   Chapter 33 The owner is too generous

  Although it was getting late, almost no one in Chaoyun Grange slept. Everyone was busy in the Qinggang stone clearing in the center of the Grange, sorting out the wild vegetables, grass and leaves that were harvested today.

   "The weather is very dry, and there are not many wild vegetables and grasses. Our harvest today is a little too small. Compared with some villages outside, our movements are a little slow."

   "Unfortunately, there are too many monsters in the red-leaf forest. If we can enter the red-leaf forest, our harvest today can be doubled."

   "Compared to your life, the wild vegetables and leaves in the red-leaf forest are nothing, so don't think about it too much. I will work harder tomorrow, run a little farther, and dig more weeds and wild vegetables."

   "I heard that chicken loess can be eaten, why don't we get some chicken loess back tomorrow and try to eat it?"

  …

  The more than 1,000 tenants, except for the children, are basically distressed. Even some children are influenced by the people around them, and their faces are full of daze.

   Years of drought like this are rare once in decades, and many tenants have only experienced it once or twice in their lifetimes.

   Those dirty wild vegetables, weeds and leaves on the ground make people lose their appetite just by looking at them, but they are the hope of more than 1,000 tenants in Chaoyun Grange to survive this year.

   Even this kind of bad food is not easy to collect. Thinking that when the earth was a descendant of Yan and Huang, ordinary people could live a good life, and Song Ankang was also a little silent.

  Although Song Ankang has become a lot more selfish after he died once, and he is afraid of dying a lot, but the goodness still exists in his heart. Seeing his tenants so poor, Song Ankang feels uncomfortable in his heart.

  Fortunately, Song Ankang has brought back the hope of survival. As long as there are no accidents, all the tenants of Chaoyun Grange will not only be able to successfully complete the tax payment this year, but even live an unprecedented good life.

   "Steward Wang, Steward Hao, come with me!"

  Song Ankang called out Wang Yuliang and Hao Jiyong who were busy and walked towards the small courtyard where they lived.

  The small courtyard is called Chaoyun courtyard. It covers an area of ​​nearly 1,000 square meters. There are flower beds, rockeries and ponds in it. It looks quite elegant.

   After getting off the carriage, Song Ankang helped Qiu Shi and Jiang Yunhe take down the things on the carriage. After cleaning up, Wang Yuliang and Hao Jiyong also washed the dust off their bodies and came to Chaoyun Courtyard.

   Qiushi put a few cups of tea on the stone table and retreated behind Song Ankang.

  Song Ankang put the agreement signed with Huachuntang in front of Wang Yuliang and Hao Jiyong: "Look at it."

  As the housekeeper of Chaoyun Grange, Wang Yuliang is literate, and his knowledge level is not low. Although Hao Jiyong is an ordinary tenant, he is quite self-motivated. He has taught himself to read and write.

   Looking at the agreement in front of them, the two of them were stunned for a moment, and then they looked at it carefully, but after looking at it, although the two had happy expressions on their faces, they were also worried.

   "What do you want to say?" Song Ankang said with a smile: "You can speak freely. After all, this matter is very important. If it is handled improperly, it is very likely that we will fall into a more difficult situation for Chaoyun Tianzhuang."

Wang Yuliang frowned and said, "Although this may allow us to get out of the predicament of Chaoyun Tianzhuang, but... but it is not an easy task to process the medicinal materials to a level that allows the pharmacist to directly refine the pills. I am afraid that I will not be able to make ends meet at the time, and once I can’t make it, I am afraid the consequences will be worrying.”

"That's what I mean too." Hao Jiyong nodded: "The several medicinal materials selected by the village owner for further processing are relatively simple, but they are still a bit complicated for ordinary people, and no one in our farm has done it. This kind of thing, at first, I was afraid that it would be very difficult to succeed.”

Song Ankang smiled and said: "Don't worry about this, if I'm not sure, I won't sign this agreement. The deep processing of these several medicinal materials is not difficult for me, and I can even reach the level of familiarity very soon. to teach others."

"We can choose some ingenious and smart people to follow me to learn, and if they can successfully graduate, we can extend it to more tenants. There are more than 1,000 people in Chaoyun Grange, can't we find ten A wise and ingenious person?"

   "Since the owner has thought about it, we can give it a try." Hao Jiyong said immediately.

  Wang Yuliang looked worried, but looking at the signed agreement, he nodded and said, "Then...then let's try it."

Song Ankang said: "In the past two days, I will first master the methods and skills of deep processing of these several medicinal materials. You choose ten ingenious people in the whole farm to learn from me, and tell them by the way that they do not need compensation if they fail, but If they can succeed, they can get 10% of the processing fee.”

"Ah..." Wang Yuliang was astonished: "With so many, I think half of it is more than half of it, and there is no need to take responsibility for failures. Who doesn't want to do things that pay processing fees for nothing, and there is not much farm work in the farm recently, this is extra income. Just give them whatever you want, even if you don't give them, you won't dare to say anything, after all, they are tenants of Chaoyun Grange."

   Hao Jiyong also showed a look of consternation: "Steward Wang is right, this is too much. Everyone is tenants of the farm, and they are obliged to help the farm to do some extra things."

"If you pay, you will gain, not to mention that I have already taken 90%." Song Ankang said with a smile: "And only in this way can we arouse everyone's enthusiasm and allow more people to devote themselves to the processing of medicinal materials. can earn more.”

   "Besides, I did this to help everyone get through the difficulties. Instead of waiting for the profit to be distributed to everyone according to their own wishes, it is better to stipulate the share from the beginning, so that everyone will have motivation."

   Wang Yuliang saluted Song Ankang and said, "The owner of the village is kind. With such a high processing fee, 10% of the profit is not a small figure, not to mention that the owner also bears the cost of destroying the medicinal materials."

   "Don't worry, the owner, I will supervise them in the future, so that they don't damage the medicinal materials as much as possible." Hao Jiyong also said condensedly.

  Song Ankang waved his hand: "At the beginning, everyone was unskilled, and it is normal to destroy medicinal materials. Don't be too harsh, as long as we can make a profit in the end."

   "Of course, if someone deliberately damages the medicinal materials, or does not work well, their corresponding qualifications will be disqualified, so that they cannot earn this extra income."

  Wang Yuliang sneered: "The owner of the village is so generous to them. If there are still people who don't want to repay their gratitude, don't blame us for driving him out of Chaoyun Farm."
