Chapter 391
"Short of people, very short of people!"
"Wan Ping'an built a large greenhouse and needs a lot of people to work."
Shazhu nodded.
Slap!
Before he could finish speaking, he was knocked to the ground by a large slap.
The one who struck was He Daqing.
"Get home, where do you have a say here?"
He Daqing was very annoyed.
Did Shazhu have no brain?
The six acres of land belonged to Wan Ping'an, so the business of the six acres of land was Wan Ping'an's business.
Yi Zhonghai asking about the six acres of land clearly had no good intentions.
If Shazhu were even a little bit smarter, he should have been vague, either not saying anything or changing the subject. Who told him to tell the truth?
Wasn't this looking for trouble for Wan Ping'an?
"Haha, big fool!"
Xu Damao looked down on Shazhu; how could he be so stupid?
"Old He, this is where you're wrong. Shazhu is already so old, why are you still hitting him?"
Yi Zhonghai was very proud.
Shazhu didn't let him down.
He had gotten the result he wanted.
"Shut up, you don't even have children, what qualifications do you have to instruct me on how to teach children?"
"If you have the ability, give birth to one."
"If you don't have the ability to give birth, shut up!"
He Daqing was very annoyed and didn't speak politely at all.
Yi Zhonghai's eyes widened instantly. He was most sensitive about others bringing up children; not having children was the greatest pain of his life.
He could basically determine that it wasn't his problem, it must be Yi Dama's problem; one of them definitely couldn't give birth.
He would probably never have children in this life.
But he didn't dare go to the hospital for a check-up.
If Yi Dama had a problem, of course, everyone would be happy, but what if it was his problem?
He could only secretly guide public opinion, making people think Yi Dama couldn't give birth, casting dirt on her head, and incidentally establishing his own persona as a good man!
Boom!
Everyone was very cooperative, and laughter rang out in one piece!
Yi Dama's eyes turned red, and she turned and left.
She could leave.
Yi Zhonghai couldn't leave.
He was the First Elder and had to stay to continue presiding over the meeting.
"Shazhu, wait a moment."
"It seems your work is too easy. I'm announcing a decision."
"Starting tomorrow, you go to the six acres of land an hour earlier in the morning and come back an hour later in the evening. Uncle He, what do you think?"
Wan Ping'an wouldn't let Shazhu off.
"I think it's very good."
"Shazhu, did you hear that?"
"Starting tomorrow, go an hour earlier in the morning and come back an hour later in the evening."
He Daqing didn't object.
"Haha, Shazhu, you're going to suffer!"
Xu Damao gloated.
"Dad, an hour earlier in the morning and an hour later in the evening, he wants to work me to death, how can you agree?"
Shazhu protested.
"This is what you brought on yourself. If you're not willing, get out of the He family, and hurry up and get back!"
He Daqing ignored Shazhu's protest.
Shazhu looked at Yi Zhonghai with resentment; he had been cheated by Yi Zhonghai.
"Daqing..."
The deaf old lady wanted to speak up to help.
"Old Lady, I'm educating my son, don't interfere."
He Daqing didn't give the deaf old lady face either.
The courtyard-wide assembly continued.
"Ping'an, you are a member of our Sihe Academy."
"Since you need a large amount of labor and are using outsiders, why not use your own people?"
"Look at how many people in the courtyard don't have jobs. Can't you help arrange something for them?"
Yi Zhonghai looked at Wan Ping'an triumphantly.
He shifted the pressure onto Wan Ping'an.
If Wan Ping'an arranged jobs for people in the courtyard, anyone working under him who was even slightly dissatisfied would definitely speak ill of him.
If he didn't arrange jobs for people in the courtyard, the resentment in the courtyard would be even greater.
Whether he arranged it or not.
Wan Ping'an wouldn't get any benefits.
This was the deaf old lady's scheme; Yi Zhonghai was just an executor.
"No problem, of course no problem!"
"You all know I'm a farmer. Working under me means doing farm work. You have to be mentally prepared; it's all dirty and tiring work."
"As for wages, don't worry. Whatever the state stipulates, that's what it is. I won't give a cent less."
Wan Ping'an stated his position.
Isn't it just arranging jobs for them?
Arranged!
Working under him meant they were his people and had to listen to his arrangements. He had ten thousand ways to make his subordinates obedient.
He wasn't worried at all!
"Ping'an, what you said isn't right."
"We are all neighbors living in the same courtyard, how can you treat them the same as outsiders?"
"You can't learn from those black-hearted capitalists and exploit the people in the courtyard!"
Yi Zhonghai criticized Wan Ping'an.
By helping the people in the courtyard ask for high wages, the people in the courtyard would definitely remember his kindness and be grateful to him!
Slap!
Wan Ping'an slapped his thigh.
"First Elder is right, I've awakened. I thank First Elder. How could I be a capitalist?"
"If I let you help me work and help me make money, wouldn't I be a capitalist?"
"I can't be a capitalist, I'm not hiring anymore!"
Wan Ping'an smiled.
Yi Zhonghai really was a great person, taking the initiative to provide him with an excuse. If he didn't take advantage of the situation, wouldn't he be letting Yi Zhonghai down?
Instantly!
Everyone was stunned.
Just a moment ago, Wan Ping'an had promised to hire, and in the blink of an eye, he wasn't hiring anymore!
"I'm going home to reflect!"
Wan Ping'an said and turned to leave. ===== CHAPTER 393 =====
