On the way back, Song Dashan supported Li Mo's arm with one hand and Li Mo's waist with the other, carefully protecting her, as if Li Mo was a fragile porcelain doll.
Li Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and patted Song Dashan's arm to persuade him: "Dashan, don't be like this, I'm just pregnant and not sick, so I don't need to be so careful."
Song Dashan said, "Why don't you need to be careful? The doctor said, the fetus is unstable in the first three months, so be careful."
Li Mo sighed, and had already given up the idea of continuing to talk to Song Dashan. This man had just become so cautious after being agitated in the medical clinic. She had said several times not to be like this, but he just didn't want to listen.
Forget it, let him go.
When Li Mo and Song Dashan returned to the shop, Mrs. Qin was the first to greet her and asked eagerly, "How is it? Isn't it?"
Li Mo smiled and nodded.
Song Dashan grinned and said happily: "Sister-in-law Qin, Li Mo is pregnant and has a child!"
Sister-in-law Qin was also happy, and took Li Mo's hand and nodded, "Okay, okay, this is really good news, come in, you didn't eat anything just now, I'll make you something delicious, if you want to eat What do you tell sister-in-law, sister-in-law will do it for you."
Song Dashan remembered that Li Mo had vomited out all the contents of his stomach before, and said according to Sister-in-law Qin's words: "Yes, yes, you need to eat something, lady, what do you want to eat?"
Li Mo is actually not hungry at all, and doesn't really want to eat, so she shook her head, "I'm not too hungry, I don't want to eat anything now."
Sister-in-law Qin disagreed, "That's not okay, you don't want to eat it, the child in your stomach still wants to eat it, you must eat some. Sister-in-law knows that you may not have much appetite, how about this, sister-in-law will make you some sour noodle soup, sour , Pregnant women generally like to eat."
Li Mo rubbed her lower abdomen, thinking that she really had to eat, she nodded, "Okay, please trouble sister-in-law."
Qin's sister-in-law waved her hand, "What's the trouble, you go sit down and rest, I'll be fine soon." Then she went to the kitchen.
Song Dashan helped Li Mo into the room and sat down, "Do you want to sleep for a while?"
Li Mo shook her head, it's broad daylight, she can't sleep.
Song Dashan didn't force it, but said: "Even if you don't sleep, you have to have a good rest. Don't go to the front for a beauty treatment in the afternoon. Your body is important." After thinking about it, he said: "It's not today, and you can't be tired in the future , you have twin bodies now, you must not be like before."
Li Mo pursed her lips as she thought about the previous business.
The business ahead is not idle every day, and beauty can only be done by her alone. Although she just needs to sit and move her hands, it is tiring at the end of the day. She could not take it seriously before, but now that she has a child, she can no longer be as tired as before.
It seems that she has to rearrange.
The most important thing now is to recruit more people.
There are only three people busy in the store, it is not easy at all, everyone is full of things, and there is no time to do other things at all, now that she is pregnant again, the workload will definitely be greatly reduced, Song Dashan Now the mind is also on her, so the manpower in the store is definitely not enough.
Not only does she need to add manpower for other tasks, but she also needs someone to take over her beauty and make-up work. Otherwise, when she has no time to take care of her children, the business of this store will not be able to continue.
In fact, she had thought about the issue of taking on apprentices before, but firstly, there was no suitable candidate, and secondly, the shop had just started on the right track, and everything was still in chaos. On the agenda, until today, it is time to officially start to face up to this problem.
In fact, Li Mo has already planned to train Sister-in-law Qin to do makeup and beauty. The reason is that Sister-in-law Qin said that she will never marry again in this life, and she will only focus on raising tigers. Therefore, Sister-in-law Qin will not be burdened by her family in the future, and she will be willing. She has been working with her, so she doesn't have to worry about the beautician leaving for other reasons; moreover, Sister-in-law Qin is very young and has good hands, so she is very suitable for beautician.
Therefore, she only needs to recruit two more people to take over Sister-in-law Qin's previous job.
But the problem is, these two people are not easy to find. What she needs is a woman, and a woman who can stay in the shop wholeheartedly. There are many people in this world, but very few meet her conditions. I was lucky to find a sister-in-law Qin before, and it is rare to be suitable, but where can I find two more suitable ones like sister-in-law Qin
Li Mo fell into a headache.
"Dashan, is there any suitable person like Mrs. Qin in the village?" Even though she knew it was impossible, Li Mo still asked.
Song Dashan knew that Li Mo was thinking of recruiting people, and he also agreed to recruit two more people in the store, so that Li Mo could relax a lot. However, he no longer knows such a suitable candidate as Sister-in-law Qin, after all, most women cannot live without a family and a family. As for the town, he is not familiar with it, let alone find the right person.
Seeing Song Dashan shaking his head, Li Mo sighed and began to think carefully about where to find talents.
Song Dashan thought for a while and said, "Why don't we post a recruitment notice to see if there is any suitable one."
Li Mo shook her head, feeling that something was wrong. Someone must apply for the recruitment notice, but her shop involves too many secret recipes, such as balm and beauty products, which are all made by her. On the one hand, you need to be very careful, if you recruit someone with malicious intentions, it is easy to leak her production method.
And to keep the employees in the store from going wrong, besides recruiting someone like Mrs. Qin, there is another way, and that is the way Li Mo rejected before - buying people.
She didn't want to buy people before, because she felt that it was awkward to buy people like goods, so she found Mrs. Qin from the village, but now she couldn't do it. Now that she is pregnant, the shop is seriously overstaffed. Insufficient, it's time to increase the number of people. Finding people to buy people, and holding on to their contracts is actually the safest way at present.
Although it is a bit unaccustomed, but at present, it can only be like this.
Li Mo said to Song Dashan: "Dashan, it seems that we have to go to the dental shop to buy two people and come back."
Song Dashan immediately understood Li Mo's thoughts, thought for a while, and nodded, "It's true that there is no one like Sister-in-law Qin, so this is the only way to do it."
Li Mo looked at the time, it's not long after noon, it's still early, why not take advantage of today to see if there is any suitable candidate, and it will be easier to settle down early.
So, under Li Mo's hard work, Song Dashan had no choice but to promise Li Mo to accompany her for a walk to Ya after eating the sour noodle soup.
There is only one dental office in the town, not too far from the shop.
When Li Mo and Song Dashan walked in, a man in charge immediately came up to him and asked with a smile, "Master and Madam, do you want to buy someone? What kind of person do you want to buy? We have them here, and you must be satisfied with them." .”
Li Mo didn't speak in a hurry, but casually glanced at the toothbrush.
Not far away, a man in charge was leading a group of ragged people to the backyard. In the middle of the yard, there were several rows of people, including men, women, and children. At this time, a man was standing in front of them, as if I'm picking. This should be someone who came to Jamaica to buy.
Li Mo glanced around before answering the words of the person in charge: "We really want to buy someone, and we want to find two women who can work and be quicker."
The manager smiled and said: "The two come with me, we have a lot of people here, you can choose carefully." Then he brought Li Mo and Song Dashan to the group in the center and let them choose.
The man who had just selected someone had already been selected, and followed the manager to go through the formalities, while the rest stood there waiting to be selected.
Li Mo ignored the slight discomfort in her heart, and looked at these people in front of her seriously.
The people in front of them included men, women and children, the youngest seemed to be only five or six years old, and the oldest seemed to be fifty or sixty years old. I don't know how they got here.
However, Li Mo has no way to help these people out of sympathy. She only needs two women today, so she excludes all men.
Li Mo wants to find someone who sells snacks and tea in the leisure room, so she needs a woman who is good-looking, articulate, and able to settle accounts and collect money. This condition has eliminated most of the people, leaving only four suitable people.
The person in charge asked these four people to stand in front.
Li Mo asked the manager about the origins of these four women.
The manager saw that Li Mo didn't look like he was short of money, and he was naturally considerate in his service, so he carefully told Li Mo about the origins of these four people.
"This is a girl from a wealthy family in the city. She was sold by the head wife. It is said that she hooked up with the master." The manager pointed to the pretty good-looking woman who was about twenty years old and stood in the first place.
This woman had a similar experience to the original body, she was sold because she hooked up with the male master.
Li Mo took a closer look at this woman, she was indeed good-looking, with a good figure, she looked smart, but she didn't intend to have such a person because she was not safe, she dared not use her.
The person in charge pointed to the skinny woman who was standing in the second place and said, "This is because my family escaped from the flood in my hometown. If I couldn't survive, I sold myself as a slave."
Li Mo asked: "Is the whole family sold as slaves here? Who are there?"
The steward replied: "Her husband and two sons are still in our dental clinic."
When the woman saw Li Mo asking her, she probably had something to do, so she immediately knelt down and begged Li Mo: "Madam, our family is very hardworking, please buy us, we can do any job, please don't let our family separate people."
Seeing that the woman begged again, the steward stepped forward and kicked her, angrily said: "How many times have I said this, don't say this again, don't you listen!"
The woman was kicked to the ground, but she still got up and continued to beg for their family not to be separated.
Li Mo reckoned that this woman begged every buyer like this, and that's why no one bought her back.
However, Li Mo could understand her desire to be with her family, but she couldn't be such a good person. Because what she wants is a woman, but three of the family are men, but there are two children, so it is useless for her to buy them back.
Li Mo said sorry in her heart, and said to the manager who still wanted to do something: "Don't hit the manager, I'm in a hurry to pick someone, where is the third girl?"
The third one is a little girl about twelve or thirteen years old. Her hair is disheveled, her face is dirty and thin, but her face is still pretty. Her dark eyes turn around from time to time. She is a smart girl at first glance. A girl who hasn't been overwhelmed by life yet.
Seeing Li Mo asking this girl, the manager didn't bother with the woman just now, and hurriedly said: "This is also because of the disaster in my hometown, and was sold by the family for money, but..." The manager hesitated when he said this , but still hesitatingly said, "But this girl was sold with her grandma, and she also wants to be with her grandma, otherwise she won't want to leave even if she dies."
What the manager didn't say was that someone had taken a fancy to this girl before, but in the end, this girl also begged someone to buy her grandma, but when he didn't want it, she made a fuss about not wanting to leave, which made people not buy it in the end. They beat this girl severely, and even starved her a few times, but this girl is not afraid, and she will still ask for it next time.
Sure enough, in the next second, the girl looked at Li Mo with her big black and white eyes and said, "Madam, can you also buy my grandma, we can do a lot of work, she can't stay here as an old man , please madam."
Li Mo did not speak for a while, but continued to look at the last person, a young woman, but those eyes did not have the hope of belonging to a young man.
The person in charge said: "This tooth was sold to us by someone else, and it was transported from a far away place. Something happened when it was sold, and it finally arrived at our place. We don't know the specifics."
Li Mo nodded to express her understanding.
After the four of them finished watching, Li Mo thought about it carefully in her heart and made a decision in her heart, let's just let the third little girl.
Li Mo carefully asked the manager about the little girl, knowing that the girl's hometown is far away, and her family has already left, so she has nothing to worry about here. Who? I want to see."
The manager seemed to be interested in Li Mo, his eyes lit up, and he immediately pulled out an old woman from the crowd and brought him to Li Mo, "Ma'am, this old woman is the girl's grandma."
They didn't want this old woman at the beginning. After all, who would want to have this old woman? It would be a disadvantage to buy it. But the family seemed very unwilling to take the old woman to escape together, so they gave it to them for free without further ado, and only took the girl's money for selling herself, so they brought it back together thinking that they would not lose money.
But this old woman was really not easy to sell, many people didn't bother to ask, and he was scolded by the boss, it would be great if they could sell together this time.
Li Mo looked at the girl's grandmother who was brought to her, and found that she was not considered old, she was only in her fifties, her hair was only a little gray, but it was not surprising, in this era, children were born early, People from grandma's generation are actually not very old.
Li Mo asked the girl's grandmother, "Can you do the laundry, cook and clean?"
The old woman's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I can do everything, including washing, cooking, and taking care of the children. I am good at everything."
Li Mo originally planned to buy two people, one to sell snacks and tea in the lounge and maintain the order of the lounge, and the other to be responsible for washing, cooking and cleaning. The latter is an old woman who can do it, if Buy it together, just save trouble.
So in the end, Li Mo bought the girl and the old woman together for a total of five taels of silver, and brought them back to the shop.
Not only Ya Xing was happy, but the girl and the old woman were also very happy. They were extremely grateful to Li Mo for letting their grandparents stay together.
