Chapter 1249

~8 min read 1,428 words

Ah?

Such expensive milk for myself?!

As a mother with traditional values, Liu Liu had never thought of keeping good things for herself!

But once the indifferent girl said that, everyone at the table was nodding:

"Yeah, Liu Jie, you look a bit weak..."

"Yes, yes, yes, having a baby is very damaging to the mother's body. You might be overdrawn inside; why not prioritize yourself first?"

"Hmm, I think so too—although I'm a man, I think your child is already drinking formula and eating baby food, so there's no big difference from other children's lives."

"So the top priority is to take good care of your own body—when buying insurance, you prioritize the person with the highest income in the family. Your family relies entirely on you, so your body is the most valuable asset."

This left Liu Liu dazed.

She could feel that her body was deficient, but the child...

"It's just Da Feng and me in the back kitchen; my wife won't be able to come over until next month, so we can't manage with so few people."

Master Jiang had wanted to say this for a long time, but the canteen was a big deal, and he had held it in until he had observed the people well.

The colleagues brought a mental shock to Song Tan.

Master Jiang hadn't experienced this schedule last year, so he looked at the kitchen and immediately took out his phone: "I have to get a small air conditioner installed quickly..."

"You need to supplement with fish oil, buy one with high purity, and I'll recommend a brand to you later. You must have a multivitamin, as well as calcium and trace elements, but just buy a comprehensive tablet for those two—women lose a lot of calcium when having babies."

Everyone was eating breakfast lively, brushing their phones to compare coupons and discounts from several platforms, and within two minutes, they placed their orders, their movements nimble and smooth.

"You have to pay attention if your body feels numb! It's a precursor to a heart attack! Come, come, let me recommend something for your heart..."

And after He Lanwei finished making breakfast, seeing Liu Liu and the others helping to move things, she strolled down the mountain.

But...

"When the livestream first started, some people even took it for testing, complaining that what you sold was expensive!"

In the blink of an eye, she saw a large group of villagers walking over to the canteen entrance:

She looked at the round-eyed girl: "You're still so young, and you're already eating these?"

"I told you guys earlier to pay attention to the time when working, come to eat at 7:30... why are you dragging it out again!"

"If that's the case, don't buy this 50-yuan milk; exchange the money for nutritional tablets! It averages out to 300 yuan a month."

To be honest, he was quite busy this month. If it weren't for the canteen adding so much equipment, he wouldn't have been able to handle it.

"If having two more security guards isn't a problem, you should recruit two more, and now transfer two over to help me out."

She was just about to say something, but she saw everyone had already gathered around:

"About that security guard... why don't you recruit a few more people?"

"When they're free, let them patrol, and when they're busy, they can go back to the back kitchen... If they really have ambition, I can teach them some barbecue skills, and they won't lose out."

"I'm an old fan who has been following since the beginning. To be honest, my family has some money, and I've probably tried all the good things—but yours is really different."

"Just like Manager Zhang said, there are many opportunities to make money on the night shift at the end of the month. If you don't spend this 1200 to nourish your body, how are you going to earn 4500?"

"That's the most basic thing; don't save money on this, just eat it first."

"Yes, it was delayed, it was delayed... remember tomorrow! I'll set an alarm tomorrow!"

Song Tan was dazed while holding the child—why, just by eating breakfast, did she suddenly need to supplement so much?

She wasn't hesitant at all: "Okay, I'll ask Liu Liu at noon to see what he arranges—who do you want to designate? Tell me first."

"Don't come in wearing boots! Look at the mud on your boots."

"Of course, our consumption habits are different, I'm not saying that. I mainly want to advise you that spending this 50 yuan is not the same as buying a box of milk."

But... it seems quite reasonable.

"Aren't you going to tidy up the vegetable fields on the mountain today? The tea-picking employees will have to come to eat next month, right? Later on, there will be corn, melons, fruits, and rice... all in all, plus the vegetable pickers, there will be an average of twenty or thirty more people a day than now, right?"

"Is there not enough manpower for patrolling the mountain?" That shouldn't be! She heard Liu Liu say yesterday that the shifts were still a bit free.

"I put my hoe by the door, you guys wait a moment, don't take the wrong one..."

And over there, after everyone finished breakfast, He Lan was still struggling while staring at the three hundred yuan worth of nutritional supplements in the shopping cart.

Although he was no longer a chef at a famous hotel, his words were still highly valued. Master Jiang strolled up the mountain, feeling beautiful inside.

"Master Jiang, you'll have a hard time when you start working in August or September... there will be several meals a day by then."

As a veteran insomnia patient, Nian Xu had eaten everything, and at that moment he was counting on his fingers, speaking logically:

But now that a dozen more employees had arrived, he would be exhausted if he kept holding it in:

Master Jiang was instantly happy: "Okay! Then I'll go back and ask for their opinions first!"

Nian Xu still advised: "Sister, I'm not bragging about Qiaoqiao's things, they are really different!"

During the busy farming season, the weather is hot, and it's very likely that breakfast will be at five o'clock, and they will come back to eat another meal after finishing work at nine o'clock. They will eat again at 3:00 PM, and start working after eating at four or five o'clock...

He Lan: "..."Why are you all so unhesitant?"

Chen Yuan:???

Her hesitation and conflict were visible to the naked eye, and everyone could more or less understand this kind of economic distress and the habit of subconsciously ignoring herself.

"It's only one-thirty, we haven't worked much in the fields yet..."

"I think 50 yuan for 500ml of milk is very expensive, but in the livestream room, it would be snatched up in a minute—"

As he spoke, Nian Xu realized he had become a Qiaoqiao fan again and quickly pulled the topic back.

"The security manpower is enough for now, recruiting people slowly won't have an impact."

"No." He Lanwei was a bit embarrassed: "There are a few young men who always help in the kitchen, I noticed they are quite meticulous... cough... about that, what if we give them to our back kitchen?"

"And," she giggled: "We young people today are very bitter, we work hard to make money, so let's be a little better to ourselves!"

"Do you really know these things? Then quickly recommend one to me? I often feel my body go numb at night, my heart pounding, and chest tightness..."

They were very diligent now; even if they weren't working the night shift, they would move firewood, transport coal, or help in the back kitchen after training during the day; in short, they were never idle.

"You have to eat them!" The girl said as a matter of course: "I don't know if they are useful, but after eating them, there will be a psychological suggestion that they are useful, and psychological suggestion can also be reflected in the body to a certain extent."

The number of people eating in the canteen was indeed increasing, and Chen Yuan felt a bit embarrassed: "I hadn't thought of that before."

Everyone shouted lively, and Master Jiang heard everyone yelling just as he went up the mountain, feeling depressed:

Going down the mountain was nothing else but to chat with Chen Yuan—

"Master Jiang, what's good for breakfast this morning?"
