Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 778 arrangement

Jiang Xinyu laughed, "Master Shang, you know we’re just trying to make a living, right? Why not make it comfortable for ourselves? I don’t have any grand ambitions."

"Good, that’s very good. I didn’t expect someone so young to think so thoroughly."

"Haha, you’re praising me. I’m just a person without big ambitions."

After listening to the story, everyone went to rest.

The next day, Wei Kaiyun went to find Li Yungui, "Village Chief Li, why not gather all the officials together? I have something to say."

"What is it?"

"It’s about labor at the pesticide factory."

"Alright, you go wait for me at the brigade headquarters, I’ll gather them together."

Wei Kaiyun went directly to the brigade headquarters; the door was still locked, so he waited at the side.

After a quarter of an hour, the six officials of Li Family Village all arrived.

Everyone exchanged pleasantries and entered the room.

"I called everyone here today about my brother working at the pesticide factory. Previously, I had a simplistic view. These days, families are separating, so my brothers won’t participate in production."

Li Yungui felt a bit embarrassed, as the pesticide factory was all prepared by Wei Kaiyun, and the technique is his, which is the most crucial part.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Xiao Wei, I agreed with you initially, this makes us feel bad."

Wei Kaiyun smiled, "No need to worry, I’ll share my opinion. First, I’m still not in favor of young people doing this. Daily interactions are fine, but production can inevitably lead to skin contact, which can harm the body.

Second, I think we should work directly for two or three months, then stop when it’s time for spring planting, so it doesn’t delay farming.

Third, I’d like Chaoyang and Xiang Dong to go out with me for purchasing and sales channels.

My brothers will follow Chaoyang and Xiang Dong since counting on just the two of them isn’t practical.

I don’t know how the village plans to distribute wages, but my brothers will have a monthly salary of twenty-five dollars, and of course, travel expenses will be reimbursed.

However, if they don’t succeed in sales, they’ll be fired after three months.

Fourth, since they built the factory dorms, I feel they shouldn’t be paid wages but instead be given the four rooms to live in with a fenced-in courtyard.

Of course, their wages will be issued when they start going out for sales or purchases.

No wages during production for them.

Everyone can discuss this."

Truth be told, these people had their own agendas, wanting to see the world, but upon hearing that not selling in three months would mean being fired, they dropped the idea.

"Village Chief Li, you and the officials discuss it and let me know. I’ll head back first. You can find me at the pesticide factory. Today they’re installing glass."

"Alright, Xiao Wei, you go ahead and do your work. Once we have a result, I’ll let you know."

After Wei Kaiyun left, Li Yunqiang expressed his opinion first, "I agree with all of Xiao Wei’s points. Let’s not even talk about how much he’s helped us; his requests are reasonable. Also, giving him the four rooms isn’t excessive; I saw Xiao Wei and Old Yang pay those four tile workers, but they didn’t mention it, and we shouldn’t pretend we don’t know.

Moreover, even if these houses are given to them, they can’t take them away. They’re still here. I think Xiao Wei wants his brothers to be satisfied, considering they’ve been working for over a month without pay or credits. Giving them the houses is reasonable."

Li Yungui nodded, "I also agree with Xiao Wei’s words. Let me first clarify; it’s not because Xiao Wei has taken our two children that we agree to eat the same.

This job can be done by capable people in the future.

Previously, many kids followed Xiao Wei, and he chose Chaoyang and Xiang Dong. Xiao Wei is considered their mentor.

We’re the same; only when you find someone worthy of teaching sincerely."

The remaining four thought, "Doesn’t that mean our own family can also go out for purchasing or sales?"

"We don’t know yet. The first year, next year, we’re unsure how much we can sell. Later, if sales open up, I think relying on just those ten-plus people won’t be sufficient. Xiao Wei mentioned spreading pesticide sales nationwide."

At this point, the remaining four got excited, selling across the country—what a concept? It’s better to wait and see. If our family members can’t sell and end up being fired, that would be a problem.

Li Cunshan actually had no comments. His family had separated long ago. His son came looking, but only wanted to be a worker, not ambitious.

He knew with their level, just recognizing some words, going out wasn’t feasible, afraid of being deceived by others.

"I agree too."

The remaining three thought it over and nodded in agreement.

Thus, the issue was resolved. This arrangement did not harm the village people. These days, Li Yungui presided over separating families, no fewer than ten wanting to work, but definitely not their families. Xiao Wei mentioned more than once that it’s toxic.

Big Brother once said too, it’s better not to get involved in this matter, considering Chaoyang and Xiang Dong’s jobs would surely make everyone envious.

"Since that’s the case, let’s go find Xiao Wei together. About those remaining six rooms, I’m thinking they’re of no use; let’s brew wine there this year."

"Brewing wine sounds good. The supply and marketing agency will definitely take it."

"But we don’t yet know how the wine will turn out?"

So everyone would have something to do, and there wouldn’t be any dissatisfaction.

The six of them went to the pesticide factory together and saw them setting up the stove.

"Xiao Wei, are you preparing to burn coal?"

"Hmm, there’s no way to use the big stove, so we can only light the stove."

"Can you get coal?"

"I can, but the quantity won’t be much." Did no one realize when his family unloaded coal? Anyway, Wei Kaiyun wouldn’t explain.

"Xiao Wei, we discussed and agreed with what you said."

"Good, that’s settled. Have them take advantage of the time to quickly build the courtyard walls."

After sending off the six village officials, Wei Kaiyun told them his decision, "I don’t want you to participate in production. You’re all still young, and I’m afraid it might not be good for your health. Plus, letting you go out to sell sets a path for the future. There’s a lot of news outside."

These twelve people had been following Old Yang for years, and naturally knew that going out was much better than working here.

"Brother Wei, we’ll follow your lead."

"Alright, I can see there’s still earth bricks left. If not enough, make them yourself."
