After the Spring Festival, the weather is getting warmer, but there is not much work that can be done in the fields in L County. To do more is to apply spring fertilizer to the rapeseed and plant a few vegetables. The real busy season will be in April and May after the spring equinox. went.
At this time in previous years, people mainly went out to work. This year, because Lin Mo wanted to reclaim the 400 acres of barren hills, most of the people in Qingtong Village stayed in the village and continued to reclaim the wasteland. Years ago, the barren trees and weeds on the barren hills had already been felled quickly. As soon as the new year was over, Lin Mo asked Lin Hai to help him introduce many bulldozers and excavators to flatten the barren hills and dig up the jagged rocks. These stones are then transported to the quarry by car, and the money sold is equivalent to the gas price of the car.
The villagers are mainly responsible for pushing the land pushed by the bulldozers, leveling it manually, filling up the pits, and digging up the mounds. After day after day of development, they can gradually see the shadow of good land. There are also many people in the village who are envious, but there is absolutely no envy. They know how much money the Lin family has invested in it. Not only are many people not jealous, but they also feel that the Lin family is messing around, throwing so much money into a barren mountain, it is better to save it for two lifetimes. Just growing à la carte, not to mention thirty years, I'm afraid it won't be able to pay back the cost of planting for fifty years!
People probably have some kind of subtle bad nature, they always subconsciously hope that some people who jump on top of their heads overnight will be unlucky, maybe the villagers of Qingtong Village didn't think so far, there are indeed some people who secretly hope that the Lin family can continue to This barren hill that 'can't return to its origin' has been developed, and some people sincerely hope that the Lin family can make money. For this reason, almost everyone has worked very hard.
Even so, it is really not a small project to turn 400 acres of rocky barren hills into fertile fields. Even if so many people work at sunrise every day, it will not be completed until May or June at the earliest. And even if it is completed, it is just sorting out the foundation of the field, and there is still a long way to go to the good land.
Lin Jian studied abroad, and his eyes were broadened. He may not have understood Lin Mo's approach before, but now he supports it very much. The old lady has been farming all her life and knows best how to improve the soil. First of all, manure alone is not enough, and the soil needs to be loosened. Among poultry and livestock, chickens are the favorite to plan food. At the same time, chicken manure has the best fertilizer effect. After discussing with Lin Mo and his son, the old lady sprinkled grass seeds on the land that had already been opened up, and raised more than a hundred chickens. When the chickens grew up, more places were dug out, and then gradually expanded the breeding scale. The raised chickens are sold in hot pot restaurants, and they serve multiple purposes.
The old lady's idea was beyond Lin Mo's expectations. After a discussion, the family further improved her proposal and decided to do what the old lady said.
Originally, the old lady wanted to feed the chickens by herself, but Lin Jian didn't want her to suffer, so he proposed to pay for someone.
The candidate is a "five-guarantee household" in the village, named Wang Shuan, who is very honest and responsible. When he was young, his right hand was injured and half of his palm was cut off by a machine. In the blink of an eye, his eccentric old mother passed away, and his brothers had their own lives to live. Pity him for a man in his forties who didn't even have a wife. He slept in a mud-brick house, and he didn't dare to live at home when it rained heavily. , I was afraid that the wall would collapse and kill him inside. In the village, whenever he was mentioned, everyone shook their heads and said he was a poor man.
Wang Shuan knew that this was what he was going to do in his life, so don't expect too much from his wife and children. Of course, he wasn't so stupid that he couldn't be saved. Although his palm was injured, his body is still strong. He often went to the construction site to pick mortar during the slack, and saved a lot of pension money for himself. After closing the door, he lived a pretty good life alone.
When Lin Jian came to his door, he was very surprised. After hearing Lin Jian's requirements and treatment, he didn't have the slightest opinion.
Isn't it raising chickens? Can he raise her for half his life? Even if there is chicken disease for prevention or something, wouldn't he still be able to learn it
Watching a group of chicks with a guaranteed salary of 500 yuan a month, as long as the number of chicken deaths per month is guaranteed to be within a certain standard, there will be an additional bonus ranging from 50 to 300 yuan. When the chickens grow up to be slaughtered, Depending on the quality of each chicken, an extra 50 cents to 1 yuan will be given as a commission. At that time, if a hen lays eggs, there will be corresponding bonuses. In addition, the Lin family also provides housing.
Although it was just for the convenience of watching and raising chickens, it was a real brick house, and he no longer had to worry about being crushed to death at home by swollen mud bricks.
Wang Shuan signed a labor contract with Lin Jian almost without any hesitation. From sowing grass seeds to building a simple wire fence, Wang Shuan did everything by himself.
After the barren hills are developed, some managers are bound to be needed, and these people must live on the hills. Lin Mo simply took advantage of the fact that the management of the homestead is not particularly strict now, and asked Lin Changqing to help put down a piece of the homestead. After the approval was completed, a three-story building was directly built on the mountain. There were more than 20 rooms, including kitchens, bathrooms, warehouses, and utility rooms. The house was built better than many households in the village.
Wang Shuan just looked at the bricks that were piled up every day, and he was full of energy, wishing to move in immediately.
In addition to repairing the house, a special chicken farm has also been set up. Once the chicken farm is filled with chickens, the smell will be very strong, but if the chickens are stocked and cleaned frequently, the problem is not too big. Therefore, the chicken farm was built 100 meters away from the staff dormitory. Standing on the upper floor of the staff dormitory, you can have a panoramic view of the whole chicken farm. If you tie two dogs, you will not be afraid of chicken thieves. .
For the development of the barren hills, Lin Jian almost handed over to Lin Changqing to help manage it. Lin Changqing was also idle when he was idle. He treated his son as a favor and earned some fame. There has never been any trouble in the barren mountain.
After the Chinese New Year, Lin Jian and Lin Mo went to the labor market in the county and recruited more than 30 workers. Some are experienced and some are inexperienced. Dunzi and the chef are handed over to Cheng Hong for assessment.
The twenty waitresses need to be in good shape, good looking, good in Mandarin, and Lin Dongmei will train them before taking up the job. Lin Dongmei didn't have an idle day this Spring Festival, and was thrown by Lin Mo to the Jincheng Etiquette Training Institute with pay for nearly a month. After she came out, her whole temperament changed drastically. There's more than enough to fuck these fresh out of high school girls.
Vegetable washers, dishwashers, and cleaners are required to be diligent, nimble, and meticulous in their work. Once they are found to be stealing, cheating, cheating, and cutting corners, they will be fired immediately and will never be employed.
The Lin family dared to put forward so many demands so forcefully, because they offered wages that were half higher than those of their peers, as well as various benefits that their peers did not have at all. As long as they passed the recruitment process and heard the treatment offered by the Lin family, no one was willing to leave. The only thing they worry about is that they are not doing well enough and losing the golden job that they hold in front of them.
From recruitment to final adjudication, this process was almost entirely decided by Lin Jian alone. Lin Mo was surprised to find that his father had done a lot better than he imagined. Only then did he know that when his father was in the United States, Han Xun specially hired someone to teach him.
Han Xiaoren complacently asked for many "rewards" from Lin Mo. He was unhappy for two days and had to go back to the capital because of the company's business. He made up his mind to go back this time not only to find medicinal materials for Lin Mo to recuperate his body, but also to find him a way to exercise his body. Otherwise, if he can see, touch, kiss, or eat as he is now, he will get sick sooner or later.
Although Han Xun left, the phone calls between the two have never been disconnected. In addition, the Lin family has now installed a landline. Under Han Xun's strong suggestion, an extension phone was installed in Lin Mo's room. It is more convenient for the two to communicate. Although they can't see each other, the sense of distance is not strong. The only downside is that Lin Mo is always worried that other people in the family will accidentally overhear his phone calls, so he repeatedly ordered Han Xun not to talk on the phone. Fortunately, Han Xun cooperated very sensibly, and there has been no trouble.
Lin Mo and his son made intensive preparations until the 28th day of the first lunar month, March 15th in the Gregorian calendar, when everything was ready for the official opening.
Before the opening, Lin Mo invited Lao Du, Principal Pang, and Lin Hai in advance, and asked them to invite more friends over. On this day, there will be a big reward for the opening, and all consumption will be free, which is right as a publicity. Externally, Lin Jian advertised on the county TV station half a month in advance. Brainwashing advertising strategy is adopted, and one-sentence advertisements are inserted in rotation every day-"Which is the best hot pot in L County?" The deafening shouting questions from women, young and old, and the background of exquisite dishes, as long as people watching TV, subconsciously produce Such doubts, while at the same time creating a strong appetite for the beautiful side dishes on the background. There was no change in the first ten days of the advertisement, and it was not until five days before the opening that it turned into a countdown to the reveal, and almost everyone's appetite was hooked.
It wasn’t until the day before the opening that the mystery was revealed that the advertisement turned into frames of exquisite environmental pictures and attractive food pictures, which were attractive enough just to look at them. The 20% discount for the opening lasted for half a month, which attracted many people. Heartbroken. County TV stations are usually only received by neighboring counties. After the advertisement was broadcast, many people in neighboring counties and cities of County L were tempted to move.
The people from S Province are delicious, and the people from L County are notoriously delicious. After the advertising idea stolen by Lin Mo received the expected effect, he specially made sufficient preparations for the opening. But when it really came to the opening day, the scene was still a bit unexpected.
