I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

December 23rd, small year.

Every household has started to work and prepare for the new year.

Even most of the factories have stopped working at this time.

Making money is important, but working all year round without any rest will definitely make a person collapse.

Therefore, even if some bosses put forward the conditions of double wages for the New Year, those workers ignored them and chose to pick up the package and go home to prepare for the New Year.

In this time and space, in Nanjing, for the first time, China's unique rejuvenation tide appeared.

Those migrant workers from the countryside choose to walk home together on this day.

A few who made big money even hired horse-drawn carriages.

Most of the people who returned home had smiles on their faces.

Maybe they worked hard in the factory and suffered a lot of grievances.

However, working in a factory makes more money than farming at home. Therefore, in their opinion, all this is worth it, and they are naturally happy in their hearts.

"Erhu, how much did you earn this year?"

A fellow villager asked about Qin Erhu.

"Not much, not much."

Qin Erhu opened his mouth wide and responded with a smile.

No matter how others asked, he would not say anything.

A typical small peasant mentality, hiding wealth, afraid that others will know that he is rich, and afraid of being jealous.

"It's still hidden, you think we don't know, count the basic salary, plus the reward, you probably earned at least 12 taels this year."

Another, who also works at the steel mill, said.

Wages are transparent, as long as you count the hours worked.

"Wow, so many taels, then Erhu, you can marry a wife."

Everyone laughed, and then returned to Hexi Village.

At the entrance of the village, Qin Erhu met Qin Lin, who had not been able to go to the factory before.

However, this is no regret for Qin Lin now.

Because of the high yield and good quality of the peppers he grows, he also makes a lot of money.

After careful calculation, it is more than Qin Erhu.

Different options have good results.

In the words of later generations of experts, they have caught up with a good era, an era full of opportunities.

The two went back to their respective homes talking and laughing, and their parents no longer had the initial objection at this time, and they were more cordial.

Only his brother looked at them with more jealousy in his eyes.

"Brother Erhu, what is it like to work in the factory?"

Erhu, who returned to his hometown, suddenly became a role model for those young boys. They all came to Erhu to inquire about the situation, and wanted to follow him to work in the factory next year.

They couldn't learn Qin Lin's business of growing peppers because they couldn't find a sales channel.

"It's also a nine-to-five, which is more laborious than farming. You can take a breath when you are tired from farming. You can't rest when you work in a factory. If you rest alone, the entire assembly line has to slow down, and the boss will lose money. ."

Qin Erhu said.

Although what he said was terrifying, he couldn't dispel everyone's interest at all, because he made money.

Qin Erhu's family is already giving Qin Erhu a marriage ceremony, and the betrothal gift is very generous.

Anyone with a little brains knows that Qin Erhu made a lot of money in the factory.

As for a little bit of happiness and suffering, they are all rural children, who would be afraid of happiness and suffering?

What Qin Erhu did, of course they did too.

"Brother Erhu, can you take us there next year?"

Someone begged.

Not everyone has the guts to go out under unknown circumstances.

If Qin Erhu is an acquaintance with him, they will be more at ease.

"If you are not afraid of enduring hardships, come with me next year. But whether you can enter the factory depends on the bosses. But I heard that the scale will be expanded next year, and I must have more people."

Qin Erhu said.

This guarantee is enough. Many people said on the spot that they must go next year, and some people said that they would go home and discuss with their parents.

However, looking at the hot expressions on their faces, I am afraid that they will go if the family does not agree.

After all, they are all sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys. Men in this period are full of women.

But if you want a woman, you have to get married, and you have to have money to buy a betrothal gift.

Relying on farming takes too long. Moreover, the income from farming is up to my father, and the money I earn from working is my own.

For women, they are full of motivation, which is the driving force from genes.

Those who go to work make a lot of money, and those who farm at home are actually not too far behind.

In particular, the people who have planted two consecutive seasons of hybrid rice have directly doubled their income this year.

And some diligent people have already cultivated many acres of land during the winter.

These are all their lands, and they don't have to pay taxes.

The days to come are very worth looking forward to.

After dark, in a farmer's house, the four children had already slept, and the man's hand stretched into his wife's clothes.

"What do you want?"

the hostess asked.

"What do you say?"

The hostess smiled, and this silly smile was already equivalent to answering the question.

"Don't, haven't I said it before, I don't want to have any more children, I can't afford it."

said the hostess.

Although she also wanted that very much, but at the thought of being pregnant, she flinched again.

After all, it takes a lot of food to raise a child, and having too many children can easily lead to starvation.

She'd seen this sort of thing before, and not just together.

It is so sad to see my flesh and blood starved to death.

"I couldn't support it in the past, but it doesn't mean I can't support it in the future. The current grain output is so high, I will definitely support it. Next year, I will be fortunate enough to reclaim a few more acres of land, and there will be no problem with two more.

Moreover, the eldest and the second child are almost ten years old now, so they can go to the field to help. "

The host said that he had obviously calculated too.

"That doesn't work either. Didn't you listen to the new village chief? Knowledge changes fate, and the imperial court is providing free teaching. Next year, I will send the eldest and second child to the school, and I will be able to enjoy the first prize in the future when I get old. Have a good time."

The hostess said that she believed the words of the village chief.

The new village chief is a retired soldier. Three of his fingers were chopped off by a knife, and he can no longer join the army. After retiring, the court arranged for him to be the village head in the countryside.

A person like him who is a little cultural and very loyal to Dahua is the most suitable for managing grass-roots rural areas.

"Going to dream of your dreams, you still want to be the champion. Do you know how difficult it is to get the champion? Our entire township has only been awarded a jinshi in ten years, and it's still the champion."

The master was dissatisfied.

If his desires are not satisfied, he has no good temper.

"Even if you can't get the top spot, it's good to read some books and become a village mayor."

said the hostess.

"The village chief, the village chief, you never stopped talking about the village chief. I think you are interested in that village chief, right?"

said the master.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm really afraid of you. Come and come. You can't afford it when you were born, so let's see if I won't scold you to death."

In the end, the hostess chose to compromise.

The noise made the child next door, who was still asleep, puzzled.
