gold. He wished he could make him his godson.

Li Muyang thought it would be good to have a godson. He brought Mi Dama from home, but he could no longer send it back.

In the past few months, it is true that family has not been better than family.

Likewise, Midama also had great trust in him.

Of course, Li Muyang arranged the rice and horses at the loading and unloading area. On the one hand, it is convenient for you to count them. Of course, he is also wary.

It doesn't mean that his cousin is more trustworthy than Midama. After all, this is his first time looking for these jobs.

How can I put it, he is still a little wary in his heart.

If there is any problem with these people, it will not only affect the batch of peaches, but also the long-term cooperative relationship with Wu Zhongshi.

People pull the peaches back to make cans, which is related to people's health, so there can't be any mistakes.

Of course he also hopes that he is judging a gentleman with a villain's heart, but he has to be cautious.

"Xiaodong, Da Ma is very familiar with peaches. If you have any questions, just ask him, or you can come to me. Remember to move here and put the peaches neatly without any bumps.

The car will not arrive until tomorrow. If it is not stored well today, part of it may be rotten by tomorrow. "

"Brother Shepherd, don't worry. I know this. If you bump into it even a little bit, you won't be able to let it go."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

After Li Muyang settled down, he stepped over the fence and led his team towards the destination.

After entering, he found that everyone was still observing the peaches and had not started working on them, so Li Muyang divided the work again.

"There are a total of 15 acres of peach orchard, divided into eight rows. Our two teams have exactly four rows each. After picking four rows, we can rest.

We still calculate the wages based on the whole day.

So this is a competition. If we want to rest early, we have to hurry up.

If you think it's too rushed, just finish it after dark, that's okay, just work slower.

We must be careful not to bump it when picking it. If there are scars, we will pick it out immediately and cannot put it in directly.A broken peach in a basket may cause other peaches to rot as well.

I want to emphasize this to everyone individually. It doesn’t matter if you bump into them. We have so many peaches. As long as it’s not intentional, it’s okay. Don’t hide it. "

"Brother Shepherd, don't worry, how could we do such a thing? If we come to work, we will do it well."

"Yes, Shepherd, what are you thinking about? How could we put the bad peach among the good ones? Isn't this embarrassing for you?

If you specifically come to us to do it, then you must be trusting us. We are all brothers. If you are looking for brothers, then you must be trusting the brothers. If we mess around with you, then it doesn’t matter! "

"That's good. Let's get started. Brother Wang, please teach us how to pick first.

Which peaches can not be picked temporarily, and the picking standards.

Okay, you guys over here, we'll start over there. "

"Row."

Wang Tianxiao is willing to be the captain today, which is what Li Muyang told him for a long time yesterday. Otherwise, with his character, no matter how hard he works, it would be absolutely impossible to be the captain.

He felt that he couldn't control people at all.

But Li Muyang thought this way. As Taoyuan grew bigger and bigger, it would definitely need some managers in the future.

If you don’t cultivate it now, you won’t be able to cultivate it later.

His requirements for management are simple.

Technology is one aspect, but more importantly, character and morality, you must be trustworthy.

Wang Tianxiao, a person who knows both technology and good character, is simply the most perfect manager.

Anyway, there is only so much in Taoyuan, and it is not like a big company. It is still very complicated. What kind of advanced knowledge is needed?
Regarding Taoyuan knowledge, Wang Tianxiao has already overflowed with it.
